Chapter 121: The Skyreach Group New Year Gala

The grand banquet hall gleamed with a warm glow of gold and sparkling crystal. Soft, elegant melodies floated gently through the expansive space, their notes reverberating off the towering ceilings. The magnificent chandelier overhead cast a radiant light, illuminating every corner with a dazzling brilliance. Guests mingled in small clusters, their voices a mixture of laughter, animated chatter, and whispered speculation about the astonishing ascent of this newly minted corporate giant.

Karina, Ryan, and Wayne navigated the crowd with practiced ease, each holding a glass of champagne as they exchanged warm greetings and heartfelt thanks. The rapid rise of Skyreach Group was no small feat, and it owed much to the steadfast support of these allies and friends who had stood by them through thick and thin.

“Congratulations! It’s incredible how fast your company has grown in such a short span,” one guest remarked with genuine admiration.

Ryan returned the compliment with a modest smile. “Thank you. We truly couldn’t have done it without Mr. Brook’s invaluable support.”

Just then, a discreet staff member approached Ryan and leaned in quietly, whispering, “It’s time.”

Glancing at his watch, Ryan nodded and made his way toward the stage with calm determination.

The murmurs gradually faded as the crowd settled into an expectant silence.

Under the spotlight, Ryan stood tall in a perfectly tailored suit. His smile was steady, composed—there was no hint of the desperate man who once found himself trapped in a dark alley. Now, he radiated poise and quiet confidence.

“Good evening, everyone,” Ryan began, his voice clear and steady. “First, I want to express my deepest gratitude to all of you for joining us at the Skyreach Group New Year Gala tonight. The fact that Skyreach Group has established such a strong presence in Solara in such a short time is entirely thanks to your unwavering support. I know many of you are curious about the chairperson behind this company, and tonight, she will join us for what promises to be an unforgettable evening.”

A hush fell over the room.

The grand doors at the far end of the hall slowly swung open.

All eyes instinctively turned toward the entrance, and the room seemed to hold its breath.

There, framed by the doorway, stood a slender figure.

She wore a midnight blue gown that shimmered like the night sky sprinkled with stars. Her hair was gathered loosely and pinned with a delicate crystal clasp. A white mask concealed her face, yet even without seeing her features, the quiet elegance she radiated—graceful, distant, serene—captivated everyone present.

Jacob’s lips curled into a faint smile as he observed her approach. That girl truly was something extraordinary.

Ethan stared in stunned disbelief. Could it really be her?

Jeremy hesitated, his eyes narrowing. The silhouette was vaguely familiar, but he quickly dismissed the thought. After all, most of their so-called peers had only built their ventures with family backing. A girl from such a background could hardly be responsible for something of this magnitude.

Justin’s gaze was fixed intently on her, the emotions flickering in his eyes impossible to read. The urge to move toward her was almost unbearable—but the memories of their past kept him rooted in place.

He had wrestled with himself for a long time before deciding to come to Solara.
