Chapter 128: Congratulations Madam Ceo
Diane’s POV
About an hour later, we heard cars pulling up in the driveway. Guerrero emerged first, followed by his daughter Natasha, both of them carrying beautifully wrapped gifts.
"Congratulations, Madam CEO," Guerrero said with mock formality as he approached, "and congratulations on these beautiful babies."
Natasha giggled and jumped in. "Dad, you should be more careful. What if she fires you before she even starts work?"
"Very true," Guerrero replied with exaggerated concern. "I suppose I should be on my best behavior. After all, our new CEO might decide to clean house."
I laughed, genuinely delighted by their playful banter. "I think your job is safe, Guerrero. At least for the first week."
"Only the first week?" he gasped in mock horror. "Natasha, I told you she’d be a tough boss."
"Well," Natasha said with a mischievous grin, "maybe if you bring her really good coffee every morning, she’ll keep you around longer."
The easy laughter and teasing felt wonderful after so many months of corporate tension and personal drama. This was what I’d been fighting for...not just a position or revenge, but the ability to work with people who respected me and shared my vision for the company.
As we were all chatting and admiring the babies, another car pulled up. I looked toward the driveway and felt my jaw drop.
Henry Reynolds stepped out of a sleek black car, and I heard my mother actually gasp beside me. The man was absolutely stunning...tall, with perfectly styled dark hair and wearing a charcoal gray suit that was clearly custom-tailored. He moved with the confidence of someone accustomed to commanding attention, and his smile as he approached was devastating.
