If I told you this was only gonna hurt
If I warned you that the fire's gonna burn
Would you walk in?
Would you let me do it first?
Do it all in the name of love
Would you let me lead you even when you're blind?
In the darkness, in the middle of the night
In the silence, when there's no one by your side
Would you call in the name of love?

I wake up as I felt the warm sunlight on my face

I wake up as I felt the warm sunlight on my face. I stretch out my arms and climb down my soft queen-sized bed. I glance at the clock on the adjacent wall, it is 8 am. Finally, after weeks I got my proper eight-hour sleep. I never get time to sleep as I am always travelling from one country to another. My business deals are usually out of town.

I had to get up today because is it Monday and not because I will get fired for being late. After all who will fire the CEO of the company?

Yes, you all heard it right. I am Aubrey Andrea Clinton, The CEO of the Clinton Empire, the only child of my mom and Dad, Jennifer and Benjamin Clinton.

I quickly brush my teeth and take a long bath. I change into my office clothes and go down to have my breakfast.

"Good Morning Ivy. What's for breakfast?" I asked Ivy, who takes care of my house when I am at the office or in a different country.

"Ma'am you might want to check the news." She says in a slightly melancholic voice, turning on the television. I furrowed my eyebrows as I read her frightened expression. I glanced that the Television screen and I felt my whole world tumbled down after reading the heading.

"THE FAMOUS CLINTON EMPIRE OF THE INFAMOUS BUSINESSWOMEN AUBREY CLINTON LOSES 25 BILLION DOLLARS AS DOMINIC JONES CUTS ALL TIES WITH THE EMPIRE."

"Ma'am? Ma'am!!" Ivy shouted but I couldn't focus on anything. All I could hear was my heart beating wildly against my ribs. I knew that I shouldn't have trusted that bastard Dominic but just because his father and dad are best friends I trusted him. His company was the second-best in real estates and he was our biggest investor. Hell, we both were really good business partners. How can he just sever all the ties with my company? What am I going to do? I am gonna sue that bastard.

I quickly grab my phone to confirm whether that bastard had really severed all the ties with my company. I quickly go out of my house, called my manager, and told him to find that asshole. As soon as I step out of my house, I was surrounded by the paparazzi flashing their camera at my face and asking me millions of question.  Of course, people want to know about the downfall of Aubrey Clinton, the most famous and successful businesswoman.
