Osborne's expression gradually became serious. "Stella Norton's identity remains one of the greatest mysteries I've encountered."
His voice lowered significantly as though he were speaking of something that should never be spoken aloud. "And for some reason... I have a strong feeling that even Adrian Carter himself, despite being a Supreme Alpha, may ultimately stand beneath her."
This time, Daniel fell completely silent, unable to find a single argument capable of refuting such a shocking statement.
Osborne's gaze narrowed thoughtfully. He could still vividly remember the very first moment he had seen Stella during the summit. Long before she had stepped into the conference hall, he had already sensed her presence approaching.
At the time, he had dismissed the strange sensation as nothing more than heightened awareness. But now...
Now those forgotten memories were resurfacing one after another.
That suffocating pressure.
That invisible authority.
