exposure would be massive. So when she was invited to do her first Gwen made sure that the coverage of Ciara’s first interview in a very big show in New York, for which she has more than one line-up, it was already a sure bet that everyone would know about the young heiress of the Sullivans.
Her interviews weren’t live at all to keep her security tight. She del the interviews one by one. As she dressed in her all-black coat, her hair cascaded prettily as the valley of her breast showed because of the line of the dress coat that made her look so superior and intimidating.
“Wow. I’ve never met a Sullivan, and you’re here. The youngest Lillionaire of your clan,” Ellen said, the famous interviewer who would be firing the interviews at her.
Ciara smiled as she sat comfortably and elegantly.
“So… my team-the head of your security team has prepared some questions for you that you can answer later during the interview, which means everything here is fine to be asked. But if you wish to add some more, we will let you, because I wanted to ask a lot of things as well, but it seems like it won’t be allowed by your side, Ellen chuckled as she showed the paper to her.
Ciara took it from her hand, which she scanned carefully. Everything was related to business and her family, but there were no personal questions about her family-who are the names of her siblings, how many are there, and so on.
She also saw what Ellen was talking about, which needed her information, as she wanted to ask about personal things such as if she is single.
“Maybe I could answer the relationship part. It’s not that personal to me,” she said.
“Oh, really. That’s great then!”
Though she wasn’t planning to mention that she has a daughter, as she wanted to keep Cara’s privacy and only reveal herself, her main goal is to show those who were trying to hurt her-she was thinking about Shane-whom they were trying to mess with that it will serve as a warning to leave her alone.
She had a busy schedule because of it. Some who met her and did an interview were so mesmerized by her beauty that even a famous magazine, whose last appearance on that day was before everything would be released publicly, praised her.
She just showed her skincare and the things she normally does in her normal routine for a day, as well as preparing to dress up to go to the company. After everything, she watched the videos, as she could see herself being so natural.
“You could really pass as a supermodel. Aren’t you planning to become one? With your height, the shape of your face, the fierceness in your eyes, and even the beauty you have, it’s like you were born for the camera. Look at how magnificent your angles are,” one of the staff members of Vogue said.
Ciara smiled and shook her head. “I am not really interested in modeling. Though I like fashion, I never imagine myself on the runway.”
It was a tiring day for Ciara, but at the same time, she was having fun because of the gentle treatment they showed her. She was respected and well accommodated, like an important thing that shouldn’t be handled recklessly.
“I will already see Mommy on television tomorrow.” Cara’s eyes widened when Ciara told her when she went home.
“Yes, sweethean.”
“Wow! I’m going to see Mommy on television!”
Ciara chuckled as she watched her daughter jump and run while looking so excited for it.

Chapter 28
“Your date will see your on television, too, mommy!”
Ciara’s smile slowly faded when she realized that it had been almost two weeks since she started ignoring Callum. She remembered saying to Callum that she would introduce him to her father, but things changed drastically, and now she would introduce herself in the eyes of the public, which might shock everyone.
When tomorrow came, Ciara went to the company to review some of the proposals while the internet-including the show she attended-started showing up.
She hadn’t looked at her phone yet, but she received a text from Gwen saying that it was successful.
So she added a tab on her laptop and checked on the internet until the famous show she attended trended, and she saw how the views were suddenly increasing in just a minute. It’s gaining thousands in each second that she could smell; it would be a million views in a day.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I know every one of us is so curious about the Sullivans, the richest family in this generation, who are linked to multiple luxurious brands that contain billionaires. Despite the massive success of their family, we all know how low-key they live their lives. Some were thinking they might be just around, living a simple life. But tonight, in my show, the youngest heiress, the newly appointed CEO of Sullivan Corp., is now here with me, ready to give us a glimpse of this wealthiest family. May I present to you… Ciara Sullivan, the youngest billionaire-the CEO of the Sullivan Corp.”
And just like that, the camera slowly moved to Ciara, who was sitting elegantly in her black coat as she was shown on the video.
Ciara checked the thousand comments and saw the shock of the commentators whom she read.
Oh, my god? All this time, the CEO is a woman? A young woman?
The beauty! Oh my god!
Guys! She’s my schoolmate! Ciara! Oh my god!)
Ciara left the app and went to the other platform until she confirmed that her name had indeed trended.
And in just an hour, her face went up on the billboards and the New York Times Square as well, showing her intimidating physique that shocked everyone.
She finished her own work, as the internet seemed to be going crazy because of Sullivan suddenly dropping a bomb.
When she went out of her office, the other employees were now looking at her, holding their phones, so they immediately hid and bowed a bit as she walked.
Ciara could smell the sudden shake she made in the business industry. Though she couldn’t record or see what Callum and Shane’s reactions might be, she knew that she was untouchable by their plans to hurt her.
“There was a lot of paparazzi outside the company, ma’am,” her secretary informed.
“Though they wanted to be let into the parking lot, it was immediately handled by the security,” her secretary continued.
“Don’t allow any visitors,” Ciara said as the secretary nodded.
She went to the parking lot and slipped into her sports car as she slowly went out. But then she saw a familiar sports car tailing behind her.
What now, Callum? Your question has already been answered. Do you think I’d cheated behind your back with a Sullivan? And how would you explain that Shane was in the mall and you were there, too?
I almost fell on your pursuance, but I cannot just lower my guard knowing that what happened in the past has scarred me, and now your daughter has been traumatized by your woman.

“He’s following you. We’ll distract him,” she said, hearing Gwen’s voice on the call.
“No. Let him follow me. I needed one last talk with him.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes.”
Her bodyguards who were supposed to block Callum’s way slowly gave in as he was now advancing until they leveled on
hers.
Ciara slowly lowered down the window until Callum’s window lowered down as well. Her eyes remained at the front, while in her peripheral vision, she could see Callum glancing at her.
“Stop the car and let’s talk, Ciara,” he heard Callum’s voice boom
Ciara glanced at him in a cold manner and increased her speed. Callum followed. She went somewhere where they could talk privately until she stopped it somewhere that no one would interrupt them.
Callum’s car was parked behind her as well, and they both went out. Ciara saw the three cars somewhere that stopped as well, and she knew that they were her bodyguards.
Ciara leaned against the door of her car as she crossed her arms when Callum looked at her with pure demands, his jaw clenching.
“You” he said, looking at her intently.
“I want you to stop pursuing me,” Ciara said without beating around the bush.
Callum’s jaw clenched. “You introduced me to your parents, Ciam. Who are they? All this time….you…you are a Sullivan? Are you kidding me?” Callum chuckled as the betrayal mingled, and Ciara could sense his controlled anger.
“Does that even matter, Callum?” Ciara arched her brow.
“I’ve invested my time in knowing you, Ciara. I was eager to get to know you from the past. And yet, you were pretending? You didn’t tell me who you really are. You’ve made a fool out of me.”
