Prologue: The Man Who Owns Everything
Zaden is no ordinary heir.
The son of a powerful businessman, he steps into the role of CEO and takes control of his family empire at the young age. cold, arrogant, and dangerously obsessive, Zaden believes everything in life can be owned - success, power and people.
He has never faced rejection.
He has never lost control, until someone walks into his life.
Chapter 1:
Zaden wasn't born into power—he was forged in it.
As the heir to his father's empire, he didn't just inherit the business… he transformed it. The moment he stepped in as CEO, everything changed. Efficiency sharpened. Profits soared. Fear spread.
Zaden didn't believe in luck—only control.
To push the company beyond limits, he handpicked new candidates—skilled, ambitious, and expendable. To him, people weren't people. They were tools. Assets. Replaceable.
Because Zaden was not a man you crossed.
Adamant. Ruthless. Unforgiving.
His anger wasn't just a flaw—it was a weapon. Even his own parents avoided provoking him, choosing silence over confrontation. Those who dared to challenge him? They didn't stay long enough to regret it.
And Zaden always got what he wanted.
Always.
Love? It never interested him. Neither did women. Emotions were distractions—and distractions were weaknesses. He lived by one rule:
A man without distractions will always stay at the peak of success.
And for years… he proved it true.
Until one decision—his decision—became the beginning of his downfall.
Because sometimes, the most dangerous thing in a man's life…
is not his enemies—
…but the one person he never planned for.
