As she stood in front of the mirror in her bedroom, Kiara adjusted her blouse, her heart racing with anticipation.

Kiara took a deep breath, steeling herself. "As ready as I'll ever be!" she replied, forcing a smile.

When she stepped out, Cyndi's eyes lit up. "You look fantastic! That outfit is perfect for the press conference."

"Thanks!" Kiara said, glancing at her reflection in the hallway mirror. The tailored blazer and fitted skirt made her feel professional and strong—exactly what she needed to face the scrutiny ahead. "I just hope I can keep it together."
