A New Beginning

Lena's assistant entered, holding a very small envelope.

"This just arrived for you, Ms. Hart," she said, putting it on the desk.

Lena opened it carefully, recognizing Vivian's handwriting immediately.

The letter was short and very bitter,

"Lena, you have taken everything from me. My position, my reputation and my life. I hope you enjoy your victory, because one day, you will find yourself in my place, and when that day comes, you will understand what it feels like to lose everything. – Vivian"

Lena looked at the letter, her emotions was a mix of anger, sadness, and pity at the same time.

She closed it back with care and put it in the drawer in her desk.

Lena rested on the railing, looking at the city lights as Elias came to her.

"You look really deep in your thought." Elias said, standing beside her.

"I got a letter from Vivian," Lena said, her voice was very quiet.
