Chapter 10 A New Vow
- The news of the Valmont deal sending shockwaves through the global financial markets was only the beginning.
- When Baron Laurent de Valmont stepped up to the podium at the Grand Palais, he hadn't just announced AURA as the exclusive global partner he had cited Amelia Rhodes’s vision as "the definitive future of modern luxury." It was an absolute, landslide victory.
- Within minutes, Sebastian Cross had publicly congratulated AURA on live international television, gracefully conceding the bid with an unquestionable display of sportsmanship that restored his dignity and earned him immense respect across high society. He had kept his word: he fought hard, accepted defeat, and freed Amelia from the weight of their past.
