Chapter 24
Five years passed by,
bringing more beautiful blessings,
to the Sterling family.
A beautiful little girl,
was born to them,
with Clara's bright eyes,
and Henri's sweet smile.
They named her Lily,
after the flower of,
hope and pure rebirth.
Clara scaled back work,
spending her precious days,
playing in grand garden,
with her sweet daughter.
Marco became the official,
Chief Operating Officer of,
the entire shipping empire.
He managed daily tasks,
with perfect precise loyalty,
consulting Clara only on,
the largest strategic decisions.
The company grew stronger,
becoming a global symbol,
of honesty and integrity.
Victoria Vance passed away,
in her prison cell,
ending the family line,
of the corrupt enemies.
Clara did not feel,
anything when news came,
the past was truly,
dead and completely buried.
She sat on deck,
holding Lily in lap,
pointing to big ships,
sailing down the river.
"Those are our ships,
my sweet little darling,"
she explained softly to,
the curious listening child.
"They carry good things,
all over the world,
making people happy everywhere."
Lily laughed and clapped,
her tiny hands together,
watching the blue flags.
Henri walked out joining,
them wrapping his arms,
around his beautiful family.
They stood together there,
watching the sunset paint,
May you like
the sky in pink,
and deep orange colors.
