They Forced Me Out—Then Begged Me Back
The Story
Ivy builds a $300 million fashion empire over eight years, only to watch Derek steal her designs and slash her bonus from $200,000 to $2,000. She resigns immediately, triggering a total company collapse marked by lawsuits, sabotage, and a ruined Fashion Week collection. Ivy transforms acid-burned fabric into a new line called Phoenix, exposes Derek as a spy, and acquires Hartwell for a single dollar.
