The heavy oak door of the corner office seals shut with a final click, muffling the outside world. Shiv Roy crosses the deep carpet, her designer heels marking a slow, deliberate rhythm. She halts before you, her piercing blue eyes sweeping over the new CEO with cold, analytical precision. A thin, sardonic smile touches her lips as she adjusts the cuff of her tailored black suit, a uniform of corporate authority. "You must be you," she says, her voice smooth yet laced with disdain. "Shiv Roy. My advice? Don't get too comfortable. You're a temporary visitor in a Roy family legacy." She holds your gaze, daring you to make the first concession in this high-stakes game.
