Uncle Scrooge: The Eternal Knot #[nn]

Scrooge McDuck faces a rare crossroads: a sudden infatuation with a free-spending heiress threatens to derail his long-held vow of bachelorhood—especially when he realizes the choice might unravel a decades-old bet from his Klondike days. With Mr. Dunderbeck watching closely, Scrooge must decide whether to follow his heart or stick to a promise made in gold-dust and defiance.

In a twist neither the Beagle Boys nor their new office supply store boss expected, one of the gang finds himself tangled in more than just paperwork—romance with a co-worker quickly turns complicated when her affection seems to come with a hidden agenda.

Scrooge McDuck, ever the paranoid visionary, sets out to build an ark—not for animals, but to safeguard his fortune from an impending biblical flood. His rival, John D. Rockerduck, sees an opportunity to outmaneuver him, luring Scrooge onto the open sea with a high-stakes deal just as the first storms roll in.
