Amber POV

The next morning began with a realization.

Jason and I could not fight the Vincents alone.

We had money.

We had influence.

We had technology.

But the Vincents had spent generations building their network. If we wanted to tear it down, we needed one of our own.

The first invitations were sent quietly.

Not to politicians.

Not to business executives.

To families.

Old families.

Families that had survived the Vincents without ever truly joining them.

Some replied within hours.

Others answe

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   The Children's Tablets

    Amber POVOne of the soldiers standing near Emory muttered something under his breath."Must be nice to have money. Even the kids get to learn ridiculously expensive shit."Unfortunately for him, Alex heard every word.He tilted his head, studying the soldier with the same serious expression he usually wore when someone said something that didn't make sense to him."Learning things is more expensive when you're an adult," he explained matter-of-factly. "Adults don't have as much time to learn because they have to work, and their time costs money. Children have more time, so it's better to learn things when you're little."The soldier blinked.I stared at the screen.Well.He wasn't exactly wrong.But hearing a six-year-old explain the economics of education as though he were discussing the weather was rather disturbing.Especially when he sounded like a miniature businessman evaluating the profitability of childhood.I opened my mouth, then closed it again.What was I even supposed to

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Easier

    Amber POV One of the soldiers sitting near the front of the vehicle was staring at Alice's tablet. Another had leaned forward to get a better look. Even the driver seemed to be watching through the rearview mirror. Wonderful. My humiliation was now a military event. "Sweetheart," I said gently, "that wasn't actually a game." Alice nodded enthusiastically. "I know! That's why it's so cool!" "No, darling, what I mean is—" "I WANT TO PLAY NEXT!" "Absolutely not." She pouted. "But Mommy!" "No." "Can Daddy teach me?" "Definitely not." "Can Alex?" "ALICE!" She burst into giggles. Alex, meanwhile, was studying the screen with the concentration of someone analyzing a complicated engineering problem. "Mom," he said thoughtfully, "your car almost tipped over." "Thank you for noticing." "You should have gone a little slower." I stared at him. "Alex, darling, I appreciate the advice, but I would prefer that you never attempt anything remotely similar." He nodded. "Okay.

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Really Good At Mario Kart

    Amber POVBy the time we reached the military facility, I had decided that the most exhausting part of being pursued by armed men wasn't actually the pursuit.It was everything that happened afterward.During the chase, I had been too occupied trying to stay alive to properly consider what was happening. Now that I was sitting inside a bulletproof military vehicle, surrounded by trained soldiers and accompanied by a man who seemed determined to examine me for injuries every five minutes, my mind had finally found the opportunity to process the entire afternoon.And apparently, it wasn't particularly pleased with me."Amber, are you listening?"I turned toward Emory."Of course.""What did I just say?""Something about security."He closed his eyes."Wonderful."Cynthia, sitting beside him, covered her mouth to hide a smile."I said we're entering the secured perimeter," Emory repeated patiently. "Once we're inside, the medical team will examine you, and we'll coordinate with Jason bef

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Bulletproof

    Amber POV The driver reacted instantly. There was no hesitation, no attempt to identify the shooter before moving. He pressed the accelerator, and the SUV surged forward, leaving the mall entrance behind as another shot struck the rear window. Cynthia gasped and ducked instinctively. I flinched, but the glass didn't shatter. Instead, a small white mark appeared where the bullet had struck, surrounded by a web of shallow cracks trapped within the reinforced layers. "Stay low," Emory instructed, placing a steadying hand on Cynthia's shoulder. The driver accelerated onto the main road as another round struck the vehicle with a dull metallic thud. The armored body absorbed the impact. No shattered windows. No bullets entering the passenger compartment. Just the unpleasant sound of someone repeatedly attempting to shoot through a vehicle that had been designed specifically to prevent that. "Well," I muttered, staring at the damaged glass, "I'm suddenly very grateful for militar

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Not Again

    Amber POV As Emory escorted me toward the secured exit, Cynthia walked beside us, her enormous camera hanging from her shoulder. He had insisted that she accompany us rather than remain in the mall, considering that the men following me might have noticed her involvement. I was relieved by the decision. After everything she had done to help me, the last thing I wanted was to leave her somewhere she might become another target. We had barely stepped out of the food court when a sudden commotion erupted near the corridor ahead. I instinctively stopped. Four military men converged on one of the men who had been following me, catching him completely off guard. Before he could react, they forced him to the ground, securing his arms behind his back. Several meters away, another four soldiers intercepted the second man, pinning him against the floor before he could reach into his jacket. The entire operation took only seconds. Shoppers gasped and hurried away, while a few curious peopl

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   A Miraculous Encounter

    Amber POV I watched his expression change from professional concern to confusion, then outright disbelief. Cynthia had been reaching for her camera, but the moment she looked up at him, her hand froze. For several seconds, neither spoke. I looked between them. "Do you two know each other?" "Emory?" Cynthia whispered. He stared at her. "Cynthia?" Her eyes widened. "Emory? Emory Ethan?" I slowly turned toward him. Oh. This was interesting. Emory looked as though someone had reached into his past and pulled out a memory he hadn't expected to see again. "Cynthia Shultz?" he asked. She nodded, a disbelieving smile spreading across her face. "Oh, my goodness. It really is you!" Before Emory could react, Cynthia stood and threw her arms around him. He stumbled backward half a step, clearly caught off guard, before wrapping his arms around her. I stared. The soldiers stared. Even Jason, who could apparently hear everything through my earbud, went suspiciously quiet. "I

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Eviction

    I didn’t cry. I didn’t shake. I didn’t look back, or mourned the life and the years i will never get back, lost forever. I just went home, time to pack and say goodbye to my old life. The penthouse doors opened with biometric recognition the moment I stepped inside. Floor-to-ceiling glass. Marb

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Plan

    We moved quickly through the hallway. Adrian walked behind me, gun raised, covering the corridor while I forced Henry Watson forward. The mansion was quieter than expected. Too quiet. Which meant either the guards were regrouping… or Jason was already on his way. I glanced over my shoulder.

    Jason POV Marcus nearly slammed the brakes. “She shot the camera!” I leaned back slowly. Marcus looked at me. “What the hell was that?” I ran a hand over my face. “She said hello husband before she shot it.” Marcus stared. “…Okay.” Silence filled the car. “…What does that mean exactly?”

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Drama

    Family drama. Honestly, I was getting tired of it. I shifted slightly in the chair, letting the ropes around my wrists rub just enough to make the guards think I was uncomfortable. In truth, they had tied them loosely—political kidnappers rarely knew how to do proper restraints. Across from me,
