Aurelia’s POV

“How did you even come to that conclusion?” Julien asked, his voice measured but tight.

“Matteo,” I said simply.

His head snapped up. “What?”

“Look,” I continued, already sensing the shift in the air, “you don’t like him, and that’s fine. But he works for me. I can ask him whatever I want.”

Julien exhaled slowly, rubbing his jaw. “I can’t use that information.”

I turned fully to him. “Because you’re proud?”

His eyes flashed. “Because Matteo is a shady man. And because this doesn’t

    Aurelia’s POV“I’m so sorry,” I said softly, meaning far more than the words could carry.Selene lifted her gaze to me, eyes still rimmed with exhaustion. “Thank you for coming so quickly.”Julien shifted beside me, his expression all sharp angles and quiet fury. “About the video,” he said carefully. “You saved it, right? The part that shows the murder.”“Yes,” she replied without hesitation. “The video and the conversation. They mentioned K Tech too.”The air in the room tightened.I turned slowly toward Julien. “I have a strong feeling it’s your accountant.”His jaw flexed, the idea clearly landing where it hurt most.“We should go look for the phone,” Matteo said, already thinking in routes and contingencies.“No need,” Julien replied calmly. “If they haven’t destroyed it already, they’ll have searched for it. My tech guy will hack it.”Selene’s hands curled into fists. “I’m scared, Aurelia,” she whispered. “That woman… she’s brutal. I know they’re looking for me.”I placed a hand

    Aurelia’s POVI didn’t waste time thinking. I called Matteo.“I need your help, urgently,” I said the moment he picked up. My voice sounded steadier than I felt. “I asked Grant’s girlfriend to get me some information. Now she’s in danger.”There was no panic on his end, only the quiet shift of a man switching into action mode.“Send me the location,” he said.I hesitated, fingers tightening around my phone. “Matteo… I want this done quietly. No noise. No headlines.”“That’s not a problem,” he replied smoothly.We sent him the exact coordinates her phone was pinging from, then all we could do was wait. Every second stretched thin, brittle with dread. My eyes kept drifting to the screen, as if staring harder might will it to change.Not long after, my phone rang again.“She’s not at the location you sent,” Matteo said.My stomach dropped. “That doesn’t make sense. Her phone is pointing in that direction.”There was a brief pause on the line, the kind that carried weight.“Could it be th

    Aurelia’s POV“How did you even come to that conclusion?” Julien asked, his voice measured but tight.“Matteo,” I said simply.His head snapped up. “What?”“Look,” I continued, already sensing the shift in the air, “you don’t like him, and that’s fine. But he works for me. I can ask him whatever I want.”Julien exhaled slowly, rubbing his jaw. “I can’t use that information.”I turned fully to him. “Because you’re proud?”His eyes flashed. “Because Matteo is a shady man. And because this doesn’t make sense.” He straightened. “How could it be Isolde? She comes from one of the wealthiest families in the country. The Cyrus family owns the largest shares in that company. Why would she need to steal from me?”I scoffed, the sound sharp. “Are you saying this because you hate Matteo… or because you like Isolde?”“What?” he asked, genuinely stunned.“If not,” I pressed, “why are you so determined she isn’t involved? This is the same woman who lied to you before.”“That’s outrageous,” he snappe

    Aurelia’s POVAfter I ended the call, silence stretched between Julien and me. The house felt smaller somehow, the walls pressing in with the weight of what was coming.“They’re trying to link this to me,” I muttered, more to myself than to him. “Someone wants my name tainted. They want me to look guilty.”Julien’s hand closed around mine, firm and grounding, pulling me back from the spiral of calculations racing through my mind.“Let them try,” he said quietly. There was no panic in his voice, only heat. “We’ll show them exactly who’s really behind this.”I nodded, heart pounding, my mind already rearranging facts, timelines, and faces. This wasn’t just about stolen files anymore. It wasn’t even about money. This was war. A carefully staged one. I picked up my phone and called Tessa.“I was about to call you,” she said immediately. “I just saw the news.”“Good,” I replied. “Listen carefully. Do not tell anyone about the stolen files. Not the police. Not yet.”She went silent.“Tell

    Aurelia’s POVBy two p.m. sharp, I pulled into the café parking lot. The place smelled of roasted coffee beans and quiet confessions, the kind people made when they thought no one was listening.Selene was already there. Same seat as last time. Same corner.But she wasn’t the Selene I remembered, she's not as flashy.“Hey,” I said as I slid into the chair across from her.She looked up slowly. “Hey.”Her face was leaner, sharper around the edges. The softness she once carried was gone, replaced by something colder, more deliberate. Survival had rewritten her features.“Tough life, huh?” I asked lightly.She scoffed. “You don’t say. I’m considering selling my farm in Colombia.”That made me chuckle. The irony of it all never failed to amuse me.The barista approached, and I ordered an iced latte, watching Selene carefully. She sat too still, too composed. This wasn’t healing. This was calculation.“So Grant,” I said casually. “Does he know you had a hand in what happened to his company

  • After Divorce, My Boss Made Me His Obsession    Chapter 209: The Weapon of His Own Making

    Aurelia's POVThe next morning, my phone buzzed. It was Abraham. His assistant hadn’t shown up at work, and somehow, their contact wasn’t reachable.“Thank you. Just get back to work,” I said, my tone clipped but calm.“Yes, ma’am,” he replied.Julien and I went to see Philip. He seemed locked in his own universe. His sleeves were rolled up neatly, discarded markers piled in the bin beside him, each one a casualty of his obsession. Numbers danced across the glass walls with rhythmic precision, the scratch of his pen echoing softly in the quiet room.“Should we greet him?” Julien asked, glancing at the determined figure inside.“No need,” I said, shaking my head slightly. “Call someone to drop off boiled water, leave the label outside the door.”Julien frowned. “Why only boiled water?”“He doesn’t eat anything made by someone else,” I explained. “The highest we can do is give him very clean water. Nothing more, nothing less.”Julien’s brow furrowed. “Does he have OCD too?”I chuckled s

    Aurelia’s POVFor a long while, we just lay there, breathing, the silence soft and slow, filled with the rhythm of two hearts learning to rest again.When the rush of it all finally calmed, I gently moved his hand from around my waist. “I need to use the bathroom,” I whispered.Julien’s lips curved
