Back To My Billionaire Ex Chapter 28 - What Lies Ahead
The signing ceremony had officially concluded.Outside the Carter Holdings Convention Center, the lobby had transformed into a media frenzy.Camera flashes lit up the entrance as reporters called out questions from behind the barricades.The newly formed business partners stood side by side for the official photographs.One shot.Another.Then a few more with the executives from both corporations.As the photographers finished, the reporters seized the opportunity."Ms. Rivera!"A microphone was thrust toward Elena."There have been rumors all over social media suggesting that you and Mr. Vale are more than business partners. Would you like to comment?"Elena blinked.She briefly looked at Adrian before facing the reporters again."I'm afraid that's nothing more than speculation," she replied professionally. "Mr. Vale and I are business partners. Nothing beyond that."Several reporters immediately turned to Adrian."Mr. Vale?""Do you agree with Ms. Rivera?"Adrian remained composed."

Elena squeezed her eyes shut, instinctively bracing for the impact.But it never came.Instead, she felt a firm hand cradle the back of her head, cushioning it from the hard concrete as they hit the ground.For a moment...Neither of them moved.The rooftop fell silent.Only the gentle breeze drifted between them.Adrian remained above her, one arm still supporting her head while the other steadied his weight.His eyes lingered on her face.The way a few loose strands of hair framed it.The faint rise and fall of her breathing.For reasons he couldn't explain...He couldn't look away.Slowly, Elena opened her eyes.The first thing she saw was him.Their gazes locked.Neither spoke.Neither seemed willing to break the moment.It was as though the city below had vanished, leaving only the two of them suspended in time.A bird chirped somewhere nearby.The spell shattered.Realizing how close they were, Elena quickly placed a hand against his chest and gently pushed him back.Adrian blin

RIVERA CORPORATION A knock sounded on the office door."Come in."The door opened, and Adrian stepped inside, impeccably dressed in a tailored navy-blue suit over a crisp white shirt.Elena stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows with her back to him, watching the city come alive below."Good morning," Adrian greeted as he crossed the office and settled onto one of the sofas.Without turning around, Elena spoke."So... what did you find out about the Carters?"She completely ignored his greeting.A small smile tugged at Adrian's lips.He waited.After a few seconds, Elena finally turned around and met his gaze."...Good morning, Mr. Vale.""There she is," Adrian said with a satisfied smile.Elena rolled her eyes before taking the single armchair opposite him."Now," she said, folding one leg over the other, "tell me what you found."Adrian's expression gradually became serious."I dug into Carter Holdings.""And?""Everything came back clean."Elena frowned."Clean?""Too clean."He le

The Rivera Corporation boardroom buzzed with quiet conversations.Printed copies of the Horizon Bay Smart District Project proposal lay neatly before every executive. Some skimmed through the documents with growing excitement, while others discussed the numbers in hushed voices.The estimated value alone was enough to command everyone's attention.Nearly eight billion dollars.The boardroom doors opened.Adrian Vale walked in.His sharp gaze swept across the room before he took his seat without a word.Marcus was already there, reviewing the digital presentation on his tablet.A moment later, Elena entered.The conversations faded almost instantly as she walked to the head of the table and took her seat.Marcus stood.With a tap on his tablet, the large screen behind him lit up.A sleek 3D rendering of the Horizon Bay Smart District appeared."This," Marcus began, "is one of the opportunities that came out of yesterday's Annual Business World Summit."He switched to the next slide."T

Morning.Warm rays of sunlight filtered through the curtains, spilling across Elena's bedroom.She remained curled beneath the blankets, fast asleep.Then—Ping.Her phone vibrated on the nightstand.She barely moved.Ping.Another notification.Then another.Her brows knitted together as she slowly stirred, squinting against the morning light streaming through the window.Last night's summit had drained every ounce of energy from her.The notifications refused to stop.With a tired sigh, she pushed herself upright and stretched before reaching for her phone.The screen lit up instantly.Dozens of unread notifications.Messages from the Annual Business World Summit organizers.News alerts.Social media tags.Business magazines.Photos from guests who had attended the event.Curious, she opened the first article.A large photo of her and Adrian entering the venue filled the screen.CEO OF RIVERA CORPORATION AND VALE INDUSTRIES ARRIVE AT THE AWBS SUMMIT IN MATCHING, COUPLE-LIKE OUTFITS.

Outside the venue, controlled chaos reigned.Reporters crowded behind security barriers, shouting questions at arriving executives, investors, and government officials. Camera flashes erupted relentlessly as luxury vehicles pulled up one after another at the grand entrance.Some attendees offered brief smiles.Others ignored the media completely.Drivers handed over their passengers before moving the vehicles away, making room for the next arrival.Tonight was not just another corporate gathering.It was the Annual Business World Summit.And everyone who mattered was expected to attend.---Inside, the atmosphere was entirely different.Elegant.Exclusive.Private.The noise of the outside world couldn't penetrate the massive hall.Round tables draped in pristine white silk filled the room beneath warm ambient lighting. Crystal chandeliers glittered overhead while soft instrumental music drifted through hidden speakers.Business leaders occupied many of the tables already.Some discus

Elena's thumb hovered over the call button for the third time that evening.Adrian Vale's name glowed on the screen like a ghost from a life she had buried five years ago.One call.That was all it would take to bring him back into her life. This could either save Rivera Corporation or reopen old

Sophia Vale, Adrian’s sister, ignored the greetings trailing after her as she strode toward the elevator to his office, lips pressed thin, brows knitting.The elevator opened to Daniel, attention locked on his tablet. He seemed too busy to notice anything else—and that quiet disregard only deepened
