Chapter 86
Just finishing up a more than satisfying business meeting with his associates, Loukas Blaine was heading to his office, mentally assessing the current situation. As Christine mentioned in the morning, when her scandal broke out, everything turned out for the better.
What debuted as an unimaginably disastrous day for her, ended up being a fruitful one. As forecasted, it took a mere couple of hours for the CDE Group shares’ price to triple after the truth was revealed. It was expected to rise tenfold in the next few days.
Those who sold their shares at low price were inflamed with regret and misery. When the price went up, they felt completely powerless.
They didn’t afford to buy again, at least, not the number of shares they owned before. Their lack of information drove them to be at loss. It is said that fear and despair are indeed awful advisors.
From what he gathered from his board meeting, the same thing happened with Blaine Corp.

It’s more likely for hell to freeze than her winning against me!’A vein became visible on her forehead, as if cutting it in half, while her entire demeanor was turning murderous. ‘I’d rather kill her with my own two hands than lose this battle!’Glaring at the phone angrily, she typed [“Aren’t you afraid that I will reveal who is the father of that devil kid of yours?”]‘I know all your weaknesses, Christine! Each and every one of your vulnerabilities are within my reach! You should be scared of me! You damn should!’She was looking forward to the reply, but to her enjoyment, it didn’t come through.

Christine made several attempts in reaching Hunter, but his phone was off, her calls going directly to voicemail. ‘Weird. I hope everything is fine.’ Pacing the room, making holes in the floor, the tension was building up inside, eating her alive. What if something happened? He should have delivered her child by now. Her intuition told her that something was off. Or maybe she was just nervous, it was understandable, after all she went through. In the wake of such an excruciating day, she needed to have Ethan in her arms, he was her most prized possession, her pride and joy.

Erotic moans filled the room, and they didn’t even start the love making session properly.It was just the warm up. There was no more reluctance, only complete surrender to their sexual cravings, their need for each other. It was when Hunter settled his manhood to her entrance that they suddenly stiffened. There was some noise outside the room. Footsteps. Then the door opened widely and a small silhouette appeared near the bed. Rubbing his eyes, he climbed into the bed, his eyes darted from his mommy to his daddy in confusion. It was the nightmare of any parents, to be caught red handed by their child.

Reaching a hand out to Jake, she leaned on him for support for a few good seconds.In all honesty, it would have been less painful if someone would have pulled her heart out and stabbed the poor organ with a million daggers.“Is it true?” Anger and hurt were burning in her eyes. “TELL ME!” She cried out, walking to where Loukas was standing and clamping her fingers in his jacket.He met her accusing regard with silence, yet his entire demeanor was suggesting he was guilty.“Why are you quiet?

Elenora was practically dragged outside by the police, while she shouted and threatened all the way to the car.
