Bound By A Broken Night Chapter 63 - Just A Beginning
A heavy silence settled over the boardroom after Cassidy’s departure.It pressed down on everyone—thick, uncomfortable, inescapable.Ashton and Zandrie exchanged a brief look, one loaded with frustration and restraint, before both men let out slow, measured breaths. The other board members sat stiffly in their seats, unease rippling through the room as they processed what had just unfolded.All except one.Elvira Knowles leaned back in her chair, a thin, satisfied smirk curving her lips as she stared at the door through which Cassidy had vanished—victory gleaming in her eyes.“Let us all settle down,” Ashton said calmly, breaking the silence.His gaze swept across the board before coming to rest on Madame Elvira and CEO Red Knowles, lingering just long enough to remind them he had not missed a single word spoken earlier.“CEO Wallace,” Ashton continued, turning to Zandrie, “we may proceed with the meeting now.”He gestured toward the head of the table—the seat Red Knowles had occupied
Bound By A Broken Night Chapter 62 - Escape
Donned in a pristine white business suit—and adorned with the new jewelry Ashton had bought for her the day before—Cassie stepped into Knowles Corporation with measured confidence.The diamonds caught the light with every movement.Heads turned. Conversations dipped into hushed murmurs. Curious glances followed her down the corridor, as though her presence was still a surprise—unwelcome, unexpected.She paid none of it any mind. Her focus was fixed on the impending board meeting.Just as she was about to reach the boardroom, two figures stepped into her path, forcing her to halt.“I truly can’t understand how shameless you can be, Cassidy” Mirriam sneered, her eyes raking over Cassie with open disdain. “Always inserting yourself into company affairs. You’re merely CEO Wallace’s wife, yet you carry yourself as if you’re the CEO.”She scoffed. “How presumptuous.”Cassie met her gaze calmly, unreadable.“Well,” Mirriam continued, lips curling into something that almost resembled a smile
Bound By A Broken Night Chapter 61 - Too Invested
The night of glamour had finally drawn to an end, its glitter fading with the morning light. Cassie’s next appointment loomed far less forgiving: the stockholders’ meeting. The first since the acquisition. The first under a new name.Knowles and Greene Corporation.It would be her battlefield.There, behind polished tables and courteous smiles, she would face the restrained fury of her father—and the sharpened resentment of his family. She could already imagine the tension thick in the air.But not yet.Before walking into that war, she allowed herself a small indulgence. Shopping, after all, had always been a reliable remedy for boredom—and nerves. A new set of jewelry might do more than lift her mood; it would serve as armor.The moment she stepped into one of Bay City’s most luxurious jewelry boutiques, her eyes lit up like the diamonds gleaming beneath crystal-clear glass. Soft lighting cascaded over elegant display cabinets, making every gemstone shimmer with quiet opulence. It

“Ash—ton—” she tried to resist, but her strength paled in comparison to his. One arm locked around her waist, the other holding her in place, leaving her nowhere to retreat. The moment she tried to speak again, his kiss deepened, silencing her.It was consuming—overwhelming. She tasted wine on his breath, sharp and intoxicating, and felt the dangerous heat spread through her nerves despite herself. Worse, her body betrayed her, softening, responding.“Ashton…” she managed when his lips trailed from her mouth, along her jaw.“Stop,” she said breathlessly, pushing weakly against his chest. “What are you doing?”“I’m cherishing you, Cassidy,” he murmured, lifting his head just enough to look into her eyes—dark, intent. “The only good thing about your shameless husband is that he’s given me this chance.”Before she could respond, his face buried against her neck, his breath warm, lingering, unraveling her resolve."Ashton… no…” Panic threaded her voice when his other hand slipped along t
Bound By A Broken Night Chapter 59 - Overwhelmed
The tension around the table thickened, coiling tightly in the air as all eyes shifted toward Ashton, waiting—almost daring—for his reaction.Mirriam and Rima exchanged a loaded glance, a silent understanding passing between them before identical sneers curved their lips.“Sister,” Mirriam drawled, her voice dripping with mock concern, “you really can’t stop flirting with Ashton—even in front of your husband and your father-in-law?”She paused deliberately, letting the accusation sink in before pressing on, clearly enjoying the attention she had stirred.“I honestly don’t know how much longer I can defend your shamelessness, Cassidy,” Rima chimed in, shaking her head as if deeply wounded. Her hand pressed to her chest, her expression a perfect imitation of disappointment and heartbreak. “Can you at least stop disgracing us? Even if you’re no longer under our roof, people still associate you with this family. Please—have some respect for us.”Cassie slowly turned to look at the two w
Bound By A Broken Night Chapter 58 - Blunt
The lavish dinner commenced beneath the soft glow of crystal chandeliers, silverware chiming gently as attendants moved with practiced grace. To Mirriam’s mounting annoyance, Cassie had been seated squarely between Ashton Pierce and Zandrie Wallace, while she herself was placed across the table—close enough to see everything, far enough to feel deliberately excluded.“Try this, babe,” Zandrie said casually, spearing a slice of perfectly seared meat and lifting it toward Cassie’s lips.The simple gesture drew instant attention—sharp, unhidden. Rima irritated. Mirriam’s fingers curled tightly around her fork. But it was Ashton’s reaction that cut the deepest, his jaw hardened, eyes flicking to the two of them with unmistakable tension.Cassie leaned in without hesitation.“Hmmm… delicious,” she murmured, her eyes widening in genuine delight as she savored the bite, chewing slowly, almost theatrically.Zandrie chuckled, clearly pleased. He turned to Ashton, a taunting smile playing on h
