Chasing his billionaire ex wife Chapter 34 : What Stays , What Changes
The days that followed fell into a routine. The security people were still around. They were not as noticeable. The press was still watching,. They were giving everyone some space. Inside the lab things were getting back to normal. Chloe was spending time in her sessions but she was getting more out of them. She was talking less. Listening more. One afternoon she said, "They do not like the noise either." Elara looked at her. "What noise?" Chloe said, "The noise outside. There are many questions at once." Ryan smiled a little. "We know how that feels."That day Silas came in with some new information. "The patterns are getting more stable " he said. "There are spikes and more flow." Elara looked at the charts. "Chloe is getting used to this." Silas nodded. ". So are we." That evening Ryan found Elara on the balcony looking out over the city. The lights below were twinkling like stars. "Do you miss the quiet?" he asked. She thought about it. "Sometimes.. The quiet also meant we were hi

The leak did not come from the lab. It came from a phone. Someone had taken a photo of Chloe in the chair a few weeks ago. This photo showed up on a forum then it jumped to a tech blog and then it went to mainstream feeds within a few hours. The picture showed Chloe in the chair with cables that you could barely see. Elara was in the background. The headline was careful. It was still a big deal: Unregistered Neural Interface Trial in Private Facility. By noon there were three news vans outside the facilitys gate. By two Hamilton Globals phone was ringing nonstop. Silas went into Elaras office with a tablet in his hand and a look on his face that said things were about to get busy. "We can still get ahead of this " he said. ". We have to do it now." Ryan closed the blinds without being asked. Elara did not panic. She read the article once then she read it again. Then she put the tablet down. "They do not know what they are looking at " she said. "Not yet." Silas nodded. "That is why we
Chasing his billionaire ex wife Chapter 32 : What You Choose to Protect
The change happened away. Security outside the lab got a lot stronger. Access logs got more restricted. Only people who really needed to be there could go near Lab C. Rumors were still floating around. Now they hit a wall instead of open doors. Elara noticed that people were talking to her differently. They were more careful. More respectful. A little afraid. Ryan noticed something “You’re standing up straighter " he told her quietly. She hadn’t realized it.. She was standing up straighter. Because she wasn’t scared of being discovered. She was ready. Chloe felt it too. “You’re not worried anymore " she said one afternoon. Elara smiled a little. "I’m worried. I’m just not hiding anymore.” Chloe seemed okay with that. During the session something unexpected happened. Chloe didn’t ask questions. They did. Her expression changed as she listened. Elara leaned forward. "What are they asking?” Chloe spoke slowly. "They want to know why humans separate from e

Elara started to notice looks.They weren't obvious or confrontational. They were there.Two researchers stopped talking when she walked into the hallway. A nurse who usually smiled at her became formal all of a sudden. Silas watched her for a moment before saying, "Something’s changing outside this room.”Elara knew what he meant. News didn’t have to spread for people to get curious. They sensed patterns. Ryan visited her every day. Chloe was getting better. There was security around the lab. They had late-night sessions.Patterns made people ask questions.That afternoon the administration asked for a meeting.Not about Chloe’s health.About "project activity.”Elara sat at the conference table with Ryan and Silas. Across from them were three board members and the facility director.“Dr. Vale," the director started carefully "we’ve seen equipment usage and extended access hours. We need to know what’s going on.”Elara spoke calmly. "Medical monitoring for my daughter.”One board mem

The envelope with the divorce papers was on Elaras desk for three days. Ryan did not say a word about it. He did not ask her anything.. Elara knew he was aware it was there. She could feel the tension between them. On the day Elara got to her desk early and opened the envelope by herself. The papers inside did not have a signature. They looked like papers.. Elara knew they meant a lot. They represented all the pain and sadness and misunderstanding and love that Elara and Ryan had gone through. Elara looked at the line where she was supposed to sign for a time. Then she folded the papers. Put them back in her drawer. She did not sign them. She did not tear them up. She just put them away.That day Chloe was doing well. Her health was stable. She was in a mood. She even laughed at something Ryan said. Then she looked at Elara. Said, "You seem lighter." Elara was surprised. "What do you mean?" she asked. Chloe just shrugged. "You do not feel heavy when Ryan is around " she said. Ryan loo

Elara woke up before her alarm went off. She felt something in her chest but she did not know what it was at first. Then she remembered what Ryan said the night. He said he was in love. She sat up slowly. Looked at the morning light coming through the blinds. Her first thought was to try to understand what he said. She wanted to think about it in a way that would not hurt her.. She could not help how she felt.She got ready for work paying attention to what she was doing. She was tying her hair when she thought of a question. If Ryan had been the person back then would she have stayed with him? The answer came to her quickly. Yes she would have stayed. This scared her.When she got to the lab Ryan was already there with Chloe. They were putting sensor cards on a tray. He looked up when Elara came in and his face changed when he saw her. This made her feel something in her stomach that she did not like. She also missed it. " Morning " he said. " Morning " she replied, trying to sound c
