The next morning, Elias was in his office when Mathew walked in with a tablet in his hand."Sir, I've arranged the meeting.""With Eve?" Elias asked looking up form the document he was reading."Yes." Mathew placed the tablet on the desk. "But she insisted on choosing the location herself.""Why?" Elias frowned."She said she wouldn't meet you unless she was allowed to choose where the meeting would take place.""She's already making demands." Elias leaned back in his chair."Where does she want to meet?""At a high-end restaurant inside the Classic hotel, it's not far from the company."Elias glanced at the name displayed on the tablet.He knew the restaurant. It was an expensive establishment known for its private dining rooms, exclusive guests, and strict reservation policy.For a moment, he considered refusing.He could easily choose another location. He could even have Mathew arrange a private meetin

Ava felt completely exhausted by the time she returned home that evening.It had been a long day at Lin Industries, and she could barely wait to get upstairs, take a warm shower, and lie down.Unfortunately, work wasn't the only thing that had drained her.For days, the news about Elias and his former fiancée had continued to spread across the internet. Every time Ava opened her phone, another article appeared. Some reporters were digging into Elias's past, while others were speculating about whether he and Eve would get back together.The worst part was that Eve wasn't helping matters.Her recent interview had only made things more complicated. Her statement about having unfinished business with Elias had left everyone wondering what she meant. Even at the office, Ava had noticed some of her colleagues whispering whenever she walked past them.Although nobody had dared to question her directly, she knew what they were thinking.Was her marriage in trouble?Was Elias going to leave her fo

For a moment, Eve said nothing.She looked toward the swimming pool, watching the sunlight dance across the water.Clara waited, hoping her words were having the desired effect. She had spent the entire morning thinking about how to approach Eve. She knew she couldn't simply walk up to a woman like her and announce that she wanted to destroy Ava.She needed Eve to see Ava as a common enemy first and so far, things were going better than she had expected. "What exactly do you expect me to do about Ava?" Eve asked finally turning back to face Clara . "That's where I come in." Clara said with a smile. "You?" "Yes. I'll help you." Eve studied her for a long moment then she laughed.It wasn't a warm laugh. It was short and mocking. "And why would you want to help me?" Clara's smile disappeared briefly.She had known Eve would ask that question, but knowing it would come hadn't made answering it any easier. "Because Ava has taken a lot from me, too." She straightened in her chair then c

The afternoon sun shone brightly over the hotel swimming pool, casting golden reflections across the clear blue water.Eve lay on a sun lounger beside the pool, wearing a stylish white swimsuit and dark sunglasses. A glass of juice sat on the small table beside her, and a light breeze played with the loose strands of her hair.For the first time in days, she seemed relaxed but beneath her calm expression, her mind was far from peaceful.She had been back in the city for several days, and things weren't going exactly as she had expected.She had imagined that returning to Elias would be difficult, but she hadn't expected him to be so cold toward her.The Elias she remembered had loved her deeply. He had trusted her with everything, including the secrets he had never shared with anyone else.She had once been the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with now, he looked at her as though she were nothing more than a stranger from an unpleasant past.Eve clenched her jaw.She had not c

Mathew placed the thick file on Elias's desk,for a moment, nobody spoke.Elias stared at the file before slowly lifting his eyes toward his right-hand man."You said I'll be surprised by what you found. What exactly are you talking about?""It's about Eve's life after she left you." Mathew glanced at Raymond before answering."Go on." Elias said with a hardened expression.Mathew pulled out a chair and sat down. Raymond moved closer to the desk, his curiosity growing as he waited for the explanation."When Eve disappeared years ago, you discovered that she had transferred large amounts of money from Ward Industries into an offshore account. At the time, you believed she had run away with her lover, and you were right." Mathew began as he opened the file."I already know that part." Elias fingers curled against the armrest."Yes, but you didn't know who the man was or what he was involved in."Mathew removed a photograph from the file and placed it in front of Elias.The picture showed a
