Chapter 08

Alison’s POV

The cool morning air didn't help clear my head as I walked out of the law firm near the financial district. Liam’s legal team had spent two hours going over the paperwork to help me reclaim my grandfather’s seat on the board. It was exhausting, but it had to be done.

Liam walked a few steps behind me, quietly giving sharp instructions to his assistant over the phone about a new business deal.

I took a deep breath and headed toward the black SUV waiting at the curb. I

I wasn't even halfway down the wide stone steps when a desperate voice called out my name."Allison! Wait—please, just stop for one second!"I froze.Julian rushed out from behind a stone pillar near the entrance. He looked disheveled. His expensive suit jacket was unbuttoned, his silk tie loosened, and his hair stood up in messy clumps where he’d clearly been pulling at it."Julian.” I said, my voice dropping into an icy register as I stopped. "You're violating the distance boundary my lawye

  • Destroying My Ex With His Worst Enemy   Chapter 7

    Chapter 07Morning light filtered through the heavy velvet curtains, stretching across the king-sized bed. My body felt warm and exhausted, a deep ache in my muscles reminding me of everything that happened last night.I turned my head on the silk pillow.Liam was already awake, sitting shirtless against the leather headboard. The pale glow of his phone lit up his sharp jawline.He didn't look like a man who had just spent the night in my bed. He looked like the ruthless, cold, and calculating billionaire everyone feared."You're awake.” He said quietly, his voice low and raspy from sleep. He didn't turn his head immediately, his thumb flicking across the screen."Hard not to be when you're emitting enough cold energy to freeze the room.” mumbled, pulling the sheet up to cover my chest as I sat up. "What's on the phone?"Liam finally locked the screen and set it face-down on the nightstand. He turned to me, his dark gray eyes scanning my face, taking in the red marks on my co

    Chapter 06The moment the front door to Liam’s penthouse clicked shut, he tossed his keys onto the console table, reached for my waist, and pulled me back against his chest.His hand went straight under my hair, gripping the back of my neck to tilt my head up while his other hand found the zipper of my green dress. The slide of the teeth sounded loud in the dark, quiet hallway. He didn't wait to get to the bedroom. He pushed the silk off my shoulders, letting it drop to the floor, leaving me standing there in just my lace underwear and high heels.His eyes swept down my body, raw and heavy, before he met my gaze. "You looked incredible tonight.” He murmured, his voice low and rough. "Watching you tear him apart made me want to bend you over that boardroom table.""You took your time stepping in.” I said, my breathing already starting to shorten as his thumb rubbed over my bottom lip."I wanted to see how you handled him.” Liam said, stepping closer until his chest pressed aga

    Chapter 5By 9:00 AM the next morning, news of my engagement to Liam and the news of Arthur Montgomery’s death were trending across every financial channel.We drove straight to the Montgomery Group skyscraper downtown. My Uncle Richard had called an emergency board meeting for 9:30 AM, aiming to vote himself permanent Chairman before my grandfather’s will could be formally processed.I walked through the glass doors of the top-floor conference room beside Liam. Arthur’s lawyer, Mr. Pendelton, walked right behind us with a thick leather briefcase.Inside, seven board members sat around a long oak table. At the head of the room, my Uncle Richard was mid-sentence, leaning over a stack of papers."...so we must act immediately.” Richard was saying sharply. "Arthur’s estate is tangled in legal review, and this girl claiming to be an heir is just an opportunistic distraction—""The 'girl' is standing right here, Richard.” I said, stepping into the room.The board members turned in

    Chapter 04By 7:00 PM, the Grand Metropole ballroom was full of press, investors, and corporate executives.I walked in on Liam’s arm, wearing an emerald dress his team had brought to the suite. My hair was pulled back, and the diamond ring on my finger caught the light as we moved through the room.Photographers started taking photos near the entrance. Whispers spread quickly—Liam Blackwood rarely came to these events, and he never brought anyone with him."Keep your eyes forward.” Liam said softly, his hand resting on my back. "Let them speculate."I looked across the room and spotted Julian near the investor tables.He looked terrible. His suit was slightly rumpled, and he was sweating as he tried to pitch to two senior venture capitalists."...just a temporary server issue.” Julian was saying, his voice nervous. "We'll be back online by tonight—""Your servers aren't coming back online, Julian.” I said, stepping up to the table.Julian stopped talking. He turned and stare

    Chapter 03I stared at him, the word echoing in the quiet room.Montgomery."You're lying," I said, stepping toward the bed. "My parents died when I was a baby. I grew up in foster care. I don't have a family.""You had a grandfather who spent three years looking for you after your uncles hid your existence," Liam replied evenly. He tapped the top page. "DNA match, certified deeds, and the final draft of Arthur Montgomery’s will. It was filed with Mercer & Cross at two this morning."I reached out and touched the paper. There it was in black ink: Allison Montgomery.While I’d spent five years giving my life away to a cheating husband, an empire had been waiting for me."Why do you have this?" I snapped, looking up at him, my initial shock hardening into immediate suspicion. "How do you have my family's legal documents in a hotel suite at five in the morning?""I told you.” I'm Liam Blackwood," he said, getting out of bed and pulling on a dark robe as he stepped around the bed
