Adrian’s POV

My mother’s call came the next evening.

I knew the moment I saw her name on my screen that this wasn’t going to be a pleasant conversation.

After everything that had happened over the past few months, we had spoken less and less. Not because we hated each other.

Because we no longer understood each other, or maybe we finally did, and that was the problem.

I stared at the phone for a moment before answering.

“Mother.”

“Come to the house.”

Not hello or how are you.

For the first time in years, I felt like I could breathe; the meeting had gone exactly as I wanted.The board had accepted every single condition I laid out before agreeing to return as CEO of Blackwood Enterprises.The same people who once questioned me were now desperate for me to save the company.

For once, I was alone with my thoughts, and honestly, that was a dangerous place to be.I sat in the living room with a glass of orange juice in my hand, staring through the large windows.

  • Divorced by the Billionaire Who still owns me    New Rules

    Adrian’s POV The room went completely silent. They didn’t expect what I’m about to say. I sat at the head of the table and looked around the room. Every face was turned toward me; some looked relieved, while others appeared nervous. A few seemed confused. Good. Let them wonder. For months, they had been discussing my future without me sitting in this room. Now I was here, and things were going to be different. I leaned back slightly. Nobody moved; the tension hung in the air. “My return comes with conditions.” The statement settled over the room like a stone dropping into still water. Several shareholders exchanged glances. I noticed everything. Years of leading Blackwood had taught me how to read a room before a single word was spoken. The uncertainty was obvious, and the concern was even more obvious.

    Adrian’s POV I woke up before the alarm the room was still dark. For a few seconds, I remained where I was, staring at the ceiling while silence surrounded me. Normally, I would’ve reached for my phone, immediately checked emails, and prepared myself for another day filled with meetings and endless responsibilities. This morning felt different because this wasn’t just another day. It was the day I walked back into Blackwood Enterprises. A slow breath left my lungs surprisingly; I wasn’t nervous. I had expected anxiety, but instead, I felt calm. The decision had already been made. I pushed the blanket aside and sat up. Sunlight was beginning to filter through the curtains. The city outside was slowly waking up. Everything looked normal, but something inside me had changed. I stood and walked toward the window. I simply looked outside, thinking about Blue. I can see the excitement in her eyes whenever she talks about something she loves. A smile appeared before I could stop
