Embraced By The Billionaire Chapter 76: A Knock on the Door
The Reed mansion was experiencing an unsettling silence. The customary hum of efficient domestic staff and ambitious deals had vanished, replaced by an oppressive stillness that felt like a chokehold. The house had become a tomb, suffocating under the weight of financial ruin and the humiliation unleashed by the morning’s media firestorm.In her vast private study, Rose Reed remained rooted behind her shiny desk. She had not bothered to illuminate the room fully, relying only on the weak, cold light filtering in from the grounds. She was a queen on a collapsing throne, her body rigid in her severe maroon suit, her face a mask of cold hatred directed at the external forces that had dared to challenge her.She picked up her secure phone only to slam it back down; her lawyers were uselessly advising caution, but Rose’s pride demanded vengeance.They think they’ve won the war with a piece of paper and a dead son's letter, she thought, her lips thinning into a venomous line. They are fools

The media firestorm ignited instantly. Across the globe, the revelation of Julian Reed's final moments and Rose Reed's cruelty dominated every headline. Social media became a furious mob.The hashtag #JusticeForJulian trended worldwide, replacing any sympathy Rose had manufactured in the past decade with visceral public rage. The corporate world watched in disbelief as the Reed empire crumbled not just from financial failure, but from moral bankruptcy.At the Knight Mansion, Ashton, Avery, and Sarah remained glued to the television, watching the inevitable implosion unfold. The news anchors, usually composed and professional, looked genuinely shaken as they relayed the latest developments."They're calling Rose a murderer," Sarah murmured, her voice tight with disbelief as she watched an analyst debate the legal implications of Clara's anonymous testimony. "This is beyond anything Rose can control. The witnesses are solid, the evidence is damning."Ashton nodded grimly, his gaze fixed

The silence in Ashton Knight's study was heavy, charged with the weight of their impending actions. Weeks of meticulous planning, covert operations, and strategic leaks had culminated in this single moment, the point of no return.Ashton sat at his desk, his expression unreadable, a formidable mask of control that had seen him through countless battles. Avery sat opposite him, meanwhile Sarah stood by the window, her own gaze distant as she scanned the grounds, a subtle nod to the heightened security.The door to the study opened, admitting Alistair. He entered with a quiet, professional air. The seasoned lawyer radiated an aura of calm efficiency, but his usually placid face now held a trace of gravity."Everything is ready," Alistair announced, his voice carrying a note of serious finality. He placed a sleek, thin laptop on the desk between Ashton and Avery. "The package has been prepared. Katherine Vance is waiting for the final authorization. We only need your final approval, Asht

The opulence of the Reed mansion did little to cushion the devastating impact of Rose’s rage. Oliver Reed was finally dragged back to the estate by two nervous security guards and immediately ushered into his mother’s private study. The guards had found him at Aurelia, still half-asleep on the velvet sofa, his expensive suit rumpled, smelling faintly of stale whiskey and self-pity.Rose was waiting. She stood behind her desk, still wearing the severe gray suit from the morning, but her composure was gone. Her eyes burned with a cold, terrifying fury that promised imminent destruction.Oliver stood before her, his posture slumped, his face pale and contorted with fear. He attempted to straighten his jacket, a pathetic, futile gesture of defiance."Sit down, Oliver," Rose commanded, her voice dangerously quiet. The lack of volume was more menacing than any shout.Oliver didn't dare argue. He knew all along that he screwed up. He collapsed into the nearest leather armchair, his legs givi

The exclusive bar, Aurelia, pulsed with the intoxicating rhythm of manufactured success. Oliver Reed, basking in the fabricated adoration of Ashton’s hired performers, felt the familiar, addictive return of his ego. He held a glass of the most expensive champagne, already on his third refill, blissfully unaware that his "admirers" were highly paid assets deployed for his destruction.He was the undisputed center of attention."Mr. Reed, your insights into the market collapse are truly genius," said Mark, a handsome actor playing a venture capitalist, leaning in conspiratorially, his eyes wide with feigned admiration. "To liquidate your position, even partially, just before Elysian Dynamics’ total implosion. That’s a foresight only a true market survivor possesses.""Pure instinct, my boy," Oliver slurred, his chest swelling with self-importance. He took another deep swig of champagne, savoring the burn and the validation. "I saw the signs clearly. You have to be ahead of the curve. Yo

Avery nodded slowly. "You’re right, Ashton. It’s all too sudden. I can't let him manipulate me. Not after everything. If he ever wanted peace, he wouldn’t let all this happen in the first place. And also, he never cared about Adelia anyway."She took a deep breath, shaking off the soft plea of Oliver's voice that’s still echoing in her memory. "So, what’s our response? Do we release a statement rejecting his offer?""No. We don't acknowledge the offer. We only use his desperation," Ashton countered, his eyes gleaming with focused strategy. "Oliver is spiraling, right? He's humiliated by his mother and ruined by the market. What does a man like Oliver crave when he feels powerless, Avery?" He asked her directly.Avery thought for a moment, picturing the man she had been married to. "Validation, of course. He wants to feel important. He wants to be celebrated, away from Rose’s eye and pressures.""Exactly," Ashton affirmed. "He needs to prove he’s still the heir of the Reeds, even if he
