Avery and Sarah were utterly shocked. Both of them could only stare at each other without saying anything. Elena Vance was no longer just a perfect candidate. She was a ghost, a woman with a five-year past and a history that vanished into thin air.

Ashton’s suspicion had solidified into a cold, hard certainty that this woman was a plant. The only question was, what game was she playing? He had agreed to the interview not to vet her but to study her. He needed to see his enemy up close.

  • Embraced By The Billionaire   Chapter 134: Conspiracy Behind the Scenes

    Ashton stood frozen beside Avery’s bed, holding a tablet in his left hand while his right hand still clasped her fingers that felt cold.A short message had just arrived on his device, a brief report from his vice president director stating that Skynet Global had suddenly terminated a cooperation contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars.Ashton’s jaw hardened. His eyes narrowed, radiating a cold aura he usually reserved only for his business enemies. Within seconds, his expression transformed into that of a predator sniffing out the scent of betrayal. However, the short breath beside him brought him back to his senses.Avery looked at him with weary yet inquisitive eyes. On her still pale face was an intelligence that could not be deceived by any mask."Ashton?" Avery called softly. "Is something wrong?"Ashton immediately turned off his tablet screen. He forced a faint smile, trying to soften the sharpness in his gaze. "It’s nothing, Baby. Just some office documents I need to r

  • Embraced By The Billionaire   Chapter 133: A Glimmer of Hope at the Edge of Risk

    Every time Ashton heard a soft groan escape Avery’s lips, his heart seemed to stop beating. He stood in the corner of the room, watching a nurse replace Avery’s IV bag with trembling hands. The man who could usually control millions of dollars with a single signature now felt like dust, powerless in the face of the pain endured by the woman he loved most.Doctor Harris pulled Ashton out of the room, his face showing exhaustion equal to the worry he carried.“Mr. Knight, I have to tell you once again. Her condition isn’t improving as quickly as we hoped,” the doctor said in a low tone. “Continuing this pregnancy with recurring complications is extremely risky. If a major complication occurs, the choice will no longer be about the fetus, but the mother’s life. If her blood pressure spikes again or severe bleeding occurs, we could lose them both.”Ashton shut his eyes tightly. The words “lose them both” echoed in his head like a death bell. He had just regained his memory. He had just re

  • Embraced By The Billionaire   Chapter 132: Bad News

    Outside the procedure room, Ashton paced endlessly. Lucy and Sarah sat in the waiting chairs, their faces filled with anxiety. Every minute felt like an hour. Every sound from inside the room made their hearts pound violently. Ashton blamed himself. If only he had not lost his memory, if only he had been by Avery’s side during the past two months, perhaps none of this would have happened.After what felt like an eternity, Doctor Harris emerged from the procedure room. His face looked serious, and there was even a hint of despair there.“Doctor! How is Avery? How is our baby?” Ashton immediately approached, his voice hoarse and filled with fear.Doctor Harris let out a long breath. “Miss Avery is stable for now. We managed to stop the contractions. However…” The doctor paused, looking at Ashton with a gaze that implied bad news. “The fetal heartbeat is weak, Mr. Knight. And based on the ultrasound examination, the fetus is not developing as it should. We detected signs of severe intrau

  • Embraced By The Billionaire   Bab 131: He’s Really Back

    After a heated argument with Doctor Harris and Lucy’s intervention, Ashton was finally allowed into Avery’s treatment room. The conditions were strict: only five minutes, and he must not cause any disturbance.Ashton stepped into the dim room. The soft beeping of the heart monitor machine was the only sound. On the bed, Avery looked so small and fragile. Her once radiant face was now pale, her cheekbones prominent, and dark circles framed her tightly closed eyes.Avery’s breathing sounded deep and heavy; occasionally she whimpered in her sleep, as if even in dreams she was still chased by pain. An IV line was connected to the back of her hand, which now looked extremely thin.Ashton sat on the chair beside the bed. He could not hold back his tears when he saw Avery’s belly, now beginning to slightly swell beneath the thin blanket. There was a life he had forgotten. There was proof of their love that had nearly been destroyed by Carol Bennet’s selfishness.“Ave…” he whispered very soft

  • Embraced By The Billionaire   Chapter 130: The Return of a Soulmate

    Ashton Knight stood upright in the middle of the room. He no longer looked like the dazed man who stared at the world with empty eyes. His sharp gaze now glimmered with returning intelligence, yet behind it lay a wound so deep. He remembered everything. He remembered how he had looked at Avery coldly in the hospital.He remembered how he had been influenced to call the woman he loved the most “a stranger seeking profit.” And he remembered how he had allowed Carol Bennet to poison his mind over the past two months.“Bastard,” he whispered softly. His voice was hoarse, heavy with anger toward himself.Downstairs, the atmosphere was far more chaotic. Carol Bennet stood in front of the large living room window, her hand gripping the handle of a porcelain teacup until her knuckles turned white. Her usually perfectly composed face now appeared cracked by blazing fury.After being driven away yesterday, she decided to return to see Ashton without the slightest sense of shame or guilt. In fro

  • Embraced By The Billionaire   Chapter 129: A Scent That Called Back Memories

    That night, in the quiet villa of Carol Bennet, Ashton lay on his bed. The headache from his encounter with Adelia earlier still lingered faintly, yet unease continued to haunt him. He tried to sleep, but his mind refused to rest. Something whispered, something urgent, telling him that there was an important part of himself he needed to find.When he finally fell asleep, the nightmare came again. This time clearer, more terrifying, like a documentary film he was watching firsthand.He was inside a helicopter. The roaring sound of the blades was deafening. Beside him sat a woman. Her hair was long, her face filled with anxiety, yet her eyes looked at him with deep love. Ashton tried to reach for her hand. The soft scent of her perfume, a mixture of rose and vanilla, felt incredibly familiar.Suddenly, a violent jolt struck. The helicopter lurched. The window glass shattered, and roaring wind rushed in with a deafening noise. There were screams, panic. And just before the fatal impact,
