The news reached Cooper Holdings quietly, but its impact was anything but.

A financial auditor, one of the most meticulous and cautious men in the firm’s external regulatory team, was found dead in what authorities quickly labeled an accident.

The official statement said he slipped while inspecting a private property connected to one of Cooper Holdings’ subsidiary firms. A fall from a balcony. A tragic misstep. A man who had simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time.

But in a world already thick with tension and unanswered questions, no one truly believed in coincidences anymore.

Austin was the one who told Eva.

He did not do it in the middle of a meeting or over the phone. He waited until she was back at home, seated in the quiet of the living room, reviewing documents with a tired focus. When he walked in, his face was serious in a way that made her immediately look up.

“What is it?” she asked, her instincts already tightening.

“There’s been an incident,” Austin said carefull

A fall from a balcony. A tragic misstep. A man who had simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time.But in a world already thick with tension and unanswered questions, no one truly believed in coincidences anymore.The whispers started immediately. In boardrooms and hallways, over carefully worded emails and hushed phone calls, people asked the same question: what had he been looking into? The answer, when it came, only deepened the unease. Financial records. Account transfers. The same period that kept surfacing in connection with Amira's name.Austin was the one who told Eva.He did not do it in the middle of a

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 100: Flowers for the Departed

    Amira Finley was buried in a silence that did not feel like peace.The funeral was private, almost painfully so. No press. No flashing cameras. No public spectacle. Only a small gathering of people who had either loved her, feared her, or been tangled in her life in ways they would never fully explain.The cemetery sat at the edge of the city, far enough away that traffic noise did not intrude. Tall trees swayed gently in the soft afternoon breeze, their leaves whispering above the neat rows of gravestones.The sky was pale, neither sunny nor gloomy, as if even the weather could not decide how it felt about the woman being laid to rest.A modest white casket rested near the open grave, surrounded by flowers that spoke louder than the mourners themselves. Lilies. Roses. Orchids. Each bouquet carried its own quiet story.One of them had no name attached.Eva had arranged it early that morning through a private service. She chose simple white flowers, nothing extravagant, nothing that wo

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 99: The Hidden Truths

    Emerson had learned, over the years, that the most dangerous threats rarely announced themselves loudly. They arrived quietly, buried beneath routine, hidden inside patterns most people were too distracted to notice.That was why he trusted unease more than certainty. And right now, unease followed him like a shadow.He did not tell Eva what he was doing.Not yet.Outwardly, everything remained normal. He showed up to work. He attended meetings. He listened when Eva spoke about restructuring plans and future projections. But beneath that calm exterior, he was pulling threads, one by one, careful not to unravel anything too quickly.He started with old contacts—people he had met during his years of international consultancy, regulatory oversight, and crisis management.Men and women who worked in places that never appeared on business cards. People who asked questions without recording them and answered without leaving traces.He sent short messages. Made discreet calls. Used channels

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 98: When Work Becomes Shelter

    Eva returned to work the way some people returned to prayer, not because it erased pain, but because it gave pain somewhere to sit without destroying everything else.The Mills Corporation headquarters buzzed with its usual controlled urgency the morning she walked in. Polished floors reflected ceiling lights. Staff greeted her with respectful nods.Nothing had changed here. That steadiness was exactly why she came.If she stayed home, her mind would wander.If she stayed idle, memories would become loud.So she chose movement. Purpose. Structure.Her heels clicked against the marble floor as she walked into the executive wing, posture straight, expression composed. To anyone watching, Eva Mills looked like a woman fully in control of her life.Only she knew how much discipline it took to hold that line.Inside her office, the glass walls let in soft morning light. The city stretched beyond the windows—alive, indifferent, moving forward without apology. She paused briefly, placing her

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 97: The Man on Hoodies

    Bradley did not hear the news the way people usually did.There was no dramatic phone call in the middle of the night, no frantic knock on his door, no voice breaking through tears. It came to him in the most ordinary way possible, through his assistant, standing stiffly by the office door, voice low and unsure, as though afraid the words might shatter something if spoken too loudly.“Sir… Amira Finley passed away early this morning.”That was all.No elaboration. No condolences yet. Just the fact, laid bare.Bradley did not respond.He simply sat there, his body frozen in the leather chair, eyes fixed on a point on the wall that meant nothing. The world around him seemed to dim, as though someone had slowly turned down the lights.The assistant waited for a few seconds, then a few more. When it became clear no response was coming, he quietly stepped out and closed the door behind him.Bradley was alone.Minutes passed. Or maybe hours. He could not tell.Guilt came first.Not grief. N
