Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win CHAPTER 173: At Midnight
Nathan POV The kitchen table had too much food on it.Emily and Sofia had cooked pasta and garlic bread. Young Catherine had arranged the cutlery and was currently explaining to Marcus why his fork was in the wrong position.Marcus was listening with complete seriousness. As if fork placement was the most important conversation of his evening.I stood at the counter watching all of it and felt something I didn't have a good word for. "Nathan." Emily appeared beside me. She handed me a glass of wine. "Stop watching us like we're a painting.""I'm not.""You absolutely do." She leaned against the counter beside me. Our shoulders are touching. "You get it when something is happening that you want to remember."I looked at her. "Is that a problem?""No but I prefer it thoughtful.""Of course you do." She clinked her glass against mine. "Forty-seven minutes to midnight ."The acquisition is complete. Forty-seven minutes away."How do you feel?" I asked."Ask me at twelve-oh-one," she sai

Emily POVWe used the Lothan-Lotus press facility.My name on every title document. That mattered today more than any other day.Thirty journalists with twelve cameras. The whole team behind me, Davies in the front row trying to look calm. Lucas sat beside him actually calm, James with his arms folded, and at the back Marcus standing very still exactly where I'd told Nathan to put him.Nathan was to my left. Not behind me. Right beside me.I stepped up to the podium."I'll keep this short," I said. "The FIA ethics committee has confirmed that the complaint filed against my 2019 championship was processed improperly and had no evidential merit. It is withdrawn. The championship stands."A hand went up immediately.I kept talking."I'm not here to discuss where the complaint came from. That process is still running and it's not mine to speak on." I looked straight into the main camera. "I'm here to say one thing. I drove every race of the 2010 season. I earned every single point. I stoo
Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win CHAPTER 171: The Name
Nathan POVI called Blake at six AM before Emily woke up."Tell me," I said."Gerard Fontaine," Blake said. "FIA Vice President of Sporting Governance. Thirty-one years inside that organisation. Nathan, he's been there since Emily was five years old.""And Marchetti reported to him directly.""Eleven years. Fontaine authorised the internal routing that made the complaint look procedurally legitimate. He gave Becker the green light to process it." A pause. "Nathan, he was at the Barcelona race weekend. He was in the Phoenix reveal press room. He shook Emily's hand at the post-race function and smiled for a photograph."I stood at the kitchen window."She shook his hand," I said."It's already off the team's social media. I pulled it at five AM." Blake's voice was careful. "Nathan, she needs to know today. Not Thursday when Marchetti names him publicly. Today, journalists will call her for an immediate reaction and she cannot be caught unprepared.""I know. I'll tell her this morning."
Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win CHAPTER 170: Reckoning
Nathan POVDamien Reeves looked smaller than his file.I'd built a picture across months of investigation about his F1 career, the private equity fund, the operation. The man who walked into the federal conference room was quiet and hollowed out in the way people look when the structure they'd built around their life has been completely removed.He saw Emily first.He sat down across the table and looked at his hands.Sarah Morrison opened proceedings. Damien stopped her."Before the record," he said. "I need to say something."Sarah looked at Emily. Emily nodded."My father called me," Damien said. "The night of his arrest. He told me Conrad Ellis was him. That he'd been alive for six years and used that time to build an operation" He stopped. "Using me as the front. My name, my resentment, my money. He chose me because I was the most motivated asset he had."Nobody spoke."I want to be clear about two separate things," Damien said. "My grievance about the 2010 championship was real.
Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win CHAPTER 169: I Am Yours
Emily POVThe document arrived at seven AM in a cream envelope with the solicitor's seal.Mrs. Aldridge brought it to the bedroom door without knocking, which meant she knew what was inside and had decided the ceremony was appropriate. She set it on the nightstand and left without a word.Nathan was already awake. He looked at the envelope. Then at me."Open it," he said."I know what it says.""Open it anyway."I picked it up. The paper was heavy, formal, the kind that understood its own significance. I unfolded it.“Transfer of Full Ownership. Lotus-Lothan Automotive. Emily Zhou, née Lothan.”My name. The company name. Every division, every asset, every share.I read it twice. Set it on the duvet between us.Nathan looked at it. Then at me. "Say something.""I don't know what to say.""That's new.""Pick up the phone and call Marcus. It'll feel real in about thirty seconds."I called him.He answered immediately. "You got it.""Dad""Before you say anything, don't argue with me abou
Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win CHAPTER 168: Last Day On The Water
Nathan POVThe last morning arrived the way last mornings always do with the specific quality of something that knows it's finishing.Sofia understood this instinctively. She was up before anyone, sitting with her knees pulled to her chest watching the harbour wake up, quieter than she'd been all week.I sat beside her."You okay?" I asked."I don't want to go home," she said."I know.""Why can't the boat take us home?""The Thames has different berthing regulations."She looked at me. "You made that up.""I didn't. But yes, it's also not the point." I looked at the water with her. "What did you love most about this week?"She thought about it seriously. Sofia always has a thought before she speaks. People assumed because she talked fast she thought fast. She thought carefully and then talked fast. "Mommy," she said. "She laughed a lot. Real laughing, not polite laughing.""What's the difference?""Polite laughing is when she smiles with her mouth. Real laughing is when her whole fac
