Marcus POV

Emily had been unconscious for forty-eight hours when her vitals crashed. Alarms blared

throughout the quarantine medical bay, physicians rushing to stabilize her as I watched

helplessly through the observation glass.

"Heart rate dropping!" Dr. Chen shouted. "Administering epinephrine. Prepare defibrillator

if cardiac arrest occurs!"

Nathan stood frozen beside me, face white as a ghost . "She's dying. Blake, she's dying right in

front of us"

"She's not dying." I said firmly, though m

  • Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win    CHAPTER 189: What Blake Knew

    Blake POVI saw her the moment she stepped out of the elevator.Twenty years of managing people who didn't want to be managed had given me a particular skill reading situations even before the Sinclair's entrance at ten forty-seven PM on the night of a race we had just won was not for a business arrangement .A business entrance is a handshake and a Gerald.This was a Vera Wang gown, a personal assistant carrying nothing but a clutch bag, and awoman who had redirected a private flight from Hong Kong because she saw a race result.I crossed the room to intercept before she reached Nathan but I didn't make it in time.She'd already asked for him at the front desk and she already knew what floor we were on. She had come through the entrance like someone who had an agenda in mind rather than a room to enter.I watched her cross to Emily instead and that surprised me.Emily first, then Nathan.I stood at the edge of the room and did what I had been doing for eight months, which was manag

  • Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win    CHAPTER 188: The Woman At The Door Emily POV

    Emily POVI knew before I saw her.Not because Nathan had told me anything or Marcus had said more than he did.But because I had spent seven years in a marriage to a man who thought I couldn't read aroom and I had learned to read every room I walked into before I cleared the doorway.The Sinclair delegation was six people. Four of them were business while the other assistants flanked a senior partnership director named Gerald who Blake had worked with before. I met Gerald in London three months ago. He was sixty, efficient and completely without pretension.The other two were Isabella Sinclair and a woman I didn't recognise who appeared to be apersonal assistant rather than a business one.Isabella was thirty-three. I knew her profile the way I knew every major player in any industry similar to ours. Sinclair Industries had been a potential partner for eight months. I read her business record, she had a Stanford MBA and her lifestyle brand was genuinelyimpressive, profitable and

  • Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win    CHAPTER 187: The Celebration

    Nathan POVThe post-race gala was held on the fifty-third floor of the Marina Bay Sands.Lotus had booked the entire sky terrace. The city spread out below us in every direction,lights reflecting off the water, the circuit still visible from the east side of the building wherethe barriers hadn't been removed yet. Someone had arranged for the trophy to be placed atthe entrance where every guest walked past it coming in.Emily's name on the base, “Singapore Grand Prix. First place.”I stood at the bar watching the room and felt something I hadn't let myself feel in a longtime.Genuine happiness.That was the only word for it, the race was done and the points were banked. Davies wasacross the room telling someone the story of his overtake at turn eleven with both hands involved in the demonstration. Lucas was on the terrace with his wife looking at the city below them. James had a drink for the first time all weekend and was talking to Claire.Blake appeared at my shoulder. "Champio

  • Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win    CHAPTER 186: Lights Out Singapore

    Emily POVRace morning in Singapore felt nothing like Silverstone.Silverstone was open and loud with the energy of a home crowd that had been waiting all year. It was electric and blazing with heat that sat on your skin before you'd even stepped outside. The city was already awake at seven AM boats on the marina, the skyline catching early light, everything slightly surreal the way Singapore always was. I sat on the hotel balcony having a conversation with myself.Having two thoughts like I always do.The scared side said “Hoffman is twenty-six and has been the fastest driver on this grid for two seasons. He knows this circuit better than you. He qualified eight hundredths faster. You grazed a wall in practice and these streets are unforgiving.”The other side said “you found the wall and went deeper the next lap. You found six hundredths in turn five at midnight because your daughter texted you from boarding school. You have been building toward this race for seven years.”I listen

  • Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win    CHAPTER 185: Singapore

    Emily POVSingapore at night was a different planet.The circuit ran through the city streets under floodlights that turned everything sharp and electric. The barriers were closer than Silverstone, closer than Barcelona. Every mistake was immediate and unforgiving. There was no runoff to save you. I had wanted to drive this circuit since I was twenty-two.Standing in the garage at midnight Thursday for the final practice session, looking at the data from the first two free practice sessions, I understood why.This circuit would tell you the truth about yourself."Talk to me," I said to James."Sector one is yours," he said. "Your pace through the Marina Bay section is half a second faster than Davies. You're comfortable with the barriers." He pulled up the screen. "Sector two is where we're losing time. The tight stuff around turn fourteen through seventeen. Emily, you're braking too early.""The walls are close.""I know. But your braking markers are conservatively placed. You have m

  • Goodbye My Billionaire Ex-Husband Watch Me Win    CHAPTER 184: Sunday Evening

    Nathan POVThe team dinner was loud and warm, it went on two hours longer than planned.Forty-three people around long tables in a Northamptonshire pub that had probably never hosted a Formula One victory celebration and handled it with complete British composureWe ordered more fish and chips, more drinks poured, no fuss made about the trophy sitting at the end of the bar.Davies made a speech that was mostly about Emily's turn nine exit and ended with him saying he intended to be faster than her by Singapore. The table responded to this with the specific energy of people who loved him and didn't believe him.Lucas said three words. "Best day yet." Sit back down. The table cheered.James stood up last, looking at Emily across the room."Six months ago," he said, "Emily Zhou walked into a technical briefing with a laptop, a chassis philosophy, and a corner exit theory that none of us fully understood yet. She told us we were going to compete." He paused. "P1 and P2 today. P3 in the co
