HIS SECRET ADDICTION CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
Alex's POVI submitted my resignation an hour after the vote.Damien didn't ask me to. Didn't even know I was doing it until I handed him a copy of the letter I'd sent to HR. We were back at his apartment, sitting in the wreckage of everything that had just happened."What did you do?" he asked, reading it."What I should have done in the board room. Removed myself from the situation." I sat across from him. "Sterling can't use our relationship against you anymore if I don't work there.""I don't work there either.""Not officially. But Victoria and Marcus are already planning how to get you back. I heard them on the phone in the car." I leaned forward. "They can't do that if Sterling keeps pointing to me as evidence of your poor judgment. So I'm gone. Clean break.""You loved that job.""I loved the work. The company?" I shrugged. "It's just a company. There are others."He set the letter down. "You're doing it again.""Doing what?""Building an exit strategy. Making yourself expenda

Damien's POVChen arrested David Reeves at six in the morning.I got the call at six fifteen while Alex was still asleep. They'd picked him up at his apartment with a warrant. Found fifty thousand dollars in cash hidden in a closet safe. He'd lawyered up immediately and wasn't talking.By seven, the story was on three business news sites. By eight, Sterling had called an emergency board meeting for ten.Alex woke up to me sitting on the edge of the bed, already dressed."It's happening," he said. Not a question."Board meeting at ten. Sterling's calling the vote. Chen arrested Reeves an hour ago." I stood. "This is it."He got up without another word. We moved around each other in the bathroom, getting ready in silence. There wasn't much to say that we hadn't already said.In the car, he reached for my hand."Whatever happens today," he said, "we figure out what comes next together."I nodded. Couldn't quite manage words yet.**************,****The board room was packed by nine forty

Alex's POVBy Wednesday we'd eliminated eight names from the list.Background checks came back clean. Financial records showed nothing suspicious. No connections to Maya beyond normal work interactions. That left four people: two senior accountants, one operations manager, and Sophie.Damien still couldn't let go of his suspicion about Sophie, even though every piece of evidence said she was clean."She has motive," he said Wednesday night. We were spread out across his living room floor with printouts and laptops. "Legal sees everything. She'd know exactly how to move money without getting caught.""She'd also know that eventually someone would find it," I countered. "Sophie's too smart to leave a trail this obvious if she was actually involved.""Unless the trail is intentionally obvious. Pointing us away from something bigger."I set down the file I was reading. "Damien, you need to stop. You're spiraling.""I'm being thorough.""You're fixating because you can't accept that you mi

Damien's POVThe board meeting started exactly at nine.All ten members were present. Sterling at one end of the table, me at the other. Victoria and Marcus flanking me. Sophie took notes because that was her job, and I still had no proof she was anything other than what she appeared to be."Thank you all for coming on short notice," I said. "We've discovered additional issues related to the Maya Patel investigation that require immediate disclosure."Sterling leaned back in his chair. "More issues. Wonderful."I ignored him and pulled up the presentation Marcus had prepared. "Our internal audit has identified a network of shell vendors created by Maya over the past eight years. Total funds moved through these fake companies: eight point three million dollars."The room went silent."Eight million," Henderson repeated. "How did this go undetected?""Maya controlled the vendor approval system. She created the checks and balances she was supposed to be monitored by." I clicked to the ne
