He Spoiled His Darling With My Empire Chapter 10
The camp at the foot of the snow-covered mountain had a roaring fire.I used my satellite phone to take a call from a former subordinate overseas.The signal kept cutting out, but I could still hear his voice clearly."Ms. Russo, Vincent and Lilith are dead."I paused with a log in my hand, then casually stirred the embers with a fire poker."How did they die?" I asked."They were hiding in a slum. Lilith was going through a drug withdrawal and stole Vincent's last bit of money for painkillers."She put rat poison in Vincent's drinking water. She planned to wait for him to die, then use his money to buy drugs."But before the drug took effect, Vincent went berserk and strangled Lilith to death. "When the police showed up to collect the bodies, they found them dead on the floor of a rundown shack. Both bodies had begun to stink."A cold wind swept through the camp, making the tent flap and canvas walls rustle.The firelight flickered across my face."Understood. You don't n

It took me a year to bring Eldoria's legal and illegal logistics networks under my control.No one dared mention the Salvi family anymore.Everyone knew there was one person in the business no one could challenge.I held a controlling stake in the consortium and secured my position at the very top.At the victory banquet in Vanya, champagne towers reached the ceiling. Celebrities and politicians lined up with glasses in hand to congratulate me."Ms. Russo, your business skills are truly impressive.""It's a great honor to work with you."I stood onstage and looked out at the faces filled with awe and flattery.I was completely safe now and no longer needed grand titles to prove my worth.I called my lawyer over and signed a thick document on the spot."Everyone, effective today, I'm stepping down as the consortium's chief executive," I said. "My shares will be held in a trust, and a professional team will take care of everything that follows."The crowd erupted in shock.Th

Three months were all it took for a once-powerful family to fall apart completely.Rival families moved in and seized every last one of the Salvi family's businesses.The lights in Newerton's underground auction house were dim but glaring.I sat in a private box on the second floor and watched the auctioneer pitch his next item."Attention, bidders. This is the former Salvi family estate. Bidding starts at one million dollars."The large screen showed the house where I had lived for five years. Even the pink diamond necklace was thrown in as part of the same lot.I raised my bidding paddle. "Five million dollars. I'll take it all."My assistant leaned closer and quietly asked what I wanted done with the old items."Have the estate torn down and build an orphanage in its place. Don't leave a trace of what was there before," I said.I added, "As for the necklace, donate it at a charity gala. I don't want to keep something with such bad memories."I didn't look at the screen aga

The signing banquet was held that evening at the town's oldest estate.Dmitri raised his glass and introduced my new role to the senior members of the Eldorian consortium."To our newly appointed chief executive, Ms. Cecilia Russo.""To Ms. Russo!"Everyone raised their glasses, and the ballroom was filled with a warm, lively atmosphere.Just then, someone shoved open the estate's heavy front doors.Vincent rushed in wearing a wrinkled coat, his eyes bloodshot and his breathing ragged.His gaze swept over the crowd and locked onto me in my evening gown.Then he rushed to me as if I were his only hope. He reached out to grab my wrist."Cecilia, I've finally found you!"The bodyguards immediately stepped in and stopped him a few feet away from me.He stared at me through the black wall of suits, his chest heaving.Vincent clearly hadn't slept in days. He looked manic and didn't even pay attention to who the people around him were.As far as he was concerned, this was just a

Meanwhile, the flower-filled town in Belloria welcomed the crisp light of dawn.I wheeled my small suitcase through the gate of a local guesthouse.The white-haired owner of the place handed me a brass key.She said, "Welcome. I hope you find some peace and quiet here."I took the key and gave her a relaxed smile. "Thank you. This place is even more beautiful than I imagined."A cool breeze carrying the scent of pine brushed my cheeks.After leaving the Salvi family, even the air in this foreign country felt fresher.Meanwhile, Vincent had completely lost it in Newerton.He used every intelligence network his family controlled and paid hackers a fortune to help him search for me around the world.Finally, he found the flight details for my private jet to Belloria.As he stared at the familiar destination on his computer screen, Vincent's hands shook.He grabbed the landline receiver and called a private charter service."Arrange the flight now. I'm going to Belloria. Make i

The tablet on the desk flashed red and blared a shrill alarm beside the divorce papers.Vincent's gaze shifted between the pink diamond necklace and the signature on the papers.His head was spinning. He completely lost the composure he was usually so proud of.The door was suddenly thrown open, and a bodyguard drenched in blood stumbled and fell into the study."Don Salvi, it's terrible! Nikolai Voskov's ship is here. His men are fully armed, and they're demanding to see Donna Salvi!"Vincent slammed both hands onto the desk to steady himself.He strode forward and grabbed the bodyguard by his bloodstained collar. Vincent's eyes were bloodshot as he shouted furiously, "Where's Lilith? Didn't she take the ring with her? Tell her to handle the handover! And where are the veteran members who know how things are done?"The bodyguard coughed so hard that he could barely breathe. Blood dripped from his mouth and down his chin, landing on the back of Vincent's hand."Don Salvi, Ms.
