Her Affair and My Parents' Peril Chapter 10
"Did you know I've lived two lifetimes?" I withdrew my hand, my voice barely above a whisper. "In my past life, you forced me to sign our divorce papers. You even strapped my parents to a drop tower and sent them to their deaths."Fiona looked up, her eyes a tempest of shock and terror."As they disintegrated in midair, their bones and flesh rained down on me like a merciless storm." I gently traced the outline of my ring finger. "Do you think saying sorry now could ever be enough?"Flashes from the cameras erupted continuously.As the new CEO of Quantum Group, all eyes drilled into me while I bent down to speak to the woman kneeling at my feet.No one could believe that the once formidable Fiona Wainwright was now curled up like a frightened child.Fiona shook her head, her voice trembling with disbelief. "No… that can't be."Ignoring her, I turned toward the cheering crowd.Her cries ripped through the air behind me. "Logan! Please, look at me!"I didn't stop.Quantum Group

Fiona had lost the one person she should have held closest to her heart.Suddenly, her phone vibrated. It was the bank's final warning.Without a second glance, she turned it off and dialed a new number."Get me Logan Grant's address in Germovia," she commanded the private detective. "I want it now."After hanging up, she gazed into the night, her thoughts spiraling deeper into obsession. "Logan," she murmured, "I won't stop until I find you."All of a sudden, her phone buzzed again. A message from the private detective had just come through."Mr. Grant will be at the opening ceremony tomorrow. I've attached his current address."At the sight of my address in Munisberg on the screen, Fiona's fists clenched with frustration. Regret slithered through her heart like a venomous snake.How could she ever reclaim the treasure she had once so recklessly pushed away?…Far away in Germovia, I jolted awake, my heart inexplicably pounding. I looked down at the ring mark on my finger an

Fiona bent down and picked up Ed's phone. He hadn't even bothered to hang up.Out of nowhere, Ed grabbed a vase and hurled it at her."Go to hell! If it weren't for your money, I wouldn't waste a second pretending to care about you!"She tilted her head just in time. The vase shattered against the wall, shards spraying across the floor.Without a pause, she seized a baseball bat and brought it down on Ed's skull. In an instant, he was sent sprawling across the floor."So, the doctor said I'll never have kids, huh?" she whispered in his ear. "Today's exam revealed a tumor instead, didn't it?"Ed's eyes widened. "Maybe... Maybe it was a misdiagnosis. You had morning sickness, didn't you? Plus, your belly seems a little bigger now."Fiona let out a bitter laugh before striking him hard across the face. Letting go, she watched him crumple to the floor in a pathetic heap."How dare you lie to me again!"Ed suddenly spat in her face."You piece of shit! If it weren't for your money

"Ms. Wainwright, you wouldn't believe what a bunch of fools Mr. Grant's sales team was!"Despite Ed's desperate attempts to quiet them, his so-called friends continued mocking me and my team without mercy.Fiona's gaze grew icy by the second. Her slender fingers drummed softly on the desk, each tap cutting through the room like a cold wind."Are you finished?"Her hushed voice was enough to silence the entire office.In that instant, the college students caught the spark of fury in Fiona's eyes."Security," she commanded, pressing the intercom. "Escort all of them out. From this moment on, they're banned from ever setting foot in Wainwright Group again.""Fiona!" Ed yelled, trying to stop her. "They're my friends! Even if you throw them out, their salaries still need to be paid!"Fiona brushed his hand aside. "Salaries? I haven't even asked for a single cent from them." She jabbed a finger at the graffiti-covered project proposals. "Look closely. Are these really the 'capable

"What did you say?"As Fiona recalled the calls from Patricia over the past two days, her face drained of color."Fiona!" Ed shouted, peeking out of the examination room. "The prenatal results are in. The doctor wants you to take a look. Let's go see how the baby's doing."Before Fiona had a chance to respond, her phone rang again.Kyle Barnaby's voice came through the line. He was the CFO, but right then, he spoke like a man who had lost all control."Ms. Wainwright! Ten key clients have simultaneously pulled out. They're saying our project is a total failure, managed by college students who don't have the expertise to handle it. To make things worse, they even found doodles all over the proposal!"As a result, they've decided they can't work with us anymore. The estimated penalty for breach of contract is 12 billion dollars!"Fiona's phone slipped from her hand, crashing to the floor.In a daze, she turned to Ed."What's wrong, Fiona?" he asked, his expression a picture of i

"What nonsense are you spouting?" I retorted, my eyes cold as ice. "Should I call Ms. Tillman and have her set things straight?"Suddenly, a sharp slap landed across my face.I stumbled back, my cheek burning with pain."Logan," Fiona said, her bloodshot eyes fixed on me. "Apologize to Ed right now, and I can overlook the watch."Ed cowered behind her, a smug smile playing on his lips.I shut my eyes, quietly blaming myself. Even though I'd seen through every one of Fiona's masks, I still instinctively tried to protect my innocence.Truth be told, she never cared one bit about my side of the story.I bit back the sting in my cheek and took a deep breath."Fiona, my lawyer informed me that the divorce papers have been finalized. I've also returned your watch. From this moment on, I have no further dealings with you."Without a second glance, I stepped into the pouring rain.The sound of chairs hitting the floor echoed behind me. Someone must have kicked them over in a burst of
