Emily glanced around for Scott. She couldn't find him.

She followed the crowd and sat at an empty table.

She'd barely settled in when Patricia Caldwell took the seat in front of her.

Patricia smiled.

"Well, hello to you too." She wore a wide grin.

    Scott’s heart hammered in his chest.No.Emily would never betray me.She said she trusts me.We just made love.No.His phone rang. Paul.Scott ignored it.His phone rang again.This time it was Cooper.Scott ignored it.It rang again. Still Cooper.Scott ignored it again.There was no point telling him half-truths. Until he heard from Emily herself, he wasn’t making any conclusions.Could she?Hell no. She wouldn’t.Either way, Hunter Autos had already announced production. They’d already lost.Fuck.He and Cooper had worked on that idea for at least five years.It was supposed to be the future of Horizon.All of a sudden, it was gone.Lost to his rival.Of all the people who could have gotten their hands on the project.It had to be him.Fresh dread crawled up Scott’s skin.This is a disaster.Ian said it was Emily.No.Impossible.His phone rang again.Cooper.Shit.How was he supposed to explain to his partner that the woman he’d just met and married—who was the ex of his half-br

    “They’re killing us, Paul.”Scott rubbed his temple.“I thought this would be over by now and I’d be back in LA.”“We have to be patient, Mr. Hunter.” Paul adjusted his glasses.“The autopsy report they brought confirms Prof. Bussior’s cause of death is poisoning. That changes everything.”“Fuck. How the fuck—I literally called the ambulance when I found him. Why would I—”“They’re claiming you ended their father’s life because you wanted to steal the formula.”“Yes, I know what they’re claiming, Paul.”Scott raised his hand dismissively.He paced around Paul’s office. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead.“I’m sorry, Paul. It’s just—I’m not even supposed to be here. How long do you think this will take?”“Next hearing is tomorrow. Maybe a week at most—we’ll know if it goes to trial.”“Trial?”“Yes. There’s a possibility it could—”Scott raised his hand again.He sighed heavily and collapsed into the chair.His phone rang.Cooper. He hadn’t seen him since he landed in New York.Maybe

    Jane’s phone chimed. Text message. Susan. [I can meet in 20 minutes. Send the address.]After Susan’s call a few days ago, Jane had been curious about her motivations.[11b Blairworth. Kevin’s Cuisine]If they were meeting, it had to be on Jane’s turf. She couldn’t take any risks.She put her phone on the table. Kevin walked in from the back, wiping his hands on his apron.“Jane Sullivan. Beautiful as ever.”“Get over yourself Kevin, I’m not in the mood.”“Fine, fine. I hear you, you never are.”Kevin had always had a crush on her since high school. When they reconnected he had become a successful chef. He asked her to marry him. She said no because by then she was already working for Ian, and Patricia was grooming her to be the future matriarch of the Hunter empire.Kevin was rich. But he wasn’t Hunter rich. Even after she told him no. He said he will wait for her to change his mind. He still couldn’t say no to her.And she used that ruthlessly.“Did you get the pictures?”Ke

    "It's rude and disrespectful to walk into someone's room uninvited, Susan."Emily was tired of everyone trying to walk over her.Jane. Kevin. Her father.And Susan definitely wasn't going to get a chance.She saw the shock on Susan's face."And who the hell do you think you are talking to me that way, you charity case?" Susan snapped.Emily's anger boiled and spilled over.Emily stood."I am Mrs. Hunter. The woman of this house. You should show some respect or show yourself out."Susan froze.A satisfying feeling washed over Emily.It was intoxicating."One phone call to Scott and you'll be out of the house.""Why you—""Watch your tone, Susan."Emily saw Susan's eyes go red with rage.Susan's mouth opened. Closed.Then she turned and stormed out.A rush flooded Emily's veins.Power.She'd never felt anything like it.Then Scott's words played in her head."You're the wife of a billionaire. You can do whatever you want."Emily giggled.For weeks, Susan made her feel unwelcome.Not any

    Emily stood in front of Kevin’s Cuisine.Drenched in spoiled milk.The stench clung to her hair, her skin, her clothes.The construction workers around her started moving back.They were all staring. Some whispered. Others covered their noses, faces twisting in disgust.She looked up and saw Jane’s car speeding off.Emily’s feet were stuck to the ground.Where was she even supposed to begin?How do you recover from this?“What’s going on?” Kevin’s voice cut through the murmurs.The crowd parted.She saw his eyes widen with surprise.“What the hell, Em?” He moved toward her.Emily couldn’t speak.Aside from the fact that she was still recovering from shock, she was also worried that if she opened her mouth, the spoiled milk would drip in.Almost like Kevin understood the situation perfectly.“Come. First let’s get you cleaned up.”He gestured, and she followed him.They went into the restaurant, past the setup, all the way to the back.Emily was dripping everywhere.“Sorry about—the fl

    “If Ian doesn’t win, it’s over for all of us, Jane.” Patricia’s tone was sharp. “Even if that means sabotaging Scott Hunter, then so be it.”Every month Patricia organized a meeting at her bookstore—dusty shelves, the same worn leather chair where Patricia delivered her ultimatums.Now it was all about the inheritance.And Jane was the closest Patricia would get to it.And now Nate was involved too.A means to an end. That’s all Jane and Nate were to Patricia.Jane’s hands clenched into fists.“I’m working on it.”“Work faster.” Patricia snapped. “God, when Silvia was alive it didn’t take this much to get money from the Hunters.”“It’s not magic. These things take time.”“I’m not sure what you guys are talking about.” Nate leaned back, arms behind his head. “Nothing takes time with me.”Jane’s heart jumped. She knew exactly what he meant.“You in?” she asked her brother.“In like an 8 ball.”“You’ve always been the smarter one.” Patricia smiled at Nate.Jane’s jaw tightened.Here we g

    Emily swallowed her food and almost choked.“Susan—”“No one paid me to do anything.” Emily cut Scott off.No way. She had too much pent-up anger to back down.“I guess that leaves one other option.”Their eyes met.Emily knew what she meant.“You’re implying we’re married for money?”“If the shoe
