LOGINXAVIER'S POV “Edmund Vale,” I said as I stared at the photograph on the investigation screen, the name finally giving a face to the person who had remained hidden behind every piece of the conspiracy. “You're telling me this man helped establish Griffins Enterprises and disappeared years ago?” I kept looking at the old photograph, trying to connect the respectable businessman in front of me with the person responsible for everything we had uncovered. “Yes,” the investigator confirmed as he placed another file beside the photograph. “Edmund Vale was one of the original businessmen involved in establishing Griffins Enterprises, but he disappeared from public life shortly afterward. Officially, he was presumed dead, but the records we've recovered suggest that was never true.” I felt the weight of the discovery settle over me as another piece of the puzzle finally found its place. I opened the file and began reading through the recovered documents, finding references to investment gro
AURORA'S POV “Carter Mills has been found,” the investigator told me as he stepped into Xavier's office, his expression serious as he placed a thick evidence folder on the desk. “He's being held at the central investigation facility, and the team wants you and Xavier present before they begin questioning him.” My heart immediately tightened because after everything we had uncovered, hearing Carter's name again felt like another door opening into the past. Xavier looked at me before reaching for the folder. “What changed?” he asked as he opened it and quickly scanned the first few pages. “Yesterday, Carter was still refusing to cooperate, so why are they suddenly asking us to come in?” The investigator explained that the recovered financial records had changed the situation because they showed Carter had continued receiving payments from the organization even after his father's death. “Then let's go,” I said as I stood from my chair. “If Carter knows who was behind Daniel's death a
XAVIER'S POV“Play it again,” I said as I stared at the small recording device on the table, my voice barely steady enough to sound like my own. “I need to hear exactly what Daniel said.” Aurora sat beside me, close enough that I could feel the warmth of her shoulder against mine, while Steve remained across from us, watching the device as the recording began again.Daniel's voice filled the room, older and tired but unmistakably his, and the sound immediately dragged me fourteen years into the past. “If you're hearing this, Xavier, then I didn't get the chance to finish what I started,” Daniel said through the recording, his breathing uneven as though he knew someone might be listening. “I need you to understand that Carter Mills Sr. was never the person controlling the organization. He was only the man moving the money.”Aurora's fingers tightened around mine as she listened, and I could feel the tension building in her hand. Daniel continued explaining that Mills had handled paymen
AURORA'S POV“Steve?” I whispered as I stared at the final entry on the screen, unable to understand how his name could be sitting inside a hidden list of people connected to the organization. “Why is your name on this list?” My hands remained frozen above the keyboard while Xavier stood beside me, his expression hardening as he looked from the screen to Steve.“Don't jump to conclusions,” Xavier warned as he stepped between Steve and the workstation. “A name appearing on this list doesn't automatically mean Steve betrayed us.” His voice was controlled, but I could hear the tension underneath it, and for once, I wasn't sure whether he was trying to protect Steve or me.Steve slowly approached the screen and stared at his name. “I knew this day would eventually come,” he admitted as he exhaled heavily and rubbed a hand across his face. “I just hoped I would have more time before you found this.”“You knew your name was here?” I asked as I turned toward him, my confusion quickly becomin
XAVIER’S POV “Preserve every page exactly where it is,” I ordered, stepping toward the printer as another sheet slid onto the tray. “Nobody folds anything, nobody removes a document from this room without photographing it first, and I want the entire printer isolated until the forensic team confirms how those pages were produced,” I instructed, watching the security officers immediately move into position around the boardroom. Aurora stood beside me, staring at the forged transfer agreement as though the document itself had personally betrayed her. Her lawyer arrived within minutes and carefully examined the signature, comparing it with several verified documents from Aurora's trust records. After studying the signature under magnification, he finally looked up at us with a grim expression. “This is not Aurora's signature,” he confirmed, pointing toward the inconsistencies in the lettering and pressure marks. “Someone copied her signature from an existing document and reproduced it
AURORA’S POV “I'm not leaving this building,” I said as Xavier reached for my arm, his expression tightening when another security officer hurried past us toward the executive elevators. “Someone just tried to access my shares, and now we've discovered the device came from inside the executive wing. If I walk away now, we lose our best chance of finding whoever is behind this,” I added, refusing to move as the security doors began closing around us. Xavier looked toward Steve before turning back to me. “Aurora, this isn't the same situation we were dealing with an hour ago,” he said firmly, lowering his voice as employees were instructed to remain at their desks. “Someone inside this building has access to your private information and the hidden committee's account. Until we know who that person is, I need you somewhere they can't reach you,” he explained, clearly more concerned about my safety than my argument. “I understand that you're worried about me, but hiding me won't solve

Aurora's POVI wanted to follow my plans according to what I jotted down last night, but I couldn't. I saw a beautiful opportunity to jump to number 2, which says ‘seduce Uncle X’, and that's what I am about to do. Diana wasn't home, this was my trump card.I passed by his room, and I caught him si
Aurora's POV I didn't think these two naughty girls were being serious until they appeared at my house. They came here mainly for the purpose of seeing Uncle X. They went crazy after sighting him on school grounds earlier, and being the naughty girls they were, they came to see him personally.
>>> Present Xavier’s POV Damn! I watched as her receding figure faded from my presence, she was still the emotional little girl I used to know… Little? No! She isn't so little anymore. When she hugged me earlier at the airport, I felt those firm, round, juicy boobs of hers pressed onto my chest
