His Rejected Billionaire Wife Chapter ninety three
Lena's POVNovember moved quickly.I ran every morning. Cooked most weekends. Had two surgeries per week and one institution call. Ademi handled everything else.The apartment was gone. This was home. Both facts felt settled now without requiring thought.The cardiology association sent a formal letter the second week of November.It arrived by email to Ademi who forwarded it immediately with one line: Read this.I read it at my desk between surgeries.The association had completed preliminary review of the protocol across all fourteen active implementation sites. The six and eleven-month data was consistent, strong, and statistically significant across diverse institutional settings. They were requesting a formal presentation from me in January ahead of the February publication cycle.One hour. Their annual review committee. Washington DC.I called Ademi."January fifteenth," he said. "I already checked your schedule. You have surgery on the fourteenth. I can move it.""Move it.""Do

Adrian's POVNovember started with Chen hiring the Tokyo regional director.Her name was Yuki Tanaka. Fifteen years of financial services operations in Tokyo, previous experience opening two regional offices for European firms entering the Japanese market."She's exactly what we need," Chen said on the Monday call. "Regulatory knowledge, local network, operational experience with the specific challenges of the Japanese market.""When does she start?""December first. That gives her four months before the April launch.""What's her first priority?""Regulatory approvals. The timeline is tight. She's already built relationships with the relevant authorities from her previous role.""Good. Keep me updated weekly."He hung up. Marcus was in my doorway."Tanaka hire is confirmed," he said. "I reviewed her compensation package this morning. She negotiated well.""That's a good sign. You want someone running a regional office who knows their value.""Same reason we trusted Chen.""Exactly."

Lena's POVOctober arrived with the lease renewal notice from my apartment.It came by email on a Tuesday. Thirty days to decide whether to renew for another year or vacate.I looked at it for a long time and then closed the laptop.That evening Adrian made dinner. He'd learned three dishes properly over the summer. Tonight was the pasta one."The lease renewal came," I said.He set down the spoon. "And?""I need to decide by November first.""What are you thinking?"I thought about it honestly. "I don't know. Keeping it was the right decision a year ago. I needed somewhere entirely mine while we figured out living together.""And now?""Now living together is figured out. I know what it looks like. I know it works.""So you don't need the apartment anymore.""I don't know if that's true either."He sat down across from me. "Tell me what you're actually thinking. Not the practical version.""The practical version is that I'm paying rent on an apartment I sleep in maybe three nights a

Adrian's POVThe September board meeting was the most significant in two years.Chen presented the Tokyo proposal first. Market analysis, regulatory framework, projected timeline. Eighteen months of preliminary research compressed into a forty-minute presentation."Asia-Pacific represents our largest untapped opportunity," he said. "Tokyo specifically offers regulatory stability and a client base already familiar with our service model through referrals from our Singapore operations."Harland raised his hand immediately. "Three regions is already significant oversight. A fourth seems aggressive.""I disagree," Chen said. "I've built regional director structures in Brussels and Paris specifically to support this kind of expansion. Tokyo would operate under the same model with a director hired locally.""What's your personal involvement level?""Strategic oversight, quarterly visits, same as my current structure with Paris and Brussels.""And if something goes wrong in any of these four

Lena's POVJuly brought Cleveland Clinic and Duke both formally committing.Eleven institutions now. Ademi sent the master timeline Monday morning—a spreadsheet tracking implementation dates from Hopkins through the two newest additions, stretching into next spring."This is becoming unmanageable to track manually," he said. "I'm building a proper database.""Good idea.""You should see this as confirmation. Eleven major institutions adopting your protocol within eighteen months of publication. That's unprecedented speed for a clinical practice change.""I know.""You don't sound excited.""I am excited. I'm also tired of saying the same thing in every conversation. Eleven institutions, protocol becoming standard care, three years of work paying off.""Fair."I had two surgeries that week. Both successful. One institution call—Duke, finalizing their October timeline.Wednesday I had coffee with Sophie, who was in New York for another conference."Eleven institutions," she said when I

Adrian's POVJune settled into a rhythm neither of us had managed before.Lena's surgery schedule stayed at two per week. One institution call, twenty minutes clinical. Ademi handling everything else. She ran six mornings out of seven and cooked on weekends.I had my own version of the same adjustment.Chen ran Paris and Singapore independently. Marcus handled day-to-day New York operations. I reviewed numbers, made strategic decisions, attended board meetings. The daily crisis management that had defined the company two years ago simply didn't exist anymore."You're delegating well," Marcus said over lunch the second week of June."I learned from watching Lena almost burn herself out. Figured I should check my own pace too.""Are you overworking?""Not anymore. But I was closer to it than I realized before Paris launched.""How so?""I was checking Chen's numbers daily. Reviewing every operational decision. Acting like the company would collapse without my constant input.""And now?"

Adrian's POVI landed in New York Wednesday at two in the afternoon.Paris had launched successfully. Chen was running it independently. The facility was operational and performing above projections.But all I could think about was Lena.She'd sounded exhausted on every call from Paris. Not just ti

Adrian's POVThe morning of the surgery, I woke at five.Not because of noise or discomfort. I just opened my eyes and the room was dark and I was completely awake in the way of a man who has run out of things to avoid thinking about.Thursday. The day Lena Ashford was going to open my chest and fi

Ashford’s Pov Diana Cole was waiting outside my office at seven in the morning.She was sitting upright in the chair by the door, no assistant, no phone in her hand. Just waiting. She looked like a woman who had decided something and was prepared to follow it through without flinching.I had met D

Cole’s Pov Marcus brought me the full report on a Tuesday morning, three days before the scheduled surgery. He set a folder on the bed tray and waited while I read it. It took me twelve minutes. When I finished I closed it and looked at the wall. My father had been poisoning me for three yea
