I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 83 — Jealousy Without a Right To It
The gala was one of the biggest annual events Kael’s family usually attended. It was a fundraiser for a children’s hospital his grandmother had helped establish decades ago. This year, he arrived alone, and the absence of a date beside him drew occasional curious glances from guests who remembered seeing him arrive with Serena on his arm in previous years.He saw Elara almost as soon as he entered. She stood near one of the tall windows overlooking the hotel’s garden terrace, deep in conversation with Marcus. Something tightened in his chest before he had even fully understood why.She looked relaxed in a way he hadn't seen from her in weeks, maybe longer, her posture easy, unguarded, something genuinely warm crossed her face as Marcus said something that made her laugh, a real laugh, nothing performed about it at all.Kael stood near the bar, a drink he hadn't asked for pressed into his hand by a passing server, he found himself unable to look away, watching the easy, comfortable dyn
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 82 — Marcus's Feelings Deepen
Marcus chose a restaurant far from the industry crowd. A small, simple Italian place on a quiet side street. Nothing about it announced status or a special occasion. Just good food, low lighting, and room for an actual conversation.Elara arrived looking visibly more relaxed than he'd seen her in weeks, dressed casually rather than in the composed, professional look she usually wore, and Marcus felt something warm settle into his chest at the sight of her. Her expression was unguarded and comfortable, and she allowed herself, even briefly, to exist outside the weight of everything she'd been carrying."This is nice," she said, settling into her seat, glancing around the quiet, simple restaurant. "No industry contacts pretending to recognize us from across the room.""That was very deliberate," Marcus said, smiling. "I wanted somewhere you could actually eat a meal without calculating who might be watching."They ordered, and the conversation drifted easily through the evening, moving
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 81 — International Attention
The email arrived on a Tuesday morning, forwarded to Elara by Priya with three exclamation points in the subject line, and Elara read through it twice before letting herself fully believe what it actually represented.A major international investment group, one with offices across three continents and a portfolio significant enough that Elara had studied their public filings more than once as a benchmark for the kind of scale Vale Capital might eventually reach. They had reached out directly, expressing interest in exploring a formal partnership or potential acquisition of a meaningful stake in Vale Capital itself."This is enormous," Priya said, practically vibrating with excitement as she stood in Elara's office doorway. "Do you understand what this means? If this actually works out, we're not just a firm people are watching anymore. We become a firm operating on an entirely different level.”"I understand," Elara said, she felt the genuine thrill of it settle inside her, alongside
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 80 — The Unglamorous Work
Dr. Patel’s office was on the fourth floor of an ordinary downtown building. Nothing about it hinted at the quiet, difficult work Kael had been doing there twice a week for the past several weeks now. No one from his usual world would likely recognize him as he walked through the lobby or sat in the small, plain waiting room, surrounded by simple furniture and soft lighting.He had started seeing her shortly after the encounter with Elara in the parking garage. The raw honesty and vulnerability of that night had lingered with him, eventually forcing him to confront what he had been privately denying for months.He hadn’t told anyone about the therapy. Not his father, not Julian, and not even Wren, who probably would have understood better than anyone if he had chosen to tell her.He hadn’t started therapy to prove anything to anyone. That distinction mattered to him as he sat in Dr. Patel’s office each week, slowly realizing that this kind of personal work only had value if he did it
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 79 — Her Answer
Elara stood in the quiet garage, the words he'd just said settled into her chest with a weight she hadn't fully prepared herself for, and felt something old and complicated rise up underneath the careful composure she'd spent over a year building, brick by brick, into something she'd genuinely believed had become unshakeable.The composure wasn't unshakeable. She understood that now, standing there, and feeling the truth of his admission land somewhere she hadn't guarded quite carefully enough.In the long silence that stretched between them, she thought about every version of this moment she might once have imagined, back during the marriage, lying awake beside a husband who felt more like a stranger than a partner, wondering whether he might someday, somehow, say something exactly like this to her. She'd wanted it then, desperately, quietly.She didn't feel that hunger now. She felt something else entirely, grief layered over grief, old and new tangled together in a way that made th
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 78 — The Admission
Kael was walking toward his car in the parking garage beneath a downtown office building, exhausted after a late evening meeting that had run far longer than scheduled, when he heard footsteps behind him and turned to find Elara stepping out of the elevator area, her own briefcase in hand, clearly leaving a meeting of her own somewhere in the same building.Neither of them spoke for a moment. The unexpected encounter hung awkwardly between them in the concrete silence of the mostly empty garage."Late meeting?" Elara asked finally, her tone neutral, neither warm nor cold."Board strategy session," Kael said. "Ran longer than anyone expected. You?""Investor update. Same story." She continued toward her car, and Kael found himself falling into step beside her; he hadn’t consciously decided to follow, they were simply heading in the same direction.They walked in silence for a moment, their footsteps echoing softly through the concrete garage as the fluorescent lights overhead cast an e
