I barely slept that night.

The anonymous note sat inside the drawer of my bedside table, hidden beneath a stack of documents. I had read it so many times that its words were practically engraved in my mind.

Ask your husband why he allowed the Vale shares to be transferred.

It was a simple sentence, but it had created a question I could no longer ignore.

Why Adrian?

The documents Miriam had shown me connected the suspicious transfer to Westbridge Holdings, a company with ties to the Kingsley bus

  • I Transmigrated Into The Billionaire’s Hated Wife    Chapter 30:The signature

    Evelyn read the document three times.The scanned declaration Adrian had sent was only two pages long. Its language was formal, its clauses carefully arranged, and its purpose appeared straightforward.Seraphina Vale had supposedly approved the transfer of her shares in Vale Atelier to Westbridge Holdings.At the bottom was her signature.It looked convincing.Too convincing.“That’s the same signature from the earlier authorization,” Miriam observed.“Celeste said the first one was forged.”“She examined the original authorization. This is a different document. We need to establish whether the signature was copied from the same source.”Evelyn enlarged the image.The declaration carried a date three days before Seraphina’s hospital admission. It also contained a clause stating that the transfer could proceed without further consultation, provided the company fulfilled certain financial obligations.“Why would Seraphina agree to this when she was already fighting Nathaniel over the sh

  • I Transmigrated Into The Billionaire’s Hated Wife    Chapter 29:What Vivian kept

    Evelyn read Vivian’s messages twice before responding.I wasn’t the person who signed the second agreement. I only helped them make it look that way.The words did not erase Vivian’s earlier confession. If anything, they made her more suspicious.She had admitted accepting money after Seraphina’s hospital admission. She had also acknowledged helping Nathaniel with the transaction. Now she was changing her story.Evelyn placed her phone on the table.“She’s either frightened enough to start telling the truth or desperate enough to invent another version.”Miriam closed the file she had been reviewing.“Either way, we shouldn’t meet her without precautions.”They agreed on a crowded hotel restaurant, with Miriam present and their own transportation arranged. Evelyn also sent Adrian a brief message informing him that she would be meeting Vivian. She did not ask for his permission.His response came almost immediately.Don’t go alone.She left the message unanswered.Vivian was already se

  • I Transmigrated Into The Billionaire’s Hated Wife    Chapter 28:The Woman behind the orders

    Evelyn replayed the recording three times.The final words remained unmistakable.Understood, Mrs. Kingsley.Someone had been giving Nathaniel instructions, and whoever that person was had enough influence to make him obey.There was only one woman who could carry that title within the family.Eleanor.But Evelyn wasn’t ready to accept that conclusion.She forwarded the recording to Miriam and requested a forensic examination. Then she called Adrian.He arrived at the study twenty minutes later.After listening to the audio, his expression hardened.“My mother?”“I don’t know. The voice could be hers, but I won’t accuse her based on a recording we haven’t authenticated.”Adrian replayed the final seconds.“I’ve heard her speak to Nathaniel like that before.”Evelyn looked at him.“Like what?”“Giving him instructions. They’re not as close as they appear. My mother has always had influence over certain family decisions, even when Nathaniel was the one publicly handling them.”It was th

  • I Transmigrated Into The Billionaire’s Hated Wife    Chapter 27:The signature he never gave

    Evelyn placed the hospital document between herself and Adrian.“You’re certain you didn’t sign this?”“Yes.”His answer was immediate, but she had learned that certainty alone wasn’t proof.Adrian examined the page again.“I visited Seraphina that night. She was unconscious when I arrived. Nathaniel was outside her room, and we argued. But I never authorized any medical procedure.”“Vivian said you stayed with her for nearly an hour.”“I did. She was my wife.”There was something uncomfortable about hearing him say it. Not because she believed he had suddenly become a devoted husband, but because the woman he had once treated with suspicion had been lying unconscious while people made decisions about her future.Evelyn picked up the document.“We need the hospital’s original record.”“I’ll arrange access.”“No. Miriam will handle it. I don’t want another request submitted through your family’s office.”Adrian looked displeased but didn’t object.Miriam contacted the hospital’s legal

  • I Transmigrated Into The Billionaire’s Hated Wife    Chapter 26:Eleanor’s move

    Evelyn arrived at Kingsley Corporation shortly before the emergency board meeting.The complaint bearing Eleanor’s signature had changed the atmosphere inside the company. Employees spoke in lowered voices, and several senior executives had already gathered outside the conference room.Adrian met her near the elevators.“You shouldn’t be here,” he said.“Your mother’s complaint concerns the same transactions that destroyed Seraphina’s company. I have every reason to be here.”He didn’t argue.Instead, he handed her a copy of the document.Eleanor had formally requested an independent review of the Vale Atelier transactions, including the disputed share transfer and the second agreement. She had also requested that Nathaniel be temporarily removed from decisions involving the company’s legal and financial restructuring.It was an unusually direct move.“She knows this will put her under scrutiny too,” Evelyn observed.“That’s what I don’t understand,” Adrian replied. “She signed the se

  • I Transmigrated Into The Billionaire’s Hated Wife    Chapter 25:Vivian’s version

    Evelyn didn’t sleep well.The scanned statement bearing Vivian’s name remained open on her laptop. It was difficult to ignore the possibility that the woman who had once been Seraphina’s closest confidante had helped take her company away from her.But Evelyn had learned not to trust documents simply because they appeared convincing.By ten the following morning, she had arranged to meet Vivian.The meeting was at a quiet hotel restaurant. Miriam had advised her against going alone, so she waited at a nearby table while Evelyn approached the woman seated beside the window.Vivian looked surprised when she saw her.“Seraphina?”“Evelyn,” she corrected, taking the opposite seat.Vivian’s expression tightened.“I keep forgetting you don’t like being called that anymore.”“There’s something I want to discuss.”Evelyn placed the scanned statement on the table.Vivian glanced at it.The colour drained from her face.“Where did you get this?”“That’s what I came to ask you.”Vivian pushed th
