It’s Your Loss, Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine Chapter 78
Bella’s POVMy fingers trembled slightly as I unfolded the thick white paper. Printed boldly across the center of the page were two sharp, chilling lines written in stark black ink: Watch your back from now on! You will never be happy with Maximo as long as I am in this retreat.A cold, heavy rock settled deep in the pit of my stomach. My breath caught in my throat as the menacing words burned into my mind. The message was unmistakable, designed specifically to instill fear and shatter my resolve.Whoever wrote this hated the very sight of me with Maximo. My mind instantly raced through every person present at the estate, but my suspicions settled firmly on one single person: Victoria. She was Maximo’s ex-wife, bitter, unhinged, and consumed by an ugly, burning envy over our relationship. She had already confronted Maximo, screaming insults and demanding he take her back. I could suspect nobody else with this level of personal venom.The letter provided one crucial clue—whoever wrot
It’s Your Loss, Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine Chapter 77
Bella’s POVI sat frozen on the edge of the plush mattress, my fingers clutching the damp cotton of my bedsheets as my chest rose and fell in rapid, shallow hitches. The lingering horror of the nightmare still clung to my skin like a suffocating shroud. I could still feel the phantom sensation of those cold, ruthless hands pressing hard into my back, the terrifying weightlessness of falling into that vast, bottomless abyss.My mind spun in tight, anxious circles, dissecting every detail of the nightmare and attempting to forge a connection to phantom who had pounded on my door at two in the morning. Was it a calculated attempt at intimidation? Was it Josh, driven mad by his public humiliation at the keynote session? Was it Victoria, boiling over with bitter envy? Or was it Genevieve, testing my reactions and pushing past boundaries under the dark cover of the night?I sat there for so long, lost in the haunting labyrinth of my own thoughts, that I nearly lost all track of time.It w
It’s Your Loss, Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine Chapter 76
Bella’s POVFor the remainder of the afternoon and evening, Maximo did not bother me.Whether he was finally respecting the strict boundaries I had set on the veranda or simply drowning in his own dark frustration, he kept his distance. He did not cross my path in the main exhibition hall, he did not send any of his representatives to check on my supply line pitches, and he refrained from making another scene.I made a point to ignore my phone completely. I left it tucked away deep inside my leather portfolio, refusing to glance at the screen even once during the remaining breakout sessions.I did not want to see his name flashing across the display. I did not want to read his desperate explanations, his possessive demands, or his offers of corporate backing. I needed total isolation from the storm he created, choosing instead to channel every ounce of my energy into securing independent distributors for the Ross Textile Mill.By the time the final afternoon panel wrapped up and the
It’s Your Loss, Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine Chapter 75
Bella’s POV The morning panel on modernizing legacy manufacturing dragged on for another hour, but my focus remained absolute. I kept my head held high, my spine straight, and my pen moving across the digital notepad in my lap. Not once did I allow my eyes to stray toward the main panel desk where Maximo sat.I could feel the suffocating heat of his gaze burning into the side of my face, sharp and relentless, but I treated him as if he were completely invisible.When the moderator finally announced a fifteen-minute coffee break before the afternoon breakout sessions, the auditorium erupted into a buzz of shuffling papers, scraping chairs, and quiet networking chatter."That was a surprisingly informative session," Genevieve remarked, gathering her leather folder as she stood up beside me. "Maximo’s points on automating high-yield textile production were remarkably sharp. Don't you think?""The data was sound," I replied coolly, keeping my tone strictly professional as I zipped my po

Bella’s POV"You don't need to justify it to me, Garvin," I said gently, stepping closer to him, my heart aching for everything he was carrying. "Go back home and take care of your mother. The mill, the summit, the panel, I will handle everything. Your family comes first. Please, just focus on her."Garvin let out a long, weary breath, a faint, appreciative nod passing between us. "Thank you, Bella. But you have to promise me something before I leave.""Anything," I replied instantly."Promise me you're going to take care of yourself," Garvin said, his dark eyes locking onto mine with deep, brotherly concern. "You're all alone here now with these corporate wolves, and after... after what happened last night with Maximo, I hate leaving you in the middle of all this tension. Promise me you won't let anyone push you around.""I promise," I said softly, giving him a reassuring smile. "I can handle myself, Garvin. I promise you."Driven by pure instinct and a desire to comfort my friend be
It’s Your Loss, Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine Chapter 73
Bella’s POV The color drained slightly from his strong jaw. He stood frozen, his dark eyes widening as the harsh, undeniable reality of his mistake slammed straight into his chest. His heavy hands lowered to his sides, his shoulders dropping a fraction as he swallowed hard, completely speechless."He was standing out there, breaking down in complete agony because his mother might die tonight," I choked out, a hot tear finally spilling over my cheek. "And because I am his friend, because I care about him as a brother, I held him while he wept. That was it! That is the monstrous, betrayal-filled secret you just punched him in the face for!"Maximo stared at me, his throat working as he tried to find his voice. The violent, wild beast that had stormed out of the hall was suddenly replaced by a man standing in the stark light of his own foolishness."Bella..." Maximo began softly, his voice dropping into a low, gravelly rasp as he took a slow step toward me. "I... I didn't know.""Becaus
