“Mr. Davidson!” Jason snapped, quickly pulling me out of my trance. I blinked back to reality to meet the glow of sundown.

It was already evening, I noted listlessly.

Hours had passed, nearing the full day, yet nothing had been solved.

Turning back to the two people in my office, Jason paced frantically.

"Alright. Luckily, we've managed to contain it here at the office. Barely,” he glanced at me before continuing,

“Since Mr Davidson has already talked to the employees, assuring them that all will be taken care of. It's only right that we do so.”

“And how do you suggest we do that?" Evelyn, sitting on the other chair, raised an eyebrow. Despite flagellating me in the meeting before, she had arrived here unannounced, no doubt for her own interests.

“Do we lock ourselves up? Sounds like a plan." She smiled, her voice dripping with skepticism.

Jason's jaw ticked as he turned to her.

“Mrs Rodriguez, this is neither the time nor the place for scorn. We're both directors here and y

  • Losing Ryker: The Billionaire's Second Chance    Chapter 75

    RykerI hadn’t even registered what Robinson had said last before he left yesterday. I was drowning in my thoughts as I brought myself here, to this company.“Press charges?” I muttered under my breath, at this point, I was pacing around. My hands were already sweaty, and I wasn’t even doing anything. I stopped right in front of one of my desks and stared at the giant screen across the room, the one on the wall.SparkForge.There it was, big bold letters, still shining and standing strong. But for how long? I sighed, my chest rising and falling in slow frustration. This company was all I had left of my family, of my mother and father, of my grandfather. It was my pride. My legacy. And now , all of it was dangling on the edge because of me. Because I lost my cool and decided to confront that smug idiot in public?I had not one, but two companies on the line.I swallowed hard, feeling a hard knot that scraped my throat. My jaw clenched as I looked back up at the screen. My fists were

    ZerahThe room was still quiet, the air heavy. I stared at the screen for a second longer, trying to piece everything together. But one thing kept bothering me, itching at the back of my mind like a splinter. Why didn’t anyone speak up? Robinson must have done something, that part was obvious. All of this wasn’t a coincidence, it was planned, calculated.I turned to Alex.“You saw what happened,” I said, looking him straight in the eyes. “Why didn’t you say anything? Why didn’t anyone?”He looked away, rubbed the back of his neck, like he was already tired of this conversation.Well I wasn’t, and I wanted an answer and I'm sure as hell not leaving without one.“I mean, everyone saw what happened. He was with these women, whoring around. Someone must’ve seen it,” I continued. “All those people in the club… and not a single soul said anything?”Alex sighed deeply, like I’d just dragged a memory he’d buried under a pile of guilt.“The next morning, after it all went down,” he started s

    Zerah I followed behind Alex, my eyes scanning the hallway as he led me out back. He didn’t say a word at first, just kept walking. We passed a heavy looking steel door, and he pushed it open with ease. I stepped in right after him, and the scent of liquor and old wood hit me. The place looked like a giant drink vault, shelves stacked high with every type of alcohol I could think of. Everything sat in place. He bent down and pushed a few crates aside. The space behind them was tight, and for a second I wondered if he was leading me into some trap. But then another door came into view. Smaller and very well hidden. Why would they hide it? He gave me a quick glance over his shoulder. “Come on.” I did and as we walked, he started talking, just casually like we were old friends or something. “You know,when he first came in here, Mr. Davidson.” He clarified, “He was a real ass.” "Really?” I asked. “Yeah,” he said with a small scoff, “Like every other rich guy who thinks money ma

  • Losing Ryker: The Billionaire's Second Chance    Chapter 72

    Zerah I woke up with a weird kind of energy in my chest. Not excitement, more like determination. Real, heavy determination.I sat up slowly, still wrapped in my sheets. Today was a weekend. Saturday to be exact. It felt surreal. All of that chaos had happened within a few days.And it was far from the end.Everything that happened yesterday kept playing in my head, the parking lot, the flash drive, Robinson’s men smashing it, Ryker's apology.I pushed away that last thought, looking at my closed laptop where the video file remained. I had gotten the evidence to help Emilia and get rid of Robinson's propped reputation.It wasn't enough.The video was good proof of Robinson's misconduct and blackmail to Elena. But what did that have to do with Ryker? Nothing, not directly. If I really wanted to help clear Ryker’s name, I’d need something that tied to him, to that night. And I had to find it fast.My hands clean ved around the sheets. He had admitted his mistakes to me last night, bu

    ZerahI froze in place, my heart skipping a beat. I could tell he did as well. Shock wracked me as I processed the sight of him.His tall frame filled the space, hand was raised halfway to the door, like he was about to knock.I felt like I'd been punched in the gut, my breath catching in my throat.When did he come back? What was he doing here, at my doorstep? What did he want? A million questions swirled in my mind, but I couldn't form any words.It felt like a dangerous case of Deja Vu. Only last night, this situation happened, him drunk and me, angry. He'd once sworn to never touch my bedroom doorstep after that one drunken night six years ago, yet now he'd come to it not once but twice.Unlike last night however, there was no rancid stench of alcohol. No half lidded, unstable frame. His eyes were clear.He wasn't drunk and didn't seem to have touched a lock of alcohol. Good. The confirmation made my gaze roam even further. His shirt was wrinkled, a far cry from the pristine lo

    ZerahThe drive back to my home, if one could call it that, seemed to span an eternity in the silence. My hands were tightly clenched around the steering wheel.The echoes of the panic I'd felt in the parking lot earlier still rang through me. I couldn't deny that I was slightly shaken, but it wasn't jarring. Not when i'd expected it. Not when I'd already been warned.FLASHBACK: THE COFFEE SHOP I stood up to leave when Elena suddenly grabbed my arm. “Wait,” she said, her voice more urgent. My breath hitched as she pulled me back, leaning in.“Sit down.” She whispered an urgency in her tone that made me alarmed.What was wrong? My gut coiled in anxiety as I obeyed.“There's no way he doesn't know about this meeting. With the people following me, he… he'll probably have predicted why I'm here.” she said, her expression shifting into something unreadable.“If he knows, then he might go after you. He might try to take...” she trailed off, but the insinuation was clear.My skin pric
