My Billionaire Husband Refuses to Let Me Go Chapter Twenty-Five
The drive to the hospital took Noah twenty minutes from the mansion. And he had opted to drive himself, instead of taking his usual driver.He preferred it that way whenever his thoughts became too loud. Driving occupied just enough of his mind to stop it from wandering somewhere he didn't want it to go.Not that it was working particularly well today.His phone buzzed again against the center console. He didn't look at it even as another vibration followed less than thirty seconds later. Then another. He already knew who it was without checking.His assistant. Reporters. Board members. Hell, even old university acquaintances. Even two celebrities he had met only once at some conference had somehow found his number and reached out, no doubt hoping to become part of the country's favorite scandal.The tabloids had transformed his private life into serialized entertainment, and everyone wanted the next episode.He despised every second of it.Noah's grip tightened on the leather of the

Helen stepped quietly out of the boardroom, pulling the heavy door shut behind her with a soft click that the shouting inside swallowed completely.Veronica Hayes never called her directly. Never. Any communication regarding accommodations, events, or VIP demands always went through Guest Relations or Jillian Walker's office. For Veronica to use Helen's private line, a number only a select few possessed, meant something had changed.Or perhaps she was calling to gloat about how quickly Emma was falling apart. Helen pressed the phone to her ear, stepping into the one spot on this floor where the security cameras had a blind spot she had identified.She smoothed her skirt with her free hand, forcing her voice into its usual calm, "Miss Hayes? I am in the middle of a very delicate board session—""Helen," Veronica's voice came through the speaker, ragged, thin, and completely stripped of its usual flare. She sounded small and utterly terrified. "The cameras... Helen, what if there's foo

The main hall of the Aurora Resort was packed, and everyone was watching the entrance. By now, everyone knew that Emma had spent the night at the presidential suite and hadn't left the property. The guests gathered around the grand piano and seated at the marble café tables had their phones discreetly angled toward the elevators, waiting to see if she would sneak out through a service corridor or come downstairs looking like a broken woman.When the double doors from the private elevator swung open, the murmurs died down instantly.Emma walked into the grand lobby wearing a dark suit, her hair pulled back neatly. She held a black leather folder against her arm, her expression completely calm. She didn't look down, and she didn't rush her pace. She walked straight across the polished floor toward the main executive wing, completely ignoring the crowd gathered near the lounge seating and front desk.The whispers picked up right away."Is she serious?" a woman near the central fountain

Eleanor didn't wait for an invitation. She entered the room with unhurried steps, the tip of her mahogany cane clicking sharply against the hardwood floor. Her two security detail guards took up positions outside, pulling the door shut with a solid clink.Her sharp, eyes swept over the suite, taking in every detail, from the half-eaten breakfast, to Leah standing defensively by the sofa, to Emma's mother, and finally, Emma herself.The matriarch halted in the center of the foyer, resting both hands atop her cane."Have you finished crying?" Eleanor asked, her voice dry, and entirely devoid of pity.Emma looked up, startled by the sheer bluntness of her words. Beside her, Emma's mother puffed up, her gold bangles clinking as she stepped forward with an offended gasp. "Now see here, Mrs Walker! She has been through a nightmare—"Eleanor didn't so much as glance at her. "If I wished to hear from you Evelyn," she said evenly, "I would have addressed you."The words weren't loud and they d

The next morningBy 6:13 a.m., the first video had reached a million views.By seven o'clock, it had spread across every major social media platform.By eight, national news outlets were replaying the same twelve-second clip on an endless loop.The footage was grainy, captured on a phone from the lower garden terrace. It showed the moonlit upper balcony, lit from behind by the warm glow of the party. You couldn't see faces clearly, but the silhouettes were unmistakable.One shadow lunged forward, arms thrusting sharply outward.A choked, terrified scream tore through the audio.Then, the second shadow crumpled backward vanishing into the darkness below with a sickening, heavy thud.The caption that started it all on TikTok was simple: #WalkerFamilyScandal#JusticeForVeronica #AuroraResortWithin minutes, the algorithm had done the rest.Accounts with millions of followers stitched the video together with dramatic music and slowed the moment Emma's hands reached forward to a crawl.I

Noah didn't remember moving.One second he was standing on the balcony with his second drink in his hand, trying to convince himself he hadn't come to the Aurora just to catch a glimpse of his soon to be ex-wife. The next, the glass was shattered on the tile floor, and he was flying down the stairs three at a time.His pulse hammered against his ears like a war drum.He had seen it. With his own eyes, he had watched Veronica reach out in tears, reaching for peace and he had watched Emma put her hands on Veronica's shoulders and actually throw her backward."Out of the way!" Noah snarled, shoving past a paralyzed waiter.His eyes were fixed entirely on Emma. Six months. For six agonizing months, he had tortured himself wondering if he had judged her too harshly. He had searched his memories for a single trace of malice in her, defended her against his own inner circle less than an hour ago, and convinced himself she was incapable of cruel calculation.And this was how she proved him wr
