My Fiancée Promoted Her Ex, So I Bought Her Company Chapter 10
Five years later, Walker Capital held its annual charity gala.The ballroom was dazzling and packed with guests.I walked into the room with Claire on my arm.She wore a pearl-white evening gown, and around her neck was the anniversary necklace I'd given her.Our daughter had just turned three. She was nearby with the nanny, looking around curiously.Camera flashes kept going off.Reporters crowded around us."Mr. Walker, you and your wife are always held up as the perfect example of balancing career and family. What's your secret?"I looked at Claire.She smiled and squeezed my hand.I took the microphone."Trust."And no matter how busy work gets, always remember to keep the people who really matter close to your heart."Applause broke out.I leaned down and kissed my wife's forehead.I'd met her when I was at my lowest.She hadn't gotten close to me for my status, and she hadn't looked down on me when I was still a team lead.She just saw me for me.I finally understood that love wo

Three months later, I heard what had happened to Noah.He'd been arrested for assault, and the court had sentenced him to prison.His family wasn't nearly as well off as he'd bragged, and all his so-called connections vanished the moment he got in trouble.As for Erin, she lost the baby and was left with serious health problems.Noah had made off with her savings. Her job was gone, and so was her health.She tried reaching out to her old coworkers, hoping someone would help her find work.All she got were brush-offs.The people who used to flatter her now avoided her like the plague.She even tried calling me.I didn't pick up.Later, Claire brought her up while giving me a work update."Mr. Walker, I heard Erin's been having a really hard time lately."I turned a page of the file in my hand."That's her life."Claire glanced at me and didn't say anything else.I had no interest in where Erin ended up, and I didn't care whether she was doing well.She once told me that without her, I w

HR moved fast.Two days later, Erin and Noah were officially gone.They left through the front doors carrying cardboard boxes at rush hour.Not one of the coworkers who used to hover around them came to say goodbye.Erin stood by the curb and looked at Noah."What do we do now?"Noah tossed his box into his car, irritated."What do you mean? We go our separate ways."Erin froze."What did you say?""Did I stutter?" Noah sneered. "The Walker family has their eye on me now. I don't even have a job anymore, and you want me to solve your problems?""But you said you could help me...""And you believed whatever I said?" Noah cut her off impatiently. "Erin, at your age, are you still that naive?"Her face went white."What about all the money I spent on you? All those bills I covered?"Noah laughed like he'd just heard a joke."You spent that money because you wanted to. Now you want it back? Dream on."He opened his car door.Erin grabbed his arm."Noah, you can't do this to me!"Noah shook

After the meeting, Erin hurried after me as I left the conference room."Ethan!"She hurried to block my way, her eyes red."Please, give me one more chance."I'd never seen her beg like this before."I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have given your promotion to Noah, and I never should have treated you that way. We've been together all these years. Are you really going to be this heartless?"I looked at her calmly."Didn't you say Noah could give you resources, connections, and a future?"Go find him."Erin's lips trembled."He lied to me! He said he had connections and could get me into the parent company's inner circle one day...""So you only think you chose wrong because you found out he doesn't have any connections?""No!"She shook her head frantically."Ethan, I did love you! I just wanted to succeed so badly. I thought if I could climb just one more step, we'd have a better life..."I gave a soft laugh."Of course you wanted to succeed."That's why you took credit for my work,

Erin's face drained of color, little by little.Ethan Walker?The son of the founder of Walker Capital?The man she'd mocked for three years, the man she'd been so sure had no connections, was now the company's new boss?Noah panicked too.He'd always claimed he was related to someone high up at the parent company and used that lie to throw his weight around.But now the real heir was sitting right in front of him.I slowly sat down and looked around the table.My gaze finally landed on the document in front of Erin.It was titled "Marketing Department Staff Optimization Recommendations."I smiled."Ms. Carter."Erin flinched."I hear you've prepared a staffing plan for today?""I...""Since you care so much about the company's efficiency, why don't we all take a look at your plan first?"Erin pressed her hand down on the document without thinking."Ethan, this is just a first draft. I haven't officially submitted it yet...""That's fine."I turned to my assistant, Ryan."Please put th

The next morning, Erin got to the office early.The new owners were meeting the executive team for the first time that day.That meeting would decide her position and her future.She couldn't afford a single mistake.She'd just parked in the underground garage when a black Mercedes van pulled up beside a reserved space ahead of her.Erin honked twice, annoyed.The van door opened.A middle-aged man in a dark suit stepped out.Erin recognized him right away.My father, Richard Walker.She paused for a second, then smiled mockingly.After everything that had happened the day before, had Ethan really sent his father to beg for him?She figured I must have truly run out of options.She straightened her clothes and walked up to my father."Mr. Walker."Her tone was polite, but her expression was cool."Are you here to see Ethan? I assume you've heard by now that we've broken up."My father glanced at her."Is that so?""I know you love your son," Erin went on. "But Ethan's abilities are lim
