My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 75: The Goodbye
Aria woke the next morning with sunlight warming her face and Damien's arm still draped securely across her waist. For a few quiet seconds, she remained perfectly still, listening to his steady breathing. The events of the previous days felt strangely distant beneath the peaceful morning light. Victor. The danger. The losses. The fear. Everything seemed suspended for one fragile moment.Her gaze drifted toward the ring on her finger. She lifted her hand, watching the diamond catch the sunlight. A soft smile slowly reached her eyes. Fiancée. The word still felt unreal.She turned carefully in Damien's arms and pressed a gentle kiss against his jaw. "Good morning." Damien stirred, his eyes fluttering open. The moment he saw her, a slow, warm smile appeared on his face. "Good morning, fiancée."Aria laughed softly. "I don't think I'll ever get used to that word." "Then I'll keep using it until you do." He pulled her closer, and she rested her head against his chest. For several minutes,
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 74: The Question
Aria found Damien on the balcony one quiet evening, staring out at the city lights as the sky slowly faded from deep purple into black. She wrapped her arms around herself against the cool breeze and studied him for a moment before stepping closer, asking what he was thinking about.Damien turned toward her, his expression softening immediately as he answered, "You. Us. Everything we've been through." Aria smiled faintly and moved beside him, resting her arms on the railing as they watched Washington glitter beneath the darkening sky, and she noticed that he still looked tense despite the peace surrounding them."You're waiting for something to go wrong," Aria said, and he admitted that he kept expecting the next disaster, a feeling she understood more than she wanted to admit. She reached for his hand and intertwined their fingers, telling him that maybe they needed to learn how to become the new us, people who weren't always waiting for the next disaster."We survived Victor, the tr
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 73: The Aftermath
The weeks after the trial passed in a strange, quiet rhythm. Aria woke each morning to sunlight streaming through the penthouse windows, the city sprawling below like a living, breathing thing. The fear that had once clenched her chest every morning had slowly faded, replaced by something softer, something that finally felt like peace. She had spent so many years afraid, running, and hiding, and now, for the first time, she could simply exist.Damien was always there when she opened her eyes, his arm resting around her waist, his breathing slow and steady. Sometimes she watched him sleep, tracing the lines of his face and memorizing the peaceful expression she rarely saw during their darkest days. She had almost lost him so many times that his presence still felt precious, and every morning she silently reminded herself that he was alive, safe, and beside her. She no longer wanted to take a single ordinary moment for granted.They spent their days rebuilding, not the company, but them
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 72: The Verdict
The courtroom doors swung open, and silence fell like a wave as Victor stood at the defendant's table, his hands cuffed behind his back and his expression carved from stone. The judge's final words still seemed to hang in the air: "Twenty-five years in federal prison, with no possibility of parole." Aria stared at him from the gallery, her fingers gripping the wooden railing, her heart pounding against her ribs as she tried to process what she was feeling. She had waited so long for this moment and had imagined Victor behind bars countless times, yet now that the verdict had come, she felt strangely empty not happy, not triumphant, just tired.Beside her, Damien reached for her hand, his fingers slipping gently between hers as he whispered, "It's over." Aria swallowed and looked at him. "Is it?" Damien held her gaze for a moment before answering, "The trial is." She turned her eyes back toward Victor, who was being watched by two bailiffs, his gaze still fixed on her with the same col
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 71: The Trial
The courtroom fell silent as Aria walked toward the witness stand. Her footsteps echoed across the polished wooden floor, each one carrying the weight of years of pain, confusion, and fear. Every eye in the room followed her, the jury, the attorneys, the journalists crowded into the gallery, and the spectators who had come to witness the trial of Victor Harrington.At the defendant's table, Victor sat perfectly still, his expression calm and almost amused. He looked as though he were watching a performance he had already seen before. Aria reached the witness stand and slowly took her seat, clasping her trembling hands together beneath the table.The prosecutor approached with a reassuring expression. "Are you ready, Miss Collins?" Aria took a slow breath and nodded. "Yes."For years, she had been afraid of the memories buried inside her mind. She had feared what they might reveal and questioned whether the fragments returning to her were truth or merely pieces of a damaged past. But n
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 70: The Raid
The abandoned estate had been silent for less than five minutes when the first gunshot shattered the darkness, and Aria barely had time to react before Damien grabbed her around the waist and pulled her behind the stone wall. Bullets tore through the wooden doorway behind them, splintering the frame as Vasquez drew his weapon and dropped behind a stone column, firing toward the shadows. "We're under attack! At least six men!" Another burst of gunfire ripped across the courtyard as Aria pressed herself against Damien, struggling to control her breathing."How did they find us?" she whispered, and Damien's expression hardened. "They were waiting for us. Victor knew exactly where we were going." He glanced toward the entrance of the hidden tunnel, his eyes darkening. "Carter's estate was never the real target. We were." A grenade rolled across the stone floor, and Damien shoved Aria behind the wall as the explosion tore through the entrance, the blast shaking the estate while dust filled

"Marcus sent another message," Aria said.Damien glanced at her phone from the driver's seat. The screen glowed in the dim light of the car. "What does it say?""He found the property records. The cabin where Victor kept my mother." She read aloud: "Old Harrington estate. East of the city. Abandone
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 5: Rules Without Explanation
The silence after his confession lasted forever.Aria stood with her back against the door, her hand still frozen where the handle should have been. Damien hadn't moved from the center of the room. His confession hung between them like smoke—visible, suffocating, impossible to grasp.Three years.S

Victor Harrington found her in the lobby.Not by accident. Aria knew that immediately. He was standing by the security desk, dressed in a charcoal suit that cost more than her degree, holding two cups of coffee like an old friend waiting for a delayed train.He smiled when he saw her.Not Damien's
My One-Night Mistake Is My Billionaire Boss Chapter 3: The First Crack in Control
Aria lasted four hours before she realized something was wrong.Not with the job. The job was straightforward—emails, scheduling, a filing system so organized it felt almost obsessive. Lydia had trained her efficiently, answered every question, and disappeared exactly when Aria stopped needing her.
