Chapter 68

Ryan's POV

I recognized Claire the moment she walked into my office.

For a few seconds, I couldn't reconcile the woman standing beside my sister with the girl I remembered. She looked older.

She carried herself differently, with a quiet confidence that hadn't been there before, although the way she held the folder against her chest reminded me of the girl who used to keep her sketchbook close.

My eyes settled on her face, searching for some indication that she was just as surpris

  • Oops! My Ex-Wife Is Now My Boss   Wrong outing?

    Eleanor's POVI arrived at the café ten minutes before our agreed time, chose a table near the window, and ordered a cup of tea I barely touched. Margaret had insisted on meeting somewhere away from the people she used to work with, and although I understood her concerns, I couldn't stop wondering what had frightened her enough to keep quiet about my father's treatment for so long.When she finally walked in, I recognised her from the photograph she had sent me. Her hair was almost entirely grey, and she carried a brown handbag that looked as though she had owned it for years. She glanced around the café before approaching my table, then sat down and placed the bag on her lap.“Thank you for agreeing to meet me,” she said. “I've been going back and forth about whether I should have called you, but after our conversation yesterday, I knew I couldn't keep putting it off.”“You don't have to thank me for meeting you. My father was my family, and if there's something about his final mon

    Chapter 71Eleanor's POV The finance director arrived at my office shortly after ten, carrying a thick folder and a laptop. I had asked Audrey to make the meeting a priority, and judging by the look on his face, he understood that I wasn't interested in a vague explanation.“Good morning, Eleanor. We've managed to trace most of the transactions involving Vantage Capital Holdings, although we're still waiting for confirmation on the ownership structure.”“Please, sit down and tell me what you've found. I want to understand why these shareholders decided to sell and whether there's a connection between them.”He opened his laptop and turned it towards me. A list of names appeared on the screen, alongside the number of shares each person had transferred.“Five shareholders sold portions of their holdings within a relatively short period. None of the transactions was large enough to attract immediate attention on its own, but the combined purchases gave Vantage a significant position in

    Chapter 69Eleanor's POV I watched Ryan from across his office, growing increasingly suspicious of how quickly he had tried to end our conversation about Claire.Claire left already after I had escorted her outside, but I knew I needed to discuss with Ryan. I didn't like her countenance earlier and I knew it was something between the both of them.“You two definitely know each other,” I said. “And judging by the way you both reacted when you saw each other, this wasn't an ordinary meeting. How exactly do you know her?”Ryan leaned back in his chair and gave me a guarded look. “We met a while ago. That's all you need to know.”“That's not an answer. Did you date her?”He stared at me. “Why are you asking me all these questions?”“Because Claire is my friend, and I don't want her getting involved with someone who might hurt her. Did you like her? Were you together, or was it one of those situations where two people get close and one person decides to disappear without an explanation?”

    Chapter 68 Ryan's POV I recognized Claire the moment she walked into my office. For a few seconds, I couldn't reconcile the woman standing beside my sister with the girl I remembered. She looked older.She carried herself differently, with a quiet confidence that hadn't been there before, although the way she held the folder against her chest reminded me of the girl who used to keep her sketchbook close. My eyes settled on her face, searching for some indication that she was just as surprised to see me. She was. The smile she had walked in with faltered, and her fingers tightened around the folder. She looked at me, then at Eleanor, as if she had walked into the wrong office and needed a moment to decide what to do about it. I knew that feeling. I was experiencing it myself. Claire and I hadn't spoken in years. I had made sure of that when I ended things between us, convinced that cutting her off was easier than admitting I was beginning to want something I had never intended

    Chapter 67 Eleanor's POV It had been several days since I received the photograph of Julian and me at the beach, yet I hadn't managed to put it out of my mind. The unknown number hadn't contacted me again. No new messages, no calls, and no further threats. I should have been relieved by the silence, but somehow, it only made me more anxious. I couldn't tell whether the sender had changed their mind or was simply waiting for the right opportunity to strike. Every time my phone vibrated, my heart jumped before I even checked the screen. Sometimes, I would pick it up without receiving any notification, scrolling through my messages to make sure I hadn't missed anything. I had even started keeping it beside me during meetings, which was unlike me. I hated distractions, especially at work, but lately, my attention had become difficult to control. The worst part was that I couldn't tell anyone. I couldn't tell Ryan because I didn't want him asking questions about Julian and me. I coul

    Adrian's POVStacy had been unusually quiet since her visit to my house.I might not have paid much attention to it if she hadn't spent the better part of that morning finding excuses to call me.First, she wanted to know whether I had taken my medication. Then she asked if I needed anything delivered to the house. When I told her I was fine, she went silent before ending the call.It was unlike her to leave a conversation unfinished.I was beginning to suspect that her concern had less to do with my health and more to do with what she had seen when she arrived.Eleanor.I leaned back in my chair and stared at the documents spread across my desk. I had been trying to review a proposal for almost twenty minutes, yet my attention kept drifting to the same conversation.Stacy had been upset to find Eleanor in my house. That much had been obvious. What I couldn't understand was why she had remained so preoccupied with it afterward.Perhaps I should have asked her directly when she visited
