Chapter 134

The sterile smell of antiseptic filled Richard Caldwell's hospital room as his family gathered around his bed. Three days had passed since the stroke, and the left side of his face still drooped, his left arm lay motionless against the white sheets. But his eyes were alert, burning with urgency as he looked at each family member.

Samuel sat closest to the bed, holding his father's good hand. Lora occupied the chair by the window, her face puffy from crying. Sarah stood near the door, uncomfortable in the small space. Emily paced at the foot of the bed, her movements sharp and agitated.

"Father, the doctors say you're getting stronger," Samuel said softly. "Your speech is much clearer today."

Richard's voice was slow but determined. "I need... to see him."

Emily stopped pacing. "See who, Richard? You need rest, not visitors."

"Alexander Kane." Richard's words were careful, deliberate. "I need to see... James's son."

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 137

    Chapter 137The Caldwell Industries boardroom had never felt so different. Alexander Kane sat at the head of the long mahogany table where Emily Caldwell had ruled for twenty years. The afternoon sun streamed through floor-to-ceiling windows, casting golden light across the room where his father had once dreamed of building something lasting.Twelve board members sat around the table, their faces a mixture of curiosity and nervousness. These were the same people who had followed Emily's orders without question, who had profited from her criminal schemes, who had turned their backs when justice called."Ladies and gentlemen," Alexander began, his voice carrying the weight of authority that came with owning one hundred percent of the company. "Today marks the beginning of a new era for Caldwell Industries."Margaret Stevens, the longest-serving board member, shifted uncomfortably in her chair. "Mr. Kane, we're still processing yesterday's events. Richard's death, the ownership transfer.

    Chapter 136The morning news hit Boston like an earthquake. Every television screen, newspaper headline, and internet article screamed the same devastating story: Richard Caldwell was dead, and Alexander Kane now controlled Caldwell Industries.Emily sat in the mansion's morning room, surrounded by newspapers scattered across the Persian rug. Her hands shook as she read the headlines over and over, unable to accept what her eyes were seeing."CALDWELL DYNASTY ENDS: Richard Caldwell Dies, Transfers Company Control to Alexander Kane""SHOCKING DEATHBED CONFESSION: Caldwell Patriarch Admits Brother Was Framed""KANE INDUSTRIES CEO INHERITS RIVAL COMPANY: 'Justice Finally Served'"Samuel stood by the tall windows, watching news vans line the street outside their home. His face was hollow, aged ten years overnight by grief and shock."It's everywhere," Samuel said quietly. "Every news channel, every business journal. The whole world knows what Father did."Emily crushed a newspaper in her

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 135

    Chapter 135The hospital room door opened quietly, and Alexander Kane stepped inside, followed by Mona. The afternoon sunlight streaming through the windows caught Alexander's face, highlighting the strong jawline and deep-set eyes that were unmistakably Caldwell features.Richard's breath caught in his throat as he looked at the man he had met countless times at business events, charity galas, and corporate meetings. All those years, he had shaken hands with Alexander Kane, never knowing he was looking at his own nephew."My God," Richard whispered. "All this time... all those meetings... you were James's son."Lora shot up from her chair like a missile, her face twisted with rage. "How dare you come here! How dare you show your face in this room!"Alexander remained calm, his hands clasped behind his back. "I came because my uncle asked to see me.""You're nothing to this family!" Lora's voice cracked with fury. "You're a fraud, a liar trying to steal what doesn't belong to you!"Mo

    Chapter 133The Caldwell mansion shook with the sound of Richard's fist hitting the television remote. The fifty-inch screen went black, but the damage was already done. Alexander Kane's face had filled every news channel in Boston, his voice declaring himself James Caldwell Jr., rightful heir to everything Richard thought belonged to his family."Impossible," Richard whispered, his hands trembling as he stared at the dark screen. "James's son died. The boy died in the car accident with Catherine."Samuel sat frozen in his leather chair, his face pale as marble. "Father, the DNA evidence. The birth certificates. Those documents looked real."The mansion's front door burst open. Emily stumbled into the living room, her hair wild, her clothes wrinkled from sleeping in yesterday's whiskey-stained dress. Dark circles surrounded her bloodshot eyes."Did you see it?" Emily's voice was hoarse, broken. "Did you see what that monster just did to us?"Richard stood up slowly, his legs unsteady.

    Chapter 132The Kane Industries conference room buzzed with reporters, cameras, and television crews. Alexander stood at the podium, his hands steady on the mahogany surface despite the earthquake he was about to unleash. Mona sat in the front row, her eyes filled with pride and pain for the man she loved.Flash bulbs popped like firecrackers as Alexander adjusted the microphone. The financial press had gathered expecting news about the Jones Corporation scandal. They had no idea they were about to witness the most shocking revelation in Boston business history."Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming." Alexander's voice carried across the packed room. "Today, I will reveal information that will change everything you know about the Caldwell family and Kane Industries."The room fell silent.
