RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge Chapter 83
Chapter 83The press conference was held in the Caldwell Industries main lobby, a space once renowned for its marble floors and the towering portrait of the company founder that had greeted visitors for decades. Today, the portrait was gone, a pale rectangle on the wall marking where it had hung and the marble floors were scuffed from the parade of SEC investigators who had trekked through over the past weeks.Melissa Porter, the interim CEO appointed by the board, stood behind a podium bearing the company's logo. The gathered press shifted impatiently as she adjusted the microphone, cameras flashing and recording devices held high. Behind her stood several board members, their faces grave."Good morning," Melissa began, her voice steady despite the tension in the room. "Today I'm announcing several difficult but necessary changes to Caldwell Industries' operational structure in light of the ongoing financial challenges we face."The cameras clicked furiously."First, effective immedi

The elevator doors closed on Samuel's desperate face, sealing him away. For a long moment, Mona stood frozen, her hand still resting on the call button. The penthouse fell silent except for the steady drumming of rain against the windows and the faint hum of the descending elevator carrying her ex-husband away.When she finally turned from the elevator, her carefully maintained composure crumbled. The first tear slid down her cheek, then another, until her vision blurred. She pressed her palm against her mouth, trying to hold back the sob building in her chest. The strength that had carried her through the confrontation drained away, leaving her hollow.A door opened from the private study. Alexander stood there, watching her with an unreadable expression. He had been there all along, listening."You heard?" Mona asked, her voice rough with emotion.Alexander nodded, crossing the room slowly. "Every word."Mona wiped at her cheeks, embarrassed by her tears. "I didn't expect this to be

Chapter 81Rain fell in a steady sheet across Boston as Samuel Caldwell stepped out of his car and hurried toward the gleaming glass tower that housed the Kane penthouse. The doorman's eyes widened in recognition, but Samuel kept his head down, avoiding eye contact as he approached the reception desk."I need to see Mona Kane," he said, water dripping from his coat onto the polished marble floor.The receptionist's professional smile faltered. "Do you have an appointment, sir?""No. But tell her Samuel Caldwell is here." He swallowed hard. "Tell her it's important."The receptionist hesitated, then picked up the phone, speaking quietly into the receiver. Samuel glanced around the opulent lobby, noting the stark contrast between this modern temple of wealth and his family's traditional mansion. Here, everything gleamed with new money confidence—a painful reminder of how completely the power balance had shifted.After a brief conversation, the receptionist looked up. "Mrs. Kane says she

Chapter 80Across town, the Caldwell family had gathered in the mansion's grand living room. Emily stood by the fireplace, her posture rigid as she watched the news unfold on the large television. Richard sat in his favorite armchair, his face ashen. Samuel paced near the windows while Sarah perched on the edge of the sofa, clutching Lora's hand for support.The ticker at the bottom of the screen scrolled the breaking news: "SEC ANNOUNCES FORMAL INVESTIGATION INTO CALDWELL INDUSTRIES FINANCIAL FRAUD."The newscaster's voice filled the room: "In a stunning development this morning, the Securities and Exchange Commission has deployed dozens of agents to Caldwell Industries headquarters, seizing computers and financial records. Sources tell us this follows whistleblower testimony alleging systematic accounting fraud spanning more than a decade.""Turn it off," Richard said quietly.No one moved."I said turn it off!" he repeated, his voice cracking with emotion.Samuel grabbed the remote

Chapter 79The morning sun had barely risen over Boston when a fleet of black SUVs pulled up to the Caldwell Industries headquarters. Men and women in dark suits emerged, their faces set with determination, government-issued badges glinting in the early light. Employees arriving for work stopped in their tracks, watching as the agents filed through the revolving doors with military precision.In the lobby, Melissa Porter, the newly appointed interim CEO, stood waiting. Her face betrayed no emotion as the lead agent approached."David Harrington, Securities and Exchange Commission," he announced, extending his credentials. "We have a warrant to search these premises and secure all financial records dating back fifteen years."Melissa nodded once. "We've been expecting you. The board has instructed all employees to cooperate fully."Behind Harrington, twenty agents spread out across the lobby. Some headed toward the elevators, others toward the security desk. The atmosphere grew tense a

Chapter 78Rain pelted the windows of Maya Chen's office at the Boston Investigator, the gray afternoon matching her mood as she sifted through the mountain of documents on her desk. The Caldwell exposé had dominated her life for weeks, and though the initial story had broken with spectacular impact, she knew there was more to uncover.Her phone buzzed. The receptionist's voice came through the speaker. "Maya, there's someone here to see you. No appointment. Says his name is Daniel Winters, former accountant at Caldwell Industries. Says it's urgent."Maya glanced at her watch. She had a conference call in thirty minutes with her editor about the Powell angle of the story. But something in the receptionist's tone caught her attention."How does he seem?" she asked."Nervous. Keeps looking over his shoulder. Brought a briefcase he won't let out of his sight."Classic signs of a whistleblower. Maya had seen it before, that mix of determination and fear that drove people to risk everythin

Chapter 77Emily stood frozen before the television in her private study, the remote control slipping from her fingers and hitting the carpet with a soft thud. On screen, Senator James Powell stood at a podium surrounded by American flags, his wife Ruth positioned carefully at his side, her hand resting on his shoulder in a show of marital solidarity."I categorically deny having any improper relationship with Emily Caldwell," Powell declared, his voice steady and assured. "Mrs. Caldwell was a business associate and nothing more. These fabricated allegations represent a desperate attempt to deflect attention from the serious ethical and legal issues facing Caldwell Industries."Emily's breath caught in her throat. Fifteen years of secret meetings, whispered promises, and private arrangements, all erased with a few carefully prepared sentences."The financial transactions in question," Powell continued, "were legitimate investments made through proper channels. My office has provided a

Chapter 76The Caldwell mansion's grand foyer, once a showcase of wealth and power, now felt like a tomb. The heavy double doors slammed behind Richard Caldwell as he stormed in, his face flushed with a rage Emily had never seen in their thirty-two years of marriage."Is it true?" he demanded, his voice echoing through the marble entrance hall.Emily stood at the base of the staircase, still wearing the tailored suit she'd had on when security had escorted her from the company headquarters hours earlier. The shock of their public removal from leadership positions had barely registered before this new storm broke."Richard, you need to calm...""Answer me!" he bellowed, throwing a newspaper onto the marble floor between them. It landed with a slap, the front page visible even from where she stood: "CALDWELL SCANDAL DEEPENS: EMILY CALDWELL'S SECRET AFFAIR WITH BANKING COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN."The headline hovered above a grainy but unmistakable security camera image from the Boston Club. Em

Chapter 75"Twenty-one percent," Alexander murmured, eyes fixed on the financial news display. "Their stock is in free fall."Mona stood beside him, watching the numbers drop in real time. Morning sunlight flooded their penthouse, contrasting with the darkness of what they witnessed, the systematic destruction of the Caldwell empire."Did you see Samuel's interview?" she asked, sipping her coffee.Alexander smiled coldly. "I did. He couldn't have damaged his company more if he'd tried."On screen, the business anchor dissected Samuel's performance, highlighting his evasive answers, visible distress, and abrupt exit. The hashtag #CaldwellMeltdown scrolled across the bottom alongside the plummeting stock figures."He was never the strong one," Mona said distantly. "Emily would drill him before any appearance. Without her guidance, he falls apart."Alexander moved to his laptop showing a live feed of Caldwell Industries headquarters where reporters gathered in growing numbers. Security b
