Rise Of The Betrayed Omega Chapter 281. Meet the new CEO.
**Stella's POV**(Back at Ace Industries...)The contracts are spread across my desk in four separate stacks.Abigail made the stacks. She colour-coded them with sticky notes — green for straightforward approvals, yellow for review, orange for renegotiation, red for immediate termination. She explained the system to me with the enthusiasm of someone who has been waiting their entire life to be useful in this particular way.I did not tell her that I had already developed my own system in my head before she finished explaining hers.I pick up the next contract from the yellow stack and read."Okay so this one—" Abigail leans across the desk, finger hovering just above the page without touching it, which I appreciate. "—is a supply agreement with the Reston Group. They've been with Ace Industries for eleven years but the renewal terms are quietly worse than the original. Like, significantly worse and written in language designed for you not to notice." She pauses. "Your father's legal t
Rise Of The Betrayed Omega Chapter 280. Get me a meeting.
**Cole's POV** "Don't I?" I turn around slowly. Sabrina stands in the centre of the living room, hand still pressed to her stomach, eyes searching my face for the version of me she knows how to manipulate. But that version died approximately the moment I found out she was planning to kill my pups. "Let me tell you something." I keep my voice low and level. "Everything I have lost in the last few months? Every wrong turn, every burned bridge, every decision I will spend the rest of my life trying to undo?" I tilt my head at her. "It has your fingerprints on it." Her eyes flash. "Excuse me—" "The Ace Industries contract." I hold up one finger. "Eighteen months of negotiations. Three sets of lawyers. Two collapsed deals. A partnership that would have secured this pack's finances for the next generation." I let that land. "My ex-wife just walked into that building as its new CEO. The woman I divorced." I look at her steadily. "Because of you." "Because of me?" The wounded perform
Rise Of The Betrayed Omega Chapter 279. I don't care.
**Cole's POV**(Meanwhile in Black River Pack...)My TV remote is still in my hand while Victor Ace's press conference plays for the hundredth time after rewinding the recorded clip after he said Stella's name and the cameras found her face and something inside my chest cracked clean down the middle like wood that has been holding weight for too long.Stella is Victor Ace's daughter!My thumb finds the volume button without meaning to.Victor's voice fills the room."Effective immediately, Stella will assume the role of Chief Executive Officer of Ace Industries."I can't believe Stella is the boss of the same partnership I have been chasing through three layers of lawyers and two failed negotiations because that contract alone would change the financial landscape of Black River for a generation.And Cooper's face comes before I can stop it. He told me Stella's real identity but I laughed at him and dismissed him for not doing his job.Goddess, What have I done? My mind reels to how ba

**Stella's POV** (Meanwhile in Stella's office...) As soon as the door closes behind my father and Shawn, I count to three with my eyes closed and then open them to glare at Ezekiel. He is now standing near the window, one hand in his pocket, wearing the expression of a man who has just rolled dice and is waiting to see where they land. The morning light catches the clean line of his jaw and he looks — infuriatingly — like he has just done something reasonable. How dare he ask me out again in front of my Dad?! Every single thing I have been holding together since this morning shifts dangerously close to the surface.... He can't help me find my daughter but wants me to date him!? I scoff inwardly, "That was a strategy, wasn't it?" His brows lift slightly. "Excuse me?" "Asking me out." I keep my voice even, each word placed with the care of someone who knows exactly how much force they are carrying. "In front of my father." I tilt my head, just slightly. "You weren't bei
Rise Of The Betrayed Omega Chapter 277. I won't pretend.
**Shawn’s POV** "Then let's go." Victor doesn't waste a second before striding out of Stella's office. I fall in step behind him, noting how the corridor outside is deserted — eerily so. Fuck, what do I tell him? I think, as he heads toward the smaller meeting room at the end of the hall. I have ten seconds to choose the truth or something that sounds like it. 'Well, if you're asking me, tell him about the shipments you've been stealing and diverting to Hank and Dmitri,' my wolf mutters as Victor holds the door open. 'There is no better time than now.' 'Yeah, right. Easy for you to say.' I sigh heavily and step inside. The door shuts with a click that echoes louder than it should — the sound of a lock sealing me in. Victor doesn't sit. He moves to the window — smaller than Stella's, overlooking the side of the building instead of the city — and stands with his back to me, hands clasped behind him. It's the posture of a man buying himself a few seconds before turning aroun
Rise Of The Betrayed Omega Chapter 276. Your blessings.
**Shawn's POV** Abigail is still talking. I register the words — something about her father and victor finally getting what they wanted, something light and self-aware that makes Victor's eyes crinkle at the corners — but the words are arriving from a slight distance because the hand on my forearm has rearranged my attention completely. It is a nothing touch. I know it is a nothing touch. Abigail doesn't even glance at it — her eyes are on her uncle, her expression still carrying the tail end of laughter, entirely unbothered by the fact that her hand is sitting on my arm with the casual ease of someone who has already decided we are comfortable with each other. We have agreed to one dinner so why the act? I take a quiet breath through my nose and keep my face where it is. The problem is not Abigail. Abigail is warm and direct and entirely without malice. The problem is that I am standing in this office with the specific, indelible memory of Stella's hands in my jacket lapels and
Rise Of The Betrayed Omega Chapter 117. That's non-negotiable.
**Stella's POV** "Well," Elder Morrison says, and I force myself to focus on her words instead of the screaming in my head. "That certainly clarifies matters. Mr. Black's testimony confirms your employment and the legitimacy of your financial arrangements." "This is still ridiculous—" Cole start

**Stella's POV** "No, thank you," I manage to say, my voice barely steady. "I'm not here for tea." I turn my attention back to Maya, forcing my face into something that resembles a smile even though my heart is cracking down the middle. "I had a little accident on the way here, sweetheart," I

**Stella's POV** "The first council ruling included visitation rights for Maya," I say, looking Cole straight in the eyes without fear. "I'll be here tomorrow at ten a.m. If that doesn't work for you, you can take it up with Elder Morrison." I don't wait for his response because what I have sai

**Shawn's POV** "Is everything alright?" I ask carefully, my mind racing through every possible reason he called. "That's what I'm trying to find out," Victor says, and I can hear the frustration in his voice. "I can't get through to Stella. Her phone's been off for hours. I've been calling sinc
