Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn. Chapter 276: Stay
Vincent POVI was putting Nadia to bed when my phone lit up.She had insisted on a story, which had turned into two stories, which had turned into a negotiation about whether a third story counted as "one more" when the first "one more" had technically been the second. She was seven years old, and she argued like a contract lawyer. I had known her for four days, and I was already losing every negotiation."One more," she said, pulling the blanket up to her chin."You said that last time.""This is a different last time."Elijah, sitting cross-legged on the other bed with a book, looked up. "She'll do this until you give in. It's faster to just read it."I read the third story. Nadia was asleep by page four. Elijah waited until I finished the last page, then said quietly, "She has nightmares about the fire. If she wakes up screaming, don't turn the light off. Just sit with her.""Okay," I said. "Thank you for telling me."He nodded and went back to his book. He was reading a biography
Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn. Chapter 275: At the launch...
Evelyn POVThe room didn't gasp. Rooms full of professionals don't gasp. What they did was worse. They went quiet, and at that moment I could see every single person in the room, recalculating, reassessing, deciding whether the woman on stage was what she appeared to be or something else entirely.I felt the floor tilt beneath me. My vision darkened, my legs had gone weak, and the constant feeling that the ground would suddenly open up and swallow me overwhelmed me. I tried to control the thousands of emotions milling through my mind. There was a camera in front of me for the whole world to see; I couldn't afford to break down."I have not seen the report," I said, and my voice came out strong, which was a miracle I would never be able to explain. "I can tell you that Bennett Holdings has undergone a comprehensive internal audit over the past year. Every financial irregularity we identified was reported to the authorities and addressed. If there are new allegations, we will review
Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn. Chapter 274: The night everything burned.
Evelyn POVThe dress was emerald green.I don't know why that detail mattered to me, standing in front of the mirror in my office bathroom at half past five with the launch ninety minutes away and my hands shaking so badly I couldn't fasten the clasp at the back of my neck. But it mattered. It mattered because my father had once told me that the colour you wore to the thing that defined you would be the colour people remembered, and I wanted them to remember green. Growth. New ground. Something alive.Grace appeared behind me in the mirror and fastened the clasp without a word. She was wearing navy, her hair swept up, her reading glasses replaced with contacts that made her look five years younger and slightly startled. She met my eyes in the glass."Ready?" she asked."No.""Good. Neither am I." She smoothed the shoulders of my dress. "Your father would be proud of you, Evelyn."I closed my eyes for a second. Just one second. Then I opened them and turned around."Let's go build some
Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn. Chapter 273: Graymark Capital
Evelyn POV"I can have a segment ready for the evening broadcast. I'll need Grace on camera. Not defending herself, or apologising and telling the truth. My brother made a mistake. I paid his restitution out of my own pocket. I didn't disclose it because it was a family matter, not a professional one. And then the pivot: someone accessed sealed records illegally and used them to attack me and this company two days before we open homes for six hundred families and provide job opportunities to people in Crescent Harbour. The question isn't what my brother did four years ago. The question is why someone is spending this much money to stop Green Valley."I felt something loosen in my chest. Not relief, exactly. More like the feeling you get when you've been fighting alone, and someone walks in and picks up a weapon."Grace will do it," I said. "I'll talk to her.""One more thing," Belle said. She pulled up her phone and showed me a screenshot. "After the article dropped, I ran Graymark th

Evelyn POV"I already tried. She's not returning calls." Grace adjusted her glasses. "But the Tribune has a policy. Investigative stories that rely on anonymous sourcing are required to include a disclosure statement identifying the type of source, even if they don't name them. The disclosure is at the bottom of the article."She scrolled down. I leaned over to read.This report was compiled from public records, court filings, and confidential materials provided to the Tribune by a representative of Graymark Capital, an institutional advisory firm, who requested anonymity. The Tribune independently verified the information before publication.I read the name twice. Graymark Capital."Do you know who that is?" Grace asked."No," I said. And I didn't. Not yet. The name meant nothing to me, which, in a city like Crescent Harbour where I knew most of the institutional players by reputation if not by name, was itself a piece of information. Whoever Graymark Capital was, they operated below
Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn. Chapter 271: Dirty family linen
Evelyn POVTwo days to the launch and nothing was going as it should. Our stock was still at 27%. Twenty-seven per cent of Bennett Holdings' stock value gone in under an hour, wiped out by a single article about a woman whose only crime was having a brother she didn't talk about.I pulled into the office parking garage at 6:15. The building was mostly dark, but I could see the lights on the fourteenth floor, and I knew who was sitting up there. I had asked Grace to meet me in the office today. Since the article dropped, she hadn't been to the office, and since her house was practically milling with reporters, thankfully, they didn't know where I was living now. Grace had been sleeping in hotels. I'd called her twice yesterday. She hadn't answered either time.This morning, by chance, she'd picked up, and I asked for a meeting.I took the elevator up alone. The corridor was empty, the only sound the hum of the overhead lights and the faint, muffled rhythm of someone typing behind a

Vincent POVReconnecting with the person I'd just spoken to on the phone has got to be the best news I've heard in a week. He was someone whom I knew nothing about, except that he was a pro at finding people and keeping his word. Not to mention, he always seems to turn up whenever I am in a fix.I
