Gabriel POV

I woke up slowly, my entire body aching.

My eyes were heavy, like someone had placed weights on them. My shoulder throbbed with a pain that made my teeth clench. For a moment, I couldn't remember where I was or how I'd gotten here.

I groaned and slowly rose into a sitting position. The room swam around me—ceiling, walls, window—all of it tilted and spun until my vision cleared.

That's when I noticed something on my leg.

I looked down and saw a woman's head resting against my thigh.

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 215: The call

    Evelyn POVBiscuit was licking the tears off my chin when the phone rang.I was still on the hallway floor, back against the front door, legs pulled up, my bag in my lap, and the puppy in my arms.I didn't know how long I'd been sitting there. I’d lost motivation to go to the office today but long enough for the morning light to shift from pale gold to something brighter and less forgiving.Long enough for my legs to go numb against the cold tile. Long enough to replay Vincent's face, the defeat in it, the quiet way he'd asked me to leave, and to feel the guilt settle into my body.The phone rang again and I almost didn't answer because I thought it would be Grace calling to know why I wasn’t at the office yet. I'd hit my quota for devastating conversations before noon, and the idea of hearing another human voice ask me something that required an emotional response made me want to crawl under the sofa and stay there until spring.But it might be Vincent. It might be him calling to say

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 214: What you found on my phone…

    Adrian POVI sat down. Buttoned my jacket. Adjusted my tie. Moved the Calloway report from the centre of my desk to the top drawer, face down, beneath a stack of quarterly summaries. Then I reconsidered, pulled it back out, and placed it in the drawer beneath my chair where it couldn't be seen from any angle in the room.I composed myself and waited.I put the phone face down on the desk.Finally, the elevator chimed and the doors slid open ushering Isabella into my office. She wore white. A fitted sheath dress, sleeveless, cut to just above the knee. Her dark hair was pulled back in a chignon so precise it looked architectural, and her makeup was the kind of minimal that took forty-five minutes to achieve. She carried a small clutch in one hand. No phone. No bag. Nothing extraneous.She'd come light. Which meant she'd come ready.Her eyes swept the room the way they always did, quick, cataloguing, measuring the distance between furniture, the placement of objects, the things that we

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 213: Send her up…

    Adrian POVThe thought lasted approximately six seconds before I felt sick.Because I could see it clearly and with strategic clarity that had made me excellent at business and terrible at being human. I could see the path: Evelyn devastated, leaning on me, the grief creating a proximity that my own efforts hadn't managed. I could see her turning to me in the absence of Gabriel, not because she loved me but because I was standing in the space he'd left behind, and proximity is a powerful thing when you're drowning.I could see all of it, and the fact that I could see it meant I couldn't do it.It wasn’t because I was noble. I wasn't. I was a man who'd spent decades treating people like variables in an equation, and the reflex to optimize outcomes was so deeply wired that I'd calculated the strategic benefit of a man's death before my second cup of coffee. That wasn't nobility. That was pathology.But the thing growing inside me, the unnamed feeling that kept me awake and made me resi

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 212: Unmanageable feelings…

    Adrian POVThe report landed on my desk at eleven forty-seven, buried between a quarterly earnings summary and a briefing on the Bangria corridor project, and it took me approximately four seconds to understand that the rest of my day had just been rewritten.Calloway had compiled it. It was two pages and had zero embellishment. My head of intelligence had spent fifteen years at K16 before deciding the private sector paid better and asked fewer questions, and he wrote the way he thought. It was clean, verified, stripped of anything that wasn't essential.07:38 local time. Multiple coordinated strikes on the Ross compound, Highfields district, Bangria. Estimated three to four firing positions. Sniper-grade weaponry. Attack duration: approximately fourteen minutes. Ross security team engaged. Compound sustained significant structural damage.07:52 local time. Two-vehicle convoy associated with Rowan Brice approached from the south. Convoy intercepted by unknown third-party force before

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 211: Adrian was falling in love.

    Third-person POV"What is this?" Hart asked."This is the next phase." Margaret closed the folder. "Bennett Holdings is about to enter a period of rapid expansion. Green Valley Phases Three through Ten. New investors. New contractors. New partnerships. Evelyn is scaling faster than her infrastructure can support, and she doesn't realise it yet because the revenue from Phases One and Two is masking the underlying strain."She tapped the folder."In approximately three months, Bennett Holdings will face a liquidity crisis. Not because the company is failing, but because the pace of expansion will outstrip its cash reserves. Contractor payments will come due before investor capital is fully deployed. The Green Valley schedule will slip. Phase Three will overrun its budget. And Evelyn, who has just removed six experienced employees from her organisation and is operating with a depleted senior team, will find herself managing a crisis with fewer resources than she needs.""You're going to

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 210: A case for prosecution

    Third-person POVMargaret closed her eyes, just for a moment. When she opened them, the pleasant, composed expression she'd walked in with was gone. What remained was colder, sharper, and infinitely more dangerous."That was careless, Gregory.""I was being fired. I wasn't thinking strategically.""No. You weren't." She stood and walked to the window, pulling the curtain aside an inch. Light fell across her face, illuminating the fine lines around her eyes and the set of her jaw. She looked out at the street below for a long moment, then let the curtain fall."Let me tell you something," she said, her back still to him. "Because I think you've lost sight of what we're doing here, and I need you to understand it clearly before we proceed."She turned."I have spent the better part of six years engineering a specific outcome. Not a business outcome, Gregory. A personal one. My son, Adrian, is going to marry Evelyn Bennett. That is the objective. That has always been the objective. Every

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 110: The private conversation II

    Evelyn POVI followed Gabriel to the private room like a sheep to a slaughterhouse.At this point, my brain was jumping with anticipation at the promise of whatever Gabriel had mentioned, and I could barely function. There was no part of me telling me to turn back, too. I wanted to experience it al

    Gabriel POVI stood and watched until Evelyn’s car disappeared from my sight.I was so hard.It had taken me all the restraints I could muster not to unleash my want on Evelyn. I wanted her to come to me, not the other way around, and everyone knows I do not force women. Yet, I was desperate to get

So I drifted
