Evelyn's First POV

"Who are you talking to?"

Alexander’s deep, cold voice sliced through the heavy air of the study like a drawn blade.

I gasped softly, my pulse spiking as I spun around in the velvet armchair. Alexander stood rigid in the doorway, his broad shoulders framing the dark wood frame, his suit jacket gone and his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. His dark eyes flicked from my flushed face down to the phone clutched tight in my hand.

The room instantly felt icy. The sharp, unspoken

  • THE REBORN WIFE: I'm Taking the Billionaire Now   17. The Poisoned Bait

    Third Person POVBackstage behind the heavy crimson velvet curtains, the air buzzed with frantic whispers and the sharp, anxious clatter of jewelry cases being unlocked.Vanessa stood beside the main display table, wearing a pristine pair of white cotton gloves as she oversaw the staging of the charity auction’s centerpiece items. On the outside, she wore the composed, diligent mask of an event coordinator. Inside, her heart hammered violently against her ribs like a trapped animal."Make sure the platinum sapphire bracelet goes out right after the painting," Vanessa instructed a passing stagehand, keeping her voice brisk and authoritative.The moment the stagehand turned away, Vanessa’s eyes darted toward the shadowy corridor leading to the service exit. A young, nervous-looking waitress in a black uniform stood waiting near the wall, twisting her apron between her fingers.Vanessa glanced around to ensure no security cameras were pointed directly at the blind spot behind the curtain

  • THE REBORN WIFE: I'm Taking the Billionaire Now   16. The Silent Watcher

    Evelyn's First POVThe heavy mahogany doors of the grand ballroom swung open, revealing a glittering ocean of crystal, gold, and silk. As Alexander and I stepped across the threshold, the ambient murmur of the room shifted. Dozens of high-society eyes turned toward us, appraising, whispering, and calculating.Beside me, Alexander moved with effortless, commanding authority. His hand rested firmly at the small of my back, a warm and possessive anchor that kept me steady against the sudden rush of flashing cameras and curious stares."Mr. Sterling! Good evening," a distinguished man in a bespoke gray suit greeted us immediately, stepping forward with a glass of champagne."Arthur. Glad you could make it," Alexander replied, his voice smooth and resonant. He turned his dark gaze toward me, his posture softening just a fraction. "Allow me to introduce my wife, Evelyn."Arthur’s eyes swept over my midnight-blue silk gown and diamond drop earrings, a polite, admiring smile spreading across

  • THE REBORN WIFE: I'm Taking the Billionaire Now   15. The Bitter Servant

    Vanessa's First POVThe heavy crystal chandeliers of the grand ballroom cascaded a blinding shower of golden light over the polished marble floor. High-society elites, corporate titans, and influential media figures mingled in clusters, sipping vintage champagne and exchanging polite, calculated smiles.And I was standing near the service entrance wearing a cheap, itchy polyester uniform, balancing a silver tray of canapés while my feet throbbed in flat black shoes."Hey! Tray four needs more champagne flutes in the VIP lounge right now!" a catering manager barked, shoving past me without even glancing at my face."On it," I muttered through gritted teeth, adjusting my grip on the silver tray.Getting onto the event staff hadn't been easy. Using a forged temporary ID card and a fabricated reference from an out-of-town catering agency, I had slipped through the service entrance hours before the guests arrived. My original plan had been desperate and reckless—just sneak in, grab whatev

  • THE REBORN WIFE: I'm Taking the Billionaire Now   14. Beneath the Chandeliers

    Evelyn's First POVThe morning breeze carried the sweet scent of blooming white roses across the manicured stone pathways of the Sterling estate. Beside me, Jenna practically bounced on her heels, her eyes darting from the towering marble fountains to the sprawling green lawns that stretched out toward the horizon."Evelyn, seriously, are we in a royal palace or a billionaire's house?" Jenna gasped, spinning around to take in the grand stone facade of the main manor. "I feel underdressed just breathing the air in this garden!"A soft laugh escaped my lips as we strolled along the hedge-lined walkway. "You look great, Jenna. Breathe all you want.""Forget the garden—let's talk about the main attraction!" Jenna grabbed my arm, leaning in with wide, sparkling eyes. Earlier that morning, just as Jenna arrived, Alexander had passed through the foyer on his way to the office. He had paused for barely ten seconds to greet her with a polite, deep nod before stepping out to his waiting car. Ye

  • THE REBORN WIFE: I'm Taking the Billionaire Now   13. What If...

    Evelyn's First POVThe glowing screen of my laptop cast a sharp blue hue across the walls of the mahogany study. Outside, the night sky hung heavy and dark over the sprawling lawns of the Sterling estate, but inside, the air was warm, rich with the familiar, comforting scent of cedar and amber."I’ve updated the equity allocation for the logistics-alternative startup," I said, pointing at the spreadsheet. "If we split the funding across three tranches—""I already gave strict instructions to the household staff," Alexander interrupted quietly. His deep, resonant voice cut smoothly across the room, causing me to pause.I looked up, blinking in surprise. Alexander sat beside me at the oversized desk, his shirtsleeves rolled up to his forearms, his dark, intense eyes fixed entirely on me."Instructions?" I echoed."Yes," Alexander said, his tone absolute and unyielding. "Starting today, no one from your family is permitted to enter this estate without your explicit permission. Not your p

  • THE REBORN WIFE: I'm Taking the Billionaire Now   12. The Royal Gambit

    Evelyn's First POV "Look closely at the five-year projections for the commercial logistics sector," I said, tapping the high-definition display on the desk. The soft glow of the monitor illuminated the quiet mahogany study. Alexander sat right beside me, his long arm resting casually along the back of my leather armchair, his heavy, amber-scented presence wrapping around me like a warm velvet blanket. "The freight sector looks profitable on the surface," I continued, sliding a series of financial trendlines across the screen. "But it's bloated. Overhead fuel costs are spiking, and supply chain bottlenecks will crush mid-level firms within six months. Anyone sinking capital into logistics right now is throwing money into an open grave." I knew this with absolute certainty—because in my past life, Daniel had sunk his first major loan into a logistics firm and nearly gone bankrupt before I secretly restructured his entire portfolio. "And where would you place your capital instea
