The Billionaire I Met On My Worst Night Chapter 176: A Sudden Change
By late afternoon, Kevin had a clearer answer.He knocked once before entering Edward's office.Edward looked up from his computer.“Come in.”Kevin closed the door behind him.“I confirmed the company connected to the vehicle.”Edward set aside the document in his hand.“Which company?”“Halston Development Group.”Edward's expression remained unchanged, but his attention sharpened.“Are they bidding against us?”“Yes. They're one of the companies competing for the Northbridge project.”Edward leaned back.“How strong is their position?”“Normally, not strong enough to concern us.”“Normally?”Kevin placed his tablet on the desk.“Their latest proposal changed.”Edward looked at the screen.“The financing structure?”“Yes.”Edward studied the figures.“That wasn't in their previous proposal.”“No.”“When did they change it?”“Two days ago.”Edward's eyes lifted.“Two days?”“That's when the revised proposal was submitted.”The timing was difficult to ignore.Edward stood and walked a

The next morning, Kevin arrived at Edward's office with the first results.“I found something,” he said.Edward looked up from his desk.“What?”“There is no confirmed departure matching the information we were given.”Edward leaned back.“Meaning?”“Meaning I can't establish that Sienna actually left the country. The available information doesn't show the departure we would have expected.”Edward was silent.Kevin continued.“There are gaps in the information around the period after she was sent to the airport. I can't say yet whether she remained here the entire time or moved through another route. But there is no clear record confirming that she left.”Edward's expression hardened.“So we don't know where she went.”“Not yet.”“But we know she was here last night.”“Yes.”Edward stood and walked toward the windows.“Keep looking.”Kevin nodded.“I'll see what else I can verify.”Kevin left.Edward remained by the window for several seconds before reaching for his phone.Charlotte a

Edward's phone rang just as he was getting to sleep.He glanced at the screen and saw Desmond's name.It was late enough that the call immediately caught his attention.Edward answered. “Desmond?”“I need to tell you something,” Desmond said.Edward pulled the phone to his ear.“What happened?”“I saw Sienna tonight.”For a second, Edward said nothing.“You're sure?”“Nancy recognized her first. We were having dinner at the same restaurant. Sienna was there, and she went into one of the private dining rooms. She wasn't alone.”Edward's expression changed.“Did she see you?”“No. Neither of us approached her. She left through the rear hallway before we could get a clear look at the person she was meeting.”Edward glanced toward the bedroom door.“Where is she now?”“I don't know. We didn't follow her.”“That was the right decision.”Desmond exhaled. “Edward, I thought you said she'd been sent away.”“She was supposed to be.”“That's what I thought.”Edward leaned against the edge of th

The Stewart Mansion was quiet by midnight.Most of the lights had been turned off, and the staff had settled into their usual nighttime routines. Two nannies remained in the nursery, keeping watch over the twins while Charlotte and Edward tried to get some sleep in the master bedroom.They had barely been in bed for an hour when a cry broke through the silence.Charlotte opened her eyes.For a moment, she lay still, listening.Then another cry followed.One of the twins.She pushed herself upright."Edward."He woke almost immediately."What is it?""They're awake."Another cry came from down the hallway.Edward was already sitting up."I heard them."Charlotte slipped out of bed, pulling a robe around herself. Edward followed her.They reached the nursery to find one nanny gently rocking one baby while the other stood beside the second crib, trying to settle the crying infant."She's been awake for a few minutes," one of the nannies explained softly. "We were trying to calm her befor

Sienna did not contact the competitor again that night.She let the silence work in her favor.If they wanted what she had, impatience would eventually reveal itself.And it did.The following morning, while Julian was at work, she switched on the second phone.One message waited for her.We need more than the financing figure.A second followed.If you have access to internal material, we can discuss terms.Sienna read both messages without replying.They had moved quickly.That was useful.It also made the situation more dangerous.She typed carefully.I will contact you when I have something you can verify without tracing it back to me.The response came almost immediately.Then don't waste our time.Sienna deleted the conversation.She wasn't going to be pressured into giving them something they could use to identify her.Instead, she spent the morning researching Northbridge through public information.She reviewed company announcements, property records, financial reports, and o

The next evening, the decision was made for her.Julian came home later than usual.The black leather folder was under his arm again.He placed it on the desk near the study before walking into the kitchen."You're back.""Finally."He loosened his tie."I've been dealing with revisions all day.""Northbridge?"He looked at her."You remember.""You've mentioned it.""Too many times."She smiled."You don't have to talk about work.""I know."He poured himself some water."But we're close to the board review. Everyone suddenly wants the final version to be perfect."Sienna said nothing.Julian glanced toward the study."I need another twenty minutes."He picked up his phone."I'll finish something, then I'm done."He walked into the study.Sienna stayed in the living room.She could hear his footsteps inside.A few minutes later, his phone rang.He answered from the study."No, send the revised version."A pause."Yes. Before the review."Another pause."I'll look at it tonight."The
