Melowie

The glare of camera lights washed over the grand briefing room at the Veyra Group headquarters, turning the air hot and stifling.

I stood behind the brushed-steel podium, flanked by Nathan on my left and three senior legal partners on my right. In front of us sat three rows of international press, their notebooks open, their digital recorders lined up along the mahogany edge like tiny black daggers.

The only sound was the incessant, rapid click of shutter button.

"Good afternoon," I be

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife Is His Boss   Going after my son

    NoelMy father’s voice shattered the air like an iron bar through fine crystal."Am I interrupting anything important?" George asked softly, his smooth, patrician tones cutting straight through the wet, heavy air of the terrace.In a fraction of a second, the universe lurched back into its brutal orbit.Melowie’s throat locked. The confession that had been hovering on her lips raw, weeping truth that had almost bridged the chasm between us vanished like smoke.I turned my head toward my father, a violent, murderous fury surging through my veins. "Get out, Dad," I choked out, my voice raw, shredded, and dangerous. "Leave us alone. Right now."George took a slow, deliberate sip of his wine, the ice cubes clinking softly against the heavy crystal glass, his sharp blue eyes sweeping over my trembling frame before settling on Melowie's wet, pale face."Now, Noel," George chided gently, his tone laced with that sickening, patronizing calm he used when handling unruly children or panicked sh

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife Is His Boss   The heck is going on?

    MelowieThe white text was gone, buried back inside the dark silk of my clutch, but the words hung suspended in the cold night air like a corpse.The blood had completely drained from his face, leaving his skin a sickly, hollow grey. His eyes raw, bloodshot, and wide with a terrifying, wild realization stared at my face, then down at my right hand, and then back into my eyes."Melowie..." he rasped. It wasn't a question. It was a dying man’s last breath. "Melowie, what... what was that?"My brain screamed at me to move. Three years of survival instincts surged up through my veins, demanding that I close the breach. I had rehearsed this exact nightmare a hundred times in the quiet dark of my study. If I were ever cornered, I had my forged cover stories ready, built layer by layer with Nathan's legal precision.It’s Beatrice’s boy. I’m a emergency guardian on his preschool paperwork.It’s my late cousin’s foundation account.It’s a philanthropic sponsorship for an elite private academy

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife Is His Boss   Leave me, let me be

    Noel The cold night air on the terrace hit my face like an open palm, but it did nothing to cool the fever burning behind my eyes. Behind us, double-paned glass doors muffled the swell of the string quartet and the meaningless chatter of Geneva's elite. Out here, suspended three stories above the street in the dark, damp air, there was only the smell of rain, wet stone, and the sharp, suffocating scent of lilies clinging to her skin. I stood between Melowie and the stone steps leading back down to the grand ballroom, blocking her exit. She stood frozen against the carved stone balustrade, her midnight-blue silk gown sweeping against the damp floor. In the dim amber light of the terrace lanterns, her face was a masterpiece of alabaster ice... smooth, unyielding, and utterly expressionless. Except for her hands. She held her small silk clutch pressed flat against her ribs, her knuckles white, her thumbs digging into the embroidered fabric with a desperate, frantic pressure. "Get

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife Is His Boss   I Won't let that happen

    MelowieWe were finally at the Grand Ballroom of the Hôtel des Bergues .Every power broker, high-court judge, and banking titan was jammed into the space, their laughter tinkling like cheap glass against the backdrop of a live string quartet. They were all waiting for the main event. They weren't here for the children’s hospital charity; they were here to watch two corporate empires tear each other to shreds on a polished dance floor.My hand tightened around the stem of my untouched champagne glass until the glass groaned under the pressure.I stood near the grand archway in a sweeping, midnight-blue silk gown, my dark hair styled into a high, sculpted crown. Beside me, Nathan looked immaculate in a tailored tuxedo, his posture locked, his sharp eyes scanning the room like a sniper guarding a high-value asset."Sophie just called," Nathan murmured under his breath, leaning down slightly so his voice wouldn't carry past the violin music. "The transport route from the estate was clea

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife Is His Boss   Who deserves to win ?

    GideonSeated inside my unbadged black car, the engine idling with a low, barely audible hum. The soft glow of two encrypted mobile phones illuminated the dashboard. On the passenger seat lay a thick, leather-bound dossier detailing forty years of cross-border financial transactions between the Veyra Group and Varess International, the dark, ugly skeleton my clients paid me to keep buried.I picked up the first phone. I dialed Noel’s private line.It rang twice before he answered. He didn't say hello. He didn't ask who was calling. His breath came through the receiver in a ragged, shallow, hollow rhythm."You're watching the broadcast, aren't you, Noel?" I said softly, my voice smooth, calm, and utterly devoid of judgment."What do you know, Gideon?" Noel rasped. His voice sounded shredded, burnt out from two days of silent agony. "Who was that reporter? Who paid him to ask that question?"I leaned back against the leather headrest, swirling the unlit cigarette between my fingers. "D

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife Is His Boss   With My Life

    MelowieAfter I left the conference, I drove straight to the estate.I stood by the grand fireplace, my arms wrapped tightly around my waist, my eyes fixed on the cold, unlit hearth. My heart was still hammering a frantic, erratic rhythm against my ribs.Can you confirm or deny... a child you have kept completely hidden...My skin felt hot and prickled with ice. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the camera lenses zooming in on my face, searching for the crack in my skin, waiting to drag my two-year-old boy into their circus.Behind me, the door opened softly, then clicked shut.Sophie walked into the room, her heels making no sound on the thick Persian rug. She didn't carry a tablet. She didn't carry a stack of legal briefs. She didn't look like the razor-sharp chief of staff who had helped me orchestrate a multi-million-franc hostile takeover.She looked like a friend who was watching me drown."Nathan is downstairs with security," Sophie said softly, her voice low and tight. "He’s
