Shannon’s hands moved over him gently, desperately, tracing familiar lines across his shoulders and chest while Rowan held her tighter against him.

Because nothing had felt right since he woke up.

Nothing.

Until this.

And he wanted more of it.

More of her.

Enough that within minutes he was already guiding her backward toward the sofa, his hands firm at her waist as kisses blurred between them.

His suit jacket hit the floor first.

Then Shannon’s fingers moved to his shirt, slowly helping him out

  • The Billionaire’s New Love: You Remembered Too Late   Chapter 278

    Evelyn did not remember leaving the hotel.She remembered Darius returning her phone, she remembered walking towards the elevator without allowing herself to look back. She remembered the doors closing and seeing her reflection in the mirrored walls.Her face had looked unfamiliar.By the time she reached home, her hands were still shaking.She locked the door behind her, then checked it twice. The curtains were drawn. Every window was closed. Nothing appeared disturbed, yet the silence no longer felt safe.The man had known where Shannon would be. He had known the exact stage of her pregnancy. He knew about the police investigation, Sean’s suspension and the collapse of Vale Group. He had taken control of companies worth millions while Edward believed Kennedy had stolen them.If a man like that wanted to enter Evelyn’s home, a locked door would not stop him.She walked into her bedroom and dropped her bag onto the floor. Her shoes followed, then she climbed onto the bed without chang

    The direct answer unsettled her. Silas made no attempt to pretend otherwise. There was no promise of partnership, no false assurance that they wanted the same thing. In his eyes, she was not an ally, she was a tool.Evelyn reached for her bag before remembering Darius still had her phone. “I’m leaving.”“No, you are not.”She looked back at him. “You can keep your attorney and whatever protection you think you gave me. I’ll handle my own problems.”“You have seen my face.”Evelyn’s hand stopped above the back of the chair.“You know I control what remains of Vale Group,” Silas continued. “You know I intend to take the Miles empire, and you know what I require from you.”“You’re threatening me because I won’t hurt a baby?”“I am explaining why you cannot walk out of this room.”For the first time since she entered, Evelyn noticed how quiet the suite was.The doors were closed. Her phone was gone. No hotel staff had entered since Darius brought her upstairs, and she had not seen anothe

    Evelyn arrived at the hotel believing she had been invited to meet the man who had rescued her. The private suite occupied the entire upper floor. Darius searched her bag and took her phone before allowing her inside. Evelyn disliked that immediately. “I was told this was a business meeting.”“It is,” Darius said.“Then I would prefer to keep my phone.”“No.”Before she could argue, the doors opened.Silas sat near the windows with a glass of untouched liquor beside him. He watched Evelyn enter without standing.She had expected an attorney, perhaps an investor who admired her family or someone with influence over the police. She had not expected a stranger who looked at her as if he already knew every mistake she had ever made.“You asked to see me?” she said.“Sit.”Evelyn remained standing for another second before taking the chair opposite him.Silas dismissed Darius with a glance.“You want to know why you are here,” he said.“I want to know who you are.”“That is not important.

    The request reached Sean shortly after Edward’s personal accounts were frozen.Vale Group’s remaining directors wanted him back. Not because they had forgiven him for siding with Kennedy or because they suddenly believed returning the stolen assets was right. They wanted Sean because the banks trusted him more than Edward, the employees were already looking to him for answers and his personal fortune was one of the few sources of money the courts had not restricted.The meeting took place in Sean’s private office.Four directors sat across from him while Ethan stood near the windows. Their desperation filled the room before any of them spoke.“We can petition to restore your authority immediately,” one of the directors said. “Your father’s actions have given the board sufficient grounds to remove him as chairman.”Sean leaned back. “And then?”“We issue a statement separating the company from Edward’s private conduct.”“His private conduct built the company.”“Not all of it.”“Enough

    Vale Group did not collapse all at once. It came apart piece by piece.The first partner withdrew before the banks opened, terminating a manufacturing agreement that had lasted twelve years. Two more followed before noon. By the end of the day, companies that had once fought for the privilege of placing the Vale name beside theirs were releasing statements about integrity, transparency and their unwillingness to remain associated with historical misconduct.Inside Vale Group headquarters, employees gathered in corridors and whispered over unanswered emails.The frozen operating account had delayed payments to several subsidiaries. Rumours spread that salaries would not be released at the end of the month. Human Resources attempted to reassure everyone, but the assurance disappeared when one of the company’s longest serving directors walked through the lobby carrying a box of personal belongings.Reporters surrounded him outside.“Did Edward Vale authorize the Meridian payments?”“Was

    Sean leaned back.The video had not come from Kennedy. It had not come from a journalist who stumbled across forgotten evidence. Someone with access to Meridian’s oldest network had preserved a private recording for twenty seven years, then waited until the precise moment it could cause the most damage.“Whoever sent this knew what my father did before the public did,” Sean said.“And they knew how our current security system handles unknown files.”“They also knew Kennedy would believe I tried to destroy it.”Ethan watched him carefully. “Because they wanted him to push you away.”Sean’s jaw tightened.Why?If the objective was merely to expose Edward, there had been no reason to involve Sean’s audit archive. The video alone would have ruined the Vale family.Someone had added the lie about Sean deliberately. Someone did not want him near Kennedy or Shannon.“Stop investigating the contents of the video,” Sean said. “We already know that part is genuine. Find the person who delivered

    Rowan sat on the bed, his arm wrapped loosely around Evelyn.Evelyn stood close, too close, and Rowan leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to her cheek like it was the most natural thing in the world.Like he had done it a hundred times.Like it belonged there.“Stop!”The word tore out of Shannon befor

    The first thing Shannon felt was the weight, like her entire body had been dragged beneath something heavy and invisible, pressing her down into a darkness that refused to let her rise.Then came the sound, a slow, steady beep... beep... beep...It echoed from far away at first, distant and unreal,

    The guest room was at the end of the hall.Shannon paused at the doorway, her fingers resting lightly against the frame before she stepped in.It used to be a storage room now it was neat, cleaned and prepared.A bed, fresh sheets and a wardrobe that looked barely used.Shannon exhaled slowly and s

    The hospital discharged them the next day.Shannon didn’t know whether that was fate or cruelty.She stood just outside the building, her fingers gripping the thin discharge papers in her hand as the sunlight hit her face. Too bright. Like the world hadn’t just ended for her.A few steps ahead Rowa
