The Billionaire’s New Love: You Remembered Too Late Chapter 258
Amelia descended the front steps as quickly as her injured wrist allowed.Sean had already started the engine by the time she reached the car. He watched her through the windshield but made no move to lower the window or open the door.Aria did not appear to notice her approaching.She remained folded into herself in the passenger seat, one hand pressed over her mouth.Amelia stopped beside the car and tapped lightly against the glass.Sean hesitated before unlocking the doors.The moment Amelia opened the passenger door, Aria wiped at her face and turned away.“I’m sorry,” Amelia said.Aria shook her head. “You didn’t do anything.”“I should have said something before you left.”“What was there to say?”Amelia looked towards the estate. The front doors had closed again. Shannon had not followed her. “I don’t believe you or Sean had anything to do with what happened.”Aria’s chin trembled. “Then why did everyone let us leave?”“Because they’re frightened, and frightened people make cr

Shannon stared at him.The request was painfully small compared with everything he had given her.One sentence, that was all he needed. But Shannon looked towards the records and then at her mother’s injured wrist.Fear held her silent again.Sean swallowed. This time, when he nodded, there was no anger left in his face, only defeat. “All right.”He turned towards the door. Aria stood there. She must have returned after hearing the raised voices. Tears streaked her face, but her expression was no longer broken, it was empty.Her gaze moved to Kennedy. “When you said no Vale could stay near Shannon, you meant me too.”“Aria,” Shannon whispered.Kennedy’s expression shifted. “This isn’t personal.”A short, disbelieving laugh escaped Aria. “It feels personal.”“You know what Edward may have done.”“He’s still my father.”“That’s exactly the problem.”The words were out before Kennedy could stop them.Aria stared at him.Amelia turned sharply. “Kennedy.”But the damage had already been d

The words struck him.Aria looked down.Shannon’s voice trembled. “I don’t know Edward well enough to defend him. I don’t know enough about what happened twenty seven years ago to condemn him. All I know is that everyone is already choosing sides, and my child is standing in the middle.”Sean moved towards her.She stepped back.The small distance stopped him.“I need the truth,” she said. “Not your loyalty to your father. Not Dad’s hatred of him. The truth.”“You’ll have it,” Sean promised.Kennedy gave a cold laugh. “From the son investigating his own family?”Sean turned sharply. “What is that supposed to mean?”“It means I will not trust Shannon’s safety to a Vale.”Aria’s head lifted.Sean went still.Shannon stared at her father. “Dad.”Kennedy looked at her stomach. “Until we know who controls that account, Sean’s family stays away from this estate.”“You can’t decide that,” Sean said.“I just did.”“You don’t decide whether I see Shannon or my child.”“This is my house.”“And

Kennedy was already reaching for the laptop. “Show me everything.”The security chief opened the corporate records.Meridian Industrial Holdings had been established more than thirty years earlier. Edward Vale had served as its controlling director before transferring most of its assets into Vale Group. The company was technically inactive, yet one of its surviving accounts had transferred money through two intermediaries until it reached Northstar Risk Management. And Northstar had paid Leon Mercer.Kennedy looked at Sean. “Your father’s company paid the man who pushed Amelia away while Evelyn attacked my pregnant daughter.”“An old account connected to one of his companies paid a firm that paid Mercer,” Sean corrected. “That is not the same as my father instructing him.”“How many coincidences do you require?”“I require proof.”The security chief continued searching through the documents, then another result appeared. This one was older, much older. He frowned as he opened the scan

The footage advanced.Evelyn arrived at the station with her assistant. Reporters surrounded her before officers led her inside.Several minutes later, the man in the black jacket appeared at the edge of the frame.“There,” Amelia said from the doorway.Everyone turned.She had come downstairs without Shannon, her supported wrist resting against her stomach.Sean paused the video. “That’s him?”“Yes.”They watched the man move towards a parked vehicle. His head remained lowered, and the camera never caught his face clearly.“He arrived before Shannon,” Ethan said through the screen.“Eleven minutes before,” the security chief confirmed.The recording continued.The man stayed near the side of the building. He never approached Evelyn. He never spoke to her assistant. But whenever Evelyn changed position, he adjusted his own.“He was watching her,” Sean said.Kennedy leaned closer to the screen. “Because she hired him.”“Maybe.”Kennedy looked at him. “What does that mean?”Sean did not

Outside the interview room, an officer watched her with open dislike but did nothing as the attorney escorted her through the station.The reporters had mostly moved to the hospital, following the more valuable story. Only a few remained outside.They shouted the moment Evelyn appeared. “Did you know Shannon Miles was pregnant?”“Were you trying to harm the Vale heir?”“Are you interested in Sean Vale?”“Did you falsely accuse his assistant to get close to him?”Evelyn’s steps faltered.The attorney placed a hand behind her back without touching her. “Keep walking.”“I want to answer.”“No.”“They’re making me look insane.”“Anything you say will make it worse.”Evelyn clenched her jaw and entered the waiting car.Someone with money and influence had watched everything happen and decided she was worth protecting. She did not know his name, she did not know what he wanted, she only knew that when everyone else had turned against her, he had sent someone to open the door.Miles away, th

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

Shannon’s knees weakened beneath her. Three months of silence. Three months of absence. Three months where she wasn’t there. Her breathing grew uneven. Three months where someone else was. Her gaze slowly shifted back to Rowan. And this time she understood. Rowan watched her, something sharp
The Billionaire’s New Love: You Remembered Too Late Chapter 2
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
