Shannon covered her mouth as tears filled her eyes.

Sean pressed a hand against his forehead. He had imagined this conversation a hundred times since leaving the estate. In every version, he had been calmer. He had explained what his father admitted, told her about the assets, and promised that none of Edward’s crimes would ever touch her again. Now that he could hear her, none of those words came easily.

“Did your father really say those things?” she asked.

“Yes.”

“And the payments?”

“He admit

    The phone on the table began ringing.Mr. Voss glanced at the screen. “It’s Ethan.”Kennedy answered and placed the call on speaker.“Mr. Miles,” Ethan said. “I’m contacting you on Mr. Vale’s instructions. His independent audit team will provide your investigators with copies of all authenticated Meridian records currently in our possession.”Kennedy’s face hardened. “Why?”“Because they belong to you.”“And what does Sean expect in return?”“Nothing.”“No one gives away evidence capable of destroying his own company for nothing.”“Mr. Vale was offered the restoration of his authority today,” Ethan said. “All he had to do was publicly deny your allegations, support Vale Group’s retaliation and end his relationship with Miss Miles.”Shannon stopped breathing.“He refused,” Ethan continued. “The board upheld his suspension.”Kennedy said nothing.“He also instructed us to continue investigating the payment to Leon Mercer,” Ethan added. “Whatever you believe about him, he did not choose

    Edward’s gaze dropped to the documents Ethan had placed on the table.Mrs. Vale moved towards the papers. “What did you make her sign?”“No one made her do anything,” Sean said.Edward picked up the proxy and read the first page. His mouth hardened when he reached Aria’s signature. “She gave you control of her voting rights?”“She gave me permission to protect what belongs to her.”“By helping Kennedy destroy this company?”“By stopping you from destroying what remains of it.”Edward threw the document onto the table. “Her shares do not restore your authority.”“I know.”“Then this changes nothing.”“It changes enough.” Sean looked around the table. “Aria’s vote means you do not have the majority required to remove me permanently. My suspension may prevent me from accessing company accounts, but I remain chief executive until the board completes its investigation.”Several directors shifted uneasily.Edward noticed. “You think delaying the vote will save you?” he asked.“No. I think i

    Aria's hand trembled over the final signature, but she completed it before sliding the documents towards her brother.“There.” Her voice cracked. “Now they can’t pretend I chose them.”Sean looked at her signature.Once, Aria’s greatest concern had been convincing Kennedy to accept her relationship with Shannon, and teasing Sean whenever Shannon made him lose his composure. Now she was leaving the country after signing away the voting power attached to her inheritance because their parents had turned love into something that felt like war.He pulled her into his arms.Aria clung to him. “Bring my brother back.”Sean frowned against her hair. “I’m right here.”“No.” She pulled back, tears gathering in her eyes. “Bring back the man Shannon made you become. Don’t let them turn you into Dad.”His throat closed.Aria kissed his cheek before he could answer. Then she picked up her bag and walked towards the private exit with the security team.She did not look back until she reached the doo

    Shannon covered her mouth as tears filled her eyes.Sean pressed a hand against his forehead. He had imagined this conversation a hundred times since leaving the estate. In every version, he had been calmer. He had explained what his father admitted, told her about the assets, and promised that none of Edward’s crimes would ever touch her again. Now that he could hear her, none of those words came easily.“Did your father really say those things?” she asked.“Yes.”“And the payments?”“He admitted authorizing Meridian.”Shannon’s hand returned to her stomach. “Then the evidence is true.”“Some of it is.”She went still. “What does that mean?”“It means my father destroyed Kennedy’s company. It means he bribed people and stole from a man who trusted him.” Sean looked through the glass windows at the aircraft waiting beyond them. “But I still don’t understand the recent payment. None of it fits the way it should.”“Dad says...”“I know what your father says. He froze every agreement bet

    Silence fell over the study.Shannon looked at her father, but Kennedy turned towards the windows. His shoulders remained rigid, his anger too old and too deep to surrender in a single night.Amelia drew Shannon into her arms again. “You are not going to lose everyone,” she murmured. “Not after we only just found one another.”Shannon clung to her, but her gaze dropped to the phone still held in her hand.Across the city, Sean stood in the private departure lounge of a small airfield while Ethan spoke to the pilot.Aria sat on one of the leather couches, staring at the passport in her lap. She had not cried again, but the redness around her eyes remained.Sean preferred the tears. Her silence reminded him too much of Shannon.“The aircraft can be ready within the hour,” Ethan said as he approached. “The security team will travel with her and remain at the residence until you tell them otherwise.”“I don’t need a security team,” Aria muttered.Sean looked at her. “You’re taking them.”

    Ethan recognised her voice. “Ms. Miles.”“What did Edward say?”Another pause followed.“I only know what Sean reported during our call.”“Tell me.”Ethan hesitated.“Please,” Shannon whispered.“He asked Edward whether he authorized payments through Meridian Industrial Holdings.”“And?”“Edward said yes.”Shannon’s hand moved instinctively over her stomach.Kennedy’s face hardened. “What else?”“Mrs. Vale said everything they did was for Sean and Aria. Edward said they did what they had to do because Kennedy would have destroyed them if they hadn’t moved first.”The room became painfully still.Without Edward’s confusion, without the corporate crimes he believed they were discussing, the words sounded like an admission to everything.Kennedy’s voice dropped. “Did Sean ask about the hospital?”“Yes.”“And the recent payment?”“Yes.”“What did Edward say?”“Sean told him Shannon was carrying his child and that their grandchild nearly died because of money traced to Meridian.” Ethan’s p

    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

    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
