Olivia pov;

My arms went numb. The twenty heavy presentation booklets slipped from my grip, hitting the carpeted conference room floor with a series of dull, thudding sounds.

"Moved to eight-thirty?" I asked, my voice flat, almost devoid of sound.

"Yes, ma'am," the janitor said, dragging his mop across the tile near the doorway. "They moved it down to Conference Room C on the lower level, too. Left about few minutes ago."

I didn't answer. I dropped to my knees, my hands moving automatically to

    Olivia pov;"It's terrible news," I said, looking up at both of them. "Because now Damian is suing Ethan's entire company. He is claiming I stole trade secrets. If I stay with Ethan, I ruin his reputation. And honestly... I am terrified, Luca.""Terrified of what?" Luca asked, pouring a fresh cup of coffee and placing it in front of me."Terrified that I am doing the exact same thing I did with Damian," I said, my voice trembling. "I spent years letting a man dictate my life. Now I'm letting my feelings for Ethan consume everything. What if I'm just replacing one man with another? What if I'm losing my independence all over again?"Adrian leaned back in his chair, folding his arms across his chest. "Did Ethan ask you to give up your job?""No," I said."Did Ethan tell you to stop seeing your friends?" Adrian asked gently."No," I repeated."Did Ethan try to take your money or tell you what to wear?" Adrian continued."Of course not," I said.Luca walked around the island and sat down

  • The Billionaire’s Plus size redemption    Chapter 72; Between Love and Ambition

    POV: Olivia"Ethan, look at this," I said, my voice high and tight as I sat up in bed.Ethan stirred beside me, blinking his gray eyes against the morning light. "What is it, Olivia?"I thrust my phone toward him, my hand shaking violently . It's Damian. He just filed a multi-million-dollar lawsuit against Kingsley Global Holdings. He claims we stole trade secrets from Carter Innovations."Ethan sat up instantly, the blanket falling away. He took the phone from my hand and read the red notification banner on the screen. His jaw set into a hard, rigid square."He's using the alleged logistics leak from last week," Ethan said, his voice quiet and dangerous. "He wants to force a public trial.""No, Ethan," I said, swinging my legs over the edge of the mattress and standing up. "He doesn't just want a trial. He wants me. He knows if he connects my name to you, the press will destroy this company. They will say I brought corporate secrets from my ex-husband straight into your office."Etha

    Olivia pov;He climbed onto the bed and settled between my thighs. Strong hands stroked up the insides of my legs, peeling the stockings down one by one. Then his fingers hooked into the sides of my panties and drew them off. I was bare beneath him, soft belly, full thighs, the dark thatch of hair already slick.Ethan looked his fill. “Look at you,” he said, voice thick with hunger. “So wet for me already. Open wider.”I did. He settled lower and dragged his tongue in one long, slow stroke from my entrance to my clit. My hips jerked. A soft cry escaped me. He did it again, slower, savoring. The wet sounds of his mouth filled the quiet room along with the rain.“Taste so fucking good,” he growled against me. “Could stay here all night.”Two fingers slid inside me while his tongue worked my clit in steady circles. I clenched around him, thighs trembling against his shoulders. Heat coiled tight and fast. My hands fisted the sheets.“Ethan—please—”He lifted his head just enough to meet m

    Olivia pov;I looked at his open palm. For months, I had hesitated, afraid of what people would say, afraid of becoming weak again. But as I took his hand and let him pull me up, I felt stronger than I ever had before.Ethan picked up his folder, unlocked his private elevator, and led me straight down to the basement parking garage. He opened the door of his dark car for me, closed it gently, and drove us out into the Riverton rain.We didn't go to his office or my apartment. He drove straight to his home in Brookstone Heights. The quiet house was warm, lit by soft yellow lamps.Ethan set his keys on the foyer table, took my wet blazer, and hung it up. He led me into the quiet living room, where a fire crackled softly in the stone fireplace."Are you warm enough?" he asked, looking at me with deep care."I am warm now," I said.All the fear from the boardroom, all the exhaustion from the long months of fighting rumors, melted away under his calm gaze. Ethan stepped closer, taking bot

  • The Billionaire’s Plus size redemption    Chapter 69; No More Hiding

    POV: Olivia"Did you see that?" I whispered, my voice shaking as I grabbed my briefcase off the mahogany table."See what, Olivia?" Mr. Vance asked, turning around at the exit door with a stack of papers under his arm. "The board meeting is finished for today. You should go home and rest.""Nothing," I said quickly, stepping back. "I just dropped my pen."I picked up my black ballpoint pen from the floor, my eyes fixing on Chloe. She slipped her tablet computer into her leather bag, pulled her white coat over her shoulders, and walked past me without making eye contact. The quiet click of her heels echoed down the hallway.I walked out of the boardroom, but I didn't head for the main elevators. My hands were trembling so hard I could barely hold my bag. The tight pressure in my chest grew heavier with every step. The adrenaline that had kept me standing tall through Chloe's sharp questions was completely gone, leaving behind a deep, crushing exhaustion.I turned down the quiet side co

    Olivia pov;Mr. Vance flipped through the pages, his thick eyebrows rising. "The financial records here show a twelve-thousand-dollar reduction in executive department overtime costs over the last quarter.""Yes," I said. "I restructured the administrative shift rotation to eliminate unnecessary weekend hours. Every project assigned to me has been completed accurately and on time."Chloe let out a soft, mocking laugh. "That is very impressive arithmetic, Olivia. But you haven't addressed the elephant in the room. What is the true nature of your relationship with Mr. Kingsley? Employees have seen you leaving his office late at night. How can the board trust that your promotions and access to secure files are based on merit rather than... personal favors?"The room fell dead silent. I felt the heat rise in my neck, but I refused to bow my head or shrink away. For years, Damian had made me feel ashamed of who I was, forcing me to apologize for existing. I was not going to do that ever ag
