last update วันที่เผยแพร่: 2026-02-13 16:50:52

Lewis knew the emergency board meeting was not coincidence.

The message had arrived at 6:12 a.m.

Mandatory Attendance. Succession Stability Discussion.

He didn’t need to ask who initiated it.

Margaret never attacked twice the same way.

If media pressure failed

She would shift to infrastructure.

By 8:45 a.m., Lewis stood at the head of the executive conference room at Anderson Holdings.

Twelve board members.

Three legacy investors.

Two external auditors.

And Margaret seated elegantly at the far

  • The Billionaire’s Secret Baby: With His Ex-Wife   Chapter 123: What Still Holds Them Together

    The moment shifted fast. One second, it was just words between them. The next, everything became urgent again. Victor’s hands moved quickly over the console, trying to break through the locked system. Emma stood beside him, reading the data as it changed every second. “It’s resisting,” she said. “He’s blocking manual override.” Victor clenched his jaw. “Not fully. There’s still a gap… but it’s closing.” Daniel stepped forward, scanning the room. “Then we don’t stand here talking.” Sophia nodded once. “We move.” Lewis didn’t hesitate this time. “Victor, Emma get us access. Sophia, Daniel cover them.” They moved immediately. It was instinct. Training. Trust. Lewis turned to Elizabeth. “Stay close.” This time, she didn’t argue. But she didn’t look pleased either. “I’m not fragile,” she said quietly. “I know,” he replied. And he meant it. Still, he positioned himself slightly in front of her as they moved toward the center of the room. Not obvious. But intentional.

  • The Billionaire’s Secret Baby: With His Ex-Wife   Chapter 122: Too Close to Stay Unchanged

    The command deck did not feel like a battlefield anymore. It felt… personal. The air was still tense, but not because of the screens or the failing ship. Something else had taken over. Something quieter, but far more dangerous. Lewis stood in front, facing Adrian Vale, but his focus was no longer divided between strategy and threat. It had narrowed. Sharpened. Everything now revolved around one thing. Elizabeth. The ship trembled again, harder this time. A low, grinding sound echoed through the walls, like the entire structure was beginning to tear itself apart. Victor checked his device quickly. “We’re losing stability fast. At this rate, we don’t have much time left.” Emma looked around the room. “Then we need to end this now.” But no one moved. Because the real tension was no longer just between them and Vale. It was between Lewis and Elizabeth. Elizabeth stood a few steps behind him, her expression calm, but her body was starting to show signs of strain. She tried to

  • The Billionaire’s Secret Baby: With His Ex-Wife   Chapter 121: The Line He Will Not Cross

    The command deck felt different after the truth came out. No one said it aloud, but everyone felt it. The mission was no longer just about stopping Adrian Vale or protecting the Whitmore Protocol. It had become something more personal. Something deeper. Lewis stood a few steps ahead of the team, his eyes fixed on Vale. But his awareness had changed. Every sound, every movement in the room he measured it twice now. Not just as a strategist, but as someone who had something real to protect. Behind him, Elizabeth stood quietly. She did not move closer, but she did not step back either. There was a quiet strength in her posture, even though her body was not at its best. She knew Lewis was aware now. And somehow, that changed the space between them. Not weaker. Stronger. Vale watched them both with interest, like a man studying a new variable in an equation. “You’ve adjusted quickly,” he said, his voice calm as ever. “Most people would hesitate longer.” Lewis did not respond immed

  • The Billionaire’s Secret Baby: With His Ex-Wife   Chapter 120: What He Already Knew

    The command deck was silent. Not the kind of silence that felt empty. But the kind that pressed down on everyone in the room. Heavy. Tense. Unforgiving. Adrian Vale stood at the center, calm as ever. The large screen behind him still displayed the Omega system. Data moved across it in endless streams. But no one was looking at the screen anymore. All attention had shifted. To Elizabeth. She stood beside Lewis. Still. Composed. But her breathing was slightly uneven. Her hand rested briefly on her stomach. Not in panic. Not in fear. But in instinct. Lewis saw it. He had seen it before. Not just once. Many times. The way she slowed down during missions. The way she paused when no one was looking. The way she avoided certain movements. The way her strength dipped… just slightly… at the wrong moments. At first, he had ignored it. Then he observed it. Then he understood it. He just never said it out loud. Now, standing here in front of Adrian Vale… There was

  • The Billionaire’s Secret Baby: With His Ex-Wife   Chapter 119: The Door Between Worlds

    The massive door stood before them. It was tall. Heavy. Reinforced with thick metal layers. This was not just a normal door. This was the final barrier. Behind it… Adrian Vale was waiting. The command deck. The center of control. The heart of everything. Daniel let out a slow breath. “So… this is it.” Emma looked at the door nervously. “It looks impossible to break.” Victor stepped forward and studied the control panel beside it. “This is not a simple lock.” Sophia crossed her arms. “Of course it isn’t.” Victor continued, “It’s connected to the ship’s core system.” Daniel frowned. “Meaning?” Victor looked at him. “If I try to force it… the system may trigger a lockdown.” Emma added, “Or worse… a self-defense protocol.” Elizabeth looked at the door. “So we can’t just blow it open.” Victor nodded. “Not safely.” The team fell silent. Lewis stepped forward. He stood directly in front of the door. His eyes were calm. Focused. “We don’t need to break it.”

  • The Billionaire’s Secret Baby: With His Ex-Wife   Chapter 118: The Warship Labyrinth

    The corridor was dark and quiet again. Only the soft sound of broken wires sparking and distant metal creaking could be heard. Lewis moved first. “Stay alert.” His voice was low, but firm. The team followed him deeper into the Covenant warship. The air inside the ship felt heavy, like the vessel itself was struggling to stay alive. Elizabeth walked beside Lewis. She tried to stay focused, but something felt different. A slight wave of dizziness passed through her. She slowed down for a second. Lewis noticed immediately. He turned to her. “Are you okay?” Elizabeth forced a small nod. “I’m fine.” But she was not completely fine. Her body felt weaker than usual. She did not understand why yet. And she did not want to slow the team down. Lewis studied her for a moment. Then he spoke quietly. “Stay close to me.” Elizabeth nodded. “I will.” They continued forward. The hallway split into three different paths. Victor stepped forward and checked the wall panel. “Th

    Elizabeth had just finished her morning tea when Claire stepped into the living room, posture subtly alert.“There’s a vehicle entering the driveway,” Claire said quietly.Elizabeth’s pulse skipped.“Media?”Claire shook her head slightly.“No. It’s… private.”Before Elizabeth could ask further, sh
