Chapter 83: Don't Decide Alone (Part 1)

Aвтор: Noxvane
last update publish date: 2026-06-25 14:10:29

POV: Jovan Bradford

The engine of my black sedan roared, a predatory growl echoing against the empty stretch of the Florida coastal highway. I didn't give a damn about the speed limit. The needle climbed, blurring past eighty, then ninety, as I pushed the machine to its absolute limit.

My knuckles were white against the leather steering wheel. My eyes darted across the asphalt, scanning every vehicle that dared to share the road with me.

Where are you, Evelyn?

    POV: EvelynThe Miami sun was a physical weight against the windshield as Jovan’s black sedan pulled into the Meridian Miami parking lot.1:30 p.m.Lunch with Shae, Kendrick, and Noelle had been more than just a celebration; it felt like the first real meal I’d had in weeks that didn’t taste like copper and anxiety. The color was finally returning to my cheeks.Stepping out of the car, I felt the salt-heavy breeze from the coast. Beside us, Damian Vale and the two corporate attorneys from the firm looked like a wall of reinforced steel.The heavy chains that had been dragging behind my heels for months—Archer’s shadow, the fear, the whispers—had finally snapped.Yet, my pace faltered as we reached the glass revolving doors of the lobby.The ghost of yesterday’s humiliation still lingered in the air. I could almost hear the echoes of the judgment that had been thrown at me.Jovan noticed. He didn’t say a word, but he shifted his

    I slowly pulled my hand away from Shae’s. I reached into my bag and pulled out a small, dark blue velvet box. It had been sitting at the very bottom of my suitcase, a heavy piece of history I hadn't been brave enough to touch until now.I stood up and walked toward the desk. Jovan’s entire body went rigid, but he let me move.I didn't look at Archer’s face. I just set the box on the table.Thud."This is yours, Archer," my voice was steady, flat, and devoid of any warmth. "I’m giving it back."Archer stared at the box as if it were a bomb. "No... Evie, don't. You can't give that back. That was our promise."He reached out, his fingers trembling as he tried to touch my hand. I stepped back instantly, the revulsion visible on my face. I looked him dead in the eye."There is no 'us', Archer. There hasn't been for a long time.""But I love you! Everything I did... I did it because I love you!" he screamed, his voice turning hysteri

    POV: Evelyn ReeveThe clock on the wall of the Miami PD precinct clicked toward ten. The air in the room was sharp—a sterile mixture of over-cranked air conditioning and the kind of tension that made the hair on my arms stand up.But I wasn't the same girl who had huddled, shaking, in a corporate restroom stall yesterday.This time, I wasn't alone.I sat on the cold metal bench, flanked by my own personal vanguard. Shae was to my right, her hand clamped firmly over mine. Her gaze was fixed on the interrogation room door, sharp enough to draw blood from anyone who dared walk through it. To my left sat Noelle. She looked like she was ready for a gala, but the way she white-knuckled her designer clutch told a different story."Don't worry, Evie," Noelle hissed, her voice low and dangerous. "If that prick even breathes in your direction, I’m swinging this Birkin. It’s heavy enough to do some real damage."In front of us stood Jovan and Kendrick.

  • The Boss Who Saved Me From My Stalker Ex   Chapter 85: Shards of the Past

    POV: Shae MarloweThe aftermath of the blowout at Meridian Miami should have been the end of it.Management was terrified of a PR nightmare. They had high-profile investors in the building—names that moved markets—and the last thing they wanted was Archer Schuyler’s breakdown making the evening news. Security didn't call the cops. They just dragged him across the marble floor, tossed him onto the sun-baked sidewalk of South Beach, and told him if he touched the glass doors again, they’d bury him in lawsuits.Most men would have slunk away. Most men have a shred of dignity left to protect.But Archer’s ego wasn't just bruised; it was a charred ruin. The alcohol had turned his obsession into a jagged, sharp-edged weapon. He didn't book a flight back to New York. He didn't go to a hotel to sober up.He went to my house.***The quiet of the Miami suburbs was absolute. It was that liminal space just before dawn where the world feels made

    "I can't just what? Stop you from throwing your life away?" I snapped. My voice broke, a jagged mix of exhaustion and the terror that had been clawing at my throat for the last hour. "You think running solves this? You think you can just vanish and everything resets?"Evelyn took a step back, fresh tears spilling over. "Yes! It does! If I’m gone, Archer loses his target. Your reputation stays clean. The firm doesn't have to deal with the fallout of my past!""To hell with my reputation!" I roared, the sound echoing off the closed storefronts."You don't get it, Jovan! I'm toxic!" she screamed back, her hands balled into fists against her chest. "Look at what happened yesterday! You’ve got a bruise on your jaw because of me. You’re being grilled by the board. Your car was keyed. It’s all because I’m in your life!""And you think the solution is to leave? To leave me and Shae wondering if you're even alive?""It’s for your own good!""Whose 'g

The needle climbed, blurring past eighty, then ninety, as I pushed the machine to its absolute limit.My knuckles were white against the leather steering wheel. My eyes darted across the asphalt, scanning every vehicle that dared to share the road with me.Where are you, Evelyn?Every time a rideshare decal or a dark SUV appeared in my peripheral vision, I lunged forward. I’d pull alongside, heart hammering against my ribs, only to find a stranger’s face staring back. Every failure felt like a physical blow to the gut."Dammit, Eve... where are you?" I hissed, cold sweat slicking my palms.My mind raced, mapping out the timeline. Shae had called only minutes ago. Evelyn couldn't have made it to the airport yet. She had to be somewhere near the edge of the dist

    POV: Jovan BradfordThree-thirty in the afternoon.I caught my reflection in the full-length mirror in the corner of my office. A man in a crisp light blue shirt, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, stared back at me.On the surface, he looked like a Senior Executive who had everything under control. I

    My jaw locked. My vision blurred with a sudden, red haze."I knew it," I hissed to myself. "I knew she couldn't just move on from me.""I was wondering," Chloe continued, her voice dropping an octave. "Do you still care about her? Because if not... I’ll just let this go.""Of course I do! We had a m

    There was a pause, followed by the sound of Riley taking a long drag of a cigarette."Schuyler? Man, that guy is a walking disaster zone lately. Ever since Evelyn Reeve pulled her disappearing act and resigned, Archer’s been falling apart. It’s the talk of the water cooler."I strai
