The Ruthless Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 15
The office was unusually quiet. Most employees had left for the day, leaving only the soft hum of the air conditioning and the occasional rustle of papers. Elena sat at her desk, staring at the computer screen, but her mind was elsewhere.Lucas’s warning from the other day still echoed in her head."Leave before it’s too late."Why was he so desperate to push her away?Sighing, she rubbed her temples. There were too many unanswered questions, and the past was pressing in on her like a heavy weight.She needed to focus.Adrian had assigned her a report to review before his next meeting. It was a standard financial summary—nothing unusual. She flipped through the documents, scanning numbers and signatures.Then something caught her eye.A file, slightly thicker than the others, was wedged between the reports. The label on the folder read: "Confidential – The Elena Deal."Elena’s heartbeat quickened."The Elena Deal? What was this all about?" She said.Her hands trembled slightly as she

Adrian sat alone in his office, the city lights casting a cold glow through the large windows.Something wasn’t right.For years now, he had believed that Elena betrayed him. The evidence had been clear—a forged signature, a missing transaction, and an email that pointed directly at her. It had all seemed undeniable.So why was he doubting it now?Ever since Elena returned, cracks had started forming in his certainty.She never begged for forgiveness. She never acted guilty.And earlier tonight, when he found her still working, something about the way she looked at him felt different. Almost as if she had discovered something she wasn’t supposed to.Adrian exhaled sharply and leaned back in his chair. His hands clenched as frustration built inside him.He had spent years burying his emotions, convincing himself that he hated her. That she deserved to suffer the way he had.But what if... what if he had been wrong?The thought unsettled him.He grabbed his phone and dialed a number."S

Elena arrived at the office feeling tense. The past few days had been a whirlwind—Adrian was starting to question what really happened years ago, and Lucas was acting strange. Something about the way he tried to shut down Adrian’s investigation didn’t sit right with her.She had barely slept, replaying every detail in her mind. Who had framed her? Who wanted her out of Adrian’s life so badly that they had gone to such extreme lengths?As she settled at her desk, her phone vibrated. A new email notification appeared on the screen.Unknown SenderSubject: Leave While You Still Can.Her breath caught in her throat.With trembling fingers, she opened the email.Elena,You should have stayed away.If you know what’s good for you, you’ll leave Adrian and the company immediately. Otherwise, you’ll regret it.There was no name. No signature. Nothing to identify the sender.Elena’s pulse pounded in her ears. She gripped the phone tightly, her mind racing.Who sent this?Was it Lucas?Or someon

Elena sat at her desk, her fingers hovering over the keyboard. But her mind wasn’t on work.The anonymous threat had shaken her, and Lucas’s reaction made her more suspicious. Was he the one behind it? Or was someone else pulling the strings?Her phone buzzed.She glanced at the screen, expecting another work email. But instead, an unknown number flashed across the screen.Her stomach twisted.She hesitated before answering. “Hello?”There was a pause. Then, a deep male voice spoke.“Elena.”Her breath caught. She hadn’t heard that voice in years.“Who is this?” she asked, gripping the phone tightly.A soft chuckle. “It’s been a long time.”Her pulse quickened. “Nathan?”Nathan was an old colleague, a friend, and someone who had been working at Adrian’s company years ago.The room seemed to close in around her. Why was he calling now?“I heard you were back,” Nathan said. “I wasn’t sure if I should reach out, but then I saw something that made me change my mind.”Elena’s throat went d

Elena sat in her office, her hands trembling as she inserted the flash drive into her laptop. The tiny device felt heavier than it should, as if it carried the weight of the truth she wasn’t sure she was ready to face.The screen glowed to life, and her fingers hesitated over the keyboard. Nathan’s urgent words from the night before echoed in her mind.“You need to see this,” he had whispered, his expression grave. “I found an old security file from years ago, but something’s off.”Now, as she watched the folder load on her screen, her chest tightened with anticipation, her breath coming in shallow bursts.A single file appeared:Security Footage – Finance Department, Night of the Incident.Nathan had named the file carefully, deliberately.Elena’s heartbeat thundered.This was it.The night that had changed everything.With a deep breath, she clicked play.The video flickered to life in black and white.The finance department stretched before her in eerie stillness, its rows of empty

Elena forced herself to stay still, even as her nerves screamed at her to run.She had spent years mastering control, keeping her emotions locked behind a carefully crafted mask. But under Adrian’s unwavering gaze, her walls felt dangerously thin.What does he know?“What is it?” she asked, tilting her head slightly, her voice even.She had perfected the art of playing innocent.Adrian studied her for a moment before speaking. His tone was smooth, but there was an edge beneath it, something calculated.“There’s an important deal on the table,” he said. “And you’re going to handle it.”Elena’s brows furrowed. “Me?”“You.”Adrian leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping an absent rhythm against the desk. His dark eyes never left hers.“It’s high-stakes. Millions of dollars on the line. The kind of deal that could either make or break a company.”Her stomach twisted.This wasn’t just any task. This was a test.Adrian slid a folder across the desk, the movement deliberate. “Review th

Elena stormed into Adrian’s office, her heels clicking sharply against the floor. The sound echoed like gunfire in the silent room, each step fueled by the fire burning in her chest.She didn’t bother knocking.She didn’t care.Elena’s pulse pounded in her ears, but she didn’t hesitate.With a sharp motion, she slammed the folder onto his desk.“You set me up,” she accused, her voice trembling with restrained fury.Adrian arched a brow, completely unfazed by the storm brewing in front of him.“Is that what you think?”His voice was too calm.“You didn’t have to come to the meeting last night, you wanted to see if I’d fail.”Adrian leaned back against his desk, arms crossing over his broad chest. He regarded her for a long moment, his gaze unreadable.“And yet, you didn’t.”Her stomach twisted.“That’s not the point!”“You keep playing these games with me, Adrian. Testing me. Pushing me. What do you want?”His jaw tightened, just for a fraction of a second, but she caught it.“I want t

Elena sat curled up on her couch, her arms wrapped around herself as if that alone could contain the storm raging inside her. Her heart was still racing. She squeezed her eyes shut, but it did nothing to erase the memory of what had just happened.Adrian had kissed her.Not a gentle, hesitant kiss, but something raw, something filled with years of pain, anger, and unspoken emotions, after all these years.She touched her lips, remembering the way he had held her, the heat of his body, the rough desperation in his touch, and in that moment, when his mouth had crushed against hers, it had awakened something inside her—something she had buried long ago, something she thought had died long ago.Desire.Longing.Love.Elena shook her head violently, trying to clear the thoughts clawing at her. It didn’t mean anything, she told herself. It was nothing more than frustration, a desperate grasp for control in a situation where neither of them had any.But even as she tried to convince herself,

The private jet lifted smoothly into the evening sky, slicing through layers of clouds bathed in the golden hues of the setting sun.Inside, Adrian and Elena sat side by side, fingers loosely intertwined, the weight of the past months slowly dissolving with every mile that carried them away from the chaos they had conquered.It wasn’t just a trip.It was a declaration.A declaration that they had survived.That they had emerged victorious.And now, it was time to truly breathe again.The destination was a well-guarded secret, carefully selected by Adrian himself:A hidden island in the Mediterranean, known only to a few, where white sand beaches stretched into infinity and the waters shimmered in endless shades of blue and green.The world could wait.They had earned this.Arrival at ParadiseThe jet touched down smoothly on a private runway tucked between lush palms.A sleek black car awaited them, its driver greeting them with a respectful nod before whisking them along a winding co

The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting golden beams over the towering skyline.For Adrian and Elena, it was more than just the end of a day.It was the end of an era of betrayal—and the beginning of a reign no one could challenge.After the thunderous conference that shook the city's business world, the ripple effects were immediate and unstoppable.Phone lines buzzed.Emails flooded in.Messages of congratulations, partnership offers, and investment proposals poured into the company headquarters, one after the other, as if the heavens themselves had opened in their favor.Top executives from around the world who had once been hesitant—cautious to align themselves with a company mired in scandal—now rushed to forge new alliances.Within 24 hours:Three major international corporations signed fresh partnership deals with Adrian's company.Investment firms scrambled to buy stakes, their confidence in Adrian’s leadership soaring.Prestigious philanthropic foundations offered collabor

The day had come.The city buzzed with anticipation.Whispers had already started circulating through media houses, financial circles, and social platforms:Adrian would make a public statement today.No one knew exactly what to expect.Was he stepping down? Announcing bankruptcy? Surrendering?They couldn’t have been more wrong.The conference venue was a masterpiece of design—elegant and powerful, a mirror of Adrian's legacy. Thick marble columns lined the entrance, and luxurious carpets paved the way to the stage, where a massive backdrop displayed the company’s emblem in bold gold letters.Security was tight.Top executives, loyal board members, press agencies, and investors gathered. Their murmurs filled the vast hall, blending curiosity with tension.Inside a private waiting room, Adrian stood before a full-length mirror.He adjusted his dark suit—a deep navy tailored perfectly to his recovering frame. His shoulder was still bandaged beneath the fabric, but he carried himself ta

The soft murmur of the household quieted as the evening crept in, but inside Adrian's estate, the fire had just been lit — not in the hearth, but in the hearts of Adrian and Elena.Adrian sat in the lounge, dressed in a comfortable but elegant set of dark clothing, his injured shoulder carefully supported. The doctors' words still echoed in his mind: "Take it easy. Build your strength."But Adrian had never been the kind of man to sit idle while the world moved around him.Especially not now.Elena entered the room, a tablet and a thick file of papers in her arms. She set them down carefully on the coffee table in front of him and took a seat by his side, her expression serious but calm."You shouldn’t stress yourself yet," Elena said softly, brushing a lock of hair behind her ear.Adrian reached out, covering her hand with his. "Sitting still isn’t healing me, Elena. Planning our next move is."She saw the fire in his eyes—the determination, the quiet fury—and she knew better than to
The Ruthless Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 137
The day had finally come.After days of careful treatment, endless tests, physical therapy sessions, and emotional battles fought silently in the quiet hospital room, Adrian was ready to go home.It was a crisp morning—the kind of morning that smelled like new beginnings. The sun gleamed against the hospital windows, lighting the room with a soft, golden glow. It felt symbolic, as if even the heavens recognized the rebirth happening inside these four walls.Elena stood by Adrian’s side as the doctor completed the final discharge procedures. She clutched his hand tightly, her fingers warm and reassuring around his."Congratulations, Mr. Adrian," the doctor said with a smile. "You’ve defied the odds. Your recovery has been nothing short of remarkable. Just make sure you take it easy for the next few weeks. No heavy stress, no strenuous activities yet. Let your body continue to heal."Adrian nodded, gratitude filling his chest. "Thank you, doctor. For everything."The doctor patted his g

Morning came with a soft, golden light flooding the hospital room. The air was lighter somehow, infused with a sense of hope that had been missing for days. Elena sat by Adrain’s side, her hand intertwined with his as he drifted between sleep and wakefulness. This time, it wasn’t the heavy, unconscious kind of sleep—it was natural, healing.When the doctors arrived for their rounds, they were greeted by the sight of Adrain awake and more aware than the day before."Good morning, Mr. Adrian," the head doctor said with a wide smile. "Ready for a little work?"Adrian gave a faint smirk. "I’ve been working all my life. What’s a little more?"Elena chuckled softly, squeezing his hand.The doctors set about their task with efficiency, conducting a series of tests and scans. They wheeled in portable imaging machines, taking fresh X-rays of his shoulder and his chest. Blood was drawn to check for infections or hidden complications. Heart monitors were attached to assess the rhythm and strengt
The Ruthless Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 135
The hospital room was hushed, bathed in the golden hue of the late afternoon sun filtering through the blinds. The rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor had become a strange kind of lullaby to Elena, as she sat upright, holding Adrain’s hand like a lifeline.It had been days now. Days of endless waiting, silent prayers whispered into the sterile air, and tireless vigilance.Elena’s eyes fluttered open after a brief doze. As she shifted slightly, her phone buzzed on the small table beside her. Picking it up with careful hands, she quickly dialed a number — the chief house staff.The call connected immediately."Hello ma'am," the man’s voice was steady and respectful.Elena didn’t waste time. "Please make sure the house keeps running. I want everything maintained as usual. No changes. No slackness. I need the house ready for Adrain when he returns home.""Of course, ma'am, "he responded without hesitation. "I'll oversee everything personally. Everything will be perfect for Mr. Adrain's
The Ruthless Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 134
The hours dragged by with agonizing slowness.Elena remained rooted to the chair beside Adrain’s hospital bed, her hand never leaving his. The steady beep of the heart monitor was the only assurance she had that he was still here with her, still fighting his silent battle to wake up. Despite the doctor’s reassurances, a small, stubborn part of her heart refused to relax. Not until she saw his eyes open and heard his voice.She refused to leave him.Not even for a second.Nurses came and went, quietly checking vitals, changing IV bags, and recording notes, but Elena barely noticed them. Her whole world had narrowed down to the rhythmic rise and fall of Adrain’s chest.Sitting there, in the dim, sterile light of the hospital room, her mind couldn’t help but drift—back through time, reliving the journey they had traveled together. The memories played like an old movie reel before her tired eyes.She remembered the first time she met Adrain, the strength in his voice, the kindness hidden
The Ruthless Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 133
The soft murmur of voices around her slowly pulled Elena from the depths of her sleep. Her body, sore and stiff from the long hours of remaining in the same position, slowly began to stir. The cool surface of Adrain's hand beneath hers was the only comfort she needed to anchor herself in the waking world.She shifted, trying to blink the sleep from her eyes, feeling the weight of exhaustion still hanging on her shoulders. As her gaze focused, she realized the warmth she had sought in her sleep wasn’t the faint echo of her own body, but Adrain's hand, still clasped in hers.She didn’t want to let go. But she had to.A soft knock on the door broke the quiet."Mrs. Elena?"The voice was kind and familiar, and Elena turned toward the sound, her eyes still bleary from the long night of worrying. The doctor entered, a warm smile already playing on his lips. He was the same doctor who had reassured her last night, and his calm presence helped settle the anxiety that had started to rise in he
