The billionaire brother's lost heiress Chapter 76
CH 76 The BetrayalPOV: ElenaThe call came late in the evening. Elena had just finished reviewing the last report on her desk when her phone lit up.Alexander.She stared at the screen for a second. Something about the timing felt deliberate. Not casual. Not routine. She picked up immediately.“Alexander?”There was no greeting on the other end. Just a brief silence. Then—“Are you alone?”Elena straightened slightly. “Yes.”“Lock your office door.”Her grip tightened on the phone. Without asking questions, she stood and walked toward the door. The soft click of the lock echoed louder than it should have.“I’m alone,” she repeated.Another pause. Then Alexander spoke again, his voice lower, sharper.“I found him.”Elena’s heart skipped. “…What?”“The one leaking information from the board.”Everything inside her went still. For days, they had been circling around shadows—suspicions, patterns, possibilities—but never certainty. Until now.“Who?” she asked quietly.There was a slight

CH 75Sophia’s ShadowPOV: SophiaNight inside the prison always felt heavier than the day. The cold concrete walls seemed to absorb every sound, leaving the corridors wrapped in a strange silence broken only by distant footsteps and the occasional metallic clang of doors locking for the night.Sophia sat on the narrow bed inside her cell, her back resting comfortably against the rough wall. A faint light from the hallway filtered through the iron bars, casting long shadows across the small room. To anyone observing her, she would appear like any other inmate—quiet, contained, and seemingly resigned to her fate.But Sophia was far from resigned.Her calm expression concealed a mind that never stopped moving. While the other prisoners counted their days, Sophia counted possibilities.Her fingers traced the thin seam of the mattress as her thoughts drifted far beyond the prison walls. Hartwell Enterprises. The towering building, the polished boardroom, the executives sitting around the

CH 74The Hidden ConnectionPOV: JulianThe executive floor of Hartwell Enterprises carried its usual atmosphere of controlled efficiency that morning.Assistants moved quickly between offices carrying documents and tablets, the quiet rhythm of their footsteps echoing through the polished marble corridors. Phones rang intermittently behind closed doors while conversations flowed in low professional tones.To anyone observing from the outside, the company appeared as stable and organized as it had always been.But Julian knew that appearances could be dangerously misleading.He stepped out of the elevator and walked down the long corridor leading toward his office. The tablet in his hand displayed the same encrypted communication logs he had reviewed repeatedly since the previous night.Alexander’s instructions echoed clearly in his mind.Observe. Don’t interfere.Which meant the person responsible still believed their actions remained hidden.And for now, Alexander intended to keep it

CH 73Alexander’s InvestigationPOV: AlexanderThe night air was cool when Alexander Hartwell stepped out of the black sedan.The driver closed the door behind him, but Alexander barely noticed. His mind was already elsewhere, replaying the information Julian had sent earlier that evening.Deleted files.Encrypted messages.Subtle irregularities in internal system access.None of it was concrete evidence on its own. But Alexander had built his reputation on recognizing patterns others ignored.And these patterns were beginning to form something dangerous.He glanced up at the quiet office building in front of him. Unlike the towering headquarters of Hartwell Enterprises, this structure was smaller, discreet, and almost forgettable. That was precisely why he used it.Privacy was power.And tonight, he needed power.Alexander walked through the lobby without slowing his pace. The security guard behind the desk greeted him respectfully, but Alexander simply nodded before heading straight

CH 72Julian’s SuspicionPOV: JulianJulian sank into his high-backed leather chair, the late afternoon sun slanting through the tall windows of his private office at Hartwell Enterprises. The building hummed faintly around him—the distant chatter of staff, the occasional ring of a phone, the whir of printers—but in his corner, there was a rare silence. He had deliberately waited until the end of the day to examine the digital records again.After the minor internal fraud had been exposed and Elena’s decisive handling of it, he had assumed the worst of the attacks were behind them. But instinct, honed over years of managing sensitive company information, told him otherwise. Something wasn’t right. Something still lingered beneath the surface.He leaned over the sleek mahogany desk, the glow of the tablet illuminating his concentrated face. With deliberate care, he opened the internal communications logs, cross-referencing board member activity with file access reports. At first glance

CH 71 Lingering DoubtsPOV: ElenaThe Hartwell Enterprises headquarters felt eerily quiet that morning. The soft hum of air conditioning and the distant clatter of keyboards in the open-plan offices were the only sounds accompanying Elena’s measured footsteps toward her private conference room.She had returned to her desk earlier than usual, though the previous weeks’ challenges had left her exhausted. Yet, a restlessness stirred in her chest—a nagging intuition she could no longer ignore. The minor internal fraud she had uncovered had been addressed efficiently, yet something still felt wrong.Elena sat down, her fingers brushing the polished surface of her desk. She picked up the printed reports Julian had left for her the night before. Each line, each number, seemed innocuous, yet her mind kept returning to the subtle irregularities. The adjustments were small, almost trivial, but they followed a pattern.Too precise to be accidental.Her brow furrowed as she scrolled through th
