The billionaire's secret vow Chapter 96: The truth
“I’ll explain,” Mira said quietly.She inhaled shakily and said. “Celeste is the one who told me to take the file.”“She said it would help expose the truth,” Mira continued. “She made me believe Aria had hidden things from me.”Aria’s expression shifted slightly but she remained quiet.“For months,” Mira said, her voice shaking, “Celeste kept telling me that my family abandoned me. That my sister knew I was alive and never looked for me. She told me the company should have been partly mine and that Aria deliberately took everything.”Zara frowned. “So you believed her?”“Yes,” Mira nodded slowly, looking down briefly. “I know how stupid that sounds now.”Her voice cracked.“But when someone tells you the same story over and over again, especially when you have nobody else…” She paused. “You start believing it.”Aria folded her hands slowly on the desk.“So stealing confidential company files seemed like the right thing to do?” she asked quietly.“No,” Mira said quickly. “I didn’t thi

“I feel so stupid.”Aria paced restlessly across the office, her heels clicking sharply against the marble floor.“I actually trusted her, Zara,” she said, her voice shaking. “I trusted her.”The office looked almost as scattered as before. Files still sat open on the desk, papers lay carelessly around, and Aria had barely sat down since leaving the security room.She kept on pacing.Back and forth.“How could I be this stupid?” she continued, frustration spilling out of her. “She came into my life acting all innocent, and I just… I believed everything.”Tears slipped down her cheeks.“She’s my sister,” Aria whispered brokenly. “Or at least I thought she wanted to be.”Zara’s expression softened immediately.Without saying anything, she walked over and gently pulled Aria into a hug.“There, there,” Zara said quietly, rubbing circles against her back. “Stop blaming yourself for this.”Aria buried her face against Zara’s shoulder for a moment, letting herself cry.“I should have seen th

“I know it’s here.”Aria yanked another drawer open, files shifting and scattering across the desk as frustration built in her chest.“Aria?”Zara stepped into the office and stopped immediately at the sight before her.Folders were spread across the floor. Papers covered the couch and coffee table. Even the shelves had been half-emptied.“What happened?” Zara asked, shutting the door behind her. “Why is your office scattered like this?”“I can’t find it,” Aria muttered, barely looking up as she searched through another stack.“Find what?”Aria let out a frustrated breath and straightened suddenly. “Oh my God. Zara, help me check your office too.”Zara walked closer quickly. “Wait. Calm down first and tell me what you’re looking for.”Aria pressed both palms against the desk, trying to steady herself.“The company file,” she said. “The confidential one.”Zara frowned. “What co

Mira unfolded the letter slowly, her fingers trembling slightly against the paper.Her grandmother’s handwriting was elegantShe swallowed before reading.“If you are reading this letter, then it means I am gone…”Mira’s chest tightened immediately.“And it also means you found your way back to your sister…”Her eyes moved faster over the words.“I am sorry…”The apology hit harder than she expected.“I tried to stop your mother from taking you away from us, but I failed. That is a regret I carried for many years…”Mira lowered herself slowly onto the couch again.“I made this arrangement because I wanted to leave something behind for you. Not out of guilt alone, but because you are my granddaughter, and you deserved to have a place in this family...”Tears blurred her vision.“Love Aria as much as you can. She suffered too. And I hope she loves you just as deeply in return…”Mira pressed her lips together tightly.“The thirty-five percent shares are my gift to you for all the years w
The billionaire's secret vow chapter 92: The announcement
“Where are Damian and Jaxon?” Aria asked, pacing just outside the conference room doors. “They’re supposed to be here by now.” “They’ll be here,” Zara said, her voice steady even though she kept glancing toward the hallway. “Relax. They won’t miss this.” Aria stopped pacing for a second, then resumed again, her heels clicking lightly against the polished floor. Inside the conference room, the low hum of voices and camera adjustments filtered through the doors. The press and the board were already seated, waiting. Mira stood a little to the side, quiet, watching everything with a composed expression. Two minutes later, Aria finally saw them. Damian and Jaxon walked down the hallway, both focused, both moving with purpose. Relief washed over Aria’s face. Damian reached her first. He didn’t say anything immediately. He just pulled her closer, his hand sliding up her arm before he kissed her softly. “Breathe,” he murmured against her lips. “Everything will be fine.” Aria

“Why don’t you know the date?”Celeste’s voice cut sharply through the room as she paced back and forth, her heels clicking against the tiled floor.Mira leaned against the counter, arms folded, watching her without much reaction. “Because I wasn’t told.”Celeste stopped abruptly. “And you didn’t think to ask?”Mira sighed. “It didn’t seem necessary.”“Not necessary?” Celeste let out a dry laugh. “Your job is simple, Mira. Get close to them. Make them trust you. Get information.”“I don’t need to get close to all of them,” Mira shot back, her tone tightening. “My priority is Aria. I’m here for my shares. That’s it.”Celeste’s eyes narrowed. “You’ve gone soft.”“It’s not about being soft,” Mira replied. “I just want what belongs to me. I’m not here to play family with them.”Celeste tilted her head slightly. “And you believe everything Aria told you? That your grandmother just handed over seventy percent of the company to her like that?”Mira hesitated for a second. “It’s what I was to

Clara rushed to the bed and hugged Zara gently, careful of the wires and tubes."Oh my God." She held the hand that didn’t have an IV attached to it, clutching it like she was afraid Zara might disappear if she let go.“How are you feeling? Are you okay?” she asked in a rush. “You had me worried.”

Clara narrowed her eyes at Jaxon. “So you did research on me? Like you went behind my back and ran a background check?”Her tone wasn’t loud, but it was sharp. The playful mood in the room shifted slightly.Jaxon didn’t flinch. He simply shrugged, his expression calm. “It’s necessary to know detail

After the laughter and hooting died down, Zara said, “We are here for you, babe.”“Thanks, girls,” Clara replied, then scooped a spoonful of pasta into her mouth.“Jeez, Clara. Careful or you’re going to choke,” Aria warned.Clara rolled her eyes and kept chewing, and Zara laughed at them.The next

Chapter 73: The signalDimitri came back to Zara not long after he’d left her alone. This time, he pulled a chair and sat directly in front of her, his posture relaxed, as though they were about to have a casual conversation and not one forced by chains and fear. His eyes studied her with unsettlin
