Three Nights To Ruin My Husband Chapter 82: A Risky Plan
The call came in at ten that night, Adrian's phone lighting up with a name I didn't recognize."That's my contact inside Ash's company," he said, already answering. "The one who confirmed the board meeting."I watched his face change as he listened, something tightening around his eyes that hadn't been there a moment ago."When," he said. Then, "How many." A pause, longer this time. "Understood. Thank you for telling me tonight instead of tomorrow."He set the phone down slowly."The board meeting already happened," he said. "Early. They moved it up without telling Ash until an hour before, which means he walked in with no idea what was coming.""What happened?""They voted to install an independent monitor over all financial operations, effective immediately. Ash still holds his title, technically, but he can't move a dollar without sign-off from someone the board appointed themselves. It's not quite a removal, but it's close enough that the distinction probably doesn't feel real to
Three Nights To Ruin My Husband Chapter 81: Adrian's Next Move
"We keep chasing threads that dead-end on purpose," Adrian said, pacing the length of his kitchen. "Whoever's behind this is good enough to make sure every lead either loops back to nothing or takes weeks to trace. I think we need to stop playing their game and go back to the one thing we know is real.""The ledger.""The ledger." He stopped pacing, meeting my eyes. "Everything else … the audit, the verification chain, Mia's fragments, Ash's paranoia … it's all circumstantial until we have something that actually shows where the money went after it left Cross Holdings. The ledger's still sitting in that safe. It's the only piece of this we know exists, know the location of, and haven't managed to actually get."I sat with that, some old exhaustion resurfacing at the thought of it … the safe, the office, the night weeks ago when we'd first tried and nearly gotten caught. "We tried this already. It didn't work.""We tried it before the freeze, before the grand jury, before Ash was distr
Three Nights To Ruin My Husband Chapter 80: Ash Notices the Meeting
Ash called twice before I let myself answer."You met with her." His voice had none of its usual polish, stripped down to something raw and unsteady. "Behind my back. After everything I told you about being careful.""I don't answer to you anymore, Ash. I haven't in weeks.""You don't understand what you've done." Something close to panic moved underneath the anger, unmistakable even through the phone. "Whatever she told you, whatever the two of you think you've figured out … you have no idea who's actually listening right now. None.""Then tell me who.""I can't. Not like this, not over a phone I can't be sure is even secure anymore." A ragged breath. "I need you to understand something, Elena. This isn't just about the fraud anymore. My own board is asking questions I can't answer. Money's missing from accounts I never touched, moved through channels even my own CFO can't trace back to a source. Someone's been operating inside my company for months, and I only just started realizing
Three Nights To Ruin My Husband Chapter 79: A Shared Enemy
"We need to actually think about what we do with this," I said, "before either of us does anything that tips Ash off that we've even talked."Mia nodded, sliding back into the booth instead of leaving. "Agreed. If he finds out we've compared notes, he'll assume the worst about both of us at once, and I don't think either of us can afford that right now.""So what do we actually do?""I keep my ears open. That's what I'm best positioned for, whether either of us likes the reason why." Something steady entered her voice, a resolve I hadn't expected from her. "He still talks to me sometimes. Not the way he used to, not with any real trust left in it, but old habits don't disappear just because the reason for them did. If he says anything else useful, I tell you. Directly, not through anyone else.""And I do the same, on my end. Whatever Adrian's team finds, whatever the prosecutor tells my lawyer … anything that touches you or explains what actually happened to that house, I'll make sure
Three Nights To Ruin My Husband Chapter 78: Mia's Own Betrayal
I sat back down slowly, my coat still half on, something in Mia's face telling me this wasn't going to be a short confession."He proposed to me," she said. "Not officially … no ring, nothing either of us would have called a real engagement out loud. But he told me, more than once, that once the divorce was finalized, once enough time had passed that it wouldn't look calculated, he wanted to marry me. He had a timeline. He'd even mentioned a venue once, some private property upstate he said his family used to own."I felt something cold settle low in my stomach, an old, familiar ache dressed up in unfamiliar clothes. "When did he tell you this?""Early. Before you ever found out about us. Before I understood what kind of man I'd actually attached myself to." Her voice had gone quiet, stripped of the composed ease she usually wore. "I believed him completely. I used to lie awake picking out which of my friends I'd invite, which season would be best for the ceremony. I built an entire f
Three Nights To Ruin My Husband Chapter 77: Coffee With the Enemy
The diner smelled like burnt coffee and bacon grease, the kind of place that hadn't updated its décor since before either of us was born, exactly the sort of anonymous corner Mia had promised.She was already in the back booth when I arrived, ten minutes early despite myself, a cup of coffee going cold in front of her that she clearly hadn't touched."You came," she said, not quite a question."I told myself I wouldn't." I slid into the seat across from her. "Then I sat with it long enough that not coming started feeling like exactly the kind of caution I've been trying to unlearn.""That's fair." She wrapped both hands around her cup, warming them without drinking. "I wasn't sure you would, after everything. I wouldn't have blamed you for staying home.""Why now. You've had weeks to reach out about my father. Why did you wait until now."Mia was quiet for a moment, choosing her words with a care that felt different from the performed ease I remembered from the gala."Because I didn't
