Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Forever
POV: EvelynThe strange thing about happiness was that it never arrived the way I imagined it would.When I was younger, I thought it would be loud.Some dramatic moment where everything suddenly became perfect.Instead it arrived quietly.On a Thursday.While I stood barefoot in the kitchen making pancakes because Toby had declared cereal "an insult to recovery.""You burned one."I looked over my shoulder."I did not."Leone walked over, stole the pancake straight from the pan and took a bite.He chewed thoughtfully."It's... enthusiastically cooked.""You mean burned.""I was trying to protect your feelings.""My feelings were doing fine until you showed up.""They're still doing fine."He kissed my forehead before taking another bite of the ruined pancake."I'll eat this one.""You don't have to.""I know."He smiled."I want to."That was Leone.He had a way of making tiny things feel important.Toby wandered into the kitchen still wearing yesterday's oversized shirt."Morning."
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Fully recovered
POV: EvelynI thought I was prepared.After everything we'd survived, I honestly believed there wasn't much left that could make me nervous.I'd faced courtrooms.Lawyers.Reporters.DNA tests.Hospitals at three in the morning.Phone calls that changed entire lives.One little follow-up appointment shouldn't have been enough to make my stomach twist itself into knots.Apparently my body disagreed."You've checked the appointment time six times."Leone's voice carried across the kitchen as he poured coffee into a travel mug."I've checked it twice."He looked at me over the rim of his cup."Evelyn.""Fine. Maybe six."He smiled without saying I told you so. One of the things I loved most about him was that he rarely needed to win little arguments. He just let me arrive at the truth on my own.Toby wandered into the kitchen a second later, backpack slung over one shoulder even though we weren't going anywhere near school."Why does everybody look like they're about to write an exam?"I
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Whispers after sunset
POV: RebeccaThe porch light had dimmed to a soft amber glow by the time we finally stood up. Nina’s hand stayed laced with mine as we stepped inside, the screen door clicking shut behind us like a quiet promise. The house was silent except for the low hum of the refrigerator and the distant murmur of neighborhood life. No emergencies. No ringing phones. Just us.I followed her down the hallway, my thumb brushing over her knuckles. In our bedroom, Nina turned on the small lamp on the dresser. Warm light spilled across the bed, catching on the soft linen sheets we’d bought together last month. She looked at me over her shoulder, that knowing little smile playing at the corners of her mouth.“Come here,” she said softly.I crossed the room without hesitation. When I reached her, she cupped my face with both hands and kissed me again—deeper this time, slower, like she had all the time in the world. Her lips were warm, tasting faintly of the iced tea we’d shared on the porch. I melted in
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Rebecca and Nina
POV: RebeccaThe strange thing about surviving a disaster was realizing you suddenly had free time.For months every morning had started with another crisis.Another phone call.Another emergency meeting.Another witness.Another document.Another reason to believe the world was about to collapse all over again.Now...My biggest problem was deciding what to do on a Saturday.It felt suspicious.Nina looked up from the kitchen counter where she was making coffee."You've been staring at that calendar for five minutes."I looked down.I had."I think something's wrong."She frowned immediately."What?""We don't have anything scheduled."She blinked."That's the problem?""I feel like I'm forgetting something."Nina walked over, took the calendar from my hands and looked at it herself."No meetings.""No investigations.""No interviews.""No lawyers."She smiled before handing it back."Rebecca.""What?""I think that's called having a life."I stared at her."I remember hearing about
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Arthur’s Ruin
POV: ArthurThe last thing I sold was the watch.Not because it was the most expensive thing I owned.Because it was the last thing that still belonged to the man I'd spent twenty-five years pretending to be.The jeweler turned it over carefully beneath the bright lights, checked the serial number, inspected the movement, then looked back at me."I can transfer the payment today."I nodded."That's fine."He quoted the number.Six months ago I would've considered it insignificant.Now it would pay my legal bills for another few weeks.Funny how quickly money changed value when it stopped arriving faster than you could spend it.I signed the paperwork, accepted the receipt and walked back onto the street with a wrist that suddenly felt lighter.Not empty.Just...Different.My phone buzzed.Toby: Fishing Saturday?I smiled before answering.Absolutely.The reply came almost instantly.Don't let Leone cheat again.I laughed out loud.People walking past looked at me strangely.I didn't
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Collapse
POV: ArthurThe first person to call me after Samantha's evidence became public wasn't a friend.It wasn't family.It wasn't even someone checking whether I was alright.It was Richard Collins.Board member.Twenty-three years.The same man who had voted to remove me from my own company.I stared at his name lighting up my phone before answering."What?"No greeting.He didn't deserve one."Arthur."His voice sounded different.Smaller."I think we should talk."I leaned back in the chair on my porch and looked out toward the lake behind the house I'd rented after losing everything. The fishing rod Toby had insisted I buy leaned against the railing beside me.Three months ago Richard wouldn't have called.Three months ago he would've asked an assistant.Funny how quickly power changed people."I don't.""Arthur, listen—""No.""You don't even know why I'm calling.""I know exactly why."Silence.Then a sigh."The board is falling apart."I almost laughed."That sounds familiar.""Peop
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Crossing the line
POV: RebeccaI stood in my office with the file open in my hand, going through the report. The last thing I fucking needed was that nitwit yelling at me and Samantha screwing up everything. Right now, everything was already unstable because of Samantha’s stunt, and the last thing I needed was anot
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Hell comes down
POV: ArthurBy the time the third call came in, I stopped answering. Not because I didn’t know who it was. That part was obvious. Every fucking news network wanted to get an interview on Samantha’s latest blunder. It was irritating.I set my phone face down on the desk and leaned back slightly, my
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake The reveal
POV: EvelynThe door hadn’t even fully clicked shut before I exhaled and it was not out of relief. Oh hell no, it was definitely not that.More like amusement.Because really, of all the things I had expected, Rebecca showing up at my door with a quiet little bribe wrapped in concern for “family st
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake A Private Arrangement
POV: RebeccaBy the time I got into the car, I had already decided how this was going to go.There was no point overthinking it. Evelyn was calculative but not unpredictable. She didn’t make random moves, and she definitely didn’t keep something like a child hidden without a reason and if there was
