Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Peace
Evelyn~The strange thing about peace was how quietly it arrived. There was no dramatic moment where someone announced everything was finally over. No fireworks. No speeches. No sudden magical feeling that the weight had disappeared. Instead, life simply kept moving. Only this time it moved without fear.I noticed it one Tuesday morning when Toby complained that we were out of cereal. Not medicine. Not court dates. Not reporters. Just cereal. I stood in the kitchen staring at him while he frowned dramatically into an empty cupboard.“What?” “You just complained about breakfast.” “So?”I could not stop smiling. “So nothing.”He narrowed his eyes suspiciously. “You are being weird.” “I have always been weird.” “Yeah, but today you are smiling while doing it.”He was not wrong. Somewhere along the way we had stopped surviving. Now we were just living. I had almost forgotten what that looked like.Leone walked into the kitchen carrying a toolbox under one arm. “The upstairs bathro
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake Detained
Samantha~The interrogation room was disappointingly ordinary. Gray walls. Metal table. Two chairs bolted to the floor. A security camera tucked into the corner. Cheap fluorescent lights buzzed just enough to become irritating after a few minutes. I had expected something more dramatic. Then again, dramatic was for television. Real life had always been painfully boring.I folded my hands on the table and waited. Patience had built my empire. It could survive one interview.The door opened. Two investigators stepped inside. Neither smiled. Neither looked intimidated. Interesting. Most people eventually did.One introduced himself. “Detective Collins.”“I know.”He did not react. The woman beside him placed a recorder on the table.“This interview is being recorded.”“Naturally.”Click. The red light came on. Collins opened a file.“You have been arrested on multiple charges.”“I heard.”“Fraud.” “Money laundering.” “Witness intimidation.”I smiled faintly. “Allegedly.”He ignored
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake The hospital(3)
Arthur~Nobody spoke above a whisper. Not because anyone had been told to. Because silence felt safer. The operations room sat inside an unremarkable government building on the edge of the city. Beige walls. Fluorescent lights. Terrible coffee. If someone walked in without knowing what was happening, they would assume it was another ordinary Monday. It was not.Every person in this room was waiting for one woman. One woman who had spent years staying three steps ahead of everyone. One woman who had destroyed careers. Destroyed families. Destroyed lives. One woman who had somehow convinced herself she would never lose.A digital clock on the wall changed. 9:58. Two minutes. Nobody moved. Detective Collins stood beside the main screen, arms folded tightly across his chest. “Vehicle teams are in position.”Someone answered through his headset. “Confirmed.” Another voice. “North exit covered.” Another. “South access secure.”Everything sounded calm. Too calm. I had learned that the most d

Arthur~The call came at 4:17 in the morning. I had been awake for almost an hour already. Sleep and I had not exactly been on speaking terms lately. I reached for the phone before the second ring.“Arthur.”“Do not hang up.”Detective Collins. His voice was clipped. Professional. The kind of voice people used when they already knew your day was about to get significantly worse. I sat up. “What happened?”“We found her.”For a second my brain refused to process the sentence. Then it did. My feet were already on the floor before I realized I had moved. “You found Samantha?”“We believe so.”Believe. Not confirmed. Close enough to matter. “Where?”“I will explain when you get here.”The line went dead. No details. No reassurance. Nothing. I looked at the clock again. 4:18. Something about the time made everything feel unreal. Like the world was not supposed to change before sunrise. Apparently nobody had told Samantha that.By six o’clock the task force headquarters looked more like a m
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake The hospital
Evelyn~Hospitals smelled exactly the same no matter how many times you walked into them. Disinfectant. Coffee that had been sitting too long. Freshly cleaned floors. Fear. I used to think that last one was in my imagination. Now I was not so sure. Maybe fear actually had a smell. If it did, I had lived with it long enough to recognize it anywhere.Toby walked beside me, hands shoved into the pockets of his hoodie, looking significantly less nervous than I felt. Naturally. The child who was actually getting examined had somehow become the calm one. Meanwhile my stomach had been in knots since six that morning.Leone noticed. Of course he did. He reached over and squeezed my hand. “You have checked the appointment time four times.”“I have checked it twice.”He raised an eyebrow. “Six.”“…Fine.”Toby looked back at us. “You guys are weird.”“Your mother is weird.”I gasped dramatically. “The betrayal.”Leone smiled. “I will recover.”Toby snorted. “I do not think she will.”Wonderful.
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake The list
Evelyn~I realized I was in love with Leone because of a grocery list. Not a dramatic confession. Not some life-changing moment where music played in the background and everything suddenly became obvious. A grocery list. Which honestly felt unfair. People should get better stories than that. At the very least there should have been fireworks. Instead, I was standing in the kitchen staring at a piece of paper stuck to the refrigerator. That was it. That was the moment.The list was not even interesting. Milk. Eggs. Bread. Coffee. Orange juice. The normal boring things people bought every week. The thing that caught my attention was not what was on it. It was the handwriting. Half of it belonged to me. The other half belonged to Leone. And somehow that simple fact hit me harder than it should have. Because when had that started? When had we become people who shared grocery lists?I stood there staring long enough that Toby eventually wandered into the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator

Rebecca~The first notification arrived at 8:17 in the morning. I only remember the exact time because it seemed completely harmless. One message. One alert. One tiny interruption. Nothing important.By 8:45, the entire company was on fire.My phone started vibrating before I even stepped out of th

POV: Rebecca“She’s been preparing to leave everything behind for years.”Nina’s voice stayed low, almost careful, like she was afraid saying it too loudly would make it more real.I didn’t answer immediately.My eyes were still on the screen, but the words had stopped making sense in a straight li

POV: EvelynThe first thing I noticed the next morning was the man standing near the front gate. I almost dropped my coffee mug. Not because he looked obviously threatening, but because he absolutely did not belong there. He wore dark clothes, sunglasses, and one of those earpieces that screamed pr
Three years, Three Billion dollars- His worst mistake The Dead Witness
POV: EvelynI didn’t breathe a word about the shadowy figure on the beach to anyone.Not to Leone. Not to Marshall. Not to Rebecca. And definitely not to Toby. He was a child but still on the list. The more daylight poured into the house, the more insane the whole thing sounded in my head.“
