You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 32: She’s Taking Everything
Security officers from both firms moved simultaneously.Darrell lunged for Tristan again, but Tristan caught his wrists mid-air, a quick, wild left hook catching Darrell flush across the cheek.The glass office instantly erupted into shouting, the sharp scrape of heavy leather chairs, and the ugly, violent sound of a corporate partnership disintegrating in real time.“Enough!”Lyra’s voice cut through the chaos—not a scream, but an absolute, razor-sharp command. She stood up from her chair, looking at both of them with profound disgust. “Do neither of you have an ounce of shame left?!”Helios tactical security immediately stepped into the breach, physically forcing the two men apart. Coles’s own internal security guards froze in place, utterly unsure whose authority ranked higher in a building that no longer felt like anyone was in control.Laurent didn't raise his voice. If anything, a low, amused chuckle threatened to break past his lips as he enjoyed every second of the spectacle
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 31: HER
The private executive elevator at Coles Industries opened onto a floor that already carried the sharp, metallic stench of pure corporate panic.Lyra stepped out first. Laurent maintained his position half a pace behind her, his presence an absolute shield. Owen and two towering Helios tactical security officers followed in a disciplined second line—visible enough to command total respect, yet understated enough to avoid looking like a federal raid.The moment her heels hit the polished marble floor, the entire open-plan office fell dead silent. Whispers erupted instantly across rows of cubicles as employees nudged each other, side-gossip spreading like wildfire.A few senior analysts even offered faint, hopeful smiles, praying that Lyra Quinn had returned to save the sinking ship one last time.Lyra swallowed hard, keeping her head held high. This building used to be her second home—before her life and her work were ripped away from her.She had only taken a dozen steps down the mai

Laurent did not raise his voice—which somehow made the moment infinitely worse. Lyra couldn't tell if he was furious or completely detached. But his dark eyes never once left hers.“You went to the hospital,” he repeated softly. “After Lang used it as direct leverage on that jetty. After an ambush. After I asked you directly.”Lyra locked her phone screen and set it face-down on the glass table.“I went because the formal notices weren't going to stop,” she admitted, coming clean because she knew no cover story would save her from his scrutiny. “And because someone else already attempted to pull that exact file last week.”“You told me you went to see your mother.”“I told you what I could afford to say in a war room with your CTO twenty feet away,” her voice remained steady, unyielding. “It’s personal, Laurent. But it’s also no longer just personal. That threat on my phone made sure of it.”Laurent’s silence stretched tightly between them, heavy with everything he was holding back—t

The high-ceilinged lobby held the suffocating stare long enough for the entire front security desk to freeze.Tristan broke first—not out of surrender, but out of watching his own calculations fail in real time.“You’re the sole reason for her attitude!” Tristan hissed, taking a step toward Laurent. “You think I don't remember you at the hospital? Holding my wife in your arms?!”“Ex-wife,” Laurent corrected, completely unshaken. He stared down into Tristan’s eyes with a cold, unyielding stillness.The hatred between them was mutual and lethal.“This is far bigger than your damn pride, Crawford!” Tristan snapped.“No,” Laurent countered quietly. “It’s exactly the size of her personal safety. Now leave.”Darrell placed a firm hand on Tristan’s shoulder before his boss could make an irreversible mistake.“We hear you loud and clear, Mr. Crawford,” Darrell interjected smoothly, before meeting Laurent’s gaze. “We’ll transmit whatever data we have through proper channels—not through lobby s
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 28: Need me My Ass
Laurent's posture locked into a rigid, impenetrable wall the second he stepped into the lobby. He didn't offer a handshake.“Mr. Cole.”Tristan looked like a man who had fought a losing battle with his own pride the entire drive over. He was desperate to get this humiliation over with quickly. Standing beside him was Darrell Meyer—lean, tense, with sharp eyes that missed absolutely nothing.“We need Lyra,” Tristan demanded directly. No polite greeting, no corporate pleasantries. Just the raw, frantic demand born from a sleepless night.Laurent’s expression didn't flicker. Not once.“Miss Quinn is unavailable for external consultations,” he replied smoothly, placing both hands into his pockets as though the man standing before him carried zero weight.“This isn't an external issue!” Tristan stepped closer to the reception desk, coming to a sudden halt when Laurent’s still, towering presence made the space feel instantly smaller. “A major client is about to dismantle what’s left of my
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 27: What a Surprise
The memories of persuading Mr. Noah to become a primary partner for Coles Industries flooded back as she stared down at the text message once more from the backseat of the vehicle taking her home.She could still vividly remember how Tristan had scooped her up into his arms that night, spinning her around the living room with roaring laughter when she broke the news of securing their biggest corporate investor.There had been so much joy back then—so much genuine togetherness.What changed?Why had he stood in front of her years later and claimed he no longer loved her—when everything she had ever done was dedicated to building his empire from the ground up?A wave of bitter hatred washed over her, and this time she deleted the notification banner without a second thought.Damn his message. Damn his fucking company. He was no longer her burden to carry.He could seek salvation somewhere else.Suddenly, her phone screen illuminated again. This time, a cold, automated notification pop
