Semua Bab After the Breakup, the Billionaire Lost Control!: Bab 511 - Bab 520

Evelyn’s suggestion gave Richard a new lead, and he wasted no time acting on it. Investigating Emma’s past wasn’t difficult. By nightfall, he had compiled her entire background. She was an only child. Her father worked as a bank employee and her mother was a teacher. Her preschool, elementary, middle school, high school, and college years were uneventful.Everything about her life was ordinary until her third year of university. That was when Emma suddenly vanished. For three years, she was completely off the radar. Then, out of nowhere, she resurfaced. Three years?Again, three years?That number—it was the same amount of time Haley had disappeared back when she was still Emily.The overseas trip that Justin had organized, taking Emma and his other graduating classmates along, wasn’t difficult to investigate. Justin hadn’t even bothered to hide it.Everyone within their social circle had known about it, but for those outside of it, access to such informati

The next morning, the sky was clear, not a cloud in sight. After getting dressed, Jacob was ready to head to work, leaving Emma behind at home. “I’ll have someone stall things for you at the branch office, so just stay put here and wait for me. This storm will pass soon, and in a few days, I’ll get you reinstated.” Standing in front of the mirror, Jacob straightened his tie, his tone arrogant—completely disregarding the company’s president as if he were nothing more than a minor inconvenience. In the mirror’s reflection, Emma sat behind him, her head slightly lowered, lost in thought. Clearly, she hadn’t been paying attention to a word he had said. Jacob’s expression darkened instantly. He turned abruptly, striding over to her in just a few steps. His fingers clamped around her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. His voice was sharp, threatening. “Don’t even think about double-crossing me. Like you said, we’re in this together. Justin will never take you back! O

While Justin was busy reviewing emails from his team, he also took the time to coordinate adjustments with Sam, who was managing things remotely in Merika State.Last night's storm had been relentless, but today, the sky was a flawless shade of blue, as if it had been scrubbed clean by the rain.Haley sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, lazily scrolling through her phone. Every now and then, she glanced outside, her boredom evident. The sunlight grew increasingly harsh, so she reached up and pulled the sheer curtains closed, softening the glare.On the sofa, Justin was fully focused on his work, his attention locked onto the screen. But no matter how she looked at it, Haley found him an eyesore.That sofa was supposed to be hers. She could have been lying there comfortably, playing on her phone. Instead, it had become his personal workspace. Annoying.She had slept soundly the night before, completely unaware that Justin had crept into bed and held her in his arms all night. By mo

“Childish tricks,” Justin silently remarked.He was a grown man. He wouldn’t be provoked by such petty games, nor would he waste his energy getting worked up over them. He turned to Haley and commanded with his cold and dark expression, “You’re not allowed to eat his food.” His tone was so authoritative that Haley actually blinked in surprise for a moment. But then she scoffed. “Who does he think he is, telling me who I can or can’t eat with?” she muttered.Sean was her friend—her good friend. He was also Chase and Alex’s god-uncle. What was so wrong about having a meal with him? Without hesitation, she picked up a skewer of grilled meat, took a big bite right in front of Justin’s stormy expression, and let out an exaggerated sigh. “Mmm. Delicious.” Justin’s chest rose and fell sharply, his jealousy barely contained. And Sean, naturally, wasn’t about to let things cool down. “Here, Haley, try this one. Oh—wait, you’ve got something on your lips. Let me w

Haley remained on the balcony, watching until Sean’s car disappeared down the street. Only then did she turn back inside.She then grabbed her phone to send a quick message home, letting them know that Sean had arrived.Just as she hit send, the door swung open.Justin stepped in, his earlier hostility toward Sean nowhere to be seen. He closed the door behind him and walked over to her, his presence noticeably quieter.Haley barely acknowledged him. She spared him a fleeting glance before turning back to her phone, uninterested. Sean had brought her some fruit salad, and since she still had a little room left, she figured she might as well enjoy it. She turned on the TV, settling into her seat comfortably as she snacked.As far as she was concerned, Justin was nothing more than background noise.Justin said nothing at first. He had countless things he wanted to ask, a million thoughts running through his mind, but he already knew that she wouldn’t answer him.In the end, he co
