Semua Bab I Married A Billionaire, Who Wanted Revenge!!!: Bab 61 - Bab 70

ELOWEN The office floor seemed frozen in disbelief. I didn’t flinch though, I wouldn't. Not now. Because in that flash, in that viral moment, I had realized something fundamental— if a man had stood beside me in my hardest times regardless of his intentions, I would back him up when he needed to, and of course, when I knew that he wasn't on the wrong side. “Miss Corvella—” Said one reporter, “so you're admitting all the flying words of you and Mr. Veyrek being together?” They're again on it, ain't they? I smiled politely. “I didn't understand which flying words you're indicating, sir. After all, there are too many.” “And for this particular issue, yes, indeed I was with Alexander most of the time, well actually, all the time due to our recent ongoing project that needed urgent attention. And not only me, other employees are working harder and tirelessly. So, yes, the words of our partnership together, indeed it's true.” My words shut down the reporters. And honestly, I di

ALEXANDERThe moment the words registered in my head— Miss Elowen Corvella’s device— my body coiled. No, not with disbelief or doubts. But with a surge of pure, molten rage... Someone had dared, actually dared to use her name to sabotage me. And that… was unforgivable.All the while I had been staring at her. She slowly came out from the lounge, looking concerned and curious like a little kitten. I was right, wasn't I? She was too innocent for this world and that made me even more protective of this woman. However, she also should know how much more capable this world is to destroy her… Therefore, I put the intercom on speaker. “Say it again,” I ordered, coldly. Kael, the official investigator from the IT department I had put into, was quiet for a moment, and then— “Sir, we have traced the fabricated files that were used against you. The IP address wasn’t external.”Her beautiful eyes widened. “Where did it come from?” I asked again, allowing her to hear it. “From inside the V.

ELOWENI woke up slowly, aware of the lingering warmth beneath the sheets, the subtle soreness that reminded me of the night before. My chest tightened, heart still fluttering, and my skin hummed from the memory of him— Alexander. Even now, the faintest touch, the lingering kiss at the corner of my mouth, made me shiver.A small, selfish smile curved on my lips. I would never admit it before, but I would want last night to happen just like that— intense, possessive, unapologetic. And he had… satisfied me, both emotionally and physically. The memory made my pulse race all over again.As I was drifting into last night's thoughts— My phone rang, shattering the delicate quiet of the morning, and my sweet moments. I froze, half-hoping it would go to voicemail. But, Of course, my luck wasn’t that kind. The screen read ‘Mom’. I hesitated, my thumb hovering. Avoiding her and all other calls from my family was something I had done in the last few years, and these recent days, I had just per

ELOWEN Twenty more minutes passed by, and their work was still going on. I couldn’t sit back anymore and stepped out of the lounge, and heard their conversations… “Director, finding out the person behind the hoodie, seems almost impossible. That person seemed to have knowledge of all the surveillance cameras in the office, except hidden ones. However, he was too cautious to not let himself be shown, so he wasn't even caught in any hidden cameras, except the one in Miss Corvella’s workstation.” Alexander stood near the window behind his desk in silence, his eyes were cold and unreadable. He didn’t speak for a while, and then… “What about the fingerprints?” He asked, seemingly to David. “Nothing, sir. He was too careful.” Then again, everything turned silent. And it was thick, almost painful. Specifically for the employees in the room, they were truly uncomfortable. Inhaling a deep breath, I walked toward Alexander and stood beside him. His eyes were staring out of the window t

ELOWEN I swallowed hard, looking up at him. “What!?” I was breathless. His gaze locked in mine, “what do you want to ask?” I licked my lips. Almost denying, but then, I took the chance, mastering the courage and asked— "Umm, Liora— I was thinking of how close you are with her.” And once the question slipped I knew I might have asked it wrongly, because his gaze has now turned quite curious. “I mean, I had seen her a while ago— going out of your office.” I added hurriedly, of course lying. I didn’t see her, instead I heard her. “Then I thought of the way she calls you, which indicates your strong— bond. So, I was just curious… After all, I know nothing about you.” The last part wasn't a lie, I truly know nothing about him except what he had given me. He watched me for a while, eyes scanning me and for a moment, I felt perhaps I asked too much and I shouldn't have done that. I should apologise. But then— “We were friends from college.” He said, gaining my eyes
