Chapter Thirty one

“Mrs. Miller, do you feel responsible for Mr. Greg’s death?”Aurora stood outside Thompson Corporation. Surrounded by reporters. Cameras everywhere. Questions shouted from all directions.“Mrs. Miller, is it true the X-City project has been compromised?”“Were you aware of Mr. Greg’s involvement with Goran Milde?”“How will this affect Thompson Corporation?”Security tried to clear a path. But there were too many of them.“No comment.” Aurora kept her head down. Kept moving.A hand grabbed her arm. She spun. A reporter. Microphone in her face.“Just one question—”Kieran appeared. Removed the reporter’s hand from Aurora. Gently but firmly.“Touch my wife again and we’ll have a problem.”The reporter backed off.They made it inside. The elevator. Up to Aurora’s office.Inside, Aurora collapsed into her chair. “That was a nightmare.”“Welcome to crisis management.” Kieran poured her water. Handed it over. “It’ll get worse before it gets better.”“Greg is dead. His son is traumatized. Go

Chapter thirty two

“Aurum Group is officially bankrupt.”Kael set the papers on Piagel’s desk. Final notices. Foreclosure documents. The end. Piagel didn’t look up. Just stared at the wall. He’d been sitting there for an hour. Not moving. Not speaking.“Boss? Did you hear me?” “I heard you.”“The building’s being seized next week. Employees have been notified. It’s over.”“Get out.”“Sir—” “I said get out!” Piagel’s hand swept across the desk. Papers scattered. Coffee mug shattered.Kael left without another word. Alone, Piagel picked up the photo frame face-down on his desk. Aurora. From their first year of marriage. Smiling. Happy. In love with him. He’d destroyed that. Thrown it away for what? For Emerald’s lies. For the Leed family’s empty promises. For his own arrogance.His phone buzzed. News alert.:Thompson Corporation Announces Phase Two of X-City Development. Project Moving Forward Despite Recent Setbacks. Below the headline—a photo. Aurora and Kieran. At some press conference. Her hand i

Aurora’s phone buzzed on the nightstand. She ignored it.It buzzed again.“Check it,” Kieran said. “Might be important.”Aurora grabbed it. Text from an unknown number.“I made a mistake. I know that now. Can we talk? Please. I need to see you. -P”.Her blood went cold.“What is it?” Kieran sat up.Aurora showed him the message.His jaw tightened. “Piagel.”“He hasn’t contacted me in months. Why now?”“Because he’s desperate. His company collapsed. He has nothing left.” Kieran took the phone. “Block him.”“What if he keeps trying?”“Then we’ll deal with it. But Aurora—” He looked at her. “You don’t owe him anything. Not even a response.”Aurora nodded. But something nagged at her.Piagel only reached out when he wanted something.What did he want now?.🪝🪝🪝🪝“You blocked his number?”. Aurora nodded. Cody leaned back in his office chair. They were at Velvet-Noir headquarters. His tech empire spread across three floors.“Good. Piagel’s a parasite. He’ll drain you if you let him.”“I kno

"Lunch. My treat."Aurora looked up from her desk. Piagel stood in her doorway.Her blood froze. "How did you get in here?""I told security I was expected." He smiled. That charming smile that used to make her knees weak. Now it just made her nauseous. "Can we talk?""No. Get out.""Aurora, please. Five minutes.""I have nothing to say to you.""But I have things to say to you." He stepped inside. Closed the door.Aurora hit the panic button under her desk. Silent alarm. Security would be here in seconds."I made mistakes. I know that. But I've changed—""You haven't changed. You're just desperate.""I am desperate." He moved closer. She stood. Backed away. "Desperate to fix what I broke. Us.""There is no us. There never was. I was just convenient until I wasn't.""That's not true—""Isn't it? You used me. My work. My connections. My love. Then threw me away when a better deal came along."Piagel's expression crumbled. "I was an idiot. A fool. I didn't see what I had—""That's not m

Chapter Thirty five

“Aurora!”Kieran’s voice cut through the darkness. Aurora tried to open her eyes. Couldn’t. Everything hurt.“Don’t move her—”“I’m her husband—”“Sir, please step back—”Sirens. Voices. Chaos.Aurora forced her eyes open. Blurry shapes. Lights too bright.“Kieran?”Suddenly he was there. Face pale. Eyes red. “I’m here. I’m right here.”“What happened?”“Car accident. Piagel ran you off the road.” His hand found hers. Squeezed. “But you’re okay. You’re going to be okay.”“Piagel—”“In custody. Diego’s team caught him.” Kieran’s voice was shaking. “Aurora, I thought—when Diego called—I thought—”“I’m okay.” She squeezed his hand. “I’m here.”The paramedics loaded her into an ambulance. Kieran climbed in beside her. Didn’t let go of her hand.At the hospital, tests. X-rays. Scans. Worried doctors. Whispered consultations.Finally, a doctor appeared. “Mrs. Miller. You’re very lucky. Bruised ribs. Minor concussion. But no serious damage.”“Can I go home?”“We’d like to keep you overnight. Fo

"Welcome home, sweetheart."Mrs. Thompson stood at the estate entrance. The mansion looked the same as Aurora remembered. Safe. Secure.Home.Aurora got out of the car carefully. Ribs still aching. Kieran helped her up the steps.Inside, her childhood bedroom had been prepared. But larger. Renovated to include a sitting area. Office space. Everything she'd need."You remodeled," Aurora said."Last year. Hoping you'd visit more." Her mother touched her shoulder. "Now you're here. Not the way I wanted. But here.""It's beautiful.""The master suite is yours and Kieran's. This is your office. If you need space."Aurora hugged her mother. "Thank you."That night, lying in bed with Kieran, Aurora felt strange. Like she'd gone backward in time."You're quiet," Kieran said."Just thinking.""About?""A year ago, I lived here. Broken. Divorced. Lost." She turned to face him. "Now I'm back. Married to you. Successful. But still somehow being protected by my family.""That bothers you.""A litt

“He’s not there.”Diego’s voice crackled through Kieran’s earpiece. Kieran stood in the center of the Riverside warehouse. Empty. Cold. Abandoned.“Check again.”“We’ve swept the entire building. All three floors. The basement. Rooftop. He’s not here, Boss.”Kieran’s jaw tightened. He’d been standing here for twenty minutes. Waiting. While Diego’s team covered every possible angle.Nothing.“He’s watching,” Kieran said quietly. “Somewhere. He wanted to see if I’d come alone.”“Motion sensors picked up nothing. Thermal imaging shows clear. If he’s watching, he’s not in the building.”Kieran turned slowly. Studied the broken windows. The graffiti-covered walls. The exits.“Pull the team. We’re done here.”Outside, Diego met him by the car. “This was a test.”“I know.” Kieran got in. Slammed the door harder than necessary. “He wanted to see if I’d follow orders. If I’d come without backup.”“Which you did. Technically.”“He knows we had teams positioned. He’s not stupid.” Kieran rubbed hi

Chapter Thirty eight

“Board meeting in thirty minutes.”Maya knocked on Aurora’s office door. Handed her a coffee. “You ready?”“As ready as I’ll ever be.” Aurora gathered her files. The Phase Two expansion proposal. Budget projections. Timeline.Everything she’d been working toward.“You look nervous.”“I am nervous. This is the biggest pitch I’ve made since—” Aurora stopped. “Since everything.”“You’re going to be great.” Maya smiled. “They’d be idiots not to approve it.”In the boardroom, twelve faces watched Aurora set up her presentation. Some are friendly. Some are skeptical. Mr. Rutherford in particular looked like he’d already decided his vote.“Good morning.” Aurora clicked the remote. The screen lit up behind her. “Today I’m presenting the Phase Two expansion of the X-City development.”She walked them through it. The residential towers. Commercial spaces. Green infrastructure. Community programs. Every detail is carefully planned.“This is ambitious,” Mr. Rutherford said. “Some might say too amb

"The prosecution is confident."Diego sat in Kieran's office. Files spread across the desk. Updates on both trials. Piagel's and Goran's."The new evidence claim was garbage. Anonymous tip with no verification. Judge threw it out." Diego pulled up the court documents. "Trial proceeds as scheduled. Two weeks from today.""And Goran?""His trial is set for three months. But his lawyer is filing motions. Trying to get evidence suppressed. Witnesses discredited. The usual defense tactics.""Will it work?""Unlikely. But it could delay things." Diego leaned back. "Boss, I need to ask. How long are we maintaining this level of security?""As long as necessary.""That's not sustainable. My team is stretched thin. Costs are adding up. And honestly—we haven't had a legitimate threat in two weeks.""Goran sent those texts—""Which could have been sent from anywhere. We can't trace them. Can't prove they came from him. For all we know, it was someone trying to spook Mrs. Miller."Kieran stood. W

"The investigator checks out."Diego tossed the file on Kieran's desk the next morning. "Licensed. Clean record. Working for a legitimate law firm representing Piagel. He was doing his job.""What about the text?""Untraceable. Burner phone. Dead end." Diego sat down. "Boss, whoever's sending these messages knows what they're doing. They're covering their tracks.""So what do we do?""We wait. Let them make a real move. Then we have them.""And in the meantime?""In the meantime, Mrs. Miller has to be okay with being watched. Because legally, there's nothing we can do about it."After Diego left, Kieran sat in silence. Hating this. Hating feeling powerless.His phone rang. His mother."Kieran, darling. Are you and Aurora still coming for dinner Saturday?""We are. Why?""No reason. Just wanted to confirm." A pause. "How is she? Really?""Tired. Frustrated. But holding up.""And you?""Same.""You know you can talk to me. About anything.""I know, Mom.""Do you? Because you've always b
