All Chapters of A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother: Chapter 351 - Chapter 360

Amber POVWe were far enough from the island that I had finally stopped watching it.That was when the explosion came.Even through the roar of the helicopter blades, we heard it.A deep, violent sound that seemed to travel across the ocean itself.Everyone turned toward the windows."What was that?" I asked.Mr. Stait was already speaking into his headset."All aircraft, report."One by one, the pilots responded.Nobody had been hit.Then Jason pointed through the window."Amber."I looked.A massive cloud of smoke was rising from the island.From the direction of the beach.My stomach twisted."That was bigger than the others."Secretary Peterson stared at the smoke."Much bigger."Mr. Stait said something quietly into his radio before looking at us."The beach."Nobody needed him to explain further.The place where the bodies had been.The evidence.Possibly the people responsible.Gone.Jason tightened his hand around mine."At least we're not there anymore."I rested my head agai

Amber POVIt took less than twenty-four hours for the accused families to fight back.I wasn't surprised.People with that much money didn't quietly accept being called murderers.They hired lawyers.Public-relations firms.Digital-forensics experts.And, apparently, anyone willing to stand in front of a camera and say the words artificial intelligence often enough to create doubt.The first statement came from one of the families whose private aircraft appeared repeatedly in the island owner's records.They claimed the footage showed safari expeditions.Not human hunts.According to them, the videos had been deliberately edited to remove context.The weapons?For animals.The armed groups?Safari parties.The payments to the island owner?Private hunting fees.The people running through the forest?That footage, they claimed, wasn't real.AI-generated.Within hours, the others followed.Different lawyers.Different families.Almost identical explanations.Some admitted visiting the i

Amber POVThe children found us before we could find them.Jason and I were still sitting at the breakfast table, surrounded by coffee, half-eaten toast, and enough international criminal evidence to ruin several governments, when I heard running footsteps upstairs.Then more footsteps.Then—"Mom!"I barely had time to turn.Alice slammed into me.I caught her instinctively, laughing as she wrapped both arms around my neck."Careful, sweetheart."She immediately loosened her grip."The babies!""They're fine."Alex arrived seconds later.Unlike Alice, he didn't throw himself at me.He stopped.Just stood there staring at us.Jason immediately pushed his chair back."Hey, buddy."Alex's lower lip trembled."You came back."That destroyed me.I opened one arm."Of course we came back."He crossed the room so quickly that I barely saw him move.One second he was standing there.The next, his arms were around me too.Jason joined us, wrapping himself around all three of us."We're here,"

Amber POVBy the time we arrived at the castle, I had already decided that bed rest was a ridiculous concept.I wasn't even sick.My blood pressure was high.The babies were fine.I was fine.I just needed to—"Don't."I turned toward Jason."I didn't say anything.""You were thinking about work.""You don't know that.""I've been married to you long enough."He parked and came around to my side before I could open the door myself.I stared at the hand he offered me."I can walk.""The doctor said bed rest.""She didn't say you had to carry me from the car.""I can.""Try it and you'll need another medical examination."Jason grinned.At least he let me walk.We had barely made it through the castle doors when I realized we had a problem.A woman was sitting in the main sitting room with Mrs. Sun.She looked elegant.Composed.Absolutely furious.Franklin was sitting across from her.He looked like he wanted the floor to swallow him.I stopped."Oh."Jason followed my gaze."Oh."Fran

Amber POVBed rest was torture.Not because I was uncomfortable.The bed was enormous, the pillows were perfect, the room had been adjusted to exactly the temperature I liked, and Mrs. Sun had apparently decided that being placed on bed rest meant I needed to be fed every forty-five minutes.The problem was that everyone had suddenly decided I wasn't allowed to experience stress.Especially Jason."You're frowning."I didn't look away from my laptop."I'm thinking.""You frown when you're stressed.""I also frown when numbers don't make sense.""Which stresses you."I finally looked at him."Are you going to do this all day?""Probably."He was sitting beside me with his own laptop, supposedly helping with the investigation.In reality, he had appointed himself my personal stress monitor.Unfortunately, he was useful, so I couldn't kick him out.Emilia's information had given us somewhere to start.Now Jason and I were following the merchandise.The scheme itself was simple enough.As
