Evangeline’s Pov The white haired man was named Richard something and he had old money and old connections. He clearly thought he had more power than he actually did.The younger man with cold eyes was named James and he worked in acquisitions and he watched me the entire meal like he was trying to figure out what game I was playing.The other three were forgettable, they agreed with everything Nathaniel said and they did not matter.Dinner took two hours. By the end of it I wanted to leave but I stayed because leaving early would look weak and I could not afford to look weak in front of these men.When it was finally over Nathaniel walked me outside and we stood on the sidewalk while the valet went to get his car

Nathaniel’s PovI sat in the empty apartment across from Evangeline's building and watched her bedroom window and told myself this was about security and not obsession, but that was a lie. I had never been good at lying to myself.The building had cost me forty two million dollars and I had paid cash through a shell company that could not be traced back to me and the whole transaction took less than a week because when you had enough money you could make anything happen quickly.The real estate agent had asked why I wanted to buy an entire building instead of just one apartment and I told her I liked having options and she nodded like that made perfect sense because rich people did strange things all the time and it was not her job to question them.I had chosen th

Evangeline's Pov"Who knows what?""Nathaniel. He knows about the clause and he knows what it means and that is why he has been circling me like a predator."Patricia closed the folder and folded her hands on top of it."If Nathaniel Harrow tries to marry you then you need to be very careful because marriage to him would not just be about shares. It would be about control and power and everything that comes with being part of that family.""I am already part of that family.""No," she said. "You were married into that family. There is a difference. If you marry Nathaniel you become part of it permanently and there is no escape after that."I stood up because I needed to move and I needed to think and I could not do either sitting in this office that smelled like old books and bad news."Is there any way to break the clause?" I asked."Not without going to court and proving that Daniel was not of sound mind when he created it. Which would be difficult given that he was a lawyer himself

Nathaniel's Pov I was reviewing contracts in my office when my assistant knocked and told me that Evangeline had arrived at the restaurant and was waiting for me and I looked at my watch and saw that she was exactly on time which meant she was serious about whatever she wanted to talk about. I told my assistant to cancel the rest of my afternoon and I grabbed my jacket and took the elevator down to the parking garage and drove to the restaurant thinking about what Evangeline might say and what I would say back and how this conversation was going to change things between us. The restaurant was one I owned through a shell company and I had chosen it specifically because the staff knew to give me privacy and

Evangeline's Pov Marcus called me at seven in the morning and told me to meet him at the same coffee shop and to come alone and to make sure nobody followed me and I knew that meant he had found something bad. I took three different cabs and walked the last six blocks and checked behind me every thirty seconds like he taught me and when I finally got to the coffee shop he was already sitting in the back corner with a laptop and headphones and a look on his face that made my stomach hurt. "What did you find," I said as I sat down. He did not answer right away and instead he pushed the headphones across the table. "Listen to this first. Then we will talk." I put the headphones on and he clicked something on the laptop and the audio started playing and at first it was just static and background noise but then I heard voices. Two men talking. The first
