All Chapters of Forbidden Balance - A Dark CEO Romance: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Emilia and Julian sat tightly wrapped on the sofa in his penthouse. The City lights sparkled behind the windows, but the atmosphere in the room was heavy. The confrontations with their fathers weighed on them like an invisible weight. “I want to understand,” Emilia whispered, his head on his chest. “Why do they hate themselves so much? What really happened between Alexander Voss and Victor Blackwood?" Julian sighed deep and shredded her through her hair. “It’s a long story. One who 20 years ago began.” He drew them closer to him and began to tell the voice of the memories: “My father and your father were former partners. You have the Voss-Blackwood Group founded together – a huge empire in the financial and tech industry. Your Father was the visionary, the strategist. My father was the man with the contacts, ruthless negotiators. Together they were invincible.” Emilia listened attentively, her fingers drew circles on his chest. “Then the betrayal came,” continued Julian.

Emilia sat with her mother Lena in the quiet living room of the family house. The younger siblings were outside with Alexander in the garden. The air was warm and peaceful, but Emilia's heart was heavy. “Mama,” she started quietly, “how did you do that then? With Dad? All have said it was impossible. He was the powerful CEO, you the spy that destroys him should. How did you survive that?" Lena smiled gently, a smile full of memories. She took her daughter's hand and began to tell the voice warm and honest: “It wasn’t easy. Your father was a very cold man back then. Powerful, dominant, incomplete. When I came to his office, I should destroy him. Instead, he has me the first night already taken on his desk – hard, possessive, as he wanted to mark me.” Emilia slightly reddened, but listened to faint. Lena continued, "I fell in love with him immediately. Against my will. Against my order. Against everything. We fought, loved, fought. There was Nights when he pushed me again

Emilia and Julian were sitting in the darkened work room of Julian's Penthouse. Before they lay old files, usb sticks and printed documents that Julian of a had received old contact. “Are you ready?” Julian asked quietly and pressed her hand. Emilia nodded even though her heart burst. “I need to know. If this organization my mother hired at that time... then she affects all of us." Julian opened the first file. A red logo appeared – a black shadow, the one Libra. Shadow Balance. “That’s her,” Julian said seriously. “A secret organization that has been Years exist. It consists of former secret servants, corrupt billionaires and politicians. Your goal: to “regulate the balance of power” by Manipulate, bribe or destroy companies and persons.’ Emilia scrolled through the documents. Her breath stopped. “My mother...” she whispered. “She was one of them. Not voluntary. She was extorted.” Julian nodded. “Just right. And my father was one of their most important financiers. He

Next evening the first secret meeting was held in the private conference room of the Voss Towers. The atmosphere was tense. Alexander sat at the head end of Table, the Miene hard like stone. Lena sat beside him, quiet and attentive. Emilia Romagna and Julian sat against them, their hands intertwined under the table. Alexander looked at Julian long before he spoke. “I don’t trust you, Blackwood. But the evidence against Shadow Balance are clear. They are stronger than our hatred.” Julian nodded respectful. “That’s enough for me to start.” Emilia pushed the collected documents into the middle. “They have all targeted us. Elena is just the tip of the iceberg. Shadow Balance has informants in both Company. They want to play us against each other and then both groups take over. Lena bowed. “I know their methods from the past. You work with extortion, fake news and targeted Sabotagens. We must act quickly.” Alexander looked at Julian sharply. “What are you suggesting?” Julian

Just a few hours after the press conference, Shadow Balance beat back. Emilia and Julian were just in his penthouse when both phones were simultaneously vibrated. An answer to the biggest economic newspaper: „Schock bei Voss & Blackwood: Illegal monetary flows discovered – Shadow Balance or internal corruption?” Among them were fake documents that suggested that Julian Gelder from the Blackwood Dynamics had moved to offshore accounts – allegedly on instruction by Alexander Voss. Another article claimed that Emilia had confidential data their father passed on to Julian. Julian cursed loud and threw his phone on the table. “They are fakes.

Emilia took off, put on Speakers. “What the hell is that?” Alexander thundered through the room. “Blackwood if you used my daughter to finish me...” Julian went to the phone. “These are fakes of Shadow Balance
