All Chapters of Divorced For The Heiress... But I Was The Real Billionaire : Chapter 21 - Chapter 26

They met at a coffee shop three blocks from Sinclair Global, deliberately unremarkable, the kind of place neither of their usual circles would think to look for either of them.Evelyn arrived first, a folder tucked under her arm, and chose a table near the back, away from the window, out of habit more than necessity. Adrian arrived seven minutes later, glancing around once before he sat, the careful scan of a man who had spent the last two weeks learning to check every room before he trusted it.“Thank you for meeting me,” he said. “I know this isn't exactly standard practice for us.”“Nothing about us has ever been standard practice.” Evelyn slid the folder across the table. “This is everything my legal team found. Four shell companies, at minimum. Financial irregularities that go back a decade. I've had them cross-reference against Kingsley Group's own records for anything that might connect directly to your board.”Adrian opened the folder and read in silence for several minutes,

It took six weeks to build a case Julian couldn't talk his way out of.Adrian's team and Evelyn's legal division worked in careful parallel, never officially connected on paper, tracing every shell company back through layers of intermediaries until the pattern became undeniable even to board members who had spent a decade trusting the Kingsley name without question.

The masked figure had been watching the school for three days before anyone noticed the same car parked at the same distance each afternoon.Security noticed it first, a quiet flag in the daily report Evelyn's head of security brought to her personally rather than routing through the usual channels. A dark sedan, tinted windows, parked just far enough from the school's main entrance to avoid obvious suspicion, present every day at pickup time, gone within minutes of Ethan's car pulling away.“It could be nothing,” the security chief said, though his tone suggested he didn't believe that any more than Evelyn did. “A parent waiting for a different child, a driver killing time. But given everything else happening right now, I didn't want to assume that without flagging it first.”Evelyn studied the photograph he'd brought, grainy, taken from a discreet distance, the car's plates deliberately angled away from any camera that might have caught them clearly.“Increase the detail at pickup a
