All Chapters of He Divorced Me Dying, Now I’m His Billionaire Boss: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Vanessa Hart had always loved attention.She loved the sound of expensive heels against marble floors, the flash of cameras, and the way conversations paused whenever she entered a room. She believed admiration wasn't earned—it belonged to people who knew how to demand it.Tonight was no different.The ballroom of the Imperial Grand Hotel shimmered beneath crystal chandeliers. Classical music drifted through the air while waiters moved gracefully between guests carrying champagne and delicate appetizers.King Corporation had organized the evening as a private appreciation banquet for several major investors.Officially.Unofficially, everyone knew it was another opportunity for Vanessa to appear beside Adrian King.She stood before one of the enormous mirrors in the ladies' lounge, smoothing the emerald silk dress hugging her figure."You look perfect," her stylist said.Vanessa smiled."I know."She fastened a diamond bracelet around her wrist before checking her reflection one last

The elevator doors slid open onto the executive floor of NovaGene.Evelyn stepped out with quiet composure. Behind her, Claire hurried to keep pace, balancing a tablet against her chest while reading through the day's schedule."You have three meetings before noon," Claire said. "The legal department finalized the licensing contracts, the European investors arrived early, and Mr. Wolfe requested fifteen minutes before the board session."Evelyn nodded."Move the investors to one o'clock."Claire looked surprised."They've been waiting three months.""They can wait another hour.""Understood."As Claire walked away to make the calls, Evelyn stopped beside the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city.King Corporation's headquarters stood only a few blocks away.Glass.Steel.Power.From this height, it looked much smaller than she remembered.She wasn't smiling.She simply realized that perspective changed everything.Three weeks ago she had looked up at that building believing it

Grace Palmer had always believed that emotions were expensive.Love distracted people.Compassion weakened judgment.Regret was simply the price paid by those who made poor decisions.For more than thirty years, those beliefs had helped her build the King family's reputation alongside her late husband.They had turned King Corporation into one of the city's most respected business empires.At least, that was what she had always told herself.Now, standing alone in her penthouse office, she watched the company's stock continue to fall across the television screen.Every red number felt like another crack spreading through the foundation she had spent decades protecting.Her assistant entered quietly."Madam Palmer."Grace didn't turn."The board members have arrived.""Let them wait.""They're becoming anxious."Grace gave a bitter smile."They should be."The assistant hesitated."There is something else."Grace finally faced him."What?""NovaGene officially rejected the emergency fi

The name remained on Evelyn's screen long after the notification faded.ELIAS VOSS.She read it again.Nothing.No memory.No recognition.Yet the uneasiness in Damien's expression told her everything she needed to know."Who is he?" she asked quietly.Damien didn't answer immediately.Instead, he walked back toward the conference table and poured himself a glass of water.That alone made Evelyn more anxious.He was never a man who delayed answers.Not unless the truth carried consequences."He was supposed to disappear."Evelyn frowned."That's not an answer.""It will be."He finally looked at her."Have you ever wondered why NovaGene was created under a false identity?""I assumed it was because of my grandfather.""It wasn't.""Then why?""Because someone was hunting the founders."The room fell silent.Evelyn stared at him."Hunting?""Legally."He corrected himself after a brief pause."At first."She crossed her arms."I think it's time you stopped giving me half the story."Da

Evelyn didn't speak for nearly a minute after reading the leaked acquisition document.The room remained silent except for the faint hum of the city beyond the glass windows.Her eyes stayed fixed on Adrian's electronic signature.It was authentic.There was no mistake.She slowly placed the tablet back on Damien's desk."I thought the marriage failed because he stopped loving me."Damien watched her quietly."And now?"She smiled without humor."Now I don't know if he ever separated business from our marriage."Damien folded his hands."Don't jump to conclusions."She looked at him."Even if they're true?""Especially then."He stood and walked toward the window."Emotion makes people predictable.""And predictable people lose."Evelyn nodded slowly."I've spent seven years being predictable.""Not anymore."She took a slow breath."So what do we do?"Damien turned around."We let them make the next mistake."She frowned."That's all?""For today."She couldn't hide her surprise."Th
