Aria Adams Leaked 소설 & 이야기

“Sir… exposing internal family manipulation could destabilize the company.” Adrian looked toward the skyline. “Then it deserves to be destabilized.” His phone buzzed. Elena: Ready. Adrian replied without hesitation. Do it. --- Within minutes, encrypted files flooded regulatory agencies, financial watchdogs, and major media outlets. Headlines erupted: LEAKED FILES SUGGEST KINGSLEY BOARD MANIPULATION EVIDENCE OF CORPORATE SABOTAGE SURFACES FORMER HEIR’S MARRIAGE SCANDAL LINKED TO INTERNAL POWER STRUGGLE

And beneath that there were blurred company watermarks, partial documents, and insider testimonies all splashed across web pages and social media. The leak was vague, but far more detailed than the previous. And even though nothing had been fully proven yet, what had emerged was enough to cause a nationwide uproar. And indeed it was already doing that. Grandmother Hayes had been in the conservatory when Emmet came rushing in with the info. She had not needed more than three glances at the screen before her cup slipped and shattered on the tiled floor. Now, barely an hour later, she was pacing the drawing room, holding onto her own tablet one moment and pulling it forward in the next one, try

"It’s Sterling. He’s on the line with the Ethics Committee. They aren't waiting for the monthly vote. They’re moving the timeline up." My blood ran cold. "Put him through." There was a click, and then Sterling’s gravelly voice filled my ear. "Cole. We have a problem." "The only problem I have is that you’re interrupting my personal time, Sterling." "Cut the arrogance," Sterling snapped. "Leon Adams just sent over a draft of his press release. He’s going to Variety, The Wall Street Journal, and TMZ. He’s painting a very vivid picture, Cole. He claims you seduced his wife, broke up his marriage, and that you are currently harboring her as a mistress."

He studied the graphs of Clarisse’s dark transactions and the Vendrake network—transactions he had just deliberately leaked. “Let’s see how you survive this, Clarisse,” he whispered coldly. It didn’t take long for chaos to erupt. Clarisse received a flurry of reports from Vendrake’s men. “Our transactions have been leaked! Several big clients are backing out! Your adoptive father is furious!” Clarisse slammed the glass table until it cracked. “Who dared to play with fire behind my back?!” “All evidence points to Adrian, Miss,” one of her subordinates replied in a small voice.

“Do it.” The netizens went into a commotion half an hour later. They no longer regarded me as the maniac who had made a scene during a bidding conference. A more shocking headline had emerged. [The talented designer’s wife conspired with her lover to steal his work and empty their company.] Alex wrapped up all the evidence I had shown during the shareholders’ meeting. He edited it into pictures with long passages coupled with Linda's and Samuel’s identities. He spread it all over the Internet. Consequently, the public opinion changed drastically.

I looked away as I re-lived that night in my mind. “I went to warn her to stay away from you, Avery.” Adriano said. He reached out and tentatively took my hand. “But she spun it around for her secret camera to take a picture at the perfect time.” He snorted angrily. “The misleading picture was taken and “leaked” to the press the following morning. How convenient for the bitch.” He shook his head and looked at me again. “You think she leaked the picture?” I asked. “It was all a part of her plan, Avery,” Adriano said. “For someone so smart like you, why cant you see this?”

“I can handle pressure. What I can’t handle is not knowing if the man beside me is choosing me or choosing control.” Damian swallowed. “I’m choosing you.” “Then stop deciding for me,” she said. A sharp knock echoed through the room. Both of them froze. Adrian stepped inside moments later, face pale. “We have a problem.” Damian straightened. “Talk.” “Confidential files were leaked to the press,” Adrian said. “Not everything—but enough.” Elena’s chest tightened. “Marcus.” “Yes,” Adrian confirmed. “And he made sure your name stays out of it—for now.”
