Divorced At Dawn: The CEO Who Begged Too Late A Promise with Teeth
The heavy doors of the private meeting room swung shut behind Mr. Jones and Mr. Vale, and the sound of their footsteps faded down the corridor until there was nothing left but silence.Mr. Sterling remained seated, unmoved by their departure. He picked up his abandoned glass of whiskey and took a slow, unhurried sip, the ice clinking softly against the crystal. If the confrontation had rattled him at all, his face betrayed nothing. He simply set the glass down, reached into his breast pocket, and withdrew his phone.He pressed a single button and lifted it to his ear."They're gone," he said smoothly. "You can come in now."A moment later, a side door opened, and Adrian stepped into the room.He looked worse than the last time Sterling had seen him, thinner, the sharp edges of his face more pronounced, dark shadows beneath his eyes that no amount of expensive grooming could hide. His tailored suit hung slightly loose on his frame, a testament to the toll the past weeks had taken. Bu
Divorced At Dawn: The CEO Who Begged Too Late The True Face
The private meeting room was suffocatingly quiet.Three of the most powerful men in the city sat around a polished mahogany table, each nursing a glass of untouched whiskey, none of them willing to be the first to break the silence. The tension in the room was thick enough to cut with a knife.Mr. Jones sat rigidly at one end, his hands folded on the table, his expression carved from stone. Mr. Vale sat to his right, looking every bit like a man who hadn't slept, dark circles under his eyes, his shoulders hunched with guilt and exhaustion. And across from them, Mr. Sterling reclined in his chair with an air of infuriating calm, swirling the amber liquid in his glass as though he had all the time in the world.The seconds ticked by. Somewhere in the building, a clock chimed the hour.Finally, Mr. Jones broke the silence."We're going to have to talk at some point," he said, his voice low and even. "We can't sit here staring at each other all day. So let's talk."Mr. Vale exhaled hea

The front door closed with a decisive click, and the sound seemed to suck all the air out of the room.The entire family sat in stunned silence, watching the space where Mr. Jones had stood moments before. The engine of his car roared to life outside, growing fainter as it carried him down the driveway and out of sight, toward a confrontation none of them were invited to.Noah stood frozen near the door, his car keys dangling uselessly from his hand. His jaw was tight, his injured body rigid with the kind of frustration that came from being told to sit down while the world burned around you. He stared at the closed door as if he could will it open again, as if he could will himself to be out there, in the middle of it, where he belonged.But Mr. Jones's words echoed in his ears. This is an adult problem now. And it will be handled by the adults.Noah's hand curled into a fist at his side."I can't just sit here," he muttered, more to himself than anyone else.Then he turned on his he

Clara didn't say a word.She didn't have to. The look on her face said everything: her jaw clenched tight, her nostrils flaring, her thumb hovering over the screen as if touching it again might make the content explode."Clara," Mrs. Jones said sharply, rising from her seat. "What is it? Show me."Clara's hand trembled. She opened her mouth, closed it, and simply shook her head, as though the words themselves were too poisonous to release into the room.Colin didn't wait. He reached across the table and snatched the phone from her hand.His eyes scanned the screen. The color drained from his face, replaced by something dark and thunderous. Slowly, he lifted his head and turned toward Noah."You're getting married?"The question landed on the table like a thrown knife.Noah froze, his coffee cup halfway to his lips. "What? What are you talking about?""See for yourself." Colin's voice was dangerously low. He turned the phone around and held it up for the whole table to see.There it

Miranda smiled, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "I thought we were playing the rage-baiting game."Noah's mouth fell open in mock offense. "You were baiting me? You just sit there looking all innocent and you're deliberately trying to drive me crazy?"Miranda shrugged, entirely unrepentant. "What can I say?""You're too good at it, that's what," Noah grumbled, though the corner of his mouth twitched. "Unfair advantage.""So?" Miranda tilted her head. "Do you still want to talk Mr. Jones into letting you leave?""No," Noah admitted quickly. "Absolutely not. I have zero issue with staying. In fact, I'm thrilled. This is the best news I've heard all week.""Oh really?" Miranda's expression softened. "I'm happy to have you around, Noah. Really."Noah's grin returned full force. "So… can I come to your room often then? You know, since I'm staying and all. It only makes sense that…"Miranda shook her head firmly. "Not advisable."Noah's face fell. "Why not?""Because my father will have yo

Colin folded his arms. “You wanted to tell me something. What was it?”To Colin’s surprise, Noah didn’t answer immediately.Instead, he started smiling.The kind of smile that looked so foolishly happy it was almost offensive.Colin stared at him. “Why do you look like that?”Noah looked away for a second, then back at him, still grinning. “Because unlike you, I actually finished my conversation.”Colin’s eyes widened. “No.”Noah nodded once. “Yes.”“Don’t joke.”“I’m not joking.” Noah sat up straighter despite the pain it clearly caused him. “Miranda and I talked. About everything. And…” He let the suspense hang for a second just to annoy him. “We’re dating now.”Colin went completely still. Then: “You’re lying.”“I’m not.”“She agreed?”“She did.”“She agreed to be with you?” Colin asked again, unbelieving. Noah grabbed a pillow and threw it weakly at him. “Why are you making it sound impossible?”“Because she was supposed to keep rejecting you.”Noah looked deeply pleased with him
