Chapter Twenty-One"He's finished," Drake stated with finality. "And we need to leave before we get caught in the fallout."With that, he pulled Sarah more forcefully, and this time she didn’t resist. They walked away hastily from the hall, their footsteps echoing as they fled the scene.Behind them, Ethan stood over Caleb’s broken form, his expression still cold and unreadable. Around him, the banquet hall lay in ruins—overturned tables, shattered crystal, terrified guests huddled in corners or fleeing for the exits.But Ethan didn’t look worried.He didn’t look afraid.He simply stood there, waiting, as if he knew exactly what would happen next.And perhaps he did.---**Outside the Banquet Hall**Drake pulled Sarah through the ornate doors and into the cool night air, his grip on her arm so tight it made her wince. His eyes were wide, almost bulging with panic, and his whole body trembled like a leaf in a storm.What had just happened inside? His mind kept replaying the scene over

Chapter Twenty-TwoEthan stood over Caleb's broken form, his expression still cold and unreadable. Around him, the banquet hall lay in ruins—overturned tables, shattered crystal, terrified guests huddled in corners or fleeing for the exits.But Ethan didn't look worried. He didn't look afraid.He simply stood there, waiting, as if he knew exactly what would happen next.And perhaps he did.A gentle touch on his arm made him turn slightly. Victoria stepped into view from behind him, her hand resting lightly on his sleeve as she guided him to face her. Her eyebrows were creased with confusion and worry, her elegant features drawn into an uncharacteristic frown."What happened here, Ethan?" she asked, her voice measured but edged with concern. "What's going on?"She stepped back slightly, releasing her grip as she looked around the devastated hall. The place was nearly deserted by now, with only a few stubborn onlookers lingering in the shadows, determined to witness the fate of Ethan Co

Chapter Twenty-Three "So tell me, Ethan Cole. Are you still in love with Sarah Wilson?” Victoria Chen asked coldly, her voice devoid of its usual warmth.Her fist tightened on the desk, knuckles turning white.The question caught Ethan completely off guard. He looked at Victoria, his mouth opening and then closing without sound. Then his face transformed into a deep frown as he moved purposefully toward her desk."What are you implying?" he asked through gritted teeth, each word sharp and clipped.He was irritated—no, more than irritated—he was angry at that question. He knew his own feelings well. He'd examined them, dissected them, and come to clear conclusions. Why would he still be in love with the woman who had framed him for rape? Who had cheated on him openly? Who had dragged him through the mud repeatedly? Who had used him for years, insulted him at every opportunity, and treated him with nothing but contempt and hatred?Someone so thoroughly ungrateful didn't deserve his lov

Chapter Twenty-FourThe sleek black car rolled to a smooth stop in front of an exclusive penthouse tower that pierced the Boston skyline. The door opened, and Victoria Chen stepped out first, followed closely by Ethan Cole. Despite the chaos of the evening, they both looked glamorous and polished—though Ethan's shirt was rumpled and his appearance somewhat disheveled from the fight, he still carried himself with an undeniable presence that made him look like he belonged. Like he was the most important person stepping out of that vehicle.They crossed the marble lobby and entered the private elevator. Victoria tapped in a security code, and the elevator began its ascent to the top floor. The ride was silent, both of them lost in their own thoughts about the evening's events.Minutes later, the doors opened directly into Victoria's penthouse suite.Victoria stepped inside and sighed deeply, standing still for a moment as she breathed in the familiar scent of her home. Finally—she was ho

Chapter Twenty-FiveSarah Wilson stepped out of Drake's luxury sedan with deliberate flair, making sure her entrance was noticed by anyone passing by. She wore an expensive cream-colored Chanel suit dress with gold buttons running down the front—the kind of outfit that screamed new money trying too hard. The fabric was quality, but the way she wore it, paired with oversized designer sunglasses and a gaudy Hermès bag, exuded an arrogance that couldn't be mistaken for genuine confidence.She stood in front of B Corporation's towering headquarters, Drake lounging casually at her side. Wide smiles plastered both their faces."We're back here," Drake announced, puffing out his chest in pride. He wore designer sunglasses that probably cost more than most people's monthly rent, making him look exactly like the pompous, arrogant son of a wealthy family who'd never worked a real day in his life."Yes!" Sarah squealed, practically bouncing on her designer heels as they walked toward the glass e

Chapter Twenty-Six"Is this a dream? Am I dreaming?" Drake asked, his voice rising with each word. He looked genuinely shaken, as if he'd seen a ghost. "How are you still alive, Ethan? And more importantly—what are you doing here? At B Corporation?"His tone was a mixture of shock, confusion, and something that might have been fear.The shock in his voice was genuine, almost comical.Sarah walked forward slowly, her eyes raking over Ethan Cole from head to toe, taking in every detail. Ethan didn't look like someone who was suffering. He certainly didn't look like someone who had undergone beating and torture at the hands of the Stone family. Instead, he wore a casual designer top and well-fitted jeans—nothing flashy, but clearly quality pieces. He looked quite good, actually. Very different from the last time they'd seen him here, when he'd looked worn down, tattered, and low-life.His hair was neatly kept now, freshly cut and styled. His beard was perfectly trimmed, not the scraggly

Chapter Twenty-Seven"Please, have a seat," Victoria said graciously, gesturing toward the chairs across from her. "Let's begin our discussion about your new partnership with B Corporation."Sarah and Drake sat down eagerly, trying to appear sophisticated and worthy of being in this office.They thought they were about to have a simple partnership meeting.They had no idea they were walking directly into a trap.---In a monitoring room elsewhere in the building, Ethan Cole stood watching the entire meeting unfold on a large high-definition screen. He held a cup of premium coffee in one hand, that same cocky smile playing across his face as he observed Sarah and Drake settling into their chairs with barely contained excitement.He caught the moment Victoria subtly glanced at the camera before turning her full attention back to her guests. A silent acknowledgment between co-conspirators.Ethan’s gaze fixed on Sarah and Drake, a mischievous gleam dancing in his eyes. He would make absol

Chapter Twenty-Eight"Please, have a seat," Victoria Chen said graciously, gesturing toward the chairs across from her. "Let's begin our discussion about your new partnership with B Corporation."Sarah Wilson and Drake Hastings sat down eagerly, trying to appear sophisticated and worthy of being in this prestigious office.Victoria Chen settled into her chair across from them, several stacks of carefully organized papers arranged on the elegant glass table between them. She crossed her legs elegantly and studied her guests for a moment before speaking."I hope you didn't encounter any difficulties on your way up here," Victoria asked politely, her tone professional but warm."N—" Sarah Wilson was about to reply when Drake Hastings cut her off, responding quickly with barely contained enthusiasm."No, Ms. Chen! We didn't. The journey was perfectly smooth," he said, laughing and feeling immensely pleased with himself. His chest puffed out slightly with pride at being in Victoria Chen's

Chapter Twenty-NineEthan's serious expression melted into that familiar smirk as he stood in the monitoring room, watching the scene unfold on the screen before him.It was time to enter and cause a little disruption. Time to stir confusion and unease. Time to remind Sarah and Drake that nothing in their carefully constructed world was quite as stable as they believed it to be.He picked up two pristine white ceramic coffee mugs and filled them to the brim with freshly brewed premium blend—one for himself and one for Victoria. The rich aroma filled the air around him as he prepared. Then he straightened his shirt, running his hands down the fabric to smooth out any wrinkles, and checked his appearance briefly in the reflective surface of the monitor. Perfect.He headed for the door, his steps measured and confident.This was going to be thoroughly entertaining.---Down the hall in Victoria's spacious office, Sarah was mid-sentence, enthusiastically discussing her “vision” for how th
Chapter 30
Chapter ThirtyThey walked outside together, Sarah practically glowing with self-satisfaction, feeling accomplished about what she'd just sealed. She was officially Victoria Chen's partner now—B Corporation's new partner—and she'd just completed her first formal meeting with Victoria Chen herself. They'd signed documents, made everything official, and the partnership had formally commenced.Sarah grinned widely as they crossed the lobby toward the exit. In the span of just three years, she had risen remarkably fast up the social ladder. That was the main reason people throughout Boston's business community had been so shocked when she'd been chosen as B Corporation's new partner. She was rising new money with no extensive connections or established family history, no deep roots in Boston's elite circles—yet Victoria Chen had still gone ahead and chosen her specifically.It felt like validation. Like she'd finally arrived."Drake!" she called out enthusiastically as they stepped throug
