After Divorce, I Became A Multi-Billionaire Ch 0172
Amid the buzzing city in the evening, a piece of jaw-breaking news which took the city in ripples and caused an uproar suddenly stormed from nowhere, with a damning narrative that was so sudden and shocking, taking a swift turn in the most condemning headlines that the media had been weaponizing for weeks. It began with the breaking news at 7:00 PM at the top billboard spot and the media house news channel, as the main anchor’s voice, calm, and collected, captured the attention of everyone. “In a shocking twist this evening, newly uncovered footage from the most memorable birthday party of Irina Meyer has surfaced, revealing key evidence that casts significant doubt on the attempted murder accusations concerning the billionaire heiress of ANCLAIR conglomerate, clearing her of all charges…….”Instantly, tweets and hashtags went online as people began to share the news as fast as they could, and it began to spread like wildfire, the same way the accusatory news that almost destroyed Z

Malcolm sat at the study desk in his room, with his eyes fixed on the screen of the tablet that laid before him, while watching the evening news of the day with a deep sense of simmering satisfaction, and for a moment, he felt an overwhelming sense of vindication. He hadn't realized how badly Zoe's name had been dragged through the mud for too long until he returned to the country, and he was glad that he was able to do something about it, even if it had been too late. Leaning back in his leather chair, his eyes narrowed meaningfully, he contemplated his next move, as his left thumb hovered over the phone in his left hand, with a sense of restlessness filling his entirety.He hadn't spoken to her in weeks ever since she had warned him to stay out of her life, and he had tried so hard to be obedient to her. He had restrained the incite to call her all those while. But, more than ever, Malcolm felt the suffocating and unbearable urge to see her or hear her voice again as he stared at

Irina stood in the center of her large, luxurious bedroom which had just been turned upside down after it was just scanned minutes ago, as her heart pounded erratically against her ribcage, her eyes fixated on the dreadful horror she was staring at. Her breaths came in sharp, shallow gasps as she stared in disbelief and shock, at the small, insidious devices that had been hidden in every corner of her room without suspicion, all scattered across the floor- the dread that she had been sharing her private space with, longer than she could ever figure out. From underneath her bed frame, the floorboards, her nightstand, and the corner and shelves of her dressing room that had been scanned thoroughly, were where the black beeping devices were discovered. Wiretaps in her room. Everywhere. Just days ago, Irina had unintentionally discovered the spy and tracking app that had been unknowingly installed on her phone when it suddenly fell in pieces, and had to be taken to a phone engineer

“You can wait here,” Zoe instructed Dylan, who had accompanied her to the front of the door that led to her office in the company, as she pushed open the heavy glass doors that led to Zara's office, and she sauntered in after hesitating for a moment. Her eyes meandered across the familiar expansive space of the secretary's office, as she switched the lights on, and then proceeded to enter her own office. Turning on the light to hers, she slowly made her way toward where her large, polished desk was centered, her glass-encrusted nameplate catching her eyes. With a tired sigh escaping her, she ran her fingers over the surface of the nameplate and read the letters that had been encrusted on it under her breath, the coolness of it sending a shiver through her as if she was saying goodbye to more than just the office. Her eyes lingered on the small corner near the panoramic windows where she had strategically placed the last spy camera from weeks ago, and walked over to quickly pluck

Zoe stood in the dimly lit hallway of her luxurious suit, and her eyes were fixed on Dylan, who was standing before her, her voice laced with urgency, “Were you able to get the document of authentication?”Dylan nodded, having confirmed it a few minutes ago just right after they both returned from her office, “It is going as planned, ma'am. The lawyer said the papers will be finalized and confirmed by tomorrow. By then, you will have full authority over her assets and her son’s welfare,” he explained. Zoe nodded in satisfaction even if her heart was racing with some underlying hint of dread, feeling the need to take another step since every charge against her had been dissolved, and there was a new search for the person who had tried to murder Audrey. The first step was to make sure that the Meyers would not be able to take control over Aaron and Audrey anymore through legal means. “Good,” she finally said, while trying not to think too much because of the sudden state of anxiety t

The heavy grand doors of the Meyers mansion swung open with a sharp creak as two security men matched in, with grim faces, walking tall and formidable behind Malcolm. “Get Ivy down here!” He ordered in a very cold and authoritative manner, and it caused the maids who were at his call to shudder in fear as they went to get her from her room instantly. Unaware of what the sudden hubbub of her brother wanting to see her was, Ivy, who had gotten home less than five minutes ago, made her way down the grand stairs that led to her room lazily. For the past few weeks, all she had done was go to clubs to dance and drink with her friends, while spending money lavishly as she pleased. She had been unable to get rid of the anger and pain that her head had been drowning, knowing that she lost her ex to Audrey. It bruised her ego non-stop anytime she thought of it. And since she had been unable to talk to anyone about it, she decided to keep it to herself, considering how messy the family ha

After she was dragged away from the mansion by the security guards into the car they came with, Ivy was taken to a small vacation house that they drove to that night, which was miles away from the mansion after making sure they were not being trailed. The room they made her sit in after they arrived was suffocating as well as trepidatory, and all she could do was bury her eyes on the floor while sitting so stiffly, her heart thumping fast as the men that brought her in, left her with Malcolm. She cowered in fear as she refused to meet the eyes of her brother, who stood miles away from her, his gaze hard and unyielding, with his arms crossed against his chest as if barricading himself against any slightest feeling of compassion for her. For some reason, Ivy had no idea why he had chosen not to believe her when she said that Isla was involved too, which had frustrated her more than ever and made fear sink into her stomach because it looked like no one was coming to save her. Not

Zoe stood in front of the dresser in the master bedroom of the private suite she was staying in, her eyes staring conceitedly at her reflection in the reflective glass before her, and her heart swirling with the weight of the big decision she was finally making that night. She had spoken with Marcel two days before, and he had given her a sad reply that his father was unwilling to release his private jet to him because they were still not on good terms, even if he had no idea what she wanted to use it for. However, she told him not to worry anymore because she would still be able to use that of ANCLAIR’s conglomerate in the meantime, till her grandfather would probably decide to finally cut her off from the benefits as the CEO if he found out what she was planning. She finally told him why she had requested that of him. Earlier in the morning, she asked that Aaron be discreetly transported to Zara's house, and asked that the dutiful secretary take care of him till evening, kno

“How did it feel to see her?” Malcolm, whose eyes were already shutting in weariness brightened at the mention of Zoe, saying she met her mother. “To be honest, I was so glad. I was exhilarated because it felt so surreal to know I still have a family,” a small smile graced her lips as she spoke of it, “She doesn't know yet, but I like seeing her every time. She is a gorgeous woman. Full of dreams, and beautiful. Fun fact, we have similar eyes,” she was so excited to talk about Jasmine to someone. Turning to look at her, Malcolm stared into her eyes with a smile, “Really?”“Yes. She is stunning,” her lips widened in a deeper grin. His heart, suddenly hurting at the thought of his mother again, Malcolm was curious, “You don't resent all the times you spent away from her? Or her?”“If I say I don't, I lie,” a soft sigh escaped Zoe, as she looked up at the beautiful chandelier that was sitting up on the ceiling of the living room, while staring at it dreamily like a new kind of attra

Ding dong! The shrill chime of the doorbell outside the door instantly cut through Jasmine's thoughts and her back to the present from her room. For a moment, she couldn’t move. Her body remained frozen as if her brain had paused, and her heart, hammered. It was when her phone which was by her side sounded with a loud notification, that she fully kicked out of the reset mode her mind had gone into. She grabbed the phone so languidly as if something was sucking life out of her. A message notification from Justine flashed through her face when she swiped the screen up, and it read, ‘I’m outside. Please come get me.’ Turning on the lights in the room, Jasmine rose to her feet and hurried out of her room with light steps, careful not to wake Raine up. When she opened the front door of the house, a silent gasp escaped her as soon as she saw her. Justine was looking like life had chewed her up and spit her out. Her eyes were red with weariness and swollen with tears, and her sho

The bedroom showed no sign of life because the lights there were off, but someone was sitting by the window side, staring out into her uninteresting compound, while lost in thoughts. She sat at the edge of her armchair with her arms crossed over her chest, her eyes fixed on nothing in particular. The air around her felt so thick with tension, and it felt too heavy to pull into her lungs, because it was constricted with pain. It had been almost two hours since Zoe left, but Jasmine’s heart had not known rest because of what she said. The most shocking part of her life was all exposed in just one evening, and she was still trying so hard to process it. Her truths were wrapped in so much pain.She had been trying to keep up with the chaos inside her head, but it was as if Zoe's pain now lived in her lungs.‘She was married?’ Jasmine could not get her mind off that part, because that piece of information was not included in her public biography. There was no news about it. ‘If she was

Zoe adjusted the face cap she was wearing and bent her head, her eyes boring deep into the floor as she entered into the elevator with Malcolm. It was when they entered and the doors shut, that she thought to herself that it would have been better if he had gone up first. ‘What could be worse than the tip-off of where she was staying the night? Meeting up with Malcolm Meyer in his private penthouse? It would look too good on paper. The speculations would be terrifying and suffocating!’“You can remove the cap now,” Malcolm told her as soon as they reached the penthouse of the forty-five floored building, and stepped out of the elevator. “Okay,” she muttered, even if she didn't pull it off immediately. She was still a little bothered that someone might see them. The penthouse was quiet when Zoe stepped in after Malcolm opened the door, and it was the kind of stifling silence that made her heartbeat echo in her own ears. And maybe somehow, because she had seen what his house looked

“Those two must have been planning it since! They must have!” Irina’s flare cut through his thoughts, as she gritted her teeth hard, “I have never even thought of her ever coming back. Mill assured her everything was over, and that she would never have reasons to return anymore!” Her heart continued to beat fast, as a raging headache began to rise within her head. She had been having that for days now, and it had just worsened. “This was his silent comeback?” A bitter scowl escaped her, as she sucked in a shaky breath of fury before taking her seat as she shut her eyes tight because of the terrible headache. “No wonder that bastard wasn't saying anything and just watched us run things behind him. He was planning to bring his mother back to the company,” Irina groaned. “Then we should tell the board. This might change their minds,” Andre blurted out without even thinking. “You stupid fool!” Irina cursed under her trembling breath, “What has that got to do with the shareholders?

Back at the Meyers mansion, the moment of peace shattered the moment the front doors burst open, and Irina stormed into the mansion like a hurricane still pompously dressed in her extravagant ball dress.Her hair was still perfectly curled, but her face, which was shining so beautifully, was scrunched up in anger that made the maids scatter as soon as they saw her coming. They hadn't expected to see her so early and had rejoiced endlessly since the plan was to be gone for five days on a nice trip. It made them so disappointed.“Where is my son?!” she barked, tossing her coat and purse aside as she turned to the terrified ones that remained. One of the maids that worked directly with her hurried forward, as she looked to the floor instantly, “Ma’am, Master Andre is in the….”Irina didn’t wait to hear the rest as she stormed past the lady, only for her heels to hit the huge vase along where she passed, causing her to stumble. However, she was fast enough to catch herself against a gil

Driving away from Jasmine’s beautiful and peaceful neighborhood, Zoe struggled to breathe behind the steering wheel of her car. Her entire body was trembling and she was so tensed up, because of the heated encounter she had with her minutes ago, and she had not yet regained herself even after the short discussion she had with Raine. She didn't even understand why she had ranted uncontrollably and talked about her entire life in just a few minutes. She had screamed about her past, pain, and everything she had buried under fine clothing, and business smiles to no one else but her mother. Of course, in the most bitter way ever. ‘Goodness!’ Zoe screamed in her head, mortified that even if she wanted her to see the good side of her, she had failed. Her hands struggled to steady behind the steering wheel as she drove and gripped it so tightly as if it would help her calm herself down, her breath coming in shallow draws. She was confused. ‘Should she call Jasmine back and apologize for

A bitter smile curved Zoe’s lips, “I am sorry I have made you uncomfortable all this while. To be honest, I just really want somewhere to feel at home,” she shrugged slightly as if it was nothing, even if she was crumbling within her. “Growing up with my granny, I had a very rough life. Was bullied endlessly because I had no Mum, and was dirt poor. I worked my ass trying to get an education, but it didn't pay off because I had too many debts. Then an old man my granny knew agreed to take away my debt if I got married, so I did, hoping to escape my lowly, but it was way worse. I suffered a lot,” Zoe began to recount everything that she had been wanting to let out, at least to the very woman she desperately wanted to tell the truth to. She wanted her to know that even if Emily had been her biological Mum, she had a trashy life in the past either way. She had never truly had a family. “You.. you've been married?” Jasmine's incoherent words stumbled out of her trembling lips, as she st

“What do you mean?” Jasmine, who had been pretending not to listen to their conversation almost asked, her eyes widening in shock at what Zoe had just revealed.But Raine took the words right out of her lips before she could say it. “What? Really?” Her eyes sparked up in curiosity.Zoe shrugged lightly, as if trying to make the conversation as natural as possible, “She told me she is not my Mum.”“How?” Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, “You were adopted?!” Her voice rose in speculation. “No,” Zoe laughed.More confusion crossed Raine's features, making her more puzzled than the last, “Then how? She picked you up?” “Maybe because she has lost her mind or something. She rambles on these days. That was when she told me,” she mumbled. “Lost her mind?” Raine's voice lowered in pity. “Yeah. She did pretty bad things, and I guess maybe that is her reward. She doesn't even recognize me,” Zoe laughed like it was some bad joke. Genuinely, Raine's eyes lowered in worry, as she questione
