After the Breakup, the Billionaire Lost Control! Chapter 107
During Emma’s interview, the sales director quickly picked up on her connections. Everyone knew the CEO had personally arranged for her to join the team, treating her like a rare gem in the fast-paced corporate world. From day one, she was given a private office—a perk practically unheard of for a newcomer.Sitting at her desk, Emma touched up her makeup while faintly hearing her colleagues gossiping about her and Justin outside. A smug smile spread across her face.*“Stay here. You don’t need to follow me in,” Justin said outside his office.“Yes, Mr. Yates,” Sam replied dutifully.Justin walked into his office and immediately shed his suit jacket. He headed straight to the ensuite bathroom and began washing himself thoroughly. The lukewarm water cascaded over his body as he meticulously used the body wash Emily had once bought for him, as if trying to scrub away the events of the previous night.Once clean, he changed into a spare suit he kept in the office. Only then did he

“Justin, I carried you to your room last night. Don’t tell me you got up and went looking for Emma again? Did you two actually…?” Zac didn’t press for details, but the implication was clear. Justin rubbed his aching temples. He hadn’t slept well, plagued by nightmares of Emily discovering his night with Emma and vanishing from his life forever. “How do you know?” His voice was heavy with fatigue. “Dude, you two got photographed leaving the hotel together. The headlines are all about your scandal. Everyone knows you and Emma spent the night at the hotel!” Justin’s eyes immediately sharpened, all traces of exhaustion gone. He hung up and searched for the entertainment news. Sure enough, his name dominated the top headlines. The more he scrolled, the darker his expression grew. He glanced at the time. Hopefully, Emily was still asleep and hadn’t seen it yet. “Sam, come to my office,” he said in a low voice. Sam arrived quickly. “Yes, Mr. Yates. What can I do for you?”

Sam pulled his sleeve free from Zoe’s grip and said sternly, “No gossiping during work hours, or I’ll dock your pay.”“Come on, don’t do that! Making money isn’t easy!” Zoe whined, pouting playfully.*Emma entered Justin’s office, placing the documents on his desk. “Justin, these are from the sales director. He asked me to pass them to you.”“Okay.” Justin took the documents and set them aside without even glancing at them.Emma pulled up a chair and sat across from him, her tone soft with concern. “Justin, is something bothering you? You look upset. If you’re dealing with something tough at work, you can talk to me.”She added gently, “I may not know if I can help, but at least I can listen and ease your worries.”Her gentle, considerate demeanor and the fact that she was his lifesaver made her the perfect candidate for a wife—or so he had thought.Justin stared at her for a long moment. “It’s good that you’re here. I need to talk to you,” he said.“What is it? You can ju

When Emma heard Justin’s answer, her face turned pale. Forcing a bitter smile, she said, “As long as you’re happy, Justin, that’s all that matters to me. I don’t care about anything else.”She hesitated before adding, “But… can I still stay at RC Corporation and keep working here?”Justin nodded firmly. “As long as I’m here, this place will always be your home.”“Thank you, Justin,” she whispered before lowering her head and leaving his office as if fleeing.After Emma left, Justin instructed Sam to transfer a hundred million to her account. It was his way of compensating her for the night before and easing his guilt for hurting her.With everything finally out in the open, Justin felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He returned to his usual self, even catching himself smiling whenever thoughts of Emily crossed his mind. He also realized why he had always disliked Sean. *The secretarial team noticed the sudden improvement in Justin’s mood after Emma’s visit. Grateful, they

Justin thought to himself as he stepped into the house. Mrs. Zimmer was in the kitchen directing the staff in preparing dinner, while Emily was outside in the small garden, turning off the sprinkler she had been using to water the lawn. Once the watering was done, she headed to the bathroom to wash her hands before dinner. Finding she still had some time, she sat on the couch and started scrolling through her phone. A new email stood out in her inbox. Emily clicked it open and immediately frowned, her face twisting in disgust. The email contained explicit photos of Justin and Emma in bed. The images were vile and unbearable to look at. After just a glance, Emily deleted the email in disgust. “Disgusting!” she thought, her stomach churning. She didn’t need to guess who had sent it. Other than Emma, no one else would have known her email address, let alone sent something so malicious. The sound of the door unlocking interrupted her thoughts. Justin had returned ho

That checkup had been a long time ago. Emily knew Justin wouldn’t want this child. Rather than let him arrange for her to be forced into a termination, she would handle it on her own. She hated being controlled or coerced. “Let’s eat first,” Justin said as he pulled out a chair for her before sitting down beside her. Emily was surprised. In the past, whenever Emma’s name came up, it would inevitably lead to an argument. But today, he seemed oddly calm. She didn’t dwell on it. Perhaps because she had just thrown up, her appetite wasn’t great, and she only picked at her food. *After dinner, Justin stood and casually said, “Move to the master bedroom tonight,” before heading to his study. Emily frowned. “I’m not feeling well tonight. I can’t deal with you right now. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.” Justin paused on the stairs, recalling the dream where she left him and disappeared from his life. The fear crept back, and his tone turned cold and commanding. “That’s an

At the RC Corporation, Emily followed Justin confidently into the exclusive CEO elevator, heading straight to the top floor. “Good morning, Mr. Yates!” “Good morning, sir!” Justin nodded in acknowledgment, his expression stoic, as he walked into his office. Naturally, Emily followed behind him. As soon as the door to the CEO’s office closed, the secretarial team started whispering among themselves. “Was that Emma walking in behind the CEO? She looked a little different, didn’t she?” “Yeah, I thought so too. Something was off.” By mid-morning, the rumor of the CEO bringing in a woman who resembled Emma had spread like wildfire throughout the company. Some said it was Emma, others said it wasn’t. When Emma heard about it, she blinked in surprise. “Justin brought Emily to the office?” she wondered.“Emily, you’re more cunning than I thought. Fine, let’s see whose tricks are better,” she thought to herself. *Justin quickly became swamped with meetings, leav

When Justin arrived, the atmosphere froze. After a brief silence, Emily responded indifferently, “We weren’t talking about anything important.” “Not something she wants me to know?” Justin wondered. “What could she discuss with Sam but not with me?”His gaze shifted to Sam, who awkwardly rubbed his nose before, for the first time, lying to the CEO. “Miss Yates and I were just talking about the drinks in the break room. She said they were really good.” “Really?” Justin’s lips curled into a faint smile, though his tone carried a trace of jealousy. “Perfect timing. I have a dinner event tonight. I’ll bring you along, and you can enjoy more drinks. Drink as much as you like.” Emily was speechless. *That afternoon, Emma knocked on the door of Justin’s office. “Come in,” Justin said. Emma entered, her gaze quickly scanning the room. Not seeing Emily, she swiftly hid her curiosity and walked over to Justin’s desk, handing him a file. “Justin, I’ve been learning a lo

“Being the boss sure comes with a lot of responsibilities and stress,” Mrs. Zimmer said with a warm smile.Since Justin hadn’t come back yet, Emily decided to pass the time by turning on the TV. She connected her phone to the screen and started streaming a drama. Sitting on the couch with Mrs. Zimmer, they shared some fruit while waiting.Seven turned into eight, then eight-thirty. By the time it was almost nine, Justin still hadn’t shown up.Mrs. Zimmer yawned repeatedly and stretched her legs, shaking off the numbness from sitting too long. “Do you think he’s caught up in a last-minute meeting and can’t make it back? He’s done that before.”Justin occasionally had meetings that ran late, but he usually arranged for Sam to call ahead and let them know. He would never leave them waiting like this without a word.Emily pulled out her phone. “Let me call him and check.”The dial tone rang endlessly, but no one picked up. Frowning, she walked to the window, looking out at the glowin

If Emily found out about this, what would happen? Justin couldn’t bear to imagine it. A sudden wave of fear washed over him at the thought of her learning the truth. That night, Justin had been drunk at the gala. He had no memory of how he ended up in the room or how anything happened with Emma. The only thing he remembered was waking up the next morning to find Emma lying naked beside him, the sheets messy and stained with blood. “Justin, it’s not your fault, it’s mine,” Emma had said tearfully the next day, her beautiful eyes glistening with unshed tears. “I took the morning-after pill, but if I had taken it a bit earlier, maybe none of this would have happened.” She wiped her tears as they began to fall, her voice trembling as she blamed herself. Her tone softened, becoming almost pitiful. “I know you’re with Emily now. I don’t want to be the reason she misunderstands you or comes between you two. I’ll…I’ll terminate this pregnancy…” Emma was in tears, sobbing so hard

Not long after Emily replied to Mrs. Zimmer’s message, her phone buzzed again. This time it was Helen.“Hey, remember that little takeout place near my college? They’ve expanded and turned it into a full-fledged restaurant. It’s their grand opening today. After my afternoon classes, I’m grabbing double portions of their signature spicy fish and bringing it over for dinner!” Helen followed up with another message, “I’ll also get your favorite fried snacks and beer, extra spicy with sweet dipping sauce.” They both had similar tastes, especially when it came to bold, flavorful comfort food. Most people wouldn’t think twice about it, but Justin’s refined palate had no appreciation for such “casual” food. He also didn’t let Emily eat it. So whenever Justin was tied up with work or traveling, Emily and Helen would sneak off to enjoy their guilty pleasures. Over time, the two had tried nearly every takeout joint and food truck in Lincourt City. Still, nothing quite compared to

Emily looked puzzled. “You’re great too.”Unintentionally, she handed Justin a *nice guy* card. Receiving the *nice guy* card left Justin feeling frustrated. He tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, his mind obsessing over her words. The next morning, Emily slept in until 8 a.m. When she woke, Justin was nowhere to be found. He must have gone to work. After washing up, she sat down to have breakfast. *In the special project meeting room, Emma sat discussing key points of the project’s development. Suddenly, a foul odor filled the room, making her feel nauseous. At first, she managed to suppress it, but soon, she couldn’t hold back and gagged audibly. The sound was jarring in the otherwise serious atmosphere. “Mr. Quinn, I need to step out to the restroom,” Emma said, quickly leaving the meeting room. Once she was gone, the team members didn’t hold back their complaints. “How are we supposed to get this project done when she’s like this all the time? It’s

It must have been Justin who orchestrated all this. Only he had the power and motivation in Lincourt City to swiftly bring Jack down. The official announcement of Jack’s termination from RC Corporation was delivered to all employees via email as a warning. Emma scrolled through her mouse, her expression darkening. She hadn’t expected Justin to go this far for Emily. “But what about me?” she thought bitterly. “What did I mean to him three years ago?”The office buzzed with chatter about Jack’s sudden dismissal. First, Jack’s secretary, Tina, was let go, and now Jack. Employees speculated wildly, suggesting it was part of internal power struggles among the upper management. Unbeknownst to them, Justin had already locked down the news of Jack’s involvement in Emily’s kidnapping. As Emma walked through the open office area, she heard fragments of gossip. As someone who knew the truth, their baseless assumptions irritated her. Wearing a sharp business suit and high hee

In the CEO’s office of RC Corporation, William stood respectfully in front of Justin, delivering his report. “Those men are a group of street thugs. They’re unemployed and survive by scamming people and committing petty crimes. After leaving the hospital last night, they used a public payphone to contact someone.“Tracing the number, we found the other party used a disposable phone card. When we looked into the bank account records tied to the payment, we discovered the funds were transferred internationally and then wiped from the records. Even after recovering the data, the identity linked to the account belonged to a local overseas resident.”The office was dimly lit, with Justin sitting behind his desk. He tapped his fingers lightly on the surface. “So, they’re experienced and left no trace behind,” he said in a low voice. William nodded silently. After a brief pause, Justin instructed, “Start by investigating the people around me.”Emily was an orphan with no known ene

“Come and go as you please? Do you think this is a playground?” Justin’s calm voice carried an unmistakable authority. The three men froze, their bodies stiffening as fear took over, their legs stopping in place on instinct. “W-what do you want?” one of them stammered, his voice trembling. Justin’s commanding presence was overwhelming, making their hearts pound with terror. They braced themselves, convinced Justin would order the bodyguards to deal with them. Their imaginations ran wild, and they were so scared they were nearly shaking. But to their shock, Justin simply let them go. *On a narrow side road outside the hospital, the three men huddled together, their faces filled with frustration. “What now, boss? The plan didn’t work. We couldn’t take the woman, and now we won’t get paid,” one of them muttered bitterly. “Damn it!” the leader of the group sighed heavily. They had been hired to pose as Emily’s biological father and abduct her. The plan was to a

Thinking about the promises they had been given, the men had no choice but to sit and wait.Justin had just finished a team meeting about the collaboration project with Wilfred and was on his way back to his office. As he walked, he felt his phone vibrate—a message from Zac. Glancing at it briefly, his brows furrowed instinctively. Sliding the phone back into his pocket, he handed the file in his hand to Sam.“I need to step out for a while. Reschedule the afternoon team meeting to an online session tonight.”“Understood, Mr. Yates,” Sam responded efficiently.Just then, Emma hurried after Justin with a file in her hands. “Justin, I have a question about something. I need your guidance.”Justin stopped briefly but didn’t take the file from her. Instead, his gaze shifted to Sam. “I’m heading out. If you have any questions, Sam can handle them.”With that, he strode toward the elevator, his pace quickening.“Oh…” Emma watched him disappear down the hallway, her gaze reluctant an

Biological father? Emily had lived as an orphan for the past three years, and she had never heard anything about her biological parents looking for her. Where did this ‘biological father’ suddenly come from? *“What’s all the noise about? Can’t I get a nap around here?” Richard, a night owl who often stayed up late and caught up on sleep during the day, groggily emerged from his room, running a hand through his disheveled hair, irritation clear on his face. One of the men spotted him and immediately said, “Young man, you’re just in time! Help me out here. The patient in this room is my daughter. I want to take her home, but these two thugs won’t let me. Where’s the justice in that?”He glared angrily at the black-suited bodyguards. “What you’re doing is illegal! If you don’t let me take my daughter, I’ll call the cops!”Richard, already grumpy from being woken up, scoffed. “Just because you say she's your daughter doesn't make it true. Stop making up nonsense and get los
