After the Breakup, the Billionaire Lost Control! Chapter 111
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

“I didn’t mean to see anything. I was just passing by. Please step aside,” Emily said coldly. Jack chuckled slyly. “What’s the big deal? Come join us. I won’t tell Mr. Yates.” The secretary, apparently accustomed to situations like this, stepped aside to make room for Emily. Emily’s gaze hardened. “Mr. Griffin, since you know who I am, you should also know that I’m not someone you can mess with.” She glanced around, realizing her exit was blocked. With no other options, she brought up Justin.Jack let out a cold laugh. “The only person I wouldn’t dare touch is Emma. But you? Who do you think you are? From what I’ve heard, women in your position only care about money. Whatever Justin’s paying you, I’ll double it.”He smirked and thought smugly, “As long as I get her in bed, who cares about paying her? I could just record a compromising video and use it to keep her in line. Women are all the same in bed anyway. But since she’s someone Justin has been with, I’m curious to see w
After the Breakup, the Billionaire Lost Control! Chapter 116
Justin noticed Emily had been gone for a while and instinctively reached for his phone to call her. The first unread message was from her, “I went home.” She didn’t wait for him. Why didn’t she wait for him? His mood instantly darkened, and the lively atmosphere at the table quickly cooled. Sensing the shift, the others wisely wrapped up the gathering and ended the dinner early. When Justin arrived home, the house was dark. Not a single light had been left on for him. “She’s avoiding me now?” he thought bitterly. But what could he do? He had already realized he couldn’t live without her. Justin turned on a warm light and stood by the bed, staring at Emily’s sleeping face for a long time before leaning down to plant a kiss on her forehead. Afterward, he headed to the closet for his pajamas and went to take a shower. The scent of alcohol and smoke washed away, replaced by the fragrance of the body wash Emily had bought. Feeling refreshed, he slipped into bed and pu

Jack couldn’t get Emily out of his head. Even during meetings at work, her figure kept intruding into his thoughts. After the meeting ended, instead of returning to his office, he wandered around the building, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. He didn’t find Emily but instead ran into Emma. His gaze swept over Emma from head to toe, comparing her to Emily in his mind. He shook his head subtly. “Not as striking as Emily,” he silently remarked. Still, his greasy fingers stroked his chin as he thought to himself, “She may not be as enticing, but she could still scratch the itch.”With a sly smirk, Jack adjusted his suit and approached Emma. His eyes lingered on her inappropriately as he spoke. “Miss Xander, I hear you landed the Wilfred project. Quite impressive. Looks like I’ll have to start calling you Director Xander soon.” Emma responded politely, “You’re too kind, Mr. Griffin. I’m just here to learn from the experience.” “If you ever need guidance, feel free to come

After finishing her meal, Emily felt thirsty. She searched the lounge and office for water but couldn’t find any, so she headed to the break room to grab a bottle of mineral water. On her way back after taking a couple of sips, she overheard a conversation. Someone was gossiping about her and Jack. Judging by the voice, it sounded like the secretary who had been with Jack the previous evening. “Don’t be fooled into thinking that the woman the CEO’s been bringing around is some saint. Last night at the dinner, she and Mr. Griffin were all over each other. She’s practically cheating on the CEO behind his back,” the secretary, Tina York said with a snide tone. “Seriously? With someone like Mr. Griffin? Isn’t the CEO way more attractive?” another voice replied. Tina continued with dramatic flair, “What’s so strange about that? I mean—” Her sentence cut off abruptly as she turned a corner and nearly ran into Emily, who was walking out of the break room. Caught red-handed goss

The bank card was still in Emma’s possession, but there were no traces of that unknown woman’s daily activities. Chances were, she had already died a long time ago. And yet, her bank account remained active, and no death certificate had been filed. It seemed she had been taken by the same organization—except Emma had somehow managed to escape alive. Richard didn’t bother digging deeper into which organization was behind it. His only concern was finding out who had hurt his sister and wanted her dead.Haley’s eyes were cold as she flipped through the report page by page. The evidence was solid. Helen saw her sister’s dark expression and assumed something big had happened again. She hesitated before asking, “Sis, what’s wrong?” “They found the person who hired a hitman to kill me.” “Who?” “Emma.” Helen’s eyes widened. The answer was both expected and unexpected at the same time. She had always felt that this was something Emma was capable of, but she was still cu

“My foot hurts!” Haley groaned, feeling utterly miserable. Not only had she managed to sprain her ankle while running, but her elbow and tailbone hurt like hell too! She looked down at her ankle—sure enough, a nasty swelling was already forming. After another round of fussing and medical checks, the X-ray results finally came back. No broken bones—just a sprained ligament. “Soft tissue injuries take a few months to heal. Sis, just stay in the hospital and recover properly. We’ll take good care of you!” Zac said, pushing up his glasses with a serious expression. But despite his serious tone, there was an unmistakable hint of relief in it. At least now, he didn’t have to come up with an excuse to help Justin keep Haley from being discharged. A sprained ankle? The perfect reason to keep her in the hospital. Lying in bed, Haley stared mournfully at her foot, propped up on pillows. All she had wanted was to leave the hospital. Why was everything working against

Through the gap between the bodyguard’s arm, Haley cast a cold glance forward.The man who had stopped her hesitated.Mr. Yates indeed hadn’t given orders to prevent Miss Haley from leaving the room—only to guard her.He immediately apologized, “I misspoke. Mr. Yates didn’t say you couldn’t leave your room. But you’re not allowed to leave the hospital. Even if you go downstairs for a walk, we must accompany you.“Please cooperate, Miss Haley. Don’t make our job difficult.” It sounded like a concession, but the firm stance left no room for rejection.She raised an eyebrow, taking it as an agreement. “Fine.” She had barely walked a few steps before she was completely surrounded—bodyguards in black suits flanking her from the front and behind. To anyone passing by, it must have looked like a mafia boss heading out for a gang fight.Nurses and doctors in the hallway kept glancing over, visibly curious about the high-profile scene.Many wealthy patients came here for treatment,

The moment one call ended, another came in. This time, it was William. “Mr. Yates, I’ve sent you the surveillance footage from the hospital’s underground parking lot and the street cameras. Madam Heidi took the elevator down and drove straight toward the riverside in the suburbs. However, there are no surveillance cameras in that area. The road cameras only captured her car turning into that direction.“The timeline doesn’t add up. There’s nearly an hour unaccounted for between when she left the parking garage and when she arrived near the river. There’s a stretch of road where the cameras lost track of her. It’s possible she made a stop elsewhere during that time.“Or,” William continued, “there’s a strong possibility something happened to her in that window—someone else could’ve driven her car to the river afterward.” His tone was analytical and steady as he laid out the findings. “Go over that unmonitored area carefully. Leave no stone unturned,” Justin ordered coldly.

The screen reverted to the four-person relationship chart, but now, Heidi’s photo at the top was grayed out. Chase glanced at the faded image of Heidi, then turned to Alex, who was still obsessing over his pajamas. “Do you want to call Uncle Justin? His mommy passed away. He’s probably really sad right now.” Oh, right! Alex immediately dropped the pajamas he had been holding. He had been so excited about Mommy coming home that he completely forgot Uncle Justin’s mom had passed away. He quickly ran over to his brother, took off his smartwatch, and placed it on the desk. This way, they could both listen in on the call together. Justin had just stepped out of Zac’s office and was making his way back to the hospital room when Alex’s call came through. It had been a while since they last saw each other—probably because the adults in Alex’s home had been keeping a closer watch on him.“Alex.” “Uncle Justin, I saw the news online. I heard your mommy passed away. You must

His mom was bringing it up again.At just five years old, Chase was already learning what it was like to have a nagging mother.Thankfully, before he had to endure much of it, Alex came bursting through the door, racing toward the screen like a tiny whirlwind. Alex was his savior, pulling him out of his mom’s relentless nagging. “Mommy! I missed you so much!” Compared to Chase’s calm, composed demeanor, Alex was the complete opposite—full of childish energy, exactly like a five-year-old should be. “My sweet boy, Mommy missed you too,” Haley responded with a smile. “Did you miss me so much that you couldn’t sleep?” “Of course.” “That’s great! Because I missed you so much I couldn’t sleep either. How about Chase and I come visit you? We can stay over and sleep with you at the hospital.” Alex remembered the hospital bed was huge. If Mommy slept in the middle while he and Chase took either side, they would all fit just fine! Haley chuckled. “I’ll probably be dis

Justin sat across from Zac in silence, his gaze lowered as he mulled over something. Zac, noticing his lack of response, repeated himself. Only then did Justin lift his eyes to meet his. His voice was slow, measured. “She hasn’t fully recovered. She can’t be discharged.”With a single sentence, he had made the decision for Haley. Just like before. Once again, he was keeping her by his side—not in a villa this time, but in a hospital. And in the end, what difference did it make? The same overbearing possessiveness. The same suffocating control. To love someone was to give them everything he had. But if she refused to love him, then he would take away her freedom instead, binding her to him. A chain with no key. One end locked around him, the other around her. They would be forever entwined. Neither able to leave the other. And freedom? As long as she was within his reach, that was the only freedom he would allow.Zac understood exactly what Justin meant,

“Justin, have you seen the news online?” Emma’s voice carried a tone of worry, but beneath it lay a carefully calculated move. She had debated for a long time. Waiting anxiously for his reaction was pointless. It was better to take the initiative. Feigning shock and ignorance, she played her role seamlessly. Whether Justin had seen the post or not, whether he suspected her or not, she had to remain composed. If she lost control now, it would only raise suspicion. Even if Justin did doubt her, once he investigated and found that the post had nothing to do with her, it would help clear her of suspicion. “What post? I’m busy. I don’t have time for the internet.” Justin’s voice was distant, devoid of warmth, as if he were speaking to a subordinate. It was nothing like the indulgent tone he had once reserved for her five years ago. His gaze, however, never left Haley. He watched her intently, studying every shift in her expression, worried that she might misunderstand his

”Yes, yes, boss.” After issuing his warning, the man hung up again, cursing under his breath. Frustration surged through him, and he kicked the nearby sofa with full force. *That afternoon, Justin finally returned. The first thing he did was try to take Haley’s phone. But before he could grab it, she turned away, dodging him effortlessly. “What are you doing?” She looked at him warily. The doctor had already said she could use her phone, so what had gotten into him now? “Don't look at it,” he said, his voice carrying a rare trace of hesitation. Justin was scared. He didn’t want her to see the rumors online, the ones accusing Heidi of orchestrating her car accident. He was afraid she would see his mother differently, that she would start to resent her. But Haley met his gaze, instantly reading the meaning behind it. It was the kind of unspoken understanding that came from years of knowing each other, something that hadn’t faded even after five years apart.
