After the Breakup, the Billionaire Lost Control! Chapter 309
At the Gibson estate, the men of the family gathered for dinner after work. Xena sat silently, her head bowed as she picked at her food, a heavy and gloomy expression clouding her face. Meanwhile, Ethan and Mr. Gibson discussed company projects at the table. Mr. Gibson Sr. cast a cold glance at Xena before turning to Mrs. Gibson. “What did you hear from their side after the apology today? Did you meet Wilfred?” Mr. Gibson Sr. cared little about Haley’s feelings as Wilfred was the one in charge. As long as Wilfred forgave Xena, the collaboration between their families could proceed smoothly. Mrs. Gibson sipped her soup before replying, “Mr. Wilfred must’ve gone to the office. Haley was the only one at home. She accepted Xena’s apology and the gifts, but she said any discussions about the collaboration would need to be handled by Wilfred. She doesn’t involve herself in business matters.” Mr. Gibson Sr.’s sharp, hawk-like eyes gleamed. “Hmph, she really knows how to deflect

“Perfect timing. We’ll take him to the airport in a bit and give him a surprise,” Haley said with a smile. Alex, still half-asleep, rubbed his eyes and murmured. Finding his mom by his side, he was disoriented, unsure if he was dreaming or awake. “Mommy, Chase, Uncle Justin...” Alex mumbled as he rolled into Haley’s arms, his voice soft and unclear. He didn’t want to get up. He wished Uncle Justin, Mommy, and his brother could all be with him right now. Haley only caught him calling her name. The rest was too muffled, likely just dream talk, she thought. Seeing him sleeping soundly and unable to wake up, Haley decided to let him continue resting. After all, he had spent hours in the garden playing with his drone the night before, exhausting himself completely. She gently pulled over a nearby light blanket to cover his stomach and kissed his forehead before leaving the room. The entire moment was full of motherly affection. Alex slept soundly until they were already in

In the children’s room, Alex pointed at the big bed in the middle of the room. “Chase, tonight we’re sleeping together on this!” Haley had considered getting two kids’ beds but decided against it since the boys wouldn’t be staying for long. A single double bed was spacious enough to fit both of them and even a couple of adults if needed. Alex, eager to please, helped Chase unpack his suitcase, carefully organizing his clothes into the wardrobe. Then, with a proud grin, he carried over a stack of books he had already prepared and set them down in front of Chase. “Here! This is the gift Uncle Justin got for you—introductory physics and practice workbooks!” Alex beamed, his grin a little sly. He thought he was brilliant: Chase loved books and problem-solving, so this gift would be right up his alley. Once Chase finished the exercises, Alex could conveniently hand the workbooks back to Uncle Justin. “Hahaha! What a perfect plan!” he thought to himself.Unfortunately, Chase o

Chase was still young, but that didn’t stop Richard from irresponsibly staying up late playing video games with him.By midday, the five of them headed to a nearby restaurant for lunch. Chase and Alex were so wrapped up in catching up with each other that Justin completely slipped their minds—one forgot to ask, and the other forgot to bring him up.Meanwhile, at RC Corporation, the monthly meeting was underway. A formal complaint had been filed, accusing Sam, the CEO’s personal assistant, of accepting bribes, selling off company project details at reduced prices, and personally profiting—actions allegedly leading to the failure of several key projects.The accuser, Steven Sullivan, a secretary under Sam’s management, stood at the back of the conference room, passionately presenting what he claimed was irrefutable evidence. His tone was filled with righteous indignation as he laid out Sam’s supposed crimes over the years.To ensure credibility, Steven had prepared a comprehensive

Justin’s expression darkened, his face like a storm cloud. The executives seated below the conference table were relentless, their voices incessant. “Mr. Spencer, words alone aren’t enough. You need to produce evidence to prove your innocence!” Mr. Ziegler, seized the moment to make things difficult for Sam, his opportunistic smirk barely concealed. “Just like Mr. Sullivan did—lay out all your evidence from the past few years in an organized report for us to review. Otherwise, your explanation carries no weight!” he added.Sam’s gaze was ice-cold as he glanced over. He knew exactly what was happening. Producing evidence to clear his name required time, and Mr. Ziegler’s public demand during the meeting was a deliberate attempt to humiliate him. “Exactly! Such a waste of the trust Mr. Yates has shown you all these years,” chimed in another executive, sparking a chain reaction among the others. “Anyone who doesn’t prioritize the company’s interests has no business sitting

Emma instinctively recoiled from Jacob’s proximity, the scent of his female secretary’s perfume clinging to him, further deepening her disgust. It was a natural repulsion, as if her instincts rejected his entire presence. Her voice was cold, laced with warning. “There are surveillance cameras in the conference room. I suggest you rein in your behavior. Don’t create unnecessary trouble for us.” “Oh, really? You were anything but reserved last night in my bed,” Jacob sneered, leaning in closer, his breath brushing against her lips. Jacob had just returned from a business trip to another city the night before, and the memory of their time together was still fresh in his mind. Overwhelmed by desire, he had wasted no time summoning Emma to his place for a night of unbridled passion. She had been an eager participant, and the thought of her enthusiasm lingered vividly in his mind. After their night together, the two had carefully laid out the final steps of today’s exposé—a plan

Helen was so furious she nearly swung at Richard. Her hand stopped halfway, and suddenly, she thought of Zac. Could it have been him who sent the flowers? That overly cheesy line—it did sound like something he would say. She hesitated, tossed the card onto the table, and reached for her phone to message him for confirmation. Did he follow her home yesterday? That idiot Zac! Just as her fingers brushed the phone, four pairs of wide eyes turned to look at her all at once. “Ahem, I don’t even have a boyfriend. Who would send me flowers? They’re probably a mistake or meant for Haley,” Helen blurted, awkwardly brushing it off, her expression slightly uneasy. Alex, who knew the truth, sat across from her with a mischievous grin, watching his aunt with a look that screamed, “I know everything.”Helen narrowed her eyes, shooting him a warning glance that said, “Don’t you dare spill anything.”If Haley had thought to open the card and take a closer look at the handwriting

What Justin hadn’t expected was that Haley and Wilfred were actually living together. Of course, it made sense—Wilfred wasn’t just supporting her for nothing. But Justin wasn’t about to give up. Even if Emily had changed her name to Haley, and even if she and Wilfred had shared a relationship, he didn’t care. Not only did he intend to undermine Wilfred, but he also planned to take Haley back. “That’s enough. You can leave now,” Justin said, dismissing Sam with a wave. Sam nodded and turned to leave but paused and turned back. “Mr. Yates, what about the investigation team?” “Let them continue. In the meantime, take your vacation days for this year,” Justin replied coldly. “Understood.” Sam rarely took vacations, let alone holidays. His work hours almost perfectly mirrored Justin’s. If Justin didn’t rest, neither did he. For any unused leave, RC Corporation compensated employees with triple pay, meaning Sam had earned a substantial amount over the years. Now, he w

“Sis, I’m pretty handsome, right?” Justin asked, grinning proudly.And just like that, his voice shattered the illusion Haley had briefly fallen into.She gave him a look. “Don’t flatter yourself. Let’s go.”The two headed downstairs, where William was already waiting to drive them to RC Corporation. He pulled into the underground parking garage, and they made their way up to the executive floor.Inside the president’s office, Haley still wasn’t fully at ease. She had him run through the negotiation script one more time, rehearsing the key points like a stage play. Only when Justin delivered his lines with calm precision did she finally relax.“This shipment is critical for the international project’s timeline,” she reminded him. “You read through the materials yesterday—you get how important this is, right?”Justin nodded.“Don’t stress too much. Just channel that cool, commanding energy you had a minute ago,” Haley said, coaching him seriously. “Get in there and bluff your way

Following Haley into the kitchen, Justin was about to speak when he caught the sound of her voice—she was chatting with Helen.Haley had just poured herself a glass of water from the fridge. Helen, as always, was talking non-stop at her side.“Sis, with Justin calling you ‘sis’ every day, doesn’t it kinda feel like you’ve got yourself a younger, puppy-eyed boyfriend?” Her tone was teasing, full of mischief. “Kinda like that matchmaking event I set up for you back then.”She nudged Haley’s shoulder, waggling her eyebrows suggestively.That one line pulled both of them back to that night at the bar.Haley shot her a look. “You’re pregnant. Can you not let your imagination run wild for once? If you’re that curious, have Zac call you ‘sis’ every night.”“Oh, come on. What’s the harm in a little gossip?” Helen giggled. “Honestly though, this amnesia version of Justin is kind of adorable. All innocent and wide-eyed. You’re telling me you don’t feel anything?”“No,” Haley answered flat

Haley pressed her fingers to her temple, her headache building. “Prepare a full briefing. I want all the contract details, background on the partner company, and a response script. He needs to memorize everything by tomorrow. He’s going to that meeting.”She gestured toward Justin, clearly making him responsible.“Yes, ma’am,” Sam replied.“And one more thing,” Haley added, her tone sharp. “Find a new supplier. Once this delivery is done, terminate the contract. We’re not working with unreliable partners.”“Understood.”As Sam left, Haley turned to Justin, looking down at him from where she stood. “Memorize the talking points. Lock the key contract terms in your head. Tomorrow, you’re facing their CEO. Think you can handle it?”Justin blinked up at her with wide, innocent eyes. “Don’t worry, Sis. If it’s something you asked me to do, I’ll make sure I get it right!”*That evening at Mistletoe Villa, Helen had just returned from a prenatal checkup. Everyone was gathered in the l

“You want your memory back, right? Great. Go ahead and read through these files and sign off on them. That’ll jog your memory in no time.”Haley pushed the day’s workload onto Justin’s desk. Memory loss or not, she was sure his business instincts and decision-making skills were still in there somewhere.It was just like when she had lost her memory. Her painting skills and foreign languages had still been there, buried in her subconscious.Justin didn’t need to recall every detail of the past. As long as he could function in the office and resume his role as president, that was good enough.He froze. Sure, he wanted to grow closer to Haley and get her to care about him again, but going back to work so soon? That hadn’t exactly been the plan.Still, realizing what she wanted, he didn’t argue. Instead, he obediently picked up the first document and started reading carefully.Then, suddenly, he asked, “Sis, what’s the project timeline for the international expansion? I don’t remembe

Zac jogged off in a hurry, not daring to stick around and witness more of Justin’s embarrassment.Justin, having failed to sneak into Haley’s room, had no choice but to sulk back to the guest room the housekeeper had prepared for him.*The next morning, Haley came downstairs for breakfast. She hadn’t slept well—staying up late to work, only to get riled up by Justin all over again. The dark circles under her eyes were impossible to hide, no matter how much concealer she applied.She stepped into the dining room and spotted Justin already sitting at the table.“Morning, sis!” he chirped.He looked every bit the picture of youthful energy, dressed in a clean athletic tracksuit, his expression bright and full of life. He really did look like a high school senior.Haley took one look at his well-rested, cheerful face and felt an unexplainable surge of irritation rise in her chest.She didn’t say a word. Ignoring him completely, she walked to her seat and sat down. Her gaze swept t

After dinner, Haley returned to her room to get some work done. There were a few reports she still needed to read through, so she made herself a cup of coffee for a quick energy boost.She had just stepped inside and closed the door when a sudden force hit from behind, pushing through the door and into her back. She stumbled forward, nearly spilling the coffee all over herself.Her brows furrowed in irritation. She turned around—only to see Justin already halfway into her room, the door swinging shut behind him.He froze, looking immediately guilty. “I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to!” he blurted out.His voice carried that youthful warmth, clear and gentle like an 18-year-old boy. His lowered gaze and sheepish expression were tinged with a kind of helpless remorse that made it hard for Haley to stay angry.She stepped back, putting distance between them. Her tone turned cool. “What are you doing in here?”Justin took that as permission to step fully inside and shut the door behind him
After the Breakup, the Billionaire Lost Control! Chapter 716
At that moment, Justin furrowed his brows and stared at Haley with confusion, as if trying hard to place her face. After a long pause, his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement. He pointed at Haley and exclaimed, “Sis!”That one word stopped Zac in his tracks. He blinked. Did Justin… just slip into little brother mode?And he wasn’t the only one thrown off. Chase and Alex stood frozen, mouths slightly open. Alex placed a hand on Justin’s forehead, then leaned in to check again.No fever.So why was he calling their mom sister?And now… what were they supposed to call him?Haley's gaze locked on Justin, intense and searching. She scanned him from head to toe, as if looking for a clue—anything to explain this strange behavior. But she found nothing.Justin, noticing her silence, instantly wilted. His lips curled into a small pout. “Is it because I’m useless? Is that why you’re ignoring me, sis?”“Sis?” Haley turned slowly toward Zac, her voice low, suspicious. “What is that abou

Zac straightened up and wiped the last traces of tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand.“Haley’s fine,” he said. “Just a few minor injuries. You’ve been out for over two weeks. She healed a long time ago. Right now, she’s temporarily managing RC Corporation for you.“She went on a business trip to that island project you were working on. I heard the scenery’s amazing. Chase and Alex went with her.”“Managing?” Justin repeated, his voice faint.“Yeah,” Zac nodded. “She didn’t accept the assets or shares you left her. She’s just acting as president until you wake up and can take over again.”Zac hadn’t originally known all this. He had only overheard Haley explaining it to the family after she agreed to step in. He had been surprised, even though, in hindsight, it made sense. Justin had written up a will before the rescue mission, leaving everything to Haley. It was bold but not unexpected.Justin lowered his gaze, eyes dimming as he quietly muttered, “Temp

“The building at the heart of the island is a massive wedding chapel,” the staff member explained cheerfully. “The first floor is for the ceremony itself, the second for the banquet. The third floor is reserved for dressing and makeup, and from the fourth floor up, it’s all accommodations. The very top level is the bridal suite.”The more he spoke, the deeper Haley’s frown became. Something wasn’t adding up.“So this is an all-inclusive wedding venue?” she cut in.The man chuckled, shaking his head. “Oh, no, no. This place isn’t open to the public. Mr. Yates built it exclusively for his wife. Just the two of them. One couple. That’s it.”Haley was at a loss for words.Even Alex, the more clueless of the twins, caught on. His eyes sparkled as he tugged at Haley’s hand. “Mommy! Uncle Justin built this place for you! It’s so romantic!”Five years ago—around the time he and Chase were born—their dad had already been planning a wedding for their mom.Suddenly, Alex didn’t feel quit
