Chapter 162:Shawn gripped the steering wheel in his fists as he drove through the streets with his mind racing. A seething anger was hidden behind the tightness of his jaw muscles.What was Ava up to? How far has she gone?Now that Ryan and Eva had brought her inconsistency of behavior to his notice, now it was glaringly clear Ava was caught up in something that would possibly affect them all. That she was in his study late last night rummaging through filled him more and more with suspicion.Was she searching for records? Cash? Evidence? Or concealing evidence of a crime?The thought tormented him. How could she let someone blackmail her into hurting and sabotaging her family? What could they possibly have on her? What is she hiding? Desperation now appeared to be the driving force behind her and propelling her toward the brink.His fists pounded the steering wheel in annoyance, if those speculations proved to be correct.And if she'd poisoned Eva under pressure, the circumstances w

Chapter 163Shawn Darlington walked into the conference room, his keen eyes taking in the oval table where members of the board had already gathered. At the head of the far end sat his grandfather, Mr Jonathan Darlington, his countenance as cryptic as always. On his left was Norman Darlington, his business rival cousin, sporting a sneering smirk that Shawn annoyed. His father Victor Darlington was sitting beside him with a smug expression on his face.Shawn clenched his teeth and spun on his cufflinks, a seething rage boiling under a polished control. Years before, he had learned never to be candid, not in a situation like this."I'm sorry for keeping you all waiting, " Shawn said casually, sitting down beside his father."I just needed to make sure everything was perfect.”Norman snorted at the back of his throat, sneering at his dad. "Perfect, huh?" We'll see."“Shall we begin?” Jonathan raised his brows at Shawn.Shawn nodded and stepped to the side and forward, glancing over at hi

Chapter 164Those nights were cold when Richard Wadsley would emerge from the mansion and out onto the balcony to gaze out across into the darkness beyond the immaculate grounds. His mind reeled, his head racing with visions of the firm, with spinning losses, and a spinning sense of everything running completely amok.The sound of footsteps brought him out of his reverie . He turned to see Eva approaching the balcony, face calm but strained."You wanted to see me, Dad?" she asked, approaching him.Richard's heart leaped, fists clenching on the railing as he turned around."Yes," he answered, poison dripping from his lips. "I can no longer entrust things into my sister's hands. The cost is becoming too much, and with every one of my attempts that I try to fix or find out what the problem is, another one comes up," he continued "Your sister is running the company on losses and If we continue this way , we would end up in bankruptcy.”Eva shrugged, pulling her arms across her chest.

"This doesn't make sense at all, and I can't seem to figure it out." Shawn paced, his dad's office, jaw muscle twitching with frustration.Henry Darlington, leaned forward placing his elbows on his table and tapped fingers on the wood, “Figure out what?”Shawn stopped and frowned. "Norman. How did he know about my exact presentation? Only somebody who is in this office would know anything. It has happened before when he gave my exact idea during the investors meeting, and I thought it was just a coincidence." His fists were tight. "But this isn't any coincidence, it was just too accurate. Either we have some kind of mole who works for the corporation, or…”Henry reclined and fixed his son with a cold gaze. "Or perhaps someone is eavesdropping on all your conversations and feeding it to him.”Shawn breathed in a bitter lungful of air, running his hand through his hair. "That's the only thing.

Chapter 166: Betrayal UncoveredThe blood-curdling, ear-splitting alarm ripped the air in Shawn Darlington's office, widened at the sight of the bug alarm wailing close to his desk. He shot Logan a furious look, their eyes that groaned with agony as he went on sweeping stuff off his desk, clearing space one-piece at a time.“There's a bug on my desk? Scan them all, one by one" Shawn commanded, his voice cracking. "We have to get that son of a bitch bug.”Logan rampaged through the desk, pens, folders, a glass frame shattered into pieces but there was nothing in it. The scanner kept roaring like a rabid animal.Shawn's hands were clenched into tight fists. He'd been thinking just how his cousin got all his ideas, but now he had proof. There has been a bug in his office all along, on his desk for that matter. Every plan, every conversation, every confidential meeting and information was being listened to.Logan removed the desk lamp. The beeping became more urgent.Shawn's teeth pressed

Ava shoved Shawn's brown front door wide open and took a deep breath, waiting there as the door creaked shut behind her. The day's activities hung heavy on her shoulders like a damp cape. And she couldn't wait to relax and have a good night's sleep. She walked in expecting to see Madam Tess all over the kitchen, but the house was quiet. It was at this time tonight that Madam Tess would be cleaning the kitchen and also preparing Shawn's study for his arrival from work. Her hand rested on the chill of the console table as she placed her handbag down. The reflex wasn't comforting. A cold, shivery scuttering feeling crawled down her spine as though someone was standing behind her, watching her.And she saw him.Shawn was at the bottom of the stairs, lit by the faint light of the hallway chandelier. One hand was in his sweatpants pocket, the other clumsily holding a tumbler of amber liquor. His eyes, which met hers, were dark and impenetrable.Ava's heart skipped a beat.She swallowed.

Ryan forced through the doors of Shawn's office without bothering to knock. His jaw was set in a line of urgency, his head a whirlwind of possibilities. The dim light inside the office cast shadows on Shawn's face, who sat behind his desk with his expression filled with controlled fury. The door slammed into the wall but shattered no portion of his stubborn fury. His fingers drummed slowly and deliberate over the fine polished wood. Ryan's pale blue eyes sparkled. "You said something about an emergency," he said, entering and closing the door. "What is it?” His voice was a little coarse and impatient Shawn exhaled, the weight of it coming down hard as it laid on his chest. He did not even look at Ryan, but instead allowed his eye to track the line of the desk in an attempt to put some sort of control on the anger in him. His tightened on the edge of the desk, and his knuckles whitened."Ava knows something.” Ryan's eyebrows sprang. "Knows something about what?"Shawn's head jerked

"Please, Eva. Just this once. I need you to go." Ava leaned against the doorframe, eyes pleading she clasped her hands together. "It'll be easy, just like always.”Eva stared at her twin sister, her belly twisting. "I don't know, Ava," she muttered. "This... it's getting out of hand. He still doesn't know it's me, and every time I go, I feel like I'm lying to him.”Ava waved a hand dismissively. "You really are worrying too much. Shawn's practically into me already, there's no risk. Besides," she added, grinning, "you've been having fun, haven't you? Getting out of the house, meeting people, finally enjoying yourself a bit?"“It's not that simple," Eva said, refusing to look at her sister. Fun? Each date with Shawn had left her exhilarated, yet guilty, a feeling she could not tease apart. She knew she was enjoying his company far too much, more than she could admit to herself. But what was also more difficult was pretending to be Ava night after night. "What if he finds out?”"He won'

Chapter 161Chapter 161Ryan's voice cut through the silence like a knife, asking "So what are you going to do about Ava? " Shawn leaned back in his chair, fidgeting against the armrest. His eyes flickered upon Eva, who sat next to him with clasped hands. He was aware of the storm of feelings building inside of her.He breathed out forcefully, rubbing his palm on his face. “I don’t know man.”Eva's turned to Shawn with a concerned look. “She's carrying your child, you can't leave her alone.” “You mean the one that she tricked me into?” The irritation was heavy in his tone.Ryan shook his head, sneered. "Exactly, she played dirty first, so why not. She should suffer the consequences of her actions. And besides, she abandoned you first and only wanted to claim you back because she got jealous of how happy Eva was with you.” Shawn clenched his jaw. "This isn’t about Ava alone, it's also about the babies. My parents have been on my neck about the babies and they are strongly against th

Shawn cupped Eva's cheek and said with a dry voice "Eva, Please dont push me away.”Eva's breath hitched. Her tears flowed freely as she gazed into his passionate, tormented eyes, her heart pounding against her ribs. She couldn't bring herself to say anything, instead,she grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him down into another kiss, desperate, and filled with every suppressed feeling she had hidden deep inside. She could taste her tears on their lips. Though it felt like she was on the edge of a cliff, seconds away from falling. she hadn't realized how much she missed him or how much she hoped for this day to come.Shawn replied with the same desperation, his hands grabbing the back of her head and pulling her closer and as if he was scared that she would escape his grasp once more if he lets go.Finally they pulled apart, both breathing heavily as he leaned his forehead against hers, their fast breaths mixing in the stressed atmosphere. “Why didn’t you tell me the truth, E
