The following day, Paulina dove back into work with renewed focus. The world’s eyes were on Project Nexus, and her schedule was packed with calls from potential partners, government officials, and media outlets. But even amidst the chaos, her thoughts often drifted to Elijah, whose steady presence had become a source of comfort and strength. In the middle of a meeting, Leila slid a note across the table. Paulina glanced down, reading the scribbled words: You’re smiling too much. Who’s the lucky guy? Paulina shot her a mock glare, but the blush rising to her cheeks betrayed her. Leila grinned, leaning closer. “You deserve this, you know,” she whispered before returning her attention to the presentation. Later that evening, Elijah met Paulina at her office as she wrapped up for the day. He leaned against the doorframe, a familiar twinkle in his eyes. “You’ve been busy,” he said, watching her finish typing an email. Paulina sighed, shutting her laptop and stretching. “That’s an

Chapter 178: A Quiet Morning Paulina awoke to the soft rays of sunlight streaming through her bedroom window. For the first time in what felt like forever, there was no impending crisis, no urgent meeting, and no looming threats. She stretched lazily, the weight on her shoulders feeling just a bit lighter. As she turned over, her eyes fell on Elijah, sitting in a chair by the window with a cup of coffee in hand. He was reading something on his phone, his expression calm and focused. “You didn’t wake me,” Paulina murmured, her voice still groggy. Elijah glanced up, his lips curving into a soft smile. “You needed the rest. Besides, you looked too peaceful to disturb.” Paulina sat up, running a hand through her hair. “Peaceful? That’s a first.” Elijah chuckled, setting his coffee down. “You’re allowed to be, you know. Especially after everything you’ve accomplished.” Paulina smiled faintly, her heart warming at his words. “I still have so much to do.” Elijah stood and wal

The media continued to expose the coalition’s corruption, and public opinion was overwhelmingly in favor of Paulina’s fight for innovation and transparency. With Project Nexus now a global conversation, Paulina found herself juggling a relentless schedule of interviews, meetings, and strategic planning sessions. But amidst the chaos, one thing remained constant Elijah’s presence. One morning, as Paulina reviewed her upcoming agenda, Elijah entered her office carrying a tray with breakfast. “You skipped dinner last night,” he said, setting the tray on her desk. “So, I figured I’d make sure you don’t skip breakfast too.” Paulina smiled, warmth spreading through her chest. “You’re too good to me, Elijah.” He leaned against her desk, his arms crossed. “Someone has to make sure you take care of yourself. Besides, I like spoiling you.” Paulina laughed, a rare sound that lightened the room. “Well, I

But as the adrenaline wore off, exhaustion set in. Paulina sat on a couch in the facility’s lounge, her shoulders slumped as she finally allowed herself a moment to breathe. Elijah entered quietly, carrying two cups of coffee. He handed one to her and sat beside her, their shoulders almost touching. “You should rest,” Elijah said, his voice low and gentle. Paulina looked at him, her lips curving into a faint smile. “You always say that, but I don’t think I know how anymore.” Elijah chuckled softly, his warmth breaking through the tension lingering in the air. “I don’t think anyone’s ever earned a break more than you, Paulina. You just dismantled one of the most powerful networks in the world.” Paulina sipped her coffee, her eyes
Reborn to revenge my cheating Husband Chapter 175: The Final Broadcast
The secure location chosen for the release of the evidence was a high-tech underground facility provided by one of Elijah’s trusted allies. It was equipped with encrypted servers, a direct line to media outlets, and a secure perimeter that ensured the coalition couldn’t interfere. Paulina stood in the control room, watching as her team worked to prepare the files for release. The tension in the air was electric everyone knew this was the moment they had been fighting for. Leila approached with a tablet, her expression determined. “We’re ready. The evidence is organized, verified, and queued for transmission. Once we hit send, every major media outlet will have it within seconds.” Paulina nodded, her resolve unshaken. “Let’s do it.” Elijah entered the room, his presence a steadying force. “Perimeter’s secure. No sign of the coalition yet, but we need to stay vigilant. They won’t let this go without a fight.” Paulina turned to him, her voice calm but firm. “This is the endgame
Reborn to revenge my cheating Husband Chapter 171: A Turning Point
The sabotage attempt on the lab had sent shockwaves through Paulina’s team, but it had also galvanized their determination. The coalition’s increasingly desperate actions were a sign that Project Nexus was on the verge of disrupting their carefully constructed world. Paulina stood in the lab the morning after the attack, her eyes scanning the prototype. It was unharmed, but the damage to the surrounding area was a reminder of just how high the stakes had become. Leila approached, holding a tablet. “We’ve identified the person who planted the explosive. He’s connected to a private security firm funded by one of the coalition’s key members.” Paulina’s jaw tightened. “Do we have enough evidence to tie it back to them?” Leila nodded. “It’s circumstantial, but it’s a start. If we can link the payments from the coalition to the firm, we’ll have them cornered.” While the team worked to gather more evidence, Elijah increased security measures at the lab and Paulina’s home. He was a

The morning air was heavy with tension as Paulina and her team prepared to release the evidence that would dismantle the coalition. The secure cabin buzzed with activity, each person working to finalize their part of the operation. Leila was coordinating with journalists and law enforcement, ensuring that every outlet would receive the files simultaneously. Julia sat quietly at the table, reviewing her statement for the media, while Paulina and Elijah double-checked their security measures. “This is it,” Paulina said, her voice steady despite the weight of the moment. “Once this goes out, there’s no turning back.” Elijah placed a hand on her shoulder, his touch grounding her. “We’ve come too far to stop now. Whatever happens, we’re ready.” Just as they were about to begin the release, an alert from the security system blared through the cabin. Elijah moved to the monitor, his eyes narrowing as he saw multiple vehicles approaching the perimeter. “They’ve found us,” Elijah sai
Reborn to revenge my cheating Husband Chapter 173: The Escape
The tension in the room was suffocating as Paulina, Elijah, and Julia prepared to leave the secure location. The stack of documents Julia had provided was the final piece of evidence needed to bring down the coalition, but it also made them targets. “We’ll take the back route,” Elijah said, his voice calm but firm. “The coalition’s people are likely watching the main roads. Stay close, and don’t stop unless I tell you.” Julia, visibly nervous but resolute, nodded. “I knew this would be dangerous, but I didn’t realize it would escalate so quickly.” Paulina placed a reassuring hand on Julia’s arm. “You’re doing the right thing, Julia. We’ll get through this.” The trio exited the building through a discreet side door, moving swiftly toward Elijah’s car. The night was eerily quiet, the air thick with the sense that they were being watched. As they climbed into the car, Elijah scanned the area one last time before starting the engine. “Buckle up,” he said, his tone leaving no roo

But this project has faced relentless attacks from those who fear change, those who would rather suppress innovation than adapt to a better future.” Paulina detailed the coalition’s sabotage attempts, the bribes, and the cyberattacks, presenting the evidence her team had uncovered.
