Resisting My Ex-Bully Her Truth
KILLIAN“After you.” I gestured for Estelle to enter the meeting room that Father mentioned.“Thank you.” She gave me a polite nod before walking inside.I closed the door behind us and looked around. There was a large U-shaped table with more than thirty chairs around it. There was also a huge screen hanging on the wall on the opposite side of the top seat. Yep, I could bet that Father used that room to meet with the board of directors or major shareholders. Undeniably, this place was soundproof, but it was also my father's territory, and I was not taking any chances he might somehow eavesdrop on our conversation. I saw three cameras in the room, and God only knew how many hidden bugs were placed here by my father's orders.Luckily, I always carried around a small jamming device ready to use whenever I needed it. I pulled it out of my suit jacket pocket and placed it on the table. Estelle walked over to me and glanced at the little black device.“What's that for?” She raised her brow
Resisting My Ex-Bully An Old Flame
My hands opened and fisted on my sides. A child. I could have been a father. Fuck. Our lives could have been so much different if I had known.I took another step back and ran my fingers through my hair. My mother… She was the one responsible for everything. She was the main reason Estelle miscarried.“I would have protected you... both of you,” I strained through my teeth, locking my eyes on Estelle. “I would have found a way to keep you both safe despite my mother's sick attempts to separate us.”Anger seethed through every pore of my skin, emphasizing the dull ache in my chest—an odd sense of loss.More tears streamed down Estelle's cheeks. “You... you don't understand. I was so scared back then… I was a pregnant minor, and I couldn't even imagine what would have happened if my father had found out about it… It was enough that your mother was against it. She was going to get me expelled and make the rumors spread. How could I possibly live in Flower Hills after that? Besides, where
Resisting My Ex-Bully Jealousy
JOSIE“I need to tell you something important.” Once I heard Killian's tense voice, I knew I wasn't going to hear anything pleasant.I had just finished making our coffee. I placed the cups on the kitchen table and sat down; Killian sat in front of me. “Well?” I urged, curving my lips into a nervous smile.“Estelle will be here for another two weeks,” he stated, and my shoulders slumped.I could feel my chest tighten. Jealousy was a nasty thing, but I couldn't help but feel insecure. She was Killian's first love. Hell, he'd started bullying me because of her! How could I not feel insecure when she appeared in his life again?“We will deal with it.” He smiled faintly and leaned across the table, reaching for my hands. “We will deal with everything. I will do whatever I can to stop this merger from—”“Wow!” I slipped my hands away and frowned. “What merger?” I demanded.Killian sighed. “Father was talking with Mr. Yan about the merger… but he failed to inform me that the two companies th
Resisting My Ex-Bully Authority Card
“Whoever you are, Ms. Yan, it's a common courtesy to knock before you enter.” Ashley stepped forward, folding her hands across her chest.Estelle pursed her lips as she looked my friend up and down. “And you are?”“Ashley Farnell,” she said, her chin inching up.I pinched the bridge of my nose. God, this day had merely started, and I could already feel the incoming headache. Drawing a deep breath, I stepped forward and gave Estelle a forced smile. “Ms. Yan, what brings you here so early? And does Killian know you're here?”She shrugged. “He doesn't need to know. Thanks to Mr. Maxwell Blair, I have a certain authority here, which allows me to go wherever I want.”I wanted to punch her… and punch Mr. Blair too. Unfortunately for Estelle, I was good at memorizing things, and I had once memorized Blair Digital's status. “Even Mr. Blair cannot give you such authority here.” I fixed my eyes on hers and smirked. “And you certainly don't have the right to enter this office or even this floor
Resisting My Ex-Bully Dinner Talk
“I'm sorry it turned out this way.” That was about the fifth time I heard Killian say it since we left the Blair Digital building. He took me to his friend's restaurant for dinner. He did it most likely because he felt guilty for putting me in this situation, but I would never say no to good food.Killian pulled out a chair for me as we were about to sit at our table. He tried to smile, but I could still see the guilt tensing his every muscle. I sighed and grabbed his hand, smiling. “Please stop apologizing. You didn't do anything wrong. It was all your father's doing.”He clenched his jaw as he walked to his side of the table. “Still, it pisses me off that I couldn't respond differently to his ridiculous demand.”“It's not that bad.” I shrugged slightly, keeping my faint smile. “It could have been worse. At least we convinced your father to limit the number of unwanted guests to Estelle alone. One person is much easier to control than an army of Estelle's men, snooping around our pro
Resisting My Ex-Bully Tension
I slept alone that night. Killian had spent the whole night in his study room, desperate to find anything about Yan Hao and what kind of debt he might have meant. I couldn't blame him for being restless. The news we had heard from Gunner changed everything. It proved that Killian's father had other than just business reasons to collaborate with Yan Hao and Diamond Dragon, and that made stopping the merger from happening that much harder.I tried to be understanding, but it didn't make me feel less lonely. Even though Killian was only a few rooms away, he had become distant, and even in the moments he had his arms wrapped around me, it felt as if he wasn't truly there.“Come in,” he called out as I knocked at his study door.“I brought you coffee.” I smiled, walking to his desk, a cup of espresso in hand.“Thanks,” he tossed, keeping his eyes fixed on the laptop screen.I stopped in front of his desk, looking at him, but he seemed hell-bent on ignoring I was there. “Maybe you should ta
Resisting My Ex-Bully Talking to an Enemy
Knowing the criminal code was the only thing stopping me from ending this tour in the bloodiest way possible. No one had ever tested my patience and control the way Estelle did. Yet, I found a way to stop myself from killing her. Me and my brain agreed to treat her like a lunatic who didn't truly know what she was saying and doing. As I uploaded new settings into my system, I was finally able to ignore her rambling about how she would soon become the owner of this company and focus on leading her through the important elements of our project.“And I believe this is it.” I forced myself to smile, stopping by the elevators. “I've shown you everything there is to see about the Happy App.”She wagged her finger “no” and chuckled. “I need one more thing. I need all access codes so that my specialists can test whether we can make some improvements.”The tame I'd made to block my rage cracked into pieces. My hands curled into tight fists as I stepped closer and locked my eyes on hers. “That'
Resisting My Ex-Bully Grim Assumptions
KILLIANI slumped in the chair in Gunner's office and dragged my hand over my face. “A lot of rumors and nothing solid,” I mused, glancing at Gunner and his two men, who had just entered the room, placing the latest reports on the desk.“You should get some sleep,” Gunner said, walking over to me and patting my shoulder. “We will check the rest of the leads ourselves.”“I wanted to have at least one concrete piece of information before I return home,” I told him. “But this? It's just more and more frustrating.”Gunner narrowed his eyes at me, then snapped his fingers, telling his men to leave the room. Once the door closed behind them, he turned to me. “Mind telling me what's going on? Your thoughts are clearly elsewhere, and this ‘frustration’ has nothing to do with the interrogations.”I pinched the bridge of my nose. “I'm not sure you want to hear about my… relationship problems.”He chuckled, grabbing a chair and sitting in front of me. “Always happy to hear you out. As a once-mar
