All Chapters of My Ex-Husband is Out of Control: Chapter 471 - Chapter 480

Sophia’s POVElijah and I paused outside the function room, where a gentle murmur of voices filtered through the doors.Tonight, this dinner would mark an important chapter in the history of Sinclair Realty, paving the way for a journey toward overcoming challenges and rising higher despite being pulled down. Elijah took my hands in his, looking at me with a rare softness. And in that moment, all the apprehension and anxiety gripping my heart seemed to melt away. “Sophia,” he said quietly, his voice steady but full of feeling, “thank you. I can’t tell you how much this means to me. For everything you’ve done, the late nights, the endless calls… and just for being here. You’re the best partner, the best wife, anyone could ask for.”I felt a rush of emotion, a mix of pride and love that made my voice catch. “Elijah, I believe in you. I’ve seen what Sinclair Realty means to you, how hard you’ve worked. You’ve been an amazing husband, and if anyone deserves to see their dreams thrive, i

Elijah’s POV“Adrian,” I said, standing as he walked into my office. We shook hands, his grip firm but friendly.“Good to see you, Elijah,” he replied, offering a relaxed smile. “Sorry I missed the dinner for the investors. Scheduling got crazy, you know how it is. But I hope there’s still a slot open for me and my father?”I nodded, gesturing for him to sit across from me. “Sophia mentioned you’d confirmed, so we reserved a spot for both of you. Wouldn’t want to miss out on adding your name to our roster. Of course, a well-known international celebrity such as yourself can do wonders for good publicity.”Adrian chuckled, settling into his seat as I handed him the paperwork. “Glad to hear it. I have to say, I’m looking forward to this. Helping out and growing my investment with Sinclair Realty? Sounds like a win-win to me.”We went over the paperwork, signing page after page. As he signed the final document, I felt a genuine sense of gratitude. “Adrian… thank you. For believing in thi

Elijah’s POVThe safe house loomed in silence, its dark, vacant windows staring back at us like empty eyes. My bodyguards flanked me on either side, blending into the shadows but close enough to reach me at a moment’s notice.Their silent presence was both reassuring and unsettling—proof that I wasn’t just here as an observer but as someone who needed protection.Julian gestured for the team to hold, his hand raised in a silent command. He exchanged a glance with Nolan, who nodded, tapping into his earpiece. “No movement inside,” he whispered, his voice barely a breath. “It’s as if they knew we were coming.”I scanned the empty windows, instincts flaring. “Are we sure this is the right place?” I murmured. One of The Arcane Network’s men turned to me and nodded. Julian’s eyes narrowed as he glanced down at the scanner. “Intel confirmed it. This place has been their main hub in the area. They’ve been using it for regional operations until very recently.” He lowered his voice as he adde

Elijah’s POVThe grinding hum of the machinery grew louder, echoing off the concrete walls. Sparks flew as the team cut through the reinforced door, everyone on high alert, anticipating what might lie on the other side. My heart pounded, my eyes fixed on the door. Julian and I exchanged a quick look—he knew the stakes were high tonight.Finally, with a hiss of steam and a heavy groan, the door gave way, revealing a narrow, darkened passage stretching deep into the estate’s lower levels.We entered carefully, my bodyguards close by, their weapons drawn. The stale air reeked of neglect, mixed with a faint metallic tang. Julian motioned to the operatives to move forward, covering every angle.“Stay sharp,” he whispered, and we pushed deeper into the passage, the corridor twisting and narrowing until we reached a closed door at the end—a simple, unmarked entry, almost too plain for its significance.Inside, the room was faintly illuminated by the glow of multiple computer monitors, casti

Sophia’s POVMy heart pounded as I looked at Kayla, her words sending a shiver down my spine. “Julia?” I repeated. “What about her?”From the corner of my eye, I could see my husband fidgeting in his seat, eager to know the details too. Kayla exchanged a glance with Connor, who gave her a subtle nod, encouraging her to continue. She shifted Asha in her arms, then took a deep breath. “I ran into Lila in the office earlier today. She’d just returned from Mexico, and she… she swore she saw Julia there.”I felt my breath catch in my throat. “Mexico?” I repeated, trying to process the shock, the disbelief that followed it. Elijah sat forward, his brows knitted in fierce concentration.“Did Lila say where exactly she saw her?” he asked, his voice low, intense. I could see the fire sparking back in his eyes, the urgency building.Kayla shook her head. “She didn’t give me the details. She was in a hurry, and I had to get back to Asha, so we couldn’t talk more. But she was adamant it was Jul
