All Chapters of FALLING FOR FOREVER : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Chapter 72: Unmasking the EnemyThe early morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. Olivia stirred awake to find Ethan already dressed, his tie knotted impeccably, and his expression set in grim determination.“Ethan,” she murmured, propping herself up on one elbow. “You’re leaving early?”He turned to her, his features softening momentarily. “I have a meeting with my security team. We’re narrowing down the suspects behind the leak.”Olivia frowned, her fingers gripping the edge of the blanket. “Do you really think it’s someone close to us?”Ethan’s jaw tightened. “Unfortunately, yes. It’s someone with access to both my personal and professional life. That narrows it down.”“I want to help,” she said firmly, swinging her legs over the side of the bed.He walked over, kneeling before her and taking her hands in his. “Your safety is my priority, Liv. Whoever is behind this has already dragged you into the mess. I can’t risk them doing more.”She c

Chapter 74: The Calm Before the StormEthan awoke to the soft hum of the city outside the penthouse windows. The faint smell of coffee brewing in the kitchen signaled that Olivia was already up. He smiled, stretching lazily. Despite the chaos surrounding Chloe’s dismissal and the media frenzy, the morning felt unusually peaceful.He threw on a shirt and made his way to the kitchen, finding Olivia perched on a stool, scrolling through her tablet. She looked up when she heard him, her face lighting up with a smile.“Good morning, Mr. Cole,” she teased, sliding a cup of coffee toward him.Ethan leaned down, brushing a kiss against her temple. “Morning, Miss Hart. What’s the agenda for today?”“Damage control, as always,” Olivia said with a sigh, holding up her tablet. “The tabloids are relentless. Look at this headline—‘Scorned Ex-Employee or Secret Mistress?’ Can you believe the nerve of these people?”Ethan’s jaw tightened as he scanned the screen. “They’ll print anything for clicks. L

Chapter 76: The Calm Before the StormEthan woke before dawn, his mind already racing with strategies. He watched Olivia sleep peacefully beside him, her face illuminated by the soft glow of the city lights streaming through the window. For a brief moment, he allowed himself to pause, brushing a strand of hair from her face.As much as he craved these quiet moments, reality loomed too heavily. Chloe’s betrayal and Lang’s interference weren’t just personal attacks, they were calculated moves to dismantle everything he had built.Sliding out of bed carefully so as not to wake Olivia, Ethan pulled on a robe and stepped into his study. He poured himself a glass of whiskey, even though the clock hadn’t yet struck six.He was mid-sip when Olivia appeared in the doorway, her sleepy eyes narrowing at the sight of the glass in his hand.“Whiskey? At this hour?” she asked, wrapping a blanket around her shoulders as she approached him.Ethan smirked, setting the glass down. “It’s a power move. H

Chapter 78: Storm Clouds GatherEthan woke before dawn, his arms still wrapped around Olivia. The rhythmic sound of her breathing should have been soothing, but his mind was already racing. The revelations from Victor Hayes still weighed heavily on him, and the names on that list felt like a ticking time bomb threatening to explode beneath his empire.As he carefully slipped out of bed, Olivia stirred.“Where are you going?” she murmured sleepily.“Just to clear my head,” Ethan replied softly, brushing a strand of hair from her face.She opened one eye, her expression a mixture of concern and curiosity. “At this hour?”“Go back to sleep, Liv. I’ll be back soon.”Olivia frowned but nodded, her trust in him evident. “Don’t overthink. You’re stronger than whatever’s bothering you.”Ethan kissed her forehead before stepping out, her words lingering in his mind.At Cole Enterprises, the office was eerily quiet as Ethan entered. Jake was already waiting for him, a laptop open and files spre

Chapter 80: A Date to RememberThe morning sun streamed through the curtains, waking Olivia from her slumber. She stretched lazily, only to realize Ethan was nowhere in sight. A faint sound of clinking dishes came from the kitchen. Curiosity piqued, she padded over to find him flipping pancakes with an unusual amount of concentration.“Two mornings in a row? Who are you trying to impress?” she teased, leaning against the counter.Ethan turned, an apron tied over his dress shirt, a rare playful glint in his eyes. “Just perfecting my skills. Thought you deserved something better than burnt toast.”Olivia chuckled, her heart fluttering at the domestic sight. “Who knew the ruthless Ethan Cole had a soft spot for pancakes?”“Only for you,” he replied smoothly, sliding a perfectly golden pancake onto a plate.Her cheeks warmed as she accepted the breakfast offering. “You’re being unusually charming today. What’s the occasion?”He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a low murmur. “You’ll fi
