Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 757

The next morning, Emmy got up early and spent half an hour moving around, shaking off the last bits of sleep. When she realized Ollie still wasn’t up, she decided to check on him.

She quietly pushed open his bedroom door. The first thing she saw was a gun sitting right on his desk.

Even though her therapy had helped a lot, seeing that gun out of nowhere still made her chest tighten. She forced herself to breathe and stepped closer.

As she got a better look, her heart skipped. The gun looked… way too familiar.

She reached out and picked it up. The cold metal sent a shiver through her hand. Even the grip had that same unique pattern she remembered.

How was this possible?

Back when Dean’s business kept growing, there were always more people watching him from the shadows. He started carrying a gun just like this all the time, never letting his guard down. Emmy had seen it more times than she could count.

Ollie rolled over in bed, rubbing his eyes as he sat up. His voice was still soft with sleep. “Emmy?”

She snapped out of her thoughts and held up the gun. “Ollie, where did you get this?”

He pointed out the window. “I found it by the road.”

“When I picked it up, it was just a bunch of little pieces, so I brought it home.” He puffed up his chest, a proud look on his face. “I spent a long time putting it together!”

Emmy stared at the boy, not even five years old, completely stunned. “You put this together? All by yourself?”

“Yeah,” Ollie replied, grinning. “Don’t worry, Emmy. It’s just a toy gun. Probably some kid couldn’t figure it out and tossed it. It was super hard, though. Took me hours!”

A toy gun?

Other people might have been fooled, but Emmy knew exactly what she was looking at. This was a Swiss SIG Sauer P232, famous for being complicated and reliable. It had fifty-six tiny, precise parts. Even adults with training needed time and patience to put one together. Make a mistake, and you’d have a useless pile of metal.

But Ollie, a little kid, had just… done it?
