Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 836

If Emmy’s ten percent stake was the anchor that kept him steady, then the document Dean handed over was the real game changer. With this in his hand, he could flatten Brian without breaking a sweat. Maybe even James would have to think twice about going up against him.

Dean had actually given up the entire continental market, just for Emmy. The numbers on that paper were insane, almost unreal, but there it was, all signed and sealed like it was no big deal.

Tyler closed the folder slowly, his eyes lingering on Dean, thoughts swirling behind them. Then he smiled.

“Mr. Sparrow, you really are something,” he said. “I doubt even James could match what you’ve done for her.”

He gave Dean a look that said he meant more than his words. “I’ve always believed that people who are meant for each other will end up together, no matter what.”

Dean’s face didn’t show anything, as if giving up an empire was like tossing out an old shirt. He stood and straightened his sleeves.

“Let’s hope this partnership lasts,” he said, then turned and walked out of the office.

…

Monday morning.

Emmy woke up to her right eyelid twitching nonstop. It was one of those days when everything felt off, and she just didn’t want to go to the Nelson Corporation shareholders’ meeting.

But Tyler’s people were already waiting outside the old house. A black stretch Lincoln was parked at the curb, and ten bodyguards in black suits stood by the car. The whole setup looked intimidating.

Emmy grabbed Lorraine’s hand and whispered, “Lorraine, you have to stick with me today, no matter what.”

Lorraine nodded hard. “Don’t worry, ma’am. I won’t leave your side.”

Before heading out, Emmy clutched a little charm in her hand for luck. As soon as she got in the car, that uneasy feeling only got worse.

She pulled out her phone and opened her chat with James.

[Heading to the Nelson Corporation shareholders’ meeting today. Tyler sent a whole team to protect me, so you don’t have to worry.]
