I Funded His Company And He Funded His Affair With My Money Chapter 08

The air turned heavy in an instant.

Just then, the conference room door opened.

One company executive after another walked in.

The CFO, legal director, operations director… all of them were present.

Hayden’s face went completely pale.

He watched the people who had once treated him with the utmost respect now stand neatly behind

In that moment, he finally realized who the true owner of the company was.

His dignity crumbled completely.

He looked down at the divorce papers in his hand and signed with a trembling hand.

The pen scratched harshly against the paper.

When he finished the last stroke, he slammed the documents onto the table.

He looked up at me, his eyes filled with bitter hatred.

“You’ll regret this.”

With that, he turned and left, his figure pathetic and defeated.

Nevaeh hurried after him, too frightened to say another word,

All the executives greeted me respectfully in unison. “Ms. Spencer. We’re sorry we failed to oversee

the company properly.”

I waved a hand. “It’s not your fault. I trusted the wrong person.”

I paused, my gaze turning cold. “Since a mistake was made, it must be fixed.”

From that day on, the company underwent a complete overhaul.

I showed no mercy.

Everyone who had sided with Hayden and mocked me was fired one by one, including Joanie who

had blocked me at the door.

She begged tearfully, saying she was only following orders, but I didn’t spare her a single glance.

The finance department began a full audit, going through every transaction and tracing all of Hayden’s capital flows over the years.

The legal department simultaneously gathered evidence for prosecution.

By the time I finished all this, a month had passed.

The company was back on track, and everything was moving in a good direction.

But overnight, clients canceled contracts, the market was seized, and the company’s market value

evaporated by nearly ten percent.

I learned what had happened during a break between meetings.

“Hayden has started his own company,” my secretary reported quietly. “He poached a batch of our long-time clients. He also beat us to market with a product that was originally our new release.

Now everyone in the industry is saying…”

She hesitated for a moment.

“They’re saying that you only got to power through family connections and that you don’t actually have the ability to run things.”

“And he has been attending industry events frequently, publicly declaring that he will fight against

you, and make you apologize.”

I nodded. “Got it.”

Soon, the whole industry knew.

Everyone was watching, waiting to see who would win between Hayden and me, the former couple.

Meanwhile, Nevaeh had completely dropped the act.

With her belly prominent, she linked arms with Hayden and appeared at galas, forums, and banquets as “Mrs. Robinson”, smiling arrogantly.

Someone asked me cautiously, “Ms. Spencer, given how things stand now… what’s your take?”

I only smiled. “No rush. The good show hasn’t even started yet.

Then came the day of the industry’s biggest bidding event.

I walked into the venue and ran straight into Hayden and Nevaeh.

Hayden was in a sharp suit, looking triumphant as if nothing had happened.

Nevaeh held his arm, her belly slightly rounded, staring at me with defensiveness and pride.

She spoke in a voice loud enough for everyone nearby to hear. “Poor Ms. Spencer. You can’t keep i man, and now you can’t even hold onto your company.”

She chuckled lightly. “Must be tiring working so hard as a single mom, isn’t it?”

I looked at her, smiled, and ignored her completely. I walked past her to greet others.

Nevaeh ground her teeth in humiliation at being dismissed.

Hayden stared at me with a complicated expression.

During a quiet moment, he stopped me.

“Blake.” His voice dropped. “You see how things are now. You can’t hold on.”

He paused, his tone softening. “If you regret it now, I might consider remarrying you.”

I said nothing.

He went on. “I can help you stabilize the company. You just have to accept Nevaeh and her child and stop making things difficult for her. Then we can go back to how things were.”

He looked at me as if offering a charity.

I let out a soft laugh and was about to speak when-

Bang!
