Chapter 101
Louisa’y lips curted into an enigmatic smile. Even now, you’re still fighting so desperately? For a man, you embezzled company funds, frequented casinos, spent recklessly, attempted murder, and destroyed evidence. You’ve thrown away your entire promising future.
She paused for effect. “You never realized that the man you loved so deeply was actually someone else’s husband, did you?”
“What? With those words, Judith was stunned. Everyone present was shocked as well. No one expected another twist to the story.
Louisa clapped her hands and said, “Come in!”
As she spoke, a woman’s figure walked into everyone’s view.
“It’s Lena!”
Many people present were Aurora Media Group employees who recognized Lena. She and Louisa had both escaped from the fire. At this moment, she looked equally disheveled, but her eyes showed unprecedented clarity.
She stood before everyone and spoke clearly, “I am Lena Wilson, Financial Manager of Aurora Media Group. I can testify that Judith and Patrick misappropriated company funds and falsified accounts. All the embezzled money was lost by them in casinos. When Ms. Forbes came to investigate, they feared exposure, locked us in a room, and set it on fire to silence us.”
Her final sentence carried intense hatred, directed at the man writhing on the floor–Patrick. In that moment when she was about to be consumed by flames, watching him leave without looking back, she had truly awakened.
Louisa was right. This Patrick wasn’t worth her repeated compromises. Now she felt no pity for him, not a trace of love, only hatred.
Someone asked in confusion, “If you were locked in, how did you escape?”
Lena didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she looked toward Louisa, and also at the distinguished, noble man standing beside her.
Understanding dawned in her heart. “You must be Mr. Tudor?”
Julian nodded coldly.
Lena looked back at Louisa, silently smiling at her–the kind of smile shared between people who had faced death together, requiring no
explanation.
Then, she slowly explained, “At that moment, when our only escape route was cut off by fire and there was absolutely no way out, I was
completely stunned. I never imagined the man I loved, the father of my child, would leave me to die.
“I truly thought I was going to die. Ms. Forbes kept comforting me, making me believe we wouldn’t die. She said if we escaped, Mr. Tudor
would definitely come save us.

attempted me to cover their tracks.
Even my shocking was that Lasina had been right. Patrick was already married when he was with fudith. He had a wife and child–the Lena standing before them. The couple had been deceiving Judith right under her nose. It was surreal.
Judith couldn’t utter a single word. It she had been struggling desperately before, Lena’s appearance was the final Hammer Birm completely shattering her remaining hope.
This final strike had left her completely dazed. Ashen faced, she collapsed onto the floor.
Julian had no interest in other people’s affairs. In this moment, he looked down at Louisa beside him, thinking of how she had been locked in a burning building, jumped into the sea to survive, and endured a series of heart–stopping experiences before finally returning
to his side.
He couldn’t describe this feeling of losing and regaining something precious. In the end, he simply pulled her gently into his arms.
But his gaze toward Judith was ice–cold, carrying murderous intent. “Call the police,” he commanded coldly.
Everyone present rushed to execute his order, unanimously pulling out their phones to call the authorities. Everything had finally been
settled.
On the phone, William, who had been listening silently throughout, finally spoke, “Ms. Forbes, you’re very intelligent and brave.”
Entering the tiger’s den alone, using her intelligence to uncover the truth, remaining calm in the face of death, and even turning an opponent to her side–courageous and resourceful–truly talented.
He added, “Being just a small project manager is a waste of your talents. I’ve decided your probation period is over early. Welcome officially to the Tudor Group,”
Praise directly from the Chairman! Everyone looked at Louisa with envy and jealousy. She was too fortunate. Who remembered that she had earned all this by risking her life?
Louisa responded with appropriate modesty, “Thank you for your praise, Chairman.”
William acknowledged her response, then said to Julian, “Julian, now that everything is clear, handle it as you see fit. Don’t be soft-
hearted,
“Understood.” Julian responded coldly.
William then ended the call. Everything was finally over.
