Shattered Vows: Call Me Auntie Now novel Chapter 197

News of the new Hayes Group's impending IPO dominated the front pages of every major financial media outlet.

The spin-off of the new entity, focusing entirely on the high-end AI sector, was a brilliantly targeted move with limitless potential.

Armed with exclusive AI algorithm patents, industry analysts were aggressively bullish, predicting the company's valuation would smash through the hundred-billion-dollar mark on opening day.

Furthermore, under Dante Hayes's visionary and cutthroat leadership, the cross-industry integration had moved from concept to reality in just two years. His towering reputation in the industry had government entities, corporate giants, and foreign investors scrambling for a piece of the pie.

At that moment, inside the penthouse office of the Hayes headquarters, a massive floor-to-ceiling screen continuously scrolled through the latest financial broadcasts.

Dante stared at the endless stream of news praising his company and his own genius, his gaze completely detached.

He leaned back in his leather executive chair, idly spinning a fountain pen between his fingers as his mind raced through post-IPO strategies.

He was no longer a rookie navigating the corporate world; the more successful and celebrated he became, the colder and more calculating his mindset grew.

Besides, the mess of his divorce with Quinn Yates still gnawed at him, overshadowing any fleeting sense of triumph with a suffocating wave of frustration.

Silas Vance stood quietly to the side, not daring to utter a word. Having worked for Dante for years, a single glance was all it took to read his boss's mood.

And today, his boss was clearly in a foul temper.

"Any movements on her end?"

Silas instantly knew he was asking about Quinn.

"Mr. Hayes, she's been busy at the Sapphire Lake studio for the past two days. Other than the studio and Lunas Crest, her routine has been completely normal."

Silas paused, carefully weighing his next words before lowering his voice.

"However... Tara Moore has been quietly reaching out to top-tier divorce lawyers. They've practically locked down Clarence Chambers from Shorehaven."

"A top-tier divorce lawyer?"

Dante slowly repeated the words, his voice so dangerously soft it made the hair on the back of Silas's neck stand up.
