She's Too Busy Winning to Watch Him Cry novel Chapter 515

During a board meeting, Rowan received a series of photos from his security detail.

They were taken from a distance, capturing Lyra swallowing a pill. The clearest shot was of a crumpled pink contraceptive box sitting near the top of a trash can—the exact box she had secretly thrown away after taking her dose.

Reading through the messages in the middle of the meeting, Rowan actually smiled. Then, with a sudden, violent sweep of his arm, he sent every file and tablet on the desk crashing to the floor.

The executive who had been presenting had initially thought the boss's rare smile meant his proposal was brilliant.

A second later, the man's face drained of all color, pure terror setting in.

Everyone knew Rowan was a master of restraint. He was cold, calculating, and never let his emotions show. To see him snap so violently was something no one in the room had witnessed in all their years at Jameson Group.

A deathly silence instantly blanketed the conference room. You could hear a pin drop. No one dared to even breathe too loudly.

After a long, suffocating moment, Rowan pinched the bridge of his nose, his voice devoid of any warmth. "Continue."

The executive stammered as he desperately tried to get back on track.

After a few minutes of the presentation, Rowan turned his head to Wesley standing by his side. "What's left on the schedule for today?"

Wesley quickly flipped through his tablet. "Two international video conferences, a private negotiation with overseas investors, the product pricing review, the real estate development panel, an exclusive industry summit, and tonight there's..."

"Cancel everything for tonight."

They didn't bother keeping their voices down. The executives sitting nearby heard every word, exchanging nervous, bewildered glances. None of them had any idea what could have possibly provoked such terrifying fury from their usually unflappable boss.

But Wesley knew exactly what was going on. It was crystal clear.

Lyra Fairchild was playing with fire again.
