Rewriting My Heart's Fate

Chapter 487

I laughed through my tears and punched Ethan in the arm. "You jerk! You had me worried for nothing!"

He grinned, pulled me in, and kissed my forehead. "Don't worry. As long as I'm here, no one's messing with you. You're mine."

Just when Holden and Alexander were acting all cocky and getting ready for a big public takeover of Grayson Group, Illumia Group swooped in out of nowhere and shook things up in the business world.

Those big clients Holden and Alexander had managed to poach all switched sides and came to Illumia Group. The top talents-now lured in by Ethan's fat paychecks-jumped on board as part of Illumia Group's core team. Holden and Alexander never saw it coming. Everything they'd worked so hard for just disappeared in an instant. They clenched their jaws in rage, ready to rip Ethan apart.

To make things worse, the media did a complete 180. Reporters who used to go after Ethan were now blasting Holden and Alexander for their shady moves in article after article, exposing every crooked deal for everyone to see.

Soon, Ethan, who always seemed so distant and untouchable, became a legend a role model everyone admired. Illumia Group's name spread everywhere, while Holden and Alexander ended up like rats everyone wanted to stomp on. I saw it all unfold and felt a rush of pure joy. Ethan hadn't let me down. He'd planned all this from the start. That night, we spent hours in bed, pouring out all our love and longing in the purest way.

Meanwhile, Holden and Alexander weren't just sitting idly by. They weren't about to give up after Ethan caught them off guard, so they went straight to Vivian, their last-ditch effort.

"Please, Vivian, help us," Alexander begged. "If you can get Ethan to change his mind, I'll make sure your wedding's huge. You'll be marrying like a queen!"

and Alexander shared a look when things went according to plan. They'd certainly take Ethan down a notch with Vivian on their side. "When have we ever gone back on our word?" Holden flashed a saintly smile. "Relax. Once everything's settled, we'll make good on our word." The three of them teamed up to devise
