“I see.” Veronica’s tone remained businesslike. “I appreciate your assistance, Mr. Bell.”

Cullen signaled to Frank. “Please escort Mr. Bell to the exit.”

Frank guided Leon into the executive conference room where Cullen waited. The two men exchanged a firm handshake before settling into their respective seats.

Cullen stared at his phone screen for a long moment before speaking. “Your mother isn’t taking my calls either.”

“She’s probably swamped with work and missed it.” There had to be a reasonable explanation. Veronica would never ignore Cullen’s calls under normal circumstances.

During an afternoon strategy session with Dario, his phone interrupted their

conversation with an unexpected call. Dario examined the caller identification with visible confusion.

The ski slopes that usually thrilled her felt flat and uninspiring without her preferred companion. Her enthusiasm evaporated quickly, and she requested to return home within hours.

Cullen studied her signature with an unreadable expression before redirecting his attention to Leon for their remaining business discussions.

Following his hospital obligations, Cullen made his way to Dennis Group headquarters.

Given such promising prospects, potential collaborators would inevitably begin

circling DataPulse like sharks sensing opportunity.

“Hospital, then the office.” Cullen’s finger gently flicked her forehead in an affectionate gesture. “Behave yourself while I’m gone.”

Leon acknowledged with a professional nod. “Completely understood.”

Cullen’s hands closed around the documents.

Upon departing Dennis Group’s offices, Leon immediately contacted Veronica to provide a comprehensive update on the meeting’s outcome.

Cullen remained silent as Frank approached with an announcement. “Mr. Bell has

arrived for your appointment.”

Nate had made a special weekend trip to witness whether Veronica would follow through with her threat to sign the papers. The sight of the official documents made him lean forward eagerly. Upon spotting Veronica’s unmistakable signature, his voice rose in genuine shock. “She went through with it?”

“Fine.”

The call went straight to silence as Veronica declined it immediately.

Cullen reached for his phone without hesitation and dialed Veronica’s number.

“That entirely depends on Mr. Dennis’s efficiency in handling the transfers.”

“Send him up immediately.” Cullen instructed.

Professional networks ensured that industry leaders maintained each other’s contact information despite infrequent direct communication.

He extended the phone so she could see the display. “Maverick Harris is calling.”

Verónica noticed his puzzled expression. “Something troubling you?”

The official announcements hadn’t even been released to the public, yet Maverick had already positioned himself to make contact.

Her voice carried a note of impatience. “What kind of timeline are we looking at?”

As their meeting approached its conclusion, Cullen addressed the practical concerns. “The asset division involves substantial complexity – multiple properties, corporate shareholdings, investment portfolios. I’ll require adequate time to execute the necessary legal transfers. You’ll hear from me once everything is properly arranged.”

“Perhaps.” Cullen slipped into his tailored suit jacket and grabbed his black overcoat from the chair. “I have business to attend to. Take the security detail if you decide to

leave the house.”

Leon wasted no time on pleasantries. He retrieved the divorce papers from the previous day’s signing session and placed them directly in front of Cullen.

Maverick’s sudden outreach defied all logical expectations. Dario accepted the call with considerable skepticism.
