Natalie and Jake thought they had finally put the past behind them, but Adrian's appeal has thrown them back into turmoil. With the divorce settlement upheld, Natalie is determined to move on and focus on her new life with Jake. However, Adrian is not ready to give up so easily.
Meanwhile, Adrian's tech empire is facing a crisis. A major shareholder is demanding his resignation, and the company's stock price is plummeting. In an attempt to save his company, Adrian decides to hold a shareholder meeting to address the concerns.
Natalie, who still owns a significant portion of the company's stock, decides to attend the meeting. She wants to see Adrian face the music and hold him accountable for his actions. When she arrives at the meeting, she is shocked to see Elise there as well.
The shareholder meeting quickly turns into a disaster. Adrian is unable to answer the shareholders' questions, and his attempts to defend himself only make things worse. Elise, on the other hand, takes the opportunity to attack Natalie, accusing her of being a gold digger and a homewrecker.
The situation escalates when a group of angry shareholders start to shout and throw things. Natalie is caught in the middle of the chaos and is nearly hit by a flying object. Jake, who is also at the meeting, rushes to her side and protects her from harm.
In the end, the shareholder meeting is a complete failure. Adrian is forced to step down as CEO, and the company is left in shambles. Natalie, meanwhile, realizes that she can no longer ignore the impact that Adrian's actions have had on her life and the lives of those around her.
She decides to take a stand and use her voice to speak out against injustice. With Jake's support, she starts a campaign to raise awareness about the issue of infidelity and the damage it can cause. Together, they hope to make a difference and help others who have been through similar experiences.
Chapter Summary: Adrian's appeal leads to a shareholder meeting disaster, forcing him to step down as CEO. Natalie, determined to move on, decides to take a stand and speak out against infidelity with Jake's support.
