Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 276

Ding.

The elevator doors slid open on the first floor, right in the middle of the after-work rush. People flowed through the lobby, everyone in a hurry to get home.

But as soon as he stepped out—tall, straight-backed, and radiating authority—the whole room seemed to freeze. For a split second, it felt like even the air itself stopped moving.

Then came the wave of hushed gasps.

“Oh my god, that’s Mr. Nelson!”

“No way. I’ve been at Nelson Corporation for three years and this is the first time I’ve seen him in person!”

“Shut up, my legs are shaking so bad I can barely stand…”

“That’s weird, isn’t it? Mr. Nelson is always so mysterious. Why would he be walking through the lobby right now?”

The chatter died instantly.

Everyone watched as the legendary Mr. Nelson walked straight to the lounge area. He stopped right next to a woman who was sound asleep on the couch.

The tension in the air was almost electric.

James paused for a couple of seconds, then calmly undid his suit jacket, slipped it off, and draped it carefully over her shoulders.

Then, to everyone’s shock, he sat down on the couch across from her, settling in like he wasn’t in a rush to go anywhere.

The crowd lost it.

People clapped their hands over their mouths, trying not to scream. Excited whispers bounced around the lobby.

“Who is she?!”

“She must be someone insanely special. Mr. Nelson himself came down to meet her… and put his jacket on her! Is she the legendary Mrs. Nelson? The one everyone’s always talking about?”

“It has to be! No one else would get that kind of treatment!”

“Oh my god, this is like a real-life romance drama—my heart can’t take it!”

Someone couldn’t help but sneak a photo, but before they could even lower their phone, a group of security guards appeared out of nowhere.

“Excuse me, sir, please delete that picture.”

“And everyone, the workday’s over. Please leave the building now.”

That was all the confirmation anyone needed. The crowd left, faces lit up with excitement, each person sneaking one last look as they headed out the door.
