Too Late To Get Me Back, Husband
"You never loved me, Gerald. You only loved the version of me that suffered for you."
For years, Lara devoted everything to her marriage, but when she finally discovers she's pregnant— the miracle she had prayed for after years of heartbreak— she also receives devastating news: she has lung cancer and only six months left to live.
Before she can tell Gerald the truth, his first love, Ria, returns from abroad and walks right back into their lives, turning Gerald against her and worse, hurting her till she lost her baby.
Lara expects her husband to stand by her. Instead, Gerald accuses her of hurting Ria and refuses to believe she was ever pregnant or dying.
Betrayed by the man she loved most, Lara signs the divorce papers and disappears from his life with the help of her best friend, Bryan, who was also in love with her.
He stays beside her through painful treatments, shattered dreams, and countless nights when she thought she won't survive.
But three years later, Lara returns. She's alive, stronger and no longer the woman Gerald once left behind.
Now a successful businesswoman with wealth and influence beyond imagination, she catches Gerald's attention for all the wrong reasons. And he refuses to accept that he isn't her husband anymore.
Bryan, the man who loved her when she had nothing, stands by her side as her pretend husband. Gerald fights to get back his wife who he almost lost due to his carelessness.
As Ria schemes to destroy her once again, Lara must choose between the past that nearly killed her and the man who helped her live.
This time, she won't be the one begging for

Chapter: WHERE'S SHE?!RIA'S POVIt had been two days. Two fucking days, and Gerald hadn't come home!"He couldn't be with that bitch, right?" I bit my nail hard, my feet tapping against the floor repeatedly. My eyes drifted to the vanity mirror, and I saw how dark the circles beneath them had become and how messy the room was. I had been waiting for him ever since the next day to apologize for everything I had said.I had thought I was overthinking things and that Gerald would never return to her. He had always picked me instead of her. Even when she had been bleeding to death, he had chosen me!This time wouldn't be any different, or so I had thought. But to my dismay, he wasn't around. I texted him repeatedly and even called him, but he never answered. I had started thinking something terrible had happened to him..."No... no." I gripped my hair, my eyes darting around the room. "Staying in here won't give me the answer I'm looking for."I shot to my feet, quickly changed into a fresh set of clothes, and

Chapter: Dangerous... Thoughts?Lara's POV He stared at me. “What is it?” “Um…” I was about to reply when my phone buzzed. “Excuse me.” I quickly left the kitchen and went upstairs. My eyes remained fixed on my phone, my heart racing wildly. I could have answered it in front of him. God. What’s wrong with me? I checked the message and frowned when I saw it was from Gerald, asking if I had gotten home safely. I stared at the message for a few seconds before pressing the power button and switching off my phone. “He still hasn’t gotten the fact that this is none of his concern,” I cursed under my breath before turning around to return to the kitchen. The aroma of dinner greeted me before I even stepped inside, and my stomach immediately reminded me that I had barely eaten all day. Bryan stood with his back to me, casually picking up a plate. His strong forearms glistened faintly with sweat from the heat filling the kitchen. He glanced over his shoulder the moment he heard my footsteps and smiled. “There you a

Chapter: Long Day?Lara's POVThe first week nearly broke me.Running one company had always demanded everything I had. Running two at the same time felt like torture but I loved every second of it.By Monday morning, my schedule had become a blur of board meetings, investor calls, strategy sessions, and endless reports waiting for my approval. Every hour brought another decision that only I could make. Every department seemed to need something from me.The merger was moving faster than anyone had expected.People called it impossible only a few weeks ago.Now it was happening.I walked from one conference room to another, answering questions before they were fully asked. Financial projections, staffing plans, marketing campaigns, legal reviews, expansion proposals. One document barely left my desk before another replaced it.Somewhere along the way, I stopped noticing how exhausted I was. Success had a strange way of making fatigue feel worthwhile.By Wednesday, the media had already begun following ev

Chapter: You Built Everything.LARA'S POVI arrived at the company fifteen minutes before the meeting was scheduled to begin.My legal team was already waiting inside the conference room.The moment I walked in, everyone rose to their feet."Good morning, Ms. Robert," one of the attorneys greeted me."Good morning," I replied as I took my seat at the head of the table. I glanced at the stack of folders in front of me before looking back at him. "Is everything ready?""Yes," he answered with a nod. "The final restructuring agreement has been reviewed three times.

Chapter: JEALOUSY.GERALD'S POVI stared at Ria, stunned by the words that had just left her mouth. For a long moment, I simply looked at her, wondering if I had heard her correctly. The woman standing before me was breathing hard, her chest rising and falling rapidly as she glared at me with eyes filled with a rage I hadn't seen before."If you think this is over, Gerald, then you are absolutely wrong. If you are cheating on me with that stupid bitch, Lara, I will end your life."A headache throbbed behind my eyes.It had already been a long day. I had spent hours trying to keep Stone Holdings from sinking, swallowing every ounce of pride I had left just to walk into Lara's office and ask for help. The last thing I wanted was to come home to another argument.I rubbed my forehead and released a weary sigh. "Are you done?""So that's all you have to say?" she demanded, her voice climbing another octave. "You disappear the entire day, stroll into this house after eleven and expect me to pretend nothing h
