last update Last Updated: 2026-01-07 05:14:12

Aurelia’s POV

I took my phone and went straight to Julien's office. The moment I stepped into his office, he looked up from his desk, and his expression shifted instantly. He could always tell when something was off.

“Baby, what’s wrong?” he asked, already rising from his seat.

My hands trembled as I held out my phone. “It was Grant,” I said, my voice shaking.

His brows furrowed. “What do you mean, it was Grant?”

I swallowed hard, my heart pounding so fast it almost drowned my words. “The pictures. The scandal. The leak, it was him, Julien. He’s the one who released them.”

Julien’s jaw tightened, his face turning cold. “I suspected as much,” he muttered.

“The photo from the hotel…” I took a breath, my throat dry. “That was from our second anniversary at Stonecold Hotel. That night, I was drunk, upset, and he…” I couldn’t finish the sentence.

Julien walked around the desk. “Then we need evidence, baby. Solid proof. If we can link this back to him, we can destroy his credibility complet

  • After Divorce, My Boss Made Me His Obsession    Chapter 123: Five Years And Fifty Million Scars

    Aurelia’s POVBetween the court preparations and Cassia’s wedding plans, life became a whirlwind of emotions, papers, fabrics, and flower samples all blending into one chaotic harmony.Meanwhile, Oliver had settled into a rhythm that amazed me.The chauffeur handled his drop-offs and pickups from school, but one day, I ran late. I came home, heart pounding with guilt, only to find the house faintly smelling of toast and soap.Oliver had taken the spare key from the flower vase, let himself in, showered, folded his clothes into the laundry basket, made toast, and was now sitting at the dining table, brow furrowed, tongue slightly out as he solved his math homework.I stood there for a long moment, just watching him. My little boy, the same one Grant had tried to twist into his reflection, was now humming softly to himself.“Mom?” he said, catching me staring.I blinked and smiled, “You’ve grown too fast.”He grinned.From that day, I made small changes around the house, things to make

    Aurelia’s POVThe next morning, the air felt different, lighter, clearer. For the first time in weeks, I woke up without dread pressing on my chest.The chauffeur arrived, his usual polite smile in place. Oliver was clutching his lunchbox, chattering about a school project.“You’ll no longer be taking him to his father’s house,” I said firmly.“Yes, ma’am. Mr. Julien already informed me,” he replied with a respectful nod.I smiled, relief washing through me. “Thank you. I’ll be picking him up myself today.”“Yes, ma’am.”As they drove off, I stood outside for a second, watching the car disappear down the street. At work, the hours blurred by. Before closing, I texted Julien:‘I’m heading to Grant’s place to get Oliver’s things.’His reply came almost instantly.> ‘You’re not going alone. I’ll be right behind you.’A smile tugged at my lips. Of course he’d say that.When I told Cassia, she dropped her pen and grabbed her bag. “Oh, no way! You’re not having all the fun without me.”By

    Aurelia’s POVI forced a trembling smile, my eyes already misty as I walked up to Grant. The moment he saw me, his expression softened, but only for a second before the usual smugness crept back in.“Hey,” he said casually, pulling me into a brief hug that felt more like a performance than comfort.“Thank you for agreeing to meet me,” I murmured, my voice low and tired as I sat down. I placed my phone on the table, screen unlocked, camera facing down, just enough for him to notice that I was recording. He looked at it, before sitting.“Of course,” he said, leaning back. “You want anything?”I shook my head and sniffled softly. “No, I’m fine.”“Poor thing,” he said with a mock pout, shaking his head. I hesitated, playing with the edge of my napkin. “Do you… do you still want us to work this out?”He clicked his tongue and leaned forward, resting his elbows on the table. The shift in his tone was immediate, arrogant, entitled, familiar.“You’ll need to stop this whole power woman thin

    Aurelia’s POVThe next day at the office, everyone gathered around Cassia like she was the sunshine they’d missed. Laughter filled the hallway, with teasing questions about the engagement ring that was still trending online.When she finally entered my office, she shut the door behind her.“I told Lawrence everything. He said to let him know once you’ve got the evidence,” she said, leaning on my desk.“Oh? I was hoping Julien would use his lawyers,” I replied.“Why?” she asked.“You guys should be focused on the wedding, not lawsuits. From what I see, Julien’s probably going to want to settle down soon,” I said teasingly.Cassia laughed, tucking her hair behind her ear. “Please, even if it’s on the wedding day, we’ll still go to court if we have to. Most of the wedding prep is being handled by his family anyway, so don’t worry.”I smiled, warmth blooming in my chest. “Thank you. It’ll be really nice to have him represent me. He’s a good lawyer.”“The devil’s advocate for a reason,” sh

    Aurelia’s POVSleep refused to come. My body felt alive, humming with leftover joy, the proposal, the gifts, the laughter, everything. It was like happiness had moved into my bloodstream and was refusing to let go.I turned slightly and found Julien watching me in the dim glow from the bedside lamp. His hair was tousled, his eyes soft and curious.“You said Lawrence is their only child?” he asked, voice low and lazy.“Yes,” I said, brushing my fingers over his chest absentmindedly. “But he grew up surrounded by cousins, so he never really felt alone.”Julien nodded, his thumb tracing idle circles on my arm. “It’s obvious his parents love children. You can tell from the gifts they gave.”“I know, right?” I said, smiling at the thought. “Cassia’s future kids are going to be so spoiled.”He smiled. I turned my head to look at him properly. “Actually… her mother-in-law reminds me of you.”“Me?” He looked adorably confused.“Yes,” I said softly. “She’s warm, kind, thoughtful… the way she
