Chapter 404

ผู้เขียน: Aurora Wells
I swallowed hard. “I didn’t mean it like that…”

“Oh?” Miles leaned in closer, eyes narrowing with a teasing glint. “Then what did you mean? Thinking about returning the gifts?”

He took another step forward, eyes laced with warning. “What exactly are you planning?”

I shrank back. “Nothing! I’m not planning anything. I’m just… nervous. What if one day your mom doesn’t like me anymore?”

I’d already had more than enough of what it felt like to be hated by Julian’s birth mother.

Marsha might have come around, but this happiness felt too sudden, like a tornado sweeping me off my feet.

And now, I couldn’t help but feel a little afraid of losing it.

Miles wrapped an arm around my shoulders, locking eyes with me.

His deep gaze narrowed, as though he were reading every thought I tried to bury.

He studied me for a long time, then pulled me into his arms with a sigh. “That won’t happen. No one’s going to ruin this.”

I wanted to ask, “How do you know?”

But Miles was already ahead of me. “Because I

  • After Losing My Memory, I Divorced the Regretful CEO   Chapter 410

    It wasn’t until that moment that Chloe finally glanced back at the screen.The second she saw it, she let out a high-pitched scream and leapt up from the piano bench.That’s when it really began.One by one, screenshots of chat messages lit up the massive screen, along with audio recordings."Baby, I miss you so much...""When are we seeing each other again? I think about you every night… I can’t sleep...""Julian and I haven’t had real feelings for a long time. He’s just a complete idiot, always chasing what he doesn’t have.""I know, right? I hate guys like Julian. So self-important. Such a fake.""Baby, don’t believe what people say online. The baby I was pregnant with... that was artificial insemination, okay?""Julian’s company is nothing. So stingy with gifts, it’s pathetic."More messages kept coming. The screen was relentless.The hall erupted, completely unhinged.Dolly and I both slapped our hands over our mouths to stifle our gasps. Around us, stunned classmates were murmuri

    We stepped into the concert hall and found our seats—third row from the front, surprisingly good spots.Dolly sat down uneasily, her eyes scanning the crowd.I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself.My head was a whirlwind of noise, like a dozen people arguing at once.To be honest, I hadn’t wanted to come. Not from the very beginning. But Chloe’s provocations had stirred my curiosity.And now, I looked around at a hall full of familiar and half-familiar faces, and I wished I could rewind time, drag myself back into my room, and stay there.Dolly had been studying the room for a while. Her voice trembled. “Eve... we’re screwed. So many people from Highridge. I think they all got comp tickets.”Old memories started crawling out of the corners of my mind, tightening in my chest.I swallowed hard. “Let’s leave during intermission. I really don’t want to be here to witness her moment of glory.”Dolly forced a smile. “Yeah... who cares about watching her bask in the spotlight. But wai

    Dolly had been ostracized back in college too, just for standing by me.“Oh wow, Felix Shaw? Tony King? You two showed up too?” came another familiar voice.We turned to see even more old classmates approaching from across the plaza.Dolly frowned and tugged my sleeve. “This is weird. Why are there so many people from school here? Did Chloe invite the entire alumni list just to make a scene?”I wasn’t sure. “Maybe we should just leave?”But Dolly shook her head. “Leave? Why should we? I want to see what kind of performance she thinks she can pull off.”She was clearly uneasy but still curious enough to stay and watch.Within thirty minutes, we realized something was definitely off.Most of the attendees were from Highridge University—some from our department, some from Julian’s, and even more from Chloe’s.Dolly was stunned. “Holy crap. How many invitations did Chloe send out? She must’ve gone through every graduating class from our old campus!”“She’s that desperate to be seen? Has sh

    The chat quickly turned into a chaotic mess of gossip and chatter. Chloe never reappeared, clearly playing up the mystery.I got bored and simply exited the group.Right then, a message popped up from Chloe’s alternate account:“Evelyn White, see? I can still make a comeback without Julian Moore.”I raised an eyebrow. “And what if there were no men? Could you still manage it?”Chloe replied, full of self-righteous confidence:“This world runs on men or women. That’s right, I won with a man. I’m not like you—born with a winning hand.”I typed back, “Well then, congratulations.”She didn’t reply.Suddenly, she sent over an invitation and added, “Come to my concert—on the house.”I asked, “Why not send one to Julian too?”There was a pause before she shot back, clearly rattled, “Evelyn, don’t get smug. Julian will come back to me eventually.”My brow creased.She still thought getting Julian would somehow prove she’d won. She didn’t realize I’d grown tired of that tired game long ago.I

    Dolly slapped her thigh. “I forgot to check her out!”She quickly opened the web and started scrolling. “Huh, Chloe hasn’t posted anything. What’s she been up to lately?”I didn’t even look up. “Probably recovering from her injury.”Dolly scoffed. “When she goes quiet, she’s definitely up to no good.”I thought for a second, then messaged Trey, who was also recuperating.Trey replied quickly: “Chloe? She’s been chatting with me non-stop. Keeps pestering me to get the concert venue sorted out.”I frowned. “Why are you still talking to her? I’m warning you, don’t you dare hurt Tina.”It took him a while before he replied again. “I won’t. That girl’s so stubborn. She wants me to join the army.”He added a half-laughing, half-crying emoji.I could already picture the look of despair on that spoiled brat’s face. Asking him to join the army? Might as well have Miles break his legs.Clearly, I was right. Tina’s feelings were one-sided.I typed, half amused, half exasperated: “And you’re stil

    I froze. “Where did he find outside help?”From what I knew, Julian’s funds were limited. Where could he possibly find enough capital support to go head-to-head with Miles?Richard’s tone turned cryptic. “I’m just giving you the heads-up. Pass the message to Miles.“My goal isn’t to see the two of you drag each other down. This kind of fight only weakens both sides.”I straightened. “Understood. Thank you, Mr. Moore.”He added, “Once this settles down, I’ll take you both out for a meal.”I asked, “Who’s ‘both’?”Richard chuckled. “You and Miles, of course. Who else? You think I’d invite Julian?”There was regret in his voice. “Julian should’ve treated you better from the beginning. If he had, Moore Group wouldn’t be in such chaos now—no trust, no direction. What a mess…”Then he ended the call.I sat there for a moment, then finally dialed Miles.After I relayed the message, he replied with a calm, indifferent “Mm.”I asked, “So… what now?”Miles gave a low laugh. “You don’t have to w
