After My Last Breath Chapter 62
They have nothing to say. Nothing at all.And that’s what hurts the most—the fact that they know they’ve been unfair and still chose to do nothing.I let out a soft scoff, not even able to look at her now. “Anyway, if this is what you invited me here for, I should apologize for taking up your precious time. I’ll be leaving now.”I barely get up from the chair when Dad hurls his fork at me. “You—”I shut my eyes, too late to avoid the hit. It strikes my forehead, the pain sharp enough to tell me it’ll leave a mark.“You’re not going anywhere,” he snaps, letting out a harsh breath. “Fine. You want the truth? Here it is. A month ago, on my word, Damon placed an order for his latest equipment with Alan & Sons. They cleared the initial tests without a problem. But now I’ve learned that instead of maintaining the standard, they delivered subpar equipment. Damon thinks it’s our doing—that I took a cut from the deal—and if I don’t give him a proper explanation by tomorrow, he’ll sever all bus

[Elara]The fact that I’ve barely seen my parents in the past five years makes me wary of their invitation now.What do they want? Why would they suddenly invite me over? What is their purpose? And so on and on. Questions like these keep bugging me even after I pull the car into the driveway of the Graham mansion.I’ll be honest—I’m nervous. It has been five years, after all. I haven’t seen them. Not face-to-face. The only times they contacted me in the past were through calls and texts, and those were always to remind me of the projects they wanted Damon to invest in.But the reason they’ve invited me over today—making an exception—makes me wonder what this could really be about.I loosen my grip around the steering wheel, swallow my nervousness, and step out as slowly as possible.The moment I step inside the Graham mansion, I’m met with the same cold, eerie atmosphere that has always greeted me in the past. It reminds me of those days when coming home always felt like the least fav

His calm, practical presence reassures me in a way I’ve never felt before.Whenever I felt the way I did just now, my parents called it overreacting. Hannah mocked me for it. Damon brushed it off, labeling me a scaredy cat. No one ever tried to understand why I was like this. No one asked. No one questioned.As if this was something I chose. As if I enjoyed living like this.I don’t think anyone does.“So,” he says, glancing at the bat with a serious look that doesn’t quite hide the amusement in his eyes, “were you actually planning to swing if things went south?”If my face was hot earlier, it’s on fire now.I grip the bat tighter—not because I’m planning to hit someone, but because I’m wondering if I can somehow make it disappear.“Of course not,” I say. But he isn’t wrong. If the people in the car had tried something funny, I would have swung it, consequences be damned. “It’s just for the scare.”The corner of his lips tips up, as if he doesn’t quite believe me—but won’t push it ei

[Elara]“No. This isn’t right.” I shake my head, lifting my phone to call Dr. Wolfe again.It was wrong to call him in the first place. What was I even expecting him to do?Come running and help me with my situation?What a joke.My problems aren’t his responsibility to solve. If anything, Damon should be the one here. We might be getting divorced, but I’m still his wife. And if I’m expected to bear his unpredictable and unreasonable behavior all this time, he should have no problem handling mine.Once my mind is made up, I call him instead.At first, he doesn’t pick up. I almost give up on the idea that he would ever take my calls or messages seriously.But stubborn as I am, I call again. And again. And again—until he finally answers.“Will you stop being so annoying?” he snaps, keeping his voice low. “What’s the matter?”“There’s a car outside my place,” I say. “It’s been here for hours. I don’t feel very comfortable.”“Then call the bloody cops!”“Cops?” Doesn’t he know I can’t cal

[Griffin]When Elara calls, I’m in the middle of a video conference.I find it strange. It’s not often that she calls me.At first, I try to ignore it. I keep my eyes on the screen, nodding at the discussion happening in front of me. It would be wildly inappropriate to interrupt a meeting like this—to ask some of the world’s most distinguished figures in the medical field to pause while I take a personal call.But the longer I wait, the more uncomfortable I start to feel. My heart begins to beat faster and harder, and somewhere in between, my palms grow sweaty.An anxiety like never before twists in my chest, and before I know it, I’m grabbing my phone and turning to the screen. “I’ll be right back.”Everything stops. Everyone wait.“Dr. Wolfe,” her voice comes through, slightly shaken—though anyone not listening carefully might miss it entirely. “I… I hope I didn’t interrupt anything.”“Not at all,” I say, turning away from the laptop and the faces waiting for me. “So, what is it? Is

[Damon]I watch Elara walk out of the office.And the moment she’s out of sight, I scowl and kick the desk with all I have.“Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!”I hiss through my teeth, hopping back and clutching my foot like an idiot.“Damn it,” I mutter, sinking into the chair behind my desk.I can’t believe she said those things to me.And the worst part is that I can’t even tell whether her criticisms were genuine—or just another carefully spun lie, thrown in my face to make me feel guilty.I’m not oblivious to the time I’ve missed with Cora. I know I haven’t always been there. But it can’t be that bad—can it? I work every day to keep this company running. I do whatever it takes to make sure the Blackwoods never have to face hard times. Yes, I’m busy. Yes, I spend more time at the office than at home. But did she really have to paint it as something so unforgivable?Couldn’t she have been more understanding of what I deal with every day as the one in charge? Where is the Elara who used to support
