After The 99Th Time, I Chose Divorce. 090
Loren's POV Killian turned and I shook my head. “I’ll check on her,” I said, “But you have to promise, no matter what, you won’t come downstairs.”“Loren –”“You want my forgiveness, right? Then listen to me.”His eyes softened. “Will you listen to me? Speak up.”“I’ll do whatever you say, Loren.”I smiled, “I’ll go check on our damsel in distress then.”I walked past him, jogging down the stairs back to the living room. When I arrived, I glanced around, frowning when I noticed who was lounging on the couch. Her eyes narrowed when she saw me and she sat up. “The one whom you’re looking for…?” I glanced around, “He’s not coming.”I smiled, “E for effort though; the scream was loud”I turned to leave when she started laughing.“Are you really getting carried away by these little wins?” The sound of her footsteps got closer, and she faced me. “Just because Killian defends and listens to you… you suddenly think you’re important to him?”She spun a pen between her fingers, “I’m not L

Loren’s POV The sound of the cello hit me before I realised Killian was playing. A lone tear rolled down my cheek and my hand curled around fistfuls of my dress. As the music played on, our eyes finally met, and I froze, recognizing the piece. It belonged to my mother. But it didn’t make me feel any better. I turned, walking away from him. I tried for days, reaching out to him again and again. Every single time, Killian Whitmore shut the door in my face. But the moment she asked — he obeyed her immediately. I kept walking till Rue’s laughter was louder than the music. I stopped in front of my old room and frowned, “Who are these suitcases for?”The maids bowed their heads. “Madame. She said she would be staying from now on.”I raised an eyebrow. “This is my room.” “That’s impossible.”I turned to see Rue leaning against the bannister. “Everything in this house, down to the clothes you’re currently wearing…” She stepped forward. “Belongs to me.” Our eyes met for a brief m

Loren's POV The woman sat at the table before turning to the board members, a lazy smile on her face as she spoke. “Now, let's get this meeting started, shall we?”One of the board members stood. “The clock has already struck 6 p.m! She signed the agreement herself. Nothing you do now can save her!”“And who said I wanted to save her?” She leaned forward. “Or better still, why would she need saving?”She got off and cornered the man to the wall. “If I were you...” She stopped. “No, I couldn’t be as incompetent as you.”“And I definitely wouldn’t need saving.” The man’s eyes widened. “And why would we need saving?”She stared at him for a moment before chuckling. “Edmund, show the men just how shaky the ground they’re standing on is.”A tall slender man approached and shoved a stack of files forward. “You’re looking at six to seven in prison? First, for fraud, then an illegal corporate coup, extortion, blackmail, intentional infliction of emotional distress —”The man who until a fe

Loren's POV I wiped my tears and snatched the document from her. I glanced through each page, my knees buckling as realisation sank in. Camille let out a sob. “The copy we sent and the one you signed were completely different. An insider must have switched them.”I stumbled back and stepped away from Killian when he tried to touch me. My chest tightened and the world around me started spinning. Camille wasn’t done. “Loren, they don’t just want your position,”I froze. Our eyes met. “They want your mother’s catalogues too.” My heart didn’t just sink, it fell and crashed at my feet. My mother’s catalogue? “If you can’t find a partner in twenty-four hours, they’ll take everything.”Camille hugged me. “I messed up, Loren. We did for Killian, to bring music back to him. We risked everything and we lost!”“I won’t let you lose, Loren,” Killian said, stepping forward.The warmth in his eyes was back, but somehow, every part of me felt cold. Realisation had probably hit him by no

Loren’s POV The next day, I took a cab straight to the conference hall. I didn’t want anyone, not even Nigel to follow me. Camille’s idea still had me rattled but as I clutched the share agreement I’d signed, all I could think about was Killian. I was doing it for him and if I had to sacrifice our love for his happiness, I would do it all over again. I stared ahead. I wanted things to happen differently but at this point, I was forced to do this. First Camille had to secure twenty percent shares so I had the power to make the announcement I was about to make. It put me on the board and gave me one shot at bringing music back to Killian. The car pulled to a halt and I got out, immediately surrounded by nosy reporters. The guards led me into the conference hall where all the other reporters were waiting. I remained standing for a moment, every fiber of my being filled with hesitation. However, as I thought of younger Killian’s smile, the path became clearer and I stood straigh

Loren's POV I spent the entire drive home furiously wiping my tears. As I leaned against the door, watching the streets blur, Killian’s words echoed in my head.The image of him walking away, and my repeated attempts to reach out, haunted me. I held back a sob, allowing the tears to fall as I glanced at my vacant finger. I wasn’t sure what went wrong, but I knew Killian was hurting. And it was all because of me. I wrapped my arm around my torso; The one person who had only ever given me happiness — I had hurt that person. I caught Nigel’s gaze from the driver’s mirror. “Time often helps,” he said, keeping his gaze on the road. “Hopefully.”The call pulled to a halt inside the estate and I stepped out, rushing up the stairs toward my old bedroom. I instructed the guards to break down the door. They nervously glanced at each other for a moment before breaking it. I entered and despite being in a vacant room, I was reliving all the moments. When Killian had gifted me the cello,
