After The 99Th Time, I Chose Divorce. 088
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,

Loren's POV “Over here, Mrs Whitmore!” a reporter yelled, positioning their cameras to take the millionth photo. The cameras continued flashing, almost blindly as they dominated the entire space. The guests were grinning, and Killian pulled me closer. He had just announced me as the face of Whitmore. The banquet we worked so hard for was almost done. But a question was still burning at the back of my mind. Why did Killian get so upset over the room? He fired all the maids before dawn and even Nigel was instructed to leave for a few days. Pilar seemed equally upset. Their reactions were so heavy that I couldn’t bring myself to announce I went there. And maybe part of me wanted to believe it was about another room. “What's wrong, Loren?” Killian murmured, “Do you want us to stop?” Our eyes locked and I shook my head turning to the camera. While the thoughts plagued me, I became even more determined to surprise Killian. Perhaps playing the Cello would give him some pe

Loren’s POVI blinked away tears as I stared at Killian; he still had the ring open. I covered my face, running my hands through my hair as a sob racked through me. I wasn’t sure I could remember the last time anyone put so much effort into me, or wanted to know me. I..“Loren,” he said, “Are you okay?”I smiled through watery tears and nodded, offering my hand for the ring. Killian accepted my hand with reverence, slipping the stoned diamond onto it. He kissed my hand, pressing it against his cheek as he shut his eyes as if to sink into the moment. I leaned closer, our noses brushing. Just as I attempted to capture his lips in line, the sound of loud clapping filled the rooftop. We pulled apart to see a furious Pilar storming forward. She had confetti in her hair and looked like she had been run over by a car and survived with the sole intention of combusting in front of us. “Great, great, just great!” She snapped. “I’m down here, breaking my back to plan a banquet for the c
