After The 99Th Time, I Chose Divorce. 097
Loren’s POV When we arrived at the company, Killian signed the documents without a second thought and handed me the pen. We’d been here for almost an hour. Why hadn’t his phone beeped yet? He should have gotten the evidence from Pilar. She said he would receive it before we signed the papers. But Killian had already signed. “Why are you hesitating, Loren?” Killian spoke, “Sign it already.”Had something gone wrong? “Sorry, I need to make a call.”Killian held me back. “Loren, what's really going on?” he asked, “First, you wanted the shares and now, you’re backing out at the last minute.”“Have you spoken to Pilar today?” I blurted before stopping myself. “He hasn’t, but I have.”My heart stopped as I turned to see Rue standing at the door. “She's doing great,” Rue added with a smile. No, no, no. “What's the hold-up? Hasn’t the new CEO of Whitmore Group signed the papers?”Until this morning, she didn’t want the signing to happen…And what about Pilar? Had Rue done somethi

Loren's POV “Who were you talking to?” Killian said, reaching for the phone but I hid it behind my back. My heart was pounding in my chest — how much had he heard? He took several steps closer until I was pressed against the wall. He leaned down, “Loren, I know you’re hiding something.”“You were talking about some plan?” He said, “What plan was it?”“Loren, I don’t know what’s going on, but if you tell me everything right now, I’ll do whatever it takes to fix it.” he tucked my hair behind my ear. “Forget the shares, I would give you my life if you asked. I told you before, you’re the only other person I trust to manage my father’s company.”His eyes softened. “And if this is indeed you, then that’s fine too.”My eyes widened at his words and in that moment, I wanted to tell him the entire truth. I wanted to pour my entire heart out to him– Tell him I loved him and Rue was behind everything, But as I glanced at the cameras in the room, I knew if Rue could be watching the terrace,

Killian turned me around and pulled me into a hug. I pulled away but he didn’t let go. “This isn’t you,” he announced. “Something happened, didn’t it?”“You are being compelled to do this, aren’t you?” He asked. “My Loren is neither greedy nor would she say such things. Just tell me, Loren. We’ve already faced so much. We can face this too!”“Besides I offered you my shares earlier. I offered you 20% and you rejected it!”“Because it wasn’t enough!” I pushed him and held back a gasp as he landed on the ground. I stared everywhere but at him. “25% to tolerate you? That’s never gonna be enough!”“Loren!”We turned to see Rue. Her eyes flared with fury as she pushed me and helped Killian up. Killian moved away from her. “Loren, you… Let’s just calm down for a moment.”“You’re so greedy. Just 70% and you can’t do it?!”Even if someone had asked for just one of my mother’s notes, I would have died inside. I could still remember when Asher broke her brooch. “You’re a liar! You don’t lo

Loren's POV Killian froze, “Loren,” he stood, reaching to wipe my tears. “Why are you crying?”He pulled me into his arms but Rue’s words echoed in my head on loop until I pushed him away. “Get away from me!”Even then, I could see only love in his eyes. “Loren, what's going on?”I wiped my tears even as my legs felt like jelly. What could I say, what could I do? I had to do something — I had to stop Rue. What could I say to hurt Killian into divorcing me? Oh. “Loren—““Stay right here, Killian! Don’t come close to me!”“Good girl,” Rue praised. I shut my eyes and Killian spoke up again, “Whatever it is, we can fix it.”I feigned a scoff. “Fix it? Fix what, Killian? Can you fix yourself?”He frowned, “M-me?”My heart ached all over again. “Well, do you see anyone else here?” I retorted. “I can only see you.”He parted his lips but no words came out. “I can see a selfish brat who abandoned his father when he needed him the most. Who let his sister live in a different country b

Loren’s POV “I don’t know what to do Mom. I need you.”I stared at the stars through my blurry vision, my heart aching in my chest. For the past ten years since Mom passed, I’d faced every single problem alone. Then Killian entered my life and I suddenly stopped feeling so alone. I had someone to lean on, someone who would tell me everything would be fine…I thought fate was cruel when it snatched my mom but I survived it anyway — maybe I could survive losing Killian. Maybe I could endure everything, but how could I hurt the only person who'd ever shown me kindness? How could I break his heart? I shut my eyes recalling how I’d pulled Pilar into my arms, promising to fix everything. I was about to lose the love of my life for the other love of my life. I could barely feel my feet moving as I entered the Whitmore Mansion. As I stopped in front of our bedroom, I had never felt so helpless in my life. So thoroughly finished. And yet, I wanted to see him one last time. I wanted

Loren’s POV Rue grinned. “Oh look how the tables turn. A few minutes ago, you said you were going to throw me out of this house in twenty-four hours,” She stepped forward. “But it looks like I’ll be sending Pilar to prison in less than an hour.”“Shut your mouth,” I spat, pulling Pilar behind me. She rolled her eyes, “I don’t have any limits or boundaries, Loren. I can do anything and that’s why you should have never messed with me. Rue Bennet has never lost a game and I’m not losing this either.”I scoffed. “Fine then, go.” I snarled. “It’s your word against ours anyway.”“But, Loren —“ Pilar spoke up but I pulled her closer. “Don’t worry. She’s all talk and no show.”Rue stared at us for a moment, almost like she was amused before she spoke up. “I won’t have to say a single word. I’ll just show them this,” she offered us her phone. I snatched it and every fight in me drained as I watched the video of the accident. It clearly zoomed in to show Pilar’s face. I glared at Rue, “Ho
