Justin,

"Was it necessary, Young Master?" Attorney Bakers, my dad's old friend, asked as I handed him the divorce papers.

I stayed quiet as I took off my shirt and sat on the edge of the bed. The fabric slipped from my fingers and fell beside my feet. I barely could keep my eyes open, a dull ache pulsing behind them as if sleep had abandoned me days ago.

"Then I will take my leave," he said before walking out.

I watched his back disappear behind the door until the latch

  • Billionaire's Relentless Pursue: Regret After Divorce    A birthday date

    The evening air carried a gentle coolness as we stepped out of the apartment together, the city already slipping into its quieter rhythm. The faint hum of distant traffic blended with the soft glow of streetlights, casting long shadows along the pavement.Justin walked beside me, his pace unhurried, matching mine without effort. There was something deliberate in the way he stayed just close enough, as if he had learned the exact distance that would not overwhelm me, yet would not feel distant either.“Shall we?” he asked, gesturing toward the car.I nodded, and we slipped into the quiet comfort of the vehicle. The drive to the cinema passed in a calm silence, not empty, but filled with something unspoken. The kind of silence that did not demand words, because the presence alone was enough.When we arrived, the theater stood bright against the darkening sky, its lights warm and inviting. A few people lingered near the entrance, laughter drifting through the air as tickets were checked

  • Billionaire's Relentless Pursue: Regret After Divorce    Her twenty seventh birthday

    Aurelia,Morning came quietly, as if it did not want to disturb the warmth that had settled in the apartment over the past few days. The soft clatter of luggage wheels against the floor broke the stillness, followed by Marie’s light humming as she double-checked her bag near the door.I stood by the hallway, arms loosely wrapped around myself, watching them. There was something about goodbyes that always made my chest feel tight, even when I knew they were temporary.“Are you sure you packed everything?” Gareth asked, glancing at Marie’s suitcase with a raised brow.Marie rolled her eyes, though her lips curved into a smile. “Yes, Gareth. I am not going on an expedition.”“You always forget something,” he muttered, but his tone held no real complaint.I let out a small breath, stepping closer. “You can always come back if you do.”Marie turned to me instantly, her face softening. “Don’t say that like we won’t.” She reached for me, pulling me into a hug that was warm and lingering. I f

  • Billionaire's Relentless Pursue: Regret After Divorce    A phase

    Justin,It was meant to be gentle. Just a soft press of my lips against hers, careful and fleeting, as though I was afraid that even a second longer would change something between us. Before the moment could deepen, I forced myself to pull away, even though every instinct in me resisted it.For a moment, I couldn’t look anywhere else. My gaze stayed on her, searching, memorizing every flicker of emotion crossing her face—the slight widening of her eyes, the warmth spreading across her cheeks, the quiet stillness that followed. It felt as if I needed to hold onto this second a little longer, to etch it into my memory so I could return to it whenever doubt crept in.Then I leaned closer, my voice quieter than I intended, almost fragile, as though the words carried more weight than I was prepared to bear."Happy Birthday, Aurelia. I hope… like this one, I can be by your side for every birthday to come."She nodded, her face flushed red, and that simple reaction made my chest tighten in a

    Aurelia,"I baked them. How is it?" Marie looked at me with those soft, hopeful eyes as she placed a piece of cake on the plate, her fingers lingering near the edge as if she was waiting for my reaction even before I tasted it.I nodded, receiving it from her, the warmth of the plate brushing against my fingertips. "Thank you. The cinnamon rolls and biscuits were delicious!""Really? I am chuffed that you liked them. I was fretting over them. Thank you!" She smiled, her shoulders finally relaxing as she let out a small breath she had been holding."It's alright. I wish your bakery was here. I could have bought them!""Unfortunately..." She sighed sharply, her smile dimming just a little."How about opening a branch here? I can help you with that!" I said casually, taking a spoonful of cream, letting the sweetness melt slowly on my tongue.But the silence that followed was heavy, unexpected. It pressed against my chest until I looked up, noticing Marie staring at me as if I had said so

  • Billionaire's Relentless Pursue: Regret After Divorce    A surprise party.

    Aurelia,Justin drove another half an hour, the road gradually thinning into a quiet stretch that opened up to the seaside. The distant sound of waves reached us even before the car came to a full stop. When we stepped out, the air carried that familiar scent of salt and something fresh, something clean enough to wash away the weight of the day.We settled on the wooden deck, letting our feet dip into the cold twilight ocean. The water curled around my ankles, sending a soft chill up my spine, but it wasn’t unpleasant. It felt grounding. The sky stretched endlessly above us, painted in shades of purple and orange that melted into one another. The clouds carried a soft glow, as if the sun had whispered its final goodbyes into them before slipping beneath the horizon.Justin sat next to me, quiet, but present in a way that didn’t demand attention. It felt like he was simply there, existing beside me, absorbing the moment without needing to fill it with words. His silence wasn’t heavy.

  • Billionaire's Relentless Pursue: Regret After Divorce    Serious to death

    Aurelia,"What will you do tomorrow? Any plans before the movie?" Justin asked as we walked back to the car. The evening air had grown cooler, brushing lightly against my skin, but I barely noticed it. I held the bouquet closer to my chest, the cold petals of the flowers feeling oddly comforting, like they grounded me in a moment that felt a little too unreal.I glanced at the flowers for a second before answering, trying to keep my voice steady. "A few things that I usually do. Don't worry, I will go watch the movie with you!"He smiled, that easy, unguarded smile that always seemed to catch me off guard, and opened the door for me. "I can't wait for tomorrow."A slow heat crawled up my neck, spreading across my face before I could stop it. I turned my head slightly, pretending to focus on getting into the car. "Me too."He didn’t move right away. I could feel his gaze lingering on me, studying me in a way that made my heartbeat pick up. Then he spoke again, his tone teasing but obs

    Aurelia,I stood there, watching him as he handled those people who were ready to strike me down with words. I didn’t expect some of the board members would actually be here before the meeting. The air in the room felt heavier than usual, thick with an unspoken tension that pressed against my chest

    Aurelia,I walked toward him, slowly, unwillingly. But my attention kept drifting to his face. His shirt was slightly wrinkly, contrast to his usual composed appearance. He looked horrible, as if he hadn’t slept at all. I knew he was crazy about work, but to an extent enough to kill himself?Howeve

    Aurelia,I climbed downstairs with a serious expression when I saw a woman hugging my mother tightly. The wide back of her frame didn’t help me see who she was until I approached them properly.“Mom?” I called out, reaching the living room.The woman immediately broke the hug and turned toward me.
