Burning Through 99 Chances in a Year Chapter 8
Omniscient POVBefore Bryan even made it home, a new email popped up in his inbox. As soon as he read it, his face darkened.It was a series of legal documents for the divorce petition I'd filed, including the court summons, the agreement for Star Tower, and the evidence that proved his infidelity.That was the moment when he realized why Stella had left the hospital so quickly the other day. She hadn't been acting out of anger. She'd gone off to prepare for the divorce.He stared at the screen for a long time, feeling like his heart was being squeezed.But even so, he didn't want to sign the divorce agreement. He couldn't accept that things were turning out like this. He refused to believe that she would really be this ruthless toward him.Bryan hired a lawyer to apply for mediation, hoping that he could secure another chance to meet Stella in person.However, his lawyer didn't receive any response to that request. Simon also maintained a firm attitude, and the only reply he ga

Stella's POVI was caught off guard by the state Bryan was in. In just one night, he'd grown a messy stubble, his suit was drenched, and his eyes were bloodshot. Honestly, he looked pathetic.He jumped to his feet the moment he saw me, looking like he was about to rush over and hug me. However, I raised my hand before he could reach me and held out a document in front of him."Sign this."Bryan's steps came to an abrupt halt. His face paled when he saw the words "Divorce Agreement" printed in bold on top.He swallowed hard, as if he had a lot of things to say. But in the end, he simply asked me in a hoarse voice, "How are you feeling right now?"I didn't even bother looking him in the eye as I repeated myself. "Sign it.""Stella, let's just talk first, okay?" Bryan's hands were clenched, and his voice was tight. "It's not like we can't resolve this situation. We—""Other than the divorce, there's nothing left for us to talk about," I interrupted. "I gave you 99 chances, Bryan.

Omniscient POVBryan frowned. He didn't think Roxy would have the audacity to spend the night at the villa. She was even brazenly showing up at the front door in a nightgown to greet him, acting like she really was the lady of the house.Seeing his expression, Roxy immediately came closer. "What's wrong, Mr. Sable? Did Mrs. Sable throw another tantrum?"When he didn't respond, she assumed she was right and quickly tried to console him, "Well, pampered heiresses like her are bound to be all delicate and easily upset. Mr. Sable, you—""That's enough." Bryan cut her off. "It's late. You should leave."Roxy froze. She'd never seen Bryan being this cold before. Her eyes immediately welled with tears, but her reaction only irritated him even further.Despite having grown up in the lap of luxury, Stella would never tear up over something as insignificant as this. She would never use her tears to force others into letting her have her way. Instead, she'd try to find a way to resolve wh

Omniscient POVAfter Stella ended the call, Bryan tried calling her again. But this time, he heard a robotic voice saying, "Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable…"He stared at his phone screen, his heart clenching tightly. He immediately sent Stella a message."How could I have used up all of the free passes already? You gave me so many, and it hasn't been long since we got married!"Then he sent another one."Where are you? Send me your location. I'll come over and talk to you right away."And when no reply came, he sent yet another. "Don't be so impulsive, Stella. Answer me."Alas, all of his messages went unanswered.At last, Bryan was well and truly panicked. He swiftly called up his assistant and said in a tight voice, "Find out which hospital Stella is at. Do it now."After ending the call, he sat in Stella's office, letting the darkness surround him. The gloominess of the night sky matched the heavy feeling in his heart.Only then did he notice the state of

Stella's POVEarly the next morning, I was woken up by Roxy's arrival. She stood on the doorstep, having brought with her the evening gown she wore yesterday. In a timid voice, she said, "I had the gown dry-cleaned, Mrs. Sable. I'm returning it to you now."Before I could respond, Bryan took the gown and tossed it over to Edgar. "It's just a gown. You didn't need to come by just for that. But since you're already here, join us for lunch."He draped his arm across Roxy's shoulders and escorted her in without a pause, as if I weren't standing right there—as if I didn't exist at all.My hand tightened around the doorknob, and my gaze turned icy.At the dining table, Bryan and Roxy kept talking about work, seemingly behaving perfectly appropriately.I didn't know if Roxy did it on purpose, but under the table, her heel kept brushing against my calf. All of a sudden, she raised her wine glass in my direction, but Bryan quickly pressed her hand down."You had more than enough to drink

Stella's POVI ended my call with Simon, then turned to Bryan with an impassive expression. "It's nothing. Someone has been causing trouble for me. If he crosses me three more times, I'll bankrupt him for good."Bryan came over. He couldn't resist pinching my cheek as he remarked, "As expected of you, the Ludlow family heiress. You always speak with such imposing authority. If I were in his shoes, I'd be begging for mercy right about now." Startled, I looked at him. "Is that so? But he doesn't seem the least bit inclined to beg for mercy.""Then you should let him suffer for a bit. He'll fall in line then."Bryan was right about that. People only behaved themselves after they were made to suffer.Meanwhile, Bryan changed the subject by bringing out a gift box.Before even opening it, I already knew what was inside. Back when he was pursuing me, he loved giving me jewelry. Since I was in the habit of collecting jewelry, even when he had no money, he would still do everything he
