Chapter 7 Crimson Confrontation

Author: Krystal
Serena's POV

The crisp morning air felt different against my skin as I stepped out of the taxi in front of the imposing Blackwood mansion.

Today I was Serena Blackwood—soon to be just Serena again—here to finalize what should have been done long ago.

I'd chosen my outfit deliberately: a crimson dress that hugged my curves without being provocative, paired with black stilettos that added three inches to my height.

My hair cascaded down my back in soft waves, and I'd applied just enough makeup to

  • CEO's Regret After I Divorced   Chapter 390 EPILOGUE PART3

    Author’s POVNot a gorgeous cage built on lies, not a carefully packaged stable life, but a place where, no matter how long she left or how lost she was, there would always be someone waiting for her when she turned back.Zoe stepped forward, hugged her tightly, and said mockingly, "Finally remembered, huh? One more day, and I would've considered hiring a private jet to kidnap you home from all over the world."Serena laughed through her tears, wiping her eyes. "Still so harsh.""This is my unique way of caring," Zoe raised an eyebrow, then her gaze fell on Rancy beside her, and her expression softened at once. "Come here, let Auntie hug you."Maya couldn't wait any longer. She knelt down and pulled Rancy into her arms, crying and laughing at the same time. "I told you! The first time I saw you, I knew you had to be part of our family. Look at those eyebrows, those eyes, that stubbornness—just like your mom when she was little."Rancy was confused by the praise, but she smiled softly,

    Author’s POV"Mommy!" Rancy threw herself into Serena's arms first, her voice filled with grievance and unease. "You had so much blood yesterday, I was so scared."Serena knelt down at once, hugging her daughter tightly, tears threatening to fall again. Now that her memories had returned, that word "Mommy" sounded different than before. This wasn't just a child she'd taken care of for over two years—this was the little life she'd carried for ten months, the one she'd looked forward to so much before she lost her memory, the continuation of her and Ryan's love.She kissed Rancy's forehead, her voice soft enough to melt."I'm sorry I scared you, baby. Mommy won't do it again."Rancy nodded, then turned to look at Ryan in the bed. The little girl clearly didn't fully understand what was happening, but she knew this uncle had protected her mommy last night. Her gaze toward him was no longer just innocent unfamiliarity; instead, there was a hint of the natural sensitivity and longing that c

  • CEO's Regret After I Divorced   Chapter 388 EPILOGUE PART1

    Author’s POVMorning light filtered through the half-open blinds of the hospital room, inching across the floor and casting a soft glow on the pure white walls. The air smelled faintly of antiseptic, so quiet that the only sound was the steady, gentle beep of medical equipment humming in the background.Serena sat by the hospital bed, having kept watch all night.The scrapes on her body and the wound on her forehead had been treated, and the doctor had repeatedly emphasized that she needed rest too. But she'd only nodded, then stubbornly stayed, never leaving his side for a moment. Her hand remained clasped around Ryan's, as if letting go even a little would turn the past three years of misplaced time, the recovered memories, and the car crash that had nearly taken everything away into an unrealistic nightmare once again.Now, the morning light finally fell on Ryan's peaceful face.His forehead was wrapped in gauze, his shoulder and arm immobilized. His complexion was still pale, but f

    Author’s POVTraffic on the elevated highway was light.Ryan was nearly at the main road leading to the hospital. One more intersection, and he would see the lit sign of Central Memorial Hospital.But at that moment, his gaze snapped to the rearview mirror.An unusually bright pair of headlights was closing in fast from behind.This was no ordinary overtake. It was aimed directly at them.Ryan’s expression darkened. He recognized the car instantly."Hold on!" he snapped.Serena’s heart jolted. Before she could react, the car swerved violently to the right, narrowly dodging the first ram. The black sports car scraped past their rear bumper, tires screaming on the wet ground."Is that Cedric?" Serena’s face paled, real fear entering her voice for the first time.Ryan didn’t answer—he had no time to.The next second, the car turned and charged again, its headlights like two wild, out-of-control eyes locking onto them.Ryan’s jaw tightened, his gaze grim. One hand gripped the wheel, the ot

  • CEO's Regret After I Divorced   Chapter 386 I Wanted to Leave Here.

    Author’s POVAs Ryan’s car pulled away from the Lancaster estate, an almost suffocating silence settled inside the vehicle.Ryan had sent the driver away and was at the wheel himself. He didn’t drive fast, but with unnerving steadiness, as if the woman in the passenger seat—her emotions teetering on the edge of collapse—was not a person, but a treasure he had lost and recovered, one he dared not let slip again.Serena leaned back in her seat, still clutching the hospital documents. The edges of the paper were crumpled from how tightly she held them. She stared at the streetlights and buildings blurring past the window, but her gaze never truly focused.Everything had happened too quickly tonight, like an avalanche three years in the making, shattering every truth she had ever known.Cedric was not her savior.The car accident had not been an accident.Rancy was not Cedric’s daughter… but hers and Ryan’s.Each truth struck her chest like a block of ice, stealing her breath. Though the car

  • CEO's Regret After I Divorced   Chapter 385 The Truth Revealed2

    Author’s POVRancy looked up innocently, holding her rabbit and glancing between the adults, clearly sensing something was wrong. Maya quickly stepped over and lifted the girl into her arms, coaxing her to play in the nearby lounge. Though the little girl didn't understand, she nodded obediently.Once the child was gone, Ryan pulled out another file and placed it before Serena."This is the driver's statement. This is the original hospital admission record. This is the medication list from after your amnesia." His voice was quiet, but more powerful than any accusation. "You didn't leave the Blackwoods by choice, Serena. You lost your memory after the accident, and Cedric took advantage of that. He forged your identity and turned you into the 'Serena Lancaster' he wanted you to be."Serena's fingers trembled. She stared at the names, dates, and signatures on the pages—cold black words piercing her mind like needles. She wanted to say it was all fake, but the weight in her chest grew hea
