Pristine's POV

There was a beat of hesitation on his end, but then he sighed and said, “He came to visit Serena at her hotel. I saw him and called him afterward. Said some things I shouldn’t have.”

My lips curled into a slow smile. “And?”

“He recorded it,” Kyle muttered. “Sent it to her. She played it back to me today.”

“Wow,” I said, eyes twinkling as I looked at Nadia. “So you had her, and you let Alexander slip in between?”

“I was a fool,” he said bitterly. “I got jealous. Lost control. And now she doesn’t trust me.”

I leaned back into my chair, savoring the crack in his armor. “Jealousy’s a dangerous game, Kyle. Especially when you’re trying to win someone like Serena. She doesn’t take kindly to possession.”

“I know that now,” he murmured.

I let the silence settle, then asked, “So, the investors’ meeting, will it still hold tomorrow?”

“No,” he said immediately. “I’ve shifted it.”

My brows lifted. “Really? Why?”

“Tomorrow’s Serena’s birthday,” he said. “And I want to focus complete

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 127

    Serena's POVThe knock came again, it was louder this time. Sophia set her mug down while I walked toward the door, but one of the maids beat me to it and opened the door, and Damien stepped in.I smiled at first, until I noticed the woman standing right beside him and my smile faded instantly as if I had just seen the devil incarnated in the body of a woman.It was Pristine.I glanced at her a minute before turning to Damien. "Please tell me she isn't the person you went to fetch from the airport."I couldn't hide my despair.Just as Damien was about to speak, Pristine stepped forward with her honeyed voice. "Well, well, Serena. Never thought I would catch you here at Damien's. He didn't say you were around."I ignored her completely and looked back at Damien. “What is she doing here?”He lifted his hands slightly. “I have nothing to do with it.”“What do you mean you have nothing to do with it?” My voice was sharper now. “Why did you invite her here?”“I didn’t invite her,” Damien s

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 126

    Serena's POVSophia and I drove back to Damien’s apartment. The city lights blurred past the window, and my thoughts were still a mess from earlier.“So,” Sophia said, glancing at me from the driver’s seat, “did you finally confront Kyle?”I sighed. “Yeah, I did. At first I tried ignoring it, but eventually, I spilled it.”Sophia raised a brow. “And?”“And nothing. He listened. Said his piece. I guess I said mine.”She hummed. “You should at least give him a chance to prove himself again.”I turned to her, narrowing my eyes. “Wow. He buys you a mansion and now you’ve become his advocate?”Sophia laughed. “Please. I’m just saying-"“No, no, I see it now,” I cut in, shaking my head. “You’re defending him because of the house.”She grinned. “Alright, fine. But admit it, you went there to play politics.”I laughed, but then stopped suddenly.Sophia noticed. "What is it?" she asked as she drove."I don't know, I have been thinking about Kyle and Alexander lately. You know there’s a strikin

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 125

    Pristine's POVI leaned my head toward him. "So, who are you picking up from the airport?" His gaze remained forward. "No one important."I raised an eyebrow. "If it's not important, then why the confidentiality?""It's private."“I don't like private," I said, drawing out my tone. "Come on, Damien. Come on. You can't say you're going to the airport and not get questioned."He took a deep breath. "I'm picking up my brother."I raised my brows. "Your brother? When do you have a brother? I've never heard you say anything about him.""That's because I don't talk about family.""Why not? Bad blood?" I said, leaning slightly closer."No," he replied firmly. "We're fine. I just don't want to share personal information like that."I leaned back. "Hmm. Okay. But now I'm interested in him.""You'll see," Damien replied with a small smile twitching on his lips.I decided to play a little game with him, to discover where this will lead me.I stroked my chin. "So, I have a question to ask you."

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 123

    Pristine's POVI leaned back into the garden chair, sipping slowly from the wine glass in my hand. It was late in the afternoon.My friend, Nadia, sat across from me, her lips curved in a sly smile, the red of her lipstick almost as sharp as her gaze.We were both in black, satin gowns. It was our thing when we didn’t want to draw attention but still planned to dominate every space we entered. Even this secluded one.“I invested in Kyle’s company,” I said, twirling my glass lazily, “hoping it would spark some kind of reaction from Serena.”Nadia’s brows lifted with amused interest. “You think it worked?”“Not yet,” I admitted. “But it will. Eventually.”Nadia chuckled, brushing her dark curls behind one ear. “I’m confused, Pristine. I thought it was Damien you were after. Now Kyle’s in the mix? Is Serena involved with both of them or what? You think Alexander’s betrayal has turned her into a player?”I narrowed my eyes slightly at the mention of Alexander. “I don’t know what exactly S

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 122

    Serena's POVHis silence said everything.“I didn’t want him near you,” he said finally, “and when I saw him going in, I panicked. I thought I should warn him to back off before he messes with your head again.”"Is that all you did?" I asked, still permitting him to be completely honest."What do you mean?" he inquired."That's all you did? Just warn him?""Yes," he replied firmly. "Whatever he told you, it's likely distorted. Don't listen to him. He's your ex-husband, Serena. Of course, he'd lie to make you turn against me."I smiled weakly. The kind of smile you receive when you already know the truth."Funny," I said to him. "Because I've got the voice note."He froze. "What?"I pulled my phone out of my pocket and retrieved my saved messages. The voice note Alexander had left me played through the speaker, clear and loud.Kyle's expression crashed, his mouth agape a fraction of an inch. He said nothing until the message was finished.Silence hung between us like a heavy curtain.I
