OSTARA’S POV

Watching Anthony step into Harvest Bloom was like watching a man learn a new language but somehow already sound fluent.

He took notes. He asked questions. He listened to people half his age explain tempering ratios and retail display behavior with the seriousness of a man being briefed on international policy.

And then, when the flavor sessions started, he became unexpectedly useful.

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 333

    OSTARA’S POVI looked down at the ring again and felt emotion rise so quickly I had to swallow it back.It was perfect. Of course, it was perfect. Simple and strong and elegant.I curled my fingers, then looked back at him.“That rooftop thing you arranged,” I said slowly.Anthony blinked. “The one I am now praying you never saw the invoices for?”I laughed. “Can it be adjusted?”He narrowed his eyes playfully. “Adjusted how?”“For a family dinner,” I said. “Tonight. So we can announce this right.”His whole face changed.Not just softened—lit up. Relief, delight, something almost boyish. Like the idea of sharing this immediately, instead of guarding it for some private later, was a gift he hadn’t let himself expect.“Yes,” he said instantly. “Absolutely. I’ll make some calls.”We both got up off the floor. The second we were upright, I pulled him in again for a kiss. Then I pulled out my phone.The family group chat was already chaotic on a normal day. Today, I decided, it could ha

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 332

    ANTHONY’S POVShe looked up at me, eyes wide and bright, her breath still a little uneven from laughing and kissing me and nearly knocking me over in the middle of her office.For one insane second, I almost lost my nerve.The scale of my emotions and how long they had been built up knocked the wind out of me and made me wonder if I could even go through with it. I had known for years that this was where I wanted to end up. Not London—the city didn’t matter—but with her and Donna. But knowing was not the same thing as saying it.And for all the planning I had done—the rooftop, the flowers, the restaurant, the music, the speech before getting down on one knee—I knew there would be no better time than this. Screw it, I thought. This is the moment. Her smile had softened now. She was searching my face, and then I saw it.The realization.It came slowly, like dawn crossing water.Her mouth parted. Her eyes widened further, and the breath she drew in trembled on the way down.I almost l

    OSTARA’S POVWatching Anthony step into Harvest Bloom was like watching a man learn a new language but somehow already sound fluent.He took notes. He asked questions. He listened to people half his age explain tempering ratios and retail display behavior with the seriousness of a man being briefed on international policy.And then, when the flavor sessions started, he became unexpectedly useful.I sat at the end of the tasting counter one afternoon with Davina on one side, Ethan slouched opposite her, and Anthony leaning against the stainless-steel worktable with a little notebook in hand.Davina placed three test pieces in front of us. “Okay. These are all versions of jasmine and citrus for East Asia. Subtle, elegant, premium gifting. Try not to be irritating.”“No promises,” Ethan said.We all sampled the first one.Anthony chewed slowly, thoughtful. “Too floral,” he said. “Not in a bad way, but if you want this to land in China or Hong Kong in a luxury context, the finish needs mo

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 330

    ANTHONY’S POVI woke up before the sun.I don’t think I even slept… because I had a ring hidden where Ostara wouldn’t find it and a half-finished plan in my head.I came downstairs quietly, the old London townhouse still mostly asleep around me. The radiators hummed. The air held that faint morning chill that never quite left old buildings in winter.Bethany was already in the kitchen, preparing her own breakfast before she had to wake Donna for school. She stood at the counter in one of her neat cardigans, buttering toast while the kettle boiled. She looked surprised to see me. “Well,” she said, eyebrows rising. “Couldn’t sleep?”I exhaled through my nose. “Nope.”She smiled faintly, as if she knew there was more to it but would let me pretend for a while.“What’s on your mind?” she asked.I leaned against the island and folded my arms. “Nothing dramatic. Just… still adjusting, I guess. From America. To being here full-time.”“That makes sense,” Bethany said. “The weather’s certain

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 329

    OSTARA’S POV“Are you serious?”The question left my mouth before I could soften it.Natalie sat across from us in that cold little room, her cuffs glinting faintly under the fluorescent lights, and nodded once.“Yes.”Her voice was quieter than I remembered. There was no drama in it now, no calculated fragility. Just exhaustion and a strange kind of resolve.Anthony leaned back in his chair, still visibly trying to decide if this was some elaborate trick. “You’re offering Donna your entire trust fund.”Natalie swallowed. “Yes.”“No strings attached?” Anthony asked suspiciously. “None,” she said. “That’s what Michael is here for,” she gestured to her lawyer. “He has all the paperwork for you to look over. She will have access to it after she graduates from high school.” She looked at me. “I know money doesn’t fix what I did. I’m not stupid. But… I thought maybe I could at least be an aunt to her for once.”Something painful moved through my chest.Anthony was still suspicious, under

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 328

    ANTHONY’S POVNatalie had some nerve.That was my first coherent thought as I stood by the kitchen counter, phone pressed to my ear, staring out at the grey London morning.“You’ve run out of favours to ask me,” I said flatly.On the other end of the line, she was quiet for a second. Then: “I know.”There was something in her voice that made me pause. Not innocence. Not manipulation exactly. Just… exhaustion.“Then why are you calling?” I asked.“I want to see Ostara one last time.”I laughed once, short and cold. “Absolutely not.”“Anthony—”“No.” I turned from the window and paced once across the kitchen. “You don’t get to keep appearing in our lives every time you decide you’re emotional enough to deserve another audience.”“I’m not asking for forgiveness,” she said quickly.“That would be smart, because you’re not getting it.”“I know that.”I stopped walking.For a second, I heard only the hum of the refrigerator and the faint tick of the clock over the stove.“Then what?” I aske

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 265

    NATALIE’S POVThere was a time in my life when survival felt… improvisational. My lies had to be convincing if I wanted to survive, and my backbone needed to be made of adrenaline. I depended on my quick hands, quick lies, and pretty face to make my way through the world. It took me from stealing w

  • Dear CEO, I Want a Divorce   Chapter 279

    OSTARA’S POVMorning light filtered through the blinds of Anthony’s study, catching dust motes as I stood on the small platform the tailor had brought, the cool silver silk of my half-finished dress falling around my legs.“Turn a little, please,” she murmured. I shifted; Anthony watched from his

Today, even the room seemed on edge.We spoke in angry whispers, the kind people use when they don’t want the person in the next room to

    NATALIE’S POVI wasn’t trying to eavesdrop. Not at first, anyway.I padded down the stairs toward the faint kitchen light, just going for my usual nighttime tea. Gerard was meant to be watching my door from the landing, but his attention was glued to his phone.I was about to pass Anthony’s study w
