~Eva’s POV

“My husband means nothing to me,” I said, sharper than I intended.

He searched my face. “Then why does he still have a shadow in this room?” he asked softly.

I turned away, walking a few steps toward the window, the city stretching endlessly below. “You knew what this was,” I said. “You knew who I was when you chose to be here.”

“And I still chose you,” he replied, coming to stand behind me, not touching this time. “But I will not burn my life down for someone who might walk away

  • Divorced and Remarried: Desired by Two Billionaires    110

    110~Eva’s POVI walked into the ward, my steps quiet, deliberate, though inside I felt like I was stomping on glass. The door clicked shut behind me, muffling the outside world, leaving only him, the machines, and the sterile scent of antiseptic.He lay there, still. I paused at the side of his bed, staring at his face. It was closed and peaceful, maybe. But I knew better. I knew he was gone.I sank into the chair beside him, legs trembling under me. My hands shook as I lifted one toward him. I pressed it gently against his arm, almost afraid the cold would burn me. It did. His skin was so cold, like marble, unyielding. I recoiled immediately, my hand falling to my lap as if I had touched ice through my soul.I looked down at my bag, at the papers I had stamped moments ago. My fingers trembled as I unzipped it, staring at the document, the ink still dark, still final. My eyes blurred. I whispered to no one, to everyone, to myself: “What have I done?”The room seemed to spin slowly, a

    109~Eva’s POVI watched from outside of the room as the doctors rushed in. Their shoes slapped against the floor, echoing in the stark white ward. My heart lodged in my throat, hammering against my ribs so violently it was a wonder I didn’t collapse right there. I couldn’t see their faces clearly, only the blur of scrubs and masks, the flicker of movements, hands flying across monitors, the shuffle of papers, the squeak of the bed being adjusted.They were over him, bending and leaning, voices low but clipped, commands whispered sharply. I wanted to step closer, to help, to do something, anything, but my legs were frozen. I could feel my hands trembling, gripping the strap of my bag as if holding onto it would anchor me to reality.I caught sight of his chest rising and falling, unevenly, and I forced myself not to scream, not to collapse.I could hear muffled words. Orders, reassurances, the quiet beeping of machines. I didn’t need to know what they were saying to know they were try

    108~Eva’s POVHe never denied it.That was the cruelest part.“I never disputed that you are my granddaughter,” he said, his voice thin and tired, like it might give up at any moment. “But..”But.The word sliced through me.“No.” The sound ripped out of my chest before I could stop it. It didn’t sound like me. It sounded raw, angry, and desperate. “No.”I stepped closer to the bed, my hands clenched so tightly my fingers hurt. I was shaking, and I hated that he could see it. I hated that even now, I still looked like the girl asking for permission.“You don’t get to say but,” I yelled. “Not now. Not after everything.”My heart was racing, my thoughts colliding into one sharp certainty. I was done waiting, done proving myself. I told him I was claiming what was mine. Rightfully, legally, and morally. Every way that mattered. I said it like a promise, like the room itself needed to hear it.And then I saw it.The stamp.It sat on the side table, heavy and quiet, the metal catching the

    ~107Eva’s POVHe exhaled slowly, then leaned forward, resting his elbows on the desk. The movement was deliberate, heavy with meaning, like a man about to say something that could not be taken back.“There is only one way to fix this,” he said. “One clean way.”I lifted my head at once, my eyes locking onto his. The room seemed to hold its breath with me. “Say it.”“The transfer papers,” he replied. “The document that shows your grandfather willingly transferred ownership of the shares to you.”My heart skipped, sharp and sudden. For a moment, hope flared before I could stop it. “You said that paper existed.”“It does,” he said calmly, already turning away from me. He walked to a cabinet behind his desk, unlocked it with a small metallic click, and pulled the drawer open. Files were arranged inside with careful precision. He began to search through them, one after the other.The sound of paper sliding against paper filled the room. It was soft, dry, and unforgiving. Each shuffle made

    106~Eva’s POVI slid into the seat and closed the door, the outside world sealing off with a dull thud. I glanced at the mirror as I started the engine, but my eyes drifted back toward the gate before I could stop myself.He was still there, standing with the child beside him, one hand resting on the child’s shoulder. He laughed at something the child said, the sound visible even from a distance in the way his shoulders moved.I felt oddly aware of myself suddenly. Of my posture. Of my hair. Of the faint trace of makeup I had reapplied earlier.“Are we going now,” Ronan asked, impatience creeping into his tone.“Yes,” I said quickly, shifting the car into gear. “We are going.”I pulled out of the parking space slowly, careful not to draw attention, though I was not sure why I cared. As the car moved forward, I passed close enough to see him clearly through the windshield.For a brief moment, our eyes met.It was quick. Barely a second.But it was enough.His gaze was steady. Then he

    105~Eva’s POVI looked at my mum, desperate. “What should I do.”She leaned closer, lowering her voice. “You remind him who you are. You remind him what you mean to him.”“And if that does not work,” I asked quietly.Her eyes darkened. “Then you make sure she regrets ever coming back.”I swallowed, my heart pounding. “I do not want to lose him.”My mother squeezed my hand. “Then you fight,” she said. “And you do not fight fair.”She looked at me closely, her eyes sharp but calm, like she was measuring the damage and already planning how to fix it.“This time,” she said firmly, “we will step in.”I lifted my head and looked at her. My lashes were heavy with tears, my vision still blurry, but I saw the certainty on her face. It was not anger. It was not panic. It was confidence. The kind that comes from money, power, and knowing you have leverage.“You have done enough on your own,” she continued. “You have been patient long enough. If Dylan thinks he can treat you this way and get awa

    55~Velma’s POVWe stepped outside, and the night breeze was soft. The lights of the restaurant reflected on the car windows, and I could hear the city around us, not loud, but alive. Theron opened the door, and I helped him settle Jaden in the back seat. I removed Jaden’s shoes so he could be comf

    51~Velma’s POVI took a deep breath and let my grandfather see me again, not as the little girl he knew, but as someone who had walked through fire and come out alive.“Grandpa,” I said softly, “Theron… he invested in me when no one else would.

    53~Velma’s POVI nodded, still holding my grandfather’s hand, feeling the warmth and strength in it. I hadn’t even realized I’d been crying while telling him everything; my heart had carried so many memories that the tears just slipped out without asking. Grandpa noticed and handed me a tissue wit
