Aurelia looked satisfied as she patted Nathaniel’s shoulder with approval. “That’s my son. Go talk to Melissa now. She’s probably crying her eyes out in there.”

Nathaniel nodded and turned as he headed toward the guest wing. But a part of him was still feeling an inner turmoil He refused to name.

  • Divorced while pregnant: His regret came too late   Chapter 16

    Aurelia looked satisfied as she patted Nathaniel’s shoulder with approval. “That’s my son. Go talk to Melissa now. She’s probably crying her eyes out in there.”Nathaniel nodded and turned as he headed toward the guest wing. But a part of him was still feeling an inner turmoil He refused to name. He was doing exactly what he should have done and yet as he reached for the door handle to apologize to Melissa, he felt as if a part of him didn't want to go inside. Taking a deep breath he opened the door and stepped inside.Shaking his thoughts away, Nathaniel pushed the door open to find Melissa huddled on the edge of the bed, her face buried in her hands. Her shoulders were shaking with sobs filling the entire room."Melissa," he said calmly, the guilt starting to gnaw at him as he looked at her crying.She looked up at him with her mascara now smeared, which made her look even more fragile and pitiful. "You really want me gone here, don't you? You want me to leave after everything I've

  • Divorced while pregnant: His regret came too late   Chapter 15

    The days passed into a week, then two, and the restlessness in Nathaniel’s chest had turned into a slow building storm which has started to torment him slowly.Everyday things begin to remind him of Elara but he told himself it was just the habit of having Elara around in the past. He didn’t love Elara and he was sure of that, but her absence was like a painful, physical ache that followed him from room to room. Every time a door opened, he expected to see her. Every time the house was quiet, he waited for the sound of her voice to fall into his ears.Instead, he could only hear Melissa’s voice.Yes, she was still living there at his mansion, claiming her apartment’s renovations were dragging on. She was still his mother, Aurelia Blackwood’s favourite, who had been visiting for the past few weeks while becoming happy with Mellisa being there as Aurelia was letting her stay longer in the house."I just want to soak up every moment with you, aunty," Melissa would say to Aurelia sweetl

    “What?”The word barely made it out of Elara's mouth. Elara’s heart was hammering against her ribs in an uneven rhythm.Christian stared at her for another second, his expression unreadable. Then, the corner of his mouth twitched and he let out a dry and short breath as he half-lauged and , half-scoffed, and leaned back, breaking the tension as if he didn't just shock Elara from his words.“Relax,” he said, shaking his head. He looked away reaching for his jacket. “I’m joking, Elara. You should see your face right now. Hah.”Elara felt the air rushing back into her lungs as she drew out a long breath. She felt a wave of heat from embarrassment prickle up to her neck. “That’s not funny,” she snapped back, her voice finally getting firm. “That’s…. You–you’re an idiot.”“Yeah, probably.” He stood up playfully with a wink, adjusting his sleeves. His tone was back to normal again. “I’m out of here. I’ll see you around.”He didn't wait for an answer from Elara as turned and walked out, leav

    After the shopping, Nathaniel and Melissa reached the nearby restaurant as she wanted to have lunch with him.Nathaniel adjusted his shirt sleeves and stepped into the restaurant behind Melissa. She walked ahead of him like she owned the place.“I’m starving,” she said, sliding into her seat. “Shopping is so exhausting. I already feel tired.”Nathaniel didn't reply as he pulled out his chair and sat down across from her, his gaze flickering over Melissa for a second before taking a look at the menu.Melissa flipped her hair over her shoulder and grabbed the menu from his hand. “Honestly, I missed this so much, Nate. I missed us. I missed you taking me out like this.” She smiled. “Feels like old times, doesn’t it?”Nathaniel gave her a nod. “Yeah.”The waiter approached, and Melissa didn’t hesitate.“Nathaniel and I’ll have the grilled lobster, butter garlic prawns, and–” she paused, glancing up with a playful smile, “–make those two seafood platters.”Nathaniel’s fingers stilled again

    Elara had never thought she would see him again.For a moment, Elara just stared at him deeply, her eyes filled with surprise.“Christian…?” she said in disbelief.The man holding her steadied her gently before letting go of her, though his hands lingered there a little bit longer than necessary, as if confirming she was really standing in front of him. A familiar smile spread across his face. “Well,” he said, looking her over with an unreadable glint in his eyes, “I left for a few years and this is the welcome I get? You crashing into me the moment I walk in? Not done.”Elara let out a small breath and shook her head with a small smile as she straightened her composure.“I didn’t know you were back,” she said, though her eyes still searched his face as if making sure he was real. After all, she has been meeting him for years now.This man was none other than Christian Miller, Elara's childhood friend and the heir to the Milkar group.Christian’s gaze didn't leave hers. “I just arriv

    Nathaniel reached the mansion early the next morning, the sky was shining with sunlight, the rays falling over his face brightly. His red-shot eyes were proof that hadn’t slept properly. He had spent the whole night in his office suite. The time slipped with him fighting with his thoughts and staring at the ceiling, pretending he wasn’t thinking about anything at all.He’d taken a long shower before leaving but it didn’t help much either. Whatever was going on in his head was still there all aloud.He didn't know why he was even feeling that way. He had everything exactly the way he liked it. Still, none of it seemed to matter to him right now. For once, Nathaniel had no control over what he was feeling. Shaking his thoughts he stepped inside. He had barely reached the huge living room when Melissa appeared. She was already dressed in a gorgeous designer dress, her hair perfectly done as if she’d been waiting for him to come home."Nate, you're finally back!" she said, her voice li

    The rest of the night passed with an agonizing crawl for Nathaniel. He tossed and turned on the bed, the silence of the bedroom pressing against his eardrums like a heavy weight. Every time he closed his eyes, he expected to hear the soft rustle of sheets or the soft breathing of the woman who had

    As Nathaniel picked up the buzzing phone, his heart thudded with a hint of hope that he refused to voice.Is it really her? he wondered. Is Elara calling to tell me this divorce nonsense was just a bluff?He snatched it up, pressing the phone to his ear before the second ring. “Elara?”“Who? No, it

    Nathaniel couldn’t believe what he was hearing. All of it felt like some kind of joke! He had thought this was just another stunt pulled by Elara. He had expected her to come to him crying and begging him to take her back. But this… this was completely unexpected. “What do you mean?” Nathanie

    Dad, What did you just say?!Elara spoke, a subtle and jagged tension pulled at the corners of Elara’s mouth, and her hand resting on the tablecloth curled into a tight fist."Elara," Richard said, his voice already steady like an iron clad head of the Hale family he was. "It is time you start to s
