EX-HUSBAND’S REGRET(The Wife He Discarded) Chapter 259
I continued talking about my brothers.How they never treated me like something broken that needed fixing.They simply stayed beside me until I learned how to stand again.They taught me everything.Business.People.Strength.How to make decisions.How to protect myself.How to walk into a room without wondering whether I belonged there.I told him about the idea that eventually became AURELIA.How it started.How uncertain I had been.How much I had learned along the way.How the company grew.How the little things eventually became something much bigger than I had ever imagined.Dominic listened to every word.When I finally stopped, the silence between us felt different.Not uncomfortable.Just full.He looked out at the city for a moment.“You built all of that after everything happened.”It wasn’t really a question.I nodded.He smiled faintly.“I always knew you were strong.”I turned toward him.“But I don’t think I ever understood how strong.”My lips parted slightly.He cont

We reached the balcony.The cold air touched my face the moment I stepped outside.We both sat on the couch.Then Dominic reached for a blanket resting over the back of the couch and carefully placed it around my shoulders.I pulled it closer.Neither of us spoke.I looked out at the city.London stretched beneath us, its lights scattered across the streets and buildings. From this height, everything looked quieter than it really was.It was beautiful.I let out a slow breath.For the first time since I had arrived, I felt some of the tension in my chest begin to settle.Then I turned.Dominic was looking at me.He looked away almost immediately.I couldn’t help the small smile that touched my lips.I turned back toward the view.For a few more seconds, neither of us said anything.Then I finally spoke.“I read the journal.”Dominic’s head turned toward me.For a moment, he didn’t say anything.Then he leaned back.“I didn’t write that because I thought I was going to give it to you o

My lips touched his.He froze completely.For one heartbeat, neither of us moved.I pulled back just enough to look at him.His eyes met mine.There was disbelief in them.And something deeper.Something that made my chest ache.I leaned in again.This time, I kissed him slowly.His hand tightened around mine.His other hand remained at his side, as though he was still afraid to assume he could touch me.I felt his breath catch.Then his fingers finally moved.They slid carefully around my waist.And when he kissed me back, everything inside me seemed to give way.The kiss deepened without either of us deciding to make it happen.His hand settled against my waist.My fingers found the back of his neck.His skin was warm beneath my fingertips.I closed my eyes.For a moment, there was no past.No divorce.No five years.No fear.Just him.His lips moved against mine with a kind of desperation that made my heart hurt.Like he had been waiting for this longer than I could understand.He

The drive was quiet.Neither of us spoke.I sat with my hands folded in my lap, staring through the passenger-side window as London passed outside.I knew what I had come here to say.I just didn’t know how to say it.My heart had been beating too fast since I got into the car, and every time I tried to arrange the words in my head, they seemed to disappear.Eventually, Dominic turned onto a quieter street.A few minutes later, the car slowed in front of a mansion.He switched off the engine.I looked up.His house was beautiful.But it wasn’t as big as the one in New York. It was a family house. His father’s house.This one was different.Smaller.Quieter.Elegant without trying too hard.It looked like a home meant for a small family.I stared at it for another second before opening the door.Dominic got out as well.He walked around the car, but he didn’t say anything.Neither did I.He simply gestured toward the front door.I followed him.He unlocked it and pushed it open.The mo

The week after Christmas passed faster than I expected.The day after Christmas, I had an event to attend.Then came everything else that seemed determined to fill every empty space in my schedule.I kept myself busy.But whenever things became quiet, my mind went back to that morning.To Dominic standing in front of me.To the look in his eyes when I told him to disappear.I had been too harsh.I knew that now.At the time, I had convinced myself that I needed to say it that way. I needed him to stay away so I could understand what I truly felt without him constantly in front of me.But the more days that passed, the more I regretted the way I had said it.I was the one who had asked him to leave.Still, I couldn’t stop thinking about him.Not because of Leo.Not because I felt guilty.It was because of my feelings for him.And that frightened me more than I wanted to admit.I had spent those two weeks trying to separate my feelings from everything else.Was it because Leo finally kn

Dinner continued with easy laughter around the table.Gabriella slowly became more comfortable as the evening went on. At first, she mostly listened, smiling whenever someone spoke to her. But before long, she was answering questions, laughing at Pierce’s expense, and even joining in when we teased him.Leo kept finding reasons to speak to everyone, his questions bouncing from one person to another.The table stayed loud until the plates were cleared.Later, we moved outside to the garden.Music played through a Zealot speaker, filling the cold night air while glasses clinked and conversations overlapped.The garden had turned into its own little world.Pierce and Gabriella were talking near one of the seating areas. Ford and Hayes stood together with their drinks, discussing something that occasionally made Ford laugh. Camille had joined them for a while before drifting toward the music.Reed stood farther away, listening to one of the conversations.Leo stayed close to me for a whil

My stomach twisted suddenly, a wave of nausea rising so fast I had to press my hand against my lips.I didn’t know if it was the food I had forced myself to eat…or the way my whole life had just been turned upside down.The phone slipped slightly in my hand.For a second, I thought I could hold it

I picked up the tie from the drawer and held it up for a second, smoothing the fabric between my fingers.Navy blue with gold strips.It would go well with the suit Dominic had already brought out.I placed it carefully on the dressing table, making sure it lay straight, then turned to the watch ra

My legs felt weak.I couldn’t move.It was like my body had stopped listening to me the moment I saw her.Mirabel stood up slowly, smoothing her dress like she had all the time in the world. Then she started walking toward me.“It’s been a long time, Rel.”The nickname twisted something deep in my

Dominic took his bath and left without saying anything.I didn’t try to stop him this time.What was there to say?He had already told me the truth.He was with Mirabel.And he didn’t feel bad about it.I was still sitting on the bed long after he left.I didn’t move.I just sat there, staring at n
