Amira stared at the screen for a long time before her trembling thumb finally tapped the message open.

For a second, the words refused to register. They sat there, cold and sharp, as if deliberately waiting for her to fully understand them before cutting her open.

‘Don’t ever come near me again. From today onward, you no longer exist in my life. You’re fired. Everything that belongs to you here will be sent to your apartment today. Don’t contact me again.’

Her breath caught violently in her throat.

She read it again. And again.

“No…” she whispered hoarsely, shaking her head against the pillow. “No, no, no…”

The phone slipped from her fingers and landed on the bed beside her with a soft thud. Her eyes burned, but the tears didn’t come immediately.

It felt as if her body had frozen, as though even crying required strength she no longer had.

Fired.

Cast out.

Erased.

After everything she had done for him. After five years of clinging to him like her entire life depended on it.

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 99: The Hidden Truths

    Emerson had learned, over the years, that the most dangerous threats rarely announced themselves loudly. They arrived quietly, buried beneath routine, hidden inside patterns most people were too distracted to notice.That was why he trusted unease more than certainty. And right now, unease followed him like a shadow.He did not tell Eva what he was doing.Not yet.Outwardly, everything remained normal. He showed up to work. He attended meetings. He listened when Eva spoke about restructuring plans and future projections. But beneath that calm exterior, he was pulling threads, one by one, careful not to unravel anything too quickly.He started with old contacts—people he had met during his years of international consultancy, regulatory oversight, and crisis management.Men and women who worked in places that never appeared on business cards. People who asked questions without recording them and answered without leaving traces.He sent short messages. Made discreet calls. Used channels

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 98: When Work Becomes Shelter

    Eva returned to work the way some people returned to prayer, not because it erased pain, but because it gave pain somewhere to sit without destroying everything else.The Mills Corporation headquarters buzzed with its usual controlled urgency the morning she walked in. Polished floors reflected ceiling lights. Staff greeted her with respectful nods.Nothing had changed here. That steadiness was exactly why she came.If she stayed home, her mind would wander.If she stayed idle, memories would become loud.So she chose movement. Purpose. Structure.Her heels clicked against the marble floor as she walked into the executive wing, posture straight, expression composed. To anyone watching, Eva Mills looked like a woman fully in control of her life.Only she knew how much discipline it took to hold that line.Inside her office, the glass walls let in soft morning light. The city stretched beyond the windows—alive, indifferent, moving forward without apology. She paused briefly, placing her

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 97: The Man on Hoodies

    Bradley did not hear the news the way people usually did.There was no dramatic phone call in the middle of the night, no frantic knock on his door, no voice breaking through tears. It came to him in the most ordinary way possible, through his assistant, standing stiffly by the office door, voice low and unsure, as though afraid the words might shatter something if spoken too loudly.“Sir… Amira Finley passed away early this morning.”That was all.No elaboration. No condolences yet. Just the fact, laid bare.Bradley did not respond.He simply sat there, his body frozen in the leather chair, eyes fixed on a point on the wall that meant nothing. The world around him seemed to dim, as though someone had slowly turned down the lights.The assistant waited for a few seconds, then a few more. When it became clear no response was coming, he quietly stepped out and closed the door behind him.Bradley was alone.Minutes passed. Or maybe hours. He could not tell.Guilt came first.Not grief. N

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 96: The Weight of Quiet Endings

    The news did not break like thunder.It arrived slowly, almost politely, slipping into the city like early morning harmattan fog—thick, cold, unavoidable.By mid-morning, it was everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Not the kind of news that made sirens scream or crowds gather, but the kind that sat heavy on people’s chests once they read it.AMIRA FINLEY CONFIRMED DEAD AT 4:12 A.M.The headline appeared on blogs first. Then business news pages picked it up. Then gossip sites twisted it. By afternoon, it had filtered into every corner of social media.Reactions came in waves, conflicting and uncomfortable.Some posts were filled with sympathy.‘So young. May her soul rest in peace.’‘Life is truly unpredictable.’Others were colder.‘Karma is real.’‘If only people knew the full story.’A few were cruelly celebratory, thinly disguised as moral lessons.‘You reap what you sow.’And then there were those who said nothing at all, choosing silence over opinion, as if even typing her na

    The crash came quietly.Not with alarms blaring or frantic shouting at first, but with a subtle, almost cruel stillness that crept into the ICU in the early hours of the morning.The kind of stillness that made nurses exchange quick looks, the kind that made a seasoned doctor pause for half a second longer than usual before checking a monitor again.Amira’s chest rose… then fell.Then it rose again, but barely.Her breathing, which had been shallow all night, suddenly became uneven, like someone trying to climb out of deep water with failing strength.The steady rhythm of the machine beside her faltered, numbers dipping, struggling to hold on.A nurse noticed first.“Doctor,” she called softly, but there was urgency beneath her calm. “Her oxygen saturation is dropping.”Within seconds, the room filled again. Shoes moved quickly but quietly across the polished floor. Curtains were drawn tighter. A doctor stepped closer to the bed, his face already set in a way that suggested he knew wh

  • Ex-Husband's Irrevocable Mistake   Chapter 94: “Did Eva Sleep Well?”

    Morning crept in quietly, the kind of morning that looked innocent enough to deceive anyone willing to believe it. Sunlight filtered through the thin curtains of the bedroom, touching the edges of the neatly made bed, resting briefly on Eva’s face before she stirred.She opened her eyes slowly, not startled, not rushed, yet there was a tightness in her chest she couldn’t explain. It felt like waking from a dream whose details were gone but whose weight remained.She lay there for a moment, listening.The apartment was too quiet.Usually, Emerson moved around early in the mornings, soft footsteps, the faint clink of a mug against the counter, the low hum of the kettle. Today, everything seemed delayed, like the day itself was holding its breath.Eva turned on her side and found him standing by the window, fully dressed, phone in hand, his brows drawn together in a way she had come to recognize too well.“Morning,” she said, her voice gentle, testing the air between them.He turned imme
