He Chose Me

Rain continued pouring across the riverbank while silence settled heavily after Gregory’s ultimatum, because even the armed men standing behind him seemed to understand the weight of what had just been placed in front of Damian. The city lights reflected faintly across the dark water beside the loading dock while tension spread through the storm-soaked air hard enough to make breathing feel difficult, and somewhere beneath the pain pulsing through my side, I realized this moment was

  • He Divorced Me… But I Was Never His To Lose(regret & desire)   CHAPTER 77

    Damian Walked Back Into Hart GlobalThe convoy moved through Manhattan beneath a sky still heavy from the storm while Hart Global headquarters rose across the city like a blade of black glass cutting into the night, every executive floor illuminated as financial reporters, shareholders, and board members flooded the building for what Gregory believed would become the final public removal of Damian Hart.Inside the armored SUV, silence settled heavily between all of us while the city lights moved across Damian’s face in shifting reflections.He sat beside me in the rear seat wearing the same black suit Lucien had brought from the penthouse reserves, though now that we were no longer inside the operating room, the physical strain he was carrying had become far more obvious. The controlled stillness around him remained intact, but every few minutes his breathing slowed carefully like he was managing waves of pain before they fully surfaced.The portable cardiac monitor hidden discreetly

    Gregory Chose The Wrong SuccessorThe words landed across the operating room heavily enough that even the nurses stopped moving for a moment while Lucien stared down at the message on his phone screen.“Gregory just announced your replacement.”Damian’s expression did not change immediately, but I saw the shift anyway in the slight tightening near his jaw and the stillness that settled through him so completely it almost seemed unnatural.Alexander stepped forward first.“Who?”Lucien looked up slowly.“Victor Kane.”The atmosphere in the room changed instantly.Not confusion.Recognition.Even the surgeon standing beside Damian’s portable monitor frowned slightly, as if he had heard the name before somewhere unpleasant.Damian gave a quiet breath through his nose before looking toward Lucien again.“Of course he did.”I looked between them.“Who is Victor Kane?”Lucien answered without taking his eyes off Damian.“Gregory’s most loyal executive fixer.”Alexander’s expression hardene

    The Vote Started Without HimThe tension inside the operating room sharpened immediately after Lucien spoke, because until that moment there had still been the illusion of time left between Damian and Gregory. Forty minutes. Thirty. Enough space to prepare the strategy carefully.Now even that was gone.“Gregory just called for the vote to begin early.”Lucien lowered the phone slowly as the screen's glow faintly reflected across his expression.“He moved it up by twenty minutes.”Alexander’s eyes hardened at once.“He is afraid.”Damian remained very still against the elevated hospital bed while the portable cardiac monitor continued its steady rhythm beside him, though I noticed the subtle tightening near his jaw immediately.Not panic.Calculation accelerating.“He knows something shifted,” Damian said quietly.Lucien nodded.“Probably because several board members stopped responding to him after the first Zurich leak started circulating internally.”One of the nurses looked confus

    Gregory Walked Into The TrapThe room remained silent for several seconds after Damian spoke, because the certainty in his voice carried the kind of finality that made even Lucien stop moving for a moment while the cardiac monitor beside the hospital bed continued its steady rhythm beneath the surgical lights.“I am ending this tonight.”No one questioned whether he meant it.The real problem was whether his body could survive it.The surgeon standing near the monitor finally exhaled sharply through his nose before removing his gloves with visible frustration.“I need all of you to understand something very clearly,” he said while looking directly at Damian. “You are functioning right now because your body is flooded with adrenaline, stimulants, emergency cardiac medication, and pure survival instinct. The second any of that drops, you are going to feel every injury you ignored tonight all at once.”Damian listened quietly.Then gave a slight nod.“I know.”The answer somehow made the

    “I Am Ending This Tonight”The answer settled across the operating room with enough certainty to make every person inside go still for a moment, including the surgeon standing beside Damian’s monitor, who now looked like he was debating whether keeping this patient alive had technically become a medical mistake.Lucien stared at Damian carefully.“You can barely stand.”Damian rested the Zurich drive against the blanket covering his lap while the monitor beside him continued its steady rhythm beneath the surgical lights.“I do not need to stand long.”“That is not reassuring.”“It was not intended to be.”The exhaustion dragging through his voice had deepened slightly over the last several minutes, subtle enough that most people might not notice it, but after spending the entire night watching him force himself beyond every physical limit possible, I could hear the strain underneath each controlled sentence now.Even breathing seemed heavier.The surgeon heard it too.“You are not le

    The First Crack In Gregory’s EmpireThe words lingered between us long after Damian spoke them. Although the operating room remained filled with movement from nurses, surgeons, and security staff preparing for whatever happened next, the atmosphere around his hospital bed seemed to narrow into something far more personal.“If I lose tonight, Gregory comes for you next.”There was no drama in the sentence.No attempt to frighten me.That was what made it worse.Damian genuinely believed it.After everything Gregory had already done tonight, I believed it too.I kept my hand lightly around his wrist for several seconds while the monitor beside him continued its steady rhythm beneath the harsh surgical lights, and beneath my fingers I could still feel the lingering weakness in his pulse despite how controlled his expression remained.He was forcing himself forward through sheer will now.Nothing else.“You are not walking into that building tonight.”The words came quieter than before, t
