He Divorced Me… But I Was Never His To Lose(regret & desire) CHAPTER 59
“We Found Another Bullet”The moment the surgeon stepped out of the operating room covered in blood, every conversation inside the underground corridor stopped instantly.Even the mechanical hum of the facility suddenly seemed louder.My heart dropped so violently that for one terrifying second I could barely breathe at all because the expression on the surgeon’s face looked wrong. Not panicked exactly. Worse.Grim.Controlled.The kind of expression doctors wore when they were trying very hard not to alarm people before delivering bad news.Alexander straightened immediately near the observation windows while Lucien lowered the phone still pressed against his ear.“What happened?”The surgeon removed one of his blood-stained gloves slowly before answering.“We found another bullet fragment.”Cold spread sharply through my chest.Another one?The surgeon nodded once, exhaustion already visible beneath his eyes despite the surgery barely beginning.“It lodged deeper than the scans ori

While Damian SleptThe silence after the surgical elevator doors closed felt almost violent.For the first time all night, no gunshots were echoing nearby. No explosions shaking the floor beneath my feet. No freezing river trying to drag us under. Just the low mechanical hum of the underground facility and the distant sound of surgeons shouting instructions somewhere beyond the steel elevator doors that had taken Damian away from me.And somehow that silence terrified me more.Because now there was nothing left distracting me from the truth.Damian might not survive the night.The realization settled heavily into my chest while I stood motionless beneath the harsh fluorescent lighting of the underground surgical bay, soaked clothes clinging uncomfortably to my skin while freezing river water continued dripping slowly onto the concrete floor around me.Everything hurt.My side still burned from the earlier wound Gregory’s men caused at the warehouse, exhaustion pulled through every par

The Empire Damian Never WantedThe convoy tore through the storm-drenched streets of Brooklyn at terrifying speed while sirens echoed across the empty roads ahead, but even surrounded by armed security vehicles and flashing emergency lights, I still could not stop replaying Alexander Hart’s last words inside my head.Everything I built.The sentence sat heavily in my chest because suddenly the violence tonight no longer felt random or impulsive. Gregory was not simply obsessed with power.He was protecting stolen power.And Damian…Damian had unknowingly spent his entire life standing between Gregory and the empire he believed belonged to him.Rain hammered against the armored SUV windows while the city blurred past outside in streaks of silver and black. Across from me, Alexander remained completely composed despite the chaos unfolding around us, one hand resting calmly against the leather armrest while security updates continued flashing across the tablet positioned near him.How co

The Man Who Was Supposed To Be DeadFor one disorienting second, I genuinely thought exhaustion and hypothermia were finally making me hallucinate, because the moment the older man introduced himself as Alexander Hart, every thought inside my head seemed to stop beneath the sound of rain crashing violently across the Brooklyn dock.That was impossible.Alexander Hart was dead.Everyone knew that.Every article.Every interview.Every piece of Hart Global history repeated the same story over the last eight years: the legendary founder of the Hart empire died after a private aviation accident in the Swiss Alps, leaving Gregory Hart to step in as acting chairman before eventually taking full control of the company.The entire business world mourned him.Memorials were held.Stocks crashed.Even Damian once referenced losing his father years ago during one of the rare moments he ever spoke honestly about his family.And yet now…Alexander Hart stood directly in front of me beneath the sto

Damian Hart’s FatherThe entire dock seemed to fall silent the moment the older man spoke, because even beneath the storm, beneath the shouting medics and flashing emergency lights reflecting across the rain-soaked concrete, the authority in his voice carried the kind of weight that made people obey first and question later.“Get my son into surgery now.”The medical team moved immediately afterward.No hesitation.No confusion.Several trauma surgeons rushed forward from the line of black vehicles parked near the dock while security closed tightly around the emergency stretchers, shielding Damian from the freezing rain as they pushed him toward the waiting convoy.But I could barely process any of it because my attention remained fixed completely on the man standing near the edge of the dock.My son.Not nephew.Not Damian Hart.Son.The realization hit me slowly through the exhaustion and shock still clouding my mind from the river because until now, Damian had never once mentioned

The Man On The DockThe rescue boats reached us seconds later, though by then I could barely feel my hands anymore from the freezing river water wrapped around us like ice. The storm still battered the surface violently while emergency lights from the Brooklyn dock cut through the darkness ahead, turning the rain into streaks of white against the black river.“Pull them in.”Several voices shouted across the water while rescue workers leaned dangerously over the sides of the inflatable crafts reaching toward us with harness lines and thermal blankets.Lucien grabbed the nearest rope first before helping shove Ava toward the rescue team while the guards secured the remaining flotation packs behind us, but I barely processed any of it because all my attention stayed fixed entirely on Damian.He was still conscious.Barely.His head rested weakly against my shoulder while freezing water dragged heavily against both of us, and every breath leaving him sounded thinner now than the one befo
