Lisa’s POV

The cab ride home from Le Ciel was a blur, the city’s lights smearing past like tears I refused to let fall.

Hana’s words cut through me— I won't lie—her smirk burned into my brain. My chest ached, a mix of hurt and fury and I clutched my purse to calm myself.

I’d been so sure about Kaito—but now I'm left with shame.

The driver glanced at me in the rearview, but I kept my face turned to the window, my breath fogging the glass and london’s cold night matching the chill in my heart.

I stumbled into my apartment, kicking off my heels and putting on my indoor slippers. The place was dark, the city skyline glinting through the windows, and it felt empty.

I hung and my coat and heard my phone buzz in my bag.

It was Kaito, again.

I pulled it out, his text glowing:

“Lisa, please, let’s talk. I need to explain.”

My stomach twisted, anger flaring. Explain what? That he was married? That I was just a “detour,” like Hana said?

Or was this another one of Hana’s sick plank? Is she m

  • He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!   Chapter 179: THE FINALE

    Aaliyah’s POV ONE MONTH LATER I stood in front of the mirror, my hands fumbling behind me as I tried to pull the zipper of my dress up. The satin fabric kept slipping through my fingers and I could hear my own frustrated sighs filling the quiet room. My cheeks were flushed already, not from the make-up, but from the sheer struggle of trying to get myself together. It was supposed to be a simple thing; zip the dress, adjust the neckline and fix the bouquet. But of course, my nerves wouldn’t let me. The sound of a knock at the door startled me. I froze, my hands halfway at my back, when the door opened just enough for Orrin to poke his head in. “You done yet?” he asked, his voice warm but teasing. I quickly straightened, caught like a child doing something silly. “Almost,” I mumbled. He stepped inside fully and when his eyes fell on me, his brows lifted. I could see the curve of a smile tugging at his lips. “Almost? Looks like you’re fighting a war with that zi

  • He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!   Chapter 178

    Aaliyah’s POV I almost couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Just moments ago, I had been sitting alone in the living room, staring at nothing with my fingers brushing against my lips where his mouth had touched me earlier. I’d replayed it in my head a hundred times already, wondering if I was foolish, wondering if maybe I had imagined the way his chest had tightened against mine. And now… now he was here. At my door. His tall figure filled the doorway, his eyes locked on mine. For a moment, I forgot how to breathe. Then his voice came, deep, steady, and desperate. “Take me to a hospital. Like you asked before. Please. I want my real memories back.” My heart jumped violently. My lips parted. “What?” I whispered, almost afraid I hadn’t heard him right. He didn’t waver. His jaw tightened, and he repeated the words slowly. “I said take me to a hospital. I need my real memories back. There’s no time.” No time. His urgency pulled me back into motion. My chest rose and fell quickly,

  • He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!   Chapter 177

    Orrin’s POV“Babe, what were you doing that you didn’t open quicker?”Annabelle stood by the door with that always bright little smile of hers, her dark eyes roaming the room. My throat felt dry; I cleared it and forced out a reply.“I was sleeping, sweetheart.”Her brows pinched slightly as her gaze landed on the table. The untouched plate sat there like proof of my lie. Her smile lingered, but it had a faint edge to it.“Sleeping? Then who was that for?” she asked, pointing to the meal.I leaned back in the chair, willing myself to stay calm. “It was mine. But then I lost my appetite and felt tired so I went to have a short nap.”She stepped closer, her voice softening. “I told you to wait for me before we eat. Maybe that’s why you lost your appetite, trying to eat without me.”A small laugh left me, though my chest was heavy. “Maybe. Should I dish yours out too?”Her eyes brightened immediately, as if nothing was off. “Yes, please. I’ve been starving all day.”I stood, brushing pa

  • He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!   Chapter 176

    Aaliyah’s POVI didn’t know what to feel or even what to say. My throat was tight, my mind racing with thoughts that only made my chest heavier. Should I tell him everything, spill it all out once and for all? Or should I hold on just a little longer, afraid that if I told him too much, he’d push me away again?He must have seen something in my face because he gave a small nod, almost as if to dismiss the moment. “Forget it,” he muttered. “I’m probably just being paranoid.”My heart sank.He turned slightly toward the table, his voice calmer now. “Just… enjoy your meal. I’ll leave you to it.” He started walking away.“Screw it,” I whispered under my breath, before my courage could fail me.I reached out quickly and grabbed his hand. His steps faltered. He looked down at my hand holding his, then back at my face, confusion in his eyes.“Should I tell you why?” I blurted. “Should I tell you who it is you don’t remember?”His body stilled. Slowly, he turned fully to me, his brows draw

  • He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!   Chapter 175

    Aaliyah’s POVMy heart pounded so loudly I feared he could hear it. Could it be…? Did something break through that fog in his mind? His eyes were narrowed, brows pinched like he was fighting with himself, struggling to remember something.I swallowed hard, trying to control my voice. “Where… where have you seen this ring before?” I asked, holding my hand steady.He rubbed his temples, almost as if the effort to remember was physically painful. His jaw clenched. “I don’t know. I’m trying to place it. I’ve seen it before… I know I have.”My pulse quickened. “Did you… maybe… gift it to someone?”The moment the words left my mouth, recognition flickered across his face. His eyes widened and for a second, hope surged in me so strongly it almost made me dizzy.“You’re right,” he murmured, almost to himself. “Yes. I did give it to someone.”I held my breath. My nails dug into my palm under the table. “You did?”Slowly, he lifted his gaze back to me. “Yes. But… how do you know that?” His v

  • He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!   Chapter 174

    Aaliyah’s POV I heard footsteps approach the door. Each one felt like it was crushing against my chest, heavier, louder, until my heart was no longer beating at a normal pace but pounding like a drum. My palms grew damp and I pressed them against the sides of my dress, trying to calm myself, but it was no use. I could hear my own breathing in my ears.The lock clicked, and then the door finally opened.His eyes met mine.I froze. Just like that, every word I had rehearsed in my head vanished. He stood there, taller than I remembered, his frame filling the doorway. His eyes darkened almost immediately when recognition hit—or maybe not recognition, just annoyance. His brows pulled together in a frown.“What are you doing here?” His voice was firm, guarded, the kind of tone meant to chase someone away.I forced a smile, though my lips trembled. “I came to apologize for earlier.”His gaze didn’t soften. If anything, it grew sharper, like he didn’t believe me for a second. But after a m
