He Ignored My Calls. I Canceled Our Wedding Chapter 10
Nathan stared at me for a long moment.“You want me to publicly correct everything?”“Yes.”“And hand over the records to the lawyers?”“Yes.”His expression tightened.“If this turns into a formal investigation, Chloe could lose her career.”I almost smiled.There it was.Not anger. Not outrage over what she had done.Concern for her.“She used my work under her own name, mishandled client projects, and reused protected concepts after I left. If she crossed legal or contractual lines, then the consequences belong to her.”Nathan looked away.“She made mistakes, but she's still young.”“And what about me?”His eyes returned to mine.“What about the career she took credit for? What about the clients I spent years building? What about the wedding she turned into her portfolio while I was still supposed to be the bride?”Nathan flinched.I stepped closer.“You said you would do anything to prove you've changed.”“I would.”“Then do this.”He was silent.That silence told me everything.Af

“I know you're still angry with me,” Nathan said. “But I finally understand what I did wrong. I'll deal with the company, sell my share if I have to, and move here. We can forget everything that happened and start over.”He sounded so certain that I almost smiled.“Are you really giving up the company for me, Nathan?”He hesitated.“Or is the company already falling apart?”The confidence disappeared from his face.I hadn't been following the company since I left, but I was still in touch with several former coworkers. Over the past month, they had told me enough to understand what was happening.The first major project Chloe took over after my departure had been a disaster.It was a three-day wedding at a private vineyard, one of the largest contracts the company had signed that year. Chloe changed several parts of my original production schedule because she thought they were unnecessarily complicated.She moved the floral installation back by six hours.She replaced one of my longtim

Nathan looked different on the screen.The confidence he had worn so easily when I left was gone. His hair was slightly disheveled, dark circles sat beneath his eyes, and even his voice sounded tired.“Emma, can we stop this now?”I frowned.“It’s been weeks. I know you're still angry, but five years doesn't disappear because we had one terrible fight.”I almost laughed.Even now, he was still calling it a fight.Nathan leaned back against the sofa and rubbed a hand over his face.“I didn't chase you to the airport because I thought you needed space. I knew you'd gone to Seattle, and I figured once you calmed down, we'd talk like adults.”“You knew I moved here for a job.”“I know what you said.”His wording told me everything.He still thought Aurelia was temporary. He still thought Seattle was somewhere I had gone to punish him.Before I could respond, his expression softened.“Forget all the ugly things for one night. I actually called because I have something to show you.”He turne

I had barely reached the end of the hallway when I heard footsteps behind me.“Emma, wait.”Chloe hurried toward me, still holding the bouquet from the photo shoot. Nathan followed a few steps behind her, his expression tense.She looked between us as though she had just realized something terrible had happened.“Nathan told me about the baby.” Her eyes widened with practiced concern. “I had no idea. If I had known, I never would have asked you to keep working on the wedding.”I looked at her without answering.She lowered her eyes and tightened her fingers around my bouquet.“And if you're leaving because of me, then I'll leave instead. I never wanted to come between you two.”Before I could respond, Nathan cut in.“Stop. This isn't your fault.”Chloe looked up at him. “But Emma lost her baby, canceled the wedding, and quit the company. Everyone is going to think I pushed her out.”“You didn't push anyone out.”His answer came so quickly that I almost smiled.Even after learning that

Nathan froze and stared at me for several seconds, as if he hadn't understood the words.“What did you say?”“The baby is gone.”His eyes dropped instinctively to my stomach before snapping back to my face. “No. You were fine three days ago. You've been coming to work every day.”“I wasn't fine.”The certainty in his expression began to crack. His jaw tightened as he asked, “When did it happen?”“The night I called you.”Nathan went completely still.I knew exactly which night he was remembering. I had called him three times from the bathroom floor while pain tore through my abdomen. The first call had gone to voicemail. He declined the second. On the third, he finally answered, but I had barely managed to say his name before he cut me off.Emma, not tonight. Chloe and I are fixing the reception layout you refused to approve. If this is about the wedding again, wait until tomorrow.Then he hung up.By the time I reached the hospital, there was nothing the doctors could do.The color sl

I knocked on the door.Chloe immediately sat up from Nathan’s lap and smoothed down her skirt.“Emma, what are you doing here?”Nathan glanced toward the doorway.“How long have you been standing there?”“The operations manager said you wanted to see me.”Chloe pressed a hand to her forehead and explained softly, “I felt dizzy, so Nathan let me lie down for a while. Don’t get the wrong idea.”“She’s been standing in heels all morning,” Nathan added. “You walk in here looking like that, and who exactly are you trying to intimidate?”I ignored him.“What did you want to see me about?”Chloe reached for his hand.“Don’t scold her yet. The florist asked me how the centerpieces should be arranged today, and I didn’t know how to answer. Emma had to handle it in the end. Everyone probably thinks I’m only a creative director in name.”She had been taking photos at the time. She had handed me the tablet and told me not to bother her with minor details.Nathan looked at me.“Didn't I tell you to
