Six months had passed since that critical night in Zurich. A cool autumn had settled over a quiet private physiotherapy clinic on the outskirts of Geneva. Inside the rehabilitation room overlooking a garden where the maple leaves had turned crimson, Charlie stood with his weight supported by a pair of parallel bars.

The white linen shirt he wore no longer hung loosely from his frame. Thanks to a strict diet, intensive pulmonary treatment, and relentless physical rehabilitation, the body that ha

  • His Biggest Regret Was Me   Chapter 101: The Strategic Retreat

    The afternoon slowly faded as the car driven by Charlie cut through the heavy traffic of City B, heading toward the five-star hotel where he was staying during his time in the city.As soon as he arrived, Charlie strode confidently into the grand hotel lobby, its marble floors reflecting the glow of the crystal chandeliers overhead.However, his steps came to a halt when his eyes caught sight of a tall man in a gray suit standing calmly near the main pillar.Ray—his personal assistant from Zurich—was already there.Charlie was slightly surprised to find his trusted aide had appeared without any prior notice."Ray, have you been waiting long?" Charlie asked as he closed the distance between them.Ray bowed respectfully with an exceptionally measured gesture. "It's no problem, Mr. Vane. I know your schedule has been extremely hectic lately.""Why didn't you contact me before flying here?" Charlie asked as he adjusted the position of his watch."I was worried that if I contacted you with

    A soft chuckle came from the other end of the phone. The voice sounded coquettish, yet to Charlie's ears, every intonation felt cold and piercing.“Why do you have to sound so tense whenever you receive a call from your own fiancée, Mr. Vane?” she asked, followed by a sigh that sounded deliberately mocking.Charlie tightened his fingers around the metal balcony railing, staring out at the expanse of skyscrapers in City B from the upper floors of Aethel Corp.“Stevani, I'm busy,” Charlie said flatly, emphasizing each syllable with unmistakable firmness. “If you don't have anything crucial to say, I'll end this call right now.”“Oh, busy?” Stevani whispered sarcastically from the other end. “Busy taking care of and looking after your poor ex-wife?”Charlie fell silent.He chose not to respond. He knew perfectly well that indulging the jealousy of that heiress would only provoke a lengthy confrontation that would benefit no one.“Mr. Vane, don't pretend you've forgotten,” Stevani continu

  • His Biggest Regret Was Me   Chapter 99: The Eclipse of Truth

    For the first time in his life, Charlie fed Elena until she finished every last spoonful of the warm turnip porridge. Watching the woman he loved so deeply obediently accept each bite brought a faint sense of peace to his heart.If caring for her and devoting himself to her like this could atone for his sins while easing the regret over their past, Charlie swore he would do it without stopping until Elena's memories had fully returned.Before they knew it, the black sedan had come to a stop right in front of the grand entrance of an international school.A bodyguard immediately hurried over to open the door. Leo was preparing to get out of the car. However, before actually stepping outside, the boy turned around, wrapped his arms around Elena's neck, and planted an affectionate kiss on his mother's cheek."Mommy, I'm going to school now, okay?" Leo whispered cheerfully."Be careful in class, sweetheart," Elena replied as she gently caressed her son's smooth cheek.Before Leo could ste

    After being trapped in a tense silence for several minutes, Elena slowly closed the lid of the black box again. Her slender fingers hesitantly brushed over its surface before she finally placed it back inside the secret compartment in the lower corner of the walk-in closet.She slid the door of the magnificent wardrobe shut, turned the lock, and let out a long, heavy sigh.“I’d better stop pushing my mind any further...” Elena muttered as she massaged her throbbing temples.The side effects of forcing her brain’s nerve cells to work beyond their limits were beginning to surface. Elena wearily walked toward the vanity, took the bottle of medicine given to her by the medical team from her suitcase, and swallowed a tablet with a sip of water.The head of Aethel Corp then lay down on the soft king-size bed. She closed her eyes and slowly regulated her breathing, trying to relax her entire body.Yet behind her closed eyelids, the mystery surrounding Charlie continued to spin endlessly in h

    Two weeks passed in a state of relatively fragile calm. Today, Elena’s hospitalization at the international hospital officially came to an end. The medical team overseeing her recovery had given the head of Aethel Corp the green light to return home. Although her long-term memory remained blank, her physical condition and neurological stability had shown significant improvement.Elena let out a relieved breath as she stepped out of the hospital lobby. An overwhelming sense of happiness flooded her chest at the thought of finally being able to hold Leo in her arms again at home.As for her suspicion regarding Charlie’s identity, which she had accidentally overheard two weeks ago, Elena chose to keep it to herself for the time being. She intended to investigate the truth on her own without arousing anyone’s suspicion.Aria drove the black sedan carrying Elena through the city streets. Not long afterward, the magnificent rows of pillars at the Victoria mansion came into view, welcoming t

    Their eyes remained locked in a suffocating silence that seemed to grow heavier by the second. The distance between them had been completely erased. Charlie’s breath even managed to penetrate the thin fabric of Elena’s hospital gown, sending a faint, unfamiliar tremor along the woman’s nerves. Meanwhile, Charlie’s heartbeat thundered violently in his chest, racing in a rhythm he could no longer conceal.Charlie was the first to break free from the spell that had nearly stripped him of control. With what little self-control he still possessed, he slowly loosened his embrace before supporting Elena by both arms to keep her from losing her balance.“Madam Elena... are you all right?” Charlie asked. His voice sounded hoarse and heavy.Elena jolted. The sudden warmth burning across both her cheeks made her hurriedly straighten herself. She removed her hands from Charlie’s broad shoulders, then turned her face firmly toward the plain white-painted wall.“No,” Elena replied curtly, shaking h
