His Doctor Bride 227
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty SevenThe morning felt calm in a way Aria wasn’t used to anymore.Not because everything was perfect, but because nothing was rushing her. No urgent thoughts, no need to push anything aside just to get through the day. It was quiet, steady and almost gentle.She sat at the dining table across from her father, a plate of breakfast in front of her that she hadn’t touched much yet. The smell of tea filled the room, familiar and comforting, the kind of small detail that usually helped her settle into her day.But today, she wasn’t thinking about work.Her fingers rested loosely around the spoon in her hand, her gaze lowered slightly as if she was gathering her thoughts before speaking. She had been quiet since she came into the room, and her father had noticed. He always did.He didn’t interrupt her immediately. He simply watched her for a moment, his expression calm, patient, waiting for her to speak when she was ready.And she was.“Dad… there’s something

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty SixThe ride back home felt longer than usual.Aria sat by the window of the taxi, her gaze fixed on the passing streets, but she wasn’t really seeing them. The city moved like it always did—cars passing, people crossing, life continuing without pause—but none of it settled her the way it normally would.She wasn’t restless.She wasn’t overwhelmed.But her mind wasn’t quiet either.It moved slowly, carefully, like it was trying to understand something it had avoided for too long.By the time the taxi stopped in front of her building, she barely noticed how long the ride had taken. She paid the driver, stepped out, and walked inside without hesitation, her movements steady, her expression unchanged.Everything about her looked the same.But inside, something had already started shifting.Her apartment greeted her with the same calm it always did. Clean. Organized. Predictable. The kind of space she had built for herself after everything had fallen apart.

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty FiveThe plane had already taken off by the time Damien finally allowed himself to settle into the quiet.Not the kind that came from absence.The kind that came when there was nothing left to do.No decisions to make. No conversations waiting. No room to turn back.Just time.He sat by the window, his seat slightly reclined, one hand resting loosely against the armrest while the other stayed still on his lap. The low hum of the aircraft filled the space around him, steady and consistent, almost enough to drown out everything else.Almost.Outside, the sky stretched endlessly, clouds layered beneath them like something distant and untouched. He wasn’t really looking at anything in particular, but his gaze stayed there anyway.Still.Focused.Not because he was trying to escape his thoughts.But because he wasn’t avoiding them either.For the first time in a long while, he let everything come as it was.No resistance.No defense.Just honesty.Minnesota h

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty FourAria didn’t make the decision all at once.It didn’t come like urgency or panic or some sudden rush of emotion she couldn’t control. It came slowly, building through the quiet moments she couldn’t ignore anymore. The way her father’s words had stayed with her. The way the memory of that evening kept replaying—not what she said, but how quickly she had said it. How certain she had been, without giving him space to speak.She had gone to bed that night thinking it would pass.It didn’t.The next morning, she told herself to focus on work. Patients, reports, schedules—things that made sense, things she could control. And she did. She showed up the way she always did. Steady. Composed. Reliable.But somewhere in between conversations and consultations, her mind kept drifting back to him.Not the version she had known before.Not the man who had hurt her.The one she saw now.The one who didn’t argue.The one who didn’t push.The one who had simply… left

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty-ThreeAria stayed beside her father for a while after helping him sit, her attention fully on him as she reached for the glass of water on the table and handed it over. Her movements were careful, practiced, the kind that came from years of knowing exactly what to do in situations like this. But beneath that calm surface, something inside her had already begun to shift.“Drink slowly,” she said, watching him closely as he took a few small sips.“I’m alright,” he replied after a moment, though his voice carried a tired edge. He leaned back slightly, letting out a quiet breath before glancing at her again. “You worry too much.”Aria didn’t respond to that. She just adjusted the cushion behind him and reached for the small paper bag on the table, pulling out the medication inside. Her brows pulled together slightly as she looked at it.“These aren’t from your usual pharmacy,” she said, more to herself than to him.Her father followed her gaze and smiled fai

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty-TwoBy the time Aria got home, the evening had settled into a quiet calm that usually brought her comfort. The street outside was familiar, the kind of place where nothing ever felt out of place, where routines stayed predictable and life moved in a steady, manageable rhythm.She stepped inside, closing the door gently behind her before slipping off her shoes. The house greeted her the way it always did—still, neat, unchanged. It should have felt grounding.But it didn’t.Her eyes moved instinctively toward the living room, then the hallway, then the small corner where her father usually sat after his evening walks.Empty.She paused for a second, her brows pulling together slightly.“Dad?” she called out, her voice carrying lightly through the house.No response.That wasn’t unusual. He often took his time during those walks, sometimes stopping to talk to neighbors or just enjoying the evening air longer than planned. But something about today felt… dif

---Chapter Fifty EightThe door opened without a knock.Aria had just stepped out of the bathroom, her hair still wet, water sliding down her neck. She had wrapped the towel around herself tightly, already tired, already ready to sleep on the floor like she always did. The room smelled of soap and

Chapter Fifty FiveAria sat across from Richard in his study, her hands folded tightly on her lap. The room smelled faintly of old books and polished wood. The curtains were half drawn, letting in a soft afternoon glow. Richard sat behind his large desk, his glasses resting low on his nose as he st

Chapter Fifty Six“Please, Clara,” Damien said softly into the phone. His voice was lower than usual, almost careful. He stood near the window, the small black box resting in his palm. He kept opening it, closing it, then opening it again, his thumb brushing over the ring inside. “We haven’t gone o

Chapter Fifty FourAria stepped quietly into the room. The window was wide open, and a cold wind swept in, carrying the faint scent of the garden outside. Damien was asleep on the bed, uncovered. The blanket he had refused earlier lay crumpled beside him.She froze for a moment, watching him. He l
