Rachel's eyelids fluttered open weakly, her throat dry and aching. The sterile scent of antiseptic filled the room and the steady beep of the heart monitor was the first thing she heard.

Her body felt heavy, every breath felt like a thorn on her flesh. She tried to lift her hands, but even that felt so painful.

She turned her head, and then she saw him. Sitting beside her bed was not her husband– it was Dominic Morello. His eyes were fixed on her.

“What…are you…doing here?” Her throat was dr

  • His Regret Began When She Let Go   Chapter 0117

    Dominic stood just beyond the outer wall, his eyes fixed on the structure ahead, his grip steady on the gun in his hand. The men in black spread out around him, moving into position with silent coordination. No one spoke. “Positions set,” one of them said quietly through the comm.Dominic didn’t look away from the building. “We move now.”The first gunshot shattered the air. Then another followed, and another, until the silence of the compound collapsed into chaos. Guards scrambled, voices rose, and the sound of bullets striking metal and stone echoed through every corner of the estate.Inside, a guard rushed into Smithfield’s study without knocking. “Sir—”Smithfield turned sharply, irritation flashing across his face before it shifted into something more focused. “What is it?”“We’re surrounded,” the guard said quickly, his breathing uneven.Before Smithfield could respond, a series of gunshots rang out from outside, louder and closer than before. The windows trembled slightly wit

    Rachel eyes opened, her body heavy in a way that didn’t feel like rest. She didn’t move, her mind suspended between sleep and awareness, until something pulled her fully into reality.Her eyes snapped open immediately. Bryce.nHis arm was wrapped tightly around her waist, his face buried slightly near her shoulder as if he had settled there comfortably during the night. The closeness felt suffocating, unwanted, and wrong in every possible way.Rachel reacted instantly. She shoved his arm off her with force, pushing herself away from him as she stood up from the bed in one sharp movement. The distance between them came quickly, but it didn’t feel like enough. Bryce stirred at the sudden movement, his eyes opening slowly as he adjusted to the light.He said nothing.Rachel didn’t look at him. Her eyes moved around the room instead, scanning the walls, the window she couldn’t open, the door that never stayed unlocked long enough. Anywhere but him.Bryce sat up slowly, watching her. “Ra

    Rachel let out a soft laugh, one that carried no fear and no hesitation, only a calm certainty.Smithfield watched her closely as she tilted her head slightly, as though the request he had just made was not a test but a formality.“If that is what you need to prove I am loyal,” she said lightly, her voice steady, almost amused, “then so be it.”For a brief moment, even Bryce glanced at Smithfield, as though unsure whether to intervene, but Smithfield only folded his arms and observed her like a man watching a conclusion he had already predicted.The guard standing beside Rachel stiffened slightly, his posture alert now, sensing something dangerous in the ease of her tone.Rachel turned her head slowly toward him, her expression unreadable, then she reached for the gun being offered without shaking, without pause, as though it had always belonged in her hand.The weight of it settled against her palm, cold and familiar in a way that made the room feel even quieter.Smithfield’s voice c

    The door opened with a soft mechanical click that broke the silence.Rachel did not turn immediately. She allowed her expression to settle into something neutral, something unreadable, before she finally shifted her gaze toward the entrance. Bryce stepped in slowly, like he had already rehearsed how this moment should look, how he should stand, how he should breathe, how he should exist in the same space as her without immediately exposing the tension underneath it.His eyes moved over her, first searching for cracks in whatever story Smithfield believed she had accepted.Rachel tilted her head slightly, just enough to appear curious rather than guarded.Bryce stopped a few steps away from her. “You’ve been quiet,” he said softly.Rachel let a faint breath escape her lips, controlled and deliberate. “There isn’t much to say,” she replied, her tone light enough to sound almost detached.Bryce studied her longer this time, his gaze sharpening as he stepped closer. “Smithfield said you

    Rachel did not move immediately after the door shut behind Smithfield.Her hands rested loosely at her sides, but her fingers were not relaxed. They curled slowly, tightening inch by inch as the weight of everything settled into something sharp and focused inside her chest.She inhaled slowly, controlling the rise and fall of her breathing. Fear was still there, but it was no longer leading. It had shifted, forced into the background by something stronger.Smithfield thought he had her cornered. He thought he had broken her with truth twisted into poison. He thought he had planted enough doubt about Dominic to make her unstable, emotional, easy to guide.That was his first mistake. Rachel lifted her head slightly, her gaze sharpening as her thoughts aligned into something clear.If she fought him openly, she would lose. He had control of the space, the people, the movement, everything that mattered physically.But control was not always about force. It was about perception, and right

    Dominic did not wait once he stepped out of the library.The silence of the empty building still clung to him, but now it had hardened into something sharper, something urgent that refused to let him stand still for even a second. Rachel was gone, and every instinct in him was screaming that time was already slipping too far ahead.He pulled out his phone as he walked, his steps quick, controlled, but driven by something that sat just beneath the surface of his composure.5 number was still on his call log.He pressed it. The line rang once. Then the same calm voice answered. “That was faster than I expected”Dominic didn’t waste a second. “You said you knew where she is,” he said, his tone flat but edged with urgency. “Start talking.”A soft pause followed. “Straight to the point,” the man replied. “Good. That makes this easier.”Dominic’s jaw tightened. “Her location?”“Patience,” the man said calmly. “You agreed to cooperate. That means you follow instructions.”Dominic stopped wa

    Rachel drove back to the mansion with her jaw set and her thoughts colliding. Smithfield’s words replayed in her mind, each one heavier than the last. By the time the gates opened and she stepped out of her car, anger had settled into something colder.The house was unusually quiet when she entere

    Rachel stood in front of the long, polished conference table, her back straight and her posture calm. This was it—the moment she had been waiting for, the first time she would address the company that she had silently built over the years. The reveal party had marked the beginning of her leadersh

    Marissa had been waiting for Bryce since dawn. She heard the car in the driveway and straightened from the sofa, smoothing invisible wrinkles from her dress. By the time Bryce stepped into the living room, she already had a smile prepared. “You came home late,” she said. Bryce walked past her t

    The elevator opened and Rachel stepped out quickly, her head down. Her eyes still burned, and she knew she looked terrible. There was no way she could walk into a board meeting like this.She turned toward the executive restroom. Inside, she faced the mirror and froze. Mascara stains, red eyes, sha
