The confrontation happened in the cold, gray light of the morning.

Selin stood in the center of the living room, her shadow long and thin against the floor.

“Noah,” she said, her voice a hauntingly calm thread in the silence.

“If I asked for a divorce... would you sign the papers?”

Noah’s eyes darkened, a flinty, abyssal black as if a devil within him were slowly awakening.

For five years, he had been the one shoving divorce papers in her face, and for five years, Selin had torn them to shre

  • His Unwanted Wife (Billionaire's regret)   Chapter 7

    Upstairs in the study, Noah sat with his father. Mr. Fred Miller knew all too well that Noah hadn't loved Selin for a long time. His only goal was his son's happiness, which was why he decided to bring up the subject of divorce once again.“Son, I know your heart belongs to Rach,” Mr. Fred said, leaning back in his chair, his hands resting heavily on his cane. “If you want to divorce Selin, then just do it.”“Dad, I’m not divorcing Selin. I’ll never bring it up again,” Noah replied firmly.Mr. Fred stared at him in shock. For five years, Noah had been desperate to leave Selin, but now, he seemed like a different man.“Why the sudden change, son? What about Rach?”“Rach and I are just friends, Dad. Selin is my wife,” Noah replied simply.“Whatever makes you happy, I’ll support you,” Fred said with a sigh.Fred had always been a deeply supportive father, perhaps fueled by the lingering remorse of a tragedy long ago. When Noah was born, a massive fire had broken out at the hospital,

  • His Unwanted Wife (Billionaire's regret)   Chapter 6

    Selin stood before the mirror, smoothing the silk of her elegant white dress. It was a shroud of peace and purity—a silent, sartorial farewell to a life that had never truly belonged to her. Tonight, she wasn't just leaving a house she was orchestrating her own disappearance.Her phone buzzed against the marble vanity. A text from Noah.Noah: I’ve prepared dinner for us. Same place. Please come.Selin let out a long, weary sigh. She wondered what game he was playing now—what final thread of her heart he intended to pull. Since this would be the last time she’d ever have to look at him, she typed a short, hollow reply.Selin: I’ll be there. After the family dinner.The Miller estate was a monument to excess a sprawling penthouse of cold marble, crystal chandeliers that wept light, and a fleet of maids who bowed in a synchronized, haunting chorus.“Welcome, Mrs. Selin,” they chimed.She stepped into the foyer, her gaze falling upon her sister-in-law and mother-in-law. Usually, she woul

    The confrontation happened in the cold, gray light of the morning. Selin stood in the center of the living room, her shadow long and thin against the floor.“Noah,” she said, her voice a hauntingly calm thread in the silence. “If I asked for a divorce... would you sign the papers?”Noah’s eyes darkened, a flinty, abyssal black as if a devil within him were slowly awakening. For five years, he had been the one shoving divorce papers in her face, and for five years, Selin had torn them to shreds, weeping and begging for another chance. He never imagined the words would ever leave her lips.What is wrong with her? he asked himself, his ego stung by her sudden composure. But his inner arrogance told him this was just another one of her desperate pranks to get his attention.“Yeah,” he replied with a cruel, careless shrug. “I would.”Behind her back, Selin’s fingernails dug into the heavy vellum of the envelope. Her heart withered at his casual dismissal. He isn't even afraid of lo

    One week had crawled by like a lifetime. When the discharge papers were finally signed, Selin walked out of the hospital alone. During those seven days of recovery, the silence in her room had been deafening. There were no visits from Noah, no flowers, and no home-cooked meals. She had survived on the bland, lukewarm hospital porridge brought by the nurses—food that kept her alive but left her spirit malnourished and her body frail.While the world moved on, Selin had sat in her sterile bed, scrolling through her phone until she saw it a post from Rach Jayem.#He bought me a necklace worth millions.#The Perfect Man.The photo showed Rach glowing, a diamond serpent coiled around her neck. Beside her stood Noah, his arm draped protectively around her waist—the same arm that should have been supporting Selin as she learned to walk again after losing their child.A bitter laugh escaped Selin’s cracked lips. In five years of marriage, Noah had never bought her a diamond. Her most prize

    The hospital hallways smelled of sterile salt and panic. Noah paced the floor outside the emergency wing, his expensive suit stained with Rach’s blood and the grime of the road. His hands trembled—not from the cold, but from the terror of losing the only woman he had ever truly wanted.Behind the double doors, doctors worked frantically on Rach. Noah stood like a sentinel, deaf to the world around him, until the heavy sound of an ambulance siren wailed outside, followed by the frantic shouting of paramedics."Female, mid-twenties, blunt force trauma, massive blood loss! She’s fading fast!"Noah didn't even turn his head as a gurney rushed past him. He didn't notice the pale, bloodied hand hanging limply off the side of the bed. He didn't see the tattered remains of the dress he had seen just hours ago in his office.It was only when his driver, who had followed the ambulance, stumbled into the hallway that the silence broke."Sir..." the driver gasped, his face ashen. "They... they

    Selin prepared Noah’s favorite meal, carefully packing it into containers and ensuring every detail was perfect. She drove to his office, her heart light with the hope of finally sharing the news of her pregnancy. But as she reached his door, she heard voices drifting from inside—Noah and Rach."Noah, when are you finally going to divorce her?" Rach asked."I’m just waiting for the perfect time," Noah sighed. "I don’t want to upset my grandmother.""Are you sure you haven't touched her? What if she gets pregnant?" Noah chuckled, a sound devoid of warmth. "I haven't touched her in five years. How could she be pregnant? She’s just a boring housewife. No other man would waste their time on her. And even if she did manage to get pregnant, I’d force her to abort it. That woman doesn't deserve to be the mother of my children."Outside the door, Selin’s world fractured. Her fingers curled into the fabric of her dress, her knuckles turning white. Rage, hot and blinding, surged through her
