Laura’s POV

I almost forgot to call Adrian after getting to the apartment.

The thought came to me as soon as I finished with what I was doing on the laptop.

“I’m here at the apartment,” I said when he picked it up.

“I’m glad,” he replied immediately, relief clear in his tone. “How is it?”

I turned slowly, taking in the wide windows, the pale walls, the way the evening light spilled across the floor. “It’s… beautiful. It’s more than I imagined.”

He chuckled. “That’s good to hea

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 106

    Chapter 106 – Micheal’s POVI slammed the door behind me, my hands trembling with a mix of fury and disbelief. The day had already been hellish, but nothing, not even the memory of Laura’s cold gaze, or the sting of her slap could have prepared me for what awaited me on my desk.A plain envelope lay there, unassuming, almost innocuous. My name scribbled on it in neat handwriting. I felt a flicker of irritation. “Who even sends me anything anymore?” I muttered under my breath, my voice barely masking the storm rising inside me. I ripped it open, expecting some routine correspondence, or about the investors I sought out.The moment my eyes landed on the documents, it was the divorce paper sent to me from kayla. I wondered to myself. "Why would she draft another divorce letter when she can just sign mine." I picked the letter to read and blood drained from my face instantly. The terms that made my heart hammer like a war drum, each clause a crushing weight pressing down on my chest.

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 105

    Chapter 105 – Kayla’s POVI was halfway through tying Lily’s shoelaces when my phone rang.“Mommy, are we still getting ice cream after groceries?” Lily asked, swinging her small legs impatiently as she sat on the couch.“Yes, if you behave well,” I replied absently, my attention already drifting toward my phone vibrating on the table.I stood up and walked over to check the screen. The number wasn’t saved, but the area code was familiar.It was a law firm.I frowned.Why would a firm be calling me?I hadn’t filed anything new. The divorce process was ongoing, yes, but there was no fresh documentation that required my appearance today.I picked up the call.“Mrs. Kayla?” a professional female voice asked.“Yes.”“You’re invited to our firm this afternoon. It concerns your ongoing marital case. We would appreciate your presence within the next hour.”I blinked. “Invited? By who?”“You’ll understand when you arrive,” the voice replied politely before ending the call.I stared at the scr

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 104

    Chapter 114 – Laura’s POVI was still shaking when the door finally closed behind Micheal.For a few seconds, I just stood there, staring at the scattered papers on my office floor. My heart was racing so fast it hurt. I could still hear the echo of their fists hitting skin.I inhaled slowly and turned to Daniel.His lower lip was split. There was a faint bruise already forming along his jaw. He was dabbing at the blood with a handkerchief, his expression calm but tight around the edges.“I’m so sorry,” I said immediately. My voice sounded strained even to me. “I am really, really sorry.”Daniel gave a small nod, but he didn’t smile. “It’s fine.”“It’s not fine,” I insisted. I rushed to the cabinet behind my desk and pulled out the first aid box. My hands were still trembling as I opened it. “He had no right. None at all.”I moved closer to Daniel and gently tilted his chin. “Hold still,” I muttered.I cleaned the cut carefully. He didn’t flinch, but I could feel the tension in him.

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 103

    Chapter 103 – Micheal’s POVI woke before my alarm rang.For a few seconds, I just lay there, staring at the ceiling. My chest felt tight, like I hadn’t slept at all. Laura had been on my mind the whole night. Today, I told myself, I would go to her office again. I would talk to her properly. Just a calm conversation. She owed me that much.I got dressed earlier than usual. I even changed my shirt twice because I didn’t want to look careless. I didn’t know why it mattered so much. Maybe because I didn’t want her seeing me as some unstable fool.By the time I stepped out, the sun was barely up. The drive to her office felt longer than usual. My thoughts kept running in circles.Laura is just angry. She doesn’t mean what she says.She still cares.When I arrived at her office building, I noticed something immediately. Her assistant’s desk was empty. That was strange. The assistant was always there before anyone else. I frowned but didn’t think much of it. Maybe she stepped out.I walk

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 102

    Chapter 102_Kayla’s POVThe audacity of that woman.The moment she disappeared from my room without a single explanation, without even a word of gratitude after I handed her the antidote, my entire body burned with rage. I stood there for several seconds after she vanished, staring at the empty space she had occupied, my fingers still curled from where I had held the vial.She just barged into my room bleeding, demanding help like I owed her something, glaring at me as though I was beneath her and then she left without answering a single question.“How dare she,” I muttered, pacing across the room.My chest rose and fell as anger consumed me. I had tolerated her arrogance for too long simply because our interests were aligned for now. But tonight had crossed a line. She had looked at me like I was disposable and meant nothing to her.I stopped pacing and clenched my fists tightly. “After I win this divorce case,” I swore under my breath, “I will kill her myself.”The vow felt satisfyi

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 101

    Chapter 101_Masked Woman’s POVBy the time I reached home, the pain had become unbearable.I staggered through the entrance, barely managing to shut the door behind me before my knees nearly gave out. Blood continued to seep through my clothes, dripping onto the floor in dark stains. The wound in my stomach burned like fire, far worse than any ordinary injury should have.“Micheal,” I spat bitterly, clutching my side. “You arrogant fool.”He had bitten deeper than I anticipated. That was my first mistake, underestimating him. I had expected strength, yes, but not that level of calculated retaliation. He had not bitten randomly. He had done it deliberately.I pressed my palm against the wound and forced my power to gather around it. Healing had never been difficult for me before. My body had always responded quickly, knitting flesh back together within minutes. But this time, no matter how much energy I summoned, the bleeding refused to stop.The blood slowed slightly, then gushed agai
