I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 135 — The Decision to Be Honest
In the days after visiting their old house, Elara felt increasingly restless. She slowly began to realize that something was still bothering her, something she couldn’t fully understand or resolve by thinking about it alone.She had examined every version of Kael she had known. She had weighed the genuine changes she had seen in him against the many ways he had failed her in the past. She had also honestly faced her doubts about whether she could ever trust him enough to open her heart to him again without being afraid that he would hurt her.But one evening, as she sat alone in her apartment, she finally realized that she had been approaching this entire question incompletely.During their five years of marriage, she had spent too much time holding back her true feelings. She had softened her words to avoid upsetting Kael, kept her frustrations to herself, and ignored her own hurt rather than risk the difficult conversations that honesty might require. In the end, she had walked away
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 134 — Goodbye to the House
Camille mentioned briefly to Elara that the house was finally being sold. Kael had apparently decided months ago that keeping a property filled with so many painful memories no longer made sense.To her surprise, she asked Camille for the real estate agent's contact details. She didn’t fully understand why she wanted to return to the house until she had already sent an email requesting one final visit before the property officially changed owners.The agent only knew that Elara had some previous connection to the house, so she agreed without hesitation. She arranged a quiet afternoon during the week when no other viewings were planned, giving Elara the privacy she hadn’t asked for directly but needed.When Elara got there, she stood outside the house for a long moment before entering, studying its familiar appearance. She looked at the neatly maintained garden. Somehow, the entire house seemed smaller than she remembered. She knew this was probably because she had changed and grown as
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 133 — Every Version of Him
Elara spent a quiet Saturday at home, setting aside the day to think instead of work. She knew she needed to look honestly at the full history of her relationship with Kael and consider how he had changed over the years before she could trust whatever decision she eventually made.She started at the beginning, remembering the young man she had met at their first formal family dinner, years before their wedding. He had been polite and composed, but he had also kept his distance. At that time, she had mistaken his behavior for nervousness about their arranged introduction.Then she thought about him as her arranged husband. She remembered their conversation in the garden before the wedding, when he had carefully explained that he could offer her respect but not love. She remembered how coldly he had stated those terms, as though he were kindly preparing her for what she could and could not expect from their marriage.Back then, she had been young and hopeful. Despite his honesty, she ha
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 132 — No More Pressure
Elara drove home from the café in an unusual silence, slowly absorbing what Marcus had said. His words affected her more deeply than she had expected.When she got to her apartment, she sat down on the couch. For the first time in longer than she could remember, she realized that no one was actually waiting on her for an answer.Marcus had let her go completely without resentment or bitterness, asking only that she take the time to understand her own feelings honestly. Kael had offered her the same freedom weeks earlier. His thoughtful note had made it clear that she didn’t owe him a deadline, an explanation, or a decision before she was truly ready.As she sat there, she tried to get used to this unfamiliar sense of freedom. She realized that for the past several months, perhaps even longer, she had been carrying a kind of pressure she had never fully acknowledged, even to herself. She had felt that sooner or later, she owed someone a decision, and that remaining uncertain was someho
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 131 — The Full Quote
They sat in the quiet café a while longer. The difficult words from earlier settled between them. Elara studied Marcus with a complicated mix of grief and real respect. With each moment, she understood more fully what he had just offered her."I need you to understand something else," Marcus said, breaking the silence gently. "This isn't me giving up on something I actually want. I want to be clear about that difference.""I'm listening," Elara said.“I could leave the proposal open,” he continued. “I could keep waiting patiently while you work through everything at your own pace, hoping that, eventually, the comfort and familiarity of our relationship would help you choose me over whatever doubts you still have about Kael. I did consider doing that, honestly.”"Why didn't you?"Marcus considered her question seriously before answering. "Because I'd rather lose you honestly than have you choose me just because I'm the easier option," he said finally. "If you eventually chose me only b
I Own Twenty Percent of My Ex Husband’s Company Chapter 130 — Marcus Lets Go
Marcus sat near the back of the ballroom, watching Kael publicly acknowledge Elara’s contribution. After weeks of observing them, he understood exactly what he was witnessing.He'd seen the collaboration between Elara and Kael develop steadily throughout the crisis, and he had also noticed the growing ease and respect between them. But this public moment was different from anything Marcus had seen before. Kael had openly acknowledged Elara’s contributions in front of hundreds of people, showing genuine vulnerability without expecting anything in return or seeking recognition for himself.He watched Elara struggle to control her emotions as she listened to Kael’s words. Sitting among the crowd, he realized that something significant had changed between them. Whatever problems remained unresolved, Kael’s honest public acknowledgment had brought them closer in a way that private gestures alone might never have achieved.He didn’t feel bitter as he watched them. Instead, he felt a quiet b
