After learning the whole truth, she was consumed by regret and guilt. She searched desperately for me, wanting to apologize to me in person and make amends for every cruel and foolish thing she'd done.But no matter how many ways she tried to contact me, she couldn't find a single trace of where I'd gone.What she didn't know was that I'd already returned to Alderwyn and begun an entirely new life.My parents had placed the family's entire business empire in his hands. Within a few short months, he'd restructured its operations, taken firm control, and led the vast enterprise to new heights.One day, a major financial story broke on television.The long-absent heir to one of Alderwyn's most powerful families had officially returned to take control of the family empire.When the camera focused on me, I stood tall in a custom-tailored suit, my expression cool and composed.Surrounded by countless reporters and cameras, I remained calm and confident, every inch the capable new head

After that day, Stella completely fell apart. She couldn't accept that I'd left behind a divorce agreement and vanished from her life.She spent every day depressed and withdrawn, with no interest in dealing with anything at the studio.Her solo exhibition was fast approaching, and urgent work continued to pile up, but she couldn't bring herself to handle any of it.Landon took the opportunity to assume responsibility for everything, gradually taking complete control of the studio's daily operations and external affairs.Although he knew how to handle exhibition logistics and routine errands, he had no understanding of the financial, legal, or regulatory requirements involved in properly operating a studio in Varenne. Within just a few days, unresolved problems began piling up behind the scenes, throwing the entire studio into chaos.Landon couldn't understand the tax documents at all, so he simply skipped the quarterly filing deadline, leaving the studio's business taxes overdu

My leaving hit Stella hard.She lost all motivation. She even stopped going to the studio she'd once valued cared above so everything else, spending her days sitting alone in the empty apartment, staring blankly into space.Traces of me still throughout the apartment, but I was was nowhere to be found.Countless memories of our ordinary life together flooded her mind. Throughout all those years, I'd quietly taken care of her and supported her art career without reservation.Stella slowly raised her head and looked at a photograph of us hanging on the wall.She remembered how much I'd always wanted children.When we were together, I'd often talk tenderly about our future. I dreamed of having a child of our own and building a happy family together.Back then, Stella had always brushed me off. Each time I mentioned it, she told me we would start trying for a baby once her career became stable.But year after year, she remained busy painting, entering competitions, and chasing succ

Stella, Landon, and the others stood outside, quietly waiting for the Northern Lights to appear.Not far away, a couple stood wrapped tightly in each other's arms, looking blissfully happy.The warm, intimate sight brought Stella back to the way we used to be. For seven years, I'd always put up been tolerant of her moods and accommodated every one of her preferences.Whenever she stayed up late painting, I would quietly stayed up with her. When she felt discouraged, I would patiently kept her company and talked her through it.I'd given her all my tenderness and devotion, never once treating her feelings as an afterthought.As those memories came flooding back, a faint smile unconsciously touched her lips.Just then, the man nearby gazed earnestly at the woman beside him and said gently, "It's so beautiful here. From now on, let's come back every year to celebrate our wedding anniversary."His words seemed to suddenly remind Stella of something. Her heart lurched. She hurriedl

"I..."Before I could finish, Stella cut me off impatiently, "Where are you going? What are you throwing a tantrum about this time?”Hearing the accusation roll so naturally off her tongue extinguished the last trace of affection I still had for her. I didn't want to say another word to her, so I hung up.The moment my screen went dark, Stella called again, her name flashing repeatedly across it.I simply turned off my phone. From now on, nothing she did had anything to do with me.When Stella heard the automated message saying Colin's phone had been turned off, her expression darkened. She rose to her feet and headed for the door.Landon immediately reached out and caught her arm, putting on a concerned expression. "Stella, what's wrong? Where are you going?"Stella irritably shook off his hand, unease creeping into her voice. "I heard an airport boarding announcement in the background just now. I don't know where Colin's suddenly going, and I have a bad feeling about it. I

Stella's protective gesture made my breath catch. I couldn't even get a word out to defend myself.Whispers immediately broke out around us."Colin Stafford? That's Stella's husband?""No way. Why would Stella marry a bartender? She's one of Varenne's most celebrated young artists.”"Did he seriously accuse Landon of being the other man? We all know there's nothing going on between them. How could he slander Landon and suspect his own wife?""Stella really got stuck with a terrible husband. He can't help her career at all, and on top of that, he's constantly suspicious and holding her back...""He's way too controlling. I feel suffocated just thinking about what Stella has to endure."I stood there in humiliation, my fists slowly clenching at my sides. "Stella, listen to me—""Apologize." Stella cut me off with that single cold word.I stared at her in disbelief. "Stella, you don't even know what happened, and you're already demanding that I apologize to him?”She answered w
