CAMELLIA

She left.

I felt it the moment I walked through the front door.

The house felt different.

Lighter.

For the first time since returning and discovering that Desmond had actually married her, I finally felt a kind of peace that had been missing.

Yes, he claimed he only married her out of spite. He said it was revenge. Said he wanted to punish her for what she supposedly did to me.

But deep down, there was always that tiny voice in my head whispering something else entirely.

What if he mar

    EUDORAI double blinked at her.“I beg your pardon?”Because surely I had heard wrong.That was not exactly the kind of information someone forgets to mention.The disbelief must have been obvious in both my expression and my tone because Aria visibly winced.“I know,” she said quickly. “I know how bad this sounds. And as someone paying half the rent, you absolutely deserved to know before now.”“Yes,” I agreed slowly, “I definitely did.”She grimaced harder.“I’m really sorry,” she continued. “She showed up unexpectedly, and I couldn’t exactly throw her out. Everything happened so suddenly.”I continued staring at her silently, waiting for the full explanation.Aria sighed softly before speaking again. “She lost her boyfriend recently, and she can’t keep staying in their house anymore, so she came to me.”The irritation inside me eased slightly at that.Still, I said nothing.Maybe because I was too exhausted to properly react.Or maybe because I was trying very hard not to immediate

    EUDORA When I arrived in New Zealand, my new flatmate, who also happened to be an old university mate of mine, came to pick me up from the airport.She had offered a few days earlier during one of our calls, and honestly, I saw no reason to refuse. After spending long hours on a flight, the last thing I wanted was to struggle with directions, luggage, and transport in a country that still felt somewhat unfamiliar to me.“Eudora!”Her voice rang across the airport loudly enough to draw the attention of several people walking past. A few travelers turned to look at us while others slowed down out of curiosity. Completely unbothered by the attention she was attracting, Aria waved both hands dramatically before hurrying toward me with a wide grin on her face.“I thought I had missed your landing time,” she said breathlessly the moment she reached me.I stared at her for a second, unsure of how exactly I was supposed to respond to that level of excitement. In university, Aria had always b

He said it was revenge. Said he wanted to punish her for what she supposedly did to me.But deep down, there was always that tiny voice in my head whispering something else entirely.What if he married her simply because he wanted to?What if revenge was just an excuse?Because honestly, when I really thought about it, there were countless ways Desmond could have ruined her life if he truly wanted revenge.He could have destroyed her reputation.Taken away her career opportunities.Dragged her through lawsuits.Humiliated her publicly.Desmond had power. Wealth. Influence.He had endless options.But out of every possible punishment, he chose marriage.Marriage.No matter how many times h

    EUDORATWO WEEKS LATERMy bags were already packed and in the trunk. The divorce papers had been signed two days ago and my flight ticket booked before then.The only reason I was still in this house was because Desmond insisted I meet with his lawyer before leaving. So here I was, seated in the office of the man who no longer wanted me, waiting like my time did not matter.I lifted my wrist and checked the time again, irritation crawling through me. “How much longer is this supposed to take?” I muttered under my breath. His lawyer was taking forever to arrive.A few seconds later, the front door swung open.The lawyer hurried in with an apologetic expression on his face, clutching his briefcase tightly. “I sincerely apologize for being late, Mr. Nelson,” he said quickly as he walked toward the chair directly opposite Desmond. “The traffic today was absolutely terrible.”Of course, I apparently did not deserve an apology too.“I do not want to miss my flight,” I said flatly.Moving t

    EUDORAThe woman sitting beside me let out a low, amused chuckle, clearly entertained by the expression on my face. “Well,” she said slowly, tilting her head as she studied me, “judging from that reaction, I’m going to assume none of it is actually true.”“Of course it isn’t true,” I snapped almost immediately. “Seriously, who sits down and comes up with these insane stories?”Resting both hands protectively over her stomach, she gently caressed it while leaning back against her seat. “According to the report, your husband is the one who started the narrative.”My jaw tightened instantly.That lying bastard.Of course he would throw me under the bus to protect himself. He needed someone to blame, someone the public could point fingers at, and apparently that someone was me. “It’s pretty obvious your marriage is falling apart,” she continued after a brief pause, turning her body slightly so she could look directly at me. Her tone wasn’t mocking this time, if anything, it sounded almos

    EUDORALike I usually do after a long day, I stopped by the mall to pick up a few art pens. It was supposed to be a quick errand, nothing dramatic, nothing out of the ordinary. Just in and out.But the moment I stepped out of the mall, something felt… off.A group of men stood clustered around my car. Cameras hung from their necks, some already raised, others casually resting in their hands as if they are waiting for something or someone.For a second, I simply stood there, frowning slightly as I took in the scene.This doesn’t make sense.Desmond was the one used to this kind of attention. He is the public figure, the one the press followed around, not me. Never me.So why were they here?Why are they standing around my car?A faint sense of unease crept into my chest as I began walking toward them, slower this time, more cautious.Maybe I should have asked Desmond for security.Though, knowing my dear sister, she would probably have something to say about that too.I was only a few
