Nathan followed the doctor down the quiet hospital corridor, his footsteps heavy, each one echoing loudly in his ears like a countdown he couldn't stop.

The walls were sterile white, lined with motivational posters that felt hollow and meaningless.

The fluorescent lights overhead buzzed faintly, casting everything in a cold, clinical glow. When the doctor finally stopped before a room and pushed the door open, Nathan didn't wait for an invitation.

He rushed in as though something inside was

    The car moved smoothly along the dimly lit road, the hum of the engine the only sound filling the heavy silence inside the SUV. Streetlights flashed past the tinted windows in slow, measured intervals, casting fleeting shadows across Nathan's face. He sat rigidly at the back, his posture stiff and controlled, one arm resting against the door, the other clenched loosely on his thigh.His jaw was tight, his gaze distant and unfocused, as if his thoughts were miles away from the present moment.Marcel glanced at him through the rearview mirror more than once, hesitant and uncertain. Finally, he reached to the side and picked up a slim phone tablet with careful movements."Mr. Mills," Marcel said carefully, his voice low and respectful as he turned slightly in his seat to face his boss directly. "Here's everything we dug up on Ms. Charlotte's past. Hospital records, surveillance videos, internal reports, witness statements. She's… she's been through a lot, sir."Nathan didn't answer imm

    "Charlie," Nathan said again, his voice breaking this time, stripped completely of the anger and arrogance that once defined him so thoroughly and completely. His eyes grew wet with unshed tears that threatened to spill over. "I can't live without you. You're the only one I love. The only one I've ever truly loved in my entire life."He took a step closer and lifted his hand slowly, carefully, aiming for her shoulder, desperate for any form of contact, as if touching her would anchor her and stop her from slipping away again like sand through his fingers. But Charlotte noticed the movement instantly, her senses sharper than ever. She shifted back quickly, her heels scraping lightly against the concrete floor of the balcony, deliberately creating distance between them.Her lips curved into a bitter smile, one that held no warmth at all, no forgiveness."Nathan," she said slowly, her voice calm but cutting, each word deliberate and measured with precision. "You say you love me, but y

    "Who the hell are you?" Charlotte asked, her voice unsteady and slurred, the alcohol still clouding her senses heavily as the room spun slightly around her. Her brows knitted together in confusion and irritation as she tried to pull her hand free from his grasp. Nathan's grip was firm, almost desperate, his fingers wrapped tightly around her wrist as though letting go would make her vanish again forever."Let go of me!" she snapped, her body trembling as she tried to wrench herself away forcefully."Charlie, I messed up, okay?" Nathan said quickly, lowering his voice, forcing calm where panic threatened to break through completely. His eyes searched her face with urgency and desperation. "I know I did. I was blind. I was stupid. I was everything you think I was."Charlotte stopped struggling for a moment, lifting her gaze to him, trying hard to focus through the haze. His face felt oddly familiar, painfully familiar, yet distant at the same time. She stared at him like one would st

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 45: Moonlight Collision

    The urgent call from Marcel turned out to be strictly work-related, though it came at the worst possible time imaginable. A major client from New York—one Nathan had spent years carefully cultivating, had suddenly requested a face-to-face meeting, insisting emphatically that it had to be Nathan himself. Marcel had explained everything carefully over the phone, his tone respectful but strained, aware of how delicate the situation was with Nathan's current emotional state."Sir, this client doesn't take postponements lightly," Marcel had said, pacing anxiously in his office. "If we delay too long, they might pull out completely. We could lose the entire account."Nathan had stood by the hotel window, staring down at the glowing city below, his reflection faintly visible in the glass. His mind was elsewhere: on Charlotte, on Caleb, on everything slipping through his fingers like sand."Reschedule it," Nathan said flatly, his voice devoid of emotion."Sir—""I said reschedule it," Nath

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 44: Commotion at the Hotel

    Nathan walked back outside like a man possessed, his jaw clenched so tight it ached painfully. The night air felt heavy against his skin, doing nothing to cool the rage boiling inside him like molten lava. He barely registered his surroundings as he pushed through the gate with forceful movements.Marcel was just stepping forward when he saw him approaching. "Sir," Marcel said quickly, his voice edged with concern and worry. "Are you all right?"Nathan stopped abruptly, turning just enough for Marcel to see his face; dark, furious, unrecognizable, transformed by anger. He didn't answer. Instead, he reached out, snatched the car keys straight from Marcel's hand without asking, and marched toward the vehicle with determined strides."Sir—!" Marcel called, startled and confused.Nathan opened the car door, got in, and slammed it shut with brutal force. The engine roared to life. Before Marcel could process what was happening, the car shot forward dangerously."Sir Mills! Sir Mills!" M

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 43: Losing Her

    A sharp knock echoed through the apartment, cutting through the fragile calm that had settled in the room like a knife through silk. Charlotte stiffened instantly, her entire body going rigid. Her hands paused mid-movement as she packed the ointment back into the first-aid box with careful precision. Something about that knock felt wrong: too firm, too impatient, too aggressive."I'll get it," she said quietly, already rising to her feet with a sense of foreboding.Caleb nodded, watching her with a faint frown creasing his features. He had barely adjusted himself on the bed when Charlotte reached the door. The moment she pulled it open, her expression hardened dramatically.Nathan stood there in the doorway.His presence filled the entrance—uninvited, unwelcome, and heavy with unresolved anger and barely contained emotion. His suit jacket was gone, his shirt slightly rumpled and disheveled, his jaw tight with tension. His eyes swept past Charlotte immediately, searching the apartm
