My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 83: The Close-Out
Ada brought it at ten on a Friday morning.She set it on the desk without comment and left. Sera was mid-sentence in a review document. She finished the sentence, put the pen down, and picked up the envelope.Ashford Global letterhead. Her name and full title were typed correctly. No urgency marking. Single page weight.She opened it.Standard professional language, clean and complete. Formal acknowledgement of the concluded Aldric matter. Appreciation for the collaboration between both families' legal and security teams. Note of the satisfactory resolution of all outstanding exposure. Two paragraphs, correct in every detail, signed by Garrett Finch, General Counsel, Ashford Global.She read it through once.She was about to set it down when she saw the bottom of the page.Below Garrett's signature block, in handwriting that was not Garrett's, a single letter.Nothing else. There is no sentence attached to it. There was no explanation of what it meant or what she was supposed to do wi
My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 82: Aldric Ended
The filing went in on a Thursday.Garrett and the Montague legal team had coordinated the submission over two weeks, building the evidence package from Lars's documentation and the Montague intelligence files and the shell company exposure that had been accumulating since the first forty-seven page file arrived on Roman's desk. Comprehensive. Exact. Quiet. No press statement. No advance notice. Both families preferred it that way and had said so through separate channels without needing to discuss it directly.The three remaining shell companies were exposed and frozen by the end of business Thursday. The regulatory investigation opened Friday morning on three separate counts, arising apparently independently from different directions because that was how the documentation had been structured.Aldric's operational network had no remaining functional components.Roman was at his desk when Lars brought the confirmation. He was working, doing what he now did in the hours after the signif
My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 81: He Came
She watched from the upstairs window.His car had stopped at the gate at nine forty-three. She had been in the sitting room when she heard it on the drive, the specific sound of a car that had come from the city rather than from the local road, and she moved to the window without deciding to.The headlights through the iron. The car parked just beyond the gate, the engine still running. She could not see his face from this distance. Only the car. Only the fact of it there stopped, with the engine on and the lights on and nothing happening.She stood at the window.She did not go down.She watched.The car did not move for twenty minutes. She checked the time when it arrived, and she checked it when it left. Twenty minutes was the difference. No call came to the intercom. The gate received nothing. No one appeared at the entrance. Nothing happened at the gate except that his car was on the other side of it and she was on this side, at the window, with the pale yellow lamp on behind her
My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 80: Aldric's Final Attempt
The message arrived at the Montague estate on a Tuesday morning.Not a letter through legal channels. Not a financial communication routed through the usual intermediaries. Delivered directly to the estate gate by a courier who gave a false name to the security log and was gone before anyone thought to look twice. Plain envelope. No return address. Inside: a single typed sheet. No signature.It was not violent. It was designed to feel like a door opening just enough to show you what was behind it. Three weeks of documented movements. Specific locations and specific times, the kind of detail that required sustained observation to produce. The message at the bottom was three sentences. It said, without saying it plainly, that Aldric knew where she was and could continue to know and that further interference in his affairs would result in communications of a more direct nature.Dante read it first. He brought it to Sera's study and put it on her desk, and stood back.She read it once.Sh
My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 79: Three Times
The drive home was twenty minutes.Roman sat in the back seat and watched the city pass and said nothing and did not pick up his phone. The driver did not speak. The city outside the glass was doing its late-evening thing. He sat with what he was carrying, which was three words said to him at a covered entrance by a woman who had not been required to say them.*I read it three times.*He turned it over once on the drive and then put it down. Not because it didn't matter. Because it mattered enough that he was not going to spend the first twenty minutes of it running analysis on it before he had simply let it exist.The penthouse was quiet when he arrived. He had stopped noticing the quiet as an absence. He had lived long enough in the correct version of it, the version that was simply his own space rather than a space with the wrong things in it, that it had become something he could inhabit without the specific weight it had once carried.He went to the study.He did not pour a drink
My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 78: The Benefit
Roman arrived at the Harrington Foundation benefit at seven thirty and did not look for her. He found Felix near the bar, took a drink, and stayed there for the first twenty minutes. The conversation was easy and unhurried, the kind Felix was good at producing, and Roman was actually in it. Listening to what Felix was saying. Responding to it. Letting it be a conversation rather than something to move through on the way to something else. His lawyers found him at eight. He talked with Garrett about the Pryce update and with two board members about a portfolio matter that didn't require resolution tonight but was worth the informal exchange. He moved through the professional conversations with the presence that Priya had noticed and named and that he was still learning to trust as real rather than temporary. He did not seek Sera out. He knew she was there. He had registered her location from the moment he came through the door, the way you registered certain things without making a
My Ex Husband's Biggest Regret Chapter 20: Five Words
Roman told himself he was going to clear the air.That was the exact phrase he used in his own head as he watched Sera excuse herself from the chief of surgery and move toward the far end of the room. Clear the air. Practical. Reasonable. They were going to be in the same professional circles and i

Isabella went to bed at eleven thirty.Roman said he would follow soon. He went to his study instead, removed his jacket, and sat in the chair he had been sitting in most nights since the divorce when there was something he could not set down. He left most of the lights off. Just the desk lamp, its

Garrett arrived at nine with a folder he had not sent ahead.That was the first thing Roman noticed. Garrett sent documents in advance. Eleven years of working together, and the rule had never changed: a client should never be surprised in a meeting. The fact that he was carrying something Roman ha

Sera had been reading for twenty minutes when her phone lit up.Unknown number. She looked at it for one second. Then she set it face-up on the cushion beside her and went back to her page.She knew.She couldn't have explained how. The number was unsaved, clean, nothing her phone recognized. But s
