No Second Chances, Ex-husband CHAPTER 0136
CASSANDRA'S POV I got down from my Uber, the sound of the car door clicking shut echoing faintly behind me. I paid the driver through the app, slipping my phone back into my purse as the vehicle pulled away into traffic. A gust of warm evening air brushed against my face, carrying the faint scent of roasted coffee beans from the café ahead.For a moment, I just stood there on the sidewalk, staring at the building in front of me. The café looked far too rich for my standards — sleek glass walls, polished wooden panels, and golden lettering that screamed luxury. Even the people stepping in and out looked like they belonged to a different world — suits, pearls, perfume worth more than my entire paycheck.On my own, I could never afford to come here. I would’ve felt completely out of place if I were just wandering in by myself. But I wasn’t coming here alone today. Sofia had invited me yesterday, and against my usual judgment, I’d agreed.Ever since we started talking after the company a

ROMAN'S POV“Why don’t we head back to the living room,” Lauren said finally, breaking the silence that had been hanging between us Her voice pulled me out of my thoughts, grounding me for a moment. I gave a small nod and motioned for her to go ahead, but Aria was the first to move, her feet pattering lightly against the floor as she walked ahead of us. Lauren followed right behind her, and I took up the rear, my gaze flicking between them. Watching them walk together like that, it stirred something inside me that I couldn’t quite put into words.When we entered the living room, the sound of loud laughter immediately filled the space. Tessa’s voice carried through the air, light and carefree, as though she didn’t realize or care that half the house could hear her. She was on a call, talking animatedly and laughing like she was in a private comedy show. Then, right on cue, my phone buzzed again in my pocket.I let out a quiet sigh. It was like the universe had decided to test how muc

ROMAN'S POV“Okay, so what do you want to talk about?” Lauren asked, her tone light but her expression laced with curiosity. Her arms were loosely crossed in front of her chest, head tilted slightly as she studied me. There was something about the way her eyes narrowed not suspiciously, but with a sharp, analytical lookI inhaled deeply, feeling the weight of what I was about to say sit heavily on my chest. “I know that…” I began, but the words died in my throat as my pocket started vibrating.Seriously?I frowned slightly, already annoyed before I even looked at the caller ID. Fishing my phone out, I saw the name flashing across the screen: Mom.Of course.Ever since she decided to come stay at my house a few days after the company anniversary, my phone hadn’t known peace. Three hours. That’s probably the longest it stayed silent in a single day.Now, don’t get me wrong, I loved my mom, and having her around again after so long had brought a strange comfort I didn’t know I’d missed.

ROMAN'S POVI don’t usually get important emails on that particular account. To be honest, I hadn’t even logged into it in over a year. I used it back when I had to sign up for online newsletters and subscriptions that I never cared to open. My business email was the one that got all the serious messages — the contracts, client deals, and company alerts.So who could possibly be sending something to this old address now?I looked deeper and half-distracted as everyone else continued eating. The sound of spoons gently clinking against plates filled the air. But my focus had already shifted somewhere else entirely.When I tapped the email icon, my attention sharpened the moment I saw the sender: Medigen Hospital.That name… it made me pause. I hadn’t been there in over two years, not since I did a general check-up and stored my DNA sample for a long-term health profile. It was part of a business insurance package, nothing more.So why were they contacting me now?Curiosity took over, a

ROMAN'S POV The sound of another set of footsteps approaching snapped me out of my thoughts about Aria. My mind had drifted somewhere else — too deep, too dangerous. For a second, I thought it was Lauren returning with the juice she promised me, but when I looked up, it wasn’t her. It was her friend, Tessa. “Lauren told me you stopped by, so I decided to come say hello,” she said with an easy smile, stretching her hand toward me. I stood up politely, meeting her halfway with a handshake. Her grip was firm, confident the kind of handshake you’d expect from someone who didn’t need to pretend to be nice but chose to anyway. “I don’t think we properly introduced ourselves the last time I was here,” I said, shaking her hand. “I’m sure you already know who I am, but I’d like to know your name, Lauren’s non-biological sister.” The corner of her lips curled into a smirk, clearly amused by my tone. “You can call me Tessa,” she replied. Before I could respond, movement caught my attention

ROMAN'S POV“Another day of coming to my place without letting me know,” Lauren said, leaning casually against her front door. Her arms crossed.I hesitated for a fraction of a second, weighing how to respond. I couldn’t let her think I was careless or inconsiderate, but at the same time, I needed to maintain my own calm presence. “Well, technically I told you I was going to come over so we could finish the conversation we were having at my office,” I said, hoping that could counteract the accusation and remind her that this visit was purposeful.Lauren tilted her head slightly, the expression on her face unmistakably skeptical. “That was two days ago,” she said, her voice carrying a slight tinge of frustration. “And you said you were going to come that evening.” She added. And it almost sounded like she was more annoyed that I didn’t show up that evening than the fact that I showed up here unannounced I let out a small sigh knowing she had cornered me, I hoped she wouldn’t remember
