Regret After Divorce: Falling In Love All Over Again Chapter 78
Chapter 78AMBERLYNI made it exactly three blocks from Thorne Industries before the tears I'd been holding back finally broke free. I pulled over into a grocery store parking lot, gripping the steering wheel hard enough that my knuckles went white, and let myself fall apart for exactly two minutes.Two minutes to cry over something that had never been mine to lose. Two minutes to mourn a possibility that had only ever existed in my imagination. Two minutes to feel sorry for myself before I had to pull it together and go home to my son, who needed a mother who was strong and stable, not one who was crying over her boss's love life.When the two minutes were up, I wiped my face with the tissues I kept in the center console, fixed my smudged mascara as best I could, and drove the rest of the way to Wednesday's apartment with my emotions firmly locked down.The apartment felt too quiet when I walked in. Too empty. I dropped my bag by the door and kicked off my heels, padding barefoot int

Chapter 77AMBERLYN Klaus Thorne had a girlfriend. Or something close to it. A beautiful, sophisticated investor who he took to romantic lunches and didn't come back from until well after business hours.And I'd had no idea.The hurt blooming in my chest was irrational and inappropriate and completely unprofessional. I had no claim on Klaus. We'd established boundaries specifically to avoid this kind of emotional complication. What he did with his personal life was none of my business.But it hurt anyway.Because for the past week, I'd felt something building between us. Not anything we'd acted on, not anything we'd even acknowledged, but something present nonetheless. A connection, an awareness, a possibility that maybe—someday, when the professional complications were resolved—we could explore what had been left unfinished six years ago.Apparently, I'd been deluding myself.Klaus had moved on. Had found someone sophisticated and beautiful and appropriate for his social status. Som

Chapter 76AMBERLYN I blinked, surprised. Klaus had pulled me into every meeting this week, had specifically said he wanted me present for high-level discussions. Why would this one be different?"Are you sure?" I asked. "If she's an investor discussing Westfield, I should probably be there to take notes—""Celine wouldn't appreciate an outsider joining us," Klaus interrupted, his voice firm. "She's... particular about privacy. It's better if I handle this alone."Outsider. The word stung more than it should have, especially given the context. I was his assistant. Being in meetings was literally my job. But apparently not this meeting. Not with Celine Ashford, whoever she was."Of course," I said, keeping my voice carefully neutral even as something uncomfortable twisted in my chest. "Should I reschedule your two o'clock to accommodate the extended lunch?""Yes. Push everything back an hour. And if anything urgent comes up, text me, but otherwise I'd prefer not to be interrupted."

Chapter 75AMBERLYN The week had settled into a rhythm that felt almost normal, if I ignored the underlying current of tension that hummed between Klaus and me every time we were in the same room. We'd both committed—silently, unanimously—to maintaining strict professional boundaries. No more elevator confessions. No more lingering looks. No more moments that felt too charged, too dangerous, too much like the beginning of something we couldn't afford to start.It was working. Mostly.I arrived at eight every morning with Klaus's coffee—black, two sugars—and my own vanilla latte that was probably more sugar than coffee. We reviewed his schedule, discussed priorities, coordinated meetings. I sat in on high-level discussions, took meticulous notes, managed the constant chaos of his calendar with increasing efficiency.By Wednesday, I'd reorganized his entire filing system. By Thursday, I'd streamlined his email management protocol. By Friday, three different executives had complimented

Chapter 74THOMAS"Why not?""Because—" I broke off, struggling to articulate something I barely understood myself. "Because it's not about them. It's about me. About not being the kind of man who gets discarded like garbage, who gets replaced with someone better.""You're not being replaced, Thomas. You're being left behind. There's a difference." Veronica set down her wine glass. "And if you keep pursuing this, if you keep trying to control people who have every right to move on from you, you're going to lose more than just Ambelyn and Iniko.""What's that supposed to mean?""It means I'm tired." She said it quietly, but the words hit like a physical blow. "I'm tired of being the other woman. I'm tired of waiting for you to be emotionally available when you're so obsessed with your ex-wife that you can barely see me. I'm tired of raising Lucas while you obsess over a child that might not even be yours.""Veronica—""No. Let me finish." She held up a hand. "I've been patient. I've b

Chapter 73THOMASAmbelyn thought she could just walk away from me, take everything, and start fresh with Thorne's backing? She was delusional. I was Thomas Blackwood. My family owned half this city's commercial real estate. I had connections, resources, power that she couldn't even comprehend.And I wasn't going to let some upstart tech CEO and my ungrateful ex-wife make a fool of me without consequences.I pulled out my phone, ignoring the blood smearing across the screen from my injured hand. Richard Donovan's number was still in my recent calls. I hit dial, not caring that it was after six and he was probably having dinner with his family.He answered on the third ring. "Thomas. I was going to call you tomorrow—""I need you to do something for me," I interrupted. "I need you to find out everything about Klaus Thorne's custody arrangement with his daughter. Every detail. Who has rights, who makes decisions, whether there are any vulnerabilities we can exploit."Silence on the othe
