The following day, at around three in the afternoon, Thalina received a package.

Inside was a gorgeous, strapless baby pink gown.

She stared at it for a moment, a soft smile forming on her lips.

Ever since marrying Evander, she had only ever dressed like his assistant at social events—modest, understated, forgettable.

At home, it hadn’t been any different. Emogen had made sure of that, drilling it into her that no man appreciated a woman who dressed “provocatively.”

Now, standing there with th

    For a moment, the air became thick with unspoken tension. Thalina watched as droplets of wine slid down Evander’s face, his dark eyes locking onto hers.In the past, she would have never dared to do something like this.It wouldn’t have even crossed her mind. But now, with her life ticking down like a countdown, It felt like she was finally seeing him clearly for who he was. Every cruel word and every cold action, the love she had finally let go of was no longer there to soften them.“T-Thalina!”Elowin was the first to speak, her voice shattering the silence as she rushed forward, hands trembling as she tried to wipe Evander’s face.“Why would you do something like this? How could you?”Her voice carried high, drawing even more attention to the scene that was unfolding. “Huh? Mr. Hale got splashed?” Someone whispered. “Who is that woman?” Another whispered, eyes locked on Thalina unmoved form like they'd just seen a cat meow at a Lion. “How dare she?” Another whispered, disbelie

    If Evander were to recount how long he had known Thalina, he could easily say a third of his life.Yet, in all that time, he had never seen her like this. She had always dressed… simply and modest, almost subdued—like someone trying not to be seen.But tonight, the gown she wore traced her figure perfectly, accentuating her curves in a way that felt both elegant and dangerously captivating. The soft pink shade complemented her milky complexion, while the subtle reveal of skin along her neckline added just enough allure without crossing into excess.For the first time, she didn’t look like the quiet woman who stayed in the background.She looked like a woman who commanded attention and without realizing it, Evander’s gaze lingered, taking her in as something unfamiliar stirred in his chest, subtle yet undeniable.“Wow… who is she?”“Is she a celebrity?”“I’ve never seen someone so beautiful…”The murmurs spread quickly, echoed by both the crowd and the paparazzi. Cameras shifted, lense

At home, it hadn’t been any different. Emogen had made sure of that, drilling it into her that no man appreciated a woman who dressed “provocatively.”Now, standing there with the dress in her hands, Thalina realized something she had been too blind to see before.She had lost herself in that marriage completely and it was a bitter realization, knowing it came at the cost of her life ticking down.“Big bro sure has an eye for the finer things,” Ronan commented from where he sat on the bed, legs crossed, a smirk playing on his lips as he watched her.Thalina shot him a glare before turning back to the dress.“Come on,” Ronan continued. “Your chapter with Evander is alrea

    Thalina didn’t know if she had been expecting a miracle.But as she sat there for an hour in Cassiel’s office, silently praying that something—anything—would change in her results, a part of her must have hoped.Maybe it had been a mistake.Maybe the tests had been mixed up.Maybe she and Ronan would laugh about it later over drinks, calling it some ridiculous misdiagnosis.But now, as she stared at the confirmation of her impending death once again, she couldn’t help but feel foolish.Behind his desk, Cassiel let out a quiet sigh as his eyes moved over the report. He lifted his gaze to Thalina.This time, there was no hiding it. The pity in his eyes was clear and pity meant only one thing.There was no way out.Thalina swallowed hard, forcing back the sting building behind her eyes.How stupid of her to hope.“It’s bad?” Ronan asked from beside her.Cassiel pressed his lips into a thin line.“Half a year… at most.”Thalina had already heard it before, but hearing it again didn’t make

    “Huh? You two know each other?” Ronan asked, clearly surprised by the brief exchange.Thalina parted her lips to respond, but the man—Cassiel, as she now realized—spoke first.“She ran into a bit of trouble at the entrance,” he said.“And you helped me,” Thalina added.He smiled, revealing a set of perfectly aligned teeth. “It was a pleasure.”“Well, well,” Ronan chuckled. “Would you look at that? No introductions needed then.”Cassiel shifted his attention to his younger brother, then back to Thalina.“She the best friend you were talking about?”Ronan nodded.For a brief moment, Thalina thought she caught something in Cassiel’s gaze—a hint of pity—but she brushed it off.“Thalina,” she introduced, extending her hand. “It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve heard a lot about you from Ronan.”Cassiel let out a soft chuckle as he took her hand.“Ronan never has anything nice to say about me,” he said. “But I hope he hasn’t painted me too badly in front of you. I’m Cassiel—you can call me Ca

  • Regret After Divorce: My Billionaire Ex Begs Me Back   Resignation Letter

    Thalina spent the rest of the night turning everything over in her mind.By the time dawn broke the next morning, she knew exactly what she needed to do.She turned off the alarm on her phone, got dressed, then left Ronan a short note thanking him before heading to work.The moment she arrived, she didn’t stop at her desk, she went straight to Evander’s office.Two knocks was all it took for her to open his door without waiting for a response.Evander looked up from the paperwork on his desk. For a brief second, something flickered in his eyes—something unreadable—before it disappeared just as quickly as he lowered his gaze again.“What is it?” he asked.Thalina walked up to his desk and placed the document in her hand in front of him.“I’m submitting my resignation letter.”Evander’s fingers stilled around the pen he was holding.He looked up again, his expression flat.“What?”Thalina didn’t flinch. She didn’t look away.She had already made up her mind.With less than a year left t
