I was halfway through reviewing a stack of documents when the door to my office opened. I glanced up, expecting my assistant, but Ellen walked in instead.
Something about her expression made me pause. She looked unusually serious, almost unsettled.
"Why are you here?" I asked, setting down my pen.

LEILA"Please, baby. Stay with me." I held Mila's little hand between both of mine, rubbing her fingers gently as Doreen spoke urgently into her phone. Mila's eyes remained closed, and the faint sound she had made moments earlier was the only response I had received."Yes, she's breathing, but she's barely responding," Doreen told the emergency operator. "Her fever is very high, and her breathing is faster than normal."I looked at my daughter, fighting the urge to shake her awake. "Mila, sweetheart, Mommy's here." I brushed her hair away from her forehead, but she didn't move.The sound of approaching sirens finally broke through the silence outside. Doreen ended the call and hurried to open the door just as two paramedics entered, carrying medical equipment.

LEILA"How are you holding up, Leila?""I'm fine, Karl." I turned to leave, but he called after me."Please, Leila. Just give me a minute."I stopped, though I didn't turn around immediately.He approached, his expression unusually serious. "I heard what happened to George. I can't imagine what you've been going through.""What do you want, Karl?" I asked, finally facing him."I just wanted to know how you and your daughter are holding up. And if there's anything I can do to help, anything at all...""Thank you, Karl." I cut him off before he could say more. Then I turned and continued toward my car without looking back.By the time I reached it, the shopping bags were digging into my fingers. All I wanted was to get home. I placed them in the back seat before opening the driver's door and slipping inside.My eyes immediately went to Mila. She was still resting quietly in her seat, her little face looking pale and tired. I reached over and gently brushed the back of my fingers against

LEILA"You're telling me that after two weeks, you still have no information about him?" I stared at the man seated behind the desk, struggling to keep my voice steady."Mrs. Stonne, I've explained the situation to you several times. We can only give you information that has been verified by the authorities.""Verified?" I repeated, my fingers tightening around the edge of his desk. "Other families have been contacted. They've been told what happened to their loved ones. Some have even received confirmation that their relatives were among the victims. Why is it different with George?"The man exhaled, shifting uncomfortably in his chair. "We are doing everything we can. The recovery operation has been extremely difficult, and the identification process takes time. We cannot give you information that hasn't been officially confirmed.""It's been fourteen days!" My voice cracked. "I've been coming here, making calls, asking the same questions every single day. All I want is to know wher

KARLI was halfway through reviewing a stack of documents when the door to my office opened. I glanced up, expecting my assistant, but Ellen walked in instead.Something about her expression made me pause. She looked unusually serious, almost unsettled."Why are you here?" I asked, setting down my pen.She didn't answer immediately. I leaned back in my chair. "If you're here to talk about Jennifer again, I'm not interested.""That's not why I came." Her voice was quieter than usual.I studied her face. "Then what is it?"She walked closer to my desk, her eyes fixed on mine. "Have you seen the news?"
THE WIFE HE THREW AWAY: My ex-husband's regret { THE ACCIDENT }
GEORGETHE NIGHT BEFORE LEILA'S BIRTHDAYThe steady hum of the engines filled the cabin as I leaned back in my seat, staring out through the small window. Somewhere below us, the lights of the cities had begun to disappear beneath the darkness. We had been in the air for several hours, and the journey had been relatively smooth.I loosened my tie and glanced at my watch. I should have been home by now. If my private jet hadn't needed that unexpected maintenance, I would have been with Leila and Mila hours ago. Instead, I was stuck on a commercial flight, watching the minutes pass while the two people I wanted to see most waited for me.The thought of Leila waiting at home made me restless. I shifted in my seat and looked toward the aisle, briefly considering asking the flight attendant how much longer we had left. There was no point. The pilot had already given us an estimated arrival time, and there was nothing I could do to make us get there faster.A few minutes later, a flight att

LEILAThe sound of my ringtone jolted me awake. I sat up abruptly, reaching for my phone on the couch. For a moment, I thought it was George finally calling. But when I glanced at the screen, my heart sank. Doreen.I answered, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. "Hello?""Good morning, Leila. Are you still at home? I was wondering when you'd be coming into the office." I glanced toward the staircase. "I haven't decided yet. I don't think I'll be coming in today.""The clients from Switzerland are already here, Leila. They've been waiting to meet with you."I sighed, leaning back against the couch. "Doreen, I really don't think I can make it to the office today. Can you explain the situation to them and reschedule the meeting?""We've already rescheduled twice," she replied. "They've travelled all this way specifically for this meeting, and I don't think postponing it again would leave the right impression."I closed my eyes briefly, wishing I could avoid the office altogether. "Can't you
