Then he smiled at everyone. “I promise this won’t be a long speech.”Laughter spread through the audience. Everyone was emanating positivity and happiness. It felt for a moment that after this nothing can go wrong as it looked too good to be perfect. Noone had imagined the storm coming after it. .....amidst everything Lily smiled mischievously knowing when what was coming after that. All the things she had plotted for tonight.

The Billionaire's Resentful Wife Chapter-35, The spiral thoughts.
Ever since Lily had read that blue diary, she could not stop thinking about it. A tornado of thoughts unleashed in her mind and she didn't know how to control that. It followed her everywhere. In those meetings, in conversation, into her dreams everywhere. She felt restless.No matter how hard she tried to focus on the gala, the words she had read returned again and again, crawling through her mind like a poison that refused to leave.At first, she had been shocked. Then she felt confusion clouding her head until she felt deeply hurt. Now she was angry.Furiously, endlessly angry.The worst part was not that Elara loved Charlie. The worst part was how long she had loved him. All these years she had been in love with him that it look like a fucking obsession and Lily was reluctant to accept it until she read that diary. The diary contained page after page of memories, moments and thoughts. Those were the things Charlie himself had probably forgotten and Lily had never imagined anyone
The Billionaire's Resentful Wife Chapter-34, the discovery.
Lily stared out of the window into the darkness and for the first time since the rehearsal—she wasn’t thinking about Charlie.She was thinking about the diary.And the terrible possibility that it contained exactly what she feared.The Blue DiaryIt laid before her eyes. The room was silent.Too silent that it felt emptier. She didn't understood what felt more emptier, her heart or the room. She felt void even though she was getting her answers today. Lily sat on the edge of Elara’s bed carrying the blue diary which rested in her trembling hands. She was scared that it might contained something that could frightened her existence. She was very petrified to open it. For several seconds, she simply stared at it just blankly as if staring at it would get her answers.The cover has been worn. The edges were softer. The pages swollen from years of use.Years.The realization unsettled in her heart immediately.This wasn’t just a notebook. It wasn’t a journal Elara kept for years. Mayb

She naturally own the space and people around her. She had made herself so attractive that the appreciation comes running after her. It was all ordinary for her.So when the feeling first appeared, she almost didn’t recognize it. She had witnessed it gradually but it grew into something strong after the rehearsal. After seeing, Elara looking at Charlie. It didn't seem like a tiny infatuation but something stronger than that. She felt stupid to not notice it beforehand.Not once.Not twice.But over and over again.The memory followed her home like a shadow. And the more she tried to ignore it, the larger it became. The worst part was that she couldn’t tell whether she was imagining things but she

A week before the gala, the ballroom finally began to resemble the vision everyone had been chasing for months.For the first time since preparations had begun, people stopped rushing long enough to admire it. The transformation was almost surreal.The massive hall that had once been filled with ladders, tangled wires, cardboard boxes, and exhausted students now glowed beneath the soft golden lighting. Crystal chandeliers reflected warm light across the floors. Elegant centerpieces rested on every table. White and gold drapery framed the stage beautifully.It wasn’t perfect yet.But it was close.Close enough to make the months of stress feel worthwhile.Elara stood near the entrance holding a clipboard against her chest as she watched volunteers make final adjustments.Someone was straightening table runners.Someone else was testing microphones.A group of students argued quietly over the floral arrangements. The familiar chaos still remained.Only now it looked beautiful.A small s
