“I will send all the information to you, but promise me you won't share this with anyone, Camilla. You can't just trust anyone,” Max said quietly over the phone.

I exhaled softly. “Just send it, Max. I should be more worried about you deceiving me.”

He exhaled slowly. “I promise I'm doing this because of how nice your parents were to me. They were really trying to adopt me, but the reason they didn't was because I was already legally adopted by current patients. As I said, their deaths

  • The Divorce Game    Chapter 65: She's Mine

    SEBASTIAN “Sir, everyone is already gone,” Charles said carefully, his eyes darting to me nervously through the rearview mirror.I kept tapping my thigh, my gaze locked on the restaurant's front entrance. Why isn't Camilla coming out? She had been in there for over thirty minutes. What could they possibly be discussing in private? I shut my eyes, my fist tightening into a hard knot. I hated this damn feeling—it was infuriatingly distracting. Last night, I couldn't get a single hour of proper rest, consumed by the paranoid thought that bastard Max was still inside her house... only to watch the both of them show up together this morning. Damn it, this is driving me crazy. I have to talk to Camilla. Suddenly, the glass door clicked open. She stepped outside, her face burning with fury. My heart skipped a beat as I tracked her every movement. Max emerged right behind her, frantically trying to grab her wrist, but she yanked her arm away. I could tell he was trying to explain away w

  • The Divorce Game    Chapter 64: Who Is This Boss

    CAMILLA I couldn't believe my eyes. What was the meaning of this gathering? Why did the woman sitting over there look so strangely familiar, and why on earth were she and the man sitting close to her hiding? It was painfully obvious they were trying to conceal their faces from either Max or me. And Sebastian... why was he here, meeting with Max's foster father again? Not only that, but he was with Lyra. Did she go back to his place after everything that happened last night? Why did I get the unsettling feeling that Sebastian was keeping his every move hidden from me? The last time I saw him and Max's foster father together, I never asked for an explanation, but now my curiosity was burning. Still, part of me tried to rationalise that perhaps it was just business. Max slipped his hand into mine, wrapping his fingers around mine tightly. My brow furrowed in confusion. What is he doing? He leaned closer, whispering softly into my ear, “Remember, I told my foster father you were my

  • The Divorce Game    Chapter 63: Strange Feelings

    SEBASTIAN Charles pulled into the driveway of the restaurant where I had once met William. According to Charles, he had asked William to schedule a venue, while he had only provided the time. “Sir, Dr William and the woman are already waiting inside,” Charles said from the front seat. “And Lyra? Did you send her the message?” “Yes, sir,” Charles replied instantly. I gave a faint nod of satisfaction. I stepped out of the car and made my way inside, scoffing at the sight in front of me: William was seated with two people—a woman nearly in her late thirties and a man much older than her. So this is the daughter of that couple? If those parents were still alive, they would probably be in their fifties by now. How could they possibly have a daughter her age? “Welcome, Mr Castillo. Please, have a seat,” William offered. I exhaled and sat down on the single sofa across from them. "Mr Castillo, you look so handsome off-camera! It's an honour to meet you,” the woman began eagerly.

  • The Divorce Game    Chapter 62: Focus On The King

    SEBASTIAN I waved my hand to the guard in dismissal and made my way inside.I took my time freshening up, and after a few minutes, I came downstairs to eat my meal.I wanted to know if her coming here was out of total desperation or if she came to find out why I had called her over in the first place. One thing I knew about that disgusting woman was that she was completely shameless. She never thought about anything before she acted—she just did whatever favoured her at any given moment.I wouldn't be surprised if she had shamelessly come over to beg for money. Charles had reported that a sum of five million was recently transferred to her new account, and the sender was William.That was shocking.After I revoked every privilege she had connected to the Castillo assets, I knew she had no money on her. But I was still curious as to why William had sent money to her. He had already thrown her under the bus and asked me to lock her up in prison for betraying me.Why would he suddenly s

  • The Divorce Game    Chapter 61: Shattered Trust

    CAMILLA I clicked the door open and froze.Max was standing in front of me, holding a first aid kit and a container of takeout.“I noticed you hurt your ankle,” he blurted out, holding up the first aid kit.My brow furrowed. It was just a minor scrape from my heels—how had he even noticed it?Suddenly, his eyes widened as he took in my face, and he rushed toward me. “Who on earth did this?” he demanded quickly, his voice dripping with fury.I shoved him back, my confusion growing. Why was he acting so deeply concerned? “Who the hell did this to you, Camilla?” Max snapped.“It was me,” a voice cut in from behind me.Lyra stepped toward the doorway. The moment her eyes fell on Max, she froze in her tracks. Her eyes widened in absolute horror, her finger trembling as she pointed at him.“He… he—” she stammered, before abruptly turning around and sprinting back inside.I stared at Max in complete confusion. His expression looked just as perplexed as mine.“What’s wrong with her? And why

They were really trying to adopt me, but the reason they didn't was because I was already legally adopted by current patients. As I said, their deaths really made me sad, and since you've taken an interest in finding out the truth, I think it's best to step in. So Camilla, believe me.”I took deep breaths. “I will wait for the information, Max,” I said, and hung up.Instantly, a message popped up on my phone from him. I clicked on it:“This information is critical and can't be shared over the phone. Let's meet tomorrow at the restaurant where we met last time.”I sighed and clicked my car door open. I had gotten home almost thirty minutes ago
