By morning, Lyra’s resolve was firmly set as she prepared for the workday ahead.

She woke to several new outfits waiting for her — dispatched, of course, by Laurent. She didn’t argue. There was no point. He was going to do whatever he wanted regardless.

Deep down, though, she was fiercely grateful.

At least she wouldn't have to spend the day wearing the lingering memories and scent of Tristan attached to her old clothes.

She slipped into a sleek black sweater and a pair of dark, tailored jeans

You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 39: Bombs
The daytime air was freezing inside the abandoned sub-basement of St. Agnes Hospital.It didn't smell like antiseptic and clean hospital floors down here; it smelled like damp concrete, rusted iron, and decades of forgotten dust.Above them, the upper floors of St. Agnes were buzzing with doctors, nurses, and patients. But here in the decommissioned 1990s west wing, the world was completely dead. Owen had used a quiet administrative override to clear their entry through a back service bay, allowing Laurent's private security team to slip inside without drawing a single glance from the active medical staff upstairs.Laurent walked half a pace ahead of Lyra, his broad frame shielding her as they navigated the dark, narrow hallway. He didn't touch her, but the heavy, protective heat of his presence was unmistakable.“The infrastructure here was cut from the city grid back in 1998,” Owen whispered, tapping his diagnostic screen as they reached a heavy steel door marked Sub-Level 4 — Archi
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 38: Intense Tensions
Lyra woke before her alarm with the kind of regret that didn’t feel like regret so much as a sudden, breathless free fall.The laptop was still sitting on the marble counter right where she’d slammed it shut hours ago. Her body remembered everything her pride desperately wanted to edit out—the scorching heat, the raw rasp of his voice through the speakers, and the wild, uninhibited way she’d shown him things she had never planned to reveal to anyone ever again.Lois’s guest room door remained firmly closed. Jet lag, Lyra thought, relieved for the quiet buffer.She showered for much longer than necessary, letting the steaming water burn away the flush still lingering on her skin. She changed three separate times before leaving the apartment, finally settling on an armored outfit: a high-necked, charcoal-gray silk blouse paired with tailored black trousers—pristine, sharp, and completely unreadable.Before slipping out, she scribbled a quick note and left it on the kitchen island:(He

“Well, I’ve always hated the way she treated you,” Lois said, shrugging casually, setting her glass down. “But I would never have guessed that, Lyra. Are you sure? About any of this?”She searched Lyra’s eyes. Lyra had nothing solid to give her — only the mismatch, the threats, and a fear that had started sleeping in her chest.“Well,” Lyra said, standing up from the sofa. “There’s only one way to find out. Get some rest, Lois. It’s late, and I still have to show up at the office tomorrow.”Lois offered a warm smile, stood up, and pulled her into a tight, grounding hug. “I’m going to take a long, hot shower now and try to call my kids.”Lyra nodded softly. Lois walked toward the guest room, pulling the door shut behind her.And Lyra walked back over to the counter and sank onto the high leather stool.She opened her laptop—not to work, not fully—just to stare at the encrypted folder where she had saved the scanned St. Agnes pages. As the screen glowed, her mind drifted to the life gr
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 36: Just Never Fucking Get Married.
Back at Lyra’s new residence, her best friend, Lois Bennett, arrived like a small natural disaster in heels.She took one sweeping look at the luxurious Helios executive apartment—floor-to-ceiling glass, quiet money, and a skyline view that tried entirely too hard—and let out a long, appreciative whistle.“I didn’t realize a messy divorce was a direct gateway to living lavish,” Lois retorted, making Lyra burst into a genuine laugh as she helped carry her friend's luggage toward the guest room.“So this is what ‘complicated’ looks like,” Lois continued, kicking the door shut with her heel. “I brought wine. Looking at you right now, you look like you need a high-priced lawyer and a priest.”They hugged—tightly, holding on like two people who had been separated by an entire ocean for ages.When they finally pulled apart, Lyra offered a faint, exhausted smile. “I need about three days of sleep.”“You need to talk,” Lois countered, setting the wine bottle down on the marble island. She sca
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 35: Feral
At his Marina Bay apartment, Tristan walked in heavy, exhausted, and utterly defeated. He sank onto the sofa like a man carrying the weight of a collapsing world.He tossed his tie furiously onto the hardwood floor and began battling with the buttons of his shirt, tearing at them with raw frustration.“Are you okay?”Bianca’s voice came from the doorway, soft, careful. She moved to sit beside him—“Don’t.”He shoved her back hard enough that she jerked with a sharp sound.“What was that for?!” she gasped, her eyes widening in hurt as she stared into his bloodshot, wild eyes.He didn't offer a single word of apology. Instead, he stood up unsteadily and walked toward the wet bar to pour himself a heavy glass of liquor.“Who is Benson?” His voice dropped into a low, dead octave that echoed coldly through the quiet living room, making Bianca freeze in her tracks, her heart hammering against her ribs.“What...?” she stammered, blinking rapidly. “Why are you asking me that?”“I SAID—” Trista
You Dumped Me, Now Watch Me (The last call) Chapter 34: Crossing a Line
He didn't give her room to retreat, and for the first time all day, Lyra didn't want any.The kiss didn’t stay gentle for long. It was deep, demanding, and born from weeks of dangerous proximity and shared fires.Their hands roamed hungrily. Lyra’s fingers found the front of his shirt, tugging his tie loose, while Laurent’s hands tightened at the back of her neck before slipping down to the zipper of her blouse, pulling her closer until there was zero careful distance left between them.Lyra let out a quiet gasp against his mouth, her hands moving instinctively up to the back of his neck, her fingers tangling tightly into his hair. Laurent’s arm wrapped around her waist like a band of iron, pulling her against his chest until she felt every ragged beat of his heart.The heat radiating between them was intoxicating. He tasted like smoke and expensive scotch, kissing her with a fierce, possessive intensity that made her head spin and her body melt completely against his solid frame.L
