After that day, Astrid ended every business related to Rowan. she decided to think for herself and heal from the pain he had caused her.She tried to focus on other important things, ignoring the media's gossip about her divorce and Rowan's new engagement.Just as she was busy with her work, A tall charming figure walked into her office. She was too engrossed in the document in front of her to notice his presence."Good afternoon, Miss Everhart. Where would you like me to keep your lunch?""Leave it on the center table." she responded still focused on her work."And when do you plan to eat it?" "I said leave it on the table. And as you leave, I don't want to be bothered for the rest of the day," she ordered with a stern voice without looking up to see who she was talking to."Hmm, I guess you are too busy to entertain me. But it is important you eat something if you want to stay strong while working," he said, taking away the document in front of her.Astrid shot her head up, annoyed

"What the heck is wrong with you?" Astrid barked at Rowan pushing him away from Scott. After witnessing the brutal punch Rowan landed on Scott's face, she quickly unclipped the seatbelt holding her back with a speed that she didn't believe she had.Scott bent over to the ground, holding his bleeding nose as he groaned in pain."Why would you hit him like that? Are you out of your mind?!" Astrid yelled furiously, hitting Rowan's chest as she ranted."I should be the one asking you questions! Why would a married woman be with another man and kiss right before her husband's eyes?!" He roared, grabbing Astrid's arm roughly."You are crazy! I guess you are too mental to remember that we are divorced, you animal!" Astrid screamed back."Divorced? just because I let you mess around as you wished doesn't mean that you can dive into another man's arms. You think we are divorced?" he scoffed as she glared at him. "You must be really stupid to think that I would sign those pathetic papers and s

Sometimes, things are not always meant to be. Even if it means hurting someone just to prevent it from happening. And that was what Astrid had done. She moved away from Scott, regretting her decision to engage him when deep down, she was still hurting and yet to heal."I am sorry, Scott. But I don't think we can walk out. What happened between us will be saved in my heart. Just act like nothing ever happened between us," she coldly said, getting up to leave but he grabbed her hand and stopped her from taking another step."How am I supposed to act like nothing happened between us, Astrid? I just gave you the permission to use me as you want.""Even if it's to get back to my ex?" "Yes.""No, that's what I cannot do. I am not selfish and inconsiderate, Scott. I know what it feels like not to be loved back by the person you cherish the most. How can I make someone else suffer the same thing I passed through, knowing how deep it hurts?. I won't do that to you, never. Let's just be frien

Back to the day Astrid presented her divorce papers.Rowan rumbled nonstop, causing under his breath as he stared at the signed divorce papers his wife had given to him.His stomped his left foot in agitation, glaring back and forth at the papers and the lawyer she had submitted it to for finalization in court."Mr. Wade...""Burn it all." He growled, terrifying the poor lawyer to death."but I have already sent the document to the magistrate court...""Do you not like your job anymore? How dare you send those documents without informing me? If you don't want to face my wrath, you better find a means to withdraw the grant," he coldly said before walking out of the lawyer's office.He was extremely furious that Astrid had taken matters into her hands without confronting him properly. The fact that she went through his company's lawyer and faced the biggest betrayal from him made him go crazy.There was no way he was going to let her go. Especially when her birthday is tomorrow. He to

The cold silence of the night added to the intense atmosphere created by Rowan and Astrid. They were both seated, facing each other across a large s-shaped dining table.Neither of them wanted to talk, but their eyes held so many questions that needed to be answered.After a short while, when Astrid got up to leave, He decided to break the silence between them. "Please, sit down.""Please? That does not sound like you." "Will you like it if I had asked harshly?""That will depend on how you say it."Rowan narrowed his eyes straight at her as they darkened. "Sit down, Astrid." He commanded with a cold voice."That's better." Astrid sat back on her chair and looked straight at him.He got up from where he sat, walked over to the side she was sitting, pulled out a chair beside her and sat down. She stared at him confused, questioning his behavior with her gaze."Don't just look at me, say something if you want to. I won't bite you if you do," Rowan said, then abruptly pulled her chair
