Semua Bab Who's the One Regretting Now?: Bab 781 - Bab 790

Macie snapped, "My design proposal took an entire month to prepare. I was still working on revisions at home after hours. I went through over a hundred case studies. That's the result of my hard work, yet to you, it's nothing more than something I was handed on a silver platter."You say someone else did it for me? Where's the proof? You've got nothing, yet you speak so freely. I guess slander comes cheap, right?"Although Macie spoke calmly, the anger in her voice was unmistakable. For a moment, no one could refute her."I've said from the beginning that Mr. Atkins and I are just former classmates. As for Mr. Fowler, we're already divorced. I did not use any man to climb my way up."You want to know how I got the elevator pass? When Brightech Studios was first founded, I helped secure its investment. I was granted shareholder status and received dividends. Do you think it's a problem for someone like me to have a private elevator pass?"Next time you want to spread dirty rumors,

For two years, Edward had eaten food like this every day. However, it had now become a luxury—something he could only taste again while lying sick in a hospital bed.The dishes were light and easy to digest. The fish was tender and free of bones, carrying none of the usual fishy taste, only its clean, natural freshness.The broth was clear and flavorful, with a perfect balance of meat and vegetables that preserved the original taste of the ingredients.Edward ate while sniffling. He had no regrets about taking the hit for Macie. At that moment, her cooking felt like an unexpected gift—one that filled him with emotion and joy.The room was silent, and not a single word was spoken.Yosef watched Edward, a grown man, eat and cry simultaneously. It made him feel like his grandson was utterly hopeless. Still, Yosef didn't scold him.A bowl of broth and a few sides were all it took to make Edward cry. Perhaps if Edward had treated Macie kindly from the start, things wouldn't have come

Edward had initially been attracted to Macie and nearly fell for her when he thought she might be the person he was looking for. However, he wasn't the type to let emotions cloud his judgment. After confirming she wasn't the one, he let go of whatever feelings he had for her and turned all his attention to Sharon. Yet, he never imagined that their paths would cross again. At that time, Yosef had forced him to break up with Sharon and marry Macie instead. Edward was convinced that Macie had pulled some strings to get his grandfather to make the arrangement. From then on, he began to resent her and hurl insults at her.The ward was silent, and it was already dark outside. Edward opened his eyes and glanced at the wall clock. It was already 10:00 pm. Life never stopped surprising him, and fate had its own strange rhythm. He had fallen for Macie all over again, deeper than he ever thought possible. As for Sharon, whatever he once felt for her was long gone.But by then, the damage

Sharon and Macie were both women, but going to that house meant stepping into a situation that could've gone very wrong. And if Elias remembered correctly, Mitch had just said Macie had nearly…"Why was Macie the one who was almost assaulted? Wasn't that bastard initially targeting Sharon?" Elias asked, frowning."Are you sure you want to hear the truth?" Mitch asked hesitantly.Elias' expression darkened as he began to piece things together. "Don't tell me you're about to say that Sharon set this whole thing up and that she deliberately lured Macie there?" he coldly asked. "No, no. Ms. Emerson wasn't that vicious back then," Mitch quickly responded.Elias felt a moment of relief, but it was short-lived as Mitch continued, "But she wasn't far off, either. After Macie arrived, the two of them tried to escape together. But when they found a room, Ms. Emerson ducked inside and locked the door behind her, leaving Macie stranded outside."Macie later went into another room and esca

"Got it…" Edward muttered.Nolan raised his hospital bed to a sitting position, then set the meal on the bedside table. Edward ate slowly while savoring every bite. He had thought that yesterday would be his last home-cooked meal, but Macie had surprised him again that day. He knew he only got to enjoy these meals because he was hospitalized, but even so, her cooking felt like an unexpected silver lining.At that moment, Nolan mentioned to Yosef that Macie would be attending Alice's birthday party. He also added that he had arranged for the bodyguard to follow and protect her."Find someone to stay close to Macie and go in with her. Security is tight at these events, but…" Yosef pressed his lips together, leaving the sentence unfinished.But if the Hale family brought Sharon in, the Hart family couldn't refuse them. That was precisely why Macie needed protection.Nolan understood the unspoken message. He briefed the bodyguard following Macie and also notified the Hart family i
