Semua Bab Dear Ex-wife, You Belong To Me!: Bab 61 - Bab 70

CHRISTIANDarkness—that's all I could see around me. I was trapped in an unknown dungeon, and for a while, I didn't know how to escape from that tormenting imprisonment.Nevertheless, that gentle, calming voice—my sole source of comfort during that difficult confinement—is hers, Veronica's, and it sustains my hope.In that moment of vulnerability, her soothing guidance kept me alive and motivated. I followed her voice. I don't know for how long, but I didn't give up.At one point, I also heard from Zeon, who pleaded with me to return to him, which gave me renewed hope. Then, my mother's remorseful pleas urged me to return to her as well.With the support of my family and loved ones, a glimmer of hope appeared on the horizon. I eagerly pursued it and was soon enveloped in its radiant glow…My eyes were fluttering, and my eyelids felt like they weighed a ton.“Christian…?”Her gentle voice pierced my awareness, causing me to forcibly open my eyes. Initially, my vision was blurry, but he

VERONICAMy heart beat rapidly upon seeing Matilda. However, I attempted to remain calm, as it was our first meeting, and technically, I should not have been privy to their conversation.I flashed my most professional smile at her, “Hello, Ms. Petersfield, how can I help you?”Her gaze was sharp, intently studying me for a few seconds before her smile widened. "Might I borrow a moment of your time, Doctor? I won't keep you long," she said gently. If I hadn't heard her threats to ruin my life that day, I might not have believed that she was the same woman.I pursed my lips. Even though it sounded like a request, in my heart I’m well aware that it wasn't a request but a command.“Well, alright, Ms. Petersfield, please take a seat.” I offered her a seat opposite of me.She sat down, looking around my chamber for a while, her gaze fixed on me. “I must say, you have quite an exquisite taste, Dr. Granger.”

VERONICAI looked in the mirror; staring back at me was a gorgeous woman in a beautiful dark green satin dress. Her beautiful face had a touch of light makeup, and she complemented her look with burgundy lips.Smiling at my reflection, I retrieved my purse and took a deep breath. Today, I am going on a date with William.That evening, I had agreed to go on a date with him. I didn't know if anything would change between us tonight, but I knew I couldn't deny him, not after how he had helped me.Therefore, I accepted his request.Soon, I descended the stairs. Upon my arrival, I noticed everyone looking at me."Oh my goodness, Vero!" Zaya gasped, clasping her hands to her mouth.Aunt Lucy was staring at me as well; her thoughts were incomprehensible.My two children were also looking at me, their wide eyes making me feel a little self-conscious.I scratched my neck, “what's wrong, guys? Am I looking too weird?”

CHRISTIANAfter powering down my computer, I reclined in my chair, letting out an involuntary sigh as I gazed out the window. The clear evening sky presented a breathtaking view, illuminated by a half-moon and several bright stars.I was, however, unable to fully appreciate the view due to my current circumstances. The weather seemed quite romantic, which only served to highlight my lack of romance in my life.A dull ache settled in my chest. Many advised me to move on from Veronica, and if I perhaps did, then surely I wouldn't have a lack of a partner to accompany me on such nights.Despite my best efforts, I found it impossible to move on. Veronica remains the only woman I can ever imagine being with. She was my first love and perhaps always will be. Over the past three years, I've repeatedly tried to forget her, but without success. Reuniting with her after three years rekindled my feelings, but her clear affection for her first love left me heartbroke

DIANAI got out of my car and looked around before covering my head with a scarf and walking into the restaurant.It's a small, quiet restaurant in the countryside. There's a pub on one corner and tables arranged on the other.I sat at a table as I heard a few people laughing in the pub. I ignored them and sat there with my face covered.“Excuse me, madam, would you care to order anything?” A young girl, appearing to be a waitress, approached me with a smile."I'll have one coffee, no sugar, please." I stated."May I assist you with anything further?" she politely asked."No, thank you," I replied and dismissed her.Following her departure, I surveyed my surroundings with a slight frown. This certainly isn't my usual preference, but I had no other option. After some time, the restaurant door opened, and a middle-aged gentleman entered. He, too, seemed uncertain, furrowing his brow at his surroundings.I waved at him, and noticing me, he came to my table and sat opposite me."Mrs. Wolf
