ROMAN'S POV “Like I said,” Lauren started, her voice calm but her expression focused on me like she wasn’t ready to let the topic slide, “let’s start with your ex. I saw the way you reacted when I first brought up the topic, and you told me you were faithful to her once, a few days ago. So… what exactly happened?” She asked it gently, but there was firmness in her tone. She wanted answers, and somehow I knew she deserved them. “I’ll tell you on one condition though,” I said, pointing slightly toward her as I shifted in my seat, “once we’re done here, you’re gonna go get ready for your meetings. Work always comes first.” She let out a light sigh, almost like my reminder was the last thing she wanted to hear. “Fine… agreed,” she said, but it sounded like she was agreeing under protest. Like she genuinely didn’t feel like going anywhere. “Alright,” I said, taking in a slow breath. “There’s nothing much to tell about that part of my life anyway. My ex-wife didn’t want something that

LAUREN'S POV Five days had passed since the accident. Five days since I watched Elizabeth fall to the ground, unable to feel her own legs. Five days since the ambulance sirens filled the air and paramedics surrounded her while Roman stood beside me, blood still drying on his temple. I hadn't been able to stop thinking about it. About her. About him. About everything. The hospital had kept Roman overnight for observation after they stitched up the gash on his head. Mild concussion, they said. Nothing too serious, but they wanted to monitor him. I stayed in that sterile waiting room until they let me see him, my hands shaking the entire time, replaying the image of him stepping out of the car with blood running down his face. All because of me. Now, I stood outside his bedroom door in his estate, my hand resting on the handle but not yet turning it.
