Semua Bab Fractured Hearts : Bab 11 - Bab 20

Phoebe's eyelids drooped, heavy with sleep, but she refused to give in, her mind stubbornly fixated on Archie's return. She'd been waiting for what felt like an eternity, her anger and hurt simmering just below the surface. The more she thought about the event, the more she convinced herself that Archie had been involved; he'd deliberately set out to hurt her. And yet, he'd made no effort to reach out, to apologize, to explain.As the hours ticked by, her anxiety grew, her mind racing with worst-case scenarios. She'd tried calling Archie repeatedly, but he'd ignored her calls, his phone eventually switching to voicemail. The silence was deafening, her imagination running wild with fears and doubts. 'What if Archie is with Rosie?' The thought sent a pang of jealousy and fear through her chest.Just as she was starting to lose hope, the sound of Archie's car horn pierced the night air, followed by the soft crunch of gravel beneath his tires. Her head snapped up, her eyes narrowing as

Archie's impatience grew with every passing minute. He checked his wristwatch for what felt like the hundredth time, his mind racing with worst-case scenarios. Was Dominic deliberately keeping him waiting? Was this some kind of power play?Hannah's polite smile seemed to hide a secret, and Archie's doubts simmered just below the surface. He wondered if Dominic had instructed her to string him along, to wear him down until he lost his nerve and left.The waiting room's sterile decor seemed to close in around him, suffocating him with its silence. His anxiety spiked, his foot tapping out a restless rhythm on the floor. He needed to see Dominic, to plead his case and salvage what was left of his business. 'Should I leave?'One part of him urged him to leave, to abandon this futile attempt, but the other part, fueled by desperation and determination, kept him rooted. Dominic emerged from the conference room, but was oblivious to Archie's presence, his back turned as he answered a call.

"It's either the president shows his face or steps down. He must do either of the two!" Reginald's voice boomed through the conference room, his frustration and anger palpable. As the second-largest shareholder of Azel Organization after the president, he had the clout to challenge the president's anonymity.The directors who had aligned themselves with Reginald quickly stood up in support, their voices rising in a chorus of demands. "He should show his face! If he can't reveal himself, he can step down!"Dominic watched the outburst with a mixture of exhaustion and resignation. He had grown tired of these emergency meetings, which seemed to have become a weekly occurrence. The shareholders' demands for the president to reveal himself had become a tired refrain, and he was fed up with trying to placate them."Directors…" he called, attempting to start a conversation, even if he didn't have a solution to offer just yet.Reginald's piercing stare silenced Dominic, leaving no room for fu

"Hun!" Phoebe's eyes almost bulg out of her sockets as she stared at the screen, her mind reeling in shock. At first, she was taken aback by Rosie's sudden appearance, but as she watched the exchange, she couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions; surprise, curiosity, and a dash of envy. Just as she was lost in thought, Clementine's voice cut through the silence, "is anyone home?" Phoebe's eyes widened further, and she frantically scanned the room, her gaze darting around as she searched for the TV remote. Her mind was racing, and she couldn't to focus, afraid Clementine might regret supporting Rosie and Archie's divorce, and worst of all, blame her for it. The thought sent a wave of anxiety through her. As her hand closed around the remote, Clementine entered the room, her voice halting Phoebe's actions. "Rosie?" Clementine's tone was laced with a mix of amazement and irritation. She stepped forward, her face twisted in a scowl as if she'd tasted something bitter. "She's just som
