All Chapters of The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

ASHLEYI'd be lying if I said Zara's words hadn't struck a chord.They had.But I refused to let them get to me.None of this would've happened if she hadn't dragged us to this club in the first place, insisting we needed to have fun.I snatched my phone from the counter."Do you need help finding your friend?"I whipped my head toward the stranger.For the past few seconds, I'd completely forgotten he was there."No, it's fine." I quickly unlocked my phone and dialed Selene.The phone rang and rang. No answer. I tried again, biting anxiously at my nail as the same unanswered ringing filled my ear. Nothing. The chair beside me scraped against the floor. I looked up to find the stranger already on his feet. Standing, he was much taller than I'd imagined."I can't watch you panic like this." "What?""You're worried about her." He nodded toward my phone. "And you're clearly not going to calm down until you find her."I opened my mou

SEBASTIAN"Did you find out who arranged the meeting?" I asked, striding beside Vincent toward the conference room."It was Julian." I stopped for half a second.Of course it was.I exhaled slowly before continuing down the hallway.Everything Selene had told me about Julian still felt unbelievable. I couldn't understand why he would lie to her, let alone deliberately manipulate her into believing I wanted a divorce.And now, as if that wasn't enough, he'd gathered the entire board of directors without even informing me.We reached the conference room, and I didn't waste another second. I pushed the doors open and stormed inside.Every head turned.The directors stared at me, surprise flashing across their faces."What on earth is going on here?" I demanded, forcing my voice to remain calm.Silence.They exchanged uneasy glances, as though none of them wanted to be the first to speak.Julian finally leaned forward in his chair. "We were discussing the future of Kingsley Group."I turn

JULIANSebastian and Selene got back together?Of course they did.I squeezed my eyes shut, holding the steering wheel tighter as the realization settled over me.After everything I'd told her, she still forgave him.Everything.The doubts I'd planted. The recording I'd played. Every carefully chosen word meant to make her question him.And she still went back.I let out a bitter laugh.Is that love?Or is it simply foolishness dressed up as devotion?Either way, it changed things.I'd been so close.So damn close.Sebastian was supposed to be vulnerable. Distracted. Unstable enough for the board to question whether he was still capable of running Kingsley Group.And I was supposed to be the obvious choice to step in.But now?Now he had Selene.And somehow, that woman had given him something I couldn't afford to let him have.Stability.Confidence.A reason to fight.I started the car and pulled away from the curb.Fine.If one plan failed, I'd find another.The board didn't need to

JORDAN"Is there anything else you'd like to order?" Ella asked, looking at me.I glanced down at the menu, the same menu I hadn't been paying any attention to."I think I'll go with whatever you've ordered.""Alright." She smiled before turning to the waiter. "We'll have just that."The waiter nodded and walked away.I exhaled slowly, tugging at my tie. I was already regretting every decision that had led me to this restaurant.For starters, being too much of a coward to stand up to my own father.My gaze drifted toward the entrance, where two bodyguards stood outside. My father had assigned them to keep an eye on me, as if I were some rebellious teenager instead of a grown man."I'm really grateful you finally agreed to meet up," Ella said, picking up her glass of wine. "We should get to know each other before the engagement party."I looked at her."Are you..." I paused, narrowing my eyes slightly. "Are you actually happy about being engaged to me?"Ella chuckled as though I'd aske

ANTONI knocked lightly on Ashley's desk.She lifted her head from the file in front of her and looked at me.“Isn't it about time you went home?” I asked, leaning against the edge of her desk.She sighed and closed the file. “I just wanted to finish this, but we can leave now.”She gathered the documents, slid them into the drawer, and locked it.“I'm tired as hell.”“Zara called,” I said. “She said you weren't picking up.”“Really?” She reached into her bag and pulled out her phone. The moment she glanced at the screen, she groaned. “Shit. My phone was on silent.”“Come on. Pack up.”“I'm almost done.”She tucked the last file away before grabbing her bag and standing.“Now we can go.”I smiled and fell into step beside her as we headed toward the garage.For a few moments, we walked in silence.Then Ashley broke it.“So, how's everything been?”“Okay.”I slipped my hands into my pockets, keeping my gaze ahead.She glanced at me. “You're not going to tell me what kept you off the ra
