Too Late to Win Me Back, Mr. Ex! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 101 - チャプター 110

The drive back to Nocture felt calmer than before. The midday roads weren’t too crowded, leaving enough space for the car to move at an unhurried pace. Inside, the atmosphere had shifted as well—not entirely light, but steady enough to let each breath come a little easier. Auri sat in the back seat beside Gia, her body more relaxed against the seat, though her hand still drifted to her stomach now and then, as if quietly reassuring herself that everything was fine.Lucas, behind the wheel, didn’t say much at first. Every so often, his eyes flicked to the rearview mirror, checking on Auri’s condition. But the silence wasn’t uncomfortable—it felt intentional, like a space left open for Auri to sort through everything in her own time.“You don’t have to dwell too much on what happened back there,” Lucas said eventually, his voice calm, without pressure.Auri turned her head slightly. “It’s hard not t

The courtroom that day felt different from two weeks before. It wasn’t more crowded, nor was it louder, but the atmosphere had grown heavier—like everyone present had come carrying something, ready to lay it down.Auri stepped inside with a steadier rhythm, her breathing even, her steps no longer hesitant. Gia walked beside her, while behind them, their legal team carried neatly organized files. As soon as Auri took her seat, her eyes caught two figures across the room—Valencia and Anna.This time, neither of them made a sound. No sharp remarks, no deliberate scoffs meant to be overheard. And somehow, that was what made it different—their gazes were sharper, colder, as if they were already certain of how this would end.“They look… calm,” Gia whispered.Auri didn’t turn. “Because they think they’ve already won.”Gia let out a quiet breath. “We’ll see.”Not l

The courthouse hallway still echoed with voices that hadn’t fully settled when Ethan strode out of the courtroom. His face was tight, his steps no longer as controlled as before. The moment he reached a quieter corner, he turned sharply to his lawyer.“Show me that document,” he said, his voice edged.The lawyer studied him for a moment. “We’ll get a copy once it’s officially verified.”“I don’t care about procedure,” Ethan cut in. “I want to know how she managed to bring in evidence like that.”“And that’s exactly why we need to confirm its validity first,” the lawyer replied, still calm. “If it’s fabricated, we can strike back.”Ethan exhaled sharply, his jaw tightening. “It has to be fake.”Behind him, softer footsteps approached. Anna walked in, struggling to hold back her tears, one hand covering part of her face. Vale

The harsh white lights of the hospital corridor felt almost blinding as Auri was rushed into the treatment room, the wheels of the gurney echoing against the cold walls. Her breathing was uneven, one hand clutching her stomach while the other gripped the edge of the bed tightly. The pain came in waves, making it impossible to focus on anything but enduring it.“Stay calm, ma’am, we’ll take care of you,” a nurse said, her voice quick but practiced.“My… my baby…” Auri’s voice broke, her eyes beginning to glisten.“Focus on your breathing,” the doctor instructed as he began examining her, his hands moving swiftly yet carefully. “We’re here.”Outside the room, Gia stood pale, her hands still trembling after helping Auri inside. Lucas stood a short distance away, his expression composed—but the look in his eyes betrayed a tension far deeper than he let on.&ldqu

The courtroom that day felt quieter than usual—not because it was empty, but because everyone present seemed to understand—this was the end.The seats were filled just enough, not crowded, yet sufficient to witness something that had been stretched for far too long. On the plaintiff’s side, Ethan sat upright, his jaw set tight, while beside him, his lawyer prepared the final documents. Across from him, the opposing seat remained empty, occupied only by Auri’s legal team. Her absence was no longer a question—her condition was known, and the judge had granted permission.“We will now proceed with the final ruling in this divorce case,” the judge announced, his voice firm but measured. “The defendant is represented by legal counsel.”Auri’s lawyer rose. “That is correct, Your Honor. Our client is unable to attend due to her health condition.”The judge gave a brief nod. “Ve
