Semua Bab THE GENIUS HE LET GO: Ex-husband’s Regret: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Chapter Thirty-One“You cannot leave!” Ethan growled at Aurora, throwing the papers at her face, “I will never sign the divorce papers!”Celeste looked distressed.Why was Ethan acting this way? It’s not like he had any feelings for Aurora, right? Why then won’t he let her leave?“If this bitch stays on here, my position as Mrs Langford would never be really established!” She thought to herself in dismay, “No! That cannot happen at all! Aurora must leave!”Aurora did not react when Ethan threw the papers at her. She merely dug her hands in her coat pockets, and eyed Ethan with proud disdain, “It doesn’t matter if you sign the papers now or not, we’d be legally divorced when the waiting period is over after a month.” She declared, “I’m still leaving you.”Ethan let out a bitter laugh, raking his hand through his hair in frustration once more at Aurora’s calm demeanor.It was as though she was an ice wall that he could not get through and he just wanted to punch through the ice once.

Chapter Thirty-ThreeAurora absolutely loved the steak.It was delicious and melted in her mouth, the way she liked it. They did the dishes together, and retired to the balcony, with cups of tea.The Balcony was small and private, with a single lounge, a few potted plants and a view that was to die for.Caspian draped a shawl over her shoulders, and she smiled up at him gratefully, “Thank you.” She uttered, “Thanks for the meal as well.”“You’re welcome.”“I didn’t know you could cook,” she continued, cradling her cup of tea between her plans, while looking up at him, “And you’re so good at it too! Wow!”Caspian shrugged, “Yeah, it’s that good because it’s the only meal I can make well. Any other thing…not so much. I love meat, so I gave it my all.”Aurora laughed out loud this time, and Caspian gave himself another mental well done pat.He was definitely not going to be leaving her in a depressing mood all night.While Aurora may act indifferent about everything that had happened in

Chapter Thirty-FiveThe next morning, Aurora resumed work at the institute. Caspian had picked her up at her apartment that morning, and soon received very puzzling instructions.“Now Aurora, are you sure you want to just work in the lab?” He asked in surprise, “You’re the President. Why not just take over operations now that you’re back?”“Then, what would you do?” Aurora replied, “I did not come back to sit behind a desk all day, Caspian. I want to know what it feels like to be in a lab once more. Humor me, please.”“No.”“Oh come on.” She rolled her eyes heavenward, making Caspian grin, “You’re better at it than I am anyway. Or…” she looked over at him, her brows furrowed slightly with worry, “…do you need to leave? Like right now?”While being a medical researcher with a name for himself, Caspian Vaughn was also the sole heir of the Vaughn Empire; one out of the top three elite conglomerates in the country.For years, he’d managed the research institute as well as his empire, and

Chapter Thirty-Seven“What? Where did you say she was working?”Ethan was standing in front of the floor to ceiling windows in his high end office, looking down at the hustle and bustle of Crestmont city below.Behind him stood his assistant, Carter, who was making a report. At the sound of that question, Carter stopped in his tracks and looked up in puzzlement.“Sir?”Ethan had turned swiftly away from the window, “Where did you say you found Aurora working at?”Carter returned back to his IPad, a furrow between his brows, “It’s very strange sir,” he uttered, "She is working at the Seraphim Medical Research Institute.”Ethan rubbed the space between his eyes, scoffing in disbelief, “Carter, you seemed to have lost your touch,” he said through gritte teeth, glaring at the innocent assistant, “I asked you to get me information on Aurora Hale, not some other woman, and you’re bringing me this nonsense. Why would Aurora Hale be working at all? Not just working but at Seraphim Medical Res

Chapter Thirty-EightRiley’s face lit up at once, “Really?” She uttered excitedly, “You’re going to call mommy?!”Ethan hesitated, “Uhhh…baby, why don’t you call her yourself?” He uttered, “So you can hear her wish you a happy birthday?”The child shook her head, her expression sad, “I tried calling mommy earlier,” she said, her bottom lip wobbling, “But I could not reach her!”“What?” Ethan asked, his brows furrowing in a slight frown. His heart started slamming against his ribs as he suddenly thought of something.Aurora would not dare to block her child now, would she?“How then are we supposed to reach her?! What the hell is her problem?!”Riley reached into her bag and brought out her cellphone, handing it to her father, “See? I can’t reach mommy.”As she spoke, she tried to call Aurora’s number, but then the automated message came on saying it was unreachable.Ethan collected the phone from the child and went straight to her messenger chat, his jaw locked with fury.This was the
