Chapter 201 For love that refused to die

The sirens howled through the night, splitting the heavy silence that followed the chaos. Red and blue lights flickered across Ophelia’s pale face as she stood beside the stretcher, her hands trembling though she forced them to remain at her sides. Alexander’s body lay motionless as paramedics lifted him into the ambulance — his shirt blackened, the edge of his jaw smeared with soot.Ophelia had been frozen, staring at Alexander’s unconscious face as though she could still see the arrogance that once ruined her life. But there was none of it left. Only a strange, fragile stillness that unnerved her more than his cruelty ever had.The paramedic glanced at her, about to speak, but the look in her eyes silenced him.She sat across from Alexander, gripping the metal bench so hard her knuckles turned white. His chest rose and fell in uneven, shallow breaths. She hated that she noticed — hated that her pulse raced with every weak breath he took.Don’t die, her mind whispered, and she despise

Chapter 202 Deceitful tears

The hospital corridor was crowded and buzzing with tension. Nurses rushed past, monitors beeped somewhere down the hall, and the heavy air reeked of antiseptic and fear. The Harvey family had gathered—Philip pacing restlessly, Sandra sitting with her face buried in her hands, Catherine sobbing against Mason’s shoulder. Everyone was waiting for news about Marcus and Alexander.Then the elevator doors opened.Wren stepped out, pale and trembling, Hannah right behind her. Wren’s eyes darted toward the waiting area, scanning for Alexander. The moment Ophelia saw her, something inside her snapped—an invisible dam shattering all at once.Her chair screeched back violently as she stood. Her entire body shook, but her expression was cold enough to freeze the air.“Ophelia—” Philip began, but before he could finish, Ophelia strode forward and slapped Wren across the face—a sound so sharp that the entire corridor fell silent.The crack echoed through the hospital hallway.Wren’s head jerked to t

Chapter 203 Sweetest proof

Hannah stood beside Wren, her arm protectively looped through her sister’s as though shielding her from the accusations still lingering in the air. Her eyes flicked toward Ophelia every few seconds, filled with contempt.“I see,” Hannah finally said, her voice dripping with scorn, “that your proof takes longer to appear than your temper, Ophelia. Maybe you thought screaming in public would make your lies true.”Ophelia didn’t respond. Her gaze was fixed on the polished floor, her expression unreadable. Only the slight twitch in her fingers betrayed her restraint.Wren stood beside Hannah, her head bowed demurely, eyes shining with tears — but it was all performance. Ophelia could see it clearly now, the way her lips trembled a second too late, the way her shoulders shook just enough to invite pity.An hour crawled by. Family members whispered uneasily, doctors moved past them with updates about Alexander’s condition, and still, Ophelia said nothing. The silence began to mock Hannah mor

Chapter 204 I hope someday you'll forgive me

People began to whisper that it was finally over. The chaos, the fire, the horror — all wrapped up with one girl’s arrest. The officers prepared to leave, guiding the trembling Wren away, her cries fading into the distance. Everyone seemed to breathe a little easier.But Ophelia didn’t.She stood a few feet away from the chaos, her gaze not on the police, not on Wren’s retreating figure — but on someone else entirely.Ruby.The young woman stood with her hands neatly clasped in front of her, her expression unreadable, almost too calm. Her lipstick was still perfect, her hair slightly mussed from the night’s panic, but her eyes — her eyes were far too still.Ophelia took a slow breath, her chest heavy. She could almost hear her own pulse drumming in her ears. Everyone thought it was over. But she knew better. There was still one more lie to be peeled open.When the officers turned to leave with Wren, a few of them lingered near the entrance. One of the waiters — the younger one, trembli

Chapter 205 Silent goodbyes

After the chaos finally subsided, the murmurs of departing guests and distant echoes of hurried footsteps faded into the cold, sterile corridors of the hospital. The once bustling waiting room now felt hollow, haunted by the aftermath of the night’s events.Catherine guided the family’s grandmother to a small, private lounge. The old woman’s frail frame trembled with exhaustion, and Catherine kept a hand steadying her as she settled her into a soft chair, draping a warm blanket over her shoulders.“Rest now, mom,” Catherine murmured gently. The grandmother’s lips quivered, but she only nodded, her eyes misty.With the grandmother resting, Catherine slipped away, leaving Marcus and Ophelia alone. The quiet that followed was heavy, oppressive — not the silence of peace, but the silence that comes after unbearable tension.Marcus sank into the seat beside Ophelia, who sat rigidly, her hands clasped so tightly they had turned white. He studied her, searching her eyes, sensing a storm she h

Chapter 206 Two broken hearts need to meet again

The first thing Alexander felt was cold. Not the kind of cold that came from the air-conditioning humming above, but a hollow, sterile kind that seeped into his bones. He blinked against the harsh white light above him, his eyelids heavy, lashes sticky. The ceiling blurred into focus — white, sterile, hospital white. The distant hum of machines was steady, rhythmic. Somewhere nearby, something beeped — faint, mechanical, alive.His throat burned, his chest ached. Every breath dragged fire through his ribs. He turned his head slightly, wincing as pain lanced through his body. For a fleeting moment, he didn’t remember — didn’t know how he ended up here, why his body felt like it had been torn apart. Then, like shards of glass, memories came back in fragments.He remembered her face above him, her trembling hands trying to stop the bleeding, her voice breaking as she called his name over and over again.And for the first time in what felt like eternity, Alexander smiled — faintly, painful

Chapter 207 I forgive you

The car hadn’t even stopped when Alexander threw the door open and stumbled out. His whole body screamed in pain — his burned skin pulling against the tight bandages, the raw ache beneath them pulsing with every breath — but he didn’t care. Not now. Not when his chest was bursting with terror that he was too late again.“Alexander!” Robert shouted, running after him as he sprinted across the gravel, but Alexander didn’t stop. His heart was pounding too loud for him to hear anything else. The world around him blurred — the air thick, heavy, suffocating — and all he could see in his mind was the memory of losing her once before.He had felt this same panic once. In his past life — that cursed, empty life where he had lost her and destroyed himself. He remembered the moment he found her gone, the silence that had followed, and the blood on his hands when he finally pulled the trigger on himself.He couldn’t live through that again. He wouldn’t.When he reached the field, his chest burned

Chapter 208 The future could wait

The road back home was silent. The engine’s hum was soft, steady, and the only sound between them. Alexander’s head rested against Ophelia’s shoulder, his breath warm against her neck. His skin smelled faintly of antiseptic and smoke. The bandages wrapped around his arms peeked from his sleeve, and she could feel the slight tremor of pain in his body even as he tried to stay still.He had fallen asleep — or maybe he was just too exhausted to stay awake any longer. Either way, he was calm now, his expression almost boyish. The same man who had once made her bleed with his words now looked fragile. Human.She turned her gaze toward the window. The scenery passed in blurred strokes — trees, buildings, the gray sky — but she barely saw any of it. Her mind was a storm of thoughts.She had done everything possible to bury the past. She had promised herself she would never look back. Yet here he was, sleeping on her shoulder as though the universe was mocking her promises.Her fingers twitche

Chapter 209 One step at a time

In the days that followed, life finally began to feel… normal.Or at least, something close to it.Alexander made up for every lost moment as though time itself was running out. From the instant he woke until the moment he fell asleep, he was there — quietly, persistently, making amends. He’d follow Ophelia around the house with the stubborn gentleness of a man who refused to let her lift a finger.He’d bring her breakfast, sometimes burnt toast or overly sweet coffee, and she’d laugh softly despite herself. He’d wait for her outside her study just to walk her down to dinner, or appear behind her in the garden with a blanket when the wind grew cold.And slowly, piece by piece, the walls between them began to crumble.He healed, too. The burns on his skin faded to faint pink scars, the bandages replaced by soft cotton shirts that smelled of her. Ophelia helped him recover with a care that reminded her of the woman she used to be — the one who loved him without fear. She told herself it

Chapter 210 For forever

Six months later -The plane ride felt almost unreal.Ophelia had no idea where Alexander was taking her; he’d only told her to pack light and trust him. For the first time in months, she’d done just that. The moment they stepped out of the airport, the salty breeze hit her face and she looked around, eyes wide. The turquoise sea stretched endlessly, and the horizon shimmered like melted silver under the sun.She turned to him. “Where are we going?”He smiled — that soft, boyish smile that once could melt her anger no matter how hard she tried to hold onto it. “A date.”She blinked. “A what?”He chuckled, brushing a loose strand of her hair behind her ear. “A date, Mrs. Soon-to-be-Mine-Again.”“Don’t call me that,” she muttered, hiding her smile as he opened the car door for her. “You’re too much sometimes.”“That’s good. Because I plan to be too much for the rest of your life,” he said, winking.The drive along the coastal road was peaceful. The sun was setting, painting the sky with
