All Chapters of Ex-Husband's Regret: I'm sorry I loved You too late: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ONEThe hospital cafeteria was unusually quiet that afternoon.Lunch hour had almost ended, leaving only a handful of doctors and nurses scattered across the room, eating hurried meals before returning to work. Conversations drifted lazily through the air, blending with the occasional clatter of cutlery against ceramic plates and the hum of the vending machine in the corner.Katelyn sat near the window, absently stirring the soup she had barely touched.She wasn't particularly hungry and she had barely touched her food, languidly scrolling through videos after videos on her phone. Residency had taught her that hunger often arrived hours after it should have, usually when she was too busy to satisfy it.Across from her, another resident doctor scrolled through her phone while complaining about paperwork, but Katelyn wasn't paying attention.Her thoughts had wandered somewhere else entirely. Avery and the upcoming school event. The little girl had spoken of alm

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THREE "Mommy…"Avery tugged lightly on the sleeve of Katelyn's blouse, her tiny brows pinched together in confusion."...why did everybody get quiet?"Katelyn blinked, pulled out of the strange silence that had settled around her after the teacher's innocent mistake. She looked down at her daughter and immediately forced a smile onto her face, unwilling to let the child think she had done anything wrong.Katelyn opened her mouth before realizing she had absolutely no answer that a seven-year-old would understand.Fortunately, Kevin stepped in.He crouched until he was eye level with Avery and smiled.“Because your teacher is really cool, she left us all speechless.” Avery giggled. "She really is."The awkwardness dissolved almost instantly.Children had a remarkable ability to pull adults back into the present before they could drown in thoughts they had no business revisiting.The three of them continued walking toward the auditorium together while the cour

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE Damon forgot how to breathe.The noise inside the auditorium faded until it became nothing more than a distant murmur somewhere beyond his reach, as though the entire room had been submerged beneath water and he alone remained stranded on the surface.He stood motionless at the foot of the stage, his gaze fixed on the woman several yards away. Katelyn. The name echoed silently inside his head. Eight years was a long time. Long enough for memories to blur and faces to fade. Long enough for grief to harden into something quieter and easier to carry. Or so he had convinced himself. Yet one look at her had destroyed every lie he had spent years telling himself.She was here. Alive. Real. Not another stranger he had mistaken for her in an airport terminal or across a busy street. Not another cruel trick his exhausted mind played whenever loneliness caught him off guard.She was standing right there. His heartbeat, usually steady enough to withstand billion-do

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENThe conference room was silent.Twelve executives sat around the long mahogany table, every pair of eyes fixed expectantly on the man at its head. The presentation slides had long since changed to the financial projections for the third quarter, yet Damon Winchester remained completely still, one hand resting against his chin while his attention drifted somewhere far beyond the walls of the room.The silence stretched long enough to become uncomfortable. Finally, his assistant cleared his throat."Mr. Winchester?"Damon blinked once before slowly lifting his head.The projector continued illuminating the screen behind him while the nervous young executive standing beside it shifted awkwardly from one foot to the other."I'm sorry," Damon said calmly. "Continue."The man nodded hurriedly and resumed his presentation, clicking to the next slide while explaining projected expansion plans for the company's overseas branches.Normally, Damon would have interr

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINEThe morning had barely begun when Damon Winchester walked into his office.The city outside was only just waking up, the early sunlight filtering through the floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the endless skyline, yet his entire executive floor was already bustling with activity.Secretaries moved from one office to another carrying folders, assistants answered calls that never seemed to stop ringing, and somewhere down the hall the finance department was already discussing quarterly projections.Damon barely noticed any of it.His mind had been elsewhere ever since the school event.He had buried himself in work for eight years, believing there was no amount of success that could fill the emptiness left behind by betrayal, and over time he had become so accustomed to that emptiness that he no longer questioned it.Until two days ago. L Seeing Katelyn again had disturbed something he thought had died long ago.He loosened his tie as he stepped into
