All Chapters of A Repentant Ex-Husband: Come Back To Me, My Love: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Daniel couldn’t tear his forehead away from the door, as if physical contact with the wood could bring him closer to Astrid. His heart was pounding, fueled by uncertainty and the fear that his words wouldn’t be enough.The silence on the other side stretched out like an abyss, until finally Astrid’s voice—low and heavy with emotion—made itself heard.“I don’t know if I can, Daniel. Not with all this…”He closed his eyes, feeling a twinge in his chest, but he refused to let himself sink. That spark of hope in her words, though faint, was enough to hold on to.“Then let me show you that you can,” he said again in a confident voice. “Give me that chance, Astrid. I’m never going to give up on you.”The echo of his words hung in the air. The only sound was the faint hum of the light on the balcony.Despite her initial resistance, she didn’t turn it off or walk away. Daniel understood that, however small, she was giving him a chance.He climbed the stairs slowly, each step heavy with uncert

Natalia stared at Astrid, unsure whether to laugh or get angry.“My sister?” she repeated slowly, as if the words were in a foreign language. “That’s… impossible.”Astrid leaned forward slightly, her hands clasped in her lap and an expression that was a mix of patience and nervousness.“It’s not that far-fetched,” she replied in a calm voice, though her eyes reflected a spark of defiance. “When I saw how much we look alike, I couldn’t ignore it.” I started investigating, especially since I never knew my mother.The words hit Natalia like a hammer. Her mind was racing, trying to make sense of it all.For a fleeting moment, she considered the possibility that her father had had an affair. After all, “He’s a man, and it’s in his nature to be unfaithful,” her mother used to joke with a hint of resignation. But… her mother? Was Graciela capable of something like that?That was unthinkable. Her mother, who had been her model of integrity and morality—could she have had an illegitimate daugh

Astrid cleared her throat softly, breaking the silence that had settled over the office. Natalia, who had been staring intently at the rim of her coffee cup, looked up with a hint of surprise.“Now I want to talk about Daniel,” Astrid said in a calm but determined voice.Natalia raised her eyebrows, sitting up straight and relaxing her shoulders as if the change of subject were a relief.“All right, what do you want to know?” she asked, leaning forward slightly, as if the change of subject had restored some of her energy.Astrid held her gaze firmly.“I want you to tell me the whole story of your relationship with him from the beginning.”Natalia blinked, confused by the request. Then, a sardonic smile appeared on her lips.“Wouldn’t it be better if you asked Daniel that directly?” she replied, tilting her head slightly.Astrid let out a heavy sigh, crossing her arms in front of her as if trying to shield herself from a truth she already feared.“I already did,” she confessed, her ton

The rain was pouring down, soaking Simon as he stood in front of the company building.His white shirt clung to his skin, and the water ran down his face, mixing with the beads of cold sweat caused by the weight of his thoughts. “Isabella isn’t going to stop. I can’t leave and leave Natalia unprotected,” he told himself over and over. He looked up at the lit windows on the upper floor, where she was probably still working. He sought shelter under the eaves of a small, empty kiosk nearby, while his mind drifted to the past. He remembered that brutal snowstorm and his own coldness when he asked Natalia to leave the house.He had replaced her with Isabella, sending her to a hotel, only to discover later that she hadn’t gone there, but to Daniel’s house. “I kicked her out in the middle of a snowstorm, and now she’s leaving me out in the rain… But this doesn’t even begin to make up for what I did to her,” he thought bitterly, clenching his teeth as regret gnawed at his chest. Hours

Natalia sat down in her car, taking deep breaths to calm the trembling in her hands. In the rearview mirror, she could see Simon standing in the rain, his desolate expression almost moving her. Almost.“No more, Simon,” she whispered to herself, turning the ignition key. The engine roared, and that familiar sound restored a modicum of control to her.She started the car and drove away without looking back. On the highway, as the rain continued to fall, she tried to focus her thoughts on something else.“A hot chocolate and a quiet evening with Nathan. That’s all I need right now.”But her son’s face appeared in her mind, and with it, the inevitable comparison. Nathan was the spitting image of Simon.She shook her head, trying to push those thoughts away, when she felt a sharp jolt in the back of the car.“What the hell?!” she exclaimed, gripping the steering wheel tightly.Another impact jolted her even harder, causing her body to lurch back and forth.Panic seized her. Her heart was
