All Chapters of A Repentant Ex-Husband: Come Back To Me, My Love: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

The silence after the crash was almost as deafening as the collision itself. Natalia stood frozen, her eyes fixed on the scene of destruction before her.The cars were wrecked; smoke was billowing from the hood of Simon’s vehicle, and the attacker’s car had been smashed into a pole.“No… it can’t be,” she murmured, her voice trembling as tears began to stream uncontrollably.Her legs wouldn’t respond; her mind screamed for her to run, but fear and disbelief kept her rooted to the spot. She shook her head over and over, as if that simple gesture could undo what had just happened.Finally, with trembling hands, she pulled her cell phone from her pocket and dialed 911.“Please… there’s a serious accident on the main road. We need an ambulance and the police. There was an attempted… murder,” she managed to say between sobs, her voice breaking at the end.Without waiting for a response, she hung up and, staggering, made her way toward Simon’s car. Every step was torture, as if the ground w

The image of the red stain on her dress continued to haunt Natalia, like a shadow she couldn’t shake. She clearly remembered how one of the paramedics had asked her, with obvious concern:“Are you hurt, miss? There’s blood on your dress.”She had looked down, seeing the horrifying crimson streak spreading across the light-colored fabric. For a moment, she couldn’t speak, until she managed to murmur in a broken voice:“No… it’s not my blood.”The memory shook her again when Dr. Ramos began to speak. Natalia stood before him, her stomach churning and a sense of guilt piercing her chest like a dagger.“We had to resuscitate him a couple of times during surgery,” the doctor reported; his tone was serious and professional, yet not devoid of humanity.Natalia’s legs felt like jelly. Her hands trembled, and she had to hold onto the doctor’s arm to keep from collapsing.“Miss, you’re very pale. “Are you okay?” Ramos asked, looking at her with concern.She shook her head quickly, trying to reg

The air in the waiting room was thick with tension, as if every breath carried an invisible weight.Natalia’s eyes widened at Dr. Ramos’s words. A sharp pang pierced her chest, and she felt Keiden’s gaze fixed on her with a strange, almost indecipherable intensity.Was it disappointment? Concern? Natalia swallowed, trying to compose herself.“Has… Simon woken up?” she asked in a whisper, breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled in.Dr. Ramos, with his professional expression, shook his head slowly before answering:“Not yet, but he’s showing signs that he will soon,” he said in a somewhat cheerful tone. “If you’d like, I can let you know when he wakes up, so you can be with him.”Natalia’s heart was pounding, not because of the doctor’s words, but because of what they implied. Before she could refuse, her father’s voice, strong and full of conviction, interrupted her:“You should be there when he wakes up, daughter. It’s the right thing to do.”Her father’s gaze, laden with

Keiden’s footsteps echoed loudly on the fire escape as he tried not to lose sight of Natalia, who was running with a determination that terrified him.The man she was chasing was several steps ahead, moving with almost inhuman speed. Keiden felt a knot in his stomach as he watched Natalia keep running, despite the obvious danger.“Natalia, please, stop!” he shouted with all his might, his voice echoing in the narrow space.She didn’t even turn to look at him, as if the desire to catch the man was stronger than her instinct for self-preservation.“Damn it, Natalia!” he exclaimed, quickening his pace, feeling the adrenaline push him beyond his limits.Suddenly, Mateo’s voice rang out beside him.“Leave this to me! You take care of Natalia.”Keiden turned briefly, surprised that Mateo had caught up to him, but he didn’t have time to respond. Mateo passed him, pulling out his cell phone and calling for backup as he ran after the attacker.The man, noticing he was being followed so closely

Mateo pressed his forehead against the wall of the hospital hallway, trying to process what he had just heard. Keiden had sighed on the other end of the line before dropping the bombshell.“I just found out, Mateo,” he said, his voice breaking. “The news left me in shock… That baby might possibly be mine.”Mateo’s jaw tensed immediately. He straightened his back and brought a hand to the receiver, gripping it as if trying to cling to the calm he lacked.“Possibly?” he asked, his voice thick with disbelief. “What the hell does ‘possibly’ mean? You and Natalia… you’ve already been together.”Keiden sighed on the other end of the line, a sound heavy with frustration and shame.“It’s complicated, Mateo,” he replied, his voice barely a whisper. “I didn’t want to talk about this, but… Natalia and Simon were also intimate shortly before.”Mateo closed his eyes tightly, feeling a mixture of rage and frustration wash over him.“What are you trying to tell me, Keiden?” he finally asked, his ton
