All Chapters of He Divorced Me… But I Was Never His To Lose(regret & desire): Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

His Heart StoppedThe sound of the alarms exploding through the operating room shattered whatever fragile calm remained inside the underground corridor, because one second surgeons were moving with controlled urgency behind the reinforced observation glass, and the next every person inside the surgical suite seemed to accelerate at once while monitors flashed violently beneath the bright white operating lights.My chest tightened so sharply it physically hurt.Something was wrong.Very wrong.One of the nurses inside the operating room rushed across the surgical floor carrying additional instruments while another adjusted medication lines connected to Damian’s body, and even from outside the glass, I could immediately feel the shift in atmosphere.The tension.The urgency.The fear.Lucien straightened instantly from the wall near the elevators while Alexander’s expression became dangerously still beside me.“What happened?”Nobody answered immediately because the surgeons inside the

Gregory Hart Went PublicThe first sign that the outside world had finally caught up to the nightmare of tonight came less than twenty minutes after Damian’s heartbeat stabilized, because while surgeons continued working carefully around the damaged tissue near his heart beneath the bright operating lights, Lucien suddenly entered the operating room holding a phone in one hand with an expression dark enough to make the panic inside my chest return immediately.Something else had happened.The surgical staff noticed it too.The lead surgeon looked up briefly from Damian’s chest.“This had better be important.”Lucien’s gaze shifted toward me first.Then toward Alexander standing just outside the operating room observation glass.“It is.”The atmosphere inside the surgical suite tightened instantly because Lucien was not someone who panicked easily. If anything, he usually sounded almost emotionless during crises.But now there was visible tension pulling through his face.Alexander step

“Wake Him Up”The words settled through the operating room with enough force to silence everyone inside it completely, because even beneath the constant beeping of medical monitors and the low mechanical hum of surgical equipment surrounding Damian’s body, Alexander Hart’s decision sounded absolute.“We wake Damian up before the vote happens.”One of the cardiac surgeons immediately looked toward him in disbelief.“That would be medically reckless.”Alexander did not even blink.“So is letting Gregory seize the company while my son is unconscious.”The surgeon removed his gloves sharply before stepping away from the operating table.“Mr. Hart nearly died less than an hour ago. His body is still recovering from severe hypothermia, blood loss, cardiac arrest, and emergency extraction near the ventricle. Waking him prematurely could destabilize everything we just repaired.”The warning hung heavily through the operating room.Real.Serious.And terrifying.Because the surgeon was not exa

Gregory’s Biggest MistakeDamian’s smile appeared so faintly that another person might have missed it completely, but inside the operating room, where exhaustion, fear, and adrenaline had already stretched everyone thin, the expression unsettled the atmosphere immediately because it did not belong on the face of a man who had nearly died less than two hours earlier.Lucien lowered the phone slightly after reading Gregory’s latest statement while one of the cardiac nurses adjusted the monitors beside Damian’s bed with visible unease.“Psychiatric authority?” I repeated, trying to process the insanity of it. “He cannot actually do that.”“He can try.”Lucien’s voice remained calm, though the sharpness beneath it made the danger obvious. “Gregory is building a legal narrative that Damian became emotionally unstable after the divorce and the recent board pressure. If he convinces enough shareholders, he can force a temporary medical suspension until an evaluation clears him.”The room fel

Gregory Didn’t Know Damian AnymoreThe room fell into a quieter rhythm after Damian spoke, although the tension never truly disappeared from the operating suite because every monitor surrounding his bed still served as a reminder that his body remained dangerously unstable despite the calm returning gradually to his expression. Nurses continued moving carefully around him beneath the surgical lights while Lucien coordinated updates from Hart Global through his phone near the observation glass, and somewhere deeper inside the underground facility, security teams prepared for the possibility that Gregory’s reach might eventually extend beyond the boardroom.But for the first time all night, Damian no longer looked like a man barely surviving.He looked focused.Which somehow worried me more.“When this is over, I am taking you somewhere Gregory cannot reach.”The words lingered between us while I studied him carefully from beside the elevated hospital bed, because despite the steadiness
