All Chapters of Rebirth of the Betrayed Wife: The Love He Regretted Too Late: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Nyssa"How are you settling in New York?" Damien's familiar voice came through the phone.I tucked the phone between my shoulder and ear as I adjusted the strap of my handbag, my gaze drifting toward the little boy sitting in his high chair at the dining table."We're settling in quite well," I answered honestly. "The house is beautiful, and everyone has been very welcoming. I'm actually getting Benjamin ready. We have to head to the hospital for his next doctor's appointment."There was a brief pause.Then Damien sighed."Nyssa... are you absolutely certain you don't need me over there?"I closed my eyes.Here we go again."I mean it," he continued before I could respond. "Victor and I can be on the next flight if you just say the word. Hell, I'll leave Sydney right now if that's what you want. You shouldn't have to go through this alone."I let out a quiet breath, my lips curving into a small smile. If it wasn't Damien calling to check on Benjamin and me, it was Victor.Every single

Kieran“Wait... are you alright?”The words left my mouth almost automatically the moment the collision happened.The paper cup wobbled violently between the lady's trembling fingers, and hot coffee sloshed over the rim.A soft gasp escaped her lips.The lady stood directly in front of me with her head lowered so much that her face was almost completely hidden. Loose strands of chestnut hair had fallen forward, hiding her face from me.Even the fluorescent hospital lights cast faint shadows over her bowed figure, making it even harder to make out anything beyond the tense line of her shoulders.She looked... rigid. Almost as if she'd turned into stone.Her fingers were wrapped so tightly around the paper coffee cup that her knuckles had gone pale. More coffee spilled over the rim.It streamed down the side of the cup and onto the back of her hand. Her skin reddened instantly, yet she didn't react.She didn't flinch or even seem to notice the burn.I frowned."Hey, lady..." I took a ca

NyssaMy chest rose and fell rapidly as I sat frozen behind the steering wheel, each breath coming faster than the last.I couldn't stop panting.My trembling fingers tightened around the steering wheel while my pulse hammered violently against my ribs.I was safe. I'd made it to the car, but my heart refused to believe it. I squeezed my eyes shut, trying desperately to steady my breathing.God... That had been far too close.Kieran had been right there.I leaned my head back against the driver's seat, forcing myself to inhale deeply before slowly letting the air leave my lungs.Gradually, the violent pounding inside my chest eased, though it refused to disappear completely.The image of Kieran chasing after me replayed vividly inside my mind: the sound of his footsteps, his voice calling after me, the desperate urgency in it, and the way he'd sprinted toward the elevator.The way he'd nearly reached me before the doors closed. If those elevator doors had taken even one second longer.

KieranI stood there, watching as Nyssa disappeared down the hallway with her son.Her words still echoed in my mind. Even after four years, her mocking tone still managed to infuriate me. But I couldn't dismiss her accusation because that day… I had made a choice.But even after everything, how could she forget about our daughter so quickly and have another child with someone else?“Mr. Kieran?”The nurse's concerned voice jolted me back to reality, and I turned toward her.“Bring me all the hospital information forms and records filled out by that woman. I want to see them.”The nurse blinked, clearly confused by my request. “Of course, sir.”She quickly walked over to the computer and began searching through the system. Before she could retrieve anything, my phone began ringing.Pulling it out, I answered the call.“Mr. Black, it's Hazel!”The moment Bonnie's panicked voice came through the phone, my entire body tensed.“I'm on my way.”My feet were already moving even before I end

Nyssa“This is the place, ma’am.”Abel pushed the door open and stepped aside, gesturing for me to enter.I walked through the doorway, and the moment my eyes landed on the space beyond, I couldn't help but smile.“Wow…”It was breathtaking.Everything had been designed with children in mind. The walls were painted in soft, cheerful colors, while colorful illustrations and playful artwork decorated several sections of the clinic. There were little chairs arranged neatly in the waiting area, shelves filled with children's books, and a few carefully placed toys that made the entire place feel warm rather than clinical.Beyond the main reception area were several hallways leading toward different wings of the clinic. There was a consultation wing, treatment rooms, examination areas, and other spaces that would eventually be filled with nurses, doctors, and little patients.But for now, my attention went to my own office. I slowly walked around, taking everything in.My fingers brushed li
