“I canceled the first one because a meeting ran late. I told myself I would make it up the next week. The second one I sent a quick message saying I would be late and then never showed up. I stayed at the office until after midnight. The third one I forgot to even tell her it was off. I let those nights disappear like they were nothing. But they were not nothing to her. They were the one steady thing she had asked for and I took them away without thinking twice. Each time I chose something else. Each time I told myself it was just one night. They added up.

Paul cuts in mercilessly. Paul casually waves all the data stored in the flash drive in his hand. His eyes stare at me sharply with a sneer I have never seen before. “Don’t make this difficult, Kate.

Finding out that my husband suddenly wants to get rid of me feels as if my chest is being torn apart. It hurts... it hurts so much...!

“I was with Nelson, drinking, spilled some drink on my clothes and he offered me his Jacket after I got cleaned up” Shit! I shouldn't have said that. I regret it. Why will I tell my husband I came home just because I hung out with my ex. The horrific mask on his face but he wasn't mad instead he brushes it off. “Come on Alexander, it's just a hangout nothing more” I try to convince him it's nothing. “I stayed here waiting for you but…” he paused, his voice breaking and that even makes him seem vulnerable to me. Men aren't supposed to be vulnerable. They are supposed to be all tough and strong but my husband seems different from the rest of the real men I know.

In the quietude of the moment, his voice, tinged with regret and resignation, broke the silence. "I succeeded, Abhi," Rudra spoke with a depth that echoed the depths of his remorse. "But my success only served to endanger the safety of my family." His words hung in the air, carrying the weight of unspoken regrets and the bitter taste of unintended consequences. In the hushed confines of their shared space, Rudra's words hung heavy, their weight sinking deep into the hearts of Abhi and Sashi. As Rudra, with a voice laden with regret and resignation, revealed the bitter truth of his past actions, a palpable silence settled over the room.

But none of it seemed to matter now. His fingers brushed over a photograph of him and Freya, taken on her first day working at Bayside Bistro, smiling in the kind of blissful harmony he had believed would never be shattered. A strong urge welled up within him; the urge to throw the picture frame across the room, to destroy the memories that taunted him. But something inside him stopped him. Instead, he set the photo back down, his hand trembling slightly. His chest felt tight, as if it were impossible to breathe, and he couldn’t shake the overwhelming sense of futility that clung to him. He had his position back, yes, but at what cost?

I smiled and walked to the sofa in his living room to lie on it. I took out my phone and sent Chris a message. "Remember to say you love me earlier next time." After sending the message, I locked my phone and waved my hand at James, Nova, and Brenda. "Goodbye, my ex-husband. I hope that you'll dream of me every night from today onwards." With that, I closed my eyes and my world became dark.

His life—once perfectly structured and enviable—suddenly felt meaningless. The mansion that once symbolized prestige now felt like a prison. Every corner echoed with ghosts—his mother’s absence, his father’s deceit, and Zara’s broken trust. For the first time in years, Regan Kareem felt something he never thought he would—regret. He picked up his phone again, opened Zara’s chat, and typed: “I’ll fix this. Somehow.” But again, his thumb hovered over the send button, and he sighed. He locked the phone and placed it face-down on the table. The screen went dark—just like the space growing inside him.

“My mom’s crying nonstop. My friends won’t answer my calls. People are digging up everything—my debts, my jobs, even old photos from school. They’re calling me a gold digger, a scammer, worse.” I forced my voice steady. “You’ll survive it.” His laugh was harsh. “That’s easy for you to say. You’ve lived in this storm your whole life. Me? I’m drowning.” The words struck deeper than I wanted to admit. I moved around the desk, standing close enough to see the exhaustion in his face. “Do you regret it?” He blinked. “What?” “This marriage.” My voice was low, steady. “Do you regret it?” His eyes searched mine. “I didn’t choose it.”

It was like he was searching for the old weakness he used to see in me. However, he was destined to be disappointed. I was weak back then because I loved him. Now that I did not, I had grown strong in resolve. I put on a smile, stepped aside, and let him in. After all, this was the place my son and I were planning to settle down in, and I did not want anyone to know my ex-husband was a crazy person.
