EX-HUSBAND’S REGRET(The Wife He Discarded) Chapter 123
“It tells the world we’re scared.”“It tells our competitors we’re weak.”“It tells every person who believed that article…”I paused.“…that maybe there’s some truth to it.”Silence.“They’ll say we ran.”My gaze moved slowly across every face.“And once people think that…”I shook my head.“…it would become the start of the end.”Richard frowned thoughtfully.I continued.“If we keep Fashion Week exactly where it is…”My heartbeat steadied.“…and we solve this before then…”I could almost see it in my head.“…Fashion Week becomes our comeback.”“Our statement.”“Our proof.”I leaned slightly forward.“It won’t just recover the brand.”“It’ll strengthen it.”Another silence settled across the room.Longer this time.Then one of the senior executives finally nodded.“She’s right.”Every head turned toward him.“We’re looking at today’s problem.”He tapped the folder.“She’s looking ahead.”Another executive nodded.“The bigger picture.”John slowly leaned back in his chair.His expres

I pushed myself up from the chair before I had the chance to think too much.Mia quietly followed behind me with her iPad tucked against her chest as we stepped out of my office.The hallway seemed strangely louder today.Not because people were actually talking louder.Because every sound reached me.Every keyboard tapping.Every pair of footsteps.Every voice that immediately lowered the second I walked past.Nobody said anything.Nobody dared.But I could feel it.The curiosity.The uncertainty.The questions sitting behind polite smiles.I kept walking.The elevator arrived almost immediately.Neither of us spoke during the ride down to the executive conference floor.The silence wasn’t awkward.It was heavy.By the time the elevator doors opened, my heartbeat had already started climbing again.The boardroom doors stood open.Everyone was already waiting.I stepped inside.Conversations stopped instantly.Eight board members.My general manager.Our chief financial officer.Legal

If I stayed here, I’d only give myself more time to think.And thinking wasn’t helping.So I got ready.I showered.Picked out a charcoal-tailored pantsuit instead of a dress.Pulled my hair into a sleek low bun.Minimal jewelry.Minimal makeup.When I finally glanced at the clock on my nightstand, it was almost nine.Leo would already be in school.One of my brothers would’ve taken him.I picked up my handbag and headed downstairs.The moment I stepped into the living room, the conversation stopped.Four heads turned toward me.Ford.Pierce.Hayes.Even Camille, standing near the dining area with a coffee mug in her hands.The atmosphere felt… heavy.Hayes stood almost immediately.“Hey…”His eyes searched my face carefully.“Are you okay?”I forced a small smile.“Good morning, y’all.”Nobody answered the greeting.That alone told me enough.I continued walking toward the front door.“Hey.”Ford’s voice stopped me halfway there.“Where are you going?”“Work.”My hand wrapped around

The next morning began with my phone vibrating against the nightstand.Once.Twice.Again.And again.The sound pushed through my sleep until I finally groaned and reached blindly for it.My eyes barely opened.The room was still dim.The curtains remained closed.My body felt heavy from the events of the previous night.For a moment, I considered ignoring the phone completely.Then it vibrated again.And again.And again.With a sigh, I rolled onto my back and picked it up.The brightness hit me immediately.“Jesus.”I squeezed my eyes shut.The screen felt like a spotlight directly into my soul.After a few seconds, I finally opened my eyes again and unlocked the phone.The notification bar nearly gave me a heart attack.Messages.Emails.Instagram notifications.X notifications.TikTok notifications.Missed calls.Dozens of them.My stomach tightened.Something was wrong.Very wrong.Then I saw Mia’s name.Twenty missed calls.My heart dropped instantly.Mia never called so many ti

The cold air helped a little.Not enough to erase what had happened.But enough to stop my breathing from shaking.I stood alone on the deck for several more minutes.The Thames stretched endlessly beneath the dark sky.The yacht moved gently against the water.Far away, city lights shimmered across the river like scattered diamonds.I closed my eyes.Inhale.Exhale.Inhale.Exhale.Slowly, the anger loosened its grip.The hurt remained.The exhaustion remained.But at least I wasn’t standing at the edge anymore threatening to throw myself into a river just to get away from my ex-husband.Eventually, I pushed myself away from the railing.I needed to fix myself.The last thing I wanted was walking back into that ballroom looking like I’d spent the last twenty minutes crying over a man.Because I hadn’t.At least that’s what I intended to tell myself.I found the restroom a few minutes later.The moment I stepped inside the restroom, I headed straight for the mirror.The first thing I

Silence.“We are staying.”Ford frowned.Pierce looked unconvinced.Hayes looked worried.I forced a smile.“I just need a moment alone.”Nobody moved.“Please.”My voice softened.“Go back inside.”Still nobody moved.I laughed quietly.Honestly.My family was impossible.“Go show everyone that the Sterlings aren’t afraid of anything.”I pointed toward the ballroom.“Especially not some crazy woman begging for attention.”That finally earned a reluctant smile from Pierce.Good.At least someone still had a sense of humor.I turned before anybody could argue further, and walked away.The farther I moved from the ballroom, the quieter everything became.The music faded.The voices faded.The lights became softer.Cool air rushed across my skin.The Thames stretched endlessly into the darkness.The water reflected pieces of the city.The yacht moved gently beneath my feet.I reached an empty section of the deck.Nobody was there.Finally.I closed my eyes and breathed slowly.You’re oka

I knocked softly against the guest room door before pushing it open slowly.The room was quiet.Camille sat near the large window beside the bed, her body turned slightly toward the fading evening light outside. She had changed already. Fresh clothes. Her dark hair looked slightly damp near the end

The rest of the day dragged painfully slowly despite how busy I was.Meetings.Phone calls.Fabric approvals.Last-minute adjustments for upcoming designs.Emails that refused to stop coming in.But with all of that, I was still distracted. Every few minutes, my thoughts drifted back to the hospit

By the time I finally got back into my car, my head was already pounding.The hospital smell still clung to me faintly.I tightened my grip slightly against the steering wheel before exhaling slowly.Hayes had insisted I leave.“You have work,” he told me calmly after Camille finally settled down a

Camille immediately looked like she regretted saying too much.The panic was still there in her eyes, but now embarrassment slowly started replacing it too.She looked away quickly, wiping at her tears like she hated the fact that she cried in front of strangers.Like vulnerability itself embarrass
