Caroline's POV

"You're still my wife," Peter repeated as he held my gaze without blinking. His expression was as cold and unreadable as ever, yet there was an unfamiliar intensity in his eyes that made my heart skip against my will. "I won't allow anything to happen to you."

For several long seconds, neither of us spoke.

The inside of the car fell completely silent.

His hand was still wrapped around my wrist, firm enough to stop me from leaving but no longer painful. I looked into his eyes, sea

  • My Ex Husband's Greatest Regret    Chapter 40

    Margaret Harrington's POVThe same night.I lay in my large bed, propped up against several pillows. My chest felt tight, and a harsh cough tore through me again. The nurse beside me quickly handed me a glass of water and adjusted the oxygen tube near my nose. I took small sips, trying to steady my breathing. The illness had been getting worse these past weeks, spreading faster than the doctors had expected.The door opened. Tyrone walked in quickly, his face serious. He rushed to my bedside, pulling a chair closer and sitting down. His hand rested gently on the edge of the bed near mine.“Boss....Margaret,” he said, voice low with concern. “How are you feeling tonight?”I managed a weak smile before another cough hit. The nurse stepped back a little to give us space. “I’ve had better nights,” I replied once I could speak again. “But I’m still here.”Tyrone nodded. He looked at me for a moment, then said, “I will be moving to Caroline’s household tomorrow morning. I’ve already made

    Caroline's POVWe walked into the house. Cerene went straight to the master bedroom area. She stopped when she saw her things moved to the living room. Her dresses, bags, and other items were neatly placed on the couch and side tables.I held in my laugh. I kept my face straight and watched her reaction.Cerene’s eyes widened. She turned to Peter, her lip starting to tremble. “Peter… my things. They are not in the bedroom anymore. Why are they out here?” Her voice got higher. She sat down on the couch near her belongings and started crying softly. “I feel so unwanted. After everything today… this is too much.”Peter looked at the pile of things, then at me. His face changed. “Caro,” he said loudly, voice sharp. “What is this? You are still doing this childish game? You clearly know Cerene is delicate and needs bigger space!”I did not answer right away. Instead, I smirked a little. *How foolish my husband can be, like I even care.I yanked my hand off his arm, then I walked up the s

    Caroline's POV“Well, it's getting late...We better go home hubby....Cerene I hope you are feeling much better now...It must be exhausting and boring for you...you know...watching my husband and I do nothing but eat and kiss ...." I spoke softly, placing a hand on Peter's lap.“Sis....I...I ..I am fine." Cerene said softly. But her eyes said otherwise. I was even wondering how Peter never noticed her fake sympathetic look. Men....I fought the urge to roll my eyes.“Caro... Behave..." Peter whispered. But I ignored him.“Relax I am just being a wife....Isn't that what you want?“ I lowered my voice just so he could hear. I deliberately pinched his skin, I could see his eyes react to it. We look eyes for a second.But I pull my hand back.When I glance at Tyrone's table, he was still there. Paying for his bill, but I could tell his attention was on me.And when Peter forced a smile, held my chin and pulled my face back to him... He spoke again. “Eyes on me baby ...Let's go.“We stood

  • My Ex Husband's Greatest Regret    Chapter 36

    Caroline's POVTyrone suddenly pulled my chair closer to his with one smooth motion, the legs scraping softly against the floor. He locked eyes with me, that mischievous smirk playing on his lips as he leaned in just enough for his presence to fill the space between us. His voice came out low and rasped, deep enough to send a shiver down my spine. “Are you aware your husband is being cosy with your twin?”I tried to ignore the way my gaze kept drifting to the way his shirt stretched over his popping abs and the sexy tattoos visible at his collar. My heart beat faster despite myself. "Too bad it still ached for that asshole Peter.““It’s none of your business,” I shot back, leaning backwards in my seat to create some distance. My voice came out sharper than I intended, but I held his gaze.He didn’t back off. Instead, his smirk deepened. “I want to help you. Make him jealous. And besides… Margaret Harrington sent me. I’m here for your protection.”The realization hit me slowly. Tyro

  • My Ex Husband's Greatest Regret    Chapter 35

    Cerene's POV“Peter… please, dont take me to the hospital,” I whispered, my voice barely above a breath as he carried me through the cool evening air on the restaurant terrace. My head rested heavily against his chest, feeling the steady thump of his heartbeat. I let my body go completely limp in his arms, fingers clutching weakly at his shirt. The night breeze brushed over us, but all I could focus on was the warmth of his body and the familiar scent of his cologne.He stopped near a quiet corner of the terrace, lowering me gently onto a wooden bench. His hands lingered on my shoulders for a moment longer than necessary, brows furrowed with genuine worry. “We’re going right now. You look too pale, Cerene. This isn’t something we should ignore.”I caught his hand before he could pull away, wrapping my fingers around his with trembling delicacy. My thumb stroked the inside of his wrist slowly, right over that sensitive spot I knew so well ...the one that always made his pulse jump.
