The Goodbye he regretted CHAPTER 22
Damien guided Aurora straight into his private office under the watchful gaze of his entire corporate staff. The moment the heavy doors clicked shut, Aurora burst into tears, throwing her arms around his waist and clinging to him tightly."Damien, thank goodness you came down for me," she sobbed, her voice trembling. "I was absolutely terrified out there..."Damien’s expression darkened. Without a word, he placed his hands firmly on her shoulders and unclasped her grip, stepping back to distance himself. Aurora blinked, looking up at him in utter confusion. "Damien?""Why did you do it?" Damien asked, his voice dripping with an icy, intimidating authority."Do what?" she faltered."Why did you leak our relationship status to the Daily News?" he demanded flatly.Aurora secretly let out a quiet breath of relief before immediately wrapping her arms around him again. "Because I love you, and I can't wait to be your wife. Don't you want to marry me too?""I do, but forcing it into t

"Aurora?" Damien's tone smoothed out slightly as he answered his phone."Damien! Please, you have to help me!" Aurora cried desperately. "I'm trapped in your office lobby, and a massive crowd of reporters has completely surrounded me! I don't know what to do, I'm so scared!""Stay where you are, I’m coming down right now," Damien said without a second thought, grabbing his tailored suit jacket and heading for the door."Mr. Vance! You can't go down there yourself!" Lucas hurried forward to block his path. "Just let me send the security team down to escort Ms. Moon upstairs. If you show your face in the lobby right now, the press will absolutely swallow you alive!"Damien's expression remained dark and stormy. Completely ignoring the warning, he swept past Lucas and out into the hallway.Downstairs, the atmosphere was total pandemonium."Ms. Moon! Has a date been finalized for your wedding with Mr. Vance?" a reporter yelled, shoving a microphone forward."The rumors say you and Mr. Van
The Goodbye he regretted CHAPTER 20
Maureen nodded slightly toward her secretary, signaling him to open the office door."Ms. Vance!"Luther Adams, the hotel's vice president, pushed his way inside before Steven could stop him. He was the executive responsible for the major operational oversights discovered the day before, and he looked completely unraveled.Maureen watched him approach her desk with a cold, unbothered expression. "Mr. Adams, your resignation has already been processed. There is no reason for you to be here. I suggest you look for a job elsewhere.""You can't just throw me out!" Luther shouted, wiping sweat from his forehead as panic set in. "I’ve dedicated twenty years to this hotel, ruining my health from overwork! Your father wouldn't treat a loyal employee this way! How can you dismiss me without a second thought?"Maureen leaned back, a mocking smile on her lips. "I looked over the medical records of our upper management. Your 'exhaustion' boils down to a fatty liver and some gallbladder pol
The Goodbye he regretted CHAPTER 19
Maureen swept her hair into a messy bun, pinning it in place with a diamond clip before taking center stage in front of Michael. Dressed in a sky-blue outfit, she began to sing "Speechless" by Michael Jackson. Her performance was captivating, her features alive with expression.As the final note faded, Michael broke into warm applause. "Brilliant. Celeste certainly taught you well. In the old days, a performance like that would have easily won over royalty.""Who wants to be a princess anyway?" Maureen replied, snapping her fingers with a confident grin. "If I have a choice, I’m going to be the ruling queen."Michael gave a helpless laugh. "Well, our stepmother definitely treat you like one."Maureen looked down as she took a seat next to her oldest brother, feeling a brief wave of sympathy for the woman."She missed you terribly over the last three years, Maureen," Michael said gently, squeezing her shoulder. "She cares about you deeply and ask me about you all the time. I know you
The Goodbye he regretted CHAPTER 18
Hell no!" Ethan shouted as Michael hit the speakerphone.“I’m looking for my wife,” Damien’s voice came through, dripping with possessive arrogance.Ethan cussed and stepped forward, but Maureen instantly slammed his head down onto the table to silence him.“Mr. Vance, Selene is no longer your wife. You’re divorced now,” Michael reminded him smoothly, intentionally using her alias to protect her true identity.“She knows she’s still my wife,” Damien shot back icily.Maureen snatched the phone, turning off the speaker as she ducked into an empty room. “Damien, why were you chasing me so aggressively on the highway just now? Cut to the chase.”“Why did you change your phone number? Give me your new one so Grandma can contact you,” Damien commanded righteously.Maureen smiled mockingly. “You can just call Mr. Ashford if you need to reach me.”Damien ground his teeth. “Selene, is this your way of getting revenge? Are you so excited to move in with Michael that you can’t even wait
The Goodbye he regretted CHAPTER 17
Maureen held the steering wheel with one hand, speeding down the open road. She wasn't remotely afraid of Damien investigating her background. She just couldn't comprehend why a man who had completely ignored her for three whole years suddenly became so intensely curious about her only after their divorce. Damien was a total jerk—he had only looked at her with disgust when she actually cared about him, but the moment she treated him coldly, he wouldn't stop pestering her.Glancing at the rearview mirror, Maureen frowned slightly. Damien's Lamborghini was keeping pace, not far behind her."Hah! He thinks he can catch up to me? Dream on!" Maureen smirked and floored the gas pedal. The Bugatti shot forward like a bolt of lightning, vanishing in the blink of an eye."Quick, follow her closely!" Damien urged from the passenger seat of the pursuit car, barking orders at Ian. Lucas had never driven so fast in his life; his heart felt like it was about to leap straight out of his chest. S

The silence that followed Aurora's question was so thick that even the servants seemed afraid to move.Selene stood completely still, fingers tightening around the strap of her handbag.Aurora"s smile slowly faltered as she looked around and read the room. "Oh no, I didn't mean it like that," she s
The Goodbye he regretted Chapter 2
"Welcome home, Aurora."The words rang in Selene's ears as she stood frozen in the hallway.Aurora. She knew that name. She'd spent three years trying not to think about it, and here it was, hanging in the air like it had never left. Slowly, she tightened her grip on her handbag. The tiny baby shoe

"Mrs. Vance, are you sure your husband didn't come with you today?"Selene looked up from across the doctor's desk and offered a small smile. "I came straight from the office. Damien is busy."The doctor shook his head with a chuckle as he flipped through her file. "Busy or not, I have a feeling he

Selene's eyes stayed fixed on the document lying on the desk.DIVORCE AGREEMENT.She stared at it for several seconds, her mind refusing to catch up with what she was seeing. Her ears were ringing. This had to be a mistake.Slowly, she looked up at Damien.He looked completely calm, like he was wai
