After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 348 Fragile Hope Is Still Hope
(Margaret)When I heard the car pull up, I immediately set down my tea and made my way to the front door. Adeline was here. She’d been through so much recently, far more than any one person should endure. And now...now this horrible, unspeakable event with Lydia. I could hardly fathom it myself, but seeing Adeline, weak from her treatment, step out of the car with those tired eyes, somehow made it all sink in.As she took a few steps, I went forward and reached out to help her. She gave me a weary smile, though I could see that even that simple gesture seemed to drain her. “Thank you, Margaret,” she said softly, her voice laced with a weight I couldn’t even begin to understand. She clutched her handbag tightly, as though holding onto that one small object was enough to keep her standing.“Oh, Adeline,” I murmured, sliding my arm around her shoulders, “Come inside, please. You need to sit down. It’s chilly out here, and you’ve been through too much already.”She nodded, looking off t

(Thomas)The drive to the kids’ preschool felt surreal, like I was watching myself from a distance. The day had already been a whirlwind of fear, frustration, and that gnawing helplessness that I wasn’t used to. My fingers tightened around the steering wheel, and I swallowed hard. Today was the longest I’d ever gone without hearing Lydia’s voice in a long while, and I could feel the edges of my control starting to slip.But I couldn’t afford to let that happen now. Not with Mabel and Miles waiting for me. My heart thudded heavily in my chest as I pulled up to the preschool, trying to muster up a smile, trying to look like the father they deserved, even if my insides were in chaos.The school doors opened, and there they were, Mabel and Miles, bounding down the steps hand-in-hand, their faces lighting up when they saw me. I could see Mabel’s ponytail bobbing with every hop and Miles trying his best to keep up with her, his grin as bright as the sun. My heart clenched, and I forced my

(Lydia)The darkness settled around me, thick and unyielding. It pressed against me as I fought to keep my senses steady. Every nerve in my body was on high alert, the raw fear and adrenaline mingling together as I tried to gather my bearings. My head pounded with a dull ache, the aftereffects of chloroform that they had used to faint me had left me dazed, the details blurry. But as my breathing slowed, reality snapped into focus, chillingly clear. I was on the floor, bound tightly at my wrists and ankles, a gag digging uncomfortably into the corners of my mouth.I lay there for a few seconds, forcing my mind to settle, trying to piece together the fragments of what I remembered. Nathan’s face flashed through my memory, his twisted grin and hateful words cutting through the fog. He’d said he wanted revenge, he wanted us to suffer. It made me sick to think about him standing over me, taking pleasure in my helplessness.But I wasn’t helpless. Not completely. I refused to be.Taking a

(Thomas)The weight of regret settled heavily on my chest as I glanced back at the front door, my kids’ laughter echoing in my ears. Miles and Mabel were inside, blissfully unaware of the storm brewing outside, of the chaos that had engulfed our lives. I hated leaving them, but I knew I had to focus on finding Lydia. It was the only way to keep them safe.As I drove to George’s office, the world outside the car blurred by, my thoughts racing a mile a minute. Lydia was missing, and the idea of her in danger gnawed at me, twisting my stomach into knots. I couldn’t shake the image of her terrified face from my mind. Every moment wasted felt like another step further away from bringing her home.When I pulled into the parking lot, I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what lay ahead. George, Jack, and Ruby would be waiting for me, and we needed to act quickly. Time was not on our side.I walked into George’s office, my heart racing as I took in the grim expressions on their faces. Rub

(Margaret)Sitting on the edge of the sofa, I stared at the walls of the living room, my mind a swirl of thoughts and worries. The sun streamed through the windows, casting warm rays across the room, but there was an unsettling chill that wrapped around me like a heavy blanket. I could hear the faint sounds of Mabel and Miles playing in the playroom down the hall, their laughter a bittersweet reminder of the joy that was so painfully absent from our lives right now.I had always prided myself on being strong, but with Lydia missing, everything felt different. I had to put on a brave face for the kids, but it was becoming increasingly difficult to mask my anxiety. Thomas had assured me he’d explained Lydia’s absence to them, but I could tell they sensed something was off. Children have a way of picking up on emotions that adults often overlook. As I listened to them giggle and chatter, the guilt washed over me again. I wanted to protect them from this harsh reality, but how could I d
Last Updated : 2024-10-29After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 353 True Meaning Of Consequences
(Lydia)I don’t know how long I’ve been here. Time feels like a distorted concept in this dark room, blending together into an endless stretch of fear and uncertainty. My hands ache as I continue to work on the restraints binding me. I can’t tell if it’s been minutes or hours since I started, but all I know is that I won’t stop. I’ve come too far to give up now.Every small victory feels monumental; the sharp edge I found on this decrepit chair has become my lifeline. With each careful cut, I feel the ropes beginning to fray, but the struggle is exhausting. I pause only when the pain becomes unbearable, taking a moment to breathe deeply, my stomach growling in protest, begging for sustenance. But I can’t think about food right now; I can’t let my mind wander too far from the task at hand.My throat is dry as parchment paper, a painful reminder of my situation, but I force myself to focus. I need to be strong. I need to find a way out of here. I listen intently for any sounds beyond t

(Thomas)The dim, flickering neon sign of The Golden Cage cast a shadow across the street as I parked my car. Beside me, Jack exhaled a low, tense breath.“This place looks like a setup for a bad decision,” he muttered, scanning the scene through the windshield.I gave a slight nod, “But it’s the only lead we’ve got. And if it gets us closer to Lydia, I don’t care what kind of place it is.”Jack glanced at me, his usual calm slipping just a bit when he said, “We’ll get her back, Thomas.”I didn’t answer. All I could think about was Lydia’s face, the way her hand felt in mine the last time I saw her. The determination, the strength…she’d been braver than anyone I knew. But I couldn’t bear the thought of her locked away, maybe hurt or worse, just because Nathan had a score to settle.“Let’s get this done,” I said, stepping out of the car.We walked in silence to the door, the thick smell of stale beer and cigarette smoke hitting us like a wall as soon as we pushed inside.The place was

(Adeline)I watched Miles and Mabel nibbling on their cookies, little crumbs scattered around their plates and flecks of chocolate smudging their fingers. They giggled between bites, eyes bright and carefree, blissfully unaware of the shadows hanging over us.I forced a smile, but my heart felt heavy, as if a hand were squeezing it tightly. I could barely keep the tremble from my lips as I spoke, “Alright, darlings, time to finish up. Grandma’s getting tired.”Miles gave me a look of concern, his little forehead creased, “Bed already, Grandma?”“Yes, sweetheart,” I murmured, reaching over to brush a crumb off his cheek, “But first, I need to give you two a big kiss goodnight.”Mabel giggled and tilted her face toward me, waiting for her turn. I leaned down, pressing a soft kiss on each of their foreheads, breathing in their scent, the smell of warm cookies and innocence. If only I could shield them from every hurt, every worry. But I knew life had other plans.“Be good for Grandma Mar

After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 600 Far From Over
(Lydia)The reception was everything I had dreamed of and more. The air was filled with the sound of laughter, music, and the clinking of glasses. The venue, bathed in the soft glow of fairy lights, felt magical, as though we were all living in a dream. Thomas and I had just shared our vows, but now the celebration was in full swing, and the joy in the air was palpable.Mabel and Miles were the stars of the evening, as expected. They had barely left the dance floor since the music started, their little feet moving in uncoordinated yet adorable ways. Miles was trying to spin in circles, his arms flailing around as Mabel, ever the perfectionist, tried to keep him in check. They were a sight to behold, so carefree and full of life. Their giggles and shouts of “Look at me!” filled the room, and I couldn’t help but laugh along with them.Thomas was by my side, his hand gently resting on my back as we watched our children steal the show. The evening felt like it was slipping by in the most
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 599 The Wedding Day
(Thomas)The day had finally arrived. Our wedding day.I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my tie for the fifth time, trying to focus on the simple task instead of the rush of emotions threatening to overwhelm me. I couldn’t stop the memories from creeping in, images of Lydia in a wedding dress years ago, her radiant smile lighting up the room, and the way my heart had soared knowing she was about to become my wife.And then, the accident. The chaos, the pain, the years we spent finding our way back to each other.Today wasn’t just about vows or rings. It was about us. About the journey we had taken, the battles we had fought, and the love that had carried us through it all.A knock on the door pulled me from my thoughts. Jack stepped in, looking sharp in his suit, his usual easygoing expression replaced by something softer.“You doing okay?” he asked, leaning against the doorframe.I nodded, though my reflection betrayed me. “Just...a lot to process.”Jack walked over, clapping
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 598 Chaos and Vows
(Lydia)With only a week left until the wedding, the house felt like a beehive, everyone buzzing with purpose, energy, and, occasionally, a touch of chaos. I stood in the middle of it all, both exhilarated and slightly overwhelmed.Ruby was in the corner of Mama’s room, hunched over her sewing machine, her brow furrowed in concentration. My wedding dress hung on a nearby mannequin, almost complete but still needing those final, intricate touches that only Ruby could master. She was doing this here because if she needed to know any adjustments, I would just be a few rooms away.She was holed up in Mama’s room because she didn’t want Thomas to get a glimpse of the wedding dress, not until the day of the wedding as I walked down the aisle.“Are you sure you don’t need a break?” I asked, holding out a cup of tea for her.Ruby looked up, her eyes tired but determined. “Not until this hem is perfect. You’re going to look stunning, Lydia. Just trust me.”“I do,” I said softly, setting the te
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 597 Vision Came to Life
(Thomas)The moment we pulled up to the venue, I felt a mix of anticipation and pride. The sprawling garden, framed by blooming flowers and soft sunlight, looked like something out of a dream. This was it, the place where Lydia and I would officially start the next chapter of our lives.Mabel and Miles were already buzzing with excitement, craning their necks to get a better look as the car slowed to a stop.“Is that where we’re going to walk with the flowers?” Mabel asked, pointing to the long stone pathway that led to the main garden.“It is,” I said, glancing at Lydia, who was smiling softly.“It’s so pretty!” Miles added, practically bouncing in his seat.Once we were out of the car, the kids ran ahead, their laughter echoing in the crisp air. Lydia and I followed at a slower pace, her hand tucked into mine.“Can you believe it’s almost here?” she asked, her voice tinged with disbelief.I shook my head. “It feels surreal. But seeing this place again...it makes it all feel real.”T
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 596 Guest List
(Lydia)Sitting at the dining table with Thomas, a notebook in front of me and a pen in hand, I felt an odd mix of excitement and dread. Finalizing the guest list for our wedding should have been a straightforward task, but when Margaret got involved, nothing ever stayed simple for long.I glanced at Thomas, who was scrolling through his phone, cross-checking names. He looked calm, but I knew better. We were both bracing ourselves for the inevitable drama.“Are we really going to put up with Margaret’s list of distant cousins and relatives we’ve never met?” I asked, my voice low but pointed.Thomas sighed and set his phone down. “You know how mother is. She thinks a wedding is a chance to show off family connections.”“Well, it’s not her wedding,” I said firmly. “It’s ours, and I want it to feel personal, not like some society gala.”Thomas reached over and squeezed my hand. “I agree with you. But let’s try to handle this delicately. You know how she can get.”Before I could respond,
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 595 Sparkles and Glittery Petals
(Thomas)The house was alive with energy, and it all revolved around two very determined little people: Mabel and Miles. Ever since we’d told them they were going to be the flower girl and flower boy at the wedding, their excitement had reached a whole new level. They were taking their roles very seriously, perhaps even more seriously than Lydia and I were taking the rest of the wedding planning.This morning, the focus was on their outfits. Lydia and I had arranged for a tailor to come to the house to ensure everything fit perfectly. Mabel was already dressed in a soft pink dress with layers of tulle that made her look like a little princess. She twirled in front of the mirror, her curls bouncing with every spin.“Do you think I need a tiara, Daddy?” she asked, her big brown eyes wide with sincerity.I crouched down to her level, brushing a stray curl from her face. “I think you’re perfect just the way you are, sweetheart. But if you really want a tiara, we can look for one.”Mabel c
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 594 The Wedding Dress
(Lydia)The morning sun streamed through the windows as I parked outside Ruby’s boutique. My heart fluttered with a mix of nerves and excitement. In just two weeks, I would be walking down the aisle to marry Thomas, the man who had stood by me through everything. But today, all I could think about was my first fitting for the wedding dress Ruby had been tirelessly designing.As I stepped into the boutique, the soft chime of the bell announced my arrival. Ruby appeared from the back room, her face lighting up with a smile that instantly put me at ease.“You’re here!” she said, walking over to hug me. “I’ve been waiting for this all week.”“I’ve been counting down the days,” I admitted, hugging her back. “I’m nervous, though. What if the dress doesn’t feel right? What if-”Ruby placed her hands on my shoulders, her expression firm but kind. “Stop right there. This dress is going to be perfect because it’s made for you, by me. Trust me, Lydia.”I took a deep breath and nodded. “Okay. I t
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 593 Fading Shadows of the Past
(Lydia)The sunlight poured down as I stepped out of the car, grocery list in hand. For the first time in what felt like forever, I wasn’t looking over my shoulder or scanning the parking lot for anything suspicious. Ben, my personal bodyguard, walked a few paces behind me, his presence a quiet reassurance. But today, I didn’t feel like I needed him as much as I had in the past.The air felt lighter, and so did I. It was as if the dark cloud that had loomed over my life for so long had finally dissipated. Nathan was gone, Lucien was behind bars, and the world was moving on. So was I.Inside the grocery store, I grabbed a cart and started down the aisles. It felt good to do something as ordinary as picking out apples and comparing cereal brands. For so long, I’d avoided public places, afraid of the whispers and stares. But today, there were none. People walked past me, absorbed in their own lives, and it was blissfully normal.I paused by the bakery section, tempted by the scent of fre
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 592 A Garden Wedding
(Lydia)The sleek glass doors of the event management company slid open, and Thomas and I stepped inside. The lobby was stunning, a perfect balance of elegance and modernity. Polished marble floors gleamed under the soft glow of chandelier lights, and a gentle floral scent wafted through the air. A cheerful receptionist greeted us, offering sparkling water while we waited for our meeting.Thomas leaned toward me, his hand resting lightly on the small of my back. “This place screams ‘perfect wedding,’ doesn’t it?”I smiled, squeezing his arm. “Let’s see if they can live up to the hype.”It was Margaret who had given us the name of this event management company after making her calls and asking around for suggestions. And as far as I could tell, the place looked like the sort of company I would have chosen for myself.Moments later, a tall, impeccably dressed man approached us with a wide smile. His tailored navy suit and silk pocket square spoke volumes about his attention to detail.
