After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 522 Not Impulsive
(Lydia)I paced the length of the living room, my mind spinning as I replayed the conversation with Thomas over and over again. He had been so calm, so resolute, outlining his plan to meet Lucien. His confidence should have reassured me, but it didn’t. Instead, it filled me with a gnawing anxiety I couldn’t shake. Thomas thought he could control the situation, but he didn’t fully understand how dangerous Lucien could be.Lucien wasn’t just greedy; he was calculating, vengeful, and utterly without conscience. The idea of drawing him into a trap made my stomach churn with dread. What if something went wrong? What if Lucien turned the tables on us? The stakes were too high.I tried to keep my hands busy, folding the kids’ laundry and tidying the room, but even the familiar routines couldn’t calm my racing mind. The quiet of the mansion was oppressive, each creak and groan of the old house amplifying the tension. I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and hardly recognized the woman s

(Lydia)I walked into Ruby’s boutique, the familiar scent of fresh flowers and designer fabrics wrapping around me like a comfort I didn’t know I needed. Ruby was behind the counter, speaking with a customer, her expression poised but warm, the embodiment of her boutique’s inviting yet exclusive atmosphere. She glanced up and caught my eye, her smile faltering slightly as she noticed the tension in my face.“I’ll be with you in a second,” she mouthed.I nodded, trying to calm the storm of thoughts swirling in my head. As she finished with the customer, I drifted toward a display of dresses, running my fingers over the delicate fabrics. Ruby always had impeccable taste, each piece reflecting her eye for elegance. It made me wonder how she managed to focus on her passion while life outside these walls seemed to crumble around us.When the boutique emptied, Ruby walked over, slipping an arm around my shoulders, “Hey, you look like you’ve got the weight of the world on you. Let’s go to t

(Thomas)The warehouse loomed ahead like a relic from another time, its rusted exterior and shattered windows giving it an eerie, post-apocalyptic feel. My car idled for a moment as I surveyed the desolate surroundings. This was the kind of place Lucien would pick, a setting straight out of a crime thriller where villains held all the cards. The irony wasn’t lost on me, but I wasn’t here to play games.I stepped out of the car, my steps measured as I approached the entrance. Every instinct screamed at me to turn back, but I couldn’t. Lydia’s face flashed in my mind, the way her voice had cracked when she begged me to be careful. This wasn’t just about Lucien. It was about keeping my family safe.George and the team were stationed in a van a block away, their surveillance equipment primed. I’d insisted on backup, though we’d agreed they’d remain hidden unless things went sideways. As I pushed the heavy metal door open, my senses heightened, scanning for any signs of ambush.Inside, the

(Thomas)The drive back from the warehouse was cloaked in a suffocating silence, broken only by the hum of the engine and the occasional crackle of static from my phone’s connection to George. The events of the meeting with Lucien replayed in my mind, each detail etching itself deeper into my thoughts. His demand for Nathan’s life wasn’t just outrageous; it was a calculated attempt to push me to my limit, to test how far I’d go to protect my family.But even as I navigated the dark, empty streets, I knew one thing for certain, I couldn’t tell Lydia about this.Lydia had enough on her shoulders. Her guilt over Clara, the stress of keeping secrets, and the constant fear for our family’s safety weighed her down like anchors. Throwing Lucien’s murderous ultimatum into the mix would only shatter her. It was my job to bear this burden, not hers.Lucien had miscalculated if he thought I’d play his game. Killing Nathan was out of the question, no matter how he tried to frame it. But I needed

(Jack)I stared at the tumbler of whiskey on my desk, its amber liquid catching the dim light of my office. I’d poured it half an hour ago but hadn’t taken a single sip. The weight of what I needed to do pressed down on me like a lead jacket, suffocating and unrelenting.Ruby.Her name alone conjured a thousand memories, some warm, others sharp, all of them tangled in the complicated web we’d spun over the timeline of our relationship. She’d moved on, or at least she was trying to. And here I was, about to drag her back into a mess she didn’t deserve to be in.The truth about Jean Dupont, or rather, Marco, was a truth I’d been holding onto ever since I saw them at that hotel. Every instinct I had screamed to protect Ruby, to shield her from the man I knew was dangerous. But every day I kept silent felt like a betrayal.How would she look at me when I finally told her? Would there be anger, disappointment, hurt? All of the above?I ran a hand through my hair and exhaled sharply, pushin

(Jack)I stood in front of Marco, my fists clenched at my sides. We were in an empty alley behind a posh restaurant, the kind of place where people came to forget about the rest of the world. The sharp chill of the evening air cut through my jacket, but I hardly noticed. My focus was entirely on Marco, standing just a few feet in front of me, the look on his face a mask of casual amusement.I had cornered him at the restaurant and called him out here to talk about what he was doing lately.I hated him. I hated that he had wormed his way into Ruby’s life, spinning his web and pretending to be something he wasn’t. I hated that I hadn’t put a stop to it sooner, and now I was standing here, trying to keep her safe from a man who wasn’t what he seemed.“You’re out of your depth, Jack,” Marco said, his voice smooth like silk, but with a layer of something darker underneath. He was looking at me like I was an insignificant annoyance, and I could feel the contempt radiating off him.I took a

(Jack)The moment I stepped into Thomas’s office, I could tell something was off. There was a heaviness in the air, the kind that hangs over you when you know something’s wrong but can’t quite put your finger on it. Thomas was sitting at his desk, his back to the door, staring at a stack of papers like they were the last thing on earth that mattered. His usual composure, the one I’d always admired, seemed to have faltered.I closed the door quietly behind me, but Thomas didn’t acknowledge my presence at first. It was as if he was lost in his thoughts, consumed by whatever battle was raging inside his head. I waited for a moment, watching him, before I finally spoke up.“Thomas, we need to talk.”At the sound of my voice, he straightened slightly, as if the words snapped him out of his trance. He turned in his chair, his eyes meeting mine. There was something in them, a weariness, a kind of frustration, that made me hesitate. Whatever was going on, I had a feeling I wasn’t going to lik

(Lydia)I sat at the kitchen counter, absentmindedly stirring the mug of coffee in front of me. The steam rose, curling in delicate tendrils, but I hardly noticed. My mind was elsewhere. It was on Thomas. He had come home late last night, distant, almost cold. The moment I looked at him, I knew something was wrong. He wasn’t telling me everything, and I could feel the weight of his silence pressing on me.I had tried to brush it off, tried to go on as if everything were normal. But deep down, I knew it wasn’t. There was something he was hiding from me. I could feel it in the air, a tension that lingered between us like an unspoken word, heavy and suffocating.The thing that bothered me the most was Clara. After everything that had happened with Lucien, I had been trying to reach her. I’d called the number she had given me, but it had been turned off. Each time I dialed, my stomach churned, a sense of dread creeping over me. Why was she suddenly unreachable?I couldn’t wait any longer.

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.
