Beyond the Divorce Chapter 236 A Sincere Invitation
Ryan beamed when he heard my words. Even his usually composed expression reddened. However, I felt an overwhelming guilt. Perhaps I had been too cruel to him. Even a simple suggestion like this could move him so much.He seemed slightly nervous, saying, “Well… I hadn’t thought about that.”“Then, let’s do it! First, they get to experience the Southern climate. Secondly, it’ll save you the hassle of traveling. Finally, our families can celebrate together. Oh, I can invite Lauren, too. Her parents aren’t around, and her younger sister doesn’t move much.“I’ll invite her to my house, and you can all stay at my place. No need for hotels. It’ll be super lively.” I spoke genuinely.I had met Ryan’s parents before. His dad ran a small business, and his mom had a fixed job. They were wonderful people. It was a spontaneous idea, and I hadn’t discussed it with my parents. Still, I believed they wouldn’t oppose it.“Wouldn’t it trouble you if everyone stayed at your place?” Ryan seemed hesit
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 237 Meeting Once More
My heart raced, but I stayed tough. I replied with the same emotionless tone, “I’m sorry. I don’t know what you’re talking about.”"Do you have any questions for me?" Atlas continued to scrutinize me."None," I stubbornly responded."Are you sure?" His gaze turned cold."Mr. Atlas, if you called me here to make things difficult, I apologize, but I'll take my leave." I didn't have the time to confront him here. It would be meaningless. I’d rather be with my family.His eyes narrowed. "Do you want to avoid me without clarifying your doubts?”Atlas’s words struck a chord with me. It was as if he could see through me. I guiltily lowered my gaze, not allowing myself to have further delusions for this man. I couldn’t let him trample on my pride like this.While Atlas had fun with Harmony, I was alone. It was horrible, and I wondered how he differed from Matthew. I might have lost value in Atlas’s eyes, but I would never disrespect myself that way.He could see through my emotions and
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 238 Bitten by a Dog
I clicked my tongue in frustration and clenched my bag strap, fingernails digging into my palm. The pain gave me an odd sense of comfort.Suddenly, Atlas’s phone rang. He looked at me and answered, "Yeah?"A woman's voice said, "Atlas, where are you?""I'm busy," he replied coldly."Do you want to come out? Maybe you can come to my place?" The woman's voice turned tender."Another time. I'm busy right now," Atlas responded and hung up.I felt awkward and said, "Mr. Atlas, you seem busy. I'll take my leave."Without waiting for his response, I headed toward the exit. However, he quickly held me. I yelped in surprise as he turned me to face him. He was about to kiss me when he saw something on my neck.He asked angrily, "What happened here?! Who did this?!"I was puzzled. I looked at Atlas with panic, saying, "I don't know what you're talking about."He grabbed my wrist tightly and led me to an exquisite bathroom with mirrors on the entire wall. Atlas pushed me toward one of th
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 239 Whose Choice Is It?
I lifted my head and noticed his bleeding hand. I looked at him, feeling flustered. “I have so many things to say, but not like this. I don’t want to beg for love or live in the shadows. I hate playing games and manipulation. I just want a peaceful life.”I looked at the ceiling and continued, "I hate the constant deceit and schemes. If I must choose, I want the one who has always been by my side. I don't want to miss that anymore."I knew these words would cut deep into Atlas’s heart. However, they were insignificant to me. Since I couldn’t have him, I would let him go. I had no reason to hold onto something that wasn't mine.Atlas looked into my eyes and asked, "Are you sure about your choice?"I hesitated, then lowered my head. "Yes."Suddenly, he smiled. "Good, Chloe, you've finally made your choice."I looked at him in confusion. I wondered why he said it was my choice when it was his. His thoughts confused me. Why’d he be affectionate with another woman and then blame me?
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 240 The Strange Previous Injury
I realized I was in the hospital when I awoke."Are you awake? Do you feel any discomfort?" An attractive voice sounded, and I turned to see Atlas."How did I end up here?" I asked weakly. My memory of recent events was hazy.He pressed the call button, and the doctor entered to reexamine me. He asked, "Do you feel any discomfort?""No, I’m just exhausted and want to sleep," I replied.Dylan entered with a large paper bag and said, "Doctor, here are her X-rays. Please take a look."The doctor examined several X-ray films and asked me, "Miss, how long ago did you break your collarbone?"I stared at the doctor in disbelief and asked, "Are you talking about me?""Yes, from the X-rays, you have an old collarbone fracture. You should be careful with that area as it’s prone to issues. Besides that, you're fine. Thankfully, the car wasn't going too fast, so there was no major harm. You can just go home and rest."The doctor's words shocked me. I tried to explain, “I’ve never had a bo
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 241 A Silent Resolve
I entered the house, and my parents were still awake, waiting for me.When my mom saw how tired I looked, she grabbed my bag and asked, "Why are you so late? Have you eaten? Why do you look so pale?""I haven't eaten yet, Mom. I'm starving!" It's true what they say—a mother's child is always her treasure. No matter how old you are, as long as your mother is by your side, you're still her child."Alright, I'll heat some food for you!" "Dad, I'm going to change my clothes!" After saying that, I went upstairs. In truth, I longed for my daughter and went straight to Ava's room. Seeing her sleep so peacefully was heartwarming. Her chubby little legs were poking out from the blanket. I smiled and tucked them back in.She turned over, and her little hand grabbed my shirt. It was as if she sensed something and slowly opened her sleepy eyes. With a sweet smile, she called out, "Mommy!"At that moment, I felt more fulfilled than I ever had. What else could I possibly wish for? I h
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 242 A Special New Year's Day
Suddenly, I noticed a car parked outside the main door, and my heart skipped a beat. The soft night light in the room would show my silhouette, so I pulled the curtains and turned off the light.I leaned against the window, straining to hear any sounds from outside. My eyes grew teary, and I cursed myself for this display of emotion. Wasn't it better for us to stay in our own worlds?Only the faint sound of the car moving away could be heard, and a few tears escaped. I quickly pulled the curtains open and looked outside, but all I could see were the fading red tail lights disappearing from view. My heart tightened.He left even though it was late. He did not come in eagerly like he used to.I slowly drew the curtains again and sat blankly on the bed. Eventually, I got under the covers and tried to sleep.It was already close to noon the next day when I woke up. I woke up close to noon the next day, feeling refreshed. After getting ready, I went downstairs for lunch. I considered
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 243 Alone in a Crowded Room
This New Year was unlike any other before. I stayed home, enjoying the joyful atmosphere of a large family gathering filled with laughter and chatter. Little Ava became the center of attention.Even Ivanna joined us after just a few days away. Our family showcased their culinary skills, preparing their signature dishes and creating a festive atmosphere with bright lights in the yard.During the day, I pretended to be carefree like everyone else, but at night, my thoughts couldn't help but drift to that person. Had he left town? He hadn't called, and I didn't reach out. I wanted to test my self-control.Fortunately, I had Ivanna and Lauren to keep me company. Ivanna quietly whispered, "Harmony seems to be fading. She's been saying she spent Christmas overseas, but it's all a lie. She's my artist. I know she worked on a shoot the whole time. Is Atlas getting tired of her?"Lauren quickly nudged her and shot her a meaningful look.I calmly responded, "It’s none of my concern. I’ve
