Love's Redemption Chapter 53
I gulped down over half the glass. "He left Chiverton a while ago.""Hmm?" Lena sat cross-legged across from me, her face curious."I turned him down, so he left. Apparently, he had work to do," I said, making Lena pause."He left? Didn't he try harder?" Lena shook her head. "This guy lacks persistence.""He knows when to back off; he's not the clingy type," I said, thinking about Hayden's rugged and sturdy demeanor.Lena tilted her head, looking at me. "If he had tried a bit harder, would you have—""No," I cut her off. "I won't use one person to heal the wounds another man caused.""So, no one can easily replace Jace," Lena concluded.I gave a faint smile. "Jace agreed to break up with me."Lena was stunned.I put down my glass. "I'm just here to shower and change before heading to the Johnstons. I need to clear things up with Matthew and Lindey. Jace and I... we're done."As I said it, I lowered my head.It wasn't that I didn't want to let go, or that I felt relieved. It

Lindey and Matthew tensed up when I spoke, not surprised but definitely uneasy."Rea, we know about it. It's not your fault. It's that rascal Jace's fault. I scolded him. I told him to come back and apologize to you..." Lindey started, cursing Jace before I could even get a word in.She was trying to keep me from saying what she didn't want to hear.Matthew, more rational, interrupted her, "Let Rea speak."Lindey's grip on my hand tightened, her eyes begging me not to say what she feared.I lowered my gaze, trying to stay composed. "Jace and I have broken up."The room fell into a heavy silence, with Lindey's grip tightening even more."Why?" Matthew's voice was deep and authoritative.I knew I had to give them a reason they couldn't argue with, or this would never end. Just saying Jace and I were incompatible wouldn't cut it.So, I decided to be honest. "Because of Tanya. He cares more about her than he does about me, his fiancée."Lindey pulled my hand closer. "What has he

Lindey's grip on my hand trembled, and she cursed, "That rascal! I'll call him right now and ask him what he thinks he's doing. Didn't he say there's nothing going on with that woman?"She let go of my hand and reached for her phone.I flexed my hand to shake off the numbness. "Lindey, I've already talked to him at the office. He agreed to break up, and..." I hesitated before continuing, "He's even hired Tanya to work at the company."Saying all this today felt like tattling. Since that was the case, I might as well spill everything Jace had done."What?"They were visibly shocked, especially Matthew, whose face darkened.Lindey turned to him. "Didn't you say you had control over everything at the company? How could you not know about this?"Just as I suspected, Matthew might stay home, but he knew everything about the company.However, small details like an individual hire weren't always on a chairman's radar.Matthew didn't respond, but his eyes showed clear anger.Lindey u

'Wayne is back!'I hadn't seen that coming, just like I didn't think he'd remember my dad's number.Matthew and Lindey were equally surprised, staring at Wayne in disbelief.Wayne had been gone for four years without a single visit. His sudden return was a total surprise and a real thrill for them."Mom, Dad, what's up? Aren't you guys happy to see me?" Wayne said, walking over with a grin.Wayne had always been the warm, big brother type. In the ten years I spent with the Johnston family before he left, he brought the most warmth to the house.Unlike Jace, who was all about showing off how well he treated me, Wayne's kindness was the real deal—quiet and genuine, more about what he did than what he said."Wayne," I called out to him.This brought Matthew and Lindey back to their senses. Lindey released me, stood up, and walked to Wayne, lightly hitting him twice. "You still remember you have parents? You still know how to come home?"Matthew chimed in, "Why didn't you give us

Wayne paused, looking at me puzzled.I gave a bitter smile. "Your mom had it renovated."Handing him his bag, I said, "You go ahead and settle in. I've got some packing to do too."He nodded, and I headed to my room.The room still had both my and Jace's stuff. It was clear no one had stayed here since I left.'Looks like Jace hasn't been back at all. So where's he been? At Splendor Heights with Tanya?'Thinking about it made my chest tighten again. I thought I had moved on from Jace, but the wound still needed time to heal.I forced myself not to dwell on it and started packing.Over the years, I had developed a habit of minimalism, so my clothes and personal items weren't excessive. Everything fit into one suitcase.As I was almost done, there was a knock on the door. I walked over and opened it to find Wayne standing there.He had changed clothes and glanced past me to see the open suitcase on the bed. His brow furrowed. "Are you moving out of our home?""Yeah, it would b

"Cutie Pie, you still have me," Wayne said, gently patting the back of my head before letting go.I hadn't cried at all until now. Suddenly, my eyes filled up, and the tears just started pouring. I didn't want to cry in front of him, but I couldn't stop. 'I can't let these tears fall, they'll give me away,' I told myself.Swallowing them back only made them flow faster. I turned my head, trying to hide my face. Wayne's hand landed on my head again, gently ruffling my hair. "It's okay to cry in front of me, you remember?"He had said that before. Now, he said it again.But in this moment, his words tore at the last shreds of my dignity. I turned my back to him, quickly wiping away the tears.Sensing my discomfort, he picked up my suitcase. "I'll put this in your car."As he left, I covered my face and let the tears flow freely. When I finally went downstairs, Matthew and Lindey were still busy in the kitchen, their joy at Wayne's return overshadowing their anxiety about losing me

"No, it's for us. Since the best time to see the lighting effects is at night, we need to be prepared for all-nighters. Going back home wouldn't be convenient," I explained.Demi gave me a thumbs up. "Keira, you're so thoughtful.""And if you have a boyfriend, give him a heads-up. We'll be taking up your quality time," I teased her."No worries. It'll be a good test for him," Demi said, smiling happily and sweetly."Alright, let's get to work. To save time, we need to identify all the issues so that when the experts arrive, they can get straight to solving them," I instructed.Demi nodded and pulled out the blueprints. "I'll handle zones A, D, and F.""I'll take the rest," I replied. Even though I was in charge, I had to work just as hard as Demi.The next day, we met with the two representatives from the construction team, Mr. Hudson and Mr. Wyatt.In the afternoon, we welcomed the lighting supplier's reps, Mr. Ziegler and Mr. Larson.We discussed the issues Demi and I had id

Quentin: [Keira, is it true that you and Jace broke off your engagement?]Eric: [Keira, Jace has gone mad with anger. Don't be upset. We'll sort him out for you.]Daniel: [Keira, when you have time, let me treat you and Jace to dinner.]Toby: [Count me in. I can definitely help patch things up between you and Jace.]Andrew: [Guys, stop making a fuss. Couples have their fights and make up. You're just stirring things up.]I stared at the screen, puzzled. 'What have they heard that made them tag me in the group?'The chat had eight members, and all guys were Jace's sworn brothers. Besides who had posted, there were Jace, me, and Steve. Steve was the only one who hadn't said anything, but he knew me best.In the brotherhood, Jace was the third eldest, and Steve was the sixth. I met Steve before Jace and I were officially a couple. It was before Steve and Jace had sworn brotherhood.I sent Steve a private message: [Steve, what rumors have they heard?]Steve replied almost instantl

Love's Redemption Chapter 852
It was evening when Lena had just wrapped up her shift, only to find the nurses buzzing about something. Curious, she asked, "Alright, what's all the excitement about?""Dr. Lane, there's a ridiculously handsome man waiting outside!" one nurse gushed.Just like guys get a rush from seeing a gorgeous woman, girls feel the same buzz when a total dreamboat walks in.Lena couldn't help but tease, "Well, no matter how hot he is, if you don't make a move, he's still someone else's."Despite her usually no-nonsense demeanor at work, Lena loved joining in on the fun when the day was done. A little playful banter was the perfect way to unwind after a marathon of patients."So, are we making a move?" one nurse joked as the group headed toward the hospital's entrance, giggling.But when Lena stepped outside, she froze.There, bathed in the golden glow of sunset, stood Aaron.Dressed in a black coat over a sharp suit and crisp white shirt, he looked like he'd walked off the cover of GQ. Th
Love's Redemption Chapter 851
The caller was Aaron.Thank God.Lena answered. "Uncle Aaron, you want to help me move? Not now—I'm at work treating a very important patient..."Aaron didn't even pretend to buy it. "Your mom's at your office?""Wow, psychic much? Yeah, she's here. Says she's 'sick everywhere.' I gave her a referral for some tests, and now I'm the heartless daughter." Lena jerked her chair back as Carol reached over to grab her phone. "Hey!"Carol swiped it anyway. Of course she did. Bringing it to her ear, she said, "Aaron.""Carol, Lena said you're not feeling well?" Aaron's voice was calm, smooth—annoyingly unflappable.Carol coughed lightly, throwing a sharp look Lena's way. "I'm fine. She just made me mad. If she doesn't agree to move back home, I'm not leaving.""Actually, Lena already agreed to move in with me," Aaron replied, his tone so breezy it sounded like he wasn't lying through his teeth. "My place is close to the hospital, so her commute will be easier."Carol whipped her head

Lena had just finished with her last patient and was finally about to sip her water when a knock interrupted her peace."Come in!" she called, expecting another patient.The door swung open, and the moment Lena saw who it was, her stomach dropped."Mom?!" she blurted. "What are you doing here?""I'm here to see a doctor!" Carol's tone wasn't exactly friendly.Lena craned her neck, glancing at the hallway behind her mom. "Where's Dad? Didn't he come with you?"Carol scoffed. "There's a sign outside that says no men allowed, isn't there?"Lena laughed. "That doesn't apply to Dad.""What, is he not a man?" Carol shot back.Lena's smile froze. Great. Mom wasn't just here—she was on a mission.For weeks now, her parents had been nagging her to move back home. Lena hadn't budged—she'd even stopped answering their calls. It looked like Carol had reached her breaking point and decided to stage a full-on ambush."Mom," Lena started, trying to sound professional, "I'm at work. If you

"The Hart family wants me to come back," Hayden said. I immediately got it without him needing to explain further.The Harts had stayed weirdly quiet through all the chaos Hayden had been through. Why? No clue."What are you thinking?" I asked. Then, with a sly smile, added, "Let me guess—you don't want to go, but you feel like you should?"Hayden noticed I wasn't eating and nudged my plate closer. "Eat first.""Talk, and I'll eat," I shot back.He pushed my favorite dishes right in front of me. "No one can make me do something I don't want to.""Then it's me you're worried about?" I asked, the thought hitting me mid-bite.Hayden didn't answer, which, of course, was the answer. My mind raced for a moment before I teased, "Wait—don't tell me going back means you'd have to marry Yara?"Hayden sighed. "The Hart heir and the Drago heir are supposed to marry. It's been decided for years."So if he didn't want that, all he had to do was step down as the Hart heir. Easy, right? Excep

I was laughing so hard my sides hurt, tears streaming down my face. Lena just sat there, arms crossed, waiting for me to finish."You good now? Because I actually need your help."If Lena was asking me for advice, she must've been really stuck. Normally, she's the one with all the answers."Okay," I said, catching my breath. "First, spill. Does Nate even still have a shot?"She grabbed an orange off the table and started peeling it. "What do you think?"When she's done with someone, she's done. No second chances, no rewrites. Nate clearly hadn't gotten that memo, though, because here he was, pulling out all the stops to win her back.And then there was Aaron—her technically-not-really-blood-related uncle and childhood friend. Cue the awkward-family-ties-turned-unexpected-complication drama."If you're not giving Nate any hope, just move in with your uncle," I said.She arched a brow. "Why?""Because Nate's literally working at this hospital to be near you. Daytime interactions
Love's Redemption Chapter 847
"Uncle Aaron, did you stir things up with my parents?" Lena asked.Aaron didn't bother denying it, and his silence was all the answer she needed."Aaron Ace! Are you kidding me? I trusted you!"Her voice echoed with frustration, but deep down, Lena knew arguing was pointless. Carol and Gabriel weren't exactly known for backing down. If she couldn't convince them to chill, they'd probably show up at the hospital and haul her home themselves.Taking a breath, Lena tried a different approach. "Okay, what's it gonna take for me to not move back home?"Aaron's answer was maddeningly casual. "Stay at my place."Lena blinked, stunned into silence."Just for a bit," Aaron added. "Once your parents ease up, you can go back to your apartment."Lena's stomach did a little flip. Living with Aaron? Yeah, no thanks. Sure, things weren't as awkward between them anymore, but this? Way too weird.Still, her options were basically nonexistent."I'll think about it," Lena said, even though she

In this world, only one person had ever called her "Twinkle"—Aaron. And that had been a relic of their shared childhood.Nate's gaze shifted to Aaron, and his hand fell back to his side. "Uncle Aaron.""Professor Neumann," Aaron replied coolly. "Given your current situation, you can just call me Mr. Ace." His words were a subtle reminder that Nate's connection to Lena was no longer valid.Aaron then turned to Lena. "If it's convenient, I'd like to talk to you about something.""Sure," Lena agreed, glancing at Nate briefly before walking off with Aaron.Standing beside Aaron, who loomed over her like a shadow, Lena looked smaller than usual. "Is this about my parents?"Since returning, Carol and Gabriel had been pushing her to move back home, claiming it was the only way they'd feel at ease. Even her grandparents had joined in."They want to know if you've thought it through," Aaron said, confirming her suspicion.Lena put on a tone of consideration. "I don't want to move back,"

Lena gave me a quick glance and smiled. "Don't worry, the baby's doing great. I'll check on you again later."***After leaving my room, Lena headed straight to the director's office. The moment she stepped inside, her breath caught—Nate was sitting on the couch next to Dr. Warren.But Lena, ever composed, quickly recovered. "Dr. Warren. Professor Neumann."The formal title hit Nate like a punch. He wanted to call her Lena, but the name stuck in his throat."Dr. Lane, please take a seat," Dr. Warren said warmly, gesturing to the chair next to Nate.Lena sat down, calm and professional, while Dr. Warren's gaze bounced between the two of them, clearly sensing the tension."You already know Professor Neumann, so I'll skip introductions," Dr. Warren began. "He's made a groundbreaking breakthrough in fetal cardiac correction during pregnancy, and he's chosen our hospital as the pilot site. Dr. Lane, you'll be collaborating closely with him on this project."Lena's heart clenched. Sh
Love's Redemption Chapter 844
I never imagined the boy who had shaped so much of my life would one day wear the robes of a Harmonist guide, dedicating himself to a life of reflection.Jace had cut himself off from the chaos of the world. Whether it was peace or simply his way of escaping love and attachment, he'd left everything—and everyone—behind.***After returning from Cloudscape Monastery, I fell ill. A relentless fever knocked me out for two days, leaving me trapped in a swirl of disjointed dreams—my parents, Matthew, Lindey, Jace, Wayne... all of them.In the dream, it felt like I was drowning. No matter how hard I tried to wake up, something kept pulling me deeper.At some point, I thought I heard voices. Jace's. Hayden's. Were they real? They spoke in muffled tones I couldn't make out.But when Jace left—if he was ever really there—the dreams stopped.***When I finally opened my eyes, sunlight flooded the room, blindingly warm. I raised my hand to block it, but my fingers brushed against somethin
