I sat on the couch in my apartment, feeling a strange sense of relief after being released from prison. But beneath that sense of relief was a haunting emptiness. Darwis sat beside me, holding my hand gently. He had always been there for me, but even his presence couldn’t completely erase the shadow of regret that clouded my heart.As Darwis walked into the kitchen to make tea, my mind drifted back to moments past. The miscarriage I had experienced so long ago still felt so real, like a wound that hadn’t healed. I had lost our baby, a hope and a dream that had been shattered so easily. When I first found out I was pregnant, I felt so happy and hopeful. I had imagined a future with Darwis and our child, a happy family. But then it all fell apart in the blink of an eye.I remembered that night, as the blood began to flow and the unbearable pain wracked my body. I knew something was wrong, and fear crept into my heart. When the doctor confirmed th

Kate’s POVThat night, I couldn’t sleep. The prosecutor’s decision to acquit Darwis and Kayra of all charges kept haunting my mind. The fact that they could go free without any punishment felt so unfair. I was restless, pacing my apartment, trying to find a way to get justice.After trying to contact the prosecutor’s office several times and getting turned down by the receptionist, I felt frustrated. There was no satisfactory answer, and every time I tried to meet the prosecutor, I was always told that he was busy with a trial or other matters. I knew something was wrong, something was being hidden.Finally, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I had to get answers, and the only way to do that was to confront Darwis directly. I grabbed my car keys and left the apartment, my heart full of determination. When I arrived at Darwis' apartment, I felt a mixture of anger, sadness, and anxiety. I didn't know what to expect, but I knew I had

Kate's POV Inside the apartment, I threw my bag on the sofa and slumped down on the dining chair. I felt so tired, both physically and emotionally. Everything that had happened lately had drained my energy. I felt like I was in a vicious circle that had no end. I lowered my head, holding my face with both hands, trying to calm myself down. However, the image of Darwis and Kayra's faces kept appearing in my mind, making my anger burn even more. I couldn't let this go. I had to do something, but I didn't know what. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I raised my head in surprise, wondering who could be coming at this time of night. I stood up and walked towards the door, opening it carefully. There stood Erlan, with a worried expression on his face. "Kate, I'm worried about you. Are you okay?" he asked softly. Seeing Erlan's caring face made me feel a little calmer. I nodded slowly and let him in. "Come in

Erlan told me a lot about your skills and experience,” Tio said with a respectful smile.I returned his smile, feeling a little more comfortable. “Nice to meet you too, Tio. I hope we can have a good working relationship.”The meeting started smoothly. Tio presented his idea enthusiastically, and I could immediately see the great potential in his project. Erlan occasionally added comments, supporting Tio’s ideas and showing how well the project fits with our company’s vision.During the conversation, I felt a sense of calm slowly flowing into me. Focusing on work and discussing a productive future distracted my mind from personal problems. I began to see the potential of this partnership not just as a business opportunity, but also as a way out of the emotional turmoil I was

Kate’s POVWhen I arrived at the office, the atmosphere felt formal and stressful again. The aroma of coffee from the next room greeted me, bringing a little sense of calm after the fun time I spent with Erlan. However, I knew that today would be filled with responsibilities and important decisions again.I walked through the lobby with a faint smile at the receptionist, who returned my smile politely. Arriving in front of my office door, I took a deep breath before opening it. A realization that even though life goes on, I must stay focused on my work.Inside, my secretary, Maya, was waiting with a stack of files in her hands. She was always punctual and organized, something I really appreciated amidst this busy schedule.“Good afternoon, Mrs. Kate,” Maya greeted politely. “There are some files that need to be signed today. Also, there are some meeting schedules that you need to review.”I nodded as I took off my jacket and placed it on

Kate’s POV“Yes, ma’am. I will arrange it immediately.”I hung up the phone and stared at the computer screen in front of me. The nervous feeling slowly turned into a fighting spirit. I knew that this competition would be tough, but I was more than ready to face whatever came. Both as a company leader and as someone who had to prove herself to her ex-husband, I would not back down. Slowly, a faint smile appeared on my face. The game had just begun, and I was ready to play. I looked back at the computer screen, feeling the throbbing in my head that indicated the tension that had not subsided. Even though I tried to focus on work, the thought of how the meeting with Darwis would go still haunted my mind. I knew very well that in the business world, I could not let personal feelings affect my professional judgment. However, this time it felt different. There was something about this competition that made it more than just a job. I t

Darwis' POVI stared at the computer screen in front of me, lost in the various graphs and moving numbers. The new project I was working on at Golden Group was one of the biggest projects in my career. The central building we were going to build was not only a symbol of the company's strength but also an important marker for my reputation as a successful leader.The success of this project would not only benefit the company but also strengthen my position in the business world. The building that was planned to stand majestically in the city center had been my main focus for the past few months. My team of architects and engineers had been working hard, and now we were almost at the tender presentation stage, where everything would be determined.Usually, I always felt confident in facing a big project like this, but this time there was something different, something that was bothering me.

If I could prepare everything well, then I could face Kate with my head held high and my heart at ease.Next week would be a big one, and I was determined to give it my best shot. I might not know what was going to happen, but I was confident that I was ready for whatever came—including meeting Kate.With that in mind, I went back to work, strategizing and preparing everything for the upcoming presentation.

Kayra's POVThe sky outside the window was gray, perfectly depicting my gloomy mood. I sat in the corner of the room, staring blankly at the curtained window. Since that incident, I felt like I was trapped in endless darkness. Every second, every minute, was filled with nothing but emptiness and deep sadness. I used to be a woman full of life and ambition, but now, I couldn't find anything that could motivate me to get out of bed every morning.The silence of this apartment was so oppressive. Every corner reminded me of what I had lost, of the life I used to have. But the most painful thing was the image of my child who I could no longer hold, could no longer touch. Losing him made me fall into a deep abyss of despair. And what was worse, I almost went to prison because of my own fault—because of my burning hatred for Kate.Kate. That name made my chest tighten every time I remembered it. The woman who was now the source of all my suffering. I blamed her f

Kate’s POV Erlan nodded, a wide smile still on his face. "Yes, Kate. I have prepared everything. We will get married in a week, at the place we talked about before. I just need one more thing..." He looked at me deeply, his loving eyes making me feel like the luckiest person in the world. "What is it?" I asked softly, almost whispering, while my heart was full of hope and happiness. Erlan reached out his hand, held mine gently, and then asked, "Will you marry me, Kate?" Tears began to well up in my eyes, but this time they were tears of unstoppable happiness. I had never felt love this great before, and I knew that Erlan was the right person for me. "Of course I do, Erlan," I answered in a voice full of emotion. "I want to marry you, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you." Erlan smiled happily, and in an instant, he pulled me into his arms. I could feel his strong heartbeat, accompanying my own. We hugged each other tightly as if we didn't want to let go

Kate's POV I stepped out of the office, the cool night air touching my skin as I walked to the car. The thought of having dinner with my father tonight made my steps feel heavier. Over the past few months, our relationship has begun to improve after the previous tension. My father, who was initially so against my relationship with Erlan, had slowly begun to soften. However, for some reason, something felt different. My father, who used to be stiff and rarely showed his emotions, was now more attentive. He often invited me to dinner, talking about little things that had never been a topic of conversation before. Although I was happy with this change, there was still a little worry that was bothering me. Was this a sign that he had finally accepted my relationship with Erlan? Or maybe there was something else he was hiding? I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself before finally deciding to leave. The restaurant my father had chosen was located near his house, so I decided to stop

Kate’s POV I sat on my bed, letting the reality of this message sink in completely. All the loneliness, all the patience, it was all about to pay off. It felt like a dream come true, a dream I had been waiting for so long. In a rush of enthusiasm, I typed a reply quickly, trying to channel all the feelings that were pressing to come out. [I'm so happy to hear that, Erlan! I can't wait to see you. I miss you too, and I'll be waiting with great enthusiasm. See you in a week, honey.] After sending the message, I smiled widely. The thought of the coming week began to fill my mind—the thought of the two of us walking together, having a romantic dinner, and all the warm conversations I had missed. Just imagining it made me feel happy. I stared at the ceiling of my room while hugging my pillow tightly, imagining the moment when I could finally hug Erlan again, feeling his warmth and calmness that I had only been able to feel from afar. This happy feeling was like sunlight shining on my

Kate’s POV He was tall and dignified, wearing a formal suit that fit him well. From the way he approached me, I could feel the intensity behind his smile. "Kate," he called out in a familiar tone, even though I didn't know him. "I wanted to congratulate you on the success of your project. I've long admired your hard work." I nodded and smiled politely. "Thank you. It means a lot to me." "Not only is your hard work admirable, but also the way you deal with challenges," he continued. "I see you at events like this all the time, and you always seem so strong and independent. Do you always come alone?" The question sounded innocent, but there was something about the way he said it that made me feel a little uneasy. "Yeah, I usually come alone. But I'm not really alone," I answered cautiously. The man smiled wider, his eyes shining with obvious interest. "You know, Kate, I've been watching you for the past two years. And I've never seen you with anyone. I couldn't help but ask..

Kate’s POV It’s been two years since that painful goodbye at the airport. Back then, I never imagined how my days would change. But here I am, standing at the grand opening party of a project I’ve worked so hard on. I can feel the admiring gazes of the guests, some of whom are warmly congratulating me, and others even offering to work with me on my next project. The long black dress I’m wearing tonight makes me feel elegant and dignified. I stand tall, looking around the room filled with entrepreneurs, investors, and colleagues who have all come to celebrate this success. But beneath the glitter and the praise, there’s a deep sense of relief. Not just because the project went perfectly, but because I’ve proven something to myself—that I can do it, that I can stand tall even when the world seems to be falling apart. I remember the long nights of hard work, the times when exhaustion almost overwhelmed me. But now, it all feels worth it. I’ve accomplished something greater than I e

Kate’s POV I nodded with a heavy heart, trying to hold back tears. “I believe in you, Erlan. I will wait and support you from here. Farewell, and may everything go well for you there.” As the time for the plane to depart grew closer, we stood there, hugging each other tightly. I felt a deep emptiness and sadness as I watched him prepare to leave. Every second felt like time was ticking away, and it felt like all the happiness that had ever existed was shrinking into deep sadness. “What about the two of us?” I asked, trying to distract myself from my sadness. “What are our plans after you leave?” Erlan smiled softly, though his eyes were filled with pain. “We will continue to communicate well. I will try to come home whenever I have the chance. We will continue to support and encourage each other. I am sure we will get through this.” We talked about our plans and tried to cheer each other up. We tried to keep our spirits up even though we were feeling so heavy. Erlan kept wiping a

Kate’s POVI stared at him with wide eyes, trying to absorb what he had just said. “But, this is a big offer, Erlan. Are you sure you want to take the job? Doesn’t that mean we have to have a long-distance relationship?”Erlan nodded, seemingly undeterred by the challenges that might come. “Yes, I am. I know this is not an easy decision, and there will definitely be many challenges. But I believe that if I accept this offer and prove myself abroad, it will give us great advantages in the future.”“Do you really want to do this?” I asked, my voice shaking slightly with emotion. “Are you ready to face all those challenges?”Erlan smiled softly, then took my hand. “Kate, I don’t just want to prove myself to your father. I also want to prove to myself that I can do something big and significant. And I want to do it while still loving you and fighting for our relationship.”I fell silent, trying to comprehend the big decision that Erlan had ju

Kate’s POV “You look really tired, Kate,” Erlan said as he opened the car door for me.“I am,” I admitted as I got into the car. “I had a lot on my mind today.”Erlan stared at me for a moment, as if considering his next words, then said, “I’m glad you said yes to my invitation. Let’s make tonight a little lighter, okay?”I nodded, grateful for his kindness.We arrived at a restaurant we had been to a few times before. The place was small, warm, and had a calming atmosphere. The waiter greeted us with a smile, and we were quickly seated at our favorite table in the corner.“How about I order for the two of us?” Erlan asked after seeing me staring blankly at the menu.“Go ahead,” I said with a weak smile. I knew he would order something I liked.After the waiter took our orders, Erlan looked at me intently. “How was your day, Kate? It seemed like something was bothering you.”I took a breath, feeling l

Kate's POV My phone vibrated on the table as I was enjoying a cup of coffee on a quiet morning. A message came in from Darwis. "Can we meet this afternoon? There's something important I want to talk about." I stared at the message with a slightly raised eyebrow. Why did Darwis suddenly want to meet? We had agreed to meet the day after tomorrow. But no suspicion crossed my mind. After all, our relationship was much better now—no drama, no pain that used to be between us. I took another sip of coffee and decided to reply briefly, "Sure." That afternoon, I arrived at the cafe we used to frequent. This place held many memories, but it didn't feel like it used to. Now, I come here more often with Erlan. The owner of the cafe recognized us and was used to our presence. I entered and saw Darwis already sitting at the table we used to occupy. When I approached, he turned and smiled. There was somethi
