My husband's true love and I are trapped when a fire breaks out. He's a firefighter—when he arrives on scene, he chooses to save her without hesitation. I barely make it out alive. Once I do, I demand a divorce. He doesn't understand why. He asks, "Why do you want to divorce me? Because I didn't save you first?" I angrily throw the divorce agreement in his face. "Yes, that's exactly why! Because you chose to save your old flame when she was further from you!"

Flames of Regret Chapter 12
Benedict lay quietly in bed, his body wrapped in bandages, gazing out the window. The moment he saw me, the stillness in his eyes rippled with emotion. "Ophelia, you're here, I—"I cut him off before he could get too excited, nodding coolly, "You're injured. Stay still."His face lit up with joy. "You still care about me! I knew it—you still have feelings for me."Ophelia, I know I was wrong. Can you forgive me for this once? I swear, from now on, I'll be devoted to you. There will be no one else—only you in my heart, my eyes, and my life!"I corrected him calmly, "Don't flatter yourself. That was nothing more than the basic concern any person would have for an injured firefighter. If you hadn't been hurt on duty and if your coworkers hadn't kept pestering Anwen, I wouldn't have even bothered about you."Benedict stiffened, murmuring, "You really won't forgive me? I'll do anything for you!"I smirked. "How about I go have a child with someone else, and you play the fool again?"
Flames of Regret Chapter 11
"Given birth at full term?" I was stunned.Did that mean Benedict had been played for a fool?Anwen's laughter rang through the phone. "No need for a paternity test. Everyone already knows that kid isn't his. Celestine gave birth to a tan-skinned baby!"I tried to hold it in, but I couldn't help bursting into laughter.So, Benedict threw me—his wife—away to reunite with his first love, only to end up raising another man's child? This had to be the funniest thing I had heard all year. I couldn't wait to see the look on his face.Anwen filled me in on what happened next.The moment the baby was born, Benedict lost his mind. He didn't even wait for Celestine to be discharged before filing for divorce.Normally, a wife couldn't be divorced while she was still nursing, but since the baby clearly wasn't his, the court accepted the case.Still, it wouldn't be settled anytime soon.Benedict couldn't handle the humiliation of being a cuckold, so he started avoiding home altogether.Me
Flames of Regret Chapter 10
Months had passed since I last heard that name. For a moment, I was dazed—not out of sorrow, but as if it belonged to a different lifetime.I said, "You know, I haven't contacted him since I changed my number."Anwen smirked, clearly enjoying the drama. "After you warned Celestine, Benedict stopped messaging me. But a few days ago, out of nowhere, he showed up at my law firm asking about you. The moment I saw him, I knew he was up to no good, so I played dumb. But he just wouldn't leave."Then, guess what? Celestine—very pregnant, by the way—stormed in looking for him. The two of them started arguing right in front of everyone. One accused the other of still being hung up on his ex-wife, while the other called her paranoid and unreasonable. It was a complete mess."Honestly, I think there's something seriously wrong with both of them. He cheats while being married to you and finally gets together with his so-called first love, yet he keeps looking for you. "And then there's Celes

When Anwen found out, she couldn't hold back and hugged me tightly, crying, "Is it because of that bastard Benedict? Is he harassing you again? Is that why you want to leave the country?"Don't be afraid. Just tell me, and I'll gather my mentors and senior colleagues. We'll form a legal team and sue him!"I couldn't help but laugh through my tears and reassured her, "It has nothing to do with him. I just realized if I want to be a great food blogger, I can't limit myself to the cuisine within my immediate surroundings."I want to explore different cultures, broaden my experiences, and create dishes that will make people truly crave them."Who knows? Maybe by the time I come back, I'll be a prestigious chef!"Hearing my reasoning, Anwen finally gave up trying to persuade me to stay."Fine. Since this is your choice, I won't stop you from chasing your dreams, but you have to stay safe. You have to check in with me every day, or I'll call the police to track you down!"I promised h

Anwen sighed and took another sip of wine before saying, "Opie, didn't you change your phone number? You have no idea. He's been texting me nonstop every single day. It's driving me insane."She rolled her eyes and imitated in a dramatic tone, "'It's getting colder today, so remind Ophelia to dress warmly.' "'It might rain later, make sure she brings an umbrella,' "Like, seriously? Does he think he's some tragic, lovesick hero? Who's he trying to disgust?"I blocked him, and guess what? He just got a new number and kept texting me. It's so damn annoying! If I didn't have so many clients who needed to reach me, I'd have changed my own number by now."I was so furious that I nearly threw my utensils across the room. That bastard—what a pathetic piece of trash!Taking a deep breath to steady myself, I asked, "Anwen, do you still have the messages Benedict sent you? Can I see them?"Drunkenly, Anwen handed me her phone. "Look. They're all here. I'm a lawyer, remember? If you want

Not caring that we were in a public place, I doubled over and vomited. Disgusting! Absolutely disgusting!I had never imagined that beneath his polished and respectable exterior lay something so vile it made me sick to my stomach. Today, I finally saw his true colors.Wiping my mouth, I snapped, "Cut the nonsense and sign the papers!"Benedict wiped his face, frustration written all over him. "Ophelia, I know you hate me, but the child is innocent. You can't let an unborn baby grow up without a father. I never wanted to divorce you, but now that the baby is here, what do you expect me to do?"Even a beast wouldn't abandon its own offspring. Do you really want me to force Cece to get rid of it?"I was beyond exhausted, and it was all his fault. He was the one who had an affair with Celestine while we were still married—the one who chose his so-called first love over me. I had already stepped back, yet he kept dragging this out.Did he do this because he loved me? Obviously not
Flames of Regret Chapter 6
Not wanting to drag things out, I took out my phone. "Bank transfer or Venmo? Pick one."Celestine's eyes burned with fury, but she held it in and pulled out her phone.I supposed it was natural for me to lose to Celestine who had such a level of forbearance.But before she could make the transfer, Benedict beat her to it, sending the money himself."I'll pay. Just stop bothering Cece."I exchanged a glance with Anwen, who promptly pulled out a divorce agreement."Sign it. Once you do, your dear Cece can finally take my place."Benedict froze, staring at the document for a moment before finally speaking in disbelief, "You really want a divorce? Are you serious?"I scoffed. "Any woman who catches her husband fooling around at home would ask for a divorce."His face stiffened. He didn't respond immediately, as if struggling with something."I refuse. I won't divorce you, Ophelia. Don't overthink things. It's not what you think. You're misunderstanding everything."A lot of men

Just as we were about to leave, Benedict returned with Celestine.The four of us met at the doorway in an awkward standoff.Benedict instinctively asked, "Why are you here?"Celestine leaned weakly against him, her tone a mix of apology and provocation. "Ophelia, I didn't know you were coming. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dragged Benedict out to have fun."She thought her little act would provoke me into losing my temper.If I exploded in anger while she played the pitiful victim, it was obvious who Benedict would side with.Did it hurt? Of course. Saying it didn't would be a lie.After being married to Benedict for three years, I couldn't help but feel something for him. Even if you raised a pet for that long, you would develop an attachment—let alone a husband.But was it unbearable pain? Not really, in fact.After all, pain faded with time.During my hospital stay, I had spent countless sleepless nights, lost chunks of hair, and cried more tears than I could count. By now, I

"Are you kidding me? You two aren't even divorced yet, and he is already this desperate?" Anwen exclaimed.Scattered across the couch and carpet were various pieces of women's clothing. The trash bin was overflowing with crumpled tissues.It didn't take a genius to figure out what had happened—Benedict had brought Celestine here for their little escapade.Even though I had already given up on him, seeing this scene still hurt.This was my home, too. The thought of Celestine invading a place filled with memories of my marriage felt like a knife twisting in my heart. Clenching my fists tightly, I made my way to the bedroom.Just as I expected, the place was a disaster—ransacked as if a gang of bandits had stormed through.My clothes had been shredded. My makeup on the vanity had been mostly used up. The jewelry in my closet was nearly gone, too.But the worst part? The couple's rings Benedict had given me before our wedding. The once-beautiful engravings had been scrapped and di

Chapter 1
Lying in a hospital bed, I brought up divorce to Benedict Langley.Rubbing his temples in exhaustion, he sounded impatient. "I was up all night dealing with the fire in Norham and just lay down to rest, yet you drag me here for this? Is this some kind of joke?"Ignoring his irritation, I coldly took out the divorce papers. "I'm not joking. Let's get divorced. You bought the house in full before marriage—I'm not asking for it. The car is mine, so I'll take it. As for the money we earned after marriage, we split it 50-50. You don't have any objections, do you?"Seeing that I wasn't joking, Benedict finally took me seriously. "Why are you divorcing me? Is it because I saved Cece first?At those words, the fury I had been suppressing finally erupted.Benedict was a firefighter. A week ago, I ran into Celestine Aldridge at the supermarket while shopping. Back then, I naively thought she and Benedict were nothing more than former classmates, so I stopped to chat with her for a bit.B...
