Coming back from submitting my CV, I could hear my son's voice, he's clearly talking to someone. I step in, and find my son and his father on the coach. “Mum, Dad is here! He bought me a toy,” my son says excitedly, showing off his new toy. I’m confuse, I leave home few hours ago, only to return and find my husband, the same man who left my son and me and even blocked me. “Leo, what are you doing here?” Leo glances at me, his expression indifferent. “Are you asking why I’m in my own house?” “Do you think you can just play with our hearts? Show up whenever you feel like it and disappear when it suits you?” Leo shifts his attention to Simeon, gently ruffling his hair. “Simeon, could you go to your room for a bit? Your mum and I need to talk. ” Simeon nods, though he clearly wants to stay and listen. Reluctantly, he leaves for his room. “You saw my message, right?” Leo asks. “Yes, I saw it. But you must be joking. It has to be a cruel joke. Not after everything I’ve done for you,” I reply, my voice trembling. Leo's expression hardens. “Exactly. I’m tired of hearing that. ‘After everything I’ve done for you.’ I’ve had enough of this. I can’t pretend anymore. Marie, I don't love you, and I’m sick of being married to you.” “No! You can't mean that! You've been… pretending to love me?” I say, tears streaming down my face. He sighs. “Yes. And I know you saw my fiancée. You see how beautiful and put-together she is. She’s the one my heart has chosen. I’m here to confirm what I sent you. Marie, my lawyer will bring the divorce papers soon.” I struggle to talk, but words fails me, “Le….Leo” “You will find the man who will treasure you for you are. As for me, I am tired!” “What about Simeon? Didn't you know this will affect him. Now that you are leaving. Ebay do I do? I sold my successful company in order to invest in yours. You betrayed me, Leo… is this the life we both planned together?” “I never planned a life with you We never had any feelings for each-other before we got married..if you have any question, ask your family the one that took money from me, so I could marry you’ I can no longer control tears, they kept on flowing, “Simeon? What about Simeon? “Simeon will be fine. He's not the only one left by his father. I didn't leave him, I still care and I'll always love him. I'll continue to play a fatherly role” “Father's role? You stopped playing that a while ago. Even the our allowance, you stopped paying it. I have been out there looking for work, I regretted marrying you already” Leo's face tightens, but he doesn’t waver. “I didn’t force you into this. You made your choices, and I made mine. We both knew this wasn’t going to last.” “Leo, is this a business to you or? You married me, this isn't a contract marriage or a forced marriage” “Well, let me ask you a question?” “Question? What's that?” I asks curiously “Am I the one you intend to marry?” The question catches me off guard, as if Leo had just thrown a dagger straight into my heart. My breath hitches, and I try to gather my thoughts, but nothing makes sense.“What do you mean?” I manage to whisper, my voice cracking. “You heard me clearly, and I am not going to repeat myself. You never intended to marry me, and I am the convenient solution your family could provide for you” “N, Leo. I married you because I believe in us” “Enough! I am no longer interested in this, and that's final. Prepare to meet my lawyers” He says and leaves the house. I stand there,my heart pounding, feeling utterly lost. How have we ended up here? I didn't know my family had done this for me. I sit down in the coach, and my son's voice breaks down my thoughts. “Mum? Is Dad leaving again?” I quickly wipe my tears, forcing a smile as I hear his voice. “Yes, sweetheart. Dad had to go.” “Will he come back?” Simeon asks, his face falling. I kneel down, pulling him into a tight hug, my heart breaking for him. “I don’t know, baby. But I’m here. I’m always here for you” I hold him and I silently vow to protect him even when I feel like I am falling apart. Simon, is the only one I have and I have to protect him and to make sure all these doesn't affect him.

Depending on anyone else isn’t an option anymore I have heard about a place, a new company that is currently recruiting workers. With my CV in hand, I make my way there, “Good Morning, I am Marie. I want to apply for a job here. my…..” “You are welcome," Marie, the receptionist, says with a smile. “You can wait, let me call the CEO personal assistant” I nod, “No problem, I'll wait” “You can have your seat, I'll let you know what next” I sit down, hoping that everything will turn out well. Just then, I see a young pretty lady coming towards me. “Hello, you are Marie, right? I nod, “Yes, I am Marie” “You can follow me” she says.

Chapter Four Nolan's decision catches me off guard. “Marie, let me drive you home so I can get to know your house and importantly, meet your son” . I am uncertain how to respond, I hesitate for a moment before responding. "Okay... but why now?” “I want to meet your son, you call him..” “Simeon” I say, correcting him, softly. “His name is Simeon” . “Yes, Simeon” he says nodding, “Can we go now?” “Okay” We leave his office and head to where he parked his car. Nolan opens the car for me and I can’'t help but remember the good memories we had. I slip inside, while he walks around to the driver's seat and starts the engine. As the car hums to life and the city blurs past us, memories from our past flood my mind. There was a time when things were simpler, when it was just us, before the complications and the heartache. I glance at Nolan, wondering if he's thinking about the same things. “Nolan, do you mean you haven't been in any relationship since you left. You are acting s

Chapter Five Hearing that, Nolan prepares to leave, he stands at the doorway, resting his hand on the knob. He shifts his eyes from Simeon to me. The weight of the moment hangs in the air, thick, none of us have anything to say. “Nolan, I say, breaking the silence, “I know this is a lot, this is a lot to take in” He nods, he looks at Simeon again, his eyes furrowed deep. “Cutie, I wasn't expecting you to say this” he reveals, “You have given me choices to pick one. I really need some time to think about it, I'll get back to you” I nod “I understand l, Nolan, take your time. You don't need to rush things” . "Can I get your number? In case. I need to reach out later." We exchange numbers-the gesture feels empty, a bridge between us that might or might not be crossed. Nolan's gaze holds on mine, and for one fleeting instant, I think that he might say more, say something hopeful. But instead, he nods and turns to leave, the soft click of the door behind him. I am enclosed in sile

I start gathering my things to leave for my house.As I gather my things, I hear a knock at the door.“Come in,” I call, hoping it’s Nolan.The door opens, and to my surprise, Nolan steps inside. There’s a determined look on his face that makes my heart race.“Are you going home?” he asks.I nod, not looking at his face. “Is there anything you would like to tell me? I am heading home”He looks at me keenly, “No, I am not sure” he says, “Can I take you home?”“Take me home?” I blurt out, incredulous. “Do you think I am a fool or who do you think I am?” I say patiently. “You see I am trying to be calm, I need you to tell me everything going on?” “What's that?” He asks, pretending not to know what I am talking about.But Nolan's face is impassive, unreadable-but I can see a flicker of something, way deep behind his eyes. It's something he's desperately trying to push down.”Stop pretending, you know what I am talkin

I plan to rest before thinking of the next step to take.As I step to the living room, I see a man in a crisp suit.“Good evening, Mrs. Marie,” he says, his voice cold, formal. I already know what this is. My heart pounds in my chest, but I force myself to stay calm.I remain silent.“I am here on behalf of Mr. Leo” he continues, “These are the divorce papers” he says, bringing out an envelope from his bag. “You can review and sign at your earliest convenience_Divorce.

Chapter TenI am about to sleep when a message pops up on my phone. It’s a message from an unknown number.‘If you really want to know what Nolan is hiding, come to Nueva Hotel and Suites.’My heart is pounding as I reread the message in my head. An ice-cold feeling creeps at the back of my neck. What is it? What are they aware of? I almost block whatever this is out. But the memories of Nolan and the need to know what this is about prevent me from doing so.I remove the sheets and get out of bed, my brain coming alive. I cannot turn a blind eye to this. If there is even a slight hope of finding out the truth about Nolan’s issue, I need to seize the opportunity. I reach for my phone and start looking for Nolan’s contact, but give up after a while. What if he was guilty about this too? I cannot afford to warn him. I have to do this by myself.I hurriedly put on clothes, put on a coat and shoes. As I drive towards Nueva Hotel and Suites, the air is chilly, and the places are poorly i

Lost And Found Hearts Moments Of Stillness
Chapter 132She balled her fists into the material of her dress as the confrontation's weight settled firmly onto her shoulders. She kept staring at the door, her heart clutched in her chest. The accusations and disdain from Nolan's family reverberated loudly in her ears, louder than the silence that greeted them after their dramatic exit.Nolan's voice cut through her spiraling thoughts. "Don't let them get to you," he said, his tone softer now, though a residual edge of anger lingered. He stepped closer to her, his hand brushing against her arm, but Elena pulled back instinctively, the tension still too raw."How can I not?" she replied, her voice trembling. "They practically blamed me for everything—for Marie, for Marcus, for… for you not being the son or brother they want anymore.""They don't know what they're talking about," Nolan said firmly, his expression hardening again. "Marie is my past. You're my present. They'll just have to deal with it."Elena shook her head. Her throa
Lost And Found Hearts Tension
Chapter 131Nolan and Elena share a brief, weighted glance; then he turns to head back to the living room. Elena hesitates, her heart still racing from the tension, but she follows him, her footsteps quieter than usual.As they re-enter the room, Marcus is lounging exactly as they left him, eyes still half-closed as if he's genuinely relaxed, but the edge in his smirk is unmistakable. He's playing a dangerous game, and Nolan's not sure if he's the pawn or the one pulling the strings."Enjoying yourself?" Nolan asks, voice cold and sharp as he stands at the threshold.Marcus raises an eyebrow, makes a languid rise to sitting, tossing the magazine aside. "Just getting comfortable," he says-casually enough, but the challenge in his eyes is undiminished. "Isn't that what guests are supposed to do?"Don't mistake me for one who plays by the rules of hospitality," Nolan responds, not batting an eyelash. He steps closer to him, standing right in front of Marcus. "You're here on borrowed time

Chapter 130“You'll regret it. And trust me, Marcus, I don't make idle threats."The room seems to grow colder as Nolan's words hang in the air. Marcus holds his hands up in mock surrender, though the defiance in his smirk doesn't quite fade. "Alright, alright," he says lightly. "Message received, loud and clear. I'll be on my best behavior, promise."Good," Nolan snaps; there is no room for an argument. He steps back, his body a wall of silent warning, as he moves to stand beside Elena. She shifts uncomfortably under the weight of the tension, her fingers curling around the hem of her sweater.Marcus throws a glance between them, the corners of his lips twitching as if to hold back a comment. Finally, he leans against the couch and picks up the magazine again, an act of pretend indolence. "Three days it is, then," he murmurs, flipping a page. "Should be plenty of time.Nolan narrows his eyes but says nothing, turning to Elena instead. "Let's go," he says softly, his voice low enough
Lost And Found Hearts Uninvited Guest
Uninvited GuestNolan and Elena back into the living room, their hands briefly touching, as if for reassurance. The tension between them in the air is palpable, but the look smoldering in Nolan's eyes indicates that he wasn't done with this just yet.Marcus is sprawled out on the couch, crossing his legs, an arm cast indolently over the back of the couch as he seems to exude superiority. He looks up; the smirk widens across his face, for all intents and purposes, he has just won some silent battle.Nolan's jaw clenches, but then, in one swift movement, a sly spreads across his face. He strides forward, his voice dripping with mock politeness. "Ah, my in-law," he says, articulating the words as if Elena's eyes must roll out of her head. "I hope you're feeling right at home?"Marcus' eyebrow lifts, partially taken aback by Nolan's tone, still smug, nonetheless. "I'm doing just fine, thanks."Nolan nods, pacing languidly in front of the couch. "That's great. My in-law, can I get you some
Lost And Found Hearts The Uninvited Guest
Chapter 128: Uninvited GuestMorning sun peeks through the apartment, casting a golden glimmer in the cozy living room as Elena and Nolan sat with the rare peace that finally rested between them. For the first time in weeks, the air felt light, the tension that had once gripped them now a distant memory. Nolan leans in, a playful smile on his face, and steals a kiss from Elena, who laughs softly and dodges, teasing him with a mischievous look."You missed," she teases, her voice lilting with false arrogance.Nolan chuckles, tugging her closer. "Did I? Let me try again."Their lips meet this time in a long, languorous kiss, and for a moment, everything is just right with the world. The world outside doesn't matter.Elena pulls back an inch, her fingers tracing the line of his jaw. "I missed this," she whispers. "Us. Without all the chaos."Nolan brushes a strand of hair from her face, his gaze tender. "It's not over yet, but I promise you-nothing will ever come between us again.They
Lost And Found Hearts The Breaking Point
Chapter 127 :The Breaking PointThere is an almost palpable sense of tension in the apartment. Nolan sits at the dining table, his head in his hands, while Marie stands across the room, watching him like a predator stalking its prey. A knowing smile curls her lips, as if she's already won.Marie steps closer, her heels clicking against the hardwood floor. "You can't keep ignoring me forever, Nolan," she says softly, her voice dripping with false sweetness. "We both know you still have a soft spot for me. Why else would you let me stay here?Nolan's head jerks up, his jaw clenched. "Don't flatter yourself, Marie. You're only here because my mother forced this on me. If it were up to me, you'd already be gone."Marie pouts dramatically, her eyes shimmering with crocodile tears. "Oh, Nolan. Is it really that hard for you to admit that we had something special? Something worth saving?Nolan bangs his fist onto the table and jolts her. "We had something, Marie. Past tense. You destroyed it
Lost And Found Hearts Marie’s Plan
Chapter 126The soft creak of the front door echoes faintly through the quiet house, signaling Elena's return. She had only been gone an hour, a quick trip to pick up groceries. As she steps into the hallway, the faint murmur of voices carries to her ears and stops her in her tracks. She recognizes Nolan's voice, low and steady, but there's another one, softer and pleading-Marie.Elena's heart clutches. What could they be talking about now? She sets the grocery bags on the kitchen counter and pads silently down the hall, the carpet muffling her footsteps.In the living room, Marie stiffens at the faint noise of the door opening. Her ears perk up, and her sharp gaze darts to Nolan, who is seated a few feet away from her on the couch, his expression unreadable. Instinct takes over. She rises swiftly and moves toward him, feigning vulnerability as she practically throws herself onto the couch beside him.Her hands claw at his arm, and she presses herself close, her voice shaking. "Nolan,
Lost And Found Hearts A Plea For The Past
Chapter 125: A Plea for the PastThe door latched shut behind Elena and, with that, everything seemed to come to rest in a pool of discomfort. Nolan stood by the window and watched her figure descend the street. The strain didn't let go of his shoulders even after she turned and vanished out of his line of vision into quiet suburban anonymity.He turned around, ready to plunge into something—anything—that would take his mind off the growing unease in the house. But he couldn't escape it. Marie was leaning against the counter, her arms folded across her chest, standing in the kitchen with an unreadable expression on her face."Nolan," she said softly, breaking the silence. The edge was off her voice, and for a moment, he almost didn't recognize it.He stiffened, already sensing the direction this conversation might take. "What is it, Marie?" he asked, his tone curt as he walked past her toward the dining table."I want to talk," she replied, stepping away from the counter.Nolan sighed
Lost And Found Hearts Peace
Chapter 124As Nolan's mother and sister leave, Nolan and Elena are left standing in the living room, looking at each other in shock."Well, that was fun," Elena says sarcastically, breaking the silence.Nolan shakes his head. "I'm so sorry, Elena. I had no idea they were going to do that."Elena takes a step closer to him. "It's not your fault, Nolan. We'll figure this out together."Nolan nods, feeling a surge of gratitude towards Elena. "We will. I promise."As they hug, Nolan can't help but feel a sense of unease. He knows that his family is not going to give up easily, and he's worried about what they might do next.But for now, he's just grateful to have Elena by his side."What do you say we order some pizza and try to forget about this for a while?" Nolan suggests.Elena smiles. "Sounds like a plan to me."As they sit down on the couch, Nolan can't help but feel a sense of hope. Maybe, just maybe, they can make this work.But as they're waiting for the pizza to arrive, Nolan's
