Moving On Without You Chapter 26
If this had been in the past, Nick's words might have deeply moved Mia. But now, her heart was indifferent. She felt absolutely nothing.“Do whatever you want,” she said coldly before turning and walking away. True to his word, Nick began pursuing Mia with relentless determination. He sent her bouquets of roses every day and frequently delivered extravagant gifts—jewelry, designer goods, anything he thought might win her over. But the flowers were left unclaimed, and the gifts were all returned. Even so, Nick refused to give up. When gifts failed, he resorted to dramatic gestures. On a snowy night, he stood outside her apartment building, holding up a speaker blasting love songs, his lips turning blue from the cold. And Mia? She calmly closed the window. Meanwhile, Mia continued dating James. Nick often caught sight of her getting into James’s car, sharing candlelit dinners, or watching movies together. Some nights, she didn’t even return home, staying instead

After quietly listening to everything Nick had to say, Mia responded calmly, her tone steady but firm. “Nick, we’re divorced. There’s no way I’m going back with you.“My feelings for you were completely worn down by your constant neglect and mistreatment. I stopped loving you a long time ago. So, go back by yourself. I don’t need you in my life anymore, and I won’t be a part of yours.”Her simple yet resolute words shattered Nick completely. His eyes burned with desperation. “No! Divorce? I don’t agree!” he shouted, his voice raw. “That divorce agreement was a trick. You made me sign it without even letting me read it!“It doesn’t count! We’re still married! You can’t leave me! You can’t!” Nick spiraled into madness, gripping Mia’s arm with frenzied force, yelling like a man possessed. Mia struggled against him, but his grip was unrelenting. Suddenly, he dragged her toward his car, intent on forcing her inside. Just as things were about to take a dangerous turn, a tall, com

James, naturally concerned, wasn’t comfortable letting Mia go alone. “I’ll take you home,” he offered, standing up alongside her.“There’s no need!” Mia quickly refused, her voice flustered. “I… I’ll manage on my own.”Although their relationship had not been officially defined, the number of dates they had gone on would definitely be considered dating back in her home country. Mia had no interest in dealing with the drama of a confrontation between her ex and her potential new partner!Despite James insisting on accompanying her, Mia stood her ground. Eventually, she hailed a cab and went home alone.As Mia stepped out of the car, her eyes immediately landed on Nick, standing under the streetlight, quietly smoking a cigarette.Nick saw her almost at the same moment. His face lit up with excitement, and he called out, “Mia!”Dropping the cigarette he hadn’t finished, Nick rushed toward her. He wrapped her in a tight embrace, his voice trembling with emotion. “Thank God… Thank

After arriving in Merika, Nick wasted no time locating the venue where Mia’s art exhibition had been held. From there, he went store by store along the street, asking anyone who might know her whereabouts. By nightfall, his persistence paid off. Someone finally provided him with Mia’s current address.Grateful beyond words, Nick wasted no time heading to the address. He had imagined Mia, alone in a foreign country, living in a rundown apartment. But when he arrived, he was stunned to find an opulent mansion in an upscale neighborhood. A property of this caliber in such a location must have cost millions.“How could Mia afford to live in a place like this?” Nick frowned, unsure if he had the right address. Despite his doubts, he knocked on the door.It was Zoe who answered. She hadn’t met Nick before, so her initial demeanor was friendly. “Hello, can I help you?”“I’m looking for Erin Ivano,” Nick replied. “Her name is Mia Larson. I heard she lives here.”“Oh, you’re a friend of

During the months Mia had been missing, Nick was consumed by his desperate search for her. A workaholic who once valued the Ford Corporation more than his own life, he had now abandoned the company entirely, throwing himself into an obsessive quest to find her. His fixation on Mia bordered on madness. No amount of reasoning could dissuade him, nor did his parents' scolding deter him. He no longer cared about anything or anyone else. He just wanted to see Mia again, even if only for a moment. Ironically, Nick had always despised art, particularly painting. His disdain stemmed from Xena's marriage to a foreign artist years ago. But after learning that Mia had majored in fine arts in college, his aversion disappeared. He began to immerse himself in art-related news, hoping to learn more about the subject. His aim was simple. When he found Mia, he wanted to show her he had made an effort to understand and embrace what she loved. “Mia, today marks the 151st day since you left. W

Mia’s art exhibition was a resounding success. On the day of the event, the gallery was bustling with socialites and prominent figures. Zoe had also invited several media outlets to cover the event and create a buzz. As a result, the exhibition quickly made its way into the arts sections of major news platforms. One journalist even described Mia as “a rising star in the art world.”“That journalist is spot on!” Zoe exclaimed as she scrolled through her phone, reading the glowing reviews. She turned to Mia with pride written all over her face. “Our Mia is so talented! Every painting is vivid and deeply moving. You really are a rising star in the art world.”Mia couldn’t help but laugh, though she felt a little overwhelmed by the praise.It seemed like a cultural difference. In this country, people rarely criticized children. Instead, they lavished them with praise, even when they made mistakes. Parents here would start by acknowledging their child’s bravery or honesty before gent

The art exhibition was a resounding success. Mia showcased 51 paintings, and by the end of the first day, 33 had already been sold. Most fetched prices between $10,000 and $50,000, but the five purchased by James were in a league of their own, with each selling for an astounding $500,000.“Can you believe James paid ten times the price for your paintings?” Zoe teased Mia as she tallied up the exhibition's income and expenses that evening. “Mia, do you think he’s interested in you?”“Of course not.” Mia, completely focused on the financials, brushed off the remark without a second thought. “He’s probably just a flirt who can’t resist sweet-talking young women.”Zoe’s eyes widened in disbelief, her expression completely shocked. “Are you kidding me? James is practically legendary in his circles as the unattainable ideal. His personal life is spotless. He’s never been linked to questionable women, and he never brings a date to any major events.”“Really?” Mia finally looked up from

Mia was momentarily stunned. She had assumed James to be the type of aloof, stoic businessman who rarely cracked a smile. She hadn’t expected that he actually had a sense of humor.“Then should I thank you for complimenting me earlier?” Mia couldn't help but chuckle. Seeing her smile, James's brows lifted slightly, a faint grin spreading across his face. “You finally smiled.”Mia froze for a moment, her cheeks warming with a light blush. “I... I thought I’d been smiling all along.”She had maintained a polite smile ever since Zoe had introduced her. A smile was the most basic social courtesy, something she had learned despite her modest upbringing and limited interactions with high society.“You were,” James replied, his deep gaze fixed on hers, carrying a faint warmth. “But that was just a polite smile. Now, this is a genuine, happy smile.” Mia’s heart fluttered at his words. How strange. They had only just met, yet it felt as though he could see through her every expressi

James Hawthorne had purchased five of Mia’s paintings at the impressive price of half a million dollars each. With such a significant patron, it was only right for Mia to personally thank him.Accompanied by Zoe, Mia approached James.“Mr. Hawthorne, it’s been a while,” Zoe greeted him warmly, clearly familiar with the man. “I never expected someone as busy as you to take time out of your day to support my niece.”James offered a faint smile. “It just so happens I had the day off.”Zoe gestured toward Mia with pride. “This is my niece, Mia Larson. She’s an exceptionally talented artist, and all the pieces in this exhibition were created by her.”Mia blushed at the praise and spoke modestly. “Aunt Zoe, you’re exaggerating. I just paint whatever comes to mind.”“You have remarkable talent,” James said, turning slightly to gaze at a landscape painting behind him. His voice carried a calm authority as he remarked, “Take this one, for example. Though it depicts mountains and uses warm

Chapter 1
After her mother's funeral, Mia Larson received a call from her aunt, Zoe Larson. “Mia, your mom is gone now. I can’t stop worrying about you staying alone in the country. Why don’t you come abroad and live with me?” Mia remained silent for a long time, as though she was making a monumental decision. Finally, she solemnly answered, “Alright.” “Really? You’re willing to come? That’s wonderful!” Zoe’s voice on the other end was filled with joy. “But I heard you got married. Will your husband agree to move abroad with you?” Mia chuckled at the question. “Don’t worry. We’re about to get divorced.” Before the call ended, a commotion sounded from outside the door. Nick Ford was back. Mia glanced toward the door but didn’t get up to greet him like she usually did. Just then, Nick’s younger sister, Jenna Ford, strutted in, her face full of smugness. “Nick brought Xena back. You, the imposter, will be kicked out soon!” Mia frowned slightly. “Imposter?” Jenna looked ...
