At Nico's apartment

Nico's cell phone vibrated on the small table in front of him. He immediately grabbed it when he saw Celine's name on the screen. "Hello?"

"Nico," Celine's voice sounded firm, though a little hurried. "Can you go to the hospital now? Calvin keeps looking for you. He's starting to run a fever again, probably from too much stress."

Nico stood up immediately. "I'll be there now."

Before he could grab his jacket, his mother sitting on the sofa gave him a sharp look. "Wait a minute, Nico."

"I don't have time, Mom," Nico replied quickly, but his mother was already standing and blocking his way.

"This is your chance," his mother said in a low, stressful voice. "Celine asked you to go there. She needs you. Use this to make her see that you can still be her savior."

Nico sighed loudly, frustrated. "This isn't about me or Celine, Mom. This is about Calvin. That boy is sick!"

"Exactly," his mother replied quickly, her eyes narrowing. "And who's there for Calvin?

    In the Hospital CorridorAfter making sure Calvin was fast asleep, Nico and Celine stood facing each other outside the room. The corridor was quiet, only the sound of the hospital staff's steps could be heard occasionally passing by. "Celine," Nico began, his voice low, almost a whisper. "I want to talk about something important." Celine looked at him with a flat expression. "What else, Nico?" Nico bowed his head, trying to string together the right words. "I know I'm nothing now. Everything I used to have, it's all gone. I lost everything, including you. And it's my fault." Celine remained silent, waiting for what Nico would say next. "But I don't want to continue like this," Nico continued, his voice starting to sound more determined. "I want to get back on my feet, Celine. I want to work, build my career from scratch. I want to be able to stand on my own feet, without having to rely on anyone." "So?" asked Celine briefly, her eyes narrowed, trying to read Nico's intenti

    Morning at the HospitalAll night, Celine couldn't sleep. Nico's words kept ringing in her mind. She knew Nico had made many mistakes in the past, but his earnestness that night felt different. There was an honesty in the man's gaze that she found hard to ignore. As the sun began to rise, Celine finally decided on something. She picked up her cell phone and typed a short message to Devano. [Meet me at the office this morning. We need to talk]-Celine's Office Devano knocked politely on Celine's office door, then entered after being invited. The man wore a neat suit as usual, his face calm yet thoughtful. "Is there anything I need to do, ma'am?" asked Devano, sitting in the chair in front of Celine's desk. Celine looked at her faithful assistant, then sighed softly. "I need you to open access for Nico." Devano raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised. "Open access? By that you mean, removing his name from the blacklist of companies in this city?" Celine nodded. "Yes. She s

    In the Interview RoomNico sat nervously in front of three interviewers. They were carefully examining his CV. Despite being well-dressed and prepared, Nico felt small under their piercing gazes. "So, Mr. Nico," one of the interviewers, a middle-aged man with thick glasses, began, "you have quite a bit of experience as an operations manager, but we also noticed a long gap in your career. Can you explain why?" Nico took a deep breath. He knew this question would come up. "I had some personal issues that impacted my career. But I've resolved them all, and now I'm ready to start over from scratch. I want to prove myself that I am still capable of making a great contribution." A female interviewer with short hair notes something in her notebook. "Can you give us an example, Mr. Nico, of your strategy to improve efficiency in the operations team, based on your previous experience?" Nico smiled slightly, feeling a little more confident.

  • Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Yes, for Calvin

    Nico stood in front of Celine's door with his heart pounding. He was carrying a bag containing a small gift for Calvin-the boy's favorite toy. Even though he had come to this house several times before, the atmosphere always felt familiar to him. This time, he came with a new determination: not only for Calvin, but also to change Celine's view of him. As soon as the door opened, the sound of small footsteps could be heard. Calvin ran from the living room, his face beaming when he saw Nico. "Daddy!" he exclaimed cheerfully, then immediately jumped into Nico's arms. "Calvin!" Nico greeted him with a big smile, hugging the boy tightly. "How are you, son? Daddy really misses you." "I miss you too, Daddy!" Calvin tightened his hug, then his eyes lit up when he saw the bag in Nico's hand. "What did Daddy bring?" "This is for Calvin," Nico said as he opened the bag and took out a bright blue toy car. "Wow!" Calvin immediately cheered, taking the toy eagerly. "Thank you, Daddy!" A

    The living room lights were still on even though it was past midnight. Nico sat on the sofa, laptop on his lap, a serious look on his face. He was reviewing reports and presentations for a new project at work. Although he is tired, there is a burning passion in his heart. He wants to prove to himself - and to Celine - that he can rise to the occasion. As he was typing, he heard soft steps coming from the kitchen. Nico lifted his head and saw Celine walking slowly with a sleepy face. Her slightly messy hair made her look different from usual, more relaxed, more human. Celine did not notice Nico's presence in the living room. She went straight to the kitchen to get a glass of mineral water. After pouring the water into the glass, she turned around with a slightly hurried step. But suddenly, she winced in pain. "Ouch!" Celine exclaimed softly. Her leg was sprained and her body lost its balance. Nico, who was watching from the sofa, immediately reflexively moved. Within seconds, h

    That morning, the house was busy as usual. Celine was already preparing to return to the office after spending a few days at home for Calvin. She wore an elegant black blazer suit, showing the aura of a firm and confident CEO. Meanwhile, Nico was also preparing to leave for his office. "Is Calvin awake?" asked Celine as she descended the stairs. The nanny standing near the kitchen replied, "Yes, ma'am. He's having breakfast." "Good. Take good care of him, I might be home a bit late," Celine said firmly before taking her handbag. Nico, who was standing at the door holding the car keys, looked at Celine for a while. "I can take you to the office if you want. My car is empty," he offered in a casual tone, although inwardly he felt a distance between them. Celine looked at him for a moment, hesitating. However, remembering that this was a contract marriage and they did have to look harmonious for Calvin's sake, she nodded. "Alright. But hurry, I don't want to be late." The rid

    Celine was focusing on the presentation she had to deliver next week when the door to her room suddenly opened without a knock. She lifted her face, her eyebrows raised as a middle-aged woman walked in with a confident stride. "Mom?" Celine could hardly believe it. Her former mother-in-law, Maria, stood there with that stern expression she knew so well. Maria smiled faintly, although her eyes seemed full of determination. "Celine, we need to talk. This is important." Celine immediately stood up, slamming the document in her hand onto the table. "What are you doing here? This is my office, and you weren't invited." Maria stepped closer, ignoring Celine's anger. "I came because of Nico. Because of you. And because of Calvin." "If this is about Nico, I'm not interested in hearing about it," Celine cut in coldly. "And I don't have time for this chat. Please leave before I call security." However, Maria did not budge. The woman approached Celine's table, looking at her sharply.

    Celine stood in front of the bathroom mirror, staring at her still-flushed face. She covered her face with both hands, trying to calm herself down. "What have I done?!" she whispered emotionally. She hit the wall lightly, frustrated. "How could I be that weak? Why did I let him touch me again? " She shook her head, trying to erase the memory of the night before. But the image of Nico and the warmth he felt were too hard to forget. After a few minutes of silence, she took a deep breath, trying to control herself. "Focus, Celine. Don't let your feelings ruin everything," she muttered as she stared at her reflection. When she finally came out of the room, the house was quiet. She thought Nico was still in the room, but the place where he slept on the floor was empty. "Nico?" she called softly, but there was no answer. With cautious steps, she descended the stairs. The sound of Calvin's chuckle came from one of the rooms, making Celine follow the direction of the sound. When s

    2 AMIn the stillness of the night, Nico was awakened by a soft voice. He saw Celine shivering in bed, her face looking pale and wet with cold sweat. Without thinking, Nico immediately got up from his place on the floor and approached the bed. "Celine," he called softly as he touched her forehead. Her temperature was high, clearly she had a fever. Celine opened her eyes slowly, her voice trembling. "Nico... I'm cold..." Without hesitation, Nico took a thick blanket and wrapped it around Celine's body, then turned on the table lamp to see her condition more clearly. Celine continued to shiver, her lips looking bluish. Nico immediately looked for a way to make her warmer. "Celine, I'll help you. Relax, I'm here," Nico said softly. He sat on the side of the bed and tried to hug Celine's cold body. At first, Celine tried to resist, pushing Nico's chest weakly. "Nico... don't...," she whispered. However, Nico still hugged her tightly. "Celine, you need warmth. Please, don't be

    Celine opened the mansion door slowly, the clock read a little over eleven o'clock. Her high heels made a soft tapping sound on the marble floor, filling the silence of the dark house. The lights in the living room were still on, and there, Nico was seen sleeping on the sofa in an uncomfortable position. His head drooped to the side, his hand still holding the cell phone with the screen off. Celine paused for a moment, observing Nico's face that looked peaceful in his sleep. That face had not changed much since the last time she fell in love with him. But now, that love felt tightly wrapped by the layers of ego and heartache that he continued to nurture. Slightly annoyed, she stepped towards the stairs, trying not to wake Nico. But the sound of his steps was apparently enough to wake the man up. Nico opened his eyes slowly, then immediately got up. "Celine?" called Nico, his voice hoarse and tired. "You just got home?" Celine only gave him a quick glance without answering, the
