Roseanne asked, "Is everything okay?" She noticed his annoyed expression, but he covered it with his usual smile. She understood he wouldn't share what happened with Sabrina. Something seemed off, especially since Sabrina didn't look well either."Yes," Nicholas replied with a smile. "Everything's good. What's bothering you?"Despite his reassurance, Roseanne felt uneasy. She debated probing further but decided against it, not wanting to worsen the situation. His question triggered Roseanne's realization that things weren't right on her end either. She confessed, "Oh, it's just cafe things. I'm badly needed there. They messed up with taxes and can't handle such a normal issue."In truth, it had started as a simple matter, but due to her staff's negligence, it escalated into a serious problem. Now, she had to accompany her lawyer to the government office to prevent her cafe from being sealed under the accusation of tax evasion.Nicholas responded incredulously, "You're really going to

The wedding ended. Emery left with her husband for their honeymoon. Only a few guests and the Hart family were left there. A car stopped outside the venue, and Mr Taylor came out. Her red heels rattled against the floor as she marched inside the church. A frown was marring her perfect face. She stopped at one point and looked at everyone in the crowd. Her eyes were trying to find Sabrina, but since she wasn't seeing her stepdaughter, her eyes kept wandering. At one point, it stopped at Roseanne, who was talking to Nicholas, and he was listening to her while Coco was trying to pull his arm. Nicholas leaned down to hear what Coco had to say, and Leon ran in the other direction while Roseanne ran after him to catch her. It was a perfect family scene, which made her eyes soft for a moment, and the next moment, they wandered again. This time, her eyes, which were hidden under sunglasses, stopped when she noticed a red light falling on the crowd. She recognised that it was a sniper hiding

Occasionally, he would find moments away to visit their home and check on the children.The impact of Roseanne's absence weighed heavily on the children, especially Leon.

With a strength that seemed to come from nowhere, she removed her oxygen mask and fixed her gaze on Nicholas."What happened to Nathan?" she demanded, her voice filled with urgency.Nicholas felt a lump form in his throat. How could he bring himself to tell her the devastating truth? He feared that the weight of the news would crush her fragile state and push her back into unconsciousness.But Roseanne saw through his hesitation. "Don't lie," she insisted, her determination unwavering. "I heard you."With a heavy heart, Nicholas took a deep breath and forced the words out. "He's gone," he whispered, his voice barely audible.Roseanne's eyes hardened as his words sank in. She remained silent, her expression betraying no emotion as she processed the devastating news.

Meanwhile, Kate and Rhys were sitting with Anne.“Why is Aunt suddenly changing colors?” Rhys asked.“Because she knows she was wrong and wants back what she lost,” Kate said matter-of-factly.Anne chuckled. “Kate, as much as I love your straightforward attitude, I’d appreciate it if you toned it down in front of Emery. She is… well, very touchy and fussy.”Kate shrugged. “MIL, I have a complaint. Coco and Sia had a girls’ day without me! Can you imagine? I’m trying to be as cool as them, but they left me out!”Rhys suppressed a chuckle. “Yes, Mom, they left my dear Kate out.”Anne played along. “That’s terrible, I’ll scold them,”“Yes, scold them well,” Kate agreed, then added mischievously, “but don’t tell them I snitched. Just say it was Rhys.”Anne smiled. “Alright, dear.” Then, she glanced at Kate. “I saw you have been spending time with Abella. How’s that going? I know you two weren’t close.”Kate sighed. “Everyone coddles her too much. She is living in disillusionment. Coco and

“Did you match into your preferred branch of residency?” Madam Facci asked, excitement filling her voice.Abella swallowed. “Ma, I’m still checking the results,” she admitted. “I’m scared.”“You have nothing to be scared of, my dear. Just look,” she heard. With a deep breath, Abella entered her credentials for the residency match.

They barely had time to inform anyone, but Abella rushed over as soon as she found out.The moment Callum stepped out of the delivery room and saw his sister waiting outside, a wave of emotions hit him all at once.

I’m so proud of you,” Abella whispered, pressing a kiss to his cheek.Callum let out a shaky breath, still overwhelmed. “When did you get here?”“Just now,” she said with a smile. “How’s Estelle?”“Tired,” he admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. “Still cursing me.”Abella chuckled. “And the baby?”“Just perfect,” Callum said, his eyes softening. “Come inside.

The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife A New Life
After her divorce, Abella didn’t leave the country. Cillian had given her a staggering sum in alimony, even going as far as naming half of his assets to her, but she refused to take a single dime. She had her own inheritance. More money than she could ever need. But what could wealth do? It couldn’t buy her happiness. It couldn’t fill the void in her heart.Cillian knew her too well; he didn’t push her to accept anything. He let her go, even when it shattered him.When her mother lived in Italy with Coco and Leon, alongside her uncle Nate, she had bought a beautiful bungalow. It had never been sold, left untouched over the years. When Abella married Cillian, Leon had given her the key to that house as a quiet token of their family’s past. There were two bungalows beside each other, one where her mother had raised her two older siblings, and the other where her father had stayed, the place where her parents had met and reunited. One had been passed down to Charlotte, the other to Leon.

Cillian stared at her, his throat tightening as he heard the finality in her voice. He had imagined this conversation a thousand different ways, but none of them had prepared him for the calm and almost serene acceptance in her eyes.“Abella…” He whispered her name like a prayer, like a plea. “Can we please rethink this?”Abella smiled. It was a soft, bittersweet smile that made his chest ache.“Cillian, there is nothing to rethink,” she said gently. “Alessandro came to see me. He told me that he was leaving the country with his mother. He said he doesn’t want to come between us, that he would be happy if you called him once in a while and only if it was okay with me.” She let out a humorless chuckle. “That’s too big of a burden for me to carry. I mean, I don’t care how you navigate your relationship with your son. But I will give you one piece of advice: don’t be a jerk. Don’t hurt one more person. You have already hurt me, you have hurt him, and you have hurt his mother. Stop making

Cillian reached for her hand, his grip firm but trembling as well. “Abella, please listen to me. I’m sorry. I made a mistake by not telling you the truth. Can you please forgive me?” His voice cracked with desperation.She looked at him, her expression unreadable. “I don’t know,” she said softly.Cillian’s breath hitched, and he tried again. “Please, I’ll change. I’ll work on myself. Just give me a chance.” His hands clenched at his sides as if willing himself not to break apart. “I don’t want to see you like this, so shattered. You mean so fucking much to me. Please.”But to Abella, his words felt like echoes in an empty room. They were hollow and weightless. Once upon a time, she had longed to hear them, had dreamed of a moment where he would look at her like this, beg for her, choose her. But now? Now, they felt unimportant. They meant nothing.She exhaled, rubbing her temple. “I heard you. But my head is splitting apart, Cillian. Can you please just go back to your house? I just w

Madam Facci looked at her son, her expression undecipherable. She had seen Cillian walk through storms without flinching, but today, he stood before her looking utterly wrecked. His usually sharp eyes were bloodshot, his arm wound had reopened, staining his sleeve with fresh blood, yet none of that seemed to matter to him or anyone at this point.“What do you want, Cillian?” she asked, her voice firm but not unkind.“I’m here to see Abella,” he said. His voice was hoarse, almost desperate.Madam Facci crossed her arms. “I’m sure you have no idea what happened last night.”“I know,” he admitted, running a hand through his already disheveled hair. “I just want to explain things to her. She is overthinking this, and there is nothing much to overthink. I just—” He exhaled sharply. “I just want to make everything okay.”A wry smile tugged at Madam Facci’s lips, but there was no amusement in her eyes. “Son,” she said, “we can never tell someone what is worth overthinking or not. For you, th
