Mr billionaire's regret: chasing after my ex-wife isn't easy Chapter 61: surgery
The day had finally arrived. Nova was flying down to Korea for her surgery and Zephyr was right beside her. Zephyr’s grip tightened around the handle of Nova’s luggage as they exited the airport into the crisp air of Seoul. “Did you get everything from the plane?" Nova asked and Zephyr nodded as he held her hands. Shortly after they left the airport, their cab received them and they headed down to the hospital. Zephyr was quiet all through the ride. Nova didn't say a word and neither did he. Both sat beside each other, holding hands and wishing this wasn't as sad. The hospital stood in the distance, a towering structure of glass and white walls. Nova had a chance here. The doctors had performed similar surgeries and she wasn't as helpless anymore. This trip had been the singular focus of Zephyr’s existence since he discovered her illness. Every penny, every sleepless night, every whispered prayer had led them here. Yet, as they approached the sliding doors, Zephyr couldn't den

Chapter 62 Nova stood still. She couldn't believe that Zephyr had just yelled at her. “I am hurting too! I want you to be fine! I want you to be whole!" Zephyr yelled. "Don't you dare speak to me that way! You can't make me do it!” She cried out. Zephyr was stunned. He froze and couldn't speak. He didn't know when he'd lost control. But seeing her so distraught just broke him. How could he be mean to her when she was so lost? Nova stormed out of the hospital, her vision blurred by tears. Lose her memory? How could they expect her to make such a choice? Everything she was, her identity, her past, her love for Xavier and Zephyr, it was tied to those memories. Without them, who would she even be? Zephyr hurried after her, his voice calling her name as he caught up. “Nova, wait!” She turned sharply, her eyes red and filled with anger. “Do you even understand what you’re asking me to do? How can you be so calm about this? They’re telling me I might forget everything, everything

Nova had left him. She was wheeled into the operation room and it was one of the hardest seconds of his entire life. He had to leave the woman he loved in the hands of the doctor for an operation that could end all she knew her life to be. She could lose her memory. Memories of everything she'd worked for. Memories of them. Memories of their love. Memories of their child. It was hours and Zephyr couldn't stay still. The cold hospital corridor did nothing to settle Zephyr’s nerves. The air was filled with the smell of antiseptic, and the fluorescent lights were a little harsh. He paced back and forth, gripping Nova’s diary in his hands. It wasn't much but it was pretty much all he had left of her memories. The leather cover was worn from years of use, the edges slightly curled, as if it had been opened and read a thousand times before. Inside, her handwriting danced across the pages, memories of their time together, thoughts of their son, Xavier, and wishes for the future she f

Suddenly, the police stormed the hospital unannounced. Zephyr's eyebrows furrowed as his gaze locked onto the detective who stepped forward, flashing his badge before him. “LAPD. Mr. Zephyr, you're under arrest for your fraudulent acts,” the detective announced, a firm look on his face as his eyes pierced through Zephyr's. Zephyr's eyes flickered, his eyebrows furrowed as he opened his mouth, yet finding it hard to utter a word. “How…What…” he stuttered. “We have evidence against you, and this is a warrant demanding your immediate arrest,” the detective added, his voice laced with so much seriousness. Zephyr stared in confusion, his eyebrows arched in shock, as he lasted his gaze on Eryx, who stood across the room. “You have the right to remain silent, or anything you say may or will be used against you in the court of law. You also have the right to an attorney,” the detective said as he firmly handcuffed Zephyr and proceeded with pulling him away. Eryx wailed profusely, tear

Eryx’ eyebrows furrowed as the name rang a bell in his ears. “You've got to be kidding me,” he muttered angrily. “What did you say?” Nova slowly turned to see who was standing right next to her. Eryx quickly lit his face with a soft smile, grabbed her hand between his hands, and glared innocently into her eyes. “Where am I? Where is Zephyr?” Her curious question lingered, piercing Eryx’ heart like a finely sharpened dagger. “My name is Eryx, the man you love. Zephyr is your enemy,” Eryx said, his gaze firmly locked onto Nova's. “What are you saying? It's hard for me to believe you,” she replied, her eyes slightly squinted as she tried to sit upright on the bed. “Trust me, baby. I love you so much, and I would never lie to you. Zephyr has made us go through a lot, and I am not going to let tags happen again,” Eryx’ sweet tongue freely moved with the release of lies from his lips. “Zephyr? So he tried to hurt me?” Nova's eyebrows furrowed, as blank memory sought for information.

The cutleries clinked against the plates, teeth munched against food. An awkward silence filled the dining room as they both had their dinner together. Nova made sure she kept a good distance away from Eryx on the dining table, but that didn't stop him from glaring at her exposed cleavage lustfully. Nova's appetite began to elude her. The room was growing hot for her to stay, and she kept trying to cover up herself. She constantly avoided eye contact, staring at other structures in the house. Eryx glared continuously, smirking his lips against each other, his eyes beaming with every ounce of lust. “So, I have a question,” Nova quickly broke the silence that ruled the room for a while. Forcing Eryx to jerk back to self-awareness and control his lustful urge. “Yeah…Yeah. I'm listening. What's your question,” he stuttered, cleaning the food stain in his mouth and adjusting his position in his chair. “I was wondering. This Zephyr, I must hate him so much to have called his name f

Eryx’ mouth was shut, eyes fixed on the road, and so was Nova's. The blaring of horns, and sound of ignited engines greeted their ears as they drove to see Zephyr as requested by Nova. The car was filled with awkward silence as none of them had the courage to start a conversation. The atmosphere was growing uneasy and uncomfortable for Eryx. He shook his shirt in discomfort, unhooking one of the buttons. He kept checking the car's AC, doubting if it was working at all. “Do you want some music?” Eryx asked, swallowing nervously as he stole a glance at Nova. Nova kept a straight look, and kept her eyes fixated on the road, totally avoiding having any contact with Eryx. She responded with a cold silence, maintaining a pale expression on her face. Her mind reeled with several thoughts, and she was beginning to grow uneasy around Eryx. “Why don't we talk about something interesting, huh? Like… you know, your job as an actress,” his persistence pressed further, desperately seeking

Zephyr's eyebrows furrowed as his gaze locked onto Nova. He found it hard to understand why Nova just asked that question, utter confusion ruled his mind as he kept staring at her. Eryx grew uneasy, his feet tapping constantly against the ground as he nervously watched them talk. “Yes, Nova. It is me. Zephyr,” he replied softly, his arms wide spread with a soft smile. “Why do you seem shocked? Did you lose your memory after the surgery?” Zephyr asked confusingly. Nova glared at him, irritated by everything about him, thus keeping mute to all his questions. Zephyr quickly slammed his hand against his forehead. “My bad. I totally forgot the doctor said there was a high risk of you losing your memory after the surgery,” he lamented. “I know you must be happy that I lost my memory,” Nova replied bluntly. “What? No, how will you say such a thing?” A piercing pain struck his heart. He still couldn't understand why she sounded the way she did. “Look, Zephyr. You may think that I ha

Eryx was startled for a second. He didn't understand how Zephyr was suddenly here.Zephyr immediately came and took Nova from Eryx.” Nova, Nova are you fine”. He shook her several times but there was only a weak response. She didn't look good and it didn't look like something regular was wrong with her.“What did you do to her Eryx”. He turned to his brother, devastation filled in his eyes.“How..how are you here?” Eryx ignored the most important question at that time.“I followed her here because I was the one who told her to come here”.Eryx scoffed at his brother, then a loud laughter followed suit. “So what were you trying to do? You were trying to spoil my reputation in front of her”. He asked with a sinister expression.Zephyr looked at Nova one more time and she was still breathing. He knew she had to be taken to the hospital. So he took her closer to his arms and raised her up.“Well guess what, your mission was successful”. He blocked Zephyr's way, preventing him from rushing

Meanwhile back at the Blackwoods mansion. The family had just finished eating dinner. Zephyr, together with Tiana, were walking his mother and Lilian back to the car.“You know son, you made the best decision. Now you can focus on bringing up your new family and forget about that witch”. His mother snickered with fine wrinkles. She couldn't contain the joy she felt that Nova was gone.Zephyr took a deep breath.This wasn’t a simple betrayal, it was a knife to the heart, twisted with such precision that every nerve seemed to scream in agony.“Alright mum”. He simply said without any emotion. He could feel Tiana hands on his shoulders giving him some certainty.“Don't be sad bro. Good people deserve good things and Nova isn't good for you”. Lilian said without thinking. She just wanted to give him some word of affirmation even though she didn't really care.Zephyr nodded again politely as he watched them go to the car and soon they zoomed off.

Nova glared at Jane, a wave of shock surging through her spine. “What do you mean?” Nova asked, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Jane chuckled, laughing like she had just heard a joke. “You should have seen your face. You looked so pathetic,” Jane teased. Nova still looked confused, her expression looking very perplexed. “I don't understand.” “Easy Nova. I was just teasing. I am just trying to say that I want a man who will treat me the same way Eryx treats you. I want him sooner,” Jane said, seductively biting her lips as she winked at Nova. “You shouldn't be playing with something as sensitive as that,” Nova warned, her expression looking perplexed. “Relax, Nova. Nobody is taking your man from you. Not me anyway. Trust me,” Jane said, softly patting her on her shoulder. Nova was still disturbed about her reply, but she decided to allow the subject to die. There was no use of dwelling on it anyway. Nova and Jane finished up with their meal, and retired back to work. When

Nova wore a soft smile as she watched Jane take a seat. She was clearly happy to see her, and so was Jane. Their smiles beaming with every excitement that came with it. “You look gorgeous anyway,” Jane complimented Nova, forcing her to blush lightly. “Thanks, darling. You've made my day. Compared to that sick psycho that just left my office,” Nova sighed, furiously glaring at the door. “Tell me about it,” Jane smiled softly, giving Nova a soft nudge on her shoulder. “You won't believe it. She came into my office this morning, neglecting what she actually came here for. Just to lecture me about my character,” Jane let out a rather sarcastic laughter. “What does she know about character development? She sucks at relationships with people,” Jane mocked while trying her best not to laugh so hard. Nova snapped her finger in affirmation. “That's right. Do you see the way she speaks to clients? She's literally the rudest staff we have in this firm,” Nova chuckled. “You're right. I no

“Please ma, we're very sorry,” they pleaded with their knees to the ground and their voices in harmony. But Nova didn't seem like she was ready to change her mind. She was totally shut and paid no attention to them. They were unfortunate to get caught gossiping about Nova. Noca was seriously pissed and decided to make them pay. She had gone cold, and their pleas were resting on deaf ears. “Gossips, huh. That's what you two do in this firm. Instead of working, you make use of your time gossiping,” Nova highlighted, angrily staring at the both of them. “No, ma. We are very sorry. This won't repeat itself again, ma,” they kept pleading as they swept the floor with their dresses. Nova ignored them and went cold as she searched her bag, seriously looking for her office card, which she would use to open the door to her office. “Is she paying attention to us?” One of them whispered discreetly. “Of course I am. But your pleas mean nothing to me. You both are fired anyway. I guess this

The van jerked violently as it came to a screeching halt. Zephyr braced himself against the cold metal walls of the van as the impact threw him off his seat. The officers in the van looked among themselves, wondering what was happening. Something was happening. “Hey, what's going on out there!" The guard beside Zephyr hollered loudly to the driver. “We've been intercepted!" The driver replied heatedly. At this same time, the doors of the van swung open at once. Zephyr squinted against the sudden brightness as the sun flooded into the interior of the van. Outside, multiple cars were parked in formation with their engines still rumbling. He didn't have to see who it was to know exactly what had happened. He knew who had done all this. Alex. “He did it," Zephyr muttered to himself with a satisfied smile. Right then, a man stepped out of the car and it was none other than Alex. A very confident and slightly arrogant smirk was plastered across his face as he stepped forward.
Mr billionaire's regret: chasing after my ex-wife isn't easy Chapter 71: A deal
A Deal in the DarkThe prison cell was cold. Sterile. Lifeless. Zephyr sat on the edge of the hard mattress with his elbows resting on his knees, hands clasped together in anger and nervousness. How could he let this happen to him? How had Eryx managed to take everything he owned and ever cared about? His father was gone. Nova was lost to him. And Eryx had won. For now. While he was still deep in thoughts, the sound of approaching footsteps could be heard through the hall. through the hall. A guard’s voice could be heard as he banged on Zephyr's door twice. “You have a visitor.” Zephyr barely looked up. The door buzzed open and the guard led him to the meeting area. That's when he saw Alex. Alex, his best friend, his brother in arms, the only person left in the world who knew who Zephyr truly was beneath all the mess Eryx had created. Alex looked very disturbed as he sat across Zephyr. “Were you able to get any evidence?” Zephyr asked, his voice forcefully calm despite

Eryx’ eyes widened as he stared at the figure who just called out his name. “Jane!” He exclaimed shockingly, his eyebrows raised as he glared at her from a distance. Jane hurriedly ran towards him, her arms spread wide open as she quickly embraced him, letting out a soft moan. “I have missed you,” she admitted, her arms tightly wrapped around him. Eryx quickly pushed her away from him, loosening her grip around him as he casted a rather stoic expression on her. “How dare you? Do you want to embarrass me?” Eryx flared furiously, his eyes glaring right into hers. Jane's eyebrows furrowed, her gaze locked onto Eryx’. “What do you mean, Eryx? It's me, Jane,” she said, trying to affirm that Eryx was fully aware of her identity. “Of course I know it is you. You slut! Get off me,” He roared, his gaze sternly reeking with fury. Jane trembled as fear gripped her, sending shivers through her spine. She quickly moved a few inches away from Eryx as she stared shockingly at him. Her min
