All Chapters of Let Me Go, Ex Husband!: Chapter 71 - Chapter 78

OrchardThe event hall buzzed with energy, the kind that only came from a gathering of influential people all dressed to impress.I stood next to Iris, trying not to let my nerves show. This world of high-society events wasn’t entirely unfamiliar to me, but tonight felt different. Maybe it was the way people’s eyes lingered on us a second longer than usual, or the way their whispers seemed louder.I glanced at Iris, and it hit me again just how breathtaking she looked tonight. She was easily the most beautiful woman in the room. How lucky am I?Her dress clung to her in all the right ways, highlighting her elegance and confidence. Her hair was in soft waves down her back, and her makeup was subtle yet striking, emphasizing her sharp cheekbones and full lips.But it wasn’t just her appearance that made people stare, it was her presence. She carried herself with such poise, one could easily tell she was not to be messed with.Standing beside her, I felt both proud and in awe, knowing ju

IrisI found myself frowning as I looked back towards Andrew. He had lightish brown hair with golden highlights. It was either the beach that helped him bleach it or he got those highlights from the salon. Either way, they seemed too generic to be man-made. He had cool, honey-brown eyes that seemed to twinkle in amusement, but it was his face that I couldn’t quite place. I was halfway going to bet that as a prepubescent teen or as a teenager, he might have had one of those faces riddled with pimples. He could have been a shy boy. And what was worse? He might have been one of those who had a crush on me. I was quite a looker. I nearly patted myself on the back. "We were nerds?" I raised an eyebrow. Suddenly, Andrew burst out laughing, just as the other members of his company did. "To them, yes," Andrew said. "I was into nerd stuff so bad. I loved UFOs and other funny stuff like that. I loved dinosaurs. I loved books about dragons. It set a few words to me in senior high. But

Orchard’s PovThe applause still echoed in my ears as Iris and I stepped off the stage. Her hand was warm in mine, and the glow of the spotlight seemed to linger on her face even as we moved back into the crowd.She was smiling, no, beaming. I couldn’t stop looking at her. This wasn’t just her moment; it was our moment. I felt like the proudest husband alive.I stayed close to her, my hand never leaving hers, even as people swarmed around us with congratulations. Every handshake and pat on the back was for her, but I took just as much pride in it. Watching her shine was my greatest joy. She deserved all of this and more.“You were amazing up there,” I whispered to her as we finally found a quieter corner of the room. “Your speech was heartfelt, I could tell.”She laughed softly, the sound like music to my ears. “I was so nervous, Orchard. My hands were shaking. I forgot the anxiety that comes with going on stage.”“Nobody noticed,” I assured her. “You were perfect.”The room was alive

Tiffany’s PovThe night was supposed to be mine. Everything was supposed to go smoothly, and I was certain that I’d leave the event with a stronger grip on the future. But now, everything had flipped upside down, and I felt like I’d been struck by lightning.It all began when Halle stepped onto the stage. The room, which had been filled with the low hum of conversations, quieted instantly. Everyone turned to look at her. She was a commanding presence, dressed in an emerald dress that screamed elegance and authority. The stage lights glinted off her jewelry, making her look even more powerful. She was a woman who commanded respect with just a glance.I was standing with a group of businessmen, politely laughing at a joke I didn’t find funny, when Halle started to speak.“Good evening, everyone,” she began. “Thank you all for coming tonight to celebrate a new chapter in our journey. This evening is about more than just marking the move of our company to San Francisco. It’s also about t
