All Chapters of Only Way to Say Sorry: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

"I was scheduled to be discharged today," I said softly, not even bothering to look at her.Rebecca seemed to snap out of her daze, her eyes drifting away as she mumbled, "I was planning to pick you up later, but I didn't expect you'd be back early."My gaze shifted to a bag on the table next to her. Inside, there was a neatly folded pair of dress pants, and a note stuck on it that read, [Be sure to deliver this to my sweetest secretary this afternoon so that he'd reward me with a night at his place!] Rebecca noticed where I was looking and quickly tried to hide the bag behind her, brushing it off with a forced casualness. "Hendrix's washing machine broke, so I just brought it back to clean for him."She didn't do a very good job hiding the navy blue men's underwear peeking out from the edge of the bag. I couldn't be bothered to call out her pitiful excuse, so I simply replied, "Got it."Rebecca eyed me with suspicion, perhaps trying to gauge if I was really going to let it sli

Rebecca was completely taken aback, her shock evident. She clearly hadn't expected me to bring up divorce."Are you out of your mind, Spencer!? It's just cooking a meal; is it really that big of a deal?!"I remained calm, pushing her away just as coldly as she had pushed me earlier."I've left the divorce papers at home. When you have the time, sign them and have your other assistant help me with the process. I won't be bothering you anymore."With that, I turned and walked out, her angry shouts echoing behind me."Spencer! You think I can't live without you? Fine, I'll divorce you! Who would want to put up with your moody, unpredictable temper after I'm gone?!"I went to the office to gather my things. Rebecca had assigned me the lowest position in the company, but still expected me to handle a variety of tasks, big and small. She called it "training" me.I handed in my resignation, which didn't require Rebecca's approval since my position was so low. The HR staff looked at me

I shot Rebecca a cold, piercing glare, no longer wanting to deal with her. With every ounce of energy, I tried to shake her off. As soon as she released me, I lost my balance and stumbled toward the stairs. Suddenly, everything spun, and I felt dizzy, unable to see clearly. With a loud thud, I collapsed.When I woke up, I found myself in a hospital bed. Sitting beside me, her eyes red from crying, was Rebecca, looking anxious and concerned. "Spencer, you're awake! How do you feel? Are you still in pain?" she asked, her voice filled with urgency.I weakly turned my face away, not wanting to look at her. Rebecca's soft sobs filled the room as she gently adjusted my blanket, speaking in a quiet, tender voice. "The doctor said the complications from your acute kidney failure are severe. You're anemic and have low blood sugar. You need to rest and take care of yourself. Don't worry about returning home just yet. I'll stay here and take care of you."I felt nothing but annoyance at

The atmosphere at Brianna's company was great, and I got along well with my colleagues. After a month, I had already become familiar with everyone. My days followed a simple routine, splitting my time between Jenna's house and the office. Spending so much time with Jenna, just the two of us, under the same roof, I started to feel something more than gratitude for her care. One day, I was lost in thought when I unexpectedly bumped into Rebecca outside the company building, shivering in the cold wind. I wasn't sure how long she had been there, but her clothes were too thin for the weather, and she was visibly freezing. I walked past her without acknowledging her. Rebecca's face lit up with a flicker of hope as soon as she saw me. She cautiously approached, her voice barely above a whisper. "Spencer, I got to the bottom of the matter. Have you seen the news? I'm so sorry for everything. It's all my fault that you've been hurt. I owe you, and I'll do anything to make it up to you. Pl
