Arnold’s patience was wearing thin. He glanced at his watch, frowning. “If you’ve got something to say, spit it out. I don’t have time to waste here with you.”
“Dr. Larson, do you like movies?” Elio ignored his frustration, flashing a wicked smile. “I know Asher loves films. I’ve got a special one here, something I think he’d really enjoy.”
As his words fell, the massive screen lit up, casting an eerie glow over Arnold’s pale, bewildered face.
The surround sound filled the room with intimate, playful laughter. Arnold recognized one of the voices immediately—it was Asher’s. The other voice, unfamiliar but smooth and clear, carried a soft warmth.
“Ash, do you love me?” The man asked with a chuckle.
“I love you.” Asher’s voice was low, raspy, and trembling with emotion. “I love you, forever and always.”
Asher had always been composed, reserved, and disciplined. This level of intensity and raw passion was nothing that would come from the man Arnold knew.
“And what if... One day, I die?” The man’s voice held a hidden sorrow, subtle but unmistakable.
Asher’s breathing was heavy, labored with emotion. “Don’t say things like that! If you die, I’ll follow you!”
“No, Ash, I don’t want anything to happen to you. I want you to live well. But if that day does come, I hope you’ll remember me… Forever.”
Arnold felt the blood in his veins pool in his chest, his heart pounding against his ribs like waves crashing through his organs.
Each beat left his heart more fractured and his soul more scarred.
His trembling hand gripped the sofa for support, barely able to hold onto the bouquet of white roses in his arms.
On the screen, Asher appeared alongside another handsome man, their faces pressed close to each other. The intimacy between them was unmistakable.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson)
I am reading this book from last year. Its very long story but at start i find enjoyable.Still there is no closure , dragging the story and the writer is running out of ideas. Its frustrating that they don't upload chapters regularly....
If you are about to start reading this “ongoing” book….don’t. It’s a great read but mo regular updates and leaves you hanging. Took me months to get to chapter 2370 (this app only has it to chapter 2368….learned to search different links to read ahead a bit). These ongoing books are just not worth the time since their author (s) take days/weeks to upload new chapters. Again great sultry, long drawn out at times, but not worth the frustration of no new updates....
No update in 6 days!!! Really??? I’m about over this story and ready to move on, the wait is to long....
Pls update regularly or least let us know why it's taking so long...
Ok I was thinking last night. I really hope the author hasn’t been affected by hurricane Helene. Not sure where they are located but I hope everyone is safe...
It’s been 87 years since the update with only 2 chapters. 🙄...
