Chapter: 92 Part 4: The Man She Still Chooses to Trust
Aurelia swallowed. “He'll understand.”Vivian gave a disappointed look. “You're sure?”“Yes,” Aurelia responded without hesitation.Vivian stared at her for several seconds, then let out a quiet, defeated breath. “You've already made your decision, haven't you?”Aurelia nodded. “I just think Nahir deserves one more chance.”Vivian closed her eyes briefly. When she opened them again, disappointment and concern were written plainly across her face. “This time, you're on your own.”Aurelia's face fell. “Vivian…”“This is your final chance, Aurelia. Please don't waste it.” Vivian concluded.Aurelia stepped forward and wrapped her arms around her friend. “Thank you for always looking out for me.”Vivian reluctantly returned the embrace, but even as she held Aurelia, an uncomfortable feeling settled deeper inside her chest; she had tried to warn her, but she had failed.And somehow, she could not shake the feeling that Aurelia had just placed her trust in the one person who had never deserv

Vivian stepped closer. “Your relationship with Alexander started falling apart after Nahir came back. Then there was the reunion. Then Clara disappeared. Then Alexander nearly died. And every time something went wrong, Nahir was somewhere around you.”Aurelia's expression changed. “You can't seriously believe Nahir caused all of that.”“I don't know what he caused,” Vivian replied. “That's exactly what frightens me. I don't know what he's capable of, and neither do you.”Aurelia crossed her arms. “Nahir has been there for me from the beginning. He stayed when I was struggling, and he stood beside me when almost everyone else walked away.”Vivian took a deep breath. “That doesn't mean you should ignore everything that has happened.”Aurelia rolled her eyes. “I’m not ignoring anything.”Then Vivian looked her in the eye. “Then why are you defending him?”Aurelia hesitated. “Because I still believe there is good in him.”Vivian stared at her for several seconds. “You've said that before.

Aurelia lowered her eyes. “Nahir…”“I mean it,” he continued. “I made a mistake.”The regret in his voice was convincing enough to make Aurelia look up again. “I shouldn't have told you to divorce Alexander.”Vivian's expression immediately hardened.Nahir noticed, but he deliberately ignored her reaction.“I thought I was helping you,” he said. “You were suffering, Aurelia, and I couldn't stand watching you destroy yourself over a man who seemed determined to walk away from you. I thought if I convinced you to let go, I could save you from even more pain.”He paused, allowing his words to settle. “But I was wrong.”Aurelia's lips parted slightly. “You really think so?”“Yes.” Nahir held her gaze. “I realize now that I had no right to make that decision for you. It was your marriage, your life, and your choice. I should never have tried to decide what was best for you.”His voice softened. “If winning Alexander back is what you truly want, then I'll help you.”Vivian immediately shook

Vivian remained silent, her gaze unwavering, her mind racing. An icy knot of unease began to form in her stomach.His impeccably ill-timed arrival felt more than just coincidental; the fact that he had appeared immediately after she had delivered the news of Alexander's agreement to meet Aurelia sent a chill down her spine.Nahir offered them both a practiced, disarming smile, but Vivian's lips remained unmoving, her expression cold and guarded. She watched him, every fiber of her being on high alert.Then, a subtle detail caught her attention, a flicker that sent a jolt through her. Nahir's eyes weren't lingering on the shattered fragments of the vase. Instead, his gaze was fixed, with an unsettling intensity, directly on Aurelia's phone.On the photograph of Clara, still displayed on the screen. Vivian's stomach tightened, a cold premonition seizing her.Nahir, sensing her scrutiny, quickly averted his eyes, but it was already too late. Vivian had seen it, and the image seared itsel

Aurelia nodded rapidly, almost frantically. "When?""He hasn't decided yet," Vivian explained. "He said he'll inform me of the time and location later."Aurelia, her hands shaking, wiped away the fresh tears. "That's enough," she murmured, the simple phrase a testament to her desperate longing.Vivian's gaze sharpened, her expression becoming serious as she studied Aurelia. "Do not," she cautioned, her voice firm, "mistake one conversation for true forgiveness.""I won't," Aurelia promised, her voice subdued."And," Vivian continued, her warning clear, "do not, for a second, enter that meeting expecting everything to magically revert to the way it once was."Aurelia's gaze dropped, a shadow falling over her face. "I just want a chance to explain," she whispered, her voice laced with desperation.Vivian nodded slowly, a silent acknowledgment of the raw plea. "Then make it certain you tell him the complete truth."Aurelia's eyes drifted to the photograph of Clara still prominently displ

Vivian thanked him effusively once more before the call disconnected.Alexander slowly lowered the phone, placing it with deliberate care onto the table, as if it were something fragile, dangerous. Without a word, Clara immediately slid the small container of medicine closer to him, her gaze insistent."Now," Clara instructed gently but firmly, "take your medicine and get some much-needed rest."Alexander froze, the simple words striking a resonant chord deep within the core of his being. For an instant, the very walls of the room dissolved, the present fading into a distant echo.He was no longer the weary man in a quiet safe house, but a small boy once more, vulnerable and feverish.His mother, a luminous figure of comfort, stood by his bedside, a glass of water and medicine clutched in her hand.He could almost feel the tender caress of her voice, recall the way she would meticulously tuck the blankets higher, anchoring him to the bed when he inevitably tried to slip away.He remem
