My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul



These words were as good as a breakup.

The thought of "break up" made Wendy chuckle bitterly. After all, they had never truly been together in any meaningful sense. There was nothing to break up from.

From this moment on, she could only hope that Aiken would find peace and happiness.

When Aiken heard her words, his gaze instinctively shifted toward the door. Their eyes met for a moment, locking across the room.

Even now, after everything that had transpired, Wendy's heart still skipped a beat when she saw him. Despite knowing him so well, despite all they

had shared, she couldn't control her feelings when he was near. Deep down, she knew she wasn't good enough for him.

After all, he had seen her at her worst-messy, broken, and humiliated. If their relationship had lasted this long, it was largely due to Simona.

But now, she didn't want to force him any longer. She didn't want to force herself either.

"Thank you for the memories we made," she said with a smile.

From this point on... they would go their separate ways. She truly hoped Aiken would find someone he could love, someone he could build a life with. She couldn't bring herself to believe he would remain single forever. He just hadn't met the right person yet.

Suddenly, Aiken stood and walked toward her.

They knew each other's bodies so well, yet Wendy still couldn't meet his gaze. She was afraid that if she did, she might regret her decision.

She cherished the memories they had shared too much to let them cloud her resolve now.

The words she had spoken were carefully prepared, rehearsed in her mind over and over. Today was the deadline she had set for herself-the day she would finally let go.

"What's going on?" Aiken's gaze locked onto Wendy.

They had been in this arrangement for over two years now. In that time, he had grown used to their dynamic. She was always compliant.

Aside from her initial insistence on

vel

becoming his mistress, she had never made any other demands. In return, he had given her many things including the career advancement she desired most.

If nothing had happened, she wouldn't be so determined to end things.

Wendy shook her head. "Nothing happened. just think we shouldn't continue like this anymore. I... I want to live a normal life. Maybe even find someone I can truly connect with, get married, and build a family.

"And honestly, I think you don't want to keep this going either. It's better if we both let go."

Her words came easily enough, but deep down, she knew she would never marry.

After enduring the chaos of her broken family, the thought of marrying someone she didn't love felt unbearable. She would rather face life alone.

"No, something's happened. Tell me," Aiken insisted, his tone suddenly firm as he frowned.

His sudden urgency startled Wendy, and for a fleeting moment, it almost felt like he cared about her. But just as quickly, she dismissed the thought.

Shaking her head, she replied,

"Nothing happened. I just don't want

to keep living like this. I want a

normal life. These two years... I was

greedy I know if it weren't for.

Simona, you probably would have

ended this a long time ago.

"I get it. Don't worry I'll make sure Simona never finds out about us. I'll avoid you as much as possible. There won't be any awkwardness." With that, she walked straight into the bedroom.noveldrama

Wendy was familiar with this place. It was Aiken's luxury apartment downtown, one he rarely stayed in except for their meetings.

Aiken watched Wendy leave, his expression unreadable. After a long pause, he took a deep drag from his cigarette.

She was hiding something. That much he was sure of.
