Will she finally become someone's first choice—or lose herself trying?

Too Late to Beg, Mr. Billionaire: Your Ex-Wife Has Moved On

Three years ago, billionaire Theodore Chambers handed Victoria Ellis divorce papers with cold eyes and colder words—all for the sake of his first love, Isabella Waters. Victoria didn't cry. She didn't beg. She simply signed her name, walked out of that golden cage, and disappeared from the world of the rich. What the world didn't expect… Was for the discarded ex-wife to rise from the ashes—not as a socialite, but as the world's most sought-after reconstructive mortician. Behind every high-profile crime scene and closed casket, she was the one restoring dignity to the dead—and building a name powerful enough to shake law enforcement and the elite alike. Now, at a funeral of all places, their paths cross again. She stands beside another man, radiant, untouchable. He watches in disbelief—his ex-wife, no longer his. "You handle corpses every day. Aren't you afraid of bad luck?" he growls, grabbing her wrist. She smiles coldly. "In my heart, the grass over your grave has already grown two meters tall." But fate has one final card to play. When Victoria finds Theodore lying in a pool of blood, clutching an old photo of her, everything unravels. Was it too late after all? Or is love just another body she's not willing to reconstruct?

Billionaire's Regret, Too Late!

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years—three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined—he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken—to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end—almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me—only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

A newspaper man from the city has heard the great rumors about this mysterious Mr. Gatsby who throws lavish parties. He comes (in vain) to get information from Jay. Nick decides to tell us the truth about Gatsby's past, since apparently, the man lied about everything. Even his name. So here's the real deal: Gatsby was born "James Gatz." (It is kind of cute how he just played around with the "y" sound.) And he didn't grow up wealthy; he grew up poor. "Jay Gatsby" was born the day James Gatz, at 17, rowed out to meet Dan Cody's yacht, to tell him that a "wind might catch up and break him up in half an hour." Dan Cody (sound familiar?) became his mentor and best friend. He spent the next five years as Cody's steward, mate, skipper, secretary, and, sometimes, when Cody got too drunk, jailor--and probably vomiting-head-holder, too. There's a reason Gatsby drinks so little. Nick recalls the portrait of the man in Gatsby's bedroom. We're a step ahead of you, Nick. According to Cody's will, Gatsby was supposed to inherit his money – but Cody's mistress intervened and kept it for herself. And that's the real deal. Nick says he didn't find this out until much later, but he wants to dish it to us now. Back to the story at hand. Nick is chilling at Gatsby's place when this man Sloane and the girl he's with stop by – with Tom Buchanan. Gatsby goes about entertaining these unannounced and rather presumptuous guests. Now that Gatsby has, in his mind, secured Daisy, he's rather aggressive to Tom, taunting subtly, "I know your wife." Tom, who hates to be out-manned by anyone, takes an instant dislike to Gatsby. Can't blame him. Sloane's girl invites Gatsby to come to dinner, even though the guys clearly don't want him—and the girl might have just been Mean-Girling it up a little. Gatsby decides to join anyway. As Gatsby goes to get dressed, the trio leaves without him. Ooh, burn. The next Saturday, Tom and Daisy both come to Gatsby's party, apparently just asking for trouble. Daisy and Gatsby sneak over to Nick's house to have some couple time on his front steps. At dinner, Tom leaves to eat at another table. Daisy knows what it's all about – she tells Nick that the girl is "common but pretty" and even goes so far as to give Tom her "little gold pencil" in case he needs to write anything down (like a phone number, for instance, or a "let's meet here to have an affair" address). Nick tells us that the tone of this party is different from the others; everyone is hostile, drunk, and kind of rude. great gatsby chapter 6 summary(Click the summary infographic to download.) There is some general fascination with a movie star who is there with her director. Said director has been staring at her loveliness and finally goes to kiss her on the neck. This woman, sitting under a—wait for it—WHITE tree, is clearly the object of this man's fascination. Hmm. Aside from the pretty actress, Daisy doesn't like the crudeness of the crowd, or of West Egg in general. But she pretends to be impressed with it when Tom starts knocking the party. Tom wants to find out "the truth" about Gatsby – mostly how he got his money, which to a mind like Tom's is pretty much your defining feature. Daisy is extremely certain that Gatsby's money came from drugstores, but we're still not sure. Nick stays until the bitter end. He talks with Gatsby, who is concerned that he "can't make Daisy understand." "Understand what?" you might be thinking. And rightly so. Nick tells us that Gatsby wants the impossible out of Daisy: "He wanted nothing less of Daisy than that she should go to Tom and say: 'I never loved you.'" Nick cautions Gatsby that he can't repeat the past. Gatsby isn't buying it. Nick imagines Gatsby as a younger man courting the eighteen-year-old Daisy. Gatsby wanted to "gulp" down everything that surrounded her – her life, the culture of the wealthy, the wonder. It's all very poetic and lovely. You should definitely check out the full passage in your book. Nick says he is "reminded of" something that he has long forgotten – but it escapes his mind. Very curious, indeed.

*The Great Gatsby* by F. Scott Fitzgerald remains a masterclass in atmospheric storytelling, capturing the glittering high-society madness and underlying tragedy of the Jazz Age. Set in the summer of 1922 on Long Island, the novel follows narrator Nick Carraway as he enters the extravagant world of his enigmatic neighbor, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby’s relentless, tragic pursuit of Daisy Buchanan serves as a brilliant critique of the American Dream, exposing how wealth, social obsession, and idealizing the past can lead to ultimate ruin. Fitzgerald’s prose is sublime—poetic, sharp, and rich with memorable symbolism, from the haunting eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg to the iconic green light at the end of Daisy's dock. Despite its brevity, the novel delivers a powerful emotional punch, offering a timeless observation on human desire, memory, and heartbreak. It is an essential read for anyone who appreciates breathtaking prose and haunting character studies.
