My Reborn Admirer Wins Over My Heart novel Chapter 26

**TITLE: He Returned to Break and Own Me and for His Queen 26**

**Chapter 26: The Perfect Pair**

Oriana stood there, utterly flabbergasted. “Mr. Caldwell?” The name echoed in her mind, taking a full minute for her to fully comprehend its significance.

Her gaze, initially stiff and conflicted, shifted to the man beside her. He was refined, noble in appearance, and the realization hit her like a wave. She nearly bit her tongue in disbelief.

“So you’re Micah,” she finally managed to say, her voice barely above a whisper.

The man who had been away, her husband, and whom she had assumed might not return in time, was standing right in front of her.

“Yes, Mrs. Caldwell. Mr. Caldwell finished his trip earlier than expected and made a special detour to Seabar this morning just to pick you up,” Kieran interjected, his tone brisk yet somehow laden with a hint of disbelief.

Kieran’s eyes flickered between Micah and Oriana, sensing the tension. He had never anticipated that Micah, usually so stern and devoid of humor, would engage in such a playful ruse with Oriana.

Micah shot Kieran a sharp look, causing him to awkwardly touch his nose. He quickly took the luggage from the staff, gestured for them to follow, and hurried ahead, eager to lead the way.

Oriana remained frozen, her mind racing as she processed the unexpected presence of her husband. Micah noticed her stillness and cleared his throat softly, the sound cutting through the thick air. “I was concerned you might feel tense on the plane,” he said, his voice low and soothing.

He turned his gaze fully toward her, his expression serious yet warm. “Hello. I’m Micah.”

As she recalled the faint dark circles under his eyes from the flight, Oriana felt a rush of conflicting emotions. He had just returned from overseas, and instead of taking the time to rest, he had chosen to come here, to her. It was as if he was made of iron, unyielding and strong.

She reminded herself not to overthink, to refrain from assuming malice where there might be none. Even though Grant had deceived and hurt her deeply, it didn’t mean she should automatically distrust the kindness of another.

With a slight lift of the corners of her mouth, she responded with a measured seriousness, “Hello, Mr. Caldwell.”

Micah seemed to catch the hint of a smile in her voice, and a soft, genuine smile crept onto his lips in response.

“Let’s go. We’re going home,” he said, the simplicity of his words igniting a flicker of warmth in Oriana’s heart.

“Okay,” she replied, her smile growing more genuine.

Back in Seabar, the signing ceremony unfolded seamlessly, every detail falling into place as planned.

Following the ceremony, Aurora’s core team organized a lavish celebration banquet, the atmosphere buzzing with excitement and anticipation.

Grant, impeccably dressed, made a striking entrance alongside Luna, capturing the attention of everyone in the room. His presence was magnetic, drawing admiration and astonished glances from all corners.

“Mr. Holloway is truly remarkable, both in appearance and intellect; he stands out among his peers,” one guest remarked, awe evident in their voice.
