BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Truth revealed
Hayley staggered back, shock overwhelming her as she met Adrian's dark and annoyed gaze. This was the first time in her entire life she had seen him so red. And it wasn't a pleasant sight at all. It was frightening. "So it's true, you're truly his wife, HAYLEY FORBES."Hayley's heart thumped in her chest at the mention of her name from him. How did he know? How did he know her real name? His wife', could it be Adrian had already discovered the truth about her? Oh no, no. This wasn't her plan. She intended to tell him herself. Her heart racing wildly, she slowly lifted her eyes to meet Adrian's. She stammered, her throat running dry. "A- Adrian, please. Please, I can explain."Adrian huffed irritably, clearly disgusted by her. "Explain? Explain what exactly. How you've been lying to me for the past five years? Or how you've been fucking your ex behind my back?" He shook his head, his disappointment and annoyance palpable Hayley's heart thudded against her chest rapidly at this. She

Adrian felt a wave of confusion wash over him upon hearing her statement. He stared at her for a moment, fazed. Nonetheless, he eventually aside his thoughts and presumed Alison was capping shit.Snapping derisively, he asked. "The heck do you mean she's your sister? How is Nina your sister?"Okay, that it was Alison's turn to be fazed. Nina?Alison was confused as she asked, her brows creasing. "Nina? Who the fuck is Nina?"Adrian exhaled heavily, shaking his head as he hissed irritably. "You claim she's your sister yet you don't know her name. I don't understand. Please, leave my office, Miss Forbes. I have important matters to tend to." He said dismissively, averting his gaze as he pulled out a drawer and retrieved a pen.Alison remained fazed for a moment, contemplating what he had just said. She knew that was Hayley. She was certain. Although she couldn't comprehend Adrian's statement, she eventually gathered her thoughts. "Listen, Adrian. I don't know who the fuck Nina is but t
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Harsh Reality
After spending some time playing with Daisy in the room, Leonardo began to feel restless, missing Hayley. He decided to check on her in the kitchen since she had not returned as promised. "I’ll be right back, baby," he told Daisy, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead. Daisy, completely engrossed in the cartoon playing on Leonardo's iPad, nodded absentmindedly.Leonardo offered a faint smile before getting up from the bed and walking over to his wardrobe to grab a singlet. Already dressed in sweatpants, he tousled his disheveled hair and stole another glance at his daughter before making his way out of the room.As he descended the stairs toward the kitchen, his ears couldn't help but strain the sounds filtering in from outside. Pausing, he furrowed his brows in confusion; he thought he had heard Adrian’s voice, but he dismissed it, knowing that Adrian had never been to his house. However, his skepticism dissipated when he heard Adrian’s voice again, this time clearly mentioning the
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Bad News
About what seemed like half an hour later, Leonardo and Hayley eventually returned inside the house, with Hayley still crying silently and profusely. Pangs of guilt tugged at her heartstrings, eliciting more tears from her eyes and making it more difficult for her to forgive herself for what she had done. Each time she replayed the last look Adrian gave her before he exited the compound, Hayley wished the ground could open up and swallow her.As Leonardo sat her down on the couch in the living room, her mind was still in oblivion. "Mi reina," Leonardo's soft and concerned voice broke through Hayley's thoughts, causing her to shudder as she slowly looked at him in response, her face tear-stained and her eyes puffy.Leonardo felt broken as he sat beside her on the couch, tugging her loosed strands of hair behind her ear. He reassured her. "It's going to be alright, mi reina. He'll come around. It just takes time. You have to be patient. Please, stop crying. It breaks my heart to see yo
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! "You have stepped on a Tigress's tail,"
Leonardo and Hayley arrived at the hospital parking lot, where Adrian was admitted.They unfastened their seatbelts and as they made to step out, Hayley halted Leonardo. "No, please. You can't come with me. You can't come at all." She stated, shaking her head as Leonardo turned to her, taking in her unpleasant features. Hayley's eyes were puffy red and her hair was slightly disheveled, loosely tied in a ponytail. She hadn't had the time to bathe before leaving as she had rushed to the hospital nearly twenty minutes later after they watched the news at home.Leonardo's tone and expression were filled with worry as he replied, his eyes locked on hers. "Are you sure, baby? I don't think you can handle them on your own. Let me come with you." He said imploringly, but deep down, he knew Hayley was right. He couldn't follow her in, nor could he even pay Adrian a visit as a friend, knowing he was part of the cause of his accident. Regardless, he wanted to be there for Hayley. He understood t
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! 'An eye for an eye'
'Fraternal Twin?'A wave of disbelief washed over Hayley as she struggled to grasp Clara's revelation. What did she even mean by that? Adrian had a twin? This was news to her. How could she have been unaware of this? Adrian had never mentioned having a sibling. What was going on?Her mind raced, filled with a torrent of unanswered questions, while tears streamed down her face. "W-what? I don’t understand," Hayley stammered, her gaze searching Clara's for clarity.Clara scoffed, amusement dancing in her eyes as she shook her head. "I bet you didn't see this coming... You should leave now, Nina. Just go. No one wants you here. Return to your ex. The nerve you have to show up after what you’ve done."More tears flowed down Hayley’s cheeks as she absorbed Clara's harsh remarks. She attempted to respond, "I-I’m sorry," but Clara cut her off."Just go. Go!" Clara insisted. Yet, Hayley hesitated; she couldn’t bring herself to leave in such a state.Suddenly, their moment was disrupted when a

His concentration was disrupted by the ringtone of his phone. With one glance at the screen, anxiety washed over Leonardo as he saw the caller ID.It was his sister, Laura. The young lady never called Leonardo unless she had something important to discuss. What could be the problem? Leonardo knew he couldn't handle family matters and Hayley's situation at the same time so he resolved to ignore the first call. However, Laura's calls remained persistent and she refused to back down until she was answered by him.Exasperated, he accepted the call and greeted her, trying to keep his tone steady despite his frustration. "Hello, Laura? How are you?"He immediately noticed her uneven, strained breaths, heightening his unease as she hesitated before responding."Brother... It’s Mom, Mom, and Grandpa."Leonardo's heart raced, his brow furrowing as he sensed Laura's distress. "What’s wrong? What’s happened to them?" he demanded, concern lacing his voice.Laura's voice trembled, tears evident as
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Goodbyes
"Mi reina, are you sure you're going to be alright?" Leonardo worriedly asked Hayley as he sat beside her on the king-sized bed in his room. He added, his hand resting on her hair affectionately. "I won't leave if you don't want me to." Hayley's weakened eyes wandered to his, and she gently grasped his hand by her face. "I'll be fine, Leonardo. I promise,""Are you sure, baby? I'd prefer it if you came along with me to Clasold City. I don't know what I'd do if history repeated itself. I'm worried for your safety..." He replied anxiously, referring to what had transpired at the hospital two days ago.Leonardo had raged two days prior when he saw the bruises on Hayley's face, inflicted by Adrian's sister, Cassidy. He had wanted to press charges and throw her in jail, but Hayley begged him not to. Despite his several attempts to make them pay for what they did to Hayley, Hayley refused to let him carry out any actions as she was acutely aware it would only escalate things. Leonardo didn'

Hayley hurried with overwhelming joy and excitement toward Leonardo's room, with Daisy beside her. Her elation was palpable as she realized that Leonardo was awake; she could hardly contain her eagerness to see him. At the same time, Leonardo engaged in conversation with his brother, Lorenzo, who had remained by his side since the women had departed an hour earlier following his awakening. Leonardo had undoubtedly been taken aback to see his family upon waking. However, his initial surprise gradually shifted to confusion when he noticed the absence of both his woman and daughter. However, they had reassured him that Hayley had stepped out briefly and would return shortly, while Daisy was in another room with Rosalie and Emily. With this information, his anxious heart began to settle as he accepted their reassuring words. After a further thirty minutes had elapsed without Hayley's return, Leonardo's concern began to intensify. Unable to contain himself, he called out to Lorenzo, who

.Hayley returned to the hospital after delivering the lawsuit documents to the wardress at Wendy's prison. Approximately an hour prior, the prosecutor, Alexa, who was overseeing Hayley's case, had provided her with the papers following their meeting. Hayley then drove to the prison, where Wendy and Lillian were incarcerated, and handed the documents to the wardress, choosing not to visit any of them. That was the least of her concerns; her only interest in seeing them was during the court proceedings, where the judge would render his final decision. With a sigh of frustration, Hayley pulled herself back to the present as she made a right turn onto the highway, heading towards the hospital. She recalled that the love of her life remained unconscious when she left earlier, and a wave of anxiety washed over her as she wondered if he had awakened from the coma. Thoughts of Leonardo tightened around her heart, causing her anguish. Hayley eventually regained composure as she caught sight

Her daughter had been involved in an accident and according to what the wardress had mentioned, Alison had also fallen in a coma after the incident. Wendy swallowed, her face flooded with tears. Her heart ached painfully as she grappled with the reality. How could this be? How did this happen? She felt a pang of guilt constrict her heart tightly, knowing she was mostly responsible for the unfortunate circumstance that had befallen her daughter. If she hadn't gotten herself in trouble in the first place, none of this would have happened. With that, her cries intensified as she remained on the ground. "I'm very sorry, ma'am," The wardress tried to sympathize, her tone laden with pity. But that did little to console Wendy, whose thoughts were all over the place. Meanwhile, Lillian had also been shocked upon he

"What are you saying? He has a guardian! You can't take that action."Lillian's heart raced with anxiety as she absorbed the unsettling information relayed to her over the phone. Despite her efforts to maintain her composure, her hand trembled slightly as it pressed the receiver to her ear. Beads of sweat began to form on her temples, and her anger flared as the caller finished her statement.Her grip on the phone tightened, and Lillian shot back, her frustration palpable. "What do you mean by that? You can't do that! He has a mother! I am his mother!"She fell silent as the caller replied, a response that clearly unsettled her. Lillian started again. "Listen, you cannot do this to me. Ethan is my son. I’ll be out of here very soon. Just be patient, please." Lillian pleaded, a tear streaming down her cheek that she quickly brushed away.She listened closely to the caller's words until the line beeped, indicating the call had ended.Her heart shattered, and fresh tears flowed down her
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! All caught
Hayley headed out of the hospital as soon as she received the news about Freya's capture. Right after Lillian was apprehended, she had instructed an officer of the law to discreetly conduct a search for Freya, ensuring that she returned to the city in one piece so she could serve her fair punishment for her actions. Hayley was quite surprised by the speed of the development, however, that was the least of her concerns at that moment. A blend of satisfaction and annoyance brimmed within her as she headed out to the awaiting car, parked in the hospital lot. She had nearly forgotten Emily was trailing behind her until Emily's voice sailed into her ears, pulling Hayley from her thoughts. "Where are you going, Hayley? Who was it on the phone?" Emily pressed, her tone filled with concern. Realizing she hadn't shared the news with her, Hayley stopped midway and turned to Emily in an attempt to placate her confusion. "I'll be right back, Em. I need you to stay behind and watch my mother a
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Beautiful friendship
Hayley made her way to the restroom section of the hospital and leaned against the door once she stepped inside. Her heart raced, stirred by memories of her confrontation with Clara.Painful tears stung her eyes despite her efforts to remain composed and resolute. She felt she didn't deserve to cry. If anyone ought to shed tears, it should be Clara, not herself. She hadn't done anything wrong.With this resolve, Hayley sniffled back her emotions, wiping away her tears with the back of her hand before heading towards the sink to wash her face. She stared at her reflection in the mirror afterward, her chest heaving. She drew in a deep breath and exhaled before further questioning herself if she had been too harsh on Clara or if she truly deserved what she got from her. Her thoughts were disrupted as the door to the bathroom swung open, startling Hayley. Without moving an inch, Hayley caught a glimpse of the person who had just walked in through the mirror and saw it was Emily."Hey, ar
BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Regret and remorse
Meanwhile, Clara watched in silence as she absorbed the affectionate scene unfolding before her. Occasionally, her gaze would trail from the newfound couple to Hayley, who watched with enthusiasm and joy. Clara felt her heart pricked painfully, once again remembering that she and Hayley were no longer friends. And it was all her fault. She literally betrayed Hayley. Abandoned her when she needed her the most and turned her back to her in her times of trial and peril. She wondered if Hayley was ever going to forgive her for her actions.Sure, she had only acted out because she didn't like the way Hayley's deception affected Adrian. But recognizing Hayley's other predicament with Wendy and Lillian, she had now come to understand why Hayley had lied to them about her identity in the first place. She was obviously running from something and just didn't want to get entangled with her past again. It was unfortunate that Leonardo had just shown up to thwart those plans of Hayley.Reflecting
