BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: Ex-wife wants revenge! Blind date
It was still the early hours of the serene Saturday night, and the evening embraced Adrian reluctantly dressing up for his arranged date in just an hour. Frustration weighed heavily on him as he secured his watch around his wrist. After his reconciliation with Hayley, Adrian had considered canceling the date his mother had persuaded him on. But he knew he couldn't. That would be a breach of the deal he had made with his mother a week ago. And besides, he only needed to endure this one and never have to face her meddling and pressure again. That was the only advantage he held onto.Adrian was certain he'd have no interest in the lady as he believed his heart solely belonged to Hayley. She was the only woman he loved and would ever love. The thought of loving someone else was inconceivable to him. Reflecting on the past days of the week, he realized how much he missed Hayley. He hadn't seen her much lately as she had later extended her leave of absence from two days to a week and had

"... Who is she?" Her voice resonated in his ears as he gazed at her intently. Upon hearing her question, Adrian's eye flickered toward his phone, prompting him to instinctively turn off the device before redirecting his attention back to the stunning lady standing before him. He had no idea who she was and he couldn't disclose Hayley's identity to a stranger, just like that. Thus...Adrian waved his hand dismissively, responding politely. "Uh, just someone I know... But excuse me, you are?" He asked, reciprocating her expressionless gaze and attempting to maintain a sense of composure. Alison's frown deepened as she stared at him for a moment, her face devoid of any emotion as she contemplated if her eyes had just played tricks on her a minute ago or not. The woman she had glimpsed on Adrian's phone bore an uncanny resemblance to her missing foster sister, Hayley. Or was she even the one? She couldn't fathom her own curiosity. Noticing the lady before him remained silent as if lo

Alison was still imagining the things she would do to Adrian when he abruptly turned toward her and met her lust-dazed orbs, catching her off-guard. Surprise flickered across his face as he realized he wasn't mistaken, the lady had been unabashedly ogling him. In as much as he found it flattering and thrilling that a beautiful lady like her was so captivated by him, Adrian couldn't ignore the pang of guilt and betrayal in his heart. He thought of Hayley and what this would mean in their non-existent relationship. He couldn't do that to her. This might be a test of his love for her after all."So, tell me more about yourself, Mr. Lewis." Alison started, returning her gaze to match his again. Just then the waiter arrived with their orders, placing the drinks delicately on the table before excusing himself.Adrian replied as he poured wine into the two flute glasses, offering one to Alison. He shrugged casually. "Well, there isn't much to know. I'm thirty, and I own an Arts company." H

"Welcome back, SCA Nina!" They all shouted in unison as they saw her approach the door with Adrian by her side. Their faces lit up with genuine smiles, reflecting their joy at her return. Hayley stood frozen by the doorway, momentarily stunned and speechless by the surprise. After a moment, she eventually let out a laugh. "Oh my goodness, what is all this?" Hayley marveled at her gaily decorated office in awe as she walked in. Adrian, who had escorted her in from the lobby cleared his throat before replying in a friendly tone."We thought we should throw our best artist a surprise welcome party. We are lucky to have you back here, SCA Nina." He added with a playful tone, leaning in to whisper in Hayley's ear. "And this is also a Thank you gift from us to you for accepting to represent us in the upcoming competition."The colleagues nodded in agreement, their eyes fixed on the two of them. "That's correct, SCA Nina." One of them chimed in.Adrian shrugged playfully, nudging Hayley. "

"WHAT?!" Hayley exclaimed in shock. Leonardo watched as she staggered back, her gaze dropping as she was still reeling from the shocking news he had just revealed to her. He had anticipated this. He knew this revelation would create a problem from the start, but he had to tell her. He had almost reacted the same way too when Adrian had also informed him about the date. He felt sorry for Hayley.There was a momentary silence as the atmosphere around them shifted with Hayley's heart still beating erratically in her chest. Leonardo remained silent, unsure of how to react.After a moment, Hayley finally struggled to regain her composure and also mustered the courage to speak. Her eyes darted to Leonardo's, her disbelief at what he had just told her, still palpable. "What do you mean Adrian went on a date with Alison? I don't understand. How do they know each other? How?" Hayley's voice trembled as she poured out her questions in a panicked tone.Leonardo sat straighter on the chair and

"Dumb bitch!" The young man's derogatory insult echoed through the serene room, filled with tension and fear. He growled at the woman, who was currently on her knees before him, vulnerable and defenseless. The man had a gun in his hand, and it pointed at her.Despite that, the woman remained still, her expression devoid of any emotion. Her gaze was lowered, and behind the lowered gaze, her eyes flickered with a hidden determination as she discreetly observed the gun that could decide her fate. She needed to act rationally and fast, otherwise the man would kill her in no time.The lady's face was adorned with stains of crimson, likewise, the white shirt she was clad in, was evidence of the violent encounter that had happened not too long ago. Her blonde hair, tied in a ponytail, framed her doe-like blue eyes that lacked empathy. They held a distant calculating gaze as she inwardly plotted her next move.The man who was unaware of the lady's intentions, barked at her again, harshly dema

She scoffed incredulously, shaking her head."The fuck are you trying to imply? What makes you think I'll ever work for you again?" Lilian retorted indifferently upon hearing Wendy's request. She stood her ground by the doorway, locking eyes with Wendy in a silent battle of emotions. Lillian's insides surged with nothing but resentment and frustration towards her. Gosh, she hated this woman before her. She despised the power Wendy still held over her. And Lilian knew damn well that was the only reason why she dared to show up uninvited. Nevertheless, Lilian had no intention of getting involved in whatever business that had brought Wendy to her doorstep. All Lilian wanted was for Wendy to say her piece and get out after getting declined.After a moment, Wendy's initial smile faded and her face turned expressionless as she replied in a relaxed tone, still standing. "Oh Lilian, dear. I witnessed your performance not too long ago, you know. And in my opinion, it was outstanding. I mean,

As Hayley stepped into the serene office, her high heels echoed on the marble floor, disrupting the tranquility of the room and drawing Adrian's attention as his eyes darted to meet hers. She closed the door behind her.Adrian paused his hand on the mouse and relaxed upon seeing Hayley, a warm smile forming on his face. He silently watched her as she made her way to his corner, with a file in her hand. On the other hand, Hayley approached Adrian's desk nervously, a faint smile plastered on her face. She was feeling uneasy, still unsettled about the events that had been happening in her life recently, especially involving the Forbes family. It had been three days since Leonardo informed Hayley about the situation. Although Adrian still hadn't mentioned anything about the date to her till now, Hayley believed it was better that way. She wasn't sure how she'd react if he did bring it up anyway. Nevertheless, a new goal and determination had ignited within Hayley. And that goal was to

Seated before an elegant dressing mirror in her room, she delicately applied light makeup while her body buzzed with excitement in anticipation of her date night with Leonardo. He was due to pick her up in an hour, yet she found herself uncertain about what outfit to wear. Just then, Emily entered the room, cradling Daisy in her arms.Catching sight of Emily's reflection in the mirror, Hayley chuckled as Emily paused, seemingly taken aback by her appearance.

While they were working in the prison yard that afternoon, Lillian occasionally stole glances at Wendy, who was positioned a few feet away from her. It had been three days since the court delivered its final verdict. And Lillian could attest to the fact that those days had been the most challenging of her life.They worked like lackeys in the yard, all day. She got bullied by her superiors; sometimes, she was denied dinner. While she had thought initially that she was resilient and could survive the prison life, now she was beginning to doubt her strength. Only three days had passed but it felt as though she had been trapped in there for decades. The relentless suffering felt overwhelming most times. Most distressing of all was the thought that her son would soon be placed in foster care, as she had been unable to secure her release from prison. Her last conversation with Leonardo had not gone well, and she was acutely aware that he would not intervene on Ethan's behalf.Lillian had o

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.

.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.

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.
