ALEXANDER'S POV

"What?? How..? No, no, where's the hospital?"

I could barely breathe. The idea of Katherine being sick... no, being on the hospital bed made me so scared that I could hardly breathe.

Funny how quickly I contradicted myself within seconds. I said I was no longer interested in her, that I was happy for her being with someone else.

Why then was my heartbeat skipping so fast? Why was I getting a minor panic attack at the idea of her being in the hospital?

"I don't know."

"What??" I yelled, grabbing his neck tightly.

"I don't know where. I just..."

"How did you know about this?" Henry asked in a cool voice.

"I... I saw her leaving your company, so I decided to follow her. And... I saw an ambulance coming to carry her. That's all, I swear."

An ambulance! That means it was very serious.

What the hell happened?

"Who was she with? Was she alone?"

He shook his head**,** looking so terrified of me and the way I grabbed his neck.

"She wasn't alone. She was with a guy... a handsome

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 49 – This Is It. The End of Our Story

    ALEXANDER'S POV I paused and stared at both of them, who still seemed oblivious to my presence in the room. My heart squeezed with both anger and a slight pain as I watched Charles beside her, his hand wrapped protectively around hers. Suddenly, he turned to the door. His expression shifted from concern to outright hostility the moment his eyes landed on me. Katherine, pale and fragile-looking, turned her head slightly, her breath hitching when she saw me standing in the doorway. For a moment, no one spoke. The machines beeped in the background, filling the suffocating silence, and the sound of my still-racing heart filled my ears. I didn't want to go further. I stared directly at Katherine, her eyes looking so empty and her face pale. It was the first time I was seeing her that way since the day she was hospitalized back then. After some moments of consideration, I stepped forward, my throat tight. "Katherine..." Charles stood up almost immediately, his hands outstr

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 50 – Wait... Alexander Was That Worried About Me?

    KATHERINE'S POV The door slammed shut behind Alexander, the sound echoing like a gunshot in the sterile hospital room. My chest tightened, my fingers gripping the sheets until my knuckles turned white. "I won’t bother you anymore." His words looped in my mind, sharp and final. This was what I wanted, wasn’t it? For him to walk away? To stop reopening old wounds? I wanted to forget everything, right? I should be happy and satisfied that he had finally decided to leave me. Then why did it feel like my ribs were cracking? Why did it hurt? Why did it feel like I would never see him again? Maybe because I was worried that he would try and do something else to me. Maybe because I was scared that he would come back for Franklin. But his last words resounded in my ears, and I knew that he meant them. Alexander was everything but a scoundrel. He was a man of his word, and if he said that he didn't want to have anything to do with me again, then he meant it. "You shouldn't have been t

    KATHERINE'S POV"So here's the deal, we need to make sure that the design is outstanding, since it's the first of its kind. We want to attract a lot of people, especially the young ones, so we'll love it if you keep these in mind while creating the designs for the collaboration project."I nodded my head as I stared at Henry. It's been a week since I was hospitalized, since I had that argument with Alexander, and surprisingly, he kept to his word.As soon as I got the email from RodaTech informing me about the project starting today, I knew immediately that Alexander was going all formal with me.But I never expected it to be this serious.He didn't show up for the meeting we had this morning, and now, as we discussed the issue of the design, he was nowhere to be found.It was unlike him.Alexander would never sit out on a project that he considers serious or important, and the fact that he chose to stay out of it, sending Henry to represent him, shows a lot about how hurt he is.I wa

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 52 – She followed me

    ALEXANDER'S POVThe house was bustling with activities, caterers arguing, event planners chattering, and the giggles of Susan and her girls.I was grateful for the distraction. It was enough to make me forget... at least for some time.For the past few weeks, I'd been actively avoiding Katherine, refusing to show up at the meetings and making sure that I didn't accidentally bump into her like I did the other day, and for what it's worth, it was successful enough.But I still had the jarring pain in my heart whenever I thought of her. I still dream about her, the words she said to me, the things she did, and the way she looked at me like I was nothing but trouble for her.Leaving her alone was the right decision to make, but it still hurts. Hearing her voice as I walk past the conference room, seeing her walk out of the lobby, and the torture of knowing that she was that close to me yet I couldn't approach her.I sighed heavily and walked out to the balcony of my room overlooking the g

    KATHERINE'S POV My eyes closed as he pressed his lips to mine. Every inch of my brain screamed for me to leave, to push him away and exit the room but it was almost impossible.I didn't know how badly I wanted him until I felt the taste of his tongue in mine; the mixture of rum, coffee and something sweet.I missed him!He pulled me closer and I sighed softly, leaning more into his body and wrapping my arms around his neck.This wasn't what I planned to do. this shouldn't be happening.Alexander and I were over, what we had was in the past.But just for now. For today.I want to push everything away from my mind; the past, the pain and the revenge I planned,everything.Only for today.He wrapped his arms tightly around my waist sending shivers down my spine at his touch and I let out a moan against his lips.I badly wanted him to take me and to claim me.

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 1 - I want a divorce!

    KATHERINE'S POVThe thunder boomed outside, rattling the windows. A shiver ran down my spine—not from the storm, but from the heavy uncertainty as I sat glued to the TV, struggling to comprehend what I was seeing. This had to be some kind of nightmare. My words tumbled out, barely coherent, as the news headline hit me like a freight train. My heart felt utterly crushed as I watched Alex with his arm around her waist, both of them grinning, while I clutched the document in my hands.The doctor's voice echoed in my mind: “Congratulations, Mrs. Blake. You are pregnant.” All I wanted was to come home tonight and share the news with my husband, celebrating our first anniversary, only to be blindsided by this headline on the screen.“Is this really the return of the billionaire CEO's ex-girlfriend? A pregnancy for the CEO himself?” I muttered the headline to myself. Just then, I heard footsteps on the stairs. I looked up to see Alex and Astra laughing together, Astra wrapped in a towel and

    KATHERINE'S POV The loud ringtone jolted me awake, and I stretched my body, trying to shake off the remnants of sleep. How long had I been out? Reality hit me hard—my reality. I grabbed my phone and noticed a slew of missed calls from my dad, along with my stepmom and stepsister. I didn’t need to guess why they were calling. They were probably just looking to get under my skin, especially my stepmom and her daughter.I made my way to the bathroom, preparing for the day ahead—all for the man I loved. If I could just convince him that I was pregnant with his child, maybe—just maybe—he would finally listen and love me more. Just then, my ringtone blared again, and I saw it was my best friend, Hazel. I quickly hung up and turned off my phone. The last thing I wanted right now was to talk to anyone other than Alexander.After a final look in the mirror, I headed to my car. The drive to Alexander’s company, the Starlight Building, was a blur of anxiety. As soon as I stepped out, the securi

    KATHERINE'S POVIt was almost four in the afternoon when I took one last look at the hospital building as my Uber pulled up. I must have sighed a million times, lost in my thoughts. It’s been nearly two weeks, and I haven’t heard from anyone—not my best friend, my family, or even Alexander. I couldn’t really blame them, though; I had lost my phone. I ended up paying the hospital bills with the black card Alexander had given me through the doctor. I think it was the money he promised to give me. I didn’t want to use it, but I felt completely helpless and had no other choice.“We’re here,” the Uber driver announced, snapping me out of my thoughts. I paid him with the black card, and his surprised look was exactly what I expected. After he finished, I tucked the card into my small purse and stood in front of the massive building that I once called home. Ever since marrying Alexander, I felt a strange disconnect from my family. They must have heard about what happened, or maybe they hadn’

    ALEXANDER'S POV"You did what?" I roared as I threw my head forward, clutching my stomach as I burst into laughter.Henry stared at me with a pointed look on his face, and I could tell that my laughter was only further fueling his anger and frustration as he sighed loudly and folded his arms."I already told you.""Wow. I didn't think you'd go that low.""You said we need to find out before them at all costs. Wasn't that obviously referring to the fact that we should do whatever it takes?" His words barely came out through his clenched teeth, and I knew that I had no other choice but to stop laughing.I sniffed and wiped my eyes with the back of my palm as I tried to compose myself."Yeah, but telling her that you're in love with her is definitely out of the question. I mean, why would you? She obviously wouldn't believe you."He scoffed."Well, didn't I think of that? I thought she would at least buy it if I confessed that I've been in love with her since when Katherine was married t

    KATHERINE'S POV"So, what do you plan on doing?" Charles asked, finally breaking the silence as we both sat on the car's bonnet, staring at the sky."About what?" I asked, turning to face him.The past few minutes, we've been sitting together in silence, each of us lost in our own thoughts, and I tried so hard not to think about anything. But suddenly, he was bringing everything back."The whole issue with Alexander. Are you sure you're still comfortable working with him? I mean, aside from the fact that he's your ex-husband, he's also your son's father. Do you really think you can work with him without getting any... uhm... emotions involved? Why are you working with him in the first place?"I sighed softly as he echoed the questions I've been pushing away from my thoughts since the day I realized that I would never be able to fully get over Alexander."I have to. I didn't know that I was working with him. I didn't know that he was the CEO of RodaTech. I didn't know he built a new co

    KATHERINE'S POVThe ride back home was suffocating. The silence was tense and awkward.I could tell that Charles had a lot on his mind, a lot of questions to ask me—especially after that last encounter with Alex—but he was keeping quiet for my benefit, and I was grateful for it.At least until I blinked and realized that I wasn't going back home."Where are we going?" I asked, looking around, confused, as he took a left turn instead of a right."Somewhere quiet."His voice was calm and collected; it was almost impossible to guess what was on his mind."My house is quiet..."He turned to stare at me with a smile on his face."No, it isn't. You need somewhere you can cool off. I can't be taking all that energy to Franklin."I sighed softly and turned my face away under his scrutiny.He was right. I couldn't let myself be easily influenced by my emotions and definitely couldn't allow it to affect Franklin.But the question hovered in my mind as I leaned back in my seat and eyed him from
