Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 25
Elena’s POV:I had my shower and freshened up. I walked up to the mirror in the closet and smiled when I saw the beautiful red dress Nicklaus had gotten for me for the party that night. He sure knows my favourite colour and the kind of things I like. I styled my hair into wavy curls. My skin had been glowing, and I had been looking way prettier. I decided to apply a little makeup to frame my face.When I looked at myself in the mirror, I smiled, feeling confident in myself. I wasn't just the simple girl who had never cared to apply makeup to my face, even though I was very good at it. I finally slipped into the dress. It was a maroon dress with a huge slit that stopped at my thigh. The waist was snatched, and the dress revealed my curves, which made me look elegant.Nicklaus doesn't like me wearing fitted dresses that reveal my curves in public. He likes me wearing such a dress for him alone. Why did he get a revealing dress?“This dress is too revealing. Maybe I should just change

Elena’s POV:Beep, Beep, Beep, BeepI heard the sound of my beeping phone, and I stirred on the bed. I woke up very early in the morning and stretched as my phone rang. I reached for my phone and looked at the screen. I sluggishly opened my eyes and looked through the screen.It was Nicklaus calling. He had travelled to Germany for a business meeting, and he had been calling me nonstop. We had been missing each other, and we were always speaking on the phone. I picked it up immediately. I had missed his voice badly. We spoke for some time, and I began feeling nauseous and tired. I had been feeling sick for a while, so I went back to bed, hoping to sleep off and gather enough strength for the day.I woke up after a few hours and felt worse than before. I managed to roll out of bed and walk into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and splashed water on my face to revive myself. The cool water made me feel refreshed.As I looked in the mirror, I knew something was wrong. I couldn't explain

Sarah’s POV: “It's not quite long since you came back from your honeymoon. I think you should do a pregnancy test, ma'am.” I heard noises coming from Elena's room.My eyes widened in shock, and I felt my jaw clench in my face. I couldn't believe what I had just heard. The word repeated itself in my mind. How could Elena be pregnant so soon?Pregnancy? Elena? This is not good for me. No, this had ruined my plans. Immediately my facial expression hardened. It was too hard to keep smiling. I just faked a smile and walked into the room to catch up with Elena. *** Earlier this morning****Earlier today, I woke up very early in the morning, and I was determined to pay a visit to Elena. I wanted to see if she was truly happy, just like what I read in the blogs, or if she had been in pain.I was aware that her husband was a billionaire’s heir, but I couldn't believe that he was healthy. All this time, I thought he was crippled, just like his old father. I lived my life full of regret, know

Elena’s POV:I wanted to object to Irina's suggestion, but I was caught off guard when the door was swung open. I turned around to see who it was, expecting to see Zoey, who had just returned to Los Angeles.I couldn't believe it was Sarah standing in the doorway. I looked at her like I had seen a ghost.What could she be doing here? None of my family cared to visit me ever since I got married and moved in here.I stood up from the bed, my heart beating fast as I looked at her. What is she doing here? Is she up to something again?"Sarah? What are you doing here?" I asked calmly.I remembered how she set me up on my wedding day and ruined everything, but that her plan made me happy.Her facial expression was mixed with sadness and regret, and I frowned at her and walked to the other side of the room.I looked through the window. I wasn't ready to have any conversation with her, and at the same time I couldn't send her out of my house. She slowly walked into the room and stood close t

Elena’s POV:“Zoey.” I called and wrapped my arms around her, and she hugs me tightly. “How have you been?” I nodded my head and smiled widely. “I am doing just fine.”Zoey turned in Sarah’s direction, who was standing on the other side of the room. “What are you doing here again? Haven't you caused enough harm already?” She asked, her voice stern.“I know I am not proud of what I did, and that is why I came here to apologize. I did it for the company, for Caleb’s heart,” she said.“Don't you dare mention that name again? I forbid you to mention that name where Elena is.” Zoey spoke, her voice rising.I walked up to Zoey and held her hands. “Zoey, common. It's a thing of the past, and I have moved on with my life. The most important thing here is that she has realised what she did and has come to apologise." I spoke calmly and gently. Zoey exhaled deeply, and she turned to me and said, “As long as you are now happy, that is what matters right now.” She spoke and reached for my hands

Nicklaus’ POV: Two days ago.It had been a long day at work for me. I sat behind the desk and operated my laptop. I stood up and walked around to see how the new application design was carried out.I and my team worked hand in hand to see that everything was perfect and going smoothly. I have been working to bring the company to its feet and maintain the position of being the first in the world.I got carried away with work, and before I knew it, the day had passed.

Elena’s POV:I held the test strips in my hands as I looked at the result. Zoey and Irina gave me a questioning look. I looked at them in confusion, and the words couldn't come out of my throat. I could not believe what I was seeing. It was as if it were all a dream. This is what Nicklaus and my family ever wanted. “Elena!” I heard a sound coming from the room. I raised my eyes because the voice was familiar and the door was swung open. It was Nicklaus. He quickly opened the door to run to me, but he froze when he saw what was in my hand. My breath ceased as I looked at him. My heart was beating fast, and my excitement was growing. “Did you?” he asked while he stuttered. “Did you take the test?” he asked. I nodded my head with a smile on my lips as I pressed my lips into a thin line. “I did the test,” I said. “What?” he asked. His gaze moved to the test strips. “I did the test.” I spoke out loud, and Nicklaus watched me in disbelief. I showed him the result, and his eyes widen

Sarah's POV:My heart was filled with so much, and I was getting frustrated. My blood was boiling through my veins and felt like I would explode any minute. I couldn't believe what I had just witnessed. Elena looked happy and glowed. She was living her best life while I was here, jubilating that she was in a hell hole. I could not believe she and Nicklaus turned out to be in love and built a very strong relationship. I had separated her from Caleb because I knew that he would make her happy, and now Nicklaus is making her happier. I regretted my actions. Nicklaus is even more handsome in person. I had been dreaming of ending with such a man, and now Elena had him to herself. Nicklaus is very handsome and has fallen in love with Elena. I saw all of their activities on the blogs, but I thought the bloggers were lying. My blood was boiling, and I felt very angry. If I had known, I would have gotten married to Nicklaus.

Elena’s POV:Its been a few weeks, my biological father had been buried of course without my step sister and my step mother. They had been on the run and nobody knew where they both were. Amelia had been our responsibility. I stood in the window and stayed at the whole city in my black dress. I had been mourning all day.I wished I spend a lot of time with my father. I wish I fekt his presence in my life. After a while, Anna joined me and she held my hands gently. “Williams, your father was a good man. You shouldn't blame him for what happened. He was blindfolded. Please. Find a place in your heart to forgive him,” she spoke.She exhaled deeply and continued, “I also need you to forgive me Elena even though I knew that I shouldn't have gave you up but I couldn't give you the life that you needed. I wanted you to have everything in the world. I was dying in poverty. You were sick Elena. That was the only way I could restore your health,” she explained and tears rolled down her eyes.

Elena’s POV:I knew that I could keep concealing the truth fromNicklaus. It had already been confirmed. Nicklaus had the right to know. This is the best time to let him know. Tears rolled down my eyes, and I was not able to control them. "Yes, Nicklaus, Jason is your son,” I confessed, my voice cracking hard. Nicklaus was stunned, and he looked at me deeply in the eyes. “Why? Why did you keep it away from me? After all these years,” he asked, tears streaming down his face. I crossed my arms across my chest and sniffed, “Well, yes. I had to protect my son. I had to protect you from people like Sarah. You abandoned me. What would you have me for Nicklaus?” I spoke as he continued to sob.Tears rolled Nicklaus’s eyes, and he became emotional. He quickly found a spot to sit in so that he would catch his breath.“I had the right to know about it, Elena. Why did you keep such from me?” he asked.“I...” I began to stutter. I didn't know where to begin or what to say. I was in so much pa

Nicklaus’s POV: My eyes widened, and I was stunned. That was when I knew that something was fishy. I checked the birthmark and mine, and it was exactly the same and in the same position.“This has got to be a joke,” I muttered silently. “Could it be? Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked, but I shook my head and tried to brush it off. My blood and his blood were compatible. He is 5 years old. The exact time Elena and I divorced.Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked myself the question repeatedly all night long. I didn't even get enough sleep. I remembered how he would smile at me. His eyes and his smile were similar to mine. His black curly hair. Noe, everything is beginning to make sense.If Jason is my child, why did Elena decide to keep it away from me? I kept wondering. I couldn't wait for the day to break so that I would confront Elena.Everything is beginning to reveal itself. I have to get to the root of this. I watched as Jason slept, and I made sure that he was

I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly. I shook my head and struggled with him to leave my hand as I got out of bed. “No, I can't sit here while my son is taken away from me; I have to find him. I am sure Sarah took my child,” I shouted.Nicklaus and Sam walked up to me and said, "Please Elena. Let's get home and wait for the authorities. You have to trust me on this, I assure you. We will find your son,” Nicklaus spoke, and I became calm instantly.“How can I go home when my boy is missing?” I cried out.I held onto Nicklaus, and my head rested on his chest as I sobbed. “I want my boy,” I cried out.Nicklaus stroked his hands through my hair. “He will be found; you have to trust me,” he spoke. “I don't want to go home. I want to wait here. I know Sarah will come back here,” I said. “It's fin

When my father woke up to hear the news of Sarah’s crimes and her disappearance last night, he became weak. I noticed his mood, and I tried to cheer him on.

I was breathing very hard as I drove with tears in my eyes.Elena really hurt me, and blood was coming out of my lips. She punched me really hard. I drank off as I wiped my lips. I wish I had completed my mission in killing Nicklaus. I planned to run away with his money and go far away. It would have been a silent deal, and he would have shut up for like. But right now, I am in trouble. He would not keep quiet. He would expose me and tell the world everything that he had found out.I have to go far away. Very far away, where nobody would be able to find me. I will make sure I execute my plans there. After what felt like forever, I arrived at the house and broke into Nicklaus safe.

You are a social climber, Elena. “Sarah, not now. I had already signed the divorce papers. You have to play your own part,” Nicklaus spoke.She walked up to me and gave me a daring look. “You are a scumbag,” she spoke and turned to Nicklaus. “I will make sure you pay for it,” she warned and walked out of the room.“I have to go be with my dad right now. I will see you later,” I said and walked out of the room. I walked to my father’s room to see my father lying weakly on the bed. I ran to him, “Fat
