Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 69
Elena’s POV:I walked to the rooftop with my gym wear, and I sat on a fluffy rug. I needed sunlight, and I also resumed some exercises and meditation. To get better and see if there would be a chance of me getting pregnant again. I waited for Zoey’s arrival. She is like the sister and family that I never had. She is so caring. It's been two weeks since my fight with Nicklaus, and I have not even set my eyes on him. I had been trying so hard to be fine, but it was almost impossible. My husband and I always promised each other to be there for one another and not let anything come to separate us. We were like best friends, but now we have turned into strangers. Zoey always made sure she was there for me and kept me from thinking so much about it. I had also been stressing myself and hoping to get pregnant soon for Nicklaus, but I don't think it will happen anytime soon. I have been on a diet and exercising properly just to see that it works, but one needs enough sex to get pregnant,

Sarah’s POV:I quickly walked upstairs into the hallway when I heard voices coming from downstairs. My father and Elena are at it again. It seems they are both exchanging words, and I couldn’t care less about it.I increased my pace while I tiptoed so that I wouldn't be caught. I just needed to do what had brought me here without anybody suspecting me. Deep down, I was excited that things were getting heated down there. I hoped it would last to buy enough time for myself. Now I have to make use of this opportunity, so I hastened my steps and hurriedly stepped into Elena's room. I walked into Nicklaus’s room, but somehow the room was empty. I looked around, but I didn't see a trace of Elena’s stuff. I couldn't understand what was going on. Had she moved out of their room already? That would be a question for some other time. I quickly moved out and opened the different rooms when I found where Elena's stuff was. I realised that Elena and Nicklaus's marriage had taken a different turn

Sarah walked out of the house, joining her father in the car with a satisfied smile on her face.“Father, I heard noises. I hope you didn't take it too hard on yourself,” she asked calmly. “No, I didn't. Someone just needs to put Elena in her place,” he responded, his face filled with so much worry. Sarah tried to calm her father and assured him that everything would be alright. She knew that if her plans worked, then her father would have more than he had in his company. Nicklaus had discharged all of the board members after he found out who sold his shares, and he immediately sent for Mr. Xavier again. He wanted to make sure that he was clear on the issue before taking action. “He will be sued if he doesn't arrive in my office in the next 30 minutes,” he said. He kept on wondering in his heart while all these allegations were pointing towards Elene. He had known her to be so sweet and innocent. “Is Elena not who she claims to be? I thought she was innocent and kind-hearted,” h

Elena’s POV:I lay on my bed, still sobbing from an argument I just had with my dad. I hadn't felt this used in my life.All they just wanted was for me to fulfil my own part of the deal. I was even feeling satisfied that Nicklaus and I had found love, but I couldn't understand what was going on. There was nobody to stand up and fight for me. I am weak. Irina sat beside me as she consoled me. I cried continuously when I heard a loud sound coming from the hallway.I sat upright and whipped my eyes while giving Irinaa a questioning look. “Who are those?” I asked, narrowing my eyes. I quickly stood up and opened the door when I saw Nicklaus and three of his bodyguards. Nicklaus's eyes fell on me. “Oh, there you are,” he said, and he walked into my room. I quickly stood up. “Nicklaus, what's going on?” I asked, narrowing my eyes and waiting for answers.He scanned the room and fixed his eyes on me. “I see you have moved into this room. What are you hiding?” He asked, boring deeply in
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 73
Elena’ POV:My eyes were wide open, and I was taken aback by what had just happened.What could we be talking about? Was I dumb enough to sign on some dumb papar, or was this a set-up?I raised my head to look at Nicklaus and everybody. The bodyguards worked out of the room, and my eyes landed on everyone standing in the doorway. I felt embarrassed, and I felt like the ground should open up and swallow me. My father walked out of the room immediately, and Sarah followed him from behind. Irina and Zoey quickly walked out of the room, leaving me and Nicklaus alone in the room. Tears rolled down my cheeks, and I didn't know when I started sobbing. Nicklaus gave me a daring look. He walked up to me, his eyes never leaving mine. “Cut that shit and wipe these crocodile tears. Now I know what your mission is in this marriage. Do you know who I am that you are trying to steal from me?” I took a step forward and held onto his hand. “Nicklaus, please. I have no idea what is going on,” I pl
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 74
Nicklaus’s POV:I stormed out of the room in anger. Elena couldn't even prove herself, which means everything was true. She claimed to love me, but it had been a plot all this time to steal from me. I hurriedly walked out of the room; my feet were heavy with pain and anger. I walked down the hallway, and footsteps echoed in the hallway. I walked out of the house to the waiting car parked in front of the building, collected the keys from the driver, and took the driver's seat. I adjusted the mirrors, tightened my seat belts, and put the car into gear. I zoomed off into the streets of Los Angeles.I was driving at full speed, and my anger was rising. My hands held the shell tightly, and I felt a rush of adrenaline in my body. I just wanted to go far away—away from my problems, away from Elena. Was she in touch with her ex-fiance? Was she planning to use my money and run away with him? I think that is the reason she always had nightmares. Did he threaten her to do it because she could
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 75
Sarah followed her father from behind as they arrived at the house. Mr. Williams angrily walked out of the car and went into the house. He walked straight to the study, and he could feel his blood boiling through his veins. He could not imagine Elena carrying out such an act. He didn't even know what to believe. She had been helping him out with his company, and not a single dime went missing, which made him ask himself a question. Was he just afraid of standing up for Elena so that the Coleman family wouldn't take it out on him and end their collaboration with his company?If he had stood for Elena, he knew that he would be risking everything, so he just kept quiet. Sarah followed her father from behind, and he sat on the chair and poured a glass of whisky into his cup. He gulped it down immediately, and his eyes reddened. He doesn't even know how to react.“Father, please take it easy on yourself,” she said, trying to calm him down. Knowing that everything would be alright soon b
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 76
Nicklaus’s POV:I walked into my office building and ignored all of the greetings from my employees. I removed my jacket and hung it on the hanger. My eyes were heavy as I sat in my office chair. It was a new day, and I had not gotten enough rest. I could barely sleep last night after the whole drama with Elena. I slept alone last night in my other penthouse, thinking it would help me, but it didn't. I wanted my space and to be away from Elena. I decided to work for some time before taking a quick break. I checked all of the blueprints and made some corrections. I quietly made out all of the errors and asked them to do it again. They wouldn't like to see my angry mode if I allowed myself to lose control. “This blueprint has a lot of corrections,” I said on the intercom as I communicated with one of the teams. “I pointed out the errors by making circles; get them done before the end of today,” I ordered before hanging up. I was typing on my laptop when a knock came through my doo

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.
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 192
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

Nicklaus lay on the hospital bed, but he was feeling uneasy about the whole situation. Anna saw him by the doorway as he struggled; she helped him out, “Nicklaus, you can't leave. You haven't fully recovered,”Nicklaus father arrived and was surprised to see Nicklaus leave. “I have to go help Elena. I want to be by her side,” Nicklaus spoke.“I am tired of being told what to do. Please get me out of here.”Mr. Coleman and the nurse agreed; they threw Nicklaus out of the hospital in a wheelchair. They got into the car, and after what felt like forever, they arrived at the penthouse.“Nicklaus walked in to see Zoey and Alex pacing around without Elena. He looked around, hoping to see her come out, but she didn't.“Where is Elena?”“She left with Sarah. I am still trying to track her location,” Alex said. Immediately, Nicklaus reached for one of my keys and rushed out of the penthouse. He reached for my car and zoomed off. He took his car tracker and tracked Sarah’s location.Alex, An

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

Elena’s POV: I stayed up all night with my father and Nicklaus. Nicklaus’s bodyguards surrounded his room together with the police as he gave his statement. I also have my statement, and I felt relieved that he is now guarded. Alex, Zoey, and Jason arrived and stayed with me all night long. Jason had refused to sleep. He played with my father; I watched them as I smiled. They looked so happy. They laughed and joked until they both fell asleep.I had a little sleep on the couch. Zoey and Alex went home to rest. It was morning, and I blinked, my eyes opened. The police stopped by my father’s ward as they searched for Sarah. She had been on the run since last night, and we have not heard from her. 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 walked up to him, “Who was that?” he asked.I exhaled deeply, “Father, it's the police. Unfortunately, Sarah is wanted,” I spoke.

Sarah‘s POV:I ran out of the hospital as fast as I could before the security would catch up with me. I got into my car and zoomed off. 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. I carried all of his diamond jewellery and some bundles of dollars. My eyes fell on a pistol, and I picked it up. “This would be enough to get me to terminate him and El

I slowly opened the door to see Nicklaus up and active, even though he looked pale.He smiled warmly when he set my eyes on me.“How are you doing today?” I asked, leaning to kiss him on the forehead. “You gave us a scare.”“I am doing just fine,” he said, and we kissed again when Sarah opened the door. “So this is what you both had been doing in my back? 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
