Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 78
Elena’s POV:I stayed in my room all morning without going anywhere. I woke up on the floor and soaked it in my sweat. My eyes were still filled with tears, and I had a hiccup from so much crying.There was a knock on the door, and a familiar voice spoke up: “Good morning, ma'am; it's Irina. May I come in?” she asked.I sniffed and exhaled. “Come in,” I said, wiping my eyes. The door was opened slowly, and she rushed to me, seeing the state that I was in. “Ma’am, are you alright?” she asked, scanning my whole body and looking around."Ma’am, did you even get so much sleep?” she asked.I ignored her and spoke up, “Irina, prepare my bath. I need to have my bath,” I said, my voice cracking and barely above a whisper. It was very hard for me to raise my voice and speak.“Right away, ma'am,” she said, and she walked into the closet. She turned on the bath water and mixed the essential oils. The lovely fragrance filled the room. All my bones were hurting from lying on the floor, but I man

Elena‘s words caught him off guard, and he became mute immediately. That's when he realised that he had never really cared; all he just wanted was the child so that he could acquire more wealth.Nicklaus's phone rang immediately, and she felt relieved from the distractions. He reached out into his pocket and took out the phone to see who it was. The call didn't last for 30 seconds, and he hung up the call.He turned to Elena and said, “You better sign the divorce paper before I get back or deal with the consequences.” He warned, turning on his heels and walking out of the room.Elena sat on the floor with tears streaming down her face. She could not imagine how her life could totally change in a few months. Just when she thought her life had changed for the better.“I know he is capable of this, but could it be that he set me up?” she asked herself but shook her head immediately.Her hands trembled as she looked at the divorce papers. The more she looked at it, the more everything lo

Nicklaus halted in his tracks, and his eyes widened. He turned around and fixed his gaze on Mr. Mike. “What do you mean she left the house? He asked. He didn't wait for Mr. Mike’s response. He walked into her room to search for her, but she was nowhere to be found. His eyes fell on the divorce papers on the bed, and he picked them up.He saw that she had already signed the papers, and his heart pounded hard against his chest. “Fuck!” he exclaimed.Why would she leave the house without telling me? He wondered to himself. Where would she go because he knew that her family would not accept her? Nicklaus brought out his car keys and walked into the hallway, but something made him stop in his tracks. He wondered what he was doing. “Elena is not a child; she can take care of herself. I don't care where she goes to. We are already divorced,” he said and walked to his room. He turned on the shower and allowed the cold water to cascade down his body.Meanwhile, Elena walked alone in the st

Elena’s POV:I looked to see a car stopped in front of me, and the car door was opened. A tall guy came down the car and approached me. The figure looked so much like Nicklaus, but when he came closer, it was a completely different person. It was Alex.He stood tall, and his looks were imposing; his facial expression was serious. “Let go of her,” he ordered the guys, and they all giggled. “And if we don't? What are you going to do, man?” one of the guys asked. He turned around and stood in front of Alex.Alex gave them a daring look, and they slowly moved away. “Hey, bro. Relax. We only wanted to have fun. You can have her,” they said and walked out. Alex's eyes fell on him, and he rushed to sit close to me. “Elena, why are you out here alone?” he asked. I exhaled deeply and gathered the courage to speak. “Well, I have nowhere else to go,” I responded with a trembling voice.“Come with me; you need to get rest,” he spoke. I held on to him, and he opened the car door for me. It w

It was morning, and Elena’s eyes opened. She stirred on the bed and stretched her body while yawning. She had not had a good sleep in a long time.She felt really happy for Alex coming to her rescue. What would have happened to her if she was put there alone? Somehow she thought Nicklaus would come to her, but he didn't. Alex woke up very early to prepare breakfast for Elena. He tried all of his best to help her relax. Seeing the way she broke down yesterday. When he was done cocking, he nervously arranged the meal on a wooden tray and walked up to her doorway, gently knocking on her door.“Come in,” she responded as she sat upright on the bed. Alex walked into the room with a smile on his face. “Good morning, Elena. I hope you rested well,” “Good morning, yes, I did thank you,” she responded and smiled.“You prepared breakfast this early?” she asked as she looked at the tray."Well, you need to eat something and refuel,” he spoke while walking to meet her. Elena perceived the n

Elena’s POV:Tears effortlessly rolled down my cheeks. He is not wrong after all. My father might not have mentioned it to me, but I knew he was patiently waiting for me to play my own part in the contracof the marriage. I have tried very hard to conceive, but it was as if the stress of everything was making all of my efforts in vain.“And there she goes with her fake tears,” Sarah spoke up. “Oh, don't give me that look. You know exactly what I am talking about,”“You are a shame to this family and to yourself, Elena. I regret the day I picked you up from the street into this family,” my father spoke. My eyes widened, and my jaw dropped. I couldn't believe such words would come out of my father's mouth.I sobbed continuously, and Alex held me in his arms. I have had enough, and I have to say my mind.“Father, you have always said those words to me. I know that I am not a Williams, and if you knew you would always use this against me, maybe you shouldn't have picked me up from the st

Elena stood there in shock. She didn't believe that these two had been playing her all along. Nicklaus walked up to her with the coldest look she had ever seen, and tears streamed down her eyes. She shook her head tirelessly. “No, this isn't true,” she said.Nicklaus closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. “It is the truth, Elena,” he confessed. “How could you do this to me, Nicklaus? You made me fall in love, and all this while you have had an eye for my sister,” I shouted.Sarah shut me up. “I am not your sister. Besides, we are not related by blood,” she spoke; her voice was stern. "Elena, you couldn't give my son what he wants. Sarah could,” Nicklaus's father spoke while walking forward to Elena.“Nicklaus I loved you,” Elena spoke and walked up to him. Holding his jacket while sobbing. “We love each other. I know you still feel something got me deep down. We can't let this marriage die off,”“The marriage is over, Elena. Move on with your life. Get a life and leave me the fuck al

Elena’s POV:The police walked up and stood behind me. She hurriedly reached for my two hands and placed them on my back. Her grip hurt, but I didn't struggle with her because I knew it would only get worse if I struggled.All of my family members walked outside, including our worker, Marina. Nicklaus and his father walked outside with a serious expression on their faces. My eyes and Sarah's eyes locked, and she let out a wide grin, “Don't give me that look. You are fully aware of your crimes, Elena. Face the charges in jail. See you soon in a few years when you are out,” she spoke.Tears began to stream down my eyes. This is what my life has turned to. The shame and the humiliation that they had given me were more than enough.“You would have said you were looking for a baby-making machine,” I shouted. Nicklaus smirked and looked to the other side. Sarah waved me goodbye and smiled widely. Immediately, Zoey hurried to me, and the police stopped her from meeting me. Her face was

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.

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.

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
