Her Ex-husband's Regret CHAPTER 33
CHAPTER 34Serene After my recent encounter with Cruz, I am starting to sense chemistry, but I am not sure if I should go ahead and say yes. I am not sure if Miguel is even ready to have another man staying with us as his father. I do not want to make a hasty decision; even if Cruz is a nice man who would adore my baby unconditionally, I just want to be alone with Miguel until he is old enough. Rina texted me while I was still racing through my thoughts. I checked her massaged status before responding. As usual, she asked me to arrive early since we were having a board meeting.The next morning, I awoke and made Miguel's breakfast; even though I have a maid, I prefer to cook my son's breakfast every day before I go to work. When I was done, I got dressed for work and went to kiss him while he was still sleeping. He was adorable and innocent; the fact that he resembled Diego reminded me of his father, but I did my hardest to suppress that sensation. After the kiss, I went to greet Mig

CHAPTER 34Serene What should I do now? I cannot believe Charlotte would be that reckless. She knows how powerful Diego is; I am not sure whether I am safe anymore. Damn, the day was already going terribly; first, I was told we had signed a contract with his firm, and now he knows about Miguel. My pulse was beating as Rina stood in front of me, wondering what was wrong. "Ma'am, is everything okay?" she asked, but what could I possibly tell her? "Please get the car ready; we are leaving," I responded, and she walked out instantly. Diego would find me in minutes if not seconds, so I needed to hurry home and take Miguel away if necessary. I grabbed my handbag and headed for the vehicle. The guard opened the door, and I jumped inside.My thoughts were scattered, and I did not appear to be at peace. Charlotte tried to call, but I could not answer. When we arrived home, I hurried into the house. I walked into the living room, but it was completely vacant. "Miguel," I yelled, anticipating a

CHAPTER 35Diego When I looked at the photo of Serene and a small boy that the Detective had handed me, my heart softened and raced. I am not sure why I was so sure he was mine, despite George's doubts. I could feel a deep tie between the child and me. "Sir, will you be attending the meeting in Texas?" George inquired."No, book me the next flight to London," I responded, walking upstairs to gather my belongings."Sir, that is impossible at this hour. All the flights headed there have already gone," George stated, stepping up behind me.I turned back and glanced at him before continuing, "George, make sure I am in London within the next 24 hours. Figure it out on your own, OK.""Sir, this is a tough task, and I am not even sure how I will go about it; perhaps you should—I cut him off."There is no room for any maybes; I am sure I pay you handsomely, so get me a damn jet to London right now," I said, this time more seriously. He walked downstairs without saying anything, while I wen

CHAPTER 36Diego After that chat with George, I could not get myself to eat. I simply got some juice and waited for George to take me to the airport. I have done all kinds of awful things to Serene emotionally; I have never touched her physically to beat her or do anything that would leave marks on her body, but the amount of mental torment I have inflicted on her has begun to plague me. I truly was a monster to the one woman who accepted me for who I was. My ignorance prompted me to divorce her for Nelly, but I was simply being imprisoned.Everything was a nightmare during the years I was without Serene; I had to compromise because I hoped Nelly would change her ways, but she just became worse by the day. I do not regret spending millions on her in a week; I simply regret making the wrong decision in the first place. I was still wondering if Serene and her son would ever forgive me. "Sir, calm down; you are thinking too much," George said, shaking my shoulder."You will not understa

CHAPTER 37Diego We strolled into my uncle's mansion, and everything still seemed the same; I knew what each room was and what I expected to see next. My body began to quiver, and I became uneasy; all I wanted was for George not to implicate my uncle but he did. We went into the living room and drank coffee together, while the maid went to arrange my room. We conversed a little."So, are you sure you are only here for business?" Cruz inquired again, his voice concealing his interest."Yes, that is correct; I am simply here for that," I replied, my confidence shining through."So, what is the name of the firm you will be working with?" he asked."It is a KATARAYO Agency; I hope you know about it," I replied."Oh, yeah, I do, but why would you want to waste my father's money on companies like that? I mean, is everyone eager to work with you" He questioned."I want to gain a wider reputation for myself; governing New York is not enough; I need to partner with a behemoth of international

CHAPTER 38Serene Miguel now refuses to go to Australia with Mia, which makes me very concerned. He did not feel secure leaving me alone, and I could not help but cry in his presence. The next morning, I awoke and immediately prepared breakfast for everyone because I had no plans to go to work. When I was finished, I went to Miguel's room and asked him to clean his teeth before going for breakfast. He stared at himself in the bathroom mirror and inquired, "Mommy, do I resemble my daddy?" My heart skipped a beat since I had not anticipated him to say that."Mommy," he murmured, turning to face me when he realized I was not replying."Umm, sure, honey, you look just like him," I replied, looking aside as I struggled to hold back the tears."OK, I will go get my food now," he responded, running downstairs as Mia called out for him."Be careful, Miguel," I whispered as he hurried out.I hurriedly washed my face with water and glanced into the mirror. My heart was beating faster and my ey

CHAPTER 39Diego So far, the day is going well, but I haven't started my search. If George had not told my uncle I was coming, I would have spent the entire time at a hotel plotting how I was going to find Serene. I now have to pass by the KATARAYO Agency only to make it appear that I am here for business; my uncle finding out about Serene and the child would endanger their lives. As the evening neared, I prepared and left for KATARAYO AGENCIES’. Their guard led me inside the boarding room, where I found everyone except one individual. They were the biggest investor; they were supposed to welcome me but could not make it owing to other commitments."Mr. Myers, please excuse us for the inconvenience," the supervisor apologized."It is okay, Mr. Simon," I said, pretending to grin."Uhm, Mr. Myers, will you be staying here for long?” A lady dressed in blue inquired."I truly can not say madam, but if your boss would want to meet with me, please let her know; I want to conduct business w

CHAPTER 40Serene Going to welcome Diego would be the biggest mistake I could make; why on earth would I want him to know who I am so easily? I am not sure what Rina told them about my reason for not coming, but I instructed her to sort it out for herself. I spoke with Neina, and she advised me not to panic. I mean, how could I forget that I have become more powerful and successful than Diego in such a short period? I do not even need to send my son to Australia with his nanny; I have enough resources to protect him and myself, and Diego will never get to meet my child if I want.Different things were racing through my mind when I received a call from Neina, who verified that Diego had come for his child rather than for business. My heart skipped a beat, but I was not as afraid since I could not afford to lose myself to terror. I am not sure if it was the fear of meeting Diego or falling for him again that haunted me. Given that I had adequate protection, it became evident that the f

CHAPTER 208Serene When the lights went out at the hotel, I panicked for a bit, but the cops arrived in time. Butas not sure about Kyrell because he was the last person I expected to see. Everyone left and I was now only left with Rina and Kyrell. "I guess we should get going now," I replied, standing up and about to walk away when Kyrell reached for my hand.Perhaps he meant it reassuringly, so I smiled without overreacting. Rina stepped behind us, clearing her throat, but I was convinced she was mocking me. “Uhmm, Ms. Brights, can we have a word?" Charlotte asked and I turned around to hear what she had to say."I think it is about time I go to my apartment," she remarked, and I truly wanted to disagree, but I had to since I was only going to let her go there when she felt stable.“Are you sure?” I asked."Yes, I am ready," she said, but it was not convincing enough."Look you can go but are you sure you are fine to stay alone?’” I asked again and she assured me.“OK fine," I re

CHAPTER 207Nelly Soft instrumental music played in the background, while the aroma of sandalwood and lavender filled the air. The beds and silk drapes dividing the rooms were bathed in a golden glow from the lighting of the private parlor. Kyrell Harrison's muscles eased as he lay shirtless for a massage. I figured he must have come to relieve some of his tension and make the contributions. However, everything fell apart as we locked eyes."Kyrell Harrison," I grinned as I approached him, Sofia following."Nelly Mendoza, what a surprise; I knew you were here but did not expect to see you," he remarked, his gaze fixed on Sofia, and I prayed he did not suspect anything. “Oh, come now, Kyrell. We just happened to run into each other at the same moment. Isn't it a great coincidence?" I inquired, but Sofia chose to talk rather than wait for me to signal. “We were thinking… All those judicial skirmishes must have made you nervous. Wouldn't it be good to have someone personally look af

CHAPTER 206Serene The home felt empty, so I took a walk around the empty rooms while Miguel played with Grace. Even though my kid was becoming more and more obsessed with Wakanda, I felt that Namibia would be the best destination after the drama was over.A destination for aesthetic people. I asked Mr. Simon to send me the statistics data because I wanted the most recent information on Katarayo's progress, but I was not even surprised by what I saw. If his shares are not making any money, why in the world is he there? Which could only mean one thing.I quickly scheduled a meeting at the Hotel Bright Lights, and despite Mr. Simon's persistent calls, I declined to respond because we both knew what would happen next. I have done my best to be tolerant and patient with his issues, but it seems like he is abusing my generosity.I hurriedly changed and was ready to take the final step when I noticed Kyrell, who appeared to be grinning at me like never before.“What's with all the excite

CHAPTER 205Diego We were eating breakfast in the cafeteria when I heard a loud bang and noticed my food had been tossed to the floor by this large, heavy, tattooed guy who appeared to be ready to pound my face if I said anything. "Hey, hey, what are you doing? Get back to your seat," the guard yelled, standing between us. At this point, I was ready to be a beast.“Fight! Fight!" The other prisoner kept yelling, but my companion quickly pulled me back."Be cautious, he has killed roughly ten people here; being targeted by him could only mean one thing," he continued, and I needed to know what brought that elephant figure to me."That your enemies want you dead in here, and nobody else performs the job better than him," my pal cautioned, and I could tell by looking at him that death was all he had to offer.Could Serene want me dead? Or is it my damn uncle? Serene would never want my death, at least not while she was still alive; therefore, it was certainly my uncle.Everyone comple

CHAPTER 204Serene “Ms. Brights please it's not what you think I was just —" “Mia, you'll answer the cops. I can not believe you would try to drug my son's drink after everything," I said, shaking my head in surprise.Mia was like a sister to us. There was nothing she did not know about us, but discovering that she was the traitor in our midst felt like a horrible dream, and the fact that she was closest to my kid just made things worse. I would find a new reason to keep Miguel occupied before admitting that she would never come back in agony. "It is OK, Serene; at least we captured her," Neina murmured, caressing my back."Yeah, I know," I answered, brushing away my tears as I walked to collect my son, who was looking at cartoons. I am not sure how he became addicted, but all of his downloads revolved around it, and the many types of coloring books were something I had to get.“Mommy, why did I see the cops here?" Miguel asked, his little face drowning in worry."It is nothing, ho

CHAPTER 203Serene Charlotte and her ways of getting to cheer me up are just so crazy. I can not believe I returned Diego's ring and now have nothing linked to me other than the children. But now that he's away all his children are mine. We stepped into the massage parlor, and the agents were ecstatic to see us.I did not like the attention and begged the guards to fetch me my veil, but Charlotte appeared to be enjoying it. We headed to the VIP section, where the agents were getting their items ready.I would have lay down like Charlotte, but it was a bit uncomfortable. The ladies finished giving him massages, and the owner presented some proposals for donations, which they were asking me to attend. I promised them that someone would come from my department to attend. We returned to the car, and another call from the devil came through.“Aren't you going to pick that?" Charlotte inquired, sensing my ignorance about the approaching call."Nah, that does not matter; let us be going b

CHAPTER 202Diego I reached the visiting area and saw her sitting in the distance. The entire room was vacant, and I could not believe he had done everything for me. Serene was one of the most difficult people to persuade, but Kyrell was incredibly successful in bringing her here. She eventually turned around to face me, and our gazes locked. I could feel my heart melting and shivers covering my entire body. I am not sure what my eyes were doing at her lips, but seeing Serene was the best moment in jail."Hi," she said without a grin, and I was not expecting one, but all I wanted to do was take those hands and kiss them."How are you doing? I never thought I would see you again.”"I am OK, and this moment has to come, so now that it is here, we have to confront it," she answered.I could sense the anguish in her voice and could not believe she was so brave. I am probably among the last people she wants to see."I'm sorry for everything. I hope you find it to forgive me someday,” I

CHAPTER 201Serene “Are you OK?" Kyrell asked."Yes, I am fine here," I responded, handing him the paperwork and ordering the guards to lead him out.I headed back upstairs, feeling exhausted and drowsy. Pregnancy troubles are becoming increasingly apparent. I went to check on Mia, suspecting she was in her room, but she was not there. When I questioned the maids about her, they said she had gone to get something for her parents, which was unusual because she would typically let me know. "Ms. Brights, were you not meant to be opening the gift?" Rina inquired, and I knew exactly what she was after.“I'll do it later. Do you need anything?" I asked her.“No, I just thought you wouldn't want it anymore, I mean —" "Guess you are mistaken," I interrupted her and walked away, ignoring her chuckle.I stepped into my room and had a shower before dressing comfortably and sitting on my balcony. Aunt Mina strolled in with a tray in her hands as I was savoring the sights. These individuals

CHAPTER 200Serene After a few hours, I awoke, feeling better, and discovered Neina sleeping next to me. I attempted to get out of bed without touching her, but she caught me nonetheless."Hey," I said, attempting to make everything appear normal."Hello, how are you feeling, and do you need anything?" she asked, sitting up straight."No, I am OK," I responded, but she gave me a strange look."You felt ill in the office; did Kyrell do anything?" she inquired."No, he didn't; I was just browsing through the files when I had that sense; perhaps I was just weary," I said."Exactly why you should put all of this on hold to focus on keeping those kids healthy, Serene please.""I am well, Neina, but I can not stop worrying about what will happen if we do not stop Diablo right now it could be late.""Look, you need to take your prescription now; we will speak about everything tomorrow," she added, handing me my pills." Thanks, love you.”"No you don't,” she joked.I went to check how Migue
