Lora rushed to work, wanting to get ready for an important meeting with a client.

However, when she stepped into the office building, she felt like her employees were looking at her funny.

“Miss Davis,” Hannah rushed towards Lora with her tablet. “Have you checked the tabloids today? There’s news about you and Mr Kingsley.”

Lora frowned and mused. ‘Why would there be news about me and Ryan?’

She took the tablet from her assistant and went through the article.

Sure enough, everyone was talking about Lora and Ryan. A picture of when Lora and Ryan were dancing was trending on the internet. Ryan held her close and she looked up into his eyes. From the angle that the photo was taken, it looked like she was looking at him lovingly.

The two looked like a couple in that intimate position. Ryan's arms were wrapped around Lora's waist, his eyes never leaving her frame. It was like he was looking at the most beautiful thing in the world.

Lora furrowed her eyebrows as she scrolled down to re

What.. She still had feeling for that scumbag who never chose her first in the past and even left her to her death? Disappointing.. when I thought she would be different from all other pathetic female leads in other stories in this book.

    “Sir, Miss Davis’ tech team are trying to take down the news,” Lawrence reported to Ryan. Ryan looked up from where he sat at his desk in his office. He asked, “How much did the news spread? Is it trending?” “The news about your possible affair with Miss Davis has gone viral. I think almost everyone has seen the news, sir,” Lawrence replied. Ryan smirked. That’s just what he wanted. He was the driving force behind the trending news this time, wanting people to talk about him and Lora. For some reason, he liked it when people said he and Lora were a good match. He wanted the news to keep spreading until all traces of Jason were removed. However, since Lora wanted to take down the news, Ryan was worried she would find out about his involvement and get angry. Looking at Lawrence, he instructed, “Take down the news. My plan has already worked.” Ryan didn’t like how Lora’s name was being constantly associated with Jason on the internet. However, now that no one was talking about them

    Charles slapped the entertainment magazine he was reading on the table in frustration. He glanced at the family's butler, Arnold Miller, and said, "So Ryan's engagement ceremony has been set to happen in two weeks. What is wrong with this boy?"Arnold chuckled, his wrinkles moving at the action. He was standing beside Charles in his study, ready to serve him at any moment. Looking at Charles, he replied, "What do you mean by boy, Sir? Ryan is a fully grown thirty-three-year-old man.""Exactly! He's thirty-three! But he acts like he just hit puberty," Charles scoffed, shaking his head. "I don't understand... he seemed more interested in the young lady of the Davis family, Lora Davis. I saw how he couldn't stop looking at her at the party... so what is this now? Why is he going through with the engagement to Ivy? I'm pretty sure he doesn't love her.""The young man must have his own reasons. Perhaps you should let him do what he wants? The last time you interfered and forced him to marry

    Charles Kingsley’s eyes rounded in shock. When he saw the convoy of cars in front of the office building, he thought Lora had returned and wanted to go and meet her. However, he ended up bumping into two adorable, squishy kids that made his old heart melt instantly. 'Am I dreaming?' He asked in his mind, his heart pounding hard in his chest. He had come to see Lora but he didn’t expect to see two children who looked like Ryan and Lora. What was going on?Could these kids be…?Charles' heart pounded so hard he could hear it in his ears. He took in a shuddering breath, his hands trembling as he tried to fathom what he could see with his own eyes. Just as Charles kept looking at the twins, the twins were staring at him curiously too. Ella whispered in her brother's ears, “Ethan, is this man our grandpa? He looks like Daddy and you.” Ethan’s eyebrows were furrowed in deep thought as he studied Charles’ face. Since they shared the same face, could he really be their Grandpa? Did it

    “Ryan, thank you for doing this with me,” Ivy remarked as Ryan pushed her wheelchair into a gemstone boutique. “I thought you were being forced to marry me but seeing you accompany me here gives me hope.” “Can you do your business fast, I have things to do,” Ryan replied, his jaw tight. He wanted to be anywhere but there… shopping for rare stones that would be used for their engagement jewelry with Ivy made him feel empty. Why was he even doing this? Was it worth it?Was this really the solution? Did he want to marry Ivy and live in a loveless marriage again?Would he be able to forget about Ivy’s real face? To be honest, when she stole Lora’s work and accused Lora of plagiarism, Ivy lost her image in Ryan’s eyes. She might have gotten hurt while saving him, but was marrying her really the best way to repay her for her legs? “Ryan, what do you think of this rare pink stone? I think it would look good on my engagement ring,” Ivy’s voice brought Ryan back to the present. He lazily

    Ryan glanced at Lora, a million emotions swirling in his eyes. He swallowed the lump in his throat and said in a low voice, "I don't believe you." Lora scoffed and replied, "You don't need to. Jason is the man I love and chose to marry." Ryan fell silent, the lump in his throat growing bigger. He looked at Lora and took a step forward, getting closer to her. He could feel his heart racing in his chest, Lora's scent seeping into his nostrils the closer he got. "I don't believe it because I can't see it in your eyes, Lora. You see, you don't look like someone who's in love right now," Ryan said in a low velvety voice. Lora sneered and looked up at Ryan. She questioned, "Who are you to say that? What right do you have to claim I don't love the man I'm dating?" "I may not have the right but I can prove it," Ryan said and before Lora could tell what was happening, he held the back of her neck before capturing her lips in a passionate kiss. Lora froze, her heart pounding like a gallop

    There was an air of awkwardness between Lora and Jason on their way back.Lora had noticed her lipstick was smudged when she was about to get into the car. She had seen her reflection in the window and her heart raced erratically.A flare of guilt rushed through her. What would Jason think of her now?Clearing her throat, she glanced at Jason who was focusing on the road and asked, “Why are you not saying anything?”Jason arched an eyebrow at Lora and questioned, “About what?”The words got stuck in Lora’s throat. How was she supposed to ask her boyfriend why he wasn’t confronting her when he had noticed that another man had kissed her?She furrowed her eyebrows and replied, “Actually, I didn’t know Ryan would follow me to the restroom. I-““You don’t need to explain anything to me, Lora,” Jason said, interrupting Lora’s words. “I trust you. If something happened, then it could only be Ryan Kingsley’s fault.”Lora bit her lower lip as guilt completely filled her heart. What did she do

    "Sir, there's been a cyberattack on your personal assets!" Lawrence Scott, Ryan's assistant, reported. Ryan furrowed his eyebrows. He had a question mark on his face as he said, "That's not possible. My assets are well protected." "Clearly they are not, Sir. This hacker was able to log into the system and made you lose a hundred million dollars. They've also hacked into your crypto portfolio and distributed one hundred thousand Bitcoin tokens to other traders," Lawrence explained. Ryan furrowed his eyebrows. He opened his portfolio and sure enough, his bitcoin had been tampered with. As he was assessing the impact of the attack, his screen suddenly blinked and a message popped up. [This is for hurting your wife.]'My wife? Larisa?' Ryan's heart skipped a beat when he read the message. Did someone know Larisa and how she died six years ago? Was this their way of making him pay for not saving her?Ryan's heart clenched with guilt and his stomach churned as the image of the warehouse

  • Her Return, His Regret   Chapter 61~ What would he do?

    "Adan, any updates? Grandpa said something that got me thinking last night... I keep thinking Lora might be Larisa," Ryan said on the phone. "I doubt two different people can have the same face unless they are identical twins." It was the next day and Ryan had called his friend to find out about the progress of the investigation. He didn't know why, but something told him they were missing something. Lora's hatred for him... the way she avoided him... it didn't seem like she had just known him recently. He always suspected her identity but he thought it wasn't possible for her to be Larisa since he had seen the explosion himself. However, his grandfather's words made him realise something. There was no way they could verify that the ashes belonged to Larisa. They couldn't even tell if the ashes were mixed with a human being's or if they were just from the burnt warehouse. Larisa could have managed to escape before he could save her. Perhaps he couldn't find her because she hid hers

    Lora was dressed in a black and white pencil dress that day, so it was easy for Ryan to have access to her core. When he slid his hand under her dress and up her thigh, Lora trembled as tingles coursed through her. She bit her lower lip and involuntarily clamped her legs shut, trapping Ryan’s naughty hand between her thighs. “Don’t hide from me,” Ryan said in a low, husky voice before slipping his hand out and carrying Lora bridal style. He placed her on a reclining leather couch and got down on his knees, settling between her legs. Lora blushed when Ryan slid his hands under her dress and began to take off her panties. As he did this, Ryan glanced up at Lora, smirking when he saw her blushing. “C-Can we turn off the lights?” Lora requested, her heart pounding hard in her chest. Touching her core was one thing but having Ryan’s face on it was another. She was so nervous. Ryan let out a low chuckle just as he slid down Lora’s panties completely. “I want to see all of you, bab

    “A movie date?” Lora asked when she looked at the theater in front of them. “Yes… it’s during the week and it’s not crowded, so we can watch a movie. I would have wanted to book the whole place but I thought you would love to have a full experience,” Ryan replied, smiling. Lora glanced at him and said, “Since when are you into movies? You used to say they bore you.”Ryan chuckled awkwardly and replied, “I’m still not into movies but for you, I can watch a thousand movies if it means it would make you happy.” Lora smiled faintly. She recalled how she used to arrange for movie date nights, however, Ryan wasn’t into that in the past. In fact, they never went on dates or hang out together. However, it was different this time. Ryan was making the effort and she appreciated it. “So, what are we watching?” Lora asked as they walked towards the counter to stand in line just like everyone else. Ryan glanced at the screen and said, “Well, I don’t know what you like. We can watch a romantic

    “What? Ryan told you to be ready to get eaten?” Bianca exclaimed and Lora covered her mouth with her palm, looking around to make sure no one had heard her. “Sshh, you don’t have to announce it to the whole world,” Lora replied, her cheeks flushing pink. It was lunchtime and Lora met her best friend, Bianca Jones, for lunch and told her about Ryan’s words. Bianca whistled and replied, “You’re so lucky, my friend.”“Why? Because I’m going on a date?” Lora asked, her eyebrows creasing. “No, silly,” Bianca rolled her eyes. “Do you know what he means by, be ready to get eaten?"When Lora shook her head, Bianca added, "It means he’s going to eat you down there.” Lora gasped, her eyes widening. An image flashed through her mind and her face flushed again. Looking at her friend, she asked, “What? Why would he do that?” “It’s part of lovemaking, my friend,” Bianca said. She leaned over and whispered, “We need to visit a spa before lunch hour ends to... you know… make sure it’s smooth and

    "Diane Kingsley? Is she Ryan Kingsley’s sister? Did she just call Miss Davis her sister-in-law?" Someone whispered. "I did hear of the scandal that Ryan was once married to Miss Davis. Have they made up?" "Does that mean the Kingsley group will be in alliance with the Davis & Co. Company? This is good for us!""Wait!" Craig yelled. "This isn't the matter we are here to discuss. Miss Davis ruined the company’s reputation and she has to go to prevent the VIP client from suing us.""Why would I sue my sister-in-law's company? Are you crazy, old man?" Diane said. She then turned to look at Lora before whispering, "Ryan told me you made up. Congrats! I'm so happy to see you two together again." Lora smiled and blushed. "I see he couldn't wait to tell the world, huh?" "He's so happy, you have no idea," Diane whispered before turning her gaze to the rest of the room. "I came here today, not to watch my sister-in-law get bullied, but to deal with the bastard who stole my customised design

    “I second that. Lewis Hendrix would lead the company better.”“There’s been one issue after another ever since Miss Davis took over the position. I think it’s sufficient to say that she’s failed to run the company.” “That’s right. We don’t have funds to use on lawsuits. Who’s going to fix this mess? Our reputation will go down the drain.” The shareholders kept airing their views after Craig’s statement. Seated on one of the chairs around the long table, Lewis had a victorious smirk on his face as he watched the scene unfold. It was exactly as he had planned. This time, not even Jack Davis would be able to stop his daughter from being fired. The company’s reputation was going to be destroyed once everything blew up and Lora would have no way out of this. Ruining the company's image was enough for the board members to fire Lora Davis without waiting for the chairman's decision. Secretly taking out his phone, Lewis sent out a message. When he received a response, he smirked before c

    “A trial period?” Freya Davis asked with a raised eyebrow. Ryan nodded and replied, “Yes, Ma’am. I know nothing I say right now will make you change your mind about me. So, I’ll show you that I’ll make your daughter the happiest woman in the world.”“And you only need thirty days to do that?” Freya questioned. “What if you’re just pretending in that thirty days?” “I can never pretend with Lora… I love her. I may have realised too late that she was very important to me, but I’ll make it up to her for the rest of her life,” Ryan proclaimed. Freya sighed, her brows creasing. She looked at Ryan and studied him intently before her gaze softened ever so slightly.“I see,” she remarked. “Since you’re offering thirty days to prove that you’re worthy of my daughter, I’ll give you a chance.”Ryan’s eyes lit up but before he could respond, Freya added, “But… If you fail to make Lora happy or if you hurt her again, I want you to leave her alone forever and never bother her again.”Ryan gulped,

    “I can’t wait to have you and our children home, baby. I hate having to drop you off,” Ryan said after they got out of the car when they arrived at the Davis mansion. He sighed and added, "Being a gentleman is hard." Ryan walked Lora to the patio of the mansion and coiled his arm around her waist, pulling her close.“I wish you stayed with me tonight,” he remarked in his sexy husky voice.Lora smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck, looking up at him.“I know but... I have to tell Mom and Dad about our reconciliation first. Dad may have said that he won’t interfere but Mom won’t be so easy to convince,” she replied.Ryan sighed again before saying, “I know. I noticed her reluctance to accept me last time. But I’ll do my best to win her over... if it means I have to eat a hundred chillies-““Don’t even think about it, Mr Kingsley!” Lora scolded. “Try another way... not one that will put you in harm’s way.”“Are you worried about me?” Ryan asked, arching an eyebrow. “Of course I

    Although Lora and Ryan had been married and living together for three years in the past, their love-making wasn’t that great due to the lack of love and affection in their relationship. So, Lora didn’t really have the chance to explore her sexuality. She was reserved and inexperienced. However, as Ryan used his fingers to pleasure her down there, she felt like her veins were about to explode from the intense electric currents sizzling through her. The feeling was foreign, yet it felt so good. All she could do was scream in ecstasy. Lost in the throes of pleasure, she forgot about her shyness and rode Ryan’s fingers like a pro… taking what she wanted like the Queen she was. It was like her body had a mind of its own, setting the pace for what felt good for her and Ryan read her so well, moving in sync with her body. Lora had no idea one could seek pleasure like this. Happy tingles coursed through her and she didn’t know where they began or where they ended. Every part of her felt

    “Why do you keep looking at me like that?” Lora shyly asked, her face flushing pink. Ryan smirked before saying, “I just can’t believe how beautiful you are.” They were seated on a two-seater couch after their heartwarming reconciliation. Lora rolled her eyes. She remarked, “You don’t have to sweet talk me anymore… I’ve already agreed to give you a chance.” Ryan frowned. He wrapped his arm around Lora’s waist before pulling her close so that her back was resting on his chest. “Hey… your wounds-”“Sshh, the wounds are healing, I’m fine,” Ryan said. He wrapped his arms around Lora’s waist before placing his chin on her shoulder. “Just because I won the election, does it mean I have to stop campaigning?” “What?” Lora laughed. The sound of her laughter tickled Ryan’s heart. How long had he longed to hear that sound in his house?Lora pulled back to look at him over her shoulder and asked, “What kind of comparison is that?”“The most logical one,” Ryan replied, smirking. “I was campa
