MR. BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET; I WANT YOU BACK Chapter 22. A text from Anonymous.
Emily’s POV.The news about me and Collin emerging as the winner of the celebrity face event spread like wildfire. It was all over the news and everyone was talking about it. I received a lot of congratulatory messages from friends, fans, well-wishers and even strangers. But one very text left me brooding and worried. It was a text I received from someone anonymous. It says, “I will make sure I come between you and Collin. Don’t stay too happy because he’s not yours alone.”Since I got the message, it still haunted me. Not being able to trace who it was made me even more worried than ever.As days trickled by, I tried to push the unease aside, but it clung to me like shadows I couldn’t shake off. “Who could it be? Who could have sent such a message? Could it be Vivian? Or Cecile?” I asked, a faint sheen of sweat forming on my forehead as I sat up on my bed that early morning.The annoying sound of the alarm pierced the silence, snatching me from my thought zone. Striking it with my

Emily’s POV“You can always tell me what it is that is bothering you.” She began, her voice low and trembling as though the weight of the words I’m about to speak could shatter the fragile calm of the room. Her eyes roamed my features as she eagerly awaited what I had to say. The room grew silent for a few minutes. The only sound was the ticking of the clock on the wall.Scrambling for my phone, I turned it on and scrolled through the past messages I received. She stared at me all through, and I’m certain that a lot of questions must be swirling in her mind.My heart feels like it’s being squeezed and I tried to push down the nervousness that kept gnawing at my chest.“Here it is…” I said, showing her the phone. She took it from my hands, her gaze fixed on the screen as she read the messages.Her eyes sprang wide as she raised her head to face me.“What the f**k! Who is that nuisance?” She asked with raised brows.I shrugged and replied, “I have no clue, Kate. The message alone is dis

Emily's POVNo longer had Kate finished with my makeup than Collin arrived. He came in his white Camry car, looking all dashing in his sophisticated, tailored suit and shades.He had a perm and neatly trimmed his hair. And the smile he had on his face made him even more handsome. I wore a beautiful silky gown with embroideries on the bust area, and my hair hung freely by the right side of my neck with a fringe just above my eyes.Kate’s slight smokey eye makeup made my dark eyes pop, and she attached beautiful dangling earrings to my earlobes.“Have fun, Emerald. Remember what I told you,” Kate whispered in my ears and I nodded curtly, keeping my smile from faltering.Clutching my purse tightly, I breathed deeply, but before I could take a step towards Collin, Carl showed up, his gaze flicking at everyone’s faces.“Mom! Are you going now?” He asked curiously, his eyes radiating with concern.I knelt down to his level and stroked his hair lovingly, my lips curved upward.“Yes, son. I’l

Emily's POV “Why, Emerald? Is there anything bothering you?” Collin asked, his eyes flashing with curiosity. I sighed faintly, sat upright and placed my hands on his, hoping my response would satisfy his curiosity and not make him think I'm no longer interested in him.“I don't want to get married now because I'm not fully prepared. I'm happy to have found this loving and amazing lover, but I just need more time before finally settling down with you.” .I explained, staring at his curious face which was as calm as the surface of a lake.He stroked my hair, his eyes hovering over my features with great concern.I waited, held my breath as I waited for his response.To my surprise, he leaned towards me and planted a kiss on my forehead.“I totally understand.. I will consider your opinion. I won't influence your decision and I won't hurry you into getting married to me.” Collins eventually spoke, his voice full of conviction.“Thank you,” I responded, a profound sense of relief washi

Logan’s POVThoughts of Emily’s engagement with Collin have filled my mind, trapping me in an endless loop of curiosity. I couldn’t sleep all night because I knew she must be having the time of her life with Collin at the moment. Winning the highest vote from people at the celebrity face event at Jonathan’s resort has earned them tickets for a free flight to any country of their choice. It’s more like a special trip and a vacation to them, yet I imagine them taking it as though it’s their honeymoon.I couldn’t help but think about the quality moments they’ll spend together.. Will they stroll at certain parks? hike on mountains? Dine at classy restaurants? Have a slow romantic on a dancefloor? Or....I tried to shake those thoughts off my head. I just can’t bring myself to imagine Emily making out with Collin.Screw my life! I’m so bloody jealous right now…The night passed slowly, each minute dragging like an eternity.

Logan's POV“Are you still in love with Emily?” Lucas's question resounded in my ears and I froze as though he was staring keenly at me in person. I could imagine him standing at my front and staring at me curiously with those gray eyes and thick eyebrows of his.I sighed deeply, unable to say a word. I can't deny that I'm in love with Emily. If I lie to him about it, he definitely won't buy it. With those multiple questions I asked earlier, he must have suspected that I'm curious to know about her because I love her“I haven't gotten a response, Logan. Are you still in love with Emily?” He asked and just before I could respond, Vivian stormed in, dressed in a beautiful silky burgundy dress and Kitten heels. Her hair cascaded at her waist and a breeze came in through the open window and wafted her sensuous perfume into my eager nostrils.I couldn't respond to Lucas because she was around. The reality is, I am still in love with Emily, and I am willing to tell him.A tiny smile pulled

Emily's POVThe night passed slowly, each minute dragging on like an eternity. Drawn crept in through the curtains, casting a pale light across the beautiful, lavish room. I sat on the bed, squinting as my eyes adjusted to the bright light. My gaze settled on the intricate vaulted ceiling and the dangling glistening Chandelier with cool shades that cast a warm glow in the room. I shifted my gaze to the large window which had a delicate pattern of frost on it.A hint of admiration flashed in my eyes as I took in the appearance of the exquisite hotel I booked with Collin. The architecture of the building was very intricate so it shouldn't be a surprise that it has rooms with heavenly and exquisite features. Houses in Rome are always beautiful, and it's no surprise that it's one country I love to spend my vacation.The king-sized bed was soft, comfy, and posh. The furnitures are classy, the immaculate walls and the polish tiles did justice to the mesmerizing beauty of the entire room.Th

Emily's POVKate had suggested that I kept a close watch on Lorenzo throughout my stay in Italy. I confessed to her about how curious I was to know him and she had supported my plans on seeing him at Collin's next trip. She's told me to keep an eye on him and I'm definitely going to do that.So that makes it an addition to my tasks.First, I have to bring up a conversation about his female friend so I can know each of their qualities. I'd even love to see them in person and probably from there, I can have an idea or a hint of who the threat is.I badly want to know who sent that text.. and maybe I have to cross some boundaries in order to find out who it is.I'm only doing this to save my marriage with Collin..Heaving a deep sigh, I pressed my lips together, making my lip gloss even on my lips.Anxiety crawled up my sleeves, but I tried to mask my worry with a smile on my face.“Kate…” I called after clutching my phone to my ear.“Yes,” she responded, her voice filled with concern.W

Collin's face was a mask of remorse. I didn't expect things to go this way but I just can't take it anymore. My eyes flashed with anger and hurt, an aching finality that makes him falter."How can I trust you, Collin?" I asked, shaking my head with my voice laced with venom. "You've been lying to me, hiding the truth about your job and the dangers that come with it. What else have you kept from me? Tell me.. What else have you hidden from me?”Collin took a step forward, extending his hand in a placating gesture but I retraced my steps from him, my eyes filled with curiosity and doubts. "Emily,” He called, his voice nearly a whisper.“Please listen—" He added."No, you listen!" I interrupted, my voice going an octave higher.Swallowing the lump in my throat, I continued, "I should have known it would happen .”I stared into the distance.

Emily's POV “What did you just say?” Collin asked, wiping his face with the handkerchief in his hand. He takes his fingers through his hair, his face etched with worry. He has no clue that I'm behind him because he was so engrossed in the call he was receiving from the caller and I wasn't going to interrupt him, not even for a second.As Collin answered his phone, his hands trembled and his voice shook, giving off an air of fear and concern. "I'm warning you. Do not get my fiancé involved in this. I won't take it lightly with you if anything happens to her. And if I find out you're the cause of her accident then I'm sorry but you'll be gone anytime soon," Collin growled, anger flaring in his voice. I stifled a gasp, my breath caught in his hanging words which sank heavily on my shoulders.The voice on the phone threatened and it tinged with anger, getting Collin more infuriated.My heart crumbles like a wrinkled paper, each breath feels like a dagger poking my chest.

Emily's POV My breath hitched as the call bursted into a menacing laughter, his voice like an irritation to my ear. My grip on the sheet tightens, a frown on my face as I heard him say, “Collins and I are great rivals so it's best you stay away from him because I'd definitely use you to threaten him whenever I wish.”His words resounded in my ears, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. “Who are you? Why can't you reveal your name?” I asked, fear laced in my voice.My breath came out in rapid bursts, an unsettling feeling lingered in the air when I felt a dead silence at his end.“He- hello…” I stuttered, my face etched with worry. I got down from the bed and stared at my screen, trying to see if I could see the number but it was nothing but words written in the form of “private number,”. On it..“Who are you and what do you mean by the threats you just gave just now?” I asked curiously, slipping my fingers into my brunette hair.I didn't hear a response. My suspicion amplified with
MR. BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET; I WANT YOU BACK Chapter 113. A mysterious caller.
Emily’s POV My eyes flicked open, and the first thing I saw was the white ceiling. I felt a slight pain in my head, although it’s nothing compared to how it was a while ago. The beeping sound of the machine cut through the thick silence, accompanied by the heavy scent of antiseptic lingering in the air.I sat on the bed, groggily taking in my surroundings. I inspected myself in the mirror, bringing my hand to my cheeks. There was a white bandage on my head and the sterile white walls stared back at me.Then I heard footsteps and the feminine voice of the figure approaching. “Miss. Emerald, can you hear me?”“Yes. Yes, I can,” I replied, wincing in pain. She flashed me a warm, inviting smile, her eyes holding me in their grasp.“Do you remember anything?” She asked, stepping towards me, her sharp eyes hovering over my features.I tried to remember but everything was all hazy.. The last thing I remembered was getting into an argument with Collin and stepping out of his home.The nurse

Emily's POV.My lips twitched, my face twisted with questions as I stared at Collin. He gazed at me quizzically, his eyes glinting with curiosity at what I had said. I flipped my hair to the side of my neck, still trying to believe that maybe, just maybe everything Lorenzo said about him wasn't true. “Did Lorenzo say that to you, Emerald?” Collin asked, his lips quivering.I nodded, confirming his thoughts with a stern look on my face.He swallowed the lump in his throat, a heavy sigh escaping his lips as he shoved his fingers into his hair.“You have to tell me what Lorenzo meant by my relationship with you complicating things? You have to tell me why I'm not safe being with you? I'm sure you've been hiding things from me, Collin.” I snapped, my eyes welled with unshed tears.Collin shook his head and approached me, his face masked with guilt.He wanted to place his hands on my shoulder but I retraced my steps, preventing that from happening “Lorenzo said I'm to stay away from yo

Emily's POV.“What are you, Lorenzo?” I asked, my heart racing as I stared at those mysterious eyes of his. His lips pulled in a smirk, dimples on either side of his cheeks. “You'll get to know me soon, Emily..” He spoke calmly, his words weighing heavily on my shoulders. What made me even more shocked was that he didn't address me as Emerald but rather, as Emily.How on earth did he know that I was Emily? “Everything you said about Collin…” I said, and swallowed the lump in my throat with my curios eyes hovering over his features.“What do you mean by him being a threat to me?” I asked, my voice trembling even as I tried to remain calm I just wanted to know the truth. I just want to know what he's been hiding from me.. perhaps there was something about Collin that I have no clue about .“Why do you say my engagement with him might complicate matters? What exactly do you mean?” I asked, gripping my bag tightly.Lorenzo smiled and dipped his hand in his pocket, his strong cologne w
MR. BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET; I WANT YOU BACK Chapter 110. What are you, Lorenzo?
Emily’s POV ~>I kept a forced smile on my face as I made my way into the dimly lit bar, which was filled with a lot of people. Murmurs and laughter echoed in the background, coupled with the soft music emanating from speakers. I saw a couple at a far end, chatting and whispering as they swilled several shots of their drinks.I tried to blend in as I ordered a drink. “What do you need, ma’am?” The server asked as he approached her with a smile on his face. I inspected him. He was in a white button-down shirt with the establishment logo embroidered on the sleeve. He paired it with trusty black pants and polished shoes.“Nothing much, just a cappuccino.” I replied, while the man’s gaze was fixed on the ring on my finger. He raised his head to stare at me, a warm, inviting smile on his face.“Coming right up,” He answered, and left.He returned after some minutes, dropping the cappuccino carefully on my table with ease. I smiled as I took the cup off the saucer, my grip on the handle wi

Emily’s POV~ I took in a deep breath, my eyes fixed on the phone, which was still buzzing in my grip. Gently, I swiped the Accept button and brought the phone to my ear. With a smile tugged at my lips, I replied in a calm voice, “Hello, Collin.” “Hi sweetheart, how is your day going, sweetheart?” Collin asked, his voice filled with affection. “Fine. Everything is fine,” I replied, itching my nape as I hinted at thoughts on why he had called. Not that I always expect reasons for his calls, but I had this feeling that he called me to discuss something important with me. I mean,there are times he’d call just to check up on me or ask about my day with nothing else to say, but I had this lingering feeling that there was something important he wanted to discuss with me. “You’re still at work, right?” He asked curiously. My brows shot up as I shifted my gaze to Kate. I nibbled my lower lips, wondering why he’d asked. Or perhaps he was already at my workplace and had been sear

Emily's POV The knock on the door continued, my heart racing with anticipation as I neared it. Kate swallowed hard and wanted to skirt past me but I held her hand, and stopped her. “Who do you think it might be?” I asked Kate who shrugged, having no clue who it might be. She skirted past me, wanting to approach the door but I stopped her by holding her wrist. “Let me see who it is. Just stay here…” I whispered, while she nodded in acceptance. I tore my gaze from her and approached the door. Taking a deep breath, and called out in a calm voice, “Who is it?” “It's me.. Jeremy,” The voice came through, and I exchanged a glance with Kate whose eyes went wide a little. Her brows creased as her face turned a deep shade of red. “Don't let him in..” She said while I nodded. “I’m sorry Jeremy. Kate doesn't want to speak to you..” “Oh I think she does..” He scoffed. “We have something important to discuss..” “Well I don't want to argue with a cheat like you. Get the fuck o
