MR. BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET; I WANT YOU BACK Chapter 17. A function.
Emily’s POV.The night passed slowly, each minute dragging on like an eternity. Finally, Dawn crept in through the curtains, casting a pale light across the room. No sooner had my alarm chimed than I bolted out from the covers. I robbed my eyes and yawned, feeling rejuvenated for a new day’s activities. The sound of the alarm pierced the silence, prompting me to smack it till it turned off.My gaze traveled to the wall clock. “Nine thirty,” I mumbled under my breath, feeling the need to get more sleep since it was Saturday.. As I laid down on the bed, I placed my head on the soft pillow, I closed my eyes with a grin plastered on my face. A peaceful feeling greeted me with an eerie silence, a sharp contrast to the usual chaos of my evenings.Just when I remembered something, my eyes flicked open, and I sat on the bed with wide eyes.“Damn!” I cussed, raking my fingers through my hair.“How did I forget that there is a special event at Marina Vila today? Gosh! I even received an invi

Logan’s Point Of View I couldn’t take my gaze away from Emily. Emily captured my attention with her sexy cream sheath gown, which showcased her well-endowed curves. Her flawless white skin, heart-shaped ruby lips and her glossy brunette hair, which cascaded down to her shoulder, all called out to me. It’s as though I was trapped in her captivating allure, without a way out. I swallowed my saliva multiple times, trying hard to control myself, but I couldn’t stop drooling. I desired so much to touch her, feel her and even smell her …“Is it true that Jonathan is friends with your brother, Logan?” Martin asked as soon as he alighted from his car.With my chest constricting, I watched Emily stroll into the VIP lounge with Collin.My face flashed with rage, and I subconsciously clenched my fists as well.“Bro.. you look lost and angry… Are you alright?” Martin asked, his gray eyes searching my face.He was in a gray suit with a pink tie, looking all dashing like a humble gentleman.

Emily's POVMy face glowed as different beams of light flashed in my direction. I stood under the spotlight with all eyes on me. My rapid heartbeat slowed, and I took a deep breath before gripping the microphone.A smile formed on my lips as I exuded camaraderie, feeling honored to be a special guest at today's gathering. Waving my hand slightly in the air, I glanced sideways with my gaze sweeping at the multiple faces of people seated in the spacious hall. “First of all, I'm honored to be invited to this wonderful event.” I began, my voice cutting through the heavy silence that had now enveloped the entire hall.People listened keenly to what I had to say.. I felt a little nervous but when I caught a glimpse of Collin who was in the second row, a wave of confidence surged within me. The splash of happiness in his eyes brightened my mood, giving me the courage I desperately needed.Collin has been my unwavering support over the years and I'm glad I met him.“Thank you Jonathan Forbe

Emily's POVThe air felt thick and stifling, and my heart hammered furiously as I glared at him. If looks could kill, he would have been six feet tall by now. But you know what hurts the most — It’s the fact Logan is less concerned whenever I’m upset. My emotions are oblivious to him and he cares less to know when I’m upset or angry.He dragged me closer to him, drawing attention from every other person. Every stare, every single eye, murmurs and chuckles made frustration bubble inside me, but I tried to mask those anger with a forced, phony smile on my face.Taking my gaze to Logan, my face heated up, and I scowled at him with clenched fists.“What the hell do you want from me? I’ve told you never to touch me! The last time I warned you, I’ve promised myself to raise my hand on your cheek and trust me, I can f**g do just that!”“Oh, really?” Logan questioned, taking a step closer to me. Yanking my hands off his grip, I glared at him with a smug smile tugged at my lips.Through gritt

Emily's POV I stood still, watching the altercation that was about to unfold between Collin and Logan. The room grew silent, the tension palpable with my heartbeat echoing in my ears. My heart skipped a beat as Collin appeared in front of Logan, his face etched with disgust and rage. Knowing they were nothing but rivals, their presence garnered a lot of attention and I could hear whispers from other celebrities who were in the room with us. "I heard Emerald was previously married to logan. She has moved on since their divorce, but Logan appears to have not. I believe he still has his eyes on her." Taylor, a famous upcoming singer in a black sheath gown and cashmere said, her face filled with a heavy makeup. I felt my heart crumble like a wrinkled paper, each breath felt like a dagger poking my chest as I listened to their gossip. “It’s Logan's loss by the way. Emerald is now involved in a relationship with Collins. I'm sure she can never go back to Logan..” Cecile, a famous

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

He knew Lorenzo wasn't the one to make empty threats. The air was thick with tension, their eyes boring into each other's.“Come on, Lorenzo. You're taking things too far,” Collin spoke in calm voice. “You know you don't have to do this…” He added, gnashing his teeth.Lorenzo cocked the gun, still aiming it at Collin, a fierce expression on his face.“You have to choose one, Collin. Emerald or the Mafia..” He threatened, his voice cutting through the thick silence between them.Lorenzo's expression shifted into a serious demeanor, his eyes cold and hard with his muscles tensed.Collin was unable to respond. His lips quivered with his thick breath billowing in the air.“It's high time you chose one, Collin. She's clearly done with you but you're too blind to see it.

Even when I got home, Colin had called Incessantly, desperate to receive forgiveness from me. I sighed as I sat upright, my fingers finding their way to my temple. I shut my eyes and gave my temple a light massage, hoping to clear my mind from everything. Today is a new day and I don't want the weight of yesterday to keep clinging around me.Stepping off the bed, I strolled to the bathroom to have my bath. When I was done, I selected a few clothes to wear and I ended up wearing a classy blazer suit with pants. I styled my hair in a ponytail and applied minimal make-up to my face. A sly smile curled at my lips as I applied a shade of lipstick on my lips.Today is a shareholder's meeting at Logan's company and I couldn't be more excited…I have a plan to achieve.

I'm sure he's still shocked that I got to find out.“Collin. I don't wish to speak to you right now.. ““Emerald please, I need to hear me out. There's nothing going on between me and Cecile. I promise…” “How can I trust you? You've already broken my trust, Collin.

I felt so light; it felt like a weight was seized off my shoulders..She thought she would make me sad with those revelations, but little did she know that I’m already prepared for what was to come. I already knew what she was going to say, and it wasn’t a surprise to me. She expected the news to devastate me.“You’re so strong, Emerald. I’m glad you didn’t tear up in her presence or gave her the satisfaction of seeing you cry,” Kate spoke, her voice filled with warmth.We’re currently on our way back home. Kate was the one driving.

I mean, I can keep counting every blessing you have without stopping, Emerald.” Cecile began, a dark Chuckle erupting from her throat.I stared at her with clenched fist, knowing full well what she was up to.. She's aware of my dwindling relationship with Colin and is obviously here to make fun of me. I tried to keep myself calm, not wanting to exchange words with her because I know she's not worthy of it..“You have everything, Emerald but there is one thing you're never going to have or experience…” She said, stepping closer towards me with her smile deepening “I don't have your time, Cecile.
