My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 72
Olivia ~•~ I walked out of my house and headed to the cab I ordered. Maya was in the city and we planned to hang out at a cafe so we could catch up on each other lives. It had only been about two weeks since I moved back to New York, but it felt like I hadn’t seen Maya for an eternity. I was excited and couldn’t wait to see her. I slid into the back seat of the car and after a short drive, I was at the cafe. I let out a relieved sigh as I saw Maya sitting outside the cafe. After paying the driver, I rushed over to Maya. She stood up from her chair and opened her arms wide. I leaned into her body and engulfed her in a warm embrace. “I’m so happy to see you,” I said, a wide smile plastered on my face. “How are you doing?” Maya smiled. “I’m doing great.” She gestured to the empty chair beside her as she settled down. “You look good, you’ve added a good amount of weight.” “You look good too.” I returned the compliment and settled down on the empty chair beside Maya. “So what bring

Olivia ~•~I promised to take the kids to the park during the weekend and as soon as it was morning, they sang it like a song loud in my ear. “I remember, sweetheart. Just let me sleep a little longer.” I pleaded as they dragged my blanket out from my body. But they were relentless and I knew they wouldn’t give up until I got up. With a laugh, I surrendered, tossing off the blanket and swinging my legs over the side of the bed. “Alright, you all should keep yourself busy with the television while I get ready.” Their expressions turned victorious. “Yay!” They both yelled in unison before running out of my room. I let out a loud sigh and stretched my arms. Then I stood up from the bed and made my way to the bathroom. It was still very and they were really persistent, so I had to spend a long time in the bathroom. After I was done showering, I changed into a comfortable dress and went outside to meet the kids in the living room. “What do you want for breakfast?” I asked the kids wh

Olivia ~•~I blinked in confusion and tilted my head. “Huh?” “I’m sorry, it’s just the test resu………”I trailed off, lost in my thoughts as the doctor spoke. I knew he was saying something but I couldn’t hear what he was saying. My mind started racing. I had no idea when last I had my period. My hand hovered around my stomach and I examined it, trying to see if it was protruding. With everything that had been going on, I hadn’t kept track of my period in a while but I knew I had it some time ago. My hands were clammy with sweat as I realized where the conversation was heading. Everywhere became dizzy and the next thing I knew, everything went blank. The next time I opened my eyes, I was lying on the bed and Alexander was sitting next to me. “No, you shouldn’t be here.” I gestured for him to leave as I tried to sit upright. Alexander pushed me back gently. “I’ll go get the doctor.” He said in a soft and calm voice. “Stay on the bed.” I remained still while he left the office. I

Olivia ~•~“Are you good? What was this all about?” Alexander asked as he entered the hospital room. I was still lying on the bed, thinking about my life. “Nothing, I just wasn’t feeling well.” I felt a pang of guilt as I lied to him. I couldn’t bring myself to tell him the truth about my pregnancy. Alexander moved closer to me and placed his hands on my body. “Your temperature isn’t high. Are you ready to leave? Are the doctors done?” He asked. I nodded. “Yeah. I’m ready to leave.” The doctor gave me his card, so I could call him whenever I was ready to move forward with the next step. With Alexander’s help, I got out of bed and he led me out of the hospital. “I took your mother home because it was getting late.” He said as he opened the front door for me to enter. “Alright, thank you,” I replied, securing my seatbelt. “What of Riley and Rowan?” I asked as Alexander settled down beside me in the driver’s seat. “I dropped them with your mother.” Throughout the ride back home,

Olivia ~•~I tried hard not to let my emotions cloud my judgment. Throughout the time I sat in court, I kept on thinking about how unfair it was for the father of my unborn baby would be in prison during his birth. Part of me hated him for everything he’d done but another part of me couldn’t ignore the reality that my child would be without a father. I wasn’t even sure I was going to tell Ethan that the baby was his. I had been a great single mother a few years back and I didn’t have any problem being one again. I knew I was giving birth to a boy but I hadn’t told anybody about it. Not even my sister or Maya. I knew they weren’t going to judge me but I still felt ashamed whenever I thought about it. For the past week, I have been visiting the doctor’s regularly. I had come to accept my fate and I needed to take the necessary precautions, so I would give birth without complications. “Are you satisfied with his sentence?” Alexander asked and I jerked back to reality. I was leaning

Olivia ~•~As we stepped into the house, I announced to the kids. “Maya is coming over.” Riley’s eyes widened in surprise. “She’s in New York? She asked, her voice filled with excitement. I nodded. “Yeah.”I took their bags into their room and offered them some snacks. “Y’all should stay in your room and play, so the adults can talk.” Riley and Rowan initially wanted separate rooms but after they spent a night without each other, they decided that they didn’t want separate rooms anymore. I smiled as I checked my phone and saw Maya’s message. She was at the door and I couldn’t wait to get the weight off my shoulders. “Maya is at the door,” I called out to Riley and Rowan who trailed behind me as I headed to the front door. They were so excited to see her. As I opened the door, Maya stood there, and her eyes softened as she saw the twins. She pulled them into a tight hug and made small conversation with them before turning to me. “How are you doing, Olivia?” She asked, a wide sm

Olivia ~•~Maya spent a few more hours at my house and soon it was time to leave. I stood up from the couch and headed to the kid's room. I wanted to check up on them because they had been really quiet. I slowly opened the door, so I wouldn’t disturb them if they were asleep. But to my surprise, they were wide awake, engulfed in reading their story books. “Hi,” I whispered as I waved at them. They responded with a smile. Just as I was about to turn around, Rowan’s voice echoed through the quiet room. “Mama, can I ask you about something?” I nodded. “Sure, but that’ll be after I see Maya off. I’ll be back.” I said and turned around, closing the door behind me. “Thank you for coming.” I expressed my gratitude to Maya as I led her out of the house. It was already dark and I was grateful she spent a lot of hours with me. Maya smiled, gently nudging me on the shoulder. “Anytime, babes. We should do this some other time too.” She suggested and I nodded in agreement. Watching movies

Olivia ~•~My mind went blank as I stood at the doorstep, my hand hesitating over the doorbell. Then suddenly, I felt someone tap my shoulder. “Olivia!” I heard my sister's voice call out my name. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t even hear her walk up to the door. “Are you okay?” She narrowed her eyes on me. I fidgeted with my dress, smoothing out wrinkles that weren’t even there. “Yeah, I’m okay.” I finally rang the doorbell. “I didn’t know you were coming.” “I just wanted to stop by to see Mum,” Amanda responded. My mother answered the door and we all went inside the house. “Hey, mum. How are you doing?” I asked after she closed the door behind her. She didn’t respond, she just gestured for me to follow her to her room. Amanda and I exchanged suspicious glances before I trailed behind my mother who led me into her room. My mother made sure the door was locked, then she cleared her throat and began. “Olivia, take a seat.” She pointed to the chair opposite her bed. I

Chapter 269Riley Burke ~•~I wanted everything to be perfect! For the past two weeks, I’ve been looking forward to this day. Mason and I were finally going on our date. I had no idea why I was nervous. It wasn’t like it was the first time I was going out with him. Maybe I was just having PTSD from our last date. But I knew I had nothing to be worried about. My father had assured me that he was okay with me being with Mason. He wanted me to be happy, even if my happiness included being with someone who had hurt us in the past. It wasn’t Mason who hurt us but I just didn’t focus on that part. As long as he was ready to move past the whole situation, I didn’t care to correct him anymore. “The makeup artist is here!” Rowan yelled loud enough for me to hear after knocking on my room door. Yes, I had to ask for a professional makeup artist because I was hellbent on making everything perfect. “I’ll be downstairs soon,” I replied as I wore my hair bonnet to protect my hair while getti

Chapter 268Mason Craig ~•~Ever since Riley’s father picked her up from the restaurant and interrupted our date, I had this lingering feeling of sadness inside me. But I acted like everything was fine and normal. I didn’t want to put too much pressure on her. I felt hurt because every day I woke up, I was reminded that she wasn’t my girl and could easily give another boy a chance. I didn’t want that to happen but at the same time, I didn’t have any control over it. Every day felt like torture but I was glad that it had finally come to an end. Riley’s father had finally approved of our relationship. A wave of excitement surged through me but I tried my best to remain calm when she told me about it. I would finally be able to be with the girl of my dreams. I had a feeling that he changed his mind because my father agreed to help when Riley had gone missing. I also had my father to thank. He finally fixed the mess he had caused earlier. Everything was finally going smoothly. I h

Chapter 267Olivia ~•~“Are you sure you don’t mind seeing them together?” I asked Alexander for the umpteenth time when he said he wanted to tell Riley that she could be with Mason. I didn’t want a situation where he would second guess his choice and regret his decision. Or a situation where he wouldn’t be nice to the boy later in the future. It wouldn’t be fair on Riley. Alexander nodded his head as he parked the car in the driveway. “Yes, I’m sure.” He assured me. “I shouldn’t be the one to take away my daughter’s chance at teenage love.” He added, smiling at me. I shrugged. “Okay, if you say so,” I replied as I loosened my seatbelt. “I hope you don’t have any secret animosity towards him that will reveal itself later.” Alexander laughed. “Don’t you trust me?” He asked, raising a brow at me. “I’m not holding anything against the boy. Not even his parents.” “Fine.” We stepped out of the car and made our way into the house. On our way back home, we stopped at the mall to get

Chapter 266Riley Burke ~•~It was fun having my friends over for the weekend. And it was a total flop trying to pretend like I was surprised when they first arrived. They saw right through my pretense. Even if we hadn’t been friends for so long, they knew me well enough. I barely even thought about what I had gone through while they were around. Having them around was a good distraction. I was sad that they had to leave. But I couldn’t do anything about it as I walked them to the car. During their stay, I realized that it was actually my mother’s idea to invite them over. Now it made sense why she was so welcoming. My mother didn’t usually like it when I had my friends over. I mean, my friends from high school. Our family was always under scrutiny, so she didn’t trust anybody. It was nice to see her giving my new friends a chance. The weekend was over and it was a new school week. I hadn’t completely healed but even when I assured my parents that I would be okay, they claime

Chapter 265Riley Burke ~•~As soon as my dad handed me a new phone, I found my friend's phone number and called them immediately. It was already noon and on the weekend, so I was confused about why none of them answered their phones. I mean, those girls were literally always with their phones. I really wanted to speak to them, but I guess I had to wait until later to try calling them again. Maybe they were busy with something. I spent most of my time inside my room and I was getting bored. Normally, my mother didn’t like it when l took my food upstairs but this time, she brought the food to my room by herself. I hadn’t gotten any reason to go downstairs. I needed a change of environment, so I decided to freshen up and head downstairs. I was pretty sure Rowan and Jason were playing video games in the living room. After spending about thirty minutes in the bathroom, I dressed up in my comfortable sweatshirt and shorts before making my way downstairs. “Hey,” Jason said as soon a

Chapter 264Olivia ~•~I wanted to accompany Alexander when he was going to see Maxim, but he refused. I knew that he didn’t want me to see him, but still, he said I was going to see him later. After helping Riley with dinner and giving her medication, I went back to the room to meet Alexander. I hadn’t talked to him since he came back from the station. “Hey, what happened at the station?” I asked him as I walked into the room. He was standing in front of the closet and searching through it. “I have something to tell you,” Alexander muttered under his breath. My interest became piqued. “I’m listening,” I responded as different thoughts ran through my head. Alexander sounded so serious and I couldn’t help but wonder what he wanted to say to me. He took a deep breath and turned around. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier.” He cleared his throat and continued. “You remember when you found out that Maxim was a fraud?” He asked and I nodded, anticipating what he had to say next. “Y

Chapter 263Riley Burke~•~When we finished at the restaurant, my father asked my mother to drive me back home. He wanted to go to the station to see Maxim and the other men who kept me hostage. My mother wanted to accompany him but he refused, saying she would see him later. As soon as my father left, I followed my mother to the car. I couldn’t wait to go back home and see my brothers. I was so excited to see everyone. Being free felt so good. “Riley, I’m inviting the doctor over, so she can do a checkup and give you the necessary treatments you need.” My mother said as I settled down on the passenger’s seat. I hated anything related to hospitals or medical care, but I couldn’t protest against it. I actually needed medication because I was still in pain. My legs and my head were still hurting and I needed the pain to stop. “Sure,” I responded with a smile and my mother nodded. A few minutes later, we arrived at the house. My heart leaped for joy as the security guards open

Chapter 262 Rowan Burke ~•~I loved my sister but I had no idea that her absence would affect me so badly. Ever since I realized she was missing, I couldn’t even focus on anything else. My mind was always racing with different thoughts. What if something bad had happened to her and my parents took so long to search for her? Everyone thought Riley had willingly disappeared but that wasn’t the case. My sister was missing. I couldn’t even talk to anyone or go anywhere. I shut everyone out, including my girlfriend, Belle. Until Riley was found, I was certain that I would be restless. While my parents were at the station, I kept on blowing their phones with constant calls. Most of the time, they didn’t respond. A part of me felt bad because I wanted to be kept in the loop, I wanted to know what was going on, or even if they had gotten a lead. But I knew that they were busy and my calls were distracting them from doing their work. When my mother finally answered her phone, she a

Chapter 261Olivia ~•~Different waves of emotions rushed through me as I saw Riley running in our direction. Relief, joy, and gratitude swirled together, overwhelming me.I was so happy to see her. For a moment, I thought we were at a dead end. I thought she had left the house or the men they caught were probably lying about her whereabouts. She looked so scared but also excited to see us. Before I could even move, Alexander rushed and pulled her in a tight hug. I was still in shock as I watched them reunite. After a few moments, I joined them, turning the hug into a group hug. “Oh my baby, um happy to see you.” I smiled at Riley as we broke the hug. Riley looked like she was struggling to hold back her tears. I could only imagine what she had gone through at the hands of those people. Alexander stepped aside to call the detectives. He wanted them to know that we had seen Riley. While he made the call, I led Riley to the car. As soon as we got into the car, I began asking her
