THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 124 To Take Care of You
It was Hammer Yassir.Relief swept over me the moment I saw him. His white coat gave him an aura of calm authority, and as he stepped into the room, the chaos seemed to freeze. His voice, deep and steady, cut through the noise like a scalpel."The hospital security will be here soon, stop making trouble!" he barked. "This is a hospital! Those who are watching the fun, please go away!"The crowd, which had been growing larger with every second of drama, began to scatter as if commanded by an unseen force. I finally allowed myself to breathe, the tension in my chest easing slightly.He turned toward the nurses next, his tone softer but no less commanding."Go check on the patient first."I moved aside as the head nurse led her team into the ward. My hands trembled slightly as I stepped away from my brother’s bed, but I forced myself to stand tall. Michael’s fate depended on me staying sharp and composed, not on emotions or theatrics.As I walked toward Hammer and Jian, I noticed that Ji

Hammer Yassir’s calm, composed words hung between us like a protective shield. He smiled as if unfazed by the tension crackling in the air, his tone polite."Michael Liamson is my patient. Whether I’ve resigned or not, I will remain responsible for his care. Zelda is my friend and junior sister—helping her is only natural." His eyes didn’t waver as they locked on James Ferguson’s hand gripping my shoulder.The weight of his stare was like a challenge. "Since Mr Ferguson and Zelda have registered for divorce, perhaps a bit of distance would be appropriate."I felt James's hand tighten just slightly, a subtle increase in pressure that seemed almost possessive, even though his expression remained infuriatingly calm. He raised an eyebrow and responded smoothly."It’s just registration," he murmured, his voice low and filled with a deliberate edge. "Nothing can be said until the dust settles, right, Mrs. Ferguson?"My breath caught as he leaned in, his lips so close to my ear that his word

JamesZelda Liamson frowned, her head shifting slightly beneath my grip. The moment her fiery resistance dulled into calm, I released her, catching sight of the red imprint my hand had left on her delicate cheek.A surge of regret tightened my chest, though I masked it quickly. My brows drew together as I spoke in a low, controlled voice."Have you fed all your former kindness to the dogs?"Her eyes glinted with defiance. "Yes, I fed them to you."That sharp reply should have stung more, but instead, it struck a strange, unwelcome chord of familiarity. I clenched my jaw, annoyed at myself. I was getting used to this.Before I could shake off that unsettling realization, her next words broke through like a blade:"Are you jealous?"The accusation hung in the air, daring me to acknowledge it. My pulse quickened, but I refused to let it show. Instead, I allowed a smirk to curl my lips."We haven’t officially divorced yet."She met my calm with fire."Then after a month, I can be with Ham

I stood frozen, unable to comprehend what was happening as Hilder Ferguson’s hands closed around my neck. I could feel the pressure building, but my brain was too slow to process anything. The sheer intensity of her anger made everything blur, and I couldn’t react in time.But before I could even gasp for air, I heard a voice behind me, sharp and commanding."Enough."James Ferguson’s hand seized Hilder's, pulling her away from me effortlessly. With one motion, he threw her to the floor. My heart raced, both from the panic of the moment and the relief that I was no longer in immediate danger. But his voice, cold and disapproving, cut through everything."You’ve been locked up for a day and a night, and you still don’t know what’s wrong?"I didn’t know how to respond, my mind still reeling from the sudden confrontation. As James pulled me toward him, I cast a glance at Hilder, now crumpled on the floor, her face pale and haggard, her eyes wide with fear. I couldn’t help but notice how

ZeldaThe car was suffocating. Every breath felt heavy, the air thick with unspoken accusations. James Ferguson, his face a mask of icy indifference, sat beside me, his presence radiating a chilling coldness that seeped into my bones. Hilder Ferguson's words echoed in my mind, a venomous snake slithering through my thoughts."Did the Yassir family really propose marriage to the Ferguson family five years ago?" James Ferguson's voice, low and dangerous, broke through the suffocating silence. "You really didn't know about this?"James's words, like a physical blow, sent a wave of nausea crashing over me. My eyes stung with unshed tears, and I stared at him, disbelief and fury warring within me."What do you mean? Do you think the same as Hilder Ferguson, that I drugged your drink to avoid marrying Hammer Yassir?"The silence that followed was deafening. His brow furrowed, his gaze piercing, and I saw it in his eyes – the chilling suspicion, the deep-seated doubt. He actually believed it

ZeldaWronged? Hurt?How could I not feel aggrieved? I had been wronged for years. Five long, relentless years of being misunderstood, judged, and condemned.I had done nothing that night—absolutely nothing—but overnight, I became the laughingstock of the upper-class society. People whispered, sneered, and outright labelled me a slut who slept with her brother. Their disdain and mockery knew no bounds.In everyone's eyes, I was ungrateful, sinister, and greedy—a parasite feeding off the Ferguson family. The weight of their judgment bore down on me, and no matter how many times I wanted to scream the truth, no one would hear it. No one wanted to hear it.At the time, I convinced myself it didn’t matter what others thought of me. If he believed in me, it would be enough.But he didn’t.The man who should have stood by me, who should have seen the truth in my eyes—he looked at me with the same contempt as the rest. He trampled me underfoot and cast me into a hell I couldn’t escape.For y

JamesI sat in the backseat of the car, staring out the window at the figure of Zelda Liamson walking away.I kept my expression blank, unwilling to betray the thoughts swirling in my mind.“Follow her,” I instructed, my tone calm and controlled.The driver, accustomed to my clipped orders, nodded and slowly began trailing behind her.As I watched her get into a taxi, my chest tightened. She didn’t break. Not outwardly, at least. No tears, no hesitation—just that composed mask she wore so well. But I knew better. Zelda wasn’t one to show her emotions easily. I worried she’d shatter the moment she was out of sight."Boss, do you want to keep following her?" the driver asked, his voice cautious.I glanced at the taxi’s license plate. “No,” I replied, leaning back in my seat. “Let her go. Head to the western suburbs.”I didn’t need to hover over Zelda. She’d be fine—or at least, she’d pretend to be. Either way, there were more pressing matters to handle.By the time I arrived at the aban

ZeldaIt took me a while to fully grasp what had happened after being questioned at the police station. Piece by piece, I unravelled the chain of events—one more unbelievable than the last.Apparently, right after I left the hospital, Jian had gotten into an argument with Susan Wenger. Typical Jian, I thought, always diving headfirst into chaos. But this time, her recklessness had turned into an unexpected advantage.Jian had called the police on the spot, accusing Susan of bullying, online slander, and orchestrating a plan to incite trouble and blackmail at the hospital. And as if that wasn’t bold enough, she waved the phone of the tall man who had been live-streaming in Susan’s face.I could almost see the scene in my mind: Susan's face shifted from smugness to panic as Jian cornered her. Jian, of course, had been prepared. It seemed Susan had panicked so badly that she sent someone to steal the phone back.The guy she sent? He walked right into Jian’s trap.The police had arrived i

ZeldaLilian Wenger's red eyes and embarrassed flush were hard to ignore. She’s a dancer of some renown, and those in the arts often possess a certain nobility. But the comfortable life she was accustomed to was clearly weighing on her, the thought of losing it all outweighing any sense of shame.I never expected Susan to still be lying to her parents, still clinging to the fiction that James is her child’s father. My brow furrowed.“Please?” I prompted.“James has stopped investing in the Wenger family. It was agreed upon, but he’s cut us off without warning. Our funding has dried up…” This was news to me.James hadn’t breathed a word of it.“Zee, for your grandmother’s sake, you can’t just stand by and watch the Wenger family crumble. Grandma and Grandpa built that business.”Grandmother Wenger passed away when I was five. My memories are hazy, but I remember her warmth and her adoration. It’s undeniable that my adoption by the Fergusons was tied to my connection to the Wenger famil

ZeldaI woke up in the big bed at the Mansion, disoriented. The last thing I remembered was being in the car with James, the argument hanging heavy in the air. I looked down. My clothes had been changed. They were clean and fresh. Aunt Jiang, no doubt.My lips felt strange, a little sore, with a faint medicinal scent, like antiseptic. Someone had been… cleaning them? The thought made me uneasy.Aunt Jiang bustled in.“Madam, you’re finally awake! I’ve been to check on you twice. Breakfast is ready. Please eat quickly, so you can take it to your husband.”“How did I get home last night?” I asked, my voice still thick with sleep.“Mr. Ferguson carried you back himself, Madam. He took care of you all night before returning to the hospital. He wouldn’t let me help. I don’t know if his wound reopened. He looked so worried. His face was so pale when he left…”My brow furrowed. Guilt, sharp and unexpected, pierced through me. Aunt Jiang’s words painted a picture of James, concerned and carin

ZeldaA prickling sensation crawled up my spine. Something was wrong. As the man reached for me, I reacted instinctively, swinging my bag and hitting him squarely in the face.“Someone, help! Help!” I yelled, my voice ringing out across the crowded club.The commotion drew attention, but the two men were quick. One grabbed the woman in the red dress, while the other wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me close.“Baby, stop making trouble,” he said loudly, his voice dripping with false concern. “Let’s not quarrel, okay? It’s all my fault! Sorry, my wife drank too much…”He was trying to drag me away, to make it look like a lovers’ spat.Panic clawed at me. I saw, out of the corner of my eye, that the people I’d hoped would notice were buying his act, turning back to their dancing.“I’m gay!” I shouted, desperation giving my voice an edge. “Let me and my wife go! We’re a couple! We don’t even know you!”I struggled against his grip, trying to reach the woman in the red dress. “Let

ZeldaMy heart plummeted. James… he’d lied. Deliberately.The thought echoed in my mind, a cold, sharp shard of ice. He’d manufactured this whole injury, just to manipulate me, just for the baby. The same way Hellen Ferguson only cared about the child, not about… me.The realization stung, leaving me feeling foolish and betrayed.My legs had gone numb. I hadn’t even noticed the bodyguards leaving. I sank to the floor, hugging my knees, trying to contain the rising panic. After what felt like an eternity, I forced myself to stand. I clutched the incubator, a fragile shield against the truth, and walked to his ward. I needed to hear it from him. I needed to understand.But as I cracked open the door, their voices drifted out, stopping me cold.“Brother has succeeded in wooing his wife? Didn’t little Zelda Liamson cry and make a fuss before, insisting on getting a divorce and going abroad?” Miguel’s voice was laced with that familiar, subtle mockery.Then Yuell Qing’s laughter was sharp
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 176 The Injury
ZeldaI blinked, realizing just how cunning James really was. He hadn't explicitly said anything about cancelling the divorce, but he’d subtly manoeuvred me into this position. Unbelievable.I puffed out my cheeks."You wish! I can't even count the ways you've made me unhappy. I'm only staying temporarily because of Little One, and because your injury is partly my fault! Don't think you've won me over that easily. You're just an…apprentice husband at best!""Apprentice husband?" James raised an eyebrow.I nodded firmly. "Don't you understand? Like the interns at Ferguson's. You're on probation. Less than a month. If your performance is satisfactory, I'll consider things. But if it's not…Mr. Ferguson should be very clear on the process, right?"He was silent for a moment, then I narrowed my eyes."Do you have any objections?“He clicked his tongue, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Then perhaps Mrs. Ferguson could enlighten me on the criteria for this…internship? What requirements must

Zelda"What paternity test?" I asked, my brow furrowed. I took the phone from James, staring at the report on the screen.It wasn't a paternity test at all. It was a kinship test. And the result…grandfather-granddaughter? My confusion deepened."Whose grandchild is this?"I scrolled back, finally taking in the names of the individuals involved in the assessment. My eyes widened in surprise."It's…Bai Luoqi's child?"Luoqi! It all clicked into place. He’d passed away, which explained why James was so invested in this child. Luoqi had been busy with the Bai family’s overseas business these past few years, just like Susan.They’d both been out of the Country. And then, the timing…Susan had returned with James and the Bai's. The media had assumed they were Susan’s parents, making all sorts of incorrect assumptions. No wonder they’d all come back together."So," I said slowly, piecing it together, "the Bai family's IPO is at a critical stage. Luoqi's death is a huge blow, and you’re trying

ZeldaMy mind was a whirlwind. Tissues, where were the tissues? Liamson, Zelda Liamson, that's me, and right now I was trying desperately to stop James's nosebleed. It was all so embarrassing!And then there was James, throwing that cup of water. At Xavier! His brother. I felt a surge of mortification."I told you to stop messing around!" I scolded, my cheeks burning. "This whole ward is a mess!"James, bless his heart, just looked gloomy."It's inconvenient," he mumbled, "Let's just get discharged tomorrow.""Discharged?" I exclaimed, aghast. "How can we? Your injuries aren't nearly healed! And…and I need to see Xavier. James, why did you hit him?"I turned to go out, but James grabbed my wrist, his grip surprisingly tight. It startled me."What's wrong?" I asked, looking at him.He seemed to realize he'd been too rough and loosened his hold a little."I think…I think my wound might have opened again. It hurts," he said, his brow furrowed.My worry instantly eclipsed everything else.
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 173 Happened Again
I was stunned. My head snapped back, and a jolt of disbelief running through me.“How could you even think that?!” I exclaimed, my voice rising in disbelief. “There’s nothing between me and my Hammer. I don’t… I don’t like him! How could you even imagine such a thing?”James’s expression was a mixture of anger and something else… hurt? He sneered a harsh, bitter sound.“He coveted you back then. He even dared to come to the Ferguson family to propose! And in the past two years, he abandoned his life as the heir to the Yassir family to work at the Ferguson hospital… just to be near you. You kissed in the car. You hid your pregnancy. You talked about divorce. You were going to go abroad with him! And just now… you were snuggled in his arms! What am I supposed to think, Zelda? What?”His words hit me like a physical blow. He loosened his grip on my chin, but the damage was done. My neck felt strained, stretched to its limit. I stared at him, his eyes burning with a cold fury, and a wave
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 172 Are You Jealous
ZeldaHis hand, James’s hand, was a vice around my waist. His fingers pressed right on the bruise, a throbbing reminder of his unfounded anger. The scene in the ward replayed in my mind, fueling my own simmering frustration. He’d stormed out, furious, without even knowing what had happened.Then, his accusation about Hammer. I glanced at Hammer’s cheek, the fading bruise a testament to James’s… overreaction. Something snapped. I shoved him away, my brow furrowed.“James, have you said enough?!” I retorted, my voice trembling slightly. “I just fell asleep. Brother was worried I’d catch a cold and put his coat on me. Is that so terrible? I asked him for help at the airport. If you want to blame someone, blame me. Why involve him?”A wave of hurt washed over me. If James hadn’t forgotten I was waiting outside, would I have fallen asleep on that bench? And he had hugged Susan in front of me, without a word of explanation, but my innocent interaction with Hammer was enough to ignite his ra
