THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 90 Feel It
I could hear his voice, that familiar, grating tone, and for a moment, I wondered if I was imagining it. There was no way he was here—not now, not after everything. He should be with Susan, shouldn’t he? Yet, there he was, standing above me, his voice cutting through the silence like a blade."Zelda Liamson! You were the one showing off just now, why are you pretending to be weak and pitiful in front of me now?"The anger in his voice should have ignited something inside me, but instead, all I could feel was an overwhelming numbness. I didn’t want his concern. I didn’t want him to see me like this. I couldn’t afford to be this weak.I barely registered his presence before I felt his hand reaching for my face. Something inside me snapped, and I instinctively pushed his hand away, trying to push him out of my space.The sound of his palm smacking against the air was a harsh reminder of how much had changed between us.“Go away! It's none of your business!” I tried to push him out of my

JamesI was clearly just helping her take off her pants and apply medicine, but I acted as if something had happened between us.Zelda blushed and reached out to push me away. But I grabbed her hand, put it on my lips, and kissed it, smiling."Do you like me kissing you like this?"A tingling sensation spread from my lips to her fingertips throughout her body, like an electric shock. She unconsciously leaned limply into my arms, too embarrassed to say a word. Was this flirting? Although we had done similar things before, we had never flirted like a couple until now.I wasn’t like this before. I had been very silent and depressed in bed. Even during our most decadent moments, I never said such daring things, asking her if she liked it or not. In the past, I made her feel like she was handing in homework.But now, I didn’t even do anything significant; I just kissed her fingers and rubbed her ears and neck, and Zelda wanted to surrender to me. This is horrible. She shouldn’t have indulg

The private room of the Royal Court Club was opulent, the kind of place where you couldn’t help but feel a little indulgent. I leaned back in my chair, swirling the amber liquid in my glass, listening absentmindedly as Miguel and Yuell chatted. Their words blended into the background—something about another reunion. Normally, I’d contribute, but tonight, my mind was elsewhere.“It’s true what they say—he succeeded in business but failed in love,” Miguel teased, leaning toward me. “Brother, you and Zelda haven’t reconciled yet?”I chuckled dryly and shook my head. “What do you know? Even if we quarrel, our relationship is still very good.” My words were calm, but even I could hear the hollowness in them.Miguel sighed. "Okay, okay, you two have a good relationship. Zelda can’t live without you. But no matter how good a relationship is, constant arguments can hurt. It’s been so many days..."Twenty-nine days. That’s how long it had been since she first asked for a divorce. I didn’t need

My chest tightened as I stared at Cheng, his words cutting through the noise around me."What did you say," I demanded, my voice low and tense.He swallowed before continuing, "I just received a call from Xavier. Your wife has a high fever and has been sent to the hospital."I didn’t wait for him to finish. My legs moved on their own, carrying me out of the club. Cheng scrambled to keep up, but I didn’t care if he followed or not.Behind me, I heard Susan’s voice faintly as she realized what was happening. She tried to chase after me, but the elevator doors closed before she could catch up.Good.My mind raced, thinking about Zelda. She wasn’t at the club tonight—was this why?When I exited the building, Cheng was still trying to relay more details, but I tuned him out, my sole focus on getting to her.By the time I reached the hospital, I barely registered the sterile smell of antiseptic or the hu

I bit my lip, struggling to find the words."My Brother... um..."Before I could finish, James suddenly leaned over, capturing my lips with his. His kiss was fierce, his breath warm and insistent.I was taken aback, forced to tilt my head back as his intensity overwhelmed me. The warmth of his lips, and the possessiveness of his actions, left me defenseless. For a moment, I forgot to resist.When he finally let me go, I gasped for air, my face flushed and my mind blank.He pressed his hand to my forehead, his dark eyes boring into mine."Brother and sister? So, you think we are committing incest now?"Panting, I struggled to process his words. Wasn’t he the one who had always resisted this relationship? He was the one who ignored me for five years, who refused to have children, claiming it was incestuous.Yet here he was."Zelda Liamson, I don't kiss my sister like this."I felt like I had been struck direct

JamesThe moment Cheng stepped into the office, his demeanour screamed unease. He moved cautiously, his phone in hand, as if the news he carried would set off a bomb.“Boss,” he began, his voice carefully measured, “you and your wife are both trending on the Internet.”I didn’t react immediately. Trending on the Internet? Of course, it would be something trivial.Cheng continued, “You attended Miss Susan’s recital yesterday, and the First Lady asked you to hold her bouquet. A photo of you holding the flowers was taken and posted online. It's causing quite a stir.”His eyes darted nervously as he added, “Your wife, on the other hand, went to watch your brother's race last night. Some photos of them looking... close were taken and posted online as well. Netizens don’t know they’re brother-in-law and sister-in-law. They’re calling it a scandal....”The way he delivere

ZeldaI didn’t want James Ferguson to suspect I had been studying abroad, so before Liz could clarify, I nodded and said with a small smile,“Yes, I am the translator. However, with Mr. Ferguson’s Italian skills, it seems I’m unnecessary here.”Liz didn’t seem to mind my improvisation. She had originally brought a translator, but their delayed flight had left her without one. Since I spoke Italian, she had asked me on the way to the hotel to step in temporarily.Susan stood awkwardly to the side, unable to follow our Italian conversation. Her discomfort was evident, her expression pinched and her fists clenched. She looked like she was shrinking into herself, and I could almost feel the hatred radiating off her.Without acknowledging her, I quickly followed Liz into her room. The door shut softly behind us, leaving Susan outside.I could imagine her frustration even without hearing it.When I return

JamesFrom the moment I spotted her, something in me tightened. Zelda Liamson was crouched on the cold ground outside the hotel, barefoot and clad only in a thin dance costume. She clutched her phone like it was her last lifeline, her face pale, her shoulders trembling slightly. She looked completely lost, like a lone figure adrift in an unforgiving storm.It was hard to reconcile this image with what Anna had told me earlier. Anna claimed she’d left irresponsibly, but this? This wasn’t the demeanour of someone careless or dismissive. Something had clearly gone wrong, but I didn’t move.Chen Ting, sitting stiffly in the driver’s seat, glanced back at me hesitantly. “Boss, should I go ask Madam what happened?”I kept my eyes on her, my hand gripping the door handle tightly. My thoughts churned, but I didn’t respond.I wasn’t sure what stopped me. The sight of her like this stirred something unfamiliar—a mix of frustration and something else I didn’t want to name. But before I could act

ZeldaAs the door shut, James exhaled sharply, running a hand through his hair. His body was tense, his fists clenched at his sides.James stood motionless, staring at the door, his jaw clenched so tightly that I thought he might break.Mr Ferguson was the first to speak, his voice firm but not unkind.“James, I know you’re angry, but she’s still your mother.”James let out a bitter laugh, shaking his head. “Still my mother?” His voice wavered. “What kind of mother does this to her child? What kind of mother lets him suffer for years and then—then when the truth comes out, she refuses to even acknowledge it?”His father sighed, rubbing a hand down his face. “She’s scared, James. Scared of losing everything she’s built, scared of what the truth means.”James turned on him, pained.“And what about me? Does she care how scared I was? How much I lost? How I spent years believing I was the mistake, that everything that went wrong was somehow my fault?”Helen’s voice trembled from the doorw
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 264 I Have Proof
ZeldaI sit on the edge of the bed, staring at the divorce papers I had once been so ready to sign. My hands rest over my stomach, where our child—my child—grows.I told myself I wouldn't cry over James Ferguson again. But here I am, my heart still aching in ways I wish it wouldn't.He had always been my saviour. When I was just a scared thirteen-year-old girl, lost and alone, James had taken me in. I admired him, idolized him. But then admiration turned into something else. Love. The kind that consumed me, that I could never shake off, no matter how hard I tried.But James had never seen me that way.First, it was Susan Wenger... I watched as he gave everything to Susan, how he smiled at her the way I had always wished he would look at me. And when Susan was gone, I thought—maybe—just maybe, James would see me.But then came Luoxing.And that had been the final proof I needed to know the truth. I was never going to be James's first choice.That was why I decided to leave. I refused t
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 263 Showing Mercy
JamesThe Bai estate was as grand as ever, standing as a symbol of power, wealth, and the history that bound our families together.Or so I thought.I stepped inside without hesitation. No one stopped me. They never would. For years, I had been welcomed here like a son.I had thought I was.But tonight, the weight of betrayal clung to me like a second skin, suffocating, inescapable and true.As I entered the main hall, I found them all gathered—Mr. Bai, Mrs. Bai, and their daughter, Bai Luoxing.The moment they saw me, Luoxing was the first to react. She stood up, her eyes filled with something between relief and hesitation."James!"I lifted a hand to my head, stopping her in her tracks.She hesitated, then slowly sat back down, casting a quick glance toward her mother.Mrs Bai, ever composed, sat calmly at the head of the table, an air of relaxed control around her. She didn’t look surprised to see me.She probably didn’t know that I knew everything.Mr. Bai, on the other hand, was
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 262 I Need to Know
JamesA slow, numbing realization crept over me, drowning out everything else.The Bai family hadn’t just manipulated me.They had shaped my entire life."They couldn’t just bring Luoxing back," Dom continued, his voice low. "Not when the whole world was looking for her. Not when they hadn't gotten anything from their attempt. So they kept her hidden, cared for her, made sure no one found her."I barely heard him. My mind was already racing ahead, connecting pieces I had never thought to question before."But the Ferguson family—" My voice caught. "We never stopped searching for her.""And that’s exactly what they wanted."I snapped my gaze to him."Think about it, James." Dom leaned forward, the dim light casting sharp shadows on his face."Your parents. Your grandmother. You. You were all drowning in guilt, haunted by the loss of a little girl you thought you failed to protect. You clung to Madame Bai and saw her as a second mother because she was grieving too. She played her role p
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 261 Start Talking
JamesThe air in the car was filled with tension, Zelda's rigid posture and clenched phone screaming her silent fury at me. I deserved it—every bit of her anger, every cold shoulder. But damn if it didn't carve a hollow ache in my chest.Then my phone buzzed, slicing through the suffocating quiet.I answered, and within seconds, the tension in my shoulders eased."We found Dom."The words sent a rush of grim satisfaction through me. Finally. After all the hunting, all the dead ends—we had him.My grip tightened on the phone. "Alive?""Barely. He's talking."Good.I glanced at Zelda, still stubbornly turned away from me, her reflection faint in the window. This changed everything. With Dom's testimony, the Bai family's carefully constructed lies would crumble.But first—"Keep him secure. I'll be there soon."Hanging up, I studied Zelda's profile. She thought this was about the divorce. About me stalling.She had no idea the storm that was coming.And for once, I'd be the one to shield
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 260 I am sorry
JamesMadam Bai’s fingers combed through Bai Luoxing’s hair with practised tenderness, her voice saccharine."Don’t cry. Mom knows your heart is too soft—you would have stopped me if you knew."Then she lifted her chin, her blind eyes fixed in my direction with eerie precision."James, I only helped your wife leave because she wanted to. I didn’t want you two to become bitter enemies. You may not understand my intentions, but the truth is, this all started with her desire to run. Luoxing is innocent."Innocent.The word tasted like ash."So sending men to hunt her down—was that also a favour?" My voice was lethally quiet.Madam Bai’s wrinkled face twisted in feigned confusion."Hunt her? James, I only sent people to find her after she disappeared! For her safety! And my nephew—where is Dom? Did you see him?"Zelda stiffened beside me. I could almost hear the furious drum of her heartbeat.I stared at the woman who had once been like a second mother to me.Even now, faced with the trut
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 259 All Of It
JamesMy lashes lowered, hiding the smug satisfaction in my gaze as I buried my face against her again. Good. She didn’t push me away this time.Then— Thump.Something struck the side of my face.I froze.Before I could process it, another hit—this time square on the bridge of my nose. Not painful, but sharp, like a tiny jolt of electricity.My head snapped up, eyes wide."Was that… Littleton?"Zelda’s lips curled, amusement flickering in her gaze before she pressed them flat again."Littleton’s here to teach you some manners," she said dryly.Of course, it was Littleton.Even in the womb, my kid couldn’t stand watching their shameless father grovelling like this and decided to intervene.A stunned laugh caught in my throat.I stared at the slight swell of her belly, then slowly raised my hand, pressing my fingers where I’d been kicked. The impact had been soft, muted by layers of flesh and fluid, but it sent a current straight through my chest.My heart hammered—not from fever, but s
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 258 Faking It
JamesThe pain in my chest was sharp, unrelenting, as I watched her smile—so effortless, so free. As if I meant nothing.If it were up to me, I’d never let her go.Especially not now, with those men hovering around her like vultures, waiting for their chance. But I couldn’t do anything. Not anymore.I didn’t dare to force her, didn’t dare to manipulate things behind her back like I used to. One wrong move, and she’d slip even further from my grasp.And then there was Dom. Until he was dealt with, she wasn’t safe here."Don’t worry," I said, my voice steady despite the storm inside me. "I’ll fulfil your wish this time. Consider it… compensation for the wedding."That damned wedding. My fault. All of it.Maybe ending this marriage was the only way to truly start over. She looked at me then, her eyes searching mine, and for the first time, she saw it—my resolve. No tricks, no games. This was real.Her lashes fluttered, her grip on my collar loosening as she whispered,"So after we land…
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET, CHASING AFTER ME Chapter 257 The Cousin
ZeldaOf course I couldn't bear it.I never wanted to compete with Bai Luoxing for anything. She was the one who forced her way into my marriage. Even then, I retreated—step by step, until I'd put an ocean between us.Yet the Bai family still wouldn't let me go. They wanted me dead. How vicious could they be?But Leiy hadn't said much earlier. Even I was only guessing. Did James... already know it was them?My eyes widened in shock. "You knew? Bai Luoxing helped me leave the country, and the Bai family has been hunting me since I landed—"His face darkened at the mention of my escape. "How else do you think I found you?"I pressed my lips together, then let out a cold laugh."Well, color me surprised. I thought even if I accused the Bai family, you'd assume I was just smearing their name out of spite."The pain that flashed across his face was sharp enough to almost make me regret my words. Almost.His chest heaved, and before I could react, his hand shot out, gripping the back of my
