THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y CHAPTER 19: THE HOSPITAL
Chapter 19“Where am I?” What am I doing here?”Lila tried to raise herself up from the bed, but her feeble knees and tired hands were too weak to allow her to do that.She looked around and saw a man in white, with his name tag showing that he's a doctor at Denyce Hospital, smiling at her.“Ah, madam! You're awake! Thank goodness!” The doctor said and let out a heavy sigh.“Lila was dumbfounded; she neither returned the smile nor said anything. She still didn't understand why she was in a hospital gown instead of her clothes and her hands patched with bandages.“Doctor, why am I in a hospital?” She asked calmly.The doctor was not quick to answer her; he just smiled at her again, and immediately, she saw a young lady walk in and stand beside the doctor—probably, she should be a nurse or doctor because she's also on white.“Ok, this is nurse Kate; you can tell her anything you want and how you feel from now on. She'll always be there for you.”“Nurse, over to you. I'm off to my office

Chapter 20The nurse started thinking suspiciously of Lila. She immediately took out her phone to check the latest news channel. In the media platform, current news is always disseminated first before any other news channel would capture it. It always has reports of events happening live and even the ones that took place just thirty minutes a while. “If she's a criminal, I should be able to find something about her here. It's been three days since this accident happened.” The nurse thought.Lila could not tell why the nurse’s look at her changed at the moment.She noticed how the nurse stylishly took her head up and down, looking at her while she pressed her phone. But that one is of no concern to her. The most important thing is that no one in her family knows where she is.Lila looked beside her bed but couldn't catch sight of any of her belongings—her bag.“Excuse me, nurse, do you see my handbag?”“Yes, I was supposed to give it to you when you wake up. Please, excuse me, let me

Chapter 21“Grey shun?” Lila was quite surprised to see that he was the topic of the town. She tried to keep her face away from their sight to avoid one of them saying that she knows her or looks familiar to Grey's wife-ex-wife.Lila wished that something would keep delaying nurse Tonia in the laboratory so that she could have the chance to listen to the full gossip.“Abeg, I'm too curious to hear this gist. Can you just start and stop wasting our time?” One of the nurses said.“Alright, do you know his 2-year-old daughter?” the nurse paused and put her hands on her chin to remember something before she continued.“What is the name of the girl again,... Ehem, Jannel?”“Rumour has it that Jannel is not his daughter!”“What?” All the rest echoed in shock.“Are you for real, right now?” Their voices echoing coincidentally.“Of course, yes. Trust me, I don't spread fake gossip! I always do my research before believing in gossip.” The nurse explained.“And to crown it all, I also heard tha

Chapter 22“It's okay. You guys have digested enough of this man's topic today. Don't you people have work to do? It's high time you allow the sleeping dog to lay and go face your work!” Nurse Tonia scolded them, and they all dispatched to their various duty posts before she continued moving with Lila.“I'm sorry for keeping you out here for so long, Lila. I had to ensure that the scientists were doing the right thing.”“No problem, nurse Tonia D; I totally understand. You see, that's why I told you even before now that you're the best. And you can see for yourself now!” Lila said jokingly, and they both laughed.“Besides, I wasn't bored at all. At least I was entertained by their discussion.” Lila added, so that she could hear nurse Tonia's side of the story and how she'll judge it.“Never mind those gossips. They can't face their lives except to gossip about others.” Nurse Tonia scoffed.“Lols!” Lila smiled.“You don't have to blame them. They're only humans. So if you give people

Chapter 23YOU'RE PREGNANT Lila's face brimmed with joy with ceaseless smiles before she started reading the letter. Relaxing her back on the pillow, she focused her attention on the letter as she read,“Dear, Stanger, I don't know you, and I'm sure the same applies to you. I hope this letter finds you in good health. I'm sorry, I couldn't wait for you to wake up so that we can talk and, at least, know each other.I couldn't help but carry you to the nearest hospital when I saw your helpless condition after being hit by a car. I lost my mother to the cold hands of death through an accident because no one was there to save her when it happened until she finally gave up. Since then, I promised never to see an accident victim pass by without helping out. I hope the doctors and nurses take good care of you to speed up your healing process.I wish you a quick recovery, my dear. And next time, be careful of walking around in the night.Yours sincerely.”The writer only ended the letter w

Chapter 24Lila's weird reactions never cease to stun nurse Tonia. She gazed at her in silence, with several thoughts conceived in her mind.“Why is everything about her different? On a hospital bed, she doesn't want her family to know, and now pregnant, she's not happy! What actually could be her problem?”"Congratulations, ma'am,” nurse Tonia said with a faint smile, trying to cover her suspicions.Lila wasn't quick to answer. She glared at nurse Tonia and, at the same time, her test result.“Congratulations, ma'am,” nurse Tonia repeated.“Oh, thank you, nurse,” Lila replied with her voice devoid of any joy, not even a fake smile.“Nurse? Just a nurse? Something must be wrong! But I can't just go ahead and ask. Let me mind my business. She'll tell me when she wants to.” Nurse Tonia thought and shrugged.She was quite surprised because that was the first time Lila addressed her without including her name, Tonia D.“Nurse Tonia,”“Yes, ma'am Lila,” she replied with a smile.“Since I

Chapter 25Lila stared at Aunt Kendy in silence. She wished there's a way age could escape answering that question.“Miss Lila,” Aunt Kendy waved her hand over her face.“Did I say something wrong?”“No. Not at all.” I'm just wishing that I see that good Samaritan that brought me here.” Lila tried to convince her with a lie.She pointed her things to Aunt Kendy, who helped her arrange them in a bag before they left.“Please don't forget, ma'am Lila, you have an appointment with the obstetrician in the next three days. Hope to see you soon.” Nurse Tonia concluded before waving her goodbye.“Obstetrician? Isn't that a doctor that handles pregnancy issues? Does that mean my miss Lila is pregnant?” Kendy thought to herself, but fear won't let her voice her curiosity out.Lila called her cap driver to come pick them up.While they engaged in conversations in the car, Kendy observed that Lila was always finding a means to terminate or change the focus of any discussion that had to do with h

Chapter 26Seeing the fierce look in her eyes as she made such a declaration, Aunt Kendy was moved with pity for her, as she imagined the pains her princess must have passed through for the sake of marriage.“If you have any stuff you'll love to carry along, please do that by tomorrow. Our flight is in the next two days. Try and ensure you don't forget any valuables.” Lila suggested.“Mum, you've been quiet since you got back from the hospital. Is everything okay?” Grey asked his mother.“Besides, you've been looking so pale lately.” He added.Mrs. Shun’s mind and emotions had been shattered since the day Lila overheard her conversation with her stepmother.“Of course, I'm sure she heard us. That girl is a devil! I know she was just lying when she said she didn't hear anything.” She thought to herself.“I'm fine, son. I'm just worried about Cynthia's dad's condition. I really pray he should get well soon, you know. Because Anabella is too close to him, and it would be bad if that litt

CHAPTER 81DYING OF DEPRESSION “Hey, is everything okay? ” Lila asked, feigning concern the moment Grey dropped the call.“Yeah, fine. Everything is okay,” he said with a twitch. Grey sighed heavily, trying to conceal his heartbreak in a mild smile but the sad look on his face was too evident to deceive even a blind man.“Oh, thank God, our food is here. Trust me, you'll like their meal, because I've been eating here often, and I can say with confidence that this is one of the best places to eat out,” Lila commented as soon as the waitress served their order and left.With her eyes fixed on the plate before her but obliquely gazing at Grey, she unwrapped her cutleries and began eating, but was surprised to see that Grey hasn't made any attempt of tasting his food.“Mr. Shun, you don't seem to be okay. I'm sorry, this might seem as if I'm prying into your personal life but you don't expect me to believe that everything is fine with you,” she insisted.Grey was still speechless with d

CHAPTER 80CAN WE MEET?“Hi, can we meet?” Grey woke up with confusion to the beep-beep sound of his phone with Lila's message.Huh? His brows furrowed in surprise.All efforts to rack his brain and figure out the possible reason behind their meeting were unyielding.Could it be that she's suing us in court for attempted murder? But the message looks rather harmless. He thought to himself, and without hesitation, his hands quickly typed, ‘Sure, we can,’ followed by the send button.“Perfect!” Lila exclaimed, and immediately, she texted him the time and address. “Good morning, sir,” the maids and the security guards at the gate greeted Grey as he left for work. But unlike the usual Grey who'd answer nicely and ask them about their night, he only glared at them with bloodshot eyes.Every domestic staff member was familiar with that reaction from him, which mostly occurs like thrice or four times a year.Anyone who has worked in the Shun's mansion need not be told what their master is c

CHAPTER 79: NEXT MOVE “I said, let go of me! There's absolutely nothing wrong with me! I can swear to you that that woman is truly Lila.” Cynthia cried out, trying to break free from the maid's grip as they awaited the coming of the ambulance. Grey stood and glared at her dangerously. “Tell me, Cynthia. What more do I need to know before you finally get locked up in the psychiatric?” He asked with a cold and resolute tone. Hoping for an answer from the crazy woman, all he could get was an intense stare into his eyes. “Sir, the ambulance is here,” one of the maids ran to inform Grey the moment she saw the ambulance drive in. “Thank you,” Grey said politely and nodded. He took a step closer to Cynthia, grabbed her chin in a painful manner with his bloodshot eyes, and whispered into her ears, “You can choose to remain mute for the rest of your life; that, I don't care, but you see that which you're hiding from me? I swear to God, I'll be forced to storm this building and strangle you to

CHAPTER 78HER MOTHER IS NEXT. Lila and Brian knew exactly what she was talking about, but the way they both frowned in confusion, focusing their gazes on her, only made Cynthia more anxious.“I'm telling you, this woman is your ex-wife!” Cynthia retorted with confidence.“Wu! Wu! Wu!!!” Lila exclaimed, sounds of clapping following each of her exclamations.“So, that's your plan, right? Even though I don't know what you're insinuating, what if I was truly allergic to those things? That means you invited me here to kill me, right?” Lila reprimanded angrily.“I'm really sorry, Miss Rick's. Please…” Grey was talking, but Cynthia shut him up immediately.“Cut the crap, Miss Rick's or whatever you call yourself!” Cynthia ranted, looking keenly at Lila's skin, especially her neck, expecting to see it filled with rashes as that's normally her first symptom of garlic and ginger allergy, but to the greatest surprise, Lila's neck was healthy and hearty without any scratches or a trace of rashe

CHAPTER 77PROVING HER SUSPICIONS As the footsteps drew closer, she figured them to be Grey's footsteps, so she slowed down her steps so he could catch up with her.Immediately Grey approached her; he grabbed her waist from behind like a kid that has missed his mother for long.A smile washed down her face seeing how Grey violently opened the bathroom door and dragged her inside.Within a nick of time, he turned her around so they could face each other before he pinned her to the wall, and his lips wasted no time to locate hers, but Lila instantly placed her fingers across his lips. His heart was already beating faster than an athlete in a relay race.“What are you trying to do, Grey?” She asked with a cheeky smile, staring at him flirtatiously.But instead of answering her question, he seemed to be too aroused at her actions.Swiftly, he held the finger, which was on his lips, and brought it down before kissing her knuckles. Grey lifted her hand and placed it on his chest, making he

Chapter 76DINNER AT THE SHUN'S MANSION Lila smiled at her reflection in the mirror. She had spent almost two hours last night trying to find the outfit that would suit the dinner. She couldn't stop blushing at the choice of seductive dress she chose.“Hey, hope you know that I'm going with you as well?” Brian asked as he stood behind her.“Oh my God! Brian, you almost startled me, you know,” she exclaimed, throwing her lipstick to the ground.Brian had left the other night for his house, and she can't remember discussing going along with him. But there he was at her back, fully dressed in his own captivating outfit already.“Brian, are you sure this is a good idea? I don't want Cynthia to feel bad. What if she only planned the dinner for one?” She asked calmly.Seeing the conflicting emotions outwardly displayed in her facial expression, Brian drew closer and held her from behind. “You know how much I don't trust those people, right? Believe me, that woman's mind can conceive a great d

CHAPTER 75THE DOCTOR'S REPORT Upon returning from work, Grey met Cynthia lying on the couch, looking so dejected with a frown engulfing her face.Expecting that she'll rush and welcome him excitedly following what happened last night, he was surprised to see her looking rather grim, not even minding the gift bag he was holding.“Hey, is everything okay?” He asked after he instructed the maid to drop his suitcase in the room.“I'm fine,” she answered plainly with an uneven tone.“Are you sure, honey?” He asked again, feeling unsatisfied with her first response as his hands gently trailed her face, pulling back the tiny strands of hair on her forehead.Cynthia couldn't help but smile inwardly at how easy it was for her to get him worried about her, but she still maintained a plain look as if she was truly bothered.“Well, I got something for you,” he said and presented the gift bag to her.Unlike Cynthia, she took the bag and dropped it aside immediately, replying with a mere ‘thank y

CHAPTER 74THE VISIT OF KARMA “She's alive, Cynthia. What are we going to do?” Her mother's words sent a chill of conflicting emotions down her spine.Is Lila truly alive? How? When? Wasn't she involved in a fatal accident that claimed her life?“Besides, why the coincidence? First, an anonymous number threatened her with exposing Jannell's identity, and now her mother is filled with fear and suspense that Lila is alive?” Cynthia thought to herself.Silence fell in the room for a while. Cynthia still couldn't get why her mother was panicking if Lila were truly alive. She's done nothing to her, right? After all, her death was a result of an accident!After a while of debating in her heart, trying to figure out the reason behind her mother's uneasiness but couldn't get any answer, Cynthia was forced to ask, “But wait, mother; how did you know and come to the conclusion that she's alive, and even if it happens to be like that, why the great panicking?” She demanded coldly, peering in

CHAPTER 73SHE'S ALIVE.Watching some video clips on her phone, she saw a new message pop up on her screen.Instantly, she opened the message, hoping that it was from one of the clients she had been anticipating a reply from.“What nonsense!” Lila shouted. Her hands began to tremble.Is Cynthia doing this on purpose just to provoke her? Lila slouched to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of cold water to cool her fast-beating heart. She sneered as she looked at the multiple pictures Cynthia had sent to her.Fuck! That wasn't the result she was expecting. So that bitch and her husband still got along without a fight even after all the call snubbings and the pictures?She thought Grey and Cynthia were no longer a lovely couple, hoping that those pictures she asked Brian to take would facilitate the destruction of their family. But no, it seems like Grey was only trying to use and dump her while he goes back to his crazy wife afterwards. “That guy must be a jerk!” She cursed with bitterness
