THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y CHAPTER 24
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 27Evil Plan“Not at all,” she shrugged.“Like I've always said, I'm forever indebted to your mother for her kind gesture.” She added casually. But there was no hint of indebtedness in her tone. As even the smile she was wearing was evidently a forced one.“It's nothing, ma'am. She has to do that because you've given her the best daughter-in-law any woman could ever ask of.I'll be forever grateful as well,” Grey appreciated with a smile.“I'll be at the reception,” he added when Cynthia and Janell stepped in. He needed to give them some privacy as a family.“Cynthia, can you plead with your husband to give us Lila's address? I don't mind going there by myself to get her to come see your dad; he has been demanding to see her since he woke up." Elena said with much worry in her tone.“Mum, don't tell me that you'd stoop so low to beg that witch just for the sake of dad!” Cynthia scoffed.“Cynthia, you and I know that we have to find something that would make her look bad before

Chapter 28 THE AIRPORT Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome on board. Flight reference MB3R2H.This is Captain James Toner speaking, and I have some information about our flight. Our flight time today will be 10:00am UTC+8, and our estimated time of arrival in the United States is 11:00 pm UTC+8.We ask that you please fasten your seatbelts at this time and secure all baggage underneath your seats or in the overhead compartments.We also ask that your seats and table treys are in the upright position for takeoff.“Hello boss, we're at the airport now, and they just finished making the preflight announcement.” One of the men put Mrs. Elena on call.“Find her! You just have to do everything possible to make sure she doesn't escape! Or you better don't come back alive!” Mrs Elena threatened.Since she left the hospital, she had stayed hidden, sending some thugs to go after Lila, which was her main reason for insisting that Cynthia shouldn't go by herself.The men paraded the ai

Chapter 29 NEW ENVIRONMENT “We can't probably go back to report this kind of news to boss Elena. We need to find a way out!” One of the thugs suggested after they've left without accomplishing their mission.They've been working for Elena for long. They know how cold-hearted she can be when one fails at executing a task she gives.“Then let's fake her death! That's the only way we can ward off her punishment,” the other suggested.Mrs. Elena had returned to the hospital to check on her husband, with hope that her accomplices were doing a great job out there.“Mum, why didn't you come back with Lila? Cynthia demanded, feigning concern.“I ran out of patience in waiting for her,” Mrs. Elena responded coldly.“But, mum, I...”“Enough! Cynthia. Hearing that name over and over again makes me sick!” She yelled with a frown.“I've done my own part; whether she comes or not, right now I don't care if your father just dies!” She declared sternly, her voice devoid of any emotions.“Excuse me,

Chapter 30Lila took a deep breath and squinted. Finally, this day has arrived. A day where she can dress and appear the way she wants. She lifted her eyes and looked at the tall building before her, admiring every feature of it. For the past three years, she had ceased to appear like the way she did today.“I know today will not be the last, but I'll be coming here every day.” She assured herself and navigated her steps to the HR office.“Miss Lila, based on your CV, it shows that you've worked as a journalist for a long time before you stopped. And I seem not to have found any working experience after that. So, why do you suddenly want to go back to the career that you've long abandoned?”The interviewer remarked, exchanging gazes between the woman seated in front of him and the CV he was holding.Lila remained quiet after giving him convincing reasons why she quit her previous job, trying by all means to conceal her crashed marriage as the reason for her resignation.While sitting,

Chapter 31Keeping Secrets Lila was seated in the dining room, enjoying some tea while talking on the phone. Her tone sounds like she’s making a confidential call.She spoke for long, while she kept monitoring to know if anyone was watching her, yet she didn't even notice that Aunt Kendy was stealing glances at her.Aunt Kendy could only guess that she was speaking with a man, but certainly not a friend nor a lover. The tone doesn't sound like one who is in love!To keep the confidentiality of her communication, Lila had put her phone on the lowest volume."Please make it snappy and be extra careful. I'll be at the airport, waiting for you,” she said in a low voice with a serious but calm look.“What is she up to? Oh, I just hope my angel has not gotten herself entangled in any criminal act because of the hardships of this life.” Aunt Kendy couldn't help but feel worried about Lila's nature of call.“Young Miss Lila,”Aunt Kendy interrupted.Lila growled at the moment she heard Aunt

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
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y CHAPTER 73: SHE'S ALIVE
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
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y CHAPTER 72: BACK HOME
CHAPTER 72BACK HOME The disappointment in Grey as he watched her sashay to the gate washed out immediately; she caught his eyes staring at her, and she decided to give him a flirtatious wink. After all that happened today, he was hopeful of a better experience on their next hangout.Definitely, he won't allow himself to be as stupid as today again.Even though his depression was slightly taken away, he was still feeling disgruntled that he couldn't take things to the next level. Sure, he's going for a private room the next time they plan for a hangout, because he won't let her get away just like she did today.“But, do you think that'll be enough for him?” Brian asked, smiling knowingly at Lila.“Of course, that should hold him for a while. My joy is that Cynthia would start dying of depression from now,” Lila answered as they both walked into her apartment.“I bet he was expecting more. But too bad, I ruined his plans with my call,” Brian said with a self satisfied smile. He had n

CHAPTER 71DINNER DATE 2She wanted to alert Grey of what she had just observed but later decided to keep it to herself. Besides, if it is Cynthia or any of her agents that is doing that, she has a good way of dealing with them.Grey smiled suggestively at her while he pulled the chair for her to sit. Without much waste of time, he signaled the waitress, and she showed up immediately to take their orders.After talking for a while as they ate and drank, Grey stirred up the main topic that had brought them to the dinner.“I'm sincerely sorry about everything that Cynthia did to you at the hospital. I mean, she should be happy that you saved my life and not the other way round,” Grey said apologetically, putting on a pitiful look.Lila sneered in her heart. To be honest, she was still mad at him for doing nothing when he saw Cynthia's violent reactions towards her. Sometimes, whenever she thinks of the incident, she regrets why she offered to save his life in the first place.“I don't
