THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y Chapter 32
Chapter 32 New Home“Do you think I care if your master is still alive or dead? Well, I'm sure he should be dead by now, but do you know what is unfortunate now is the fact that you are still alive? It would have been more perfect for you and him to join Lila in the eternal journey of no return; at least you can form a big family of four in heaven or hell,” ma'am Elena declared without any hint of concern over her husband's disappearance.“You know what? I only picked up your call because the number appeared without an identity on my phone screen, so be warned and stay clear of my life and my family!”“Do you know my only concern now is his will and nothing else?" She added hoarsely and hung up the call.“Old witch! It would never go well with you!” Aunt Kendy cursed inwardly and dropped the phone.She wished there was something she could do to help in the search for her master.Aunt Kendy sat down worried and devastated, feeling bad at how pitiable her master would look if he's stil

Chapter 33First day at work The echoing of those unbelievable words still left Aunt Kendy in shock.“W–what do you mean by what you just said, young miss?” Her face was expressionless as she asked.“I just said it now, that you're not seeing a ghost, Aunt Kendy; that's my father you're seeing in there. I know you might be surprised, but he just arrived today. Remember when I left for the supermarket earlier? I just went to pick him up at the airport and bring him down here,” Lila explained.“So you mean you're responsible for his disappearance all this while? You mean you were the ones that kidnapped him?”Aunt Kendy interrogated with a fixed gaze at Lila. Lila said nothing; she only nodded in response.In an instant, tears of joy welled up in Aunty Kendy's eyes as they began to flow uncontrollably while she embraced Lila in a warm hug.“I'm so proud of you! I knew that you don't have a wicked heart to keep grudges against your father,” she whispered into Lila's ears.“But, how wer

Chapter 34 COINCIDENCE As Lila hurtled towards the pavements to the ground floor, she stumbled upon Mr Damian Marley and a lady ascending the stairs. Lila greeted and halted her steps when she noticed that Mr. Damian wanted to talk further.“Oh, sorry, Lila. I never introduced my secretary to you. Meet Joan Morris, my secretary,” he said, gazing at the lady beside him with a smile.“Joan, meet Lila Sims, the new assistant to Mr Anthonio. She's now officially our assistant head of operations,” he explained.Lila tried to feign a smile but the other lady was resolute in her frown, ignoring Lila's hands as she stretched them for a handshake.“If only you knew that I'm doing this because of Mr Damian,” Lila mumbled inwardly but maintained a neutral expression.Mr Damian was bewildered by the actions they were putting up. He exchanged gazes at Lila and his secretary, the awkward expression on their faces could tell that something was wrong, but he couldn't place his hands on it. What was

Chapter 35“No way! I can never let them go free with these disastrous plans. For this, I'll be forced to avenge even my mother's death!” Lila said to herself as she lay on the big sofa in her room, going through the soft copy of some company's documents that needed her attention.She tried to focus but she couldn't. Her mind was still reflecting on the fact that Ma'am Elena would despise her family so much that they would want she and her father's deaths at all costs.She's struggling as much to grab some sleep so that she won't be dozing off at work, but the sleep was not coming.And that has been one of her biggest fears. Anytime she's working, she always tries to get enough rest to avoid wearing a dull face at work the next day.“Jeez! It's 7:00am already!” Lila exclaimed and stumbled out of the bed the moment she heard the knock on her door and decided to check out for time on her phone, which was situated on the bedside table.“Gosh! I just pray I don't start by receiving a quer

Chapter 36 Joan Again “Cheer up, Lila. Remember the promise you made to your unborn child? You can't let someone influence you to break it!” A voice in her whispered, and her strength and smiles were restored the moment she had a flashback of the promise.Lila had promised her unborn child since the day she learned of his conception that she would never allow him to see frustration no matter what.“Don't worry, baby, I'll shower you with all the love that you need to live and grow. I promise not to let anger and frustration near you,” were her words the first time she held the pregnancy test results in her hands. Never! She'll never allow her child to see her in an angry and depressed mood.She quietly moved to the restroom in the passage to wear her clothes in the proper way before she'd finally vacate the premises. “Here are your keys,” she said with a frown and flushed the keys on Mr. Anthonio's table before slamming the door behind her.Thinking of informing Mr. Damian, who ha

Chapter 37Joan's Hatred“What's so special about the paper that you wanted to keep it hidden, Lila? Com'on, even divorce papers are no longer kept hidden nowadays,” Joan goaded with a wicked smile.She stood and watched Lila's hand tremble as they stretched to present the paper to Mr. Damian. Although the content is known to her already.“What the hell is this? Termination of appointment! Who gave you this?” Mr. Damian exclaimed. His neutral expression was gradually turning fierce as he sat with annoyance and the chair creaked in protest. “Mr. Anthonio gave it to me, sir,” Lila responded with a stammering voice.Mr. Damian scoffed and paused for a while. “You're barely a month into the job! What must you have done to attract a sack letter?” He demanded with his brows knitted and nostrils widened.“I came late to work, sir. He said I don't deserve the work if I should start coming late at this early stage,” Lila explained in soft sobs within her mind.“So was that why you were leavi

Chapter 38 Strong Attachment In a nick of time, Joan had taken a few steps and was standing before Lila already. “How dare you call me ugly?" Joan yelled with her hands raised to land a slap on Lila's face. “You dare not try that!” Lila said coldly as soon as she blocked the hands from reaching her face. “I was only advising you, and you can try that and thank me later, you ugly bitch!” Lila remarked and flung her hands down. The fluorescent lights buzzed as Lila settled into her cubicle. The office looked a bit strange to her. She can't believe that Mr. Anthonio had ordered for some items to be moved from her office to his already. So that's how desperate he wanted her out of the establishment? She glanced at the clock pinned on the wall; she's got a lot of work to do that day, and time was not by her side. She wanted to start immediately but feels uncomfortable in her splattered clothes. She needs to be in clean clothes so that the environment can also smell nice for her. Sh

Chapter 39Caring for her bossLila walked towards the hospital route, pondering Aunt Kendy's words.But there were some elements of truth in what she was saying!If not, why is she so attached and concerned about him more than a normal boss and staff rapport?But even if she later falls in love with him and he feels the same towards her, what would she do with her pregnancy?Of course, no single man would want to marry a divorced and pregnant woman.She felt an utmost discouragement dawning on her for keeping the pregnancy, but a sharp voice scolded her instantly, “Remember, your child is your utmost priority!”“That's true. After all, my purpose of being in this town is to re-establish myself and my career, not to fall in love.” She consoled herself and distracted her thoughts with a different thing.“Daughter of the devil!” Joan glared and hissed at Lila the moment she stepped into the hospital ward.Lila feigned deafness to her statement and proceeded to stand beside Damian's bed.

CHAPTER 62SET IN OF KARMA “Call the IT department immediately. This has never happened, and it cannot happen now!” Grey instructed.Since the breaking of that news to him, his eyes darkened, and his brain got disoriented. Feigning concern, Cynthia's face assumed a perplexed look as she watched her husband drop his food and begin to pace back and forth in the room. “Honey, please talk to me. Maybe it's something I can help with,” she said with an intricate smile. “Grey! What is it? You can't keep us in suspense like this forever!” His mother asked impatiently. It has been long since she raised a voice at Grey like that, and she jerked him out of a pool of thoughts in silence. Nodding his head, he began, “The website, yeah, the website.”“What happened to the website? You still haven't said anything!” Margret insisted, her heart began to sink in fear, seeing how profusely Grey was sweating even under the fan.“I think the company website has been hacked,” he finally pulled himsel

CHAPTER 61THE ACCOUNT HAS BEEN HACKED. Cynthia couldn't believe what she just heard. How could Grey just blacklist her from all of Shun's establishments? What would now become of her? A poor housewife? Never! She can't sit and watch herself turn into a subject of ridicule by the people around her.“I have to do something and maintain my steez,” she said to herself.“Ho—honey, "I said, Shut up!” Grey cut her words mercilessly and pinned her in place with a dark and menacing gaze. Cynthia was inflamed, but she couldn't snuff out the anger she was feeling, because the anger in Grey's eyes looked like he'd dismember her if she dared to create a fuss. “Can we please meet up tonight? It's urgent.” She grabbed her phone as soon as they reached home and sent a text to Brian. Without hesitation, she sent him the address of the venue.“Why the urgent call? Aren't you supposed to be with your husband by now?” Brian demanded to see Cynthia. She couldn't voice a word but only threw an expre

CHAPTER 60BLACKLIST CYNTHIA Cynthia's feet got stuck on the spot for a few seconds. Everyone was beginning to wonder what could be wrong.She turned, hoping that it was Grey's voice and she'd see him waving at her to stop right there, but she realized it was only a whisper from her weird imaginations as she was only able to be met by his angry eyes glaring at her. His expression was deeply bathed in a dangerous frown that she can't predict the outcome if she fails to comply with the apology conditions.Right behind her, on her left-hand side, she sighted Brian, who winked at her and shook his head as their eyes met.She could read from his expression that he was not in support of her apologizing, but what would be her fate with Grey if she decided to go by what a total stranger wants? Besides, she has not accomplished her mission in the Shun’s family yet.“Miss Ricks, I'm sincerely sorry for what happened yesterday. Please find a place in your heart to forgive me,” Cynthia said a

CHAPTER 59APOLOGY WITH PRIDEHearing those words, old Mrs. Shun clenched her fist as soon as she ended the call. Breathing heavily like someone who had just escaped being killed, her countenance changed with her face growing darker with anger at every passing second, raising tension in the minds of all who were at the table, but no one dared to ask.“Mo–ther, is—” Grey tried to demand from her what could be the problem, but he instantly went mute the moment the resounding slap launched on Cynthia by his mother echoed in his ear, followed by the rattling sound of a falling chair.“Ahhh!” Cynthia let out a loud scream of pain, her palms married to her cheeks. Grey can't remember when he last saw his mother with such anger and frustration in her eyes.Old Mrs. Shun had tried all she could to restrain herself from slapping that bitch of a daughter-in-law, but she couldn't until she finally hit herEveryone's eyes widened and their brows raised in shock.“Better pray we fix this mess you

CHAPTER 58. THE REAL CULPRIT “Why not display the footage if she insists!” Some people in the background suggested in murmurs.Cynthia began to feel nervous; she tried everything possible to refute the idea of wasting their time to go through the CCTV, but it was futile. One after the other, the sharp ones who had been making videos with their phones slowly dropped them down, folding their arms as they anticipated the video.Cynthia felt dejected as she watched the security scroll through the footage. She knows that she'll be exposed once the video is made available.“Ahhhhhhh.” The crowd exclaimed with their mouths agape. Everyone's face changed as they watched how Cynthia slipped the watch into Lila's handbag when they walked past her.The crowd that was once throwing accusatory looks at Lila got stiffened, and they began throwing apologetic looks at her. Cynthia was so embarrassed that she couldn't stand the ramblings of the angry mob.She lowered her head and tried to secretl

You can never go free today, Lila! I must teach you a lesson you'll ever regret!” She thought to herself as her heart pumped faster than usua

CHAPTER 56THE SHOPPING MALLAs usual, they both drove home in different cars. From the moment Derrick claimed Lila to be his invited guest and decided to be overprotective of her, Grey didn't have a good expression. Every second of the smile Derrick shared with the woman was provocative, steering out every ounce of jealousy in him.Cynthia also was heartbroken. The one and only birthday she had ever taken out her time to organize turned out to be the worst party ever. She couldn't appear in the clothes a celebrant ought to have appeared in because of some malicious woman, who turned out to be the center of attraction instead of her.“I believe that you're not blind, Cynthia,” a husky voice retorted the moment she attempted moving up the stairs to her room.Cynthia retraced her steps. She actually saw the old woman seated on the couch, but because her day had been messed up, she decided to pass without any greetings.“Hmmmm,” Cynthia took a deep breath and growled, looking angrily a

CHAPTER 55 “Don't you have some little shame in you, Miss Ricks? Look how you're flaunting yourself on a married man in public." Cynthia rambled as soon as she got close to them and pushed Lila away from her husband's grip, which made her almost slip on the floor.Lila remained mute. She calmed herself down because she knew it would be pointless arguing with a demented woman.“Well, congratulations on your new achievement, Mr. & Mrs. Grey Shun. And to you, Mrs. Shun, I wish you a glamorous birthday. It's really nice meeting you, and I hope we meet again,” Lila said politely and sashayed back to her partner with her smiles, ignoring the bitter looks Cynthia was throwing at her.“I said it! I know Derrick can never be associated with any good person in this life!” She continued.“Enough! Cynthia, this is the last time I'll ever tolerate you talking ill of my brother again!” Grey yelled with a thunderous voice, which began to draw unwanted attention to their side. He had gotten enough

CHAPTER 54EXCHANGE OF PARTNERS Cynthia slowly dropped her hands, which were clenched to Grey's shoulders, with an absent-minded look on her face. “Are you okay? You look tired,” Grey observed with a bit of concern when he saw the mood swing in his wife immediately after his mother left.“What did she tell her?” He wondered.“Isn't this what you wanted? That I go dance with your good-for-nothing brother while you dance with your mistress?” You and your mother are so despicable, Grey!” She said hoarsely with teary red eyes and made an attempt to move.“Where do you think you're going?” Grey demanded while he held her wrist tightly, drawing her back with force.“Let go of my hands! You're hurting me!” Cynthia screamed, hitting his hand hard with a violent pull of her wrist out of his grip.“What are those two doing? Fighting in an event they planned?” Derrick, whose eyes had been glued to them since he noticed their silly dance steps, muttered loudly with a frown.“Well, that's what w
