THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y Chapter 40
Chapter 40Meeting Mr. Saviour As they made their way through the estate, their journey came to a halt in front of a 3-story building, which was remarkably outstanding in the estate because of its elegant features.“Welcome to my home, Lila,” Mr. Damian said with a smile.“Wow! This place looks really amazing,” Lila commented as they got into the well-furnished living room.She expected to see a maid or a servant step out to welcome them, but she saw none.Isn't this house too big for one person to live in?Besides, who does the cleaning and cooking for him? She thought inwardly while her gaze shifted from one angle to the other in admiration for the features on the wall.“Feel free and have your seat, Lila. I'll be with you in a short while,” Mr. Damian goes on to say before he leaves for one of the rooms on the ground floor.“Oh my God!” Lila exclaimed when she saw Mr. Damian ambled with a tray to her front.The aura in the room changed immediately by the savory of the dishes.“I k

Chapter 41“I'm alive because of you! Thank you, Mr. Saviour!” She exclaimed in whispers.In great exhilaration, Lila left her seat, and with her arms widely opened like a bird flying in the air, she gummed her body on Damian's in tight clasps.“Thank God you're alive! I'm sorry, I couldn't wait to see you recover,” Mr. Damian whispered, with his hands wrapped around her back and her head on his shoulders.The dim and calm blue light makes the environment extremely cozy for lovers.Lila heaved a sigh of relief, his arms offering her a comfort she had never felt in her entire life.Even her wedding night with Grey was not as enticing as this.Her heart melted; a feeling of problem-less life dawned on her.“I'm also alive because of you! Who knows, I might have passed out completely if you were not with me in the office. Thanks to Joan, right? For splashing the coffee on you,” he admitted jokingly.“Com'on, so you're now mocking me, right?” Lila chuckled as she slowly began to lose grip

Chapter 42Lila's heart throbbed and swelled up as the question rang in her head. Finally, a day she had earnestly prayed for never to come is here.She feigned dumb to his question and sat without saying anything, until Damian got prompted to ask a second time, “Miss Lila, why is your look on the wall so intense? You love the wall paper designs, I guess?" He said softly with a smirk.Immediately, Lila trembled and nodded as if taken unawares, “Yeah, the design. It looks really amazing, you know,” she remarked.Not until he asked the question, Lila didn't even notice the wallpaper design. What was in her mind was a different thing altogether.He stood and slouched to the fridge, which was at the right corner of the dining room, and brought out a bottle of champagne.“Alright,” he said, dropping the two glass cups on the stool while he gradually poured out the drink into them.“From now henceforth, I'm not only your boss at the office, nor are you only my staff, but we're friends! So l

Chapter 43Aunt Kendy felt pretty numb. Everything Lila had said seemed unnervingly ironic.“Kendy, you have to be careful of the kind of advice you offer to a person in this kind of situation. This is a critical moment in her life, and she's dependent on you now to make a good choice,” she scolded herself.Slowly and gradually, she took her hands from Lila's shoulders and moved to lean on the table, ensuring direct eye contact with Lila.“But did you tell him that you're married?” She demanded softly.“No, aunty. I had to feign having a light stomach ache, which was why he rushed me home.”“Hmmmm,” Aunt Kendy sighs.“I'll advise that you tell him the truth when next he confronts you about that again.”“Aunt Kendy! I can't do that!” Lila exclaimed.“Look, you have to do it, my dear. That's the only truth that can give you peace of mind. If he's meant for you, he'll stay, but if he's not, he'll definitely leave. Besides, you're not too sure if he's married or not, or maybe even divorce

CHAPTER 44Confessing the feelings Lila was quite puzzled at his words. This was a dream she least expected would ever come true.Indeed, when next they say destiny has a way of bringing people together, she wouldn't spare a moment to believe it wholeheartedly.“But,”“I know the conceptions in your mind,” Damian interrupted before Lila could even spell out what she intends to say.But Lila still looked puzzled. How can he say he knows her mind already when she was thinking beyond the ordinary?Damian locked his palms into hers. “I'll tell you all that you need to know, but just promise me one thing,” he said calmly.Lila's confusion became intense; this discussion is getting more serious than she thought.“Promise that you'll still love me even after telling you everything,” he said, peering at her.“Lila, there's no need for you to deny it. I know already that you love me.”She squinted; her mind throbbed at the severity of his demands. He's right, her love for him was obvious alr

Chapter 45Lila stared back at him; her heart was troubled; actually, no woman would want to be a widow at a young age, not even her.But considering the fact that God can change situations around, her fears diminished, and by the way, her love for him has outgrown words.“You're not going to make a widow out of any woman, Damian, not even me.”Damian peered at her suspiciously, trying to get a clearer meaning of what she's saying.“Fred not, Damian,” Lila said with a faint smile the moment she noticed the look on his face.“I'm not leaving you! What I mean is—" She paused and took a deep breath before she continued, “I'll love you till the end, and I want you to take away the fear of death, because you are not dying anytime soon,” she encouraged him, moving closer to let their bodies stick and lips meet in sync.“Oh, I'm sorry, I..." The door suddenly opened, and a voice stuttering words of apology echoed.Lila immediately pulled herself from the embrace, and Damian arranged his suit

CHAPTER 46His last will“I said it! I knew you were a shameless whore since the day you stepped your feet into this office! I pity you, prospective widow!” Joan sneered and spat as Lila passed through her office to get to her husband's office, Mr Damian.“You know what? At least mine is better. I'm legally married to him. But come to think of it, what do we call ladies like you who shamelessly indulge in illicit affairs with their bosses in the office, knowing fully well that those bosses can never marry them?” Lila stood and looked eyeball to eyeball before uttering those words.“How dare you!” Joan yelled angrily, lifting her hands to rain down a slap on Lila's face, but her hands got stuck up in the air as Lila prevented it from meeting her face.“Try it, and you'll see yourself walking out of this company in the next 10 minutes. Remember, your partner in crime would not be an exception to this,” Lila threatened and dropped her hands violently as she proceeded to her husband's off

CHAPTER 47Meeting With Brian Silence and confusion were welcomed in the atmosphere for a while. Barrister Joe and Aunt Kendy were totally naive of what was going on, while Brian and Lila, on the other hand, tried to conceal the reality of them knowing each other before now.“Yes, I mean, no,” Like answered counter actively.“His face just looks familiar because I've once seen him on social media before now,” she claimed.“Yeah, she's right. I can remember her following me on all my social media handles and would always give a thumbs up to our quality product advertisements,” Brian concluded and agreed with what she said.“Wow! That's good to hear. It shows that Mrs. Lila has been in love with the company since before she even married my client. With this, I believe you'll manage it well, as my late client has always wished it to be.” Barrister Joe agreed to their explanations and commented.Lila and Damian exchanged side glances and heaved a sigh of relief for successfully convincin

CHAPTER 68BEHIND BARS“Mother, did you report her to the authorities?” Cynthia asked; her tone was evident of fear as her voice trembled.Seeing the bitter gaze Amelia was throwing at them, she couldn't help but feel insecure for her life.“I swear, I never reported her to anyone. In fact, I don't even know those people!” Elena claimed, feigning innocence with fake tears clinging to her lashes.Amelia's vision began to turn blurry. Everything that had unfolded seemed like a dream to her.“Mrs. Margaret shun, not her mother? Then where the hell did that woman pick her from? She couldn't stop herself from wailing. To discover that her true identity is unknown to her at such an age was something she had never imagined could happen.She stood and watched in tears as her mother was bundled into the police van and taken away like a criminal.Grey's feet became rooted to the spot he was standing. Everything was happening too fast for him to understand.Not done battling with his daughter's

CHAPTER 67ARREST HER. “Security, throw this woman out of this house!” Margret shouted. And the two security guards at the gate rushed to grab Elena by the hand and did as they were ordered.“Are you crazy?” Cynthia yelled after slapping the first security who attempted to lay his hands on her mother.“I don't care who it is that instructed you, but the next time you lay your filthy hands on my mother, I'll make sure that I don't fail my promise of making you rot in jail! Idiot!” Cynthia threatened, forcing the men to let go of Elena's hands.“Mother, maybe you should repeat yourself in simpler terms. I'm sure they're all too dumb to pick sense out of your statement.” She added, sneering at Amelia and Margaret.“Enough of all this nonsense, you daughter of a bitch!” Margret cursed hoarsely.Expecting a cold reaction from Elena, everyone was shocked to see her burst into a brash laugh.“Did you just call me a bitch, Margret?” Elena retorted with a frown and her partly closed eyes.“Wel

CHAPTER 66BACK HOME “I need every detail of the patient in ward 6 before the end of the week. There's something off about that man,” Dr. Lawson instructed the lab scientist before he proceeded to Grey's ward for the morning ward round.“Mr. Grey Shun, you can go home now, but I'll keep you under observation for six months. That means you'll be coming for regular check ups once a week,” the doctor said after close observation of Grey for a few days after regaining his consciousness.“Thank you, doctor,” Grey mentioned and nodded with a smile.“Thank God your health is back to normal now. I think it's time for me to take my leave,” Lila mentioned and waved at Grey, smiling suggestively.The piercing eyes of Cynthia rolled between Grey and Lila. She wanted to see how Grey would react to her goodbye message, but Grey was not naive to Lila's hard-to-get character.“Thanks for everything, Miss Ricks,” Grey said casually after a few seconds of silence while he stared at her flirtatiously.

CHAPTER 65 “Mother, what do you mean by what you just said?” Cynthia demanded calmly.Amelia had her arms crossed on her chest in amazement.Margret glared at Elena, who was running her mouth, causing her to shudder involuntarily.Elena has never seen a woman with such a bitter look in life. Margaret's angry eyes looked as if they could swallow Elena whole if she dared to say anything.“Mother, I just asked you a question that needs an answer!” Cynthia yelled.“Hmmm. Are you talking to me?” Elena asked casually, pretending as if she were lost in some deep thoughts for long.“Of course, she's talking to you,” Amelia cut in.“Please, Mrs. Elena, what did you just say about my mother?” “Oh, y-your mother,” Elena stuttered and smiled suggestively.“I didn't say anything about your mother. If you heard anything, it's probably a slip of the tongue on my side,” Elena defended herself curtly.Lila smiled inwardly but masked her amusement with a stunned expression. She remembered when she ove

CHAPTER 64 A VISIT OF CHAOS“Trust me when I say that I'm not hurt. I know women like Cynthia can be crazy at times, but believe me, they're mostly harmless,” Lila said as she patted Derrick's shoulders with an assuring smile.“Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get some rest. Remember, I just finished donating some blood now,” she said politely and began to walk away.Derrick was not willing to let go of her hands, but she pulled it out by force.“L—Lila,” he called again as he watched her departing back.This time around, Lila was getting pissed off already by his actions. Why did he want to keep her there without any reasonable thing to say? She ignored his call and continued moving, but that didn't stop him from following her again.“Lila, please, let me walk you out and drive you home,” he suggested as soon as he walked up to her.“Besides, you're weak, and I can tell you need some assistance,” he added.“Thanks but no thanks, Derrick.

CHAPTER 63RISING COMPLICATIONS Lila sat on the couch, blowing the hot coffee she had made. Picking up the remote, she turned on the television to watch the morning program of her favorite channel.Scrolling through her phone while waiting for the television to finish processing, her fingers automatically clicked on the HOT NEWS that popped up on her phone.“Popular billionaire Grey Shun faints over his daughter's kidnapping at school!”She froze.Her eyes flinched and ears perked up when the television finally came on, and she heard the newscaster giving a report on the current happenings in the city.She stared triumphantly at the bold black caption at the bottom of the screen. “THE YOUNG MAGNATE, GREY SHUN, IS SAID TO HAVE FAINTED OVER THE REALIZATION OF HIS DAUGHTER'S KIDNAP,”What!Without hesitation, she scrolled through her phone contacts.“Hello, Derrick,” she said as soon as the person on the other end of the phone picked up.“Hello, Derrick, Are you there?

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
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y CHAPTER 61: THE ACCOUNT HAS BEEN HACKED
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
