THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 69. STRUCK IN THE CHEST
He continued looking at her with his cute puppy eyes. She shook her head immediately. "No, Liam. You have to do this immediately. If you can do it I am not going to bother you about anything again so please just do as I say. This is important," she said, and then he finally groaned before picking up his pencil and returning his focus to his book. "It's just so boring," he said, and then Ariana raised an eyebrow at him. "Boring huh? So what would be so interesting to you right now?" she asked, and his eyes lit up immediately. "Watching some cartoons, playing some games…" she scoffed and shook her head in her position. "Nah. I'm just going to have to cut you short right there. That is not something that can happen at this time, Liam," she said, and he frowned as he looked at her. "Why?"" Because it is already way past your bedtime and you are stretching and prolonging the time by taking time on this little assignment that I know you can do within a few minutes. Just speed it up an
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 70. VENTED HER FRUSTRATION
She continued to shake her hair, trying to strengthen her resolve and not give in to his silly childishness. But she was feeling frustrated and annoyed. "God, I can't help it," she thought to herself as she finally slapped her face with her palm. "Oh god damn it," she muttered and then looked up at him. "Liam," she called, and he stopped in his tracks. He slowly turned around to look at her with his puppy-dog eyes, and then she choked out, "Fine. I'll give you 30 minutes. Go and watch whatever you want to watch and then sleep immediately. I'm going to come to your room to check up on you. If you're still up by noon, you're not going to like what's going to happen to you."She said in a very sharp, commanding tone, but it seemed like he didn't care as he kept staring at her with excitement in his eyes. He nodded his head briskly and then smiled at her. "Yes. Sure. I promise you I'm going to sleep as early as possible, Mom. The episode is just 30 minutes anyway, so it's not going to tak
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 71. SPIED UPON BY YOU
He chuckled softly and shook his head. "Well. All that has been heard and I will attend to that as soon as I have settled the issue at hand. I will need you to open your door for me," he replied, and those words made her heart pump so hard in her chest it felt as though her chest was about to explode. "Shit." She turned her head briefly towards the sitting room and glanced at the entrance door. "Oh, don't tell me he is right there. I'm just going to hit myself," she thought as she glanced at the door with wide eyes. "Where are you?" she asked, and he chuckled. "I am right at the entrance to your apartment," he replied, and then her eyes went wide. "What do you want with me, Vincent?" she asked with frustration, feeling her eyes almost welling up with tears. She shook her head briefly. "God no. No. No fucking way. I don't want to encounter him again. What is he doing at my apartment and how did he locate where I live? How did he even get access through the security?" All these ques
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 72. I AM SO DONE
"I can assure you that I'm not spying on you, Ariana. I'm just trying to ensure that your domain is safe since I have observed that some group of people are presently after you for reasons unknown to me," he said.Ariana scoffed as she shook her head. "You know I'm disappointed in you," she replied, and he looked at her with a shocked expression. "To think that you would just—you would stoop so low just to achieve your stupid vile schemes and get to me. This is just stupid, and I'm so indecent. Just give up on this. It does not even make sense at all. What sort of scheme is this? Give it up for heaven's sake. You have gotten what you wanted. What more do you want? You have wrecked my life. You have made me useless and I have no worth or usefulness. The only thing keeping me going is my passion, which I am currently succeeding at. Why don't you just leave my life alone? Leave my life alone, please," she kept on saying, gradually losing control of her emotions as slight tears dripped do
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 73. DIDN'T LISTEN
ARIANA'S POVI finally gave up when I couldn't contain how weak I was and stepped back before finally slumping back against the longest sofa. I gripped my chest, panting hard, trying to catch my breath. I never expected this to happen. I took my actions too far. I mean, I was so furious, but what I am feeling right now is just extreme. I feel like I'm about to explode. I feel like I'm about to combust. I'm glad I did it anyway. I didn't give him any chance to do whatever he wanted to carry out. He seemed a little too suspicious, and there was no way I could believe him. How the hell would he just walk into my apartment with bodyguards and begin to tell me that he's trying to assess the entire place and make sure everything is safe? What the hell did he mean by that? I don't even want to think about it. I am so done and tired of him. Just like I have planned, my mind is made up, and I am never returning to his life. He's the worst piece of shit one can ever encounter, and I don't want
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 74. DID HE SEE LIAM?
ARIANA'S POVI sighed and continued to run after him. Why the living hell doesn't he listen for once? I stopped halfway through the staircase and then leaned against the handrail before slapping my palm against my face. "Oh, my goodness. What the hell am I going to do with him?" I was about to continue making my way toward his room when the front door swung open and slammed shut as though someone stepped in. "Ariana," I heard Clara's voice and my eyes went wide as a soft smile embraced my face. "Oh, my goodness. The joy I am feeling right now about my best friend's arrival. I couldn't contain it. " I thought, before slowly turning around to face Clara and then walking back down without caring if Liam had gone to sleep or not. "That's his business. If he doesn't go to sleep, I'm going to give him a very good caning tomorrow. And I fucking mean it." I then walked down quickly now, a little bit dizzy, and I headed into the sitting room to see Clara dropping a bundle of bags against t
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 75. JUST WANT TO RUN
ARIANA'S POV"Did he see Liam?""No. I don't think so. We were both in the sitting room but he sent his bodyguard to search around everywhere. And I'm not sure if any of them had seen him. " Her eyes went wide immediately."Let us just hope they haven't seen him. Because if they have, it is going to be a 2000 watts sort of disaster and you know it," she said and I nodded my head shortly. She then turned around and picked up her phone from the sofa. She typed into it briskly and after a few minutes, I watched her place the phone against her ear. She listened attentively and then I watched her shut her eyes and take a deep breath. "Hello Mr. Vincent," she began and my eyes went wide. "Say what? What is she doing? Why is she calling him? What is she trying to do?" I was about to open my mouth to say something but then she lifted her hands at me as she stopped me and instructed me to keep quiet. I frowned a little bit as I observed her intensely. "I wish I could read her mind I'll figur
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 76. MAKING ME FEEL ALIVE
ARIANA'S POVI chuckled and then looked at her for a short while as I bit my lip, thinking of a very quick way to escape this tricky situation right now. I have to do everything I can to wave her away from this topic. I can't keep talking about it. I have told her everything I want her to know but she is just so persistent on knowing exactly every single detail that happened. I then finally got off of my position and slowly walked up to her. I stood before her and placed my hands on her shoulders. 'You have to calm down Clara, okay? I am fine. He did nothing wrong to me. I have told you that I didn't allow him,' I said. She scoffed and shook her head. 'Why are you trying to twist the entire discussion right now? I am talking about what the hell made you expose yourself to Vincent. He must have done something to you to make you admit that. I know you are weak but for you to just blurt out your secrets in that way even after all the determination in you, he must have done something to

THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 150. Circumstances
Vincent's POV The sight before me gets straight into my nerves, making me feel unsettled. My breathing becomes so hoarse as if I am struggling to catch my breath. As if I have something stuck in my throat. But it is evidence that it is the fury that is already tearing through my body. God knows that if he as much as attempts to touch a single hair on that little boy's body, I am not going to spare even his bones. I shut my eyes and take a deep breath. Is at this point that I feel extremely powerless in ways that I never intended to feel. I can't let him do anything to that boy. The boy whom I just discovered a few days ago is my son. The son I have had for seven years without even knowing. This son I never grew up with. The son I never raised. All these endless, frustrating thoughts are making my anger increase exponentially deep down with me, but I'm struggling to keep my coal. Releasing my fury right now is not going to make every meeting get better. It's only going to mak
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 149. No Such Consequence
Vincent's POV I know that I shouldn't trust their judgment. These people who are with me right now, presently the most notorious criminals in the city, will have to present with the tactics they used to secure this attack. I will have to think wisely because whatever action I want to partake in. I cannot lose my guard and allow them to overpower me because of any stupidity of any sort. I continue to point the gun at the mafia who was previously holding me as he begins to lead me toward the place where they said my son had been kept. The man whom I had already suspected to be their boss was also leading the way ahead of him together with Fiona and another of his bodyguards who had been attempting to apprehend me all the while. The look Fiona is giving me let me know that she still has other tricks and tactics up her slave but I am not going to fall for it anymore. I am also going to show that I have my tricks stuck up in my sack of plans for all of them. They have no idea the e
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 148. Going To Regret That Decision
Vincent's POVBang!!!!!The very loud, powerful, vibrating sound of a gunshot echoes loudly in my ears, almost making my ear drums blackout as I immediately sit up on the ground, placing my hand against my ear. That was so freaking loud. It felt as if my eardrums were about to explode. Who the hell had to guts to do that? I manage to lift my head and look at my surroundings while still placing my hand against my ear as if it could reduce the pain I am feeling. The images around me are a little bit blurry, and this makes me squint my eyelids for a little while, trying to process what I am looking at. "Welcome back to the land of the living Mr Vincent." A voice speaks up, and after a few minutes, the images are now a little bit clearer directly in front of me. The first image I see makes me frown immediately as I raise an eyebrow with shock not believing what I am looking at right now. "Flora?" I find myself saying softly but then she just rolls her eyes and looks away while scof
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 147. Dangerous And Abnormal
Ariana's POV I feel like a needle has just been pierced into my ears. What the hell... I don't understand.I don't get it. I look at him with excessive shock in my eyes and then squeeze my eyelids, my brain trying to process what I just heard.I must be in some sort of dream, right? He must have noticed my expression because he chuckles and then shakes his head before gazing down at the ground."I know this must be so hard for you to process because, well, anyone listening to this will think it's a very, very dumb idea, but I can assure you that it's the best thing to do. I am the only one that has the capability of helping you right now, Ariana, and what you just have to do is give me what I want."I shake my head with frustration." Okay, so can I ask a question." I request and he gestures towards me as if offering me the podium. "Yes of course. The floor is yours. Ask away. What do you want to know?" " Why do you want me to marry you?""Because Ariana, at this point, my min
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 146. A Lot More Easier If You Marry Me
Ariana's POV I know he has assured me that everything is going to be fine and I should relax and not let it get to my head.But God I can't help it. I seriously can't. I am 100% impatient as I continue to pace back and forth in endless stances all over every section and every nook and cranny of the large sitting room while Clara remains seated on the sofa with her legs also trembling, looking at me with a worried expression on her face."You have to calm down, Ariana, okay? worrying yourself this much is not going to make the situation even better." She says, but then I turn my face to look at her and watch as she immediately shuts her mouth, gazing at the ground."I am sorry. I shouldn't have said that" she replies immediately, and I can tell she is feeling extreme guilt for actually losing Liam when he was directly under her watch. But the Lord knows I can't blame her. I wasn't expecting her to be so strong enough to overpower powerful-looking strong kidnappers like that.I just
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 145. Sort Of High Ranking Terrorists
Vincent's POV What I am doing right now is extremely stupid, but call me crazy; I cannot let this type of situation just pass me by; this is my son we are talking about, so I am going to follow this marker to the last drop and ensure that everything goes the way it should.I and the officers are precisely stepping into an unknown territory, with our eyes all around us, trying to observe the surroundings and figure out any potential threat that may come out from nowhere.As per the phone call Ariana received, and the information we were able to gather from tracing the call, this is where the location came from. And we are all scrutinizing every way deeply, trying to figure out any single slight suspicion that might give us what we are looking for.The police officers gave me a gun, just in case the threat we are about to meet is much more deadly than we can anticipate. I don't need to be taught how to use it, it is something I am quite familiar with and have been an expert with for a
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 144. We Will Kill Your Son
Ariana's POVHeavens know that I have never been in such heavy turmoil as the one I am right now. The confusion in my senses is extreme. I am not in my right senses as I scratch my fingers endlessly against my hair pacing about the sitting room with Clara following me every step I go to ensure that I don’t delve into the very deep pits of madness. Vincent is not around now, but well, I can’t blame him for not being here. He is just as troubled as I am. He had followed the officers with their investigation to make sure that things didn’t relent and they got to the bottom of this. I know he is going to do everything within his power to ensure that this goes well, even neglecting his own business, but, I can’t help a very strange dark feeling within me that tells me that this is only just the beginning, that this is just a tip of the iceberg and far worse things are about to come. I don’t understand and I don’t get it. Why are they doing this? Why? I keep thinking to myself as I gna
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 143. Who Could Be After Her?
Vincent’s POVThe confusion and the frustration in my mind is beyond what I can comprehend. I am now relaxed back in my office, rubbing my palm through my forehead with a lot of thoughts racing through my mind. Ariana.She is the only person I can think of right now. I had thought that this method of trying to rescue her from her problems would have gotten her to soften towards me. But if not anything, she has gotten worse. I don’t know, I was hoping that maybe her feelings would be rekindled by the extreme sex experience we’ve been having. But she keeps distancing herself away from me even more. I don’t get it. Is she now just sleeping with me to satisfy her sexual needs, or what? I rake my fingers through my hair with frustration and then slam my palms against my table. What the hell am I even doing? Why the hell can’t I just for once stop thinking about her? It is just so hard. And then, there is the thought of that Alex fellow, who seems like he is relentless and bent on ge
THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET 142. This Is A Joke
Ariana's POVWithin a few minutes, I am back home to see Clara pacing up and down in the living room, looking as though the entire world has descended upon her. I took a deep breath and shut the door quite loudly to grab her attention because it seemed like she didn't notice me stepping in. She jolts and almost loses her footing the moment she hears that as she looks at me, stepping in with wide eyes. Okay, her reaction right now is frightening me because I have never seen Clara look this frightened or paranoid to this extent in my life before. I chuckle and step into the living room, dropping my bag against the sofa. "Never you ever scare me like that," she says loudly and I raise an eyebrow at her." I'm sorry, I had to. You look like you were lost in the world for a while so I felt like bringing back your attention." I say and watch as she chuckles nervously as if... Okay, that laugh looked kind of forced. She didn't have the intention to laugh. Something is wrong with her.
