The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 28. Hurts
KIMBERLY~•~Amelia loved going to the park.She was only four but I could already tell she was an outdoor girl.“Mommy, can I have ice cream?” She asked, pointing to the ice cream truck. Her favorite part about the park was the ice cream truck that was always present. She asked for a new cone as soon as she finished the first one and if I wasn’t good at saying no, she’d be taking an unhealthy amount of sugar.Before I could respond, she pouted, giving me her regular puppy dog look. I pinched her cheeks, making her wince exaggeratedly. “You’re so adorable. Let’s go.”As I stood up from the bench and took her hand in mine, I came to an immediate stop. I had been the one to call him but somehow, I was still surprised to see Jackson walking toward us.He was donning a very casual outfit, but I was certain it cost thousands of dollars. Everything about Jackson was expensive. I would know.When I halted, Amelia looked up at me, confused. But then, she followed my gaze and when she saw Jack
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 29. Regret
JACKSON~•~I never thought the first day I’d be spending with my daughter would end with all of us in the hospital.It was crazy. One second, she was grinning happily on the swing. The next, she was on the ground, crying that her leg was hurting.I felt responsible. I had been the one to put her on the swing and that ended with her in pain.Arthur had dropped me off at the park but Kimberly had driven there. She gave me directions to the hospital and I drove as fast as I could while she stayed in the back seat with Amelia, trying to comfort her.Since none of us were professionals, we couldn’t determine exactly what was wrong. We couldn’t even touch her foot for fear of making it worse, but from the way she kept crying, I could tell it was bad.“Drive faster, Jack!” Kim yelled out from the back when Amelia started crying again.“Any faster than this, then we won’t be able to explain to the cops if we get pulled over. That will waste even more time.” I tried to explain gently. I knew

KIMBERLY~•~“We haven’t seen you for a while.” The receptionist said as I walked past.I smiled warmly. “The boss loves overworking me. What can I say?”“Good morning, Miss Watson.”“Morning Kim!”I responded to the greetings as I walked toward the elevator. I loved my job but sometimes going back to work after a break – short or not – was annoying. I hadn’t been to the office in three weeks yet I was already used to not being around.The elevator took me to my floor and the first place I went to was my boss’ office. I knocked twice, then pushed the door open.It was early in the morning yet he was already nose deep in huge files. “Missed me?” He looked up at the sound of my voice. “Thank God you’re back, Kimberly. I can’t deal with all these cases myself.”“Sure sure.” I drawled sarcastically. “Bury me with work as soon as I resume.”“It’s different this time, Kim,” George said as he stood up to approach me. He closed the door behind me and placed his hand on the small of my back,
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 31. Kiss II
KIMBERLY~•~I gasped and my body stayed frozen, not knowing what to do.George, on the other hand, took that opportunity to plunge his tongue into my mouth, kissing me even deeper.There was a knock on the door and it was immediately opened after that, causing George and I to spring apart. Emelda, George’s assistant, looked between us weirdly. I cleared my throat and moved away from him, putting enough distance between us. George licked his lips and stood up from the couch. “What brings you over?”I didn’t know how he managed to stay calm. We were almost caught. Hell, I had barely even processed the fact that George kissed me, not to talk of getting caught.“Uh…” she looked from him to me and back to him. “Just came to drop over some files.”“You can drop them on my desk.” He informed her, dismissing her with his hand.It was normal for me and George to be in the same office with the door closed. What was not normal was me acting guilty as fuck. Almost everyone in the office knew Ge
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 32. Suffocate
JACKSON~•~I didn’t know what gave me the courage to kiss Kimberly. It was most likely the alcohol, but as soon as I felt her lips against mine, I couldn’t help but deepen the kiss. I gently dropped my glass on the table and brought my hand to the nape of her neck, angling her head better so she could kiss me.It had been years since I tasted her lips. It felt foreign and familiar at the same time. I didn’t know why I ever left her when I craved her this much. Only after she left did I realize just how much I loved her but it was too late.When she kissed me back, I almost lost all my senses. Both of us were drunk and I knew there were going to be regrets when we woke up in the morning, but I couldn’t bring myself to stop. “Fuck, I’ve missed you so bad.” My voice was breathy and I could barely even hear myself. I was in a haze of lust and I couldn’t stop myself even if I tried.I bit down on her bottom lip and she gasped, allowing me entrance into her mouth. As the kiss deepened, I

KIMBERLY ~•~ “Mommy, mommy,” the incessant tapping on my shoulder drew me away from my peaceful slumber. “Mommy…” I groaned, turning away from the noise. It had been a while since I slept this well and I didn’t want it to end already. I knew work waited for me this morning but I was certain my boss wouldn’t mind it if I was a bit late. “Mommy!” The taps turned into shaking and soon, the covers were ripped away from my body. “Ahhh!” Amelia shrieked. “You’re naked, mommy!” Naked? I never slept naked. My eyes snapped open and I quickly brought up the covers, covering my naked body. Just before it was covered though, I caught sight of a faint red bruise, making my eyes widen as the events of last night came crashing down on me. “Fuck.” I cursed out loud. I wasn’t drunk yesterday. I had been well aware of my actions yet I didn’t stop it as Jackson carried me to bed. And Jackson, that asshole! Couldn’t he be reasonable for once and avoid sleeping with me? I was supposed to
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 34. Chemistry
JACKSON~•~It was obvious as hell that Kimberly regretted our night together.It had been a whole week since it happened and she hadn’t stepped foot in my temporary apartment. She made me go downstairs to pick Amelia up and also made me drop her off downstairs. She never even came out of her car.She avoided looking directly at me and shut down anything that could potentially lead to a long conversation between us. It was frustrating.My phone rang and I saw that it was Kimberly calling. I picked it up and brought it up to my ear, answering the call. “Yeah?”“I’m downstairs.” She announced and hung up immediately.I looked at the blank screen for a while and chuckled before closing my laptop and standing up. Normally, I would carry Amelia downstairs with me to give to her mother but this time, I didn’t.I found Amelia in her room; she had quickly turned the guest bedroom into her space, filling it up with several dolls and toys to keep her busy when I couldn’t play with her. “Daddy.”

KIMBERLY~•~I hated who I was around Jackson and I was going to keep saying it until I properly learned to resist him.All he had to do was speak in that husky seductive voice and I’d be dropping my pants for him.It was a good thing Amelia came when she did. Who knew what could have happened if not?No matter how much I tried to tell myself I didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore, I couldn’t deny the fact that he was good in bed. I was familiar with his love-making and I craved it. I craved it a lot, which was exactly why I had to stay away.I had been celibate for far too long and it was starting to fuck with my head. I didn’t want to mistake my sexual life for my love life and fall back into his arms. I had told him I had a partner, but I was lying. However, I did need a partner. Having someone to stay loyal to would make things better for me. I would have even more reason to stay away from my ex-husband.“Mommy, why are your cheeks so red?” Amelia asked as I carrie

The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 94. Emily
JACKSON~•~“Where is Emily?”Kimberly, who was in the process of taking a bite out of her burger, froze.I had been in the hospital for three days and my parents visited every day. Even Kimberly’s parents visited each day, but my sister was nowhere to be found. Sure she was an annoying little shit most of the time but I doubted she’d know I was in the hospital and not visit once.Kimberly’s reaction got me even more interested in finding out what was wrong. “Did something happen to her?” Alarm bells rang in my head. Even though I disliked her most of the time, I didn’t want to see anything bad happen to her. She was still my sister after all. “Was she in the car with me?”Kimberly was quick to shake her head. “No, she wasn’t in the car with you.” She assured me but I still had my doubts. “She’s fine.”“Then where is she?” I was getting discharged tomorrow and she still hadn’t shown up. A lot of things have changed since the last memory I had, which happened to be four years ago.Kim
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 93. My name
KIMBERLY~•~Jackson had lost four years of his memory but he was happy to see me. I didn’t know how to feel about that. It meant that when he told me he regretted divorcing me, he wasn’t bluffing. Now that his memory was fresh about things that happened five years ago, I was tempted to take advantage of it and ask him questions I never got to ask him before.He was clingy as hell. He didn’t let me out of his sight once for fear that I might not be real or that I might not come back after leaving. Even as he slept on the bed, he held on to my hand and anything I tried to unclasp our hands, he’d hold on tighter. It was almost endearing.The door was suddenly pushed open and everyone came in at once; Mr and Mrs. Clarke, Anderson, my parents, Reiya, Asher, and Amelia.I blinked in surprise. I had been expecting them, but I wasn’t expecting all of them at once.They all came to a stop in front of the bed and his mother narrowed her eyes on me. I frowned, wondering what I did wrong this t
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 92. Amnesia
JACKSON ~•~My head hurt badly. It felt like I was having the worst headache of my life. My head was pounding. I groaned as my eyes fluttered open, the brightness of the light shining harshly over my eyes. I closed them briefly and opened them again, this time able to adjust to the light.I frowned, wondering what the hell I was doing in a hospital and how I ended up here. I opened my mouth to speak but no words would come out. I took a deep breath, cleared my throat, and tried again. That was when I noticed a weight on my arm. Someone was sleeping on my arm and they had stirred when I cleared my throat. Slowly, I turned my head to the side, wondering if the woman resting on me was Paige.However, the dark contrast to her bright blonde hair told me otherwise, except she had dyed it in the few months we had parted ways. With as much strength as I could muster, I moved my left hand slightly and the wind was knocked out of my lungs when the woman raised her head.What the hell was Kimb
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 91. Hope
KIMBERLY~•~“Go home, take a bath, eat and rest.” My mother told me when she came to visit me in the hospital. I hadn’t eaten nor showered in twenty-four hours and I couldn’t even feel the effect. I was just too focused on Jackson that I was numb to every other thing happening around me.I shook my head. “I want to be here with him.”“Kimberly.” My mother called out sternly. “You have to be in a good condition to take care of him. He’s in a very fragile state and the smallest germ can hurt him even more.”I paused, considering that angle. She didn’t lie but I doubted I carried that much germs with me. I chewed on my bottom lip and looked at Jackson. He was still unconscious and wasn’t showing any signs of waking up yet. I didn’t want to leave but I guessed I had no choice.Letting out a breath, I stood up and my mother smiled at me. She had called me earlier to go back home and rest but I simply hung up on her which was why she came here personally.I turned to leave but paused. “You

KIMBERLY~•~“What is going on?” Mr. Clarke asked, bringing both our attention to him and his wife.His wife, on the other hand, looked appalled. “How dare you slap my daughter? Her brother is lying in a hospital bed and you dare to slap her??”At that moment, I didn’t give a fuck what they thought about me. Emily wasn’t just a spoiled brat. She was evil and thoughtless. She had gone too far and I would slap her again if I could.I laughed humorlessly. I hated that we were creating a scene right in front of Jackson’s hospital room but there was no helping it. “Go on, Emily. Tell them what you said to me.”Emily stayed quiet, holding her cheek.Since she wasn’t going to speak, I was going to do it for her. Thankfully, there were no passersby to spin a story on the situation. “She said she didn’t know Jackson would drive my car and it was supposed to be me and on that bed.” I spat out bitterly. Even if I didn’t want to explain my actions to her parents, they had to know exactly what the
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 89. Your fault
KIMBERLY~•~Even after surgery, Jackson still didn’t wake up. I was worried as hell and my eyes were red from crying. I knew accidents happened to any and everyone but I never imagined Jackson would be lying down on the hospital bed, unconscious.His surgery was successful. Well, successful in the sense that nothing went wrong during the process and he didn’t die. I stayed with him in the hospital all night, unable to sleep. By the next morning, everyone in New York knew about Jackson’s accident and I was getting so many calls at once.I had already informed his family of the accident and they would be arriving this morning. I had also received a call from Reiya and after answering her call, I put my phone on silent. People called a lot whenever there was bad news and it irritated me a lot.There was a knock on the door and the door opened to reveal the doctor. She smiled warmly at me. “Good morning, Mrs. Clarke. I’m here to check up on the patient. If you could please step out of th
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 88. Fatal blow
KIMBERLY~•~It had been an hour since Jackson left to go get tampons but he still wasn’t back. By now, the kids were dozing off while I was still up waiting for Jackson.When I called his number several times and he didn’t answer, I started to get worried. I was still on my period though, which was why I went upstairs to search through the closet to see if I had a menstrual cup. I didn’t like using them, but I had no choice.I tucked the kids in and went to the bathroom to do my business. When I was done, I started calling Jackson’s line again and it still wasn’t going.Fuck. We should have exchanged locations after getting back together.I was calling for the seventh time when Jackson finally answered the call. “Jackson! It’s taking a long while just to get tampons. Where are you?”“Is this Mrs. Clarke?” I heard a feminine voice ask and I could feel the hairs on my arms rise. “Yeah, who’s this?”“I’m a nurse at the city hospital.” My heart dropped at those words. “Mr. Clarke was in

JACKSON~•~Despite being six years older than my sister, I grew up with her after all and she hadn’t changed a bit, which was why I could tell that she was raging inside.I had thought that with time she was going to develop a brain and start acting like an adult. I thought she was going to be civil with Kimberly even if she didn’t like her but clearly, I was wishing for too much.I didn’t want a wedge between me and my family but she was too damn insufferable and it was pissing me off.She glared at me hard but I merely arched an eyebrow, waiting for her response. She had already ruined the mood at the beginning and she was making things even worse. I needed to shut her mouth with duct tape or something.My mom laughed awkwardly. “Don’t be rude to your sister, Jackson. She came here to celebrate Thanksgiving with you.”I chuckled humorlessly. This was exactly why she still behaved like a child. My mother was there to pardon her wrongdoings. In fact, she made her feel like she didn’t
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 86. Thanksgiving
KIMBERLY~•~Thanksgiving was my second favorite holiday. There was something about families gathering at a table to eat that made me feel at peace.For the past five years, I wasn’t able to celebrate Thanksgiving as I liked. It was always just me and Amelia. Reiya had to be with her family and George had to be with his, which was why this year excites me to the point that I offered to do the cooking for Thanksgiving. Of course, Caro was going to assist me.It wasn’t just our immediate family. My parents and Jackson’s parents were going to be here. I didn’t like the idea of Emily coming around but after Jackson made his father cut down her allowance, she had been pretty obedient. It was crazy that the only thing that made her behave was the hope of getting her allowance back. It was going to be dinner for nine people and I was more than excited about it.Caro and I spent the whole day cooking. Jackson offered to help but after I yelled at him more than three times for doing something
