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

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,

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

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

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

JACKSON~•~“Will Skye’s sister attend your party?” My ears perked up when I heard Asher questioning Amelia.“I don’t know,” Amelia responded. “Stop distracting me.”I held back a laugh at her frustration. She was trying on several dresses to see the one she was going to wear at her birthday party and she called us in to model the dresses for us.“Why didn’t you ask her?”“I want Skye at my party and I don’t care about her sister. Why didn’t you invite her to your party when you had one?”A blush crept up Asher’s face. “We weren’t friends then.” Whoever Skye’s sister was, I could tell that Asher had a crush on her, which was why he was bugging Amelia about it, meanwhile the poor girl just wanted her seven-year-old birthday to be perfect.“What’s Skye’s sister's name?”The two kids turned to me when they heard my question and Asher cleared his throat as though he was just realizing I was in the room with them. I wasn’t even surprised he was already having crushes. He was eleven years

KIMBERLY~•~I waited for only a few seconds before Jackson came in, pushing a trolley that contained only one plate. I arched an eyebrow at him and he chuckled. “We’ll start with appetizers first.” He explained and I took his word for it. He transferred the plate from the trolley to the table and stood beside me, waiting for me to open it.“Aren’t you eating?” I questioned, wondering why he was acting weird.“I will. I just want to know if you like it first.”I shook my head. He was so eager for compliments. Decoding to give him what he wanted, I removed the cover of the plate and my eyes widened immediately.I gasped and my hand flew to my mouth to stop myself from screaming. When I looked back at Jackson, he was already on one knee. I looked back at the plate in front of me. It was more of a dessert than an appetizer. It was a piece of chocolate cake and the words “Will you marry me?” were written on the plate using icing.I had suspected it could be a proposal but I waved it off
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 122. Surprise
KIMBERLY~•~For the first time in a million years, Jackson was taking me out on a date. It was an impromptu one at that and when I told him I didn’t have anything to wear, he told me we would visit the mall first. Apparently, he already had everything planned and all I had to do was show up.I kind of liked that. Caro was back so she could look after the kids and we were free to spend as much time as we could outside.“Mommy, where are you going?” Amelia whined when she came into my room and saw me putting on my make-up.“Nowhere, baby.” I knew if I told her I was going out with her father, she’d want to come too. She couldn’t just stay back and let me leave alone with her father. “But you have lipstick!”“I’m going to work.”She frowned, creases forming on her forehead. “But you already went to work in the morning. It’s not morning anymore.”I sighed. “It’s a special meeting, Amelia. Why don’t you go and play with your brother? I won’t take long.”“No.” She shook her head. “Asher i
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 121. Busy
JACKSON~•~We were getting ready to go to the store when I heard the doorbell rang. It was a Saturday and we weren’t expecting anyone.Most of the workers weren’t in the house so I went downstairs to get the door. Before I could get there, the doorbell rang again. With a sigh, I pulled open the door, surprised to see Mr and Mrs. Watson. What were Kimberly’s parents doing here? It wasn’t like they weren’t welcome to visit. It was just weird that they didn’t inform us before coming. “Good morning, sir, Ma’am.” I stepped aside to let them in. “Kimberly is taking a shower. She’ll be down soon.”They nodded. “Sorry for barging in on you guys.” Her father spoke while his wife stayed silent, staring at her feet like a child who had been scolded.“It’s fine. You’re family. Take a seat. I’ll get you something to drink.”“Water is fine.”I nodded and went into the kitchen to get two bottles of water and cups for them. After setting it in front of them, I went back upstairs to our bedroom just
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 120. Press conference
KIMBERLY~•~It was crazy how easy it was to win the people’s favor again. The same people who bashed and condemned you were always ready to start singing praises for you as soon as things turned around.They were so fucking hypocritical and even if it was a good thing, it annoyed me how easily the masses started defending Jackson’s company after stressing him for four whole days.Jackson’s visit to the prison hadn’t been fruitless. He had gotten substantial evidence from Emily. She had recorded a conversation between herself and Chris (I still couldn’t believe he orchestrated this whole thing by the way. Jackson had warned me about him but I ignored it even if I never spoke with him after that) and the tips she gave Jackson made their investigation smoother.They didn’t release any statements until they had a lot of evidence to back up their words which I commended them for. Jackson was smart as hell because an hour after his press conference ended, people were already defending his
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 119. Manipulative
JACKSON~•~I sat on a chair in a dimly lit room, waiting for the girl I grew up with as my sister.Sometimes, I felt bad for her that she was living in such a place; that she was locked up here, but then I’d remember the evil things she did just because she didn’t like Kimberly for me.It would have been slightly different if her actions were justified but Kimberly didn’t even do anything to her. Kimberly barely even retaliated or she would be in much worse trouble.After waiting for a few minutes, the door to the room finally opened and an officer led Emily in. She was still handcuffed, but luckily for her, they freed her of the handcuffs before leaving.I appraised her form. “You have gotten thinner.” Emily had always been obsessed with maintaining a thin form, going on several diets as many times as she could to make sure she stayed fit.“The food is ass in here.” She scoffed and sat down in front of me with a table diving us.“You wouldn’t be here if you didn’t make stupid decisi
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 118. Love you
JACKSON~•~After talking to the ‘sick old man’ the previous day, I was able to get in touch with one of the people who also testified against me. After threatening to make sure they lost everything they had, they finally confessed and said someone met them a day before to tell them to testify.From the description, I was able to pinpoint them at once. Christian Walsh’s secretary. However, I didn’t have proof just yet. Christian and I were business rivals but I never knew he would stoop as low as defaming my company.It was way too low.I didn’t know why he did it but I didn’t care to find out, I was working on tracking his secretary’s whereabouts, hoping to find footage of him meeting the witness.“He visited the hospital three days ago,” Jeffrey commented, reading from his phone most likely a text. “Maybe if we can get footage from inside the hospital, we can see him entering the guy’s room.”“That’s a good idea.” I nodded. “Also find a way to get the man’s hospital file. I want to
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 117. A lead
KIMBERLY~•~Jackson hadn’t been gone for two hours when another video of him started trending again.It was from the same man and he had started recording claiming he was going to show the world Jackson’s true colors. After that, Jackson stood up and got out of the room, along with his secretary trailing behind him.It didn’t show anything odd but the fact that Jackson left as soon as the man started recording made him look shady. I hated the fact that a lot of strangers on the internet were giving their opinions based on a ten-second video while they knew nothing about him in real life.I was worried as hell. He was under fire on the Internet and I couldn’t reach him or his secretary. I tried to engage the kids but I found my mind straying to Jackson every few minutes.When my phone rang, I scrambled for it only to find out that it wasn’t Jackson calling but it was just my mother. I sighed. I had already spoken to her this morning. What more did she want from me?Knowing that woman,
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 116. Cancer driven
JACKSON~•~I’d never been a patient man but there was a different degree of impatience running through my veins as Jeffrey drove us to the hospital the sick man was currently at. I’d managed to push it to the back of my mind during breakfast but as soon as the meal was over and Jeffrey knocked on my door, I dipped. I didn’t even have enough time to say bye to my family. Amelia was probably going to rant about how much I didn’t care about her but I could handle that later.Thankfully, the hospital wasn’t very far from my house.When we arrived, I didn’t wait for Jeffrey to properly park before I got out of the car and headed straight for the entrance. I just wanted to get my answers. I wanted to meet the bedridden, cancer-driven man that was trending online.The nurses at the reception noticed me immediately but I didn’t bother to stop even when I saw them secretly bringing out their phones to record me. Jeffrey had found out the ward he was staying in so I went there straight up.I d
