The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 30. Kiss
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

KIMBERLY ~•~“Mommy, is Jackson my daddy or is it George?”I cocked my head to the side. “Your dad is Jackson, of course. Why are you asking?”“Then why do we visit George a lot? Why are we not going to Daddy’s house anymore?”I sucked on my teeth. I’d forgotten how curious Amelia could be. George and I had been dating for three weeks and we had only visited three times, this time being the fourth. Jackson, however, had gone back to New York. He had some meetings to attend and he went back a week ago. He was going to come back soon but he didn’t specify when.“Daddy is out for work. When he comes back, we’ll visit him.”“Okay, but why are we visiting George?”“Have you already forgotten that he’s mommy’s boss?”“But you kiss him and refuse to kiss Daddy.”Jesus Christ. This girl wasn’t giving me any breathing space today. We were already standing in front of George’s house. It was a quaint two-story building that his parents had left for him after they died. “Why don’t we talk about

KIMBERLY~•~“What the–“ I cut myself off as Amelia jumped on her father. “What are you doing here?” I asked, standing up to approach Jackson.George stood idly by the door, watching the exchange with a grim expression. I winced.“Mommy, you didn’t tell me daddy was coming today!” I let out a sigh, glaring hard at Jackson even if he pretended he couldn’t see me. “Jackson.” I gritted out.“I tried calling you and you weren’t answering. I thought something was wrong.”“So you stalked me all the way here?”“I didn’t stalk you.” He shrugged as he dropped Amelia to the ground. The little girl didn’t let go of him though. She held on to his thumb. I didn’t know why she was so obsessed with having a father. Their father-daughter bond was special and adorable to see, but Jackson kept interfering in my life because of it. “We exchanged locations because of Amelia, didn’t we?”My tongue poked the inside of my cheek at that reminder. I had forgotten about that little fact. Even George didn’t ha

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

JACKSON~•~I had work rivals. There were a lot of companies secretly competing with mine but I didn’t know anyone who would want to go the extra mile to sabotage me like this.Our products have been in use for years. It had been tested and verified and there had been no complaints about our skincare section so the fact that someone out there was claiming that it caused them cancer was saucy.Even worse, a news outlet quickly followed up with the information not bothering to verify its validity. They were playing with fire; the news outlet, the supposed dying man, and the other behind it.If they wanted to bring me down, they should at least use facts, they shouldn’t make up stuff that could be easily disproved.It was the first day of the new year and I was getting calls from everywhere. Almost every shareholder was trying to reach me at the same time. My father had told me to take care of it as soon as possible but how could I work effectively when everyone was blowing up my phone?
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 114. Mood
KIMBERLY~•~My mom didn’t want me to tell anyone, but Jackson wasn’t just anyone, was he? He was my husband and naturally, I was supposed to tell him about everything going on in my life.He pushed off the wall and approached me. “Cancer?” He asked again when I didn’t say anything, which made me wonder how long he had been listening in on me.“You were eavesdropping?” I accused.He shrugged, not feeling bad in the slightest. “If I didn’t, how would I know that your mom was sick and she’s taking it out on you?” Jackson questioned. “I thought we had agreed to trust each other?”“We did. I do trust you, Jackson.”He sat at the edge of the bed, close to me. “Then why can’t you still tell me anything? I’m your husband, baby. I’m supposed to share your worries.”I sighed. “It’s not like that at all. It’s just jot my secret to tell.”“But it’s your burden.”He was right. It was bothering me and I’d feel bad if he couldn’t open up to me about his burdens as well. “You’re right. I’m sorry. Ye

KIMBERLY~•~Things were beginning to look up for me.Asher had accepted me in his life. The scandal about my supposed nudes was dying down already. Well, a scandal about Chris dating two models at once was making its rounds on the internet so it took the limelight off of me.Chris had looked like a gentleman when we first met on the plane. I couldn’t believe that he was two-timing. Then again, it was the internet and everything could be taken out of context just for a story.Jackson had done his best to erase everything but some people had taken screenshots and even if I knew it was never going to be completely erased off the internet Jackson had vowed to legally deal with anyone who shared it. I was the lawyer in the couple but he was acting like one all the time.The only stress I had at the moment was my mother. I didn’t know if it made me a bad daughter but I was beginning to think she wasn’t sick and was just faking it because she kept using her sickness to manipulate me. If she

KIMBERLY~•~“Wake up wake up wake up, mommy! Santa came last night!”I shut my eyes even tighter and subconsciously moved away from the noise. “Mommyyyyyy!” Amelia started shaking me incessantly.I gritted my teeth as my eyes snapped open. Amelia wasn’t the only one present. Asher was also there and Jackson was grinning down at me.“Merry Christmas!” They chorused, agitating me even further.Jackson was a bastard. He didn’t let me sleep last night and we only got to sleep around two in the morning yet here he was, an accomplice to the little devil waking me up at seven in the morning. I held back a sigh and closed my eyes back.“Daddy says we need to have a good attitude during Christmas.” Amelia continued. “Or Santa will take back his presents.”Fuck Santa. Jackson and I spent days cracking our heads for the perfect presents for the kids yet all the credit was going to Santa.“Wake up, mommy! I want to open my stockings!”With a groan, I opened my eyes again and sat up. “I’m awake,
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 111. Worried
KIMBERLY~•~I was shocked to see that a new article had been uploaded and a lot of news outlets had run with the information. It was crazy. As soon as Jackson found out Emily was behind it, he reported her to the police. When did she have time to post a second article? Did she have an accomplice?When I traced the original article that contained my supposed nudes, I saw that it had been posted early this morning. Was it a timed post? She was even craftier than I thought. She didn’t care that she was getting arrested. She didn’t care that she would spend a longer time in jail after releasing those pictures. She didn’t care about anything but her revenge. It was crazy.As if I didn’t have a lot to worry about already, my parents were blowing up my phone with calls and texts. I knew opening their texts would annoy me but I did it anyway.[Mom: Kimberly, call me back right now!][Mom (2): what kind of pictures are those? Why did you take them? Don’t you have respect for yourself?][Mom (
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 110. Love
KIMBERLY~•~Everything was happening too fast. The messages were traced back to Emily, which made me understand why the blackmailer was so desperate for money. She had been cut off from her family and since she wasn’t working, she had gone broke and needed money as soon as possible.Jackson was quite shocked to find out it was her but he was relieved it was her and not some other person who had evil intentions towards me. He said it was a good enough reason to lock her up since there was no proof of her orchestrating his accident.On our way back to the city, Jackson contacted the police and forwarded the evidence he had to them. I had asked him if he wasn’t going to inform his parents first before taking action but he dismissed it and said he had to act fast before she released another article.It was late at night, but Jackson insisted we return to New York immediately after the wedding was over. It was only an hour's journey but the kids were already asleep.“You’ve endured a lot
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 109. Challenge
JACKSON~•~Someone was testing my fucking patience. I hadn’t been okay with Kimberly’s decision to forget about such a serious issue until after the wedding but I didn’t want to make a big deal about it since it was about her and it was her best friend’s wedding. It seemed like the blackmailer had other thoughts though.Without saying anything, I took the phone back from Kimberly and forwarded the message to my secretary as well as the number accompanied by a message of my own.[Me: take care of this as soon as possible]Thankfully, his reply came immediately.[Okay sir]“What did you do?” Kimberly questioned when she saw that I had pocketed my phone. “Don’t worry about it.” The topic easily got me worked up. The only reason the blackmailer was doing this for me but they were stupid enough to try and create a scandal with fake news. It could be proven wrong but once it was out there, some people were going to believe it no matter what. I didn’t want her reputation to be tainted with
The Billionaire’s Regret: My ex husband wants me 108. Blurred
KIMBERLY~•~Jackson and I agreed to take care of the blackmailer after Reiya’s wedding.However, I knew the person behind the screen wouldn’t take too well with getting ignored so I just told them to give me some time to get the money. After telling them I’d get back to them in a week, I put it at the back of my mind and focused on my best friend’s wedding.The days passed by in a blur and in no time, it was her big day. Amelia and Asher had arrived early in the morning. Caro said they were eager to come because they missed us. They were with their father though as I still had to be by Reiya’s side.“You look stunning babe,” I told Reiya when she started looking into the mirror too much. I could tell she was anxious but I couldn’t blame her. I was just as anxious on my wedding day and I wasn’t even getting married out of love.Then again, I think that made my anxiety even worse. I didn’t want to do something stupid and make him regret his choice to marry me.“You think?”“Come on Rei
