The Billionaire's Regret 121. Be With You, Forever
Sean's POV “Mr. Sean, my dear son-in-law, I will leave you to take care of the plans.” We stood from the armchair.“Thank you very much, sir.” I shook his hand, looking more serious and modest than I would ever be.How could I mess up before my in-laws?“Sir? Go ahead and call me father from now on.” He said, filled with delight.“Sure, father.” I smiled and we burst into laughter.“Sean, are you going already?” Her mother stepped out of the kitchen.“Yeah, about to.” I raised a slight brow.“How about you stay for dinner and spend the night here?” She suggested, raising an anxious brow.“I can stay for dinner but can't stay over because I have to pick up the kids from school and also settle some engagements.” I declined politely.“But you…” And she is cut off by Leena's voice.“Babe, can we talk?” She asked anxiously, staring at me with a smile.I knew those smiles weren't genuine and her parents might take a hint if I rejected her.“Excuse me, Mother,” I said as I followed Leena to

Leena's POV“Who was on the phone with you?” He fired at me as soon as I stepped out of the balcony.All the minutes I spent there, he was patiently waiting for my return.“Where are the kids?” I tried to wave his question away.“I asked you a question, didn't I?” He seemed not to give up, urging me with his eyes.“You saw the caller, didn't you?” I asked, raising a brow.“I didn't.” I knew he lied.“It's James.” I spilled bluntly.Just like ice melting when they were exposed to sunlight, his facial expression changed drastically.“Why?” He blurted, absentmindedly.“I mean, why is he still contacting you?” He cleared his throat nervously.“Well, I still have his kids, you know.” I shrugged.“Besides we made a deal with him, have you forgotten?” She asked anxiously.“Video call with his children weekly or something?” He asked scornfully and I nodded.“He could contact me directly or my secretary. It doesn't have to be through you.” He said cryptically.“We didn't share those people's c

Leena's POVI paced around my office, staring at my phone and turning away from it.It had been a few days since Max, the managing director in DT Group promised to get back to me.I was worried and afraid if he had suspected me.No matter how my parents tried to assure me that all doubts had been cleared since Max went about to make some findings about our investment firm.The door pulled open after a creaking sound and I raised a brow.“Babe,” I called out to him as he walked to my table and placed a tray containing breakfast on it.“Here's your food.” He kept a long face.“Are you okay?” I asked warmly.“Yeah, I'm.” He said but at first glance, I knew he was lying.I walked closer to him and placed a hand on his forehead.My lips curled in confusion. “You don't have a fever,” I muttered.“But I told you I'm fine. Can you just eat and forget about me?” He half-yelled at me.I wasn't in a good mood, myself, to banter to let it out on him. I exhaled heavily.“Sure. Thanks.” I ended our

Sean's POV“I will explain everything to you,” I said boldly.I couldn't believe I wanted to do this but this was another way to ease my annoyance and also end the banters since I was tired of it.He needed to be out of the picture so we could leave freely and not have any pending transactions outside.“We are all ears.” Her father urged me with his voice.“Actually… I'm not Leena's first husband…” I began.“What?” Her parents were taken aback by my words.No doubt, for someone who didn't know us, they would assume we were one big family and that was true since we left no loop.“She married a man called Mr. James first before…” I began narrating everything to them while they listened with keen attention.At some point, I was annoyed and wanted to stop talking but I continued because one way or the other, I would have to embrace the truth.“So, this is all that has happened all these years.” Her father rubbed his chin.“For a man, Mr. Sean is quite understanding and loving.” Her mother

Leena's POV“How was your meeting with your parents?” He asked as soon as I entered the living room.“Fine but unexpected.” I roughly crashed on the armchair.“Unexpected?” He turned to me.“Yeah, my parents struck a deal with James,” I said rashly.“What deal is that?” He asked, raising an anxious brow.“Can we have this conversation while I eat? I'm so famished.” I sighed heavily and he smirked.“Sure, go ahead and find something to eat.” He said.“Where are my kids?” I asked with a loud voice as I walked over to the kitchen.“They are sleeping.” He also spoke loudly so I could hear him.“Did you happen to speak with them?” I asked him, coming back from the kitchen with a bowl of cereal.“Yes, I did. I read a midnight story to them before they went to bed.” He informed me calmly.“Oh, that's great.” I faced him. “You bond quickly with my children. What about me? How are you going to apologize to me?” I asked, raising an anxious brow.“You are the one to apologize to me since you ann

Leena's POVI anxiously paced back and forth in my room, my heart pounding in my chest. Today was the day my parents had planned to meet with Sean's parents, in order to discuss the official marriage between us.When I told Sean about it, he was super excited since he had been waiting for the time when both families would know each other and support our relationship.It was a big step, and I couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and nervousness.My parents have never been friends with his parents before so I was anxious as I didn't know how they would relate to each other. Sean and I had been together for years now, I had met with his parents and they loved me but this time, it was for his parents to familiarize with mine.As I adjusted my dress for what felt like the hundredth time, I heard a knock on her door. I turned around to see my mother standing there, a warm smile on her face."Leena, dear, it's time," My mother said gently."Your father and I are ready to leave. Are y

James' POV A sharp ringing on the doorbell caused me to jump out of bed as I hurried to the door.“Who the fuck is that?” I didn't know when these words escaped from my mouth as I was a little bit pissed.I opened the door and was stunned by the sight that welcomed me.He pushed me aside and ushered himself into the living room as I followed him.“Father?” I gasped in shock.“How… how did you know my location and when did you come here?” I fired at him anxiously, staring at him as he slowly sat on the armchair.“Do you think I never meant what I said?” He asked, raising a slight brow.“I don't understand you.” I paused. “Are you spying on me?” I asked.“Of course not. It's just that I have my eyes and ears in every corner of London and I know when to strike.” He said coldly.“So, why are you here?” I exhaled deeply, waiting for his response.“I heard that Leena's parents didn't only embarrass you, they left you with a humiliating choice, and in the end, you can never get my grandchil

Leena's POV “Hubby, you won't believe what just happened!!” I screamed as I came down from the stairs. “What happened?” He asked, staring at me anxiously. “It's Max from DT Group.” I began while he looked at me anxiously. “He called this morning to inform me about the success of our meeting yesterday. He also shared their business BVN with me and applied for a loan of $50 million.” I explained to him and he rubbed his chin, grinning mischievously. “It seems it's almost my turn to start putting in more heat.” He muttered. “Yeah, the more the investment and troubles they face, the more confused they become to run into collecting more loans at the risk of their company.” I nodded approvingly and he smiled. “That's good.” “Where's our boys and Jason?” I asked, raising an anxious brow. Since morning, I had been on a business call with Max, so I hadn't prepared breakfast or come down to know what was happening. “I think they are playing in the lounge.” He looked at me. “Is Veroni

“[BREAKING NEWS: Mr. and Mrs. Sean were the victims of an explosion around the isolated part of the city, the cause of the explosion is yet…]” Almost all the television, radios, and phones were announcing the same news. “How did this happen?” Leena's mother rushed into the emergency ward. “How come? How did something like this happen to both of them?” Leena's father asked anxiously as anxiety lingered in his eyes. “That shouldn't be our problem now.” Sean's father cried out. “What do you mean?” Leena's mother stared at him intently. “Only Sean's body was found at the explosion scene.” He paused. “Leena…. Leena…” He continued stuttering. “What are you implying?” Leena's father's lips started trembling. “Leena's body wasn't found.” Sean's mother spilled bluntly and the latter gasped in shock. It felt like they were electrocuted as they didn't speak or move for minutes. “Leena!!! How? Why?” Leena's mother wailed as she rambled with several questions. “We don't know. Sean barely

Leena's POV “Lawrence, I mean it when I said my children are under your care.” I began. “My parents and Sean's parents or someone else might come to make things difficult for you but as long as I'm not reachable, you've all the right to my children,” I said seriously. “You are confusing and serious, Leena. Is something going on?” He asked anxiously, raising a brow. “Everything is fine.” I placed a hand on his shoulder. “Thank you for everything. From beginning till the end, I truly appreciate it.” I said, forcing out a smile. “Thanks for trusting me.” He said courteously with a short bow. “Did you bring the car and prepare all that I told you to?” I asked him impatiently and he sighed. “I can't believe I did something like this.” He paused. “I trust you are sending this over to someone else, if not, I will blame myself forever if something happens to you.” He said sadly and I smirked. “I'm just trying to set things the way they were in the past. It's never your fault.” I assur
The Billionaire's Regret 138. Game Over
Leena's POV “Who are you?” And when he came out fully, I gave him a scornful look. “Who am I?” I smirked. “Has it gotten to the time when you can't recognize me?” I questioned him in disgust. “My apologies, I didn't see you clearly,” Harry said courteously. “Where is your boss? Where is James?” I fired at him anxiously. “He is not around at the moment.” He said, lowering his face to the ground and I knew he was lying. “I know that brat is in there. James! James! James!” I started banging at the gate again in anger. “Open this gate and let me in!” I barked at his face. “I'm sorry but I was asked not to open the gate for you.” He said randomly. “Harry, your boss is doing something evil! He is ruining my family. Will you still try to protect him till the end?” I asked him, raising a brow and he shook his head. “Please, leave Mrs. Sean.” He said coldly. “I can't believe you. All of you are evil. I won't let any of you go scout-free.” I cried bitterly. “Mrs. Sean, please leave n
The Billionaire's Regret 137. How Did We Get To This?
Leena's POV “James! James, you bastard! Come out here and atone for your sins!” I screamed while banging the gate. This had been going on for more than two hours yet he wasn't in sight. Was he ignoring me? He ruined Sean. He ruined my family and gave us sleepless nights. Why was he so wicked? “How did we get here?” I cried out with all my veins showing through my neck as I collapsed to the ground. As my eyes closed, old memories rushed through like adrenaline. I couldn't control or help it as I cried profusely. Sharp Flashback - “You're here.” He walked confidently to my corner and handed me a bunch of roses. I smiled. “Wow, thank you.” I gushed. “Come with me.” I took his hand as he walked me up to the round table. My eyes met with the plate on the table, a small cupcake was in the center and the chef designed a love shape around it. At the sides of the shape, there was a short note. “Be Mine Forever.” I was taken aback, flustered, and shocked. “James…’’ I trailed of
The Billionaire's Regret 136. Against All Odds
Leena's POV “Officer, I can't believe you fell for those words he stated. He is lying!” I couldn't control my emotions as I yelled at the police officer in anger. “What do you mean?” He scoffed. “I know the man I married. James would and will never have any twins!” I said seriously. “But he showed us evidence and everything. He also had an alibi that made it hard for us to point him as the victim.” He rashly explained to me. “Am I blind or something? How come for so many years when I was married to him, I never heard of or seen his so-called twin brother? Why are you falling for these lies? I mean, you can even ask around to know if this is true!” I rambled with words in annoyance, firing several questions at them. “We are sorry, Mrs. Sean. We have to follow this case slowly. Besides, he has good connections and I'm afraid of losing my job.” He said skeptically and I smirked. “What? So, you are trying to save your head rather than bringing justice to me? Where is my detective? W
The Billionaire's Regret 135. No More in Love
James' POV “I knew from the start that both of you are good-for-nothing pigs!” I yelled at their faces in anger as they buried their faces on the ground. “We… we are sorry boss.” They stuttered. “I warned you, didn't I? I told you not to insert bullets in the guns as we are only going to scare them!” I reminded them in disgust. “We are sorry boss but…” they trailed off when the door of the warehouse made a loud noise. My father approached us with a deep mischievous laugh. “I told them to do so.” He spilled bluntly and my jaw dropped. “What?” It was too hard to believe and the only way to protect my emotion was to act clueless. “I told them to pull the trigger if Leena or her so-called husband refused to hand over my grandchildren.” He informed me seriously and I scoffed in disbelief. “Father!” I cried out sadly as a big frown took residence on my face. “What?” He gave me a scornful look. “We can't afford to hurt anyone or play dirty.” I reminded him seriously. “This is my g
The Billionaire's Regret 134: Vengeance for Momma
Sean's POV “How is my daughter?”“How is he? What's going on?”Leena's parents rushed into the emergency ward, looking anxious and worried.“She…” I held my head with my palm, feeling devasted.“She is still in the operating room,” I informed them sadly.“Why? Isn't it taking too long?” Her mother panicked.“It is. It is but I can't barge in, can I?” I raised an anxious brow.“How did this happen? You were impatient over the phone so we didn't get the full details.” Her father's voice came up, staring at me.“We were at home, thinking about how to tighten our safety since I wasn't comfortable with the kidnap case.” I began.“I was shocked when I heard he had broken the mansion gate with his men.” I sighed heavily.“Everything happened so fast and it was only the sound of the gun that brought me back to earth,” I explained meticulously and they shook their heads in disbelief.“That brat has grown so bold!” Her mother gnashed her teeth.“He pushed my daughter to this state, does he thin
The Billionaire's Regret 133. An Unexpected Fight
Jane's POV“Father! Father!” I screamed in anger as I stormed into my father's office, holding a newspaper.I just received the worst news of my life and he was at fault.My father seemed to be busy as a brunette sat on his desk while they engaged in a steamy lustful affair.My eyes blazed in anger as I watched my father passionately kissing another lady who wasn't my mother and moaning, the lady's legs were wrapped around his waist.“Go get a room if you don't know what they call dignity!” I yelled at him in anger and they flinched.“Where are your manners? Can't you knock?” He quickly arranged his trousers and shirt as he took his seat.The brunette picked up her clothes lying on the floor and rushed out of his office.I turned my gaze back at my father.“Why should I knock? Does this place look like a hotel to you?” I questioned him in disgust.“Why are you here? You always like interrupting my peaceful moments!” He yelled at my face but I rolled my eyes.“You can screw all the wome

James' POV“Arghh!!!” I screamed at the top of my voice as I charged over the guards.“You bastard!” I grabbed the first one by his collar and punched him in anger.“I told you to fucking keep watch and make sure you don't escape! Are you deaf!” As I spoke, I grabbed the other one and pushed him to the ground.“We… we are sorry, boss.” They trembled on the floor.“How dare you! You should have been careful!” I was so enraged that their apology did nothing more than irritate me.“I paid you enough and fed you for these few days! You grew stupid because I failed to tame you!” I picked up hard wood on the floor and spanked them in anger.They winced in pain, falling to the ground.“You have less than one hour to atone for your sin, otherwise I can't assure you of keeping your life,” I informed them curtly before storming out of the warehouse.I was angry because this was the first task my father had given me since the time my mother died.He wanted to fight with me until I got what was mi
