The Billionaire's Regret 34. The Rejected Stone Becomes VIP
Leena's POVThe television displayed kiddies cartoon network, I went through stuff on my phone while Kelvin enjoyed the show.We have been waiting for James for more than three hours and it's already past ten.“Sister, will uncle James return today?” Kelvin broke the silence in the room as he looked at me slightly before taking a handful of popcorn.“I don't know, dear. I have dropped messages for him.” I faced him.“I guess he is on his way home.” I assured him with a warm smile.“Sure.” He continued watching the television, cheering his team and smiling happily.Meanwhile, I was currently chatting with Damon since he was online.“[Damon: So what are you saying?]”“[ME: You were right when you said it isn't right to cheat with a married woman.]”It took a while before his message came up and I was anxiously waiting for his response.“[Damon: And… what do you want?]”“[ME: I don't want to put you in a difficult situation and it isn't right to use you because my husband is treating me
The Billionaire's Regret 35. Captivating the Billionaire
Leena's POV“Mr. Edward.” I looked at him as he quickly rounded up with what he was doing and faced me.“I came to work today only to be welcomed by unpleasant news.” I said steadily, controlling my emotion and maintaining orderliness.“Unpleasant news? What happened?” He asked, also looking anxious and confused.“It's about Mr. Damon, my team leader.” I said shortly, trying to jog back his memory.“Oh? Damon. It's not my fault, Mrs. Leena, I'm sorry.” He said, admitting defeat.“Not your fault? How?” I curled my lips.“An order came from headquarters that we should fire Mr. Damon, I only did as I was asked.” He explained to me rashly in a polite tone.“From headquarters?” Everything was slowly matching but I couldn't understand why it was so.“Yes. Maybe you should ask your husband about this.” He added cautiously and I looked at him.“My husband?” Without pushing the conversation further, I walked out of his office like one whose world had come crumbling to the ground.This was some
The Billionaire's Regret 36. Surprise Visitor
Leena's POV“Mr. James, I didn't know you would come with your wife.” I heard one of his friends comment as we strolled into the glamorous hall with our arms locked.“I couldn't let her stay at home on her own. Don't you think it's best to bring her out often?” He smirked with a sly brow raised.“Well, this is a business party, you know.” One lady in the gathering commented, slim and pretty.No doubt she looked like a husband hawker.“Too bad because of my damaged reputation, I got married to a clingy woman. Things like this, she tends to join me all day.” He seemed to be better at lying than I thought and to make the story all appealing, I caressed his arm with a smile on my face.“Sure, I will let you enjoy your night.” He said, nodding his head as we walked away to another empty table.“Babe, can you stay on your own for a while?” He asked, facing me.I looked everywhere, and everyone was with their partners. If he left me alone, what could I possibly do?“Why? Is there a problem?”
The Billionaire's Regret 37. Daddy Overnight
James’ POV“Where is Leena?” I asked Harry as soon as I got to the table and noticed she was no longer there.“I just came in myself.” Harry said courteously, knowing he had failed in his duty.I was afraid because I didn't know if she had been abducted by my enemies or dragged away by some drunk bastard. I tried to hide my concern as I faced Harry.“Go ahead and check the basement, hallways and compound. I will check the restroom.” I instructed him seriously, he nodded with a short bow and left.I saw him.I knew she was with him but I pretended not to see them and walked away.Was something still cooking up between them?Why was he leaning on her and whispering things to her? Did they kiss?All these bothered me and I was thrown to the edge when I asked her and she lied to me.Was she trying to protect her lover?“Humpf! Why am I thinking too much?” I scolded myself inwardly as we unlocked the door to the living room.I knew I wouldn't sleep comfortably thus I decided to ask her wha
The Billionaire's Regret 38. Rule Number 1, I'm Not Your Mother
Leena's POV“You don't have to do this, you know.” I didn't know I would see him at work the following day.His dashing eyes and charming figure which I tried not to admire before it got the best of me.“I had to do it. That's the only way to soothe my conscience.” I said nervously.“So, what will you do now?” He asked calmly, tucking his hand into his trouser pocket.“I'm writing my last exams in two days and before the month runs out, my statement of result will be out. Getting another job will only be a matter of time, that's not a problem.” I assured him with a warm smile and he nodded, looking shy.“I'm glad that you didn't behave adamant in coming back. This is your position and you have to hold strong to it.” I convinced him and he smirked, patting my shoulder.“I don't know if I should be mad at you, happy that I met you or regret everything.” He muttered, staring into my eyes.There was a brief silence between us and we were brought out of our reverie by the honking sound of
The Billionaire's Regret 39. Mission Impossible
James’ POV As if planned, we sat roughly on the armchair, breathing heavily.“Stop breathing like I do, it's not like you went through the hell that I did.” She scoffed, rolling her eyes sarcastically and I smirked.“Hello? I also suffered a similar thing in the morning. Besides, my meeting venue kept on changing until I shunned them and returned home.” I explained to her rashly and I sighed.This was the umpteenth time she was exhaling.“Please when is Ashley leaving?” She asked after a brief pause.“I seriously have no idea.” I shook my head.It was obvious that she was as tired as I was towards tending to their children's wellbeing.“But…” she adjusted on the armchair and faced me.“Don't you think she is influencing Kelvin?” She asked, raising an anxious brow.“You think so too?” I curled my lips in astonishment.Would we ever be good parents to our child? Like, why were we complaining when this was the right thing to do.Well, it's not our fault. It was unpredictable.“Oh, you t
The Billionaire's Regret 40. Kids are Demons
Leena's POV“I don't think we can escape from their grasp.” I muttered to him as we entered the kitchen.He washed the vegetables like carrots, lettuce, tomato, cabbage, green beans, onions while I brought out the chopping board and knife.We wore the aprons while Kelvin and Ashley watched cartoons in the living room.We doubt if they wouldn't hear us as they are so sharp and alert.“If you hadn't made a sound, we would have been out of here by now.” He scoffed, looking annoyed as he washed the vegetables roughly.“So it's my fault now, huh?” I raised an annoying brow.“Do you have any idea that they ripped the sign post I asked Harry to paste around the wall? They wouldn't let anyone apply for the house maid position.” He complained.“We are doomed.” I sighed.“I can't let this continue happening.” He handed the carrot over to me and I began chopping it on the board.“When is Kelvin going back to school?”“When is your friend coming to pick up his child?”We asked almost at the same
The Billionaire's Regret 41. One Has To Go
James' POVWe arrived at the vacation house, very far away from the bustling area. The environment was filled with green grass, vast sea and nice humidity.“So, this is where we would have missed.” Ashley peaked through the window and grinned. Kelvin nodded his head in adjournment since he was focused on the console game he was playing.I curbed the car at the parking unit and we stepped down. The cool breeze flushed on our faces, it was so different from the breeze in the city. Maybe because the place looked green and reserved. It was a good location for a vacation house.No car horns, no loud chatters or whatnot.I scanned the environment as the children giggled and jumped in excitement, from afar, people would assume they were the sweetest humans.The ocean sit-out was somewhat isolated with few people, the sea had fewer people and another batch of people strolling around.Unlike how it was overhyped online, I didn't expect to see such a population. Rather, I was expecting a crowd.

“[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
The Billionaire's Regret 139. Big Destruction
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
The Billionaire's Regret 132: The Future
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
