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.
The Billionaire's Regret 42. Unforgettable Memory
Leena's POV“Kelvin! Ashley!” I called out to them in desperation as I rushed into the water.The waves were pushing me back and it was hard to reach out to them. Ashley and Kelvin's little voice was screaming for help, their hands were in the air as the water swallowed them and brought them out.They were drowning and if I didn't get to them faster, they might lose consciousness and drown completely.“Leena, can you swim?” He grabbed my hand, his eyes filled with concern and fear.“I can. I can as long as I will save them.” I said with certainty.For some reason, he stayed away from the water like one who had phobia. I also didn't urge him to join me.“Please, be careful.” He said seriously, urging me with his eyes.“I will.” I said with a warm smile.I looked at the wave and the way the water was, it was obvious that I wouldn't be able to fight with the wave.There was only one way.A last look at helpless-looking James, I dived into the sea and swam seriously to reach for them.The
The Billionaire's Regret 43. Team Leena
James' POVAnd that was how our two little demons changed overnight.“What will you have for the morning?” I asked the kids calmly as they took their sit on the dining chairs.“Anything. Because of your busy schedule, we will have cereal.” Kelvin said and Ashley nodded in adjournment.“I thought you said cereals aren't good for breakfast?” Leena curled her lips, obviously teasing them as she strolled in.“Not anymore. Cereals are good for kids.” Ashley said while nodding her head.“Fine then.” She sighed.“I heard our final year result is out. I have to go and check for mine and also find out the date for our convocation.” She informed us calmly.“Congratulations auntie!” The children said cheerfully.“But, I thought you can check your results from home.” I asked her cryptically.“Online right? Well, the dean found out that some people bribe the CBT men and also hack the online site. So, it had been banned for the meantime. We have to manually check our results from now on.” She expla
The Billionaire's Regret 44. Barren Billionaire's Wife
Leena's POV“Let me see mine! Let me see mine!” From the administrative block down to the lecture hall way, noise and chatter from students filtered in the air as everyone was anxious to see their result.Excluding final year students, second year and third year student’s results were also updated so they were present to check their score which made the hallway tight and crowded.“What? F!” I heard a gasp from one of my course mates as I got closer to our result board.“Look who we have here. The billionaire's wife.” Lily rolled her eyes to me and everyone stopped checking their results and faced me.She always loves creating scenes.“Do you really have to come check your result as ordinary people like us do? I mean, your husband has all the right to bribe the school board in giving you a pass.” One of my course mates said curtly as she shrugged.“Too bad, my education life has nothing to do with my husband's wealth.” I said slyly as my brows fluttered, I also crossed my arms.Since t
The Billionaire's Regret 45. Missing Parts
James' POV“Uncle! Uncle! Wait for us.” Ashley and Kelvin ran after me as we walked to the garage in the city children's park.“Boss, did you…” Harry approached me, looking anxious and I stopped him with my hand in the air.“Yes, I saw it.” I said.“Send the kids to the mansion, I will be heading to the family house.” I instructed him seriously.“Boss, will you be fine alone?” Harry asked, looking worried.“Yes. I will be fine.” I assured him with a warm smile.“Alright kids.” I bent down, staring at their anxious eyes.“By now, your auntie is back home so you won't be lonely anymore.” I began and they listened to me without bombarding me with questions.“When you get home, be quiet and don't do anything to annoy your auntie, alright?” I asked them calmly and they nodded their heads.“Yes uncle.” They said in unison.“There is an emergency I have to attend to, so your Uncle Harry will send you back home.” I informed them.“Uncle, will you get us something sweet on your way back home?”
The Billionaire's Regret 46. Thousands of Enemies, No Suspect
Leena's POV“Both of you are getting me scared.” I shrugged, facing them as they stared at me with an expressionless facial expression.“Why do you say so, auntie?” Ashley asked calmly.I knew they had changed from their annoying attitude but their demeanor tonight was cold and somewhat unavoidable.“You left the house with my husband to have fun which means you must be hungry. Let me make something for you to eat.” I suggested warmly and they shook their heads.“Sister, we are not hungry.” They said in unison like children whom their parents had warned never to eat from a stranger.I swallowed hard, closing my eyes briefly.“Did something happen?” I asked cryptically, staring at them seriously.They exchanged knowing stares before facing me again.“We are like this because of what uncle said to us.” Ashley muttered sadly.“Why? What did he say?” I asked anxiously.Did he humiliate me in public and also made the children feel bad?This had added to the anger I had for him.“Uncle said
The Billionaire's Regret 47. Trapping the Culprits
James' POVI was moved to the VIP hospital room meant for Wellson’s family.“James! James!” I heard Leena's voice as soon as the room door slid open and she rushed in.“Le…” I trailed off when she hugged me tightly, burying her face on my chest.I assume she forgot I was a patient.“How are you feeling now?” She asked anxiously, staring into my eyes.Behind her were my father and stepfamily, Harry and the children.I scanned her face and noticed some red lines on them.“Who did this to you?” I questioned in annoyance.“This is not important. I was afraid and scared, what happened to you?” She rambled with words, looking concerned and I smirked.“I think I'm fine. Though the doctor said I can't be out of bed for the meantime. My leg almost got crippled.” I explained rashly to her and she sniffled, nodding her head.“Hubby, I told you he will be fine. You didn't have to leave the house.” Madam Charity's voice caused me to narrow my gaze to their direction.“You are right.” My father nod

“[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
