Leena's POV“Miss. Leena, are you sure about your decision?” Attorney Lawrence asked me seriously.“Yes, I want this.” I nodded my head with certainty.“Relocating to London will only accumulate more tax and funds. Looking at your account, you have less than $15,000.” He complained sadly.“That's not a problem, I will pay up all my debt, Lawrence. I want you to secure a good apartment for me in London.” I urged him calmly.“Why are you leaving New York?” He asked me anxiously.“I can't hide anything from you, can I?” I smirked and I followed.“I will let you know.” I said and he agreed with a short nod.“Can the place be ready by tomorrow or next?” I asked, staring at him with curiosity lingering in my eyes.“You are in a hurry but I will put some pressure on my agent. That can be sorted out soon.” He assured me with a brief nod and I exhaled in relief.“I will also need you to put an eye on my brother in California. You will have to give me detailed information about his well being.”

We are no longer husband and wife.” I said seriously.“I'm just concern about you, Miss. Leena. What if he does harm to you?” He asked with a voice filled with concern.“I'm afraid he woildnt find me when the time comes.” I paused.“I'm no longer that weakling or naive young girl who will be fooled by his word. I will never give him a chance this time.” I spilled bluntly and he nodded his head affirmatively.“Good. I trust you and I'm proud of you.” He smiled.“About the stuff have your agent secured a good place?” I asked, raising an anxious brow.“Yes, a neighborhood with only two extra apartment. Your frienf will have isolation a little.” He said straightforward.“When will your friend travel to London?” He asked, raising a brow.“T

What happened yesterday?” I rambled with questions anxiously as my eyes wandered every corner in the room.Some strings were connected to my hand which hurt whenever I tried to move my hands.“Boss. Boss.” Harry rushed up to me.“Boss, please stay calm.” He said calmly, pulling me to the bed.“Stay calm? Go ahead and explain what happened to me.” I said arrogantly as I grumpily sat upright on the bed.“I also tried to reach you yesterday but couldn't. According to your dashcam, you left the street bar drunk and also tried reaching out to your ex-wife. Everything happened so fast but the next call I got was that you were in the hos

The Billionaire's Regret 62. Morning Fever
Leena's POV“I don't know if it's right to ask what you are doing here.” Hailey said calmly.“And I don't know if it's right to ask how you got here.” I said rhetorically, staring at her.There was a thick silence in the atmosphere when we suddenly burst into laughter.We took a break and went to the rooftop as that was the only quiet and calm place to me. We were holding the plastic cup of coffee.“When I told you I was coming to London, you didn't even act like one who is coming here too.” She shrugged.“Yeah, I didn't want everyone to know my location.” I smirked and she nodded her head.“That's understandable.” She paused.“But, why did you come here? I mean your husband is the heir of thousands of companies. Why did you leave New York to come somewhere like this?” She asked anxiously and I gulped the coffee before lifting my gaze.“We have divorced. I mean James and I.” I spilled bluntly.“Divorce?

What do you mean?” I was taken aback by his statement.“Do you think this is a plain country where transport fare is free? From your location to this place, is $250!” He informed me in annoyance.“$250? Really?” I scoffed in disbelief.If not for the time frame, I could walk down to the office but I was in a hurry. Why was a mature looking man trying to con me?“How far is it? In twenty minutes, I can walk down from my house to the office.” I explained to him rashly.“We are not discussing geography right now. Pay the complete money!” He barked at my face, and I tried to pull my hand away.“Blame yourself for working in a place like this and yet you can afford a simple bi

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.

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.

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

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

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

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
