The Billionaire's Regret 97. A Breather
Leena’s POVFor the past one hour, I had been pacing in my bedroom as my thoughts ran wild. Hailey wouldn’t have approached me if it wasn’t serious and I doubt if she was sent by Sean.The whole thing was suffocating me and I couldn’t point fingers at who was lying or saying the truth.If I continued this way, I didn’t know when I might collapse and leave this miserable world.The following morning, I grabbed my handbag and left the mansion, handing my children over to the caregivers team.They would only look out for them until I returned, nothing more.“I got your message.” Lawrence met me at the garage of the Supreme Court.“Can we go now?” I paused.“Of course, if you are not busy,” I added almost immediately and he smirked.“We already planned this so I shifted all my schedule.” As he spoke, we walked down to the car we would be using.It was neon black latest BMW car model, sparkling and sharp.“So, where are we visiting first?” He asked as we entered the car and the driver sta
The Billionaire's Regret 98. Surprise!!
Leena’s POVAfter Edward had dropped us in the vacation house, we strolled into the lobby as a steward approached us with a smile on her face.From the outside, it looked like a normal villa. Who would have thought after entering the lobby, that there was another dimension that led to the main fun area?“Good day, ma’am. It’s so good to have you here. I’m Stacy.” She introduced herself steadily.“Nice to meet you.”“Would you like to book a room for the night before we start exploring tomorrow morning?” She asked me courteously.“I already booked a room online before coming here. I’m Leena.” I said, reminding her and she almost gasped.“Oh! You are Miss. Leena. We thought you wouldn’t come since it was almost past twenty-four hours since you booked the flight.” She informed me politely.“It’s alright. I also didn’t know the trip would be so long.” I flashed her a smile and she nodded.“Alright. You booked a room with two extra beds for your kids.” She asked, raising a slight brow.“Ye
The Billionaire's Regret 99. Fate
Leena’s POV“Wh… what are you doing here?” I forgot about the ongoing mess and stared at the unexpected visitor in astonishment.“Is that the right question to ask right now?” He scorned me seriously.“Let her go if you don’t want to be in trouble.” He ignored me and said to Stacy who looked unbothered.“And who do you think you are to stop me?” Stacy asked curtly, crossing her arms.The whole calm and lovely steward that I knew went missing as I stared at her in surprise.“Do you know what happens to those who try to steal my belongings?” He questioned vividly, approaching her.“How is that my business? I’m taking this woman with me.” Stacy informed him in a cold tone.“Sean, be careful.” I didn’t know why I cared about him but at least, since he was protecting me, it was the least I could do.“Everything is being recorded. If you don’t want to be implicated, get lost before I lose my temper.” He spilled bluntly and Stacy’s jaw dropped as she staggered backward.“What… what? How come
The Billionaire's Regret 100. Romance
Leena's POVI couldn't take in everything that was happening at the same time.“So, what did you say again?” I asked, biting my lips.It wasn't like I didn't hear him at first but I was shocked.“We… we are dating, sis.” Kelvin spilled bluntly with an adorable smile on his face as he squeezed Ashley's hand on the table.“I know this is not the right question to ask but how did it happen?” I asked, controlling my emotions.“The last time I remembered, Ashley left the States when she was still five or so. All connections broke off.” I rambled with words nervously.“Umm… I became a transferred student into his university and that was how we met.” Ashley informed me shyly.“Wow.” I gasped.“Yeah, I couldn't believe I would meet her again. The short time we spent during childhood was fun.” Kelvin began.“We were both single and we decided to try it out,” Kelvin added confidently.I hadn't seen him so excited and relieved for a while.Like, he had seen his destination. That was the whole lo
The Billionaire's Regret 101. Wellson Grandchildren
James’ POV“I guess you are calling to inform me of good news?” I said as soon as I picked up the call.“My apologies, boss,” I already knew what he wanted to say but I held myself not to end the call because I was so annoyed.“What is it this time?” I exhaled heavily.“We tried our best to track Mrs. Leena down and also find her last location but it has been inevitable to find her current location.” He explained meticulously over the phone.“You know you could just say, you missed her rather than all these unnecessary explanations.” I shunned him in annoyance.“My apologies, boss. We will try again.” He said sadly.“If she is not active, maybe she really wants peace out of this mess. But then, what about her Lackey?” I asked anxiously.“Who are you talking about boss?” He questioned courteously.“Mr. Sean, where is he, and what is his current location?” I questioned him seriously.“I will have to check and get back to you, boss.” He informed me.“Sure. I will be waiting for your call
The Billionaire's Regret 102. A Wave
Leena's POVThere was a moment of silence in the atmosphere as we stared at each other on the bed without a word.“Leena…” He trailed off, trying to call me out of my daze.I cleared my throat nervously.“I… I will give you a second chance.” I spilled bluntly and immediately, his eyes glinted in excitement.“Really?” He asked anxiously.“Yes, but this time you have to let me know everything about you so I won't accept any rumor from another person.” I paused.“You have to open up to me from now on because that is the only way to build trust again,” I informed him calmly.“That's not a problem, babe.” He said, rubbing my chin with a small smile on his lips.“I will do whatever I can, whatever you also want to keep this union going.” He assured me confidently.“Okay.” I briefly closed my eyes.“Thanks again for giving me a second chance. I'm so happy.” He said with a sharp nod and I smirked.We fell shut again, staring at each other affectionately as our heads started moving.He made th
The Billionaire's Regret 103. A Partner
Leena's POV“Why are you in a hurry? We planned to leave tomorrow morning.” Sean followed me as we entered our hotel room.“There's something important now, babe. I have to leave.” I informed him seriously as I took our things out of the closet.“What is it this time?” He asked anxiously, grabbing my arm which forced me to stop with what I was doing.“It's my parents.” I spilled bluntly as I sat roughly on the bed.“Your parents?” His lips curled, staring at me in confusion.“Surprised, right?” I raised a brow and started arranging our clothes.“Yeah, I remembered you told me that your parents were late.” He said as he sat on the bed.“I don't have much memory about my past but what I do know is that I was adopted by the Martins family.” I paused.“And also, I got the news some years later that my real parents died in an accident and so on. It was hectic for my brother and I since the Martins didn't want to adopt him.” I explained to him meticulously.“I'm really sorry about your past
The Billionaire's Regret 104. Raging Hell
Leena's POVI cleared my throat, breaking the awkward silence as he faced me.“Umm… What game were you playing with our boys?” I asked him nervously and he smirked.“Is that what is important right now?” He asked scornfully and I shook my head.CJ and JC were sleeping in the back seat.“Sorry sir.” I rolled my eyes away from him.“I would have told you, my love but it's a secret between me and my boys.” He winked at me and I smirked.“Fine fine fine.” I brought out my phone from my bag and he exhaled heavily.“You will stay with the boys while I finish up with Attorney Lawrence,” I said rhetorically.“No, I must come with you.” He disagreed.“Babe.” I placed my hand on his. “We can't take the children to court because of this issue. They also need to rest.” I paused.“Then, promise me that you will be fine and call me if there's a problem.” He said, raising an anxious brow.“Sure, I will call you,” I assured him with a bright smile and he retaliated.“Where are they?” That was the sta

“[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

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

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?

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!
