The Billionaire's Regret The Arrival
Damien sat in his room, his eyes pale as usual. It was his best friend’s wedding, but he couldn’t share his happiness. How could he when his world was dark? It had been that way since she left four years ago. After countless failed efforts at finding her, Damien finally gave up and became a shell of himself. He was barely living, only surviving. One thing he did very well was drown himself in his work. It was the only thing that kept him alive. He also focused on it with all his might with the hope that it would take his mind off her. It didn’t work, of course. He stayed away from any public gatherings and even avoided his own family. To him, it was a way of punishing himself for what he did to her. But Eric was his friend, and his feelings didn’t matter. It was a joyous occasion, and so he wasn’t going to ruin it for Eric. So, he would attend the wedding and share in his friend’s joy. “I can’t believe you’re finally settling down, man. Your wife is something.” Damien said

Damien thought his heart would explode as his hand touched her skin. He couldn’t believe that she was standing in front of him. After four whole years of looking for her, he was sure that she had escaped to another planet. But, she had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. “Harriet?” He breathed out, his heart pounding harshly against his chest as he looked into her eyes. “It is you. You are here. God, Harriet! How have you been?” He said with ragged breathing. “Where did you go, Harriet? I looked everywhere for you. Did you leave the country? Was that why I couldn’t find you?” He rapped, still holding her tightly. He was so excited to see her that he didn’t notice that she had been silent the entire time, only staring at him coldly. When she opened her mouth to speak, he could only focus on her voice, which he had missed for four years. “I’m sorry? Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to ask me these things, huh?” She said with a scoff, but Damien shook his head an

Harriet was sick of all these drama and the scene was tiring. All she wanted to leave. She had come here to wish for and support her friend, but she had become the center of attraction because of Damien. Harriet turned to Tony, who had followed her down to New York from Paris, and gave him a reassuring look. “Fine. Let’s talk.” She told Damien, and a soft sigh left his lips, his eyes softening. Damien led her out of the hall, leaving Evelyn with her mouth hanging open. As they walked to the balcony, Damien’s mind was racing with questions. He didn’t know what question to ask first. He wanted to apologize first, but he didn’t know how she would feel about him talking about that incident. What the man just said made him even more confused. Who was the man and why was he calling her the mother of his children? “Jesus, Harriet. Are you married? You… already have children with that man?” He didn’t know when the words let him. Even though they were not the right thing to start a

Damien couldn’t believe how much Harriett had changed in just four years. He didn’t know what to believe anymore. Hearing the little girl who looked just like him call the strange man ‘ daddy ’ made him tremble as he feared that Harriett had remarried and given birth. But, the years weren’t adding up so Harriett was definitely hiding the truth from him. He opened his mouth to speak when Evelyn snuck up from behind and linked her arms together with his. “I’ve been looking everywhere for you, my love.” She wore a pretentious smile on her face to make Harriett jealous, little did she know that Damien was getting pissed off by her act instead. She turned to Harriett, acting like she had only just noticed her presence. “Harriett. So good to see you. I’m so happy for you, you know. You have a husband and two beautiful children. It seems like you were in the wrong marriage after all.” She smiled. When Damien heard the word ‘ husband ’ he looked at Harriett’s finger to see if sh

Harriett was too busy with helping her children not make a mess of themselves that she didn’t see Damien walk to her table. It is only when she heard his voice that she realized that he was now standing before her.“We need to talk.” He said, ignoring the glare from Tony who was ready to pounce on him the second he tried touching Harriett.Harriett looked up at him and shook her head with a low sigh. “We have nothing to talk about.”“Do not make me create a scene, Harriett. Come with me while I am being nice.” Damien replied and Tony growled angrily from his seat and was about to give Damien a piece of his mind when Harriett reached out to him.“I’ll be fine. Take care of the them.” She said, referring to Addison and Adrian. She got up and let Damien lead the way as they both walked out of the hall. Immediately Evelyn saw this, she abandoned her wine and hurried after them to eavesdrop on their conversation. Damien led her to a secluded spot where he was sure it would be hard for Ton

The wedding finally came to an end and Harriett went back to her parent’s house with Tony. When she arrived, her mood was sour as she occasionally remembered her previous encounter with Damien.“How dare he come up to me when he is still with that woman.” Harriet grumbled, referring to Evelyn as she tucked her children to bed and retired to her room.While she laid on her bed, she tried forcing herself to sleep but it proved to be fruitless as she found her thoughts continuously drifting to her ex-husband. By the time she was finally able to sleep, it was already 12:45am.**“Su ji. Since it is Tony’s first time in New York after ten whole years, why don’t you show him around. I’m sure New York has changed a lot since the last time he was here.” Harriett’s mother suggested and Jake Edwards nodded in agreement.“Mum, please. It’s not like I’ve been here all along. You’re forgetting that I have been away for four years.” Harriett countered with a groan. “Oh, come on. Four years isn’t a

“This park was my favorite when I was younger. I remember crying because Dad refused bringing me here on my thirteenth birthday.” She laughed as they walked through a lively park. Tony joined her and laughed at her silliness. Throughout their outing, his eyes were glued to her face, watching as her eyes gleamed whenever she saw somewhere familiar. They had driven around the city and it was already 4pm and he could see that she was already getting worried that she had left her children for too long. So, he quickly placed a call to her mother.“Hey, Aunt.” He greeted and Harriett looked at him, wondering why he was calling her mother. “Are you with the twins? How are they?” He asked. Firstly because he genuinely cared about them and secondly because he wanted Harriett to relax and enjoy the outing.“Goodness, Tony. They are with Jake right now getting ice cream. How’s the date going?” She asked and Tony had to hurriedly reduce his phone’s volume when she got to the last part.

Harriett retouched her makeup in the restroom and took a deep breath, reminding herself that she had no business caring about who Damien was with. “I see you’re still not over Damien.” The overly familiar voice of Evelyn boomed through the walls and Harriett rolled her eyes as soon as she saw her standing by the door. Deciding to be the mature one, Harriett remained quiet and continued with her business. Evelyn clenched her fists and walked closer to her until she was sure Harriett could no longer ignore her. “Damien doesn’t love you, Harriett. He never did and he never will. I hope this sinks into your stupid brain.” Evelyn continued and Harriett couldn’t help the chuckle that escaped her lips as she put her lip gloss into her purse and turned her full attention to her. “Is that your insecurity speaking?” She smiled sweetly but her eyes were filled with terror. “You know so well that I have made no approach on Damien since I returned. Instead, he has been the one running after

As the party continued, Tony mingled with some of the people he was familiar with. He also made sure that Lily was by his side at all times.“Who is this beautiful lady, Tony?” Various people asked and he gave them the same response which still came as a shock to all of them.As the conversation with some of Tony’s business partners got more intense, Lily decided to leave them for a bit.“I’ll be in the restroom for a bit.” She whispered to Tony who gave a brief nod. His eyes followed her until she disappeared, making sure no one followed her into the restroom.As she walked, she couldn’t help but admire the hallway that led to the restroom. It had been decorated beautifully with flowers as though it was a part of the party hall.Mehdi might be a terrible person but he had good taste.She entered the restroom and to her relief, it was empty. She washed her hands for some relief and leaned on the wall, hoping to give Tony and his friends some time to finish up their conversation.A few

“She’s my girlfriend,” Tony announced with his arms wrapped around Lily and his expression stern. Lily’s eyes widened but she quickly composed herself as she didn’t want to be noticed by the reporters who were watching them like a hawk. After Tony’s big reveal, the reporters erupted into chaos and they began raining questions on Tony, each of them eager to know how and when he got a girlfriend because most of the people in the country were starting to think he was gay or just hated women. There was a time he was spotted in public with Daisy and photos started circulating online as people began to spread rumors about him having a child. They also went on the search for who the mystery woman might be and at that time, he was close friends with Harriet who already had two children and was always around him. So, to avoid getting her in trouble, he quickly denied the accusations and revealed that Daisy was his niece, bringing Rachael as proof. “How long have you known her for, Dr Martin

“Oliver? What the fuck does he want with you?” Tony asked, his expression hardening as he saw the texts on Lily’s phone.“Oh, it’s nothing. He’s just checking up on me since he didn’t see me at work. I have been helping him out at the hospital.” Lily explained innocently.“Can I see?” Tony asked and Lily freely handed him her phone for him to go through their texts.As Tony read through the messages, he realized that Oliver had been keeping tabs on Lily without her knowing. He used normal questions that wouldn’t look fishy to keep track of her activities and Lily who was as naive as a child kept giving him the information he needed.“What’s wrong?” Lily asked when she saw the angry look on Tony’s face. She wondered what he had seen on her phone that made him angry.“This Oliver guy. I have a feeling that there’s more to him. You need to be careful around him.” Tony warned and Lily frowned, taking her phone and pocketing it.“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of him, Tony.” Lily sighed. “We

Three Days Later.Lily rolled over to hit the snooze button on her phone as the alarm pierced through her sleep.“Five more minutes..” She hummed like a five-year-old.Just as she was about drifting off to sleep she suddenly remembered that she had to be at the hospital.“Shit!” She exclaimed and jumped off the bed. When she checked her phone, she saw that it was a few minutes past eight which meant that she had less than an hour to prepare for work.She quickly jumped into the shower and in a few minutes, she was out. Once she was all dressed up, she hurried downstairs to meet with Tony who was expected to be waiting for her.When she arrived at the living room, she found Tony sitting on a sofa with Rachael both laughing at a joke that was cracked by him.Sensing a presence behind, Tony turned and found Lily staring at them with curiosity written all over her face.“Good morning, Lily.” Tony greeted with a smile.“Morning, Tony. Morning, Rachael.” She greeted. “Why didn't you wake me

Lily sat at her desk, going through the files for the patients she would be sending handling. When she finished, she grabbed her tools and headed to the pediatric ward.As she walked into the brightly colored room, she spotted a little girl who didn’t look anything above six seated on her bed with a stuffed bunny clutched to her chest.She had a beanie on her head to cover her baldness as she had lost most of her hair to cancer but despite her frail frame and the IV connected to her arm, her eyes sparkled with warmth and happiness.“Good morning, my darling.” Lily greeted with a warm smile as she approached her bedside. “How are you feeling today?” Lily asked, checking her temperature.The girl looked up and smiled brightly, her eyes shining with excitement. “I am okay, Nurse Lily. They served me my favorite today! Chocolate pudding!!” She squealed and Lily chuckled.“You like chocolate pudding more than your medicines, don’t you?” Lily asked, touching her cheeks playfully.“Yes! I wa

“This is about Lily, isn’t it?” Rachael asked with her brows raised. “Yes, it is.” Tony agreed, taking his hands up. “You know how she feels about you not speaking to her right?” He asked and Rachael’s expression shifted to sadness. “I’ll be honest with you, Tony. I think I was too harsh on her. I have been feeling this way for a while but I do not know how to apologize to her. I fear I might have hurt her badly. She avoids me these days and I can see fear in her eyes whenever we meet.” Racheal lamented with a pained expression. Tony let out a sigh of relief and a light smile. He was glad that Rachael was thinking that way. “All you have to do is let her know that you are not upset with her and you want things to return to how they were.” He said. “The good part is, you have the opportunity to do that today.” He smiled. Before he heard her speak, he was going to tell her what Lily’s surprise was and plead with her not to make Lily feel bad but now, he planned on letting Lily do he

A smirk appeared on Tony’s face as he stared at the email from the office of Mehdi King. It seemed like God was on his side. The timing was perfect. Ever since he found out about him being the leader of the SNAKERS, he had wanted an opportunity to meet him and this had just been given to him on a platter of gold. He was going to take Lily as his plus one since it would be her first time attending an event with him by her side. To Tony, it was a way of announcing her to the world as his partner as well as preparing her for the life ahead. He quickly made his way upstairs and placed a light knock on Lily’s door. A few seconds later, she heard the door click and it opened to reveal Lily with a towel tied tightly around her chest. Her hair and some part of her body were slightly wet and he understood that she had just got out of the shower. Even though he had made a promise not to think of anything sexual around her, his eyes and body seemed to have a mind of their own. It was to

“She is all by herself, boss. This is the perfect time to take her. Give us the order and consider it done.” One of the men said into the phone with his eyes still glued to Lily as she headed back to the hospital on foot.A sigh was heard from the line, a sign of hesitation from Louis and one of the men concluded that Louis wouldn’t be able to give the order since Lily was his ex-girlfriend. So, he gave a sign to the man who was on the call with him, telling him to go ahead with the initial plan regardless of what Louis instructs.“What is your conclusion, boss?” The man asked, hoping Louis would go ahead with the plan but, there was still hesitation from him so, they decided to end the call and kidnap Lily before she was completely out of sight.They left their hiding place and began approaching Lily but just as they were about to get close to her, Tony came out of nowhere and wrapped his hands around her, oblivious to what was about to happen. The men immediately took a U-turn and r

“Also, the man she is with now is Tony Martinez, the owner of TM Hospital.”At the mention of Tony’s name, a frown appeared on Mehdi’s face as he visibly tensed up. “Tony Martinez?” He asked again to be sure Louis didn’t make a mistake.“Are you sure?”“Yes, Draco. I have seen him in person myself.” Louis replied and Mehdi gritted his teeth in anger.Tony was no stranger to him. He had received a lot of donations from Tony and had even given his donations to Tony’s hospital. He had exchanged pleasantries with him at various events, parties, and award ceremonies so, he knew that Tony was a patriotic citizen who frowned at corruption.If Louis’s girlfriend opens her mouth and reveals his secret to Tony, he is sure he and his gang will be done for.Draco let out a long sigh, his face hardening as he processed the information he had just received. “I know Tony Martinez alright. We’ve met a few times. Events, awards, parties… and I can tell you this, he is a fucking poster boy for patrioti
