The Billionaire's Regret Guilt
Harriet walked into her office at exactly 10am and, as expected, she got a lot of judgmental stares from some of the workers who interpreted her lateness as a privilege she got for being the chairman’s daughter. Harriet kept her shoulders straight and her chin up, and she walked through the lobby, making her way to the elevator. Just as the doors were about to close, a hand stopped it and, to her surprise, it was Alexa. Releasing a soft breath, Harriet prepared herself for what was to come.“Miss Edward! I see that you have finally decided to show up. For a moment, I thought you would be taking the day off despite staying away from the company for two weeks.” Alexa smiled pretentiously.“I didn’t expect you to worry about me so much, Alexa. I am really touched.” Harriet replied with a matching smile, keeping her head high. She was not going to look like a weakling before Alexa.“Believe me, Harriet, I wasn’t…”“Save it, Alexa. I don’t have the time to exchange words with you today. A

“I didn’t realize this earlier because I didn’t take my time to think and investigate but, Adrian Daniels was Bethany’s boyfriend ten years ago. My guess is that they are still working together.” Tony finished and looked back up at Harriet only to find her staring at him like he was a clown. “Did you hear a thing I said, Harriet?” He asked, wondering why it seemed like she didn’t hear him. A few seconds later, Harriet chuckled and shook her head, taking a sip from her glass of apple juice that was already on the table. “Do you have any evidence, Tony? You see, I totally understand that I have not been a good friend to you since I arrived in New York, which is why I can totally understand your pain. But, you should know that I wouldn’t just believe things like this without proper evidence.” She cleared her throat and straightened her posture. “As someone who was a victim of lies, I cannot do that to another person.” She finished. “I don’t care if you do not believe me, Harriet. I am

Adrian handed an envelope that was filled with cash to a muscular man who had a tattoo that filled his arm and ran up to his neck.“I don’t know, boss. She’s already in prison so it might be a little bit hard to get her out.” The strange man said, taking a puff from his cigarette. “Break into the prison or blow it down, I don’t care. She just needs to get out of there, It’s either that happens or I’m fucked!” He yelled, banging his hands on the steering wheel.The tattooed man who went by the name ‘ Drax ‘ shook his head in defeat. He knew that it would be impossible to get Evelyn out legally, since there was too much evidence against her.But, the last thing he wanted was to incur the wrath of his boss, Adrian. It was a good thing that she hadn’t been proven guilty by the court. Her date was still a week away, which meant that she was in a prison with less security.“Alright, boss. I’ll get her out.” He promised and adjusted his face-cap before walking out of the car. He headed bac
The Billionaire's Regret You don't need Damien!
When Damien returned to the breakfast table after his call, he noticed Harriet staring at him with a worried look. He knew that she was more worried now that Adrian’s true colors had come to light.“We need to talk.” She said a few minutes later, and he replied with a nod and returned his attention to the twins. After breakfast, they decided to watch a cartoon together. It was Harriet’s idea as she knew that the twins would fall asleep in no time. As expected, thirty minutes into the cartoon and the two were already fast asleep. Harriet and Damien carried the twins into one of the rooms that had been set up for them by Damien a few weeks after he found out that he had children.“You were on the phone with Kelvin, weren’t you?” Harriet asked as soon as they left the room, wrapping her arms around his waist.“How did you know?” He asked, pulling her closer as he placed a light kiss on her lips.“I just figured it out.” She shrugged and, suddenly, her shoulders slouched, and a sigh lef
The Billionaire's Regret The Confrontation
Evelyn leaned at the door of Adrian’s room, eavesdropping on his conversation. She was just passing by when she heard his voice from the room and realized that he was on a phone call. At first, she thought it was a normal business call and was about to walk away when she suddenly heard Harriet’s name. She immediately leaned in to hear what he was talking about with Harriet.Halfway in, she realized that she had been fooled by Adrian as he was obviously in love with Harriet. She had never suspected him before, as she thought that he genuinely loved her.Hearing him insult her while speaking to Harriet and practically beg her to come back to him made her blood boil.How dare he?!Balling her fists, Evelyn walked away without being seen. She had come to the conclusion that she could no longer trust Adrian.She was going to fight alone.Adrian, on the other hand, was looking for a way to get Damien out of the picture without looking like the enemy to Harriet. He knew that he was no saint,

Damien’s eyes fluttered open, and he was met by Eric staring directly at him. His eyes scanned the room, and he realized that he was still in Adrian’s penthouse.“Hey, hey, hey. Take it easy, man. You got hit badly.” Eric said, helping him get off the couch.Damien looked around and saw a few of the workers in the room along with Eric. “Where are they? What happened? … Argh!” A sharp pain shot through his head from the injury. He hoped that Evelyn and Adrian had either been arrested or were somewhere around.After he pulled the trigger, Evelyn’s scream was the last thing he heard before he lost consciousness. He had no idea who the bullet hit and if it was fatal or not.He couldn’t remember.“Help him up.” Eric instructed one of the ladies, who rushed to their side and helped Damien sit. There was a bandage wrapped around his head and the blood stains on the floor were being mopped.“Harriet informed me that you were meeting Adrian on your own. She explained everything to me and I rus

“Daddy?” Addison walked down the stairs with a stuffed bunny in her hand. There was a pout on her face as she walked slowly to him and made him hold her.“How’s my baby doing?” He asked, touching her cheeks playfully but, her attention was fixed on the bandage that was wrapped around his head.“Is Daddy hurt?” She asked, touching the thick material on his head.“Daddy isn’t hurt, my love.” Harriet replied, not wanting her daughter to worry.“I should be on my way. Iris must be so worried,” Eric said, and Harriet nodded, making a mental note to pay Eric’s wife a visit. She hadn’t seen her since the wedding, and she also thought it would be nice to make a female friend.She wasn’t a social butterfly and with Tony gone, she had no one except Damien. She definitely needed more friends.“Extend my greetings to her.” She said and Eric replied with a nod before turning to look at his friend.“Be careful, Buddy.” He said and Damien rolled his eyes.“Get going already.” He whined, shooing him
The Billionaire's Regret Disbelief
“Welcome, mother.” Harriet hugged Stacy as soon as she opened the door. She arrived at the house exactly one hour after the phone call. If it wasn't for the regular New York traffic, she would have been there earlier.“Hello, my dear. Is everything alright with you guys?” Stacy had no intentions of beating around the bush. She knew that something was wrong, and she was determined to find out.Harriet gave no reply, but she led her to the living room where Damien was waiting. Immediately Stacy saw him, a scream left her lips and she rushed to him, holding his head as she accessed the bandage on his head.“What happened to you?” She asked while trying to fight off the tears that were already brimming in her eyes.“We uhh…we have something to tell you, mother.” Harriet said and sat directly opposite them, rubbing her arms nervously.“You should. It is very obvious that something is wrong,” Stacy wiped her tears and turned to Harriet. “Who did this to my son?” She balled her fist in anger,

“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.

“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

“Martin is back, and he wants you at the hideout immediately. I think Drogo heard about the shootout you ordered.” Louis’s throat went dry, and he felt his heart jump out of his chest as he listened to the last part. He wasn’t as brave as he was when he ordered the shootout before getting confirmation from Martin, who was his superior. “H-how the fuck did that happen? Did anyone snitch?” He asked in an unstable voice. “No one needed to, man. It’s all over the news and everyone knows that you and Martin control this district. If Martin didn’t order the shootout, it means you did. It’s quite obvious.” The man over the phone replied. “Shit!” he exclaimed. “Come quickly. Drogo is angry.” The man said, and ended the call, leaving Louis to wallow in fear. He quickly put on his jacket, threw his phone into one of his pockets , grabbed his wallet and dashed out of his apartment. As he drove to the hideout, he searched his mind for a suitable lie that would get him out of the

“Stay with me tonight,” Lily whispered, clutching Tony’s arms like he would disappear if she let him go. “You want us to spend the night together. Are you sure about this?” Tony asked, a small smile making its way to his lips. Lily was always running from him and avoiding times like this, but here she was suggesting that they spend the night together. Lily’s eyes widened, and her cheeks reddened as she finally understood his words. “I didn’t mean it like that!” She gasped, letting go of his hands and shaking her head to get rid of the obscene thoughts. Seeing her flushed face, Tony laughed. “I was only teasing you, Lily. I know you didn’t mean it in that way.” He clarified, chuckling at her. He then brought his fingers to her face and caressed her cheek, his eyes holding sincerity. “That doesn’t mean it isn’t going to happen one day and believe me, Lily, that day is near.” He whispered as his thumb brushed her lip and Lily’s breath hitched, butterflies erupting in her bel

“I…I think I should head upstairs.” Lily said quietly, breaking the piercing silence. Tony immediately turned to her, wanting to reach out to her and hold her in his arms.“Wait!” Rachael called out before Lily stood up and grabbed her hand calmly. “You know I have nothing but love for you in my heart, right?” She asked, her eyes filled with a mix of sadness and frustration.Lily moved her lips to give a reply but no words came out.“I care about you just as much as Tony does,” Rachael said and shook her head, deciding to rephrase her sentence. “Okay, maybe not as much as Tony but I do care for you. I want you to be safe and I want you to be happy but, not at the expense of my brother’s life.” Rachael said with tears in her eyes.She wasn’t going to let her brother make a decision that could end his life as long as she was alive, even if it meant taking Lily out of his life. All she wanted was her brother’s safety.She had only known Lily for a few weeks after all. She wasn’t going t

Later that day, Lily and Tony finally clocked out of the hospital after what was the most stressful day for Lily since she resumed. Her emotions were on a rollercoaster and so were her hands and feet as she was assigned to a doctor to help with the massive inflow of critical patients.A large number of nurses and doctors were staying through the night to watch the patients but, Tony knew that Lily wasn’t in the right state of mind to have an all-nighter at the hospital so, he spoke to Dr. Lorey and had another nurse take her place.“She isn’t feeling well, Lorey, and the last thing I’d want is for her health to deteriorate. I am sorry that I’m doing this when the hospital needs all the hands it can get.” He apologized.“I understand, Tony. I saw her at the emergency ward and she looked like she would fall at any minute. I was going to tell you to take her home. I’m sure the others will understand.” Dr Lorey said with a warm smile and Tony thanked her before leaving to get Lily who was

“I have something to tell you!” They choruses at the same time, surprising each other. “You go first.” Tony decided to be a gentleman and hear what she had to say first but, Lily was too curious about his information to let things be. “No. Let me hear what you have to say first.” She countered, hoping to buy some time for herself. Shaking his head in refusal, Tony pressed. “You go first, Lily. Don’t worry, I won't chicken out.” He added with a reassuring smile. After a few seconds, Lily nodded and decided to go first. “I…” She started but was interrupted by Tony. “Wait! I don't think it's wise to do this here.” He said, looking around. “Come with me.” Tony grabbed her hand and led her to his office, ignoring the stares from some of the nurses. Lily didn’t care anymore about what others had to say or their judgmental stares, not when her life was in danger. She just wished that the nurses would pay more attention to their critical patients rather than prying into her and T

Unknown Number: [You have one week, Lily.]With shaky hands, Lily dropped her phone to the ground and clasped her hands around her mouth, stopping her screams from leaving the room. She didn’t need anyone to tell her who the sender was.There was only one person on the face of the earth who could threaten her in such a gruesome manner.Louis Moreau.Suddenly, all Lily could hear was the screams coming from the emergency ward which was filled with people who had been victims of the gang shooting and all she could think of was Louis’s text.“Did he do that just to send a warning to me?” She thought in a shaky breath and her heart hammered against her chest, almost as if it would explode.“Did so many people die just because of me? Am I responsible for these cries of agony?” Hot tears trickled down her cheeks as the realization dawned on her.Louis was willing to do anything to get her back even if it meant killing a hundred people.This made her realize that he could hurt Tony or even R

“Lily. She is the connection I have with them. Her ex-boyfriend is a member of the gang.” Tony revealed with a straight face, awaiting Dr Raph’s reply. A few seconds pass and nothing is heard from him but just as Tony opens his mouth to speak again, Dr Raph finally speaks up. “What?!” He yells, loud enough for anyone who is outside the office to hear. “What the fuck did you just say?” “Quiet down, Man. This is an office.” Tony scolded, shaking his head but Dr Raph was not having it. Not when he had just dropped a bomb that could affect him and the entire hospital if not handled properly. “Don’t fucking tell me to calm down, Tony. Don’t! How the fuck did you get involved with a girl like that?” The words left his mouth before he could caution himself. Tony immediately shot him a harsh glare and he immediately cleared his throat before rephrasing his sentence. “Don’t get me wrong, Tony. Lily is a nice and hardworking girl. I have seen that but, she was dating a gang member! Doesn’t
