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

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

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

“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,

Lily stirred awake, her body feeling lighter than the previous day. She looked around the room and noticed that it was awfully quiet and Tony was nowhere to be found.She was sure he had slept next to her.“He might be downstairs.” She thought as she headed to the bathroom to get freshened up and ready for the day. She knew that there was no point in going to the hospital as Tony had made it abundantly clear the previous day that she would be staying away from the hospital for a while.She agreed with him. She wasn’t ready to relive the previous day.When she was done, she headed downstairs dressed in casual jean shorts and a black t-shirt to match.Entering the dining room, she was met with Rachael who had her utensils in hand but her mind was elsewhere.“Rachael?” Lily called out softly but it fell on deaf ears. She cleared her throat and called again, waving her hands before her face this time around.“Rachael…” This time around, Rachael blinked and looked up.“Oh, Lily.” She calle

Tony looked at Lily and sighed once again. She looked weak and tired. Her clothes had been stained and rumpled thanks to the floor Mehdi left her on.“She needs a bath.” Rachael pointed out as if reading his mind.“Hmm.” Tony nodded. “What do we do then? Wake her up? She looks really tired though.” He said in a calm voice, sounding exhausted himself.“I’ll be gentle with her. She needs a bath to help her sleep properly. If she goes to bed like this she’ll only wake up much later. You know Lily is a clean freak.” Rachael added when she saw that Tony didn’t want to wake Lily up because of how tired she looked.“I don’t know…” He sighed but Rachael touched his arm and smiled assuringly.“Don’t worry, Tony. I’ll be gentle with her and I’ll make she doesn’t hit her head on a“Alright then. I’ll take a shower myself and come back in an hour.” Tony said before leaving the room.Once he was out, Rachael tapped Lily lightly until she stirred in her sleep.

“We finally meet, Draco. I have been trying to catch you for years.” Rico said with a smirk as he pulled out his police ID and shoved it in Mehdi’s face. Rico was a detective who had been in charge of a few cases that related to the Snakers gang and each time he thought he was finally close to catching them, he was faced with a stumbling block even his superiors advised and warned him against going them. After several failed attempts at getting them, he realized that the problem was their leader. He understood that the gang leader was someone powerful which was why everyone in the police force, including the commander was scared to touch him. He knew if they really wanted to, they would have caught them a long time ago. It annoyed him to see that they were turning a blind eye to the killing and crisis the gang caused daily just because their leader was someone powerful. Just a few months ago, he also found out that they were involved in the massive human trafficking of young

“We are under attack, " the man screamed, and Mehdi’s eyes flew open as shock rippled through him. “What? Under attack? By who?” He asked his attention now on the frightened guard. “I don’t know who they are, boss, but it didn’t look like they belonged to a gang. They looked too sophisticated for that.” He answered. “What about the other men at the gate? How the fuck did they even get in?” Mehdi asked, his mind racing. He wasn’t sure if he was to leave the basement or run to safety. But then again, the basement was hidden so it would be safer to stay in there. “Secure the entrance and make sure I am safe.” He instructed the men in the room, and they nodded before taking off. Lily heard everything they said and understood they were under attack, which meant it could be a perfect time for her to escape. Her only worry was that Mehdi didn’t look like he would be leaving the basement soon and if that happened, no one would know she was in there, so, she decided that the only thin

Tony and the hired men discreetly followed Mehdi’s car until it entered a white mansion that was known to belong to Mehdi. It had been shown countless times on the news so everyone knew it was his. The mansion was as big as a small community with gigantic gates and tall walls. It had a state-of-the-art design and exuded wealth. In the mansion were armed guards stationed both in and out to secure the building as well as surveillance cameras scanning the ground. The mansion was built like a fortress, proof of Mehdi’s wealth and power. Tony surveyed the area, wondering why he was home so early. It was rare to see a man like Mehdi who was always busy actually spend time in his house. To make things worse, he didn’t have a wife and his parents lived in a different city. “Could he be hiding Lily here?” Tony wondered. It would make sense since no one would expect him to keep a hostage in his residence. It would be absurd to think that. But, Tony had a feeling. One of the hired men who

Tony sensed that Louis was being truthful. He knew that if he was indeed responsible for Lily’s kidnap, he wouldn’t deny it.“Fuck!” Tony hissed and punched the wall in front of him.“What the fuck did you do? Where did you keep her that she’d get kidnapped?” Louis asked, raging.Tony looked at the phone in his hand and ended the call. He had no use speaking to Louis if he wasn’t behind the kidnap.Tony looked around, searching for answers when a thought popped in.“If they weren’t sent by Louis but had the gang tattoo on their wrists, that means…..” His eyes widened as the realization dawned on him.“Fucking hell! Mehdi, you son of a bitch!”**After the call with Tony, Louis sat in his room, his mind racing as he struggled to process the news of Lily’s kidnap. He wondered who would have done that. For all he knew, he was the only one threatening her so who could this new person be?If she had been kidnapped, it would mean that she was out of his reach and he was not going to let th

“You?” Lily’s brows furrowed in confusion as she stared at the man standing before her. It was none other than Mehdi King.His gaze was sharp on her and he had a sinister smirk dancing on his lips, the type that made chills run down Lily’s spine. She stared at him in disbelief but her heart shook with fear. She knew what kind of man Mehdi was so she knew that he was not to be messed with.“Did you do this?” She asked with fear in her eyes and Mehdi chuckled, his laughter cold and unbothered.“Do what you exactly?” He asked, feigning ignorance.“Did you bring me here?” She asked and then looked around to see the men behind him. That was when she realized how foolish her question was.Of course, he kidnapped her.“Why have you brought me here?! What do you want from me?” She said in a low but audible tone and Mehdi walked up to her and squatted down to her level.“Come on, Lily. There’s no need to pretend.” He snickered and fear flashed across her face.“What…what are you talking about?

Tony arrived at the restaurant in less than an hour. The whole area was filled with panic but, not a single person was hurt. Tony looked around and realized that the scene looked too clean which meant that the thugs only came to get Lily. “The CCTV footage.” He said to Marcus who immediately nodded and went in search of the manager. Since Tony was well known in Paris, especially in a restaurant that was a few blocks away from his hospital, he was immediately granted access to the CCTV footage. Two minutes later, Marcus came back with the manager, a young French man with dark hair. He looked like he had run miles just to get to the main restaurant as he was sweaty and filled with panic but Tony knew that it was because of what had happened in his restaurant. “Mr Martinez…” He stuttered, shaking fearfully as he wondered why Tony was in his restaurant after such chaos. “The footage, now.” Tony requested. He didn’t have the time to explain to him as every minute he wasted could put Li

Tony glanced at his watch as the meeting with the investors came to a close. He had met most of them at Mehdi’s party and to his surprise, they attended the event just because they knew he'd be there. They had been trying to get in touch with him for a while but, since Tony was not just a businessman but also a doctor, he was always busy. The meeting had gone well and he had successfully acquired over two billion dollars from fifteen of them to add to his company. ‘Looks like attending Mehdi’s party wasn’t so bad after all.’ He thought. “Alright. I guess we can call it a day.” He said and stood up, satisfied with the outcome and they all clapped happily. “Thank you for your time. My assistant will be in touch with you to finalize the paperwork.” He said with a confident smile as he shook their hands. He was the first to leave the conference room as he had a major surgery to perform in thirty minutes so, he needed to get ready. As he exited the building, his thoughts drifted to Li
