The Billionaire's Regret A Shocking Revelation
Damien couldn’t stand the scene before him so, he decided to make his presence known. Hearing footsteps behind her, Harriet didn’t need any one to tell her who it was. She was home alone with Damien so, it had to be him. Worried that he might make a meaning out of their hug, she quickly broke the hug and turned to him. Tony who saw him before Harriett did, didn’t let go of her hand even as she pulled out. Instead, he threw Damien a hateful glare. “Long time no see, Damien.” He said with a lopsided grin, reaching out for a handshake but all Damien was focused on was his hand on his ex-wife’s arm. Harriett traced his eyes and saw that they were fixed on Tony’s hands. She immediately shrugged them off, careful not to seem rude and she moved away from Tony. Damien peeled his eyes away from Harriet and turned to Tony with a forced smile. “I didn’t see you around for a while. I was beginning to think you had decided to finally return to your home.” He said, making it obvious that he want
The Billionaire's Regret An enemy within
When Adrian walked into the house, everyone had already returned to their rooms and were waiting for dinner. “Did Dad step out?” Calling one of the maids, he asked as he had noticed that the car was still packed in front of the house and not in the garage. “Yes, Sir Adrian. Your father went out with your mother and the twins.” She revealed with a scowl, deliberately letting him know that Harriett and Damien were alone. None of the maids liked Adrian. Not even when he was falsely accused of having an affair with Harriett. They had always loved Harriet for her humility and kindness. They also knew how much she loved her husband then so, they continued to pray that they reconcile, especially now that they had children. But, Adrian was only getting in the way and they could all see it. “Without Harriet?” Adrian asked and the maid nodded with a smile, leaning in so he could hear her properly. “WITHOUT HARRIETT.” She said, loud enough for him to hear and his expression changed to that o
The Billionaire's Regret Let's get married
“Do you have to go? Hmm?” Damien asked as he watched Harriet pack her clothes. Addison and Adrian were already downstairs with their grandparents and were already packed. “I can’t stay here forever, you know? We aren’t married anymore. It’ll be odd for me to live here.” She chuckled without looking at him, but she could feel his domineering presence behind her, the sweet smell of his perfume gracing her nostrils. “Why would it be? We were once married, Harriett. It won’t be odd for us to live together. So many couples live together without being married these days.” Damien replied and moved closer to her, turning her around so she could look at him. “Oh, Damien. We’re not like everyone. Once the press finds out that we’re living together even though we are divorced, it’s going to affect both our companies. Have you forgotten that you are one of the richest men in the country?” Harriet said, rubbing his arm lightly. “Why do we have to care about what people would say? Hmm? They’ll a

“Welcome back, Miss Edward.” Collin greeted with a smile… a genuine one. He had to be the only person in the building that was happy with her return… asides her father, that is. Harriet returned his smile, glad that she had someone on her side. She definitely needed some positivity around her, especially with everything going on in her life. “Thank you, Collin. How have you been?” She asked as she settled down, preparing herself to drown in the pile of work she was certain was waiting for her. “Very well, Miss Edward. I must say, It’s nice having you back.” He said, switching on his tablet, a sigh leaving his lips as he scrolled through the numerous activities on her schedule. It was a lot, even for her. A week wouldn’t even be enough for her to finish everything she had in her schedule. He felt bad for her. “Come on, Collin. Let me have it.” She waved her hand at the tablet since she saw that he was being too sentimental. Collin slowly gave her the tablet and closed his eyes. As

Later that night, Harriett got a text from Damien, telling her that he would be dropping the twins off at their school and that she didn’t have to worry about it. Harriet thanked him. It was really thoughtful of him and the fact that he also had work that morning warmed her heart. Harriett didn’t sleep when she got home. After spending some time with her twins and having dinner, she went to her room and opened her laptop to complete some work, so it didn’t pile up. She had not even begun when a call from Damien came in. A blush appeared on her face upon seeing his name. He had texted her only one hour ago, and he was already calling. “Why are you awake, Harriet?” His voice came up the minute she picked up the call. “I’ll be going to bed soon. I just have a few documents to review.* Harriet replied, and she heard him hiss. “Go to bed, my love,” He said without realizing it. It is only when the line goes silent that he realizes what he has said. Harriet bit her lips in an attempt t

“What do I have to do?” Those words replayed in Evelyn’s head all through her walk out of the hotel. Her visit to his suite wasn’t so useless after all. Jumping and swinging her hands, Evelyn arrived in the parking lot with a fulfilled look on her face.As she was about to get to her car, a woman and a little boy walked by her, the woman staring like she had seen her before. Evelyn found it odd that she was being stared at like that, so, she looked at the woman closely to see if she was a familiar face and, as she did, her eyes widened in shock. It was almost like she had seen a ghost.She quickly turned her face away, entering her car and zooming off. Her hands trembled as she drove out of the hotel and beads of sweat formed on her forehead.“No way! It can’t be.” She shook her head slowly as she kept seeing the face on her head,“Isn’t that Rachael, Tony’s sister?” She said with horror. Even though she had never seen her in person, Evelyn knew Rachael very well. As a matter of fact
The Billionaire's Regret Same Method, Different Approach
Damien walked into the elevator with a smile on his face. By his side was his ex-wife, Harriet. He took hold of her hands as the elevator dinged. His plan was to show everyone that he was back with Harriet. He didn’t want the men at her company to think she was still single.Harriet noticed what he was doing and only smiled, shifting closer to him. Everyone who was present in the lobby saw them and couldn’t hide their shock. Both Harriet and Damien knew that they would be the trending topic the next day but, they didn’t care. It was about time people knew that their relationship was blossoming again.Damien took Harriet to a five-star restaurant and ordered her favorite Italian pasta and chicken breasts. After lunch, he waited at her office until she was done before taking her home again.By the time he arrived at his house, it was already 8:36pm. Tired from the day’s activity, Damien took a bath and hurried to bed. He was about to drift to sleep when his phone rang. Since he wasn’t i

Adrian balled his fists and growled inwardly at Damien, jealousy and annoyance cursing through his veins.All of a sudden, Damien no longer wanted to leave Harriet’s office. The fact that Adrian was there made him feel the need to stick around. He couldn’t trust Adrian, and it wasn’t a hidden fact that the man was in love with Harriet.No! He just couldn’t leave.“You should leave, Adrian. Harriett is a bit busy,” Damien said, and Adrian smiled, but it didn’t get to his eyes. He was beyond pissed.“Weren’t you leaving, brother?” He asked, raising his brows at Damien.“It’s none of your business, Adrian. Leave.” Damien said one last time before going back into Harriet’s office. Just before the door closed, Adrian heard Harriett’s tender voice.“Damien! I thought you left. Is everything okay?” He heard her say, but before he could hear Damien’s response, the door closed, shutting him out.To say that Adrian felt humiliated and embarrassed would be an understatement. He looked at Collin,

“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.

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

“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
