Harriet brought the kids and joined Damien, who was waiting for her. She couldn’t believe that Stacy would be so biased. She loved her as a mother, but after seeing her side with Adrian, even after everything he had done, it made her question her relationship with both her and the kids. The last thing Harriet wanted was for Stacy to teach her children to defend criminals.

She was sure of one thing. She didn’t want her children anywhere close to her. She could trust her anymore, and she could wake up one day and let Adrian back into the house while her children were there.

“I’m sorry, mother, but this will be the last time you see our kids until Adrian is caught.” Damien said, as though he read Harriet’s mind.

Stacy stared at him with wide eyes, obviously not happy with his decision.

“You cannot stop me from being with my grandchildren! It’s their birthday this week! I have to be there!” She said in a shaky voice.

Stacy might have been blind to Adrian’s actions but, she loved her grand

    Since Stacy got the message from the unknown number late in the night, Thomas could not do anything but wait until it was morning before letting Damien know about it and also taking matters into his own hands. He and Stacy spent the night in each other’s arms as he kept trying to calm her down. Her temperature had gone up, and she was sweating profusely. The news had shocked her so much but all she could do was pray that her son survived.“What do you think happened to him? He was fine the last time we spoke.” She asked her husband, who also had no idea how their son was suddenly in a hospital bed.“It doesn’t look like he was involved in an accident. I’m guessing he got shot.” Thomas said, looking at the picture that was sent to Stacy.“But, who would do that to him?” Stacy asked in a shaky voice with her head laid on her husband’s chest.“I don’t know, my love. You should get some rest.” He said, dismissing the topic.Thomas wasn’t stupid. He knew that something had transpired betw

  • The Billionaire's Regret    Finally Free?

    Evelyn finished with her late breakfast and went into Adrian’s room to check up on him. She didn’t know why she still bothered checking on him when he had been the same for days. No real progress had been made with his health, and he wasn’t even showing any signs of recovering.It was driving her crazy. Another thing that bothered her was the fact that Stacey had ignored her text. She didn’t even send a single reply. Evelyn almost thought she didn’t see the text but, it ticked twice, which meant that she had even opened the picture.‘Does she not care about her son anymore?” Evelyn wondered. She desperately needed the money to fly out of the country. If Adrian wakes up, she would no longer need to worry about anything as he would do the thinking. But, since he was half-dead, she had to take matters into her own hands. Her plan was to blackmail Stacy into sending her some money, so she could leave the country. She didn’t mind leaving Adrian in the house. He was already dead, so there

    Damien took Adrian to the hospital, so he could receive proper treatment. As soon as he arrived, he called his father.“We’re at the hospital now, dad. He hasn’t woken up, but the doctor says that he will in a few hours.” Damien informed his father and he heard the man sigh in relief. After seeing the picture Evelyn sent, he feared that Adrian would not make it.“I’ll come with your mother. She has been restless since she woke up.” Thomas said, and Damien nodded before hanging up.He went into Adrian’s room one last time to check on him before leaving for the warehouse Dante was taking Evelyn to. He knew it was illegal, but he needed answers and that was the only way to get those answers.As he entered his car, his phone rang and an unknown number appeared on the screen. After much hesitation, he decided to pick the call.“Damien, It’s Tony.” The familiar voice said. “I guess you might have forgotten about everything going on but, you were supposed to send me the address of where you

    Stacy didn’t wait for the car engine to turn off before running into the hospital. She had been trying to stay calm all through the ride but, as soon as the hospital building came into view, she felt her anxiety return.“Stacy! Wait!” Thomas tried to call her, but she closed the door before he could finish and ran into the hospital.“A-drian Daniels. Where is he?” She asked the receptionist with a shaky voice. “Mrs Daniels!” The receptionist recognized her immediately and bowed slightly. But, Stacy was in no mood for greetings.“Where is my son?” She asked again, raising her voice this time.“Y-yes. He’s in the VIP ward. Ward 4.” The receptionist said, sighting her husband, Thomas Daniels, behind her.As soon as the words left her lips, Stacy took off like a mad woman, searching for his room. Without searching for long, the ward came into view and she went in.“Oh, Adrian.” Tears started flowing from her eyes as she stared at her son lying on the bed with oxygen connected to him.“Wha

    “You can’t fire me, Miss Edward. You have no proof against me. All you have been doing is laying false accusations on me. You can’t prove that I am responsible for that article.” Alexa said with a confident look on her face. She expected Harriet to suspect her but what she didn’t expect was for her to actually fire her. As far as she was concerned, Harriet had no power to do that. Especially since she works for the chairman directly.“I figured you’d say that.” Harriet smirked and pulled out her hands to Collin, who immediately gave her his own tablet.“I must commend your efforts, Alexa. You did an excellent job at hiding your tracks. But, it wasn’t good enough,” Harriet said, and showed everyone the evidence. They had tracked down the IP address and, as expected, it corresponded with hers.“Leave, Alexa.” Harriet said and stood to her feet. “The next person who tries this will be faced with a bigger punishment. That’s all for today’s meeting.” She said as she walked out of the mee

  • The Billionaire's Regret    Not Sorry

    Damien arrived at the hospital only to see his mother sitting outside Adrian’s room, soaked in her own tears. Even though he was furious with her, he couldn’t ignore the ache in his heart as he saw her in such a state.“D-damien?” Stacy called out as soon as she saw him. To say that she was ashamed of herself would be an understatement. Not only had she supported Adrian’s wrongdoings, she also neglected her elder son. She felt responsible for Adrian’s behavior. Maybe if she hadn’t pampered him so much, he wouldn’t have come out that way. “God! I can’t even look at you.” She whispered, lowering her head into her palm as she continued crying.“Why aren’t you inside, Mum? Is everything okay?” Damien asks in a cold tone. He didn’t want to forgive her so easily because she had deeply hurt him with her actions.Stacy sensed his distant behavior and she ached even more.“Can you ever forgive me, my boy?” She finally summoned the courage to ask, looking at him with teary eyes. “I never knew

    It took Damien less than three hours to find Adrian’s lawyer. The man had fled to his vacation home, leaving his wife and children in New York. He must have known that Adrian was in trouble, seeing as he took every single document from the house before fleeing. But, he wasn’t smart enough to clean his tracks properly.Damien didn’t want to fly out to get him since his vacation home was in Mexico. He didn’t want to leave the country with everything that was happening. Even though Adrian had been arrested, he didn’t want to take his chances and leave his family alone. So, he sent Dante and his men instead. Damien was still at the hospital when he made the calls. He had sent his mother home a few minutes ago but couldn’t leave himself as he needed to make sure that he was making some progress.When he finally decided to leave, he checked his time, only to realize that it was already a few minutes to nine.

    After Damien’s threat, Mr. Devon immediately started spilling information from his mouth. But, his important files and recordings were at his house in New York, so Damien had to go with him.“This is everything I have. This should help you prove your father’s innocence and get your company back.” He said, still shivering with fear. His wife and children were in their rooms upstairs, so he feared that Damien would change his mind and expose him.One thing about Damien was that he was a lover of the truth and justice. Mr. Devon was a corrupt lawyer who had no business in the practice. So, he was going to expose him after he was done with everything.“You picked the right side, Devon. Thanks for this.” Damien said with a smile and walked out of his house, but not before saying one last thing.“We’ll meet again, Devon. I am looking forward to it.”Damien immediately took the documents and recordings to the prosecution and in no time, his father was proved innocent and free to go. All art

    TWO DAYS LATERIt was a Monday morning and the break from the hospital had come to an end. Lily woke up feeling restless. Since the party, she had been unable to sleep properly as the events of the Mehdi’s party continued replaying in her head. All she seemed to think about was Louis's words. It had been haunting her like a ghost and no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t shake it off.What annoyed her was that she didn’t know what he planned to do. She didn’t have a single idea so, she was scared he would strike at any time.“Get yourself together, Lily!” She tapped her cheeks with her hands as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.“Don’t think about it. Please, don’t think about it.” She whispered as she brushed her hair into place.“Focus, Lily. Focus!” She said own last time before going into the bathroom to get ready for the day.By the time she got out of the bathroom, it was already a few minutes past eight and she was to be at the hospital by 9 am. She dressed up qui

    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!

    “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.
