“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

  • The Billionaire's Regret    Finding Mr Devon

    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. Immediately, his phone rang. It was a call from Harriet.“Hey.” Her soft voice h

    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

    “Is everything alright, my love?” Ha Young said with a worried voice, patting her back as she helped her get her hair out of her face. Stacy and Damien had also come into the room with her as they were worried for her. “I think it’s the pancakes. The smell did something to my stomach,” Harriet said while rinsing her mouth. Ha Young turned to Stacy and raised her brows, wondering if she was thinking the same thing.“She needs to get changed son. Give us a few minutes.” Stacy said, pushing Damien out of the room.“Are you even being serious, mother? I have definitely seen her naked countless times.” Damien said while holding his laugh in and Harriet choked on her spit.“Damien! You shouldn’t be saying things like that with your mother around!” Stacy slapped his arm and pushed him out completely before shutting the door.“He’s not wrong, you know?” Harriet laughed as soon as Damien was out of the room. “Oh, please.” Stacy rolled her eyes playfully. She and Ha young waited until Harrie

    “I love you more than you can imagine, Harriet. Please, marry me again.” Damien said as he pulled out a shiny diamond ring from his pocket that had everyone in the room ogling. “Damien.” Harriet struggled to control her emotions. Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes as she stared at him. She had no idea that he had been planning a proposal and got impatient. She couldn’t even believe that he said anything when she was threatening to leave him with her children. “Don’t make him kneel for so long, darling.” Ha Young joked, causing all of them to laugh loudly. “God, yes. Yes, I’ll marry you, Damien.” She cried, bringing out her hands for him to place the ring in. As she said those words, Damien felt a weight leave his chest. One of the reasons why he had taken so much time to propose was because he wasn’t sure if she’d still want to get married to him after their last marriage ended. He thought that she might have bad thoughts about marriage because of him. But, as she said t

    Six Months Later.“Can you not run around, Addy? Mummy is too heavy to chase you around.” Harriet said, finding it hard to breathe. She had been trying to give Addison her medicines since she caught a cold but, the little trouble decided to turn it into a game of chase.“You have to catch me, mummy! It’ll make Aliya strong!” Addison said with a giggle, referring to the baby which was still inside Harriet. As soon as it was confirmed that they were expecting a girl, Addison took it upon herself to come up with a name. One week later, she announced that the new baby would be called Aliyah and no one dated object.“Is Addy refusing to take her meds again?” Damien chuckled as he walked down the stairs with Aiden.“Yeah, she…” Harriet started but suddenly felt liquid pour out of her. She stood shocked for a few seconds, as reality hadn’t dawned on her yet. “D-damien. I think the baby is coming.” As soon as she said those words, she was hit with an unbearable pain that had her shutting her

  • The Billionaire's Regret    Chapter 91: Tony and Lily's love story

    LOCATION: PARIS “I’m happy you’ve finally gotten over her, Tony. I agree that Harriet is a wonderful lady, but she is not for you. She loves someone else. You should find someone to love, too.” Rachael said, glad her brother was finally moving on from his long-time unrequited love. Tony sighed and leaned on his chair. He had just returned from New York after witnessing Evelyn’s arrest. He had to leave New York to get over Harriet. He knew that if he stayed with her, he’d never fully get over her. “You know what? To celebrate this, why don’t you go out and have some fun? I’ll call some of your friends and have them join you.” Rachael suggested, and before he could refuse, she was already on a phone call with his friends. It had only been two days since he returned. Tony was sure he wasn’t in the mood to party, not after everything that had happened in New York. He just wanted to lay low for a few days, resume his work at the hospital and slowly get his life back in order. But,

    TWO DAYS LATER It 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 u

    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.
