The billionaire's regret CHAPTER SEVEN: may the best man win
Eryx sneered at his brother with a hateful gaze that could burn the whole building down.“Come on brother. Are you scared?” He questioned playfully as sat on the chair that was in front of zephyr.“I think it's the other way round”. Zephyr counteracted with a straight gaze as he tried to fix the sleeves of his hand made shirt.“Let's cut the small talk, shall we?” Eryx's eyes narrowed, scanning him like he was some underling he was sizing up. “You’re probably wondering why I bothered to come all the way here.”Zephyr smiled inwardly. He knows exactly why he was here, but he wanted to hear him say it. He gestured with one of his fingers for him to continue.“I am here because of Nova. Stay away from her. Do not think because you finally found us you can get back into her life. Before you do that you will have to face my wrath”. He tilted his head slightly, a mockery of casualness, but the tension in his jaw betrayed the control it took to keep his temper in check.Zephyr slammed his ha

Zephyr picked up his call and his eyes widened. “I will be right there, just, make sure to keep her safe”. He uttered rigidly with a hint of worry.“Ethan, take me to the car”. He ordered. It seems Nova was in some kind of distress, the men he placed to watch over her had just called.He needed to reach her first before Eryx did. He will prove to her that he cares about her and their son.Ethan nodded as he wheeled him to his car. Since his butler wasn't here, yet he was going to drive him to Nova.*****Somewhere in New York, in starlight dominion entertainment industry Nova was being attacked by the press. And there with her was Jane who wanted to carry matters into her hands.“Mrs. Nova, so you did have a failed marriage”. One of the reporters questioned with a serious gaze.“No comment”. Nova said wearing her sunshades and wanted to walk off until Jane decided to add fuel to the already dying fire.“Don't you think your response is dangerous to your career? You should clear out th

Nova immediately entered her car and drove home, she was unaware that Zephyr was just behind her. When she got to her apartment she suddenly heard a familiar voice call her name.“Nova!” Zephyr, who was now in his automatic wheelchair, wheeled himself towards Nova.“What… Are you doing here?”. She stuttered. Her anger didn't go unnoticed by Zephyr, and that made him so sad. He was once the only person who existed to her, but now it seemed like he never meant anything to her.It was all his fault, and he concluded that he deserved whatever treatment he was getting from her.“I asked you a question, Zeph”. She didn't realize she had just called him by his shortened name. Zephyr felt his heart boil with joy, and he started to smile.“Why are you smiling?” Her hands clenched into fists at her sides, nails biting into her palms. How dare he smile at her like that when he made her miserable.“No…it's just that you called me zeph and it made me happy”. I just feel that we can work things ou

“Oh! It's not something serious. Just a party to celebrate our current movie. Our sponsors will be there, and I was asked to specially invite you”. A lopsided grin tugged at the corner of his mouth. While One hand casually tucked into his pocket, the other gestured loosely in the air as if the invitation weren’t a big deal. “Wait. Are you talking about the luxurious party that is being held by one of the most famous producers in New York?” She wonders why he was talking so casually about it.Jane rolled her eyes as Nova spoke. Always acting like the world revolved around her. Jane thought with a scrunched expression.“Yes Nova. You got it right”. He smiled.“But why didn't you inform me earlier? I haven't even prepared anything. I have nothing to wear and”….“No worries, we have everything under control. Right Jane?”. He diverted towards an unbothered Jane.“Uhh. Yes”. She simply said not knowing what she was about to hear next will blow her mind.“You might be wondering why I am hel
Last Updated : 2024-11-28The billionaire's regret CHAPTER ELEVEN: pregnancy
Nova didn't expect Eryx to propose to her to become his girlfriend. Not that she didn't notice the way he would look at her and would always smile brightly, like he was lost in her green eyes.She was sure he had just grown a liking for her. After all, if two people keep close touch with each other there is a ninety percent chance of them falling in love.But the question was. Was she in love with Eryx? “Nova”. Eryx called out her name. She seems to be lost in thought. Leaving him in a turmoil of disaster. What if she said no. This was supposed to be his master plan.A plan that would place his brother in his place. He knew she told him that she didn't want to get into a relationship. But he wanted to try his best. And with the crowd, he could manipulate her into accepting it.“Yes”… Nova replied with a low voice as she was still contemplating.“Oh my God Nova”. Eryx heard her loud and clear. “You have just made me the happiest man on earth”. He exclaimed with extreme euphoria.Nova s

“Thank God you are here?” Eryx immediately changed his countenance. An ability that is only capable of maniacs.Jane was in intense pain, she couldn't tell Alex that the person who put her in this condition is the same person who is pretending to care.“What happened?” Alex's irritated expression had disappeared ,it was replaced with a worried one. He followed Eryx to investigate his actions but he met this instead.“But why do you have blood on your hands and shirt?” He asked with one eyebrow raised.“I was trying really hard to help her myself but I couldn't. I was on my way to find additional help”.His eyes locked onto his with calculated intensity, as if daring alex to doubt him.“Okay, let's get help immediately. She is bleeding”. He said as he walked forward and immediately swapped Jane into his arms leaving Eryx who later followed suit.The only thing on Jane's mind was how Eryx could do this to her and her child. It's all your fucking fault Nova. If Eryx wasn't so obsessed with

You were right? He wanted to gain custody of his child. He knew it wouldn't be possible because Nova was a good mother. However, because she agreed to become Eryx's girlfriend then he had leverage.Eryx was a fucking demon. Someone who killed his own father. He just found out after he asked his assistant to run an investigation on things he has done.And he found out that his brother was responsible for the death of his father. He was going to make Eryx pay. But for now, he would tag him as abusive using one of his flings.And if Eryx tries to misbehave, he will make him choose between getting punished for violence or murder. But of course, he would still make him pay, but not now.After all what is the use of rushing into things? He likes to take things slow. His lips curved upwards.“Well done Kevin”, He said to the drop gorgeous lawyer. He was well known as a very ruthless lawyer when it came to defending his client.Rumors have it that his opponent usually declared guilty just from

But mind you, he still did have little secret moments with Zephyr in school. Making Nova unaware.Nova walked towards the door without knowing who it was. Until her brain clicked, it was probably Eryx, and he might want to apologize for his misconduct at last night's event.She had never seen him like that, and she wouldn't even lie, she was extremely shocked.As she opened the door, she started to speak even before she saw the person at the door. “Eryx, you have the key to my.”……. She stopped talking just as soon as she started.“How sweet”. The voice interjected.“Kev”… her eyebrows furrowed, and a sneer almost escaped out of her mouth.“What are you… Doing here?” She stuttered. Her brows knitted together, drawing a faint crease across her forehead as her eyes darted back and forth,

Chapter 44Willow’s throat went dry. What was the crazy woman saying?.What did she mean by Kevin ruining her? “It's all in the past now. Kevin is fighting so hard to forgive himself. He is sorry for what he did.” "I don't care! I don't!’ Hazel . Willow shrunk back at her bark. She looked crazy. For a second, Willow wondered how Kevin had gotten tangled with her in the first place. "He defiled me. He took everything from me." Hazel’s face twisted in rage. “He destroyed me!” she screamed. “I can’t function as a woman! Do you understand what that means?” Kevin who had been looking at the entire scene with fear and flinched like he had been struck. His fingers dug into his hair, his whole body curling inward. Hazel wasn’t done. She scoffed at Kevin's reaction. Like she didn't care how much she was hurting him. Willow watched Hazel scowl as she watched Kevin. “You think I didn’t try to move on?” she spat, pacing like a caged animal. “You think I didn’t want to heal? I met men, go
The billionaire's regret Chapter 43: panicking
Chapter 43Kevin’s breathing grew erratic, his chest was rising and falling asleep he took shallow gasps. His hands clutched at his head, fingers twisting into his hair as though he wanted to tear away the thoughts consuming him. His entire body trembled, knees buckling beneath him. “No… no, no, no…” His voice was hoarse, barely a whisper but filled with a terror that made Willow terrified. “Hey!" She called out, rushing to his side. He rocked back and forth, his fingers pressing against his ears as if trying to block out something only he could hear. Willow’s heart leapt. “Kevin—Kevin, what’s wrong?” She reached out, her hands gently grasping his shoulders, trying to remind him that she was there, trying to bring him back from whatever horror had overtaken him. But the moment her fingers touched him, he flinched violently, shoving her away with such force that she stumbled back. Her breath caught. She had never seen him like this before. Had never believed her just push
The billionaire's regret CHAPTER 42: She's alive!!
Meanwhile, away from the renewed hope that Zephyr and Nova felt, Kevin too had just made up with Willow. The room was dimly lit, filled with the warm glow of scented candles that flickered on the nightstand. It was the perfect romantic set up. Something Willow had always longed to do with Kevin. “Did I hurt you?" Kevin whispered into her ears. Willow smiled. How could he ever hurt her? He had just made her complete. He'd reminded her of just how much she missed his touch. His hold. His love. “No, Kevin. You didn't hurt me. You made love to me." Kevin chuckled and kissed her on the lips, his hands hovering just above her breasts. For a second, Willow could feel her body come to life all over again. Was he going to touch her again? She wondered. “You're insatiable," she smiled. “Only for you," Kevin replied and leaned down, pressing his face to her breasts and kissing her cleavage. When she nudged him off, he simply laid draped over her and they smiled and listened to each oth
The billionaire's regret CHAPTER 41: great news
The phone was still pressed against Zephyr’s ear, his pulse racing as he listened to the voice on the other end. "Mr. Lockwood, we have news regarding your wife's condition." Zephyr's heart leapt. A doctor had a solution for Nova? His grip on the phone tightened. "I'm listening." "There's a facility in South Korea that specializes in advanced neurosurgical treatments. A doctor there recently performed a successful operation on a case similar to your wife's. There's a strong possibility she can be treated." For a moment, Zephyr couldn't breathe. His mind has been filled with despair for so long that hope felt foreign, almost unreal. Could this be true? "You mean there’s a chance?" His voice was filled with emotions. "Yes, but time is critical. You need to bring her as soon as possible." Zephyr shot to his feet. "I’ll get her there. Whatever it takes." "We’ll send over the transfer documents immediately. Safe travels, Mr. Lockwood." The call ended. Zephyr stood frozen
The billionaire's regret CHAPTER 40: being in the dark
The doors slammed open loudly. Eryx turned and his smirk vanished. The one person he'd never thought would show up was standing right in front of him. Zephyr. Lilian was shocked and she moved behind Eryx slightly. None of them had counted on Zephyr showing up so unexpectedly. Zephyr strode in, his eyes ignored everyone else and landed squarely on his brother. "What have you done?" Zephyr’s voice was cold, but beneath it, there was rage, barely contained. "How dare you arrest our mother?" But Eryx looked at him with a composed expression. He was too calm for the atrocity he'd just committed. “Speak to me, Eryx! How dare you humiliate our mother?!" Eryx scoffed, stepping forward. "Your mother," he corrected. "Not mine." Zephyr’s brows furrowed. "What nonsense are you spewing now?" Eryx let out a humorless chuckle. "She never told you? Oh, how typical. Always keeping her favorite son in the dark, trying to protect his fragile ego." Zephyr looked at him oddly. What was he
The billionaire's regret Chapter 39
Chapter 39Eryx glared at his mother. “You can't make that demand!” Mrs Lockwood scoffed, “You can't steal from your brother." “Am I?" He challenged, “This is my right. The wealth, the power, it's mine too!" He was sick of being told what to do. He was sick of hearing that his brother was the rightful heir. He was sick of it all. "You will not defy me, boy! You will return the power you stole from Zephyr," she said, her voice filled with the usual command. But somehow, she was terrified that Eryx would refuse. Eryx smirked, leaning forward. "Return it? That power was never his to begin with. It was mine too. I was just never given the chance, but that all changes now." Mrs. Lockwood's face twisted into a scowl. "You don't have any power! Nothing was ever yours in this family!" she snapped, exasperated. "You are not even…" "Not even your child?" Eryx finished for her. "I know." He let the words settle, watching as her pupils dilated in shock. "I know everything, Mother. No,
The billionaire's regret Chapter thirty eight : you are not my mother!
“Mummy mummy”, little Xavier immediately ran towards his mother, he climbed her not minding the fact that she was sick. Afterall he was just a child.“No little man you can't sit on mummy like that okay”. He took the boy into his arms.“Daddy, what happened to mummy? Do you think she will be fine?” He asked with anxiousness filled in his voice.“Don't worry my boy, your mother is the strongest woman on earth”. He hated the fact that he had to lie to the little boy but how could he be brutal? How could he tell the boy that his mother had less than three months to live.Nova was so weak but she could feel the love of Zephyr for their son, he was a good man And he was going to take perfect care of their son when she was gone and that made her heart feel at peace.“Umm, I will just stay outside”. Bailey, the nanny who had brought Xavier chirped in. She gave them privacy.The family of three hugged each other and for a very long time Zephyr felt complete again.But just when you think that
The billionaire's regret CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN: More regrets
Zephyr was literally sitting on the floor with a heavy heart and confused mind. This was just so sudden to him. The light at the top of the intensive care unit had gone off indicating that whatever intensive care was given to Nova was over.The door opened and Nova was wheeled in a stretcher by the nurses. Zephyr stood up almost as if he had been chased by a dog.“How is she?” he said as he rushed to Nova who looked so pale, her lips were lighter and her eyelids would flicker from time to time, however her beauty did not falter, she was still the most beautiful woman he had set his eyes on.“She is now stable”. You can stay by her side sir. The doctor said with politeness in his voice and character.After about thirty minutes and after Nova Nova had been moved from the intensive care unit to her personal ward she finally woke up and the first person she saw was zephyr.“Zephyr”, she whispered his name with a weak voice. Zephyr who was already lost in thoughts immediately pulled out of
The billionaire's regret CHAPTER THIRTY SIX: sick
Eryx was startled for a second. He didn't understand how Zephyr was suddenly here.Zephyr immediately came and took Nova from Eryx.” Nova, Nova are you fine”. He shook her several times but there was only a weak response. She didn't look good and it didn't look like something regular was wrong with her.“What did you do to her Eryx”. He turned to his brother, devastation filled in his eyes.“How..how are you here?” Eryx ignored the most important question at that time.“I followed her here because I was the one who told her to come here”.Eryx scoffed at his brother, then a loud laughter followed suit. “So what were you trying to do? You were trying to spoil my reputation in front of her”. He asked with a sinister expression.Zephyr looked at Nova one more time and she was still breathing. He knew she had to be taken to the hospital. So he took her closer to his arms and raised her up.“Well guess what, your mission was successful”. He blocked Zephyr's way, preventing him from rushing
