All Chapters of The Billionaire's Regret: Getting My Wife Back: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

NOVAI couldn't tell why I felt Dashiell had been acting off since he answered that call. Though he looked happy and smiled a lot, I knew he was keeping something from me. It didn't help matters when I saw him whispering with Brion only to stop when I walked in. Seeing them close to each other was shocking, but more shocking was the expression on their faces. Having stayed with Brion for close to 6 years, I knew when he was hiding something, just like he did when I stepped in. However, when I asked what was going on, none of them could give me any favourable response. They kept beating about an overgrown bush until I let them off the hook. “Are you going somewhere?” I inquired when he got ready to leave. A glance at the clock showed it was 6:30 pm. “Yes, I have an appointment with someone. We are supposed to meet by 7, so I'm leaving early to catch up with them.” He ran his fingers through his hair, checking his face with his phone. “Who are you meeting?” I frowned, watching him f

Sighing, I shook my head. “We will pursue this with Henry. I just sent a text to Ben right now with the information. I'm giving him a chance to prove that he can handle this.” It took me driving from Lilith's house to the Café before I decided to involve Ben in the case once more. I wanted him to prove himself worthy by investigating with Henry. “Was he delighted?” “Why wouldn't he? That was me giving him a second chance. Why wouldn't he be happy? He knew I only involved him because of how close we are, else I wouldn't have bothered to call him again.” “I see. And Nova? How are you going to lie your way out of her suspicion? It was difficult getting but to drop the case, and I know she will still ask about it.” “We will keep evading it.” Pinching the bridge of my nose, I leaned back in the chair. “You will be the one to come up with excuses, as she will live with you until we sort everything out.” Brion nodded thoughtfully, his eyes narrowing as he considered the risks. He did

With Dashiell's absence, it felt like the wall was closing in on me, trying to cage me in, while intensifying my worry. I slid back into bed, my mind replaying the conversation with Dashiell. His evasive answers and measured tone hinted at secrets he kept hidden. The more I thought about it, the more my curiosity gnawed at me.What was Dashiell hiding? And why did I feel like my world was about to shatter? I tossed and turned, unable to shake off the feeling of unease.Had Brion not come in to check on me, I would have probably spent half the day in bed, thinking of Dashiell. I didn't ask Brion about their secret, because I knew he wouldn't tell me about it. Brion seemed hell-bent on keeping close lips over the matter, something I let slide. After all, Dashiell had promised to reveal everything when the time's right. Disturbing Brion for answers wouldn't yield anything fruitful. "Have you heard from Dashiell?” I asked the moment I walked into Brion's hospital room. The kids had just

That night, I struggled to get a good night's rest. By 6, I had already risen and contacted the police station to inquire about the status of their search. Once again, the reports they provided were not positive. Throughout the night, they made efforts to trace Lilith, yet they were unsuccessful. The most recent video of her, taken by the CCTV, showed her leaving home two days ago in the morning. That was the last she was seen. Dashiell was the only one who had been to her house, and that was the night ago when he lied about meeting a client. So far, all the leads the police had got, led to a dead end, with no favourable report. "What do you think we should do?" I asked Brion, worried. The kids and Brion were supposed to be discharged from the hospital today, but I asked the doctor to hold it off until we find Dashiell. With the way things were at the moment, they were safer in the hospital than in the house. Brion lifted his shoulders in a shrug, letting me know what he thought a

LILITH From the time Zoey asked me to return to the house without meeting Dashiell, to when she asked me to arrange another meeting with her, it felt like a movie on 5x speed.It wasn't difficult to get Dashiell. When I sent the second text to him and begged him to meet me at the guest house a few miles from my house, he didn't even think it was odd for me to do that. Zoey was standing by the door when he stepped into the room, so she hit him hard on the back, and he fell unconscious. That was how we got Dashiell, tied to the bed in the other room. “Give me a smile, Lils.” Zoey grinned, sipping from her glass of whiskey. She had this personality of having whiskey whenever she was happy, which was almost all the time. “What do I have to do next?” I demanded, staring straight into her eyes. I needed nothing more but to get the task out of the way so I could be rid of her. Having Zoey with me at every turn was giving me intense nightmares. I wanted this to be over, so I could be f
