All Chapters of THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: I shouldn't have divorced y: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Chapter 31Keeping Secrets Lila was seated in the dining room, enjoying some tea while talking on the phone. Her tone sounds like she’s making a confidential call.She spoke for long, while she kept monitoring to know if anyone was watching her, yet she didn't even notice that Aunt Kendy was stealing glances at her.Aunt Kendy could only guess that she was speaking with a man, but certainly not a friend nor a lover. The tone doesn't sound like one who is in love!To keep the confidentiality of her communication, Lila had put her phone on the lowest volume."Please make it snappy and be extra careful. I'll be at the airport, waiting for you,” she said in a low voice with a serious but calm look.“What is she up to? Oh, I just hope my angel has not gotten herself entangled in any criminal act because of the hardships of this life.” Aunt Kendy couldn't help but feel worried about Lila's nature of call.“Young Miss Lila,”Aunt Kendy interrupted.Lila growled at the moment she heard Aunt

Chapter 33First day at work The echoing of those unbelievable words still left Aunt Kendy in shock.“W–what do you mean by what you just said, young miss?” Her face was expressionless as she asked.“I just said it now, that you're not seeing a ghost, Aunt Kendy; that's my father you're seeing in there. I know you might be surprised, but he just arrived today. Remember when I left for the supermarket earlier? I just went to pick him up at the airport and bring him down here,” Lila explained.“So you mean you're responsible for his disappearance all this while? You mean you were the ones that kidnapped him?”Aunt Kendy interrogated with a fixed gaze at Lila. Lila said nothing; she only nodded in response.In an instant, tears of joy welled up in Aunty Kendy's eyes as they began to flow uncontrollably while she embraced Lila in a warm hug.“I'm so proud of you! I knew that you don't have a wicked heart to keep grudges against your father,” she whispered into Lila's ears.“But, how wer

Chapter 35“No way! I can never let them go free with these disastrous plans. For this, I'll be forced to avenge even my mother's death!” Lila said to herself as she lay on the big sofa in her room, going through the soft copy of some company's documents that needed her attention.She tried to focus but she couldn't. Her mind was still reflecting on the fact that Ma'am Elena would despise her family so much that they would want she and her father's deaths at all costs.She's struggling as much to grab some sleep so that she won't be dozing off at work, but the sleep was not coming.And that has been one of her biggest fears. Anytime she's working, she always tries to get enough rest to avoid wearing a dull face at work the next day.“Jeez! It's 7:00am already!” Lila exclaimed and stumbled out of the bed the moment she heard the knock on her door and decided to check out for time on her phone, which was situated on the bedside table.“Gosh! I just pray I don't start by receiving a quer

Chapter 37Joan's Hatred“What's so special about the paper that you wanted to keep it hidden, Lila? Com'on, even divorce papers are no longer kept hidden nowadays,” Joan goaded with a wicked smile.She stood and watched Lila's hand tremble as they stretched to present the paper to Mr. Damian. Although the content is known to her already.“What the hell is this? Termination of appointment! Who gave you this?” Mr. Damian exclaimed. His neutral expression was gradually turning fierce as he sat with annoyance and the chair creaked in protest. “Mr. Anthonio gave it to me, sir,” Lila responded with a stammering voice.Mr. Damian scoffed and paused for a while. “You're barely a month into the job! What must you have done to attract a sack letter?” He demanded with his brows knitted and nostrils widened.“I came late to work, sir. He said I don't deserve the work if I should start coming late at this early stage,” Lila explained in soft sobs within her mind.“So was that why you were leavi

Chapter 39Caring for her bossLila walked towards the hospital route, pondering Aunt Kendy's words.But there were some elements of truth in what she was saying!If not, why is she so attached and concerned about him more than a normal boss and staff rapport?But even if she later falls in love with him and he feels the same towards her, what would she do with her pregnancy?Of course, no single man would want to marry a divorced and pregnant woman.She felt an utmost discouragement dawning on her for keeping the pregnancy, but a sharp voice scolded her instantly, “Remember, your child is your utmost priority!”“That's true. After all, my purpose of being in this town is to re-establish myself and my career, not to fall in love.” She consoled herself and distracted her thoughts with a different thing.“Daughter of the devil!” Joan glared and hissed at Lila the moment she stepped into the hospital ward.Lila feigned deafness to her statement and proceeded to stand beside Damian's bed.
