All Chapters of Her Return, His Regret: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

It was the weekend and Lora had just finished reviewing some reports in her study when her phone buzzed. She glanced at the screen and a smile crossed her lips when she saw Jason’s name. “Hello, Jay,” Lora answered. “Hi, Lora… or should I say Miss L now since the cat is out of the bag?” Jason teased on the phone. “You keep being in the limelight and now, there’s no day that goes by without the media houses talking about the highly talented designer, Miss L. Perhaps I should be good to you in case meeting you becomes so hard in the future… You’re more popular than idol stars now.” “Oh, stop it, Jason,” Lora said but her voice was light with mirth. “You’re exaggerating! I can’t be more popular than idol stars.” “Are you sure?” Jason remarked. “I’m afraid you’re going to need security soon because a lot of your fans will be flocking to you for autographs. With that said… can I be the first in line? Can I have the honour of inviting the talented designer to lunch today? I’ll get your a

“Grandpa, what’s going on? What’s the emergency?” Ryan asked worriedly when they got to Charles’ study. Charles cleared his throat. He sat back in his chair and said, “Before we get to that… there’s something I want to ask you. As Lora’s work partner, what do you think of her?” Ryan frowned, not knowing why his grandfather asked that question. He replied, “Lora’s very talented, Grandpa. Her skills are unlike anything I’ve ever seen before… It’s a pity our partnership ended, she would have been a great asset to our Jewelry company.” Charles studied his grandson, a knowing glint in his eyes. He knew his grandson so well and knew that Ryan was already seeing Lora in a new light, although Ryan himself was unaware of this.He smiled and remarked, “Knowing how it’s not easy to impress you, you must have a high opinion of Lora Davis for you to speak so highly of her.”Ryan shrugged and said, “Well, she’s good at what she does, Grandpa.” Charles let out a chuckle. He grinned and replied,

“Are you sure you received all the shipments for this month?” Lora asked one of the personnel at the port. She had received a lead earlier but it turned out to be a false lead. That was when she realised someone was deliberately trying to lead her in the opposite direction. So, she decided to go to the port and check for herself whether the shipment was missing or not. The personnel looked through his records and confirmed, “Yes, all the shipments arrived safely. None was lost at sea.” “Ok, did anyone from Davis & Co. sign a release document for shipment XXXXX?” Lora questioned seriously. The man appeared to hesitate. He gulped and said, “No, Ma’am. No one has signed yet. It seems they couldn’t find the shipment.”Lora frowned. “But you said all the shipment arrived.” “Yes… but yours mysteriously disappeared and no one signed for it,” the man said. “Ok… I’ll search for it myself,” Lora remarked, she was about to turn around when she heard a familiar voice. “Lora!” Lora froze wh

Meanwhile, Ivy's phone buzzed and she checked the message she had received. Her eyes turned vicious when she saw the photos on her phone. She dug her nails into her palms, anger bubbling up within her. The private investigator she had hired just sent her photos of Lora. However, she didn’t expect to see Ryan in those photos. ‘Ryan, why do you keep following Lora around? She’s not working with you anymore…’ Ivy thought in her mind. Deep down, she knew the reason Ryan couldn’t stay away from Lora. It was because Lora looked like his late wife. Perhaps like her, Ryan also wanted to confirm Lora’s identity. Ivy couldn’t have that. She had to find out before Ryan so that she could get rid of Lora and her kids. After enduring for many years, waiting for Ryan to finally marry her, Ivy wouldn’t give up so easily. Hatred flashed through her eyes as she muttered to herself, “I can’t afford to lose Ryan… Not to that bitch, Lora!” …The next day, Lora was in her office when Hannah knocked o

Ryan had met his friend Adan to have a couple of drinks. He took that moment to ask about how the investigation was coming along. Adan shook his head and said, “Something feels fishy, bro. My men are good at finding out things… but this particular case has been difficult. We haven’t gotten any more news since last time.” Ryan narrowed his eyes. He recalled how Lora reacted each time he got close to her… it was almost like she was hiding something and was afraid he would find out. He took a sip of his wine and remarked, “Keep looking. Pump in more money if possible. I want to know everything there is to know about Lora Davis.” Adan nodded, knowing this was important to his friend. He took out his phone and began to scroll through his social media when he came across a piece of news. His eyes widened in shock. “Oh shit.” Ryan glanced at him lazily and asked, “What is it? One of your women again?” “No, man… I don’t know if I should show you this,” Adan remarked. “Why? Does it have
