All Chapters of Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Nicklaus POV:The next morning, our luggage was neatly arranged, and we planned to return to Los Angeles from the Bahamas. I wish I could stay here and have more fun, but I also miss working.It was a lovely honeymoon, even though I wish it had lasted a little longer, but I had to embark on new work projects that needed my full attention.I had a cold bath and changed into black joggers and a black shirt with black sneakers. Black and grey has always been my thing. It made me look unapproachable and serious. I also wore a black pair of eyeglasses and waited for Elena in the living room.“Elena, are you ready?” I asked from the sitting room.“Yes, I am. I will be with you shortly.” Elena yelled, and she walked out of the bedroom. She was dressed in grey joggers and a white shirt. She wore white sneakers and packed her hair into a sleek bun. I could not help but admire her beauty and also see her as one of my favourite colours. She looked more beautiful as the days went by.I smiled a

Elena’s POV: It’s been three weeks since we came back from our honeymoon, and everything seemed perfect. My new life had been perfect and even way more beautiful than I ever imagined it with Caleb. Nicklaus has been very nice to me; he took care of me, and we have grown close together. We now share a strong bond. I have become so fond of him that I always find myself thinking about him whenever he is at work. We always talked on the phone and went on dinner dates. This morning, we decided to have breakfast together. I came downstairs before Nicklaus and chatted with the chef. I had built a strong relationship with the workers, and we usually have conversations now and then. Nicklaus sat him down after a few minutes, and we sat in the dining area. I decided to serve myself a cup of coffee. Nicklaus gave me a stern look. “Why are you chatting with the chef and serving yourself?” he asked. Before I could say anything, I heard a loud sound on the dining table, and I looked towards

Elena’s POV:Beep, Beep, Beep, BeepI heard the sound of my beeping phone, and I stirred on the bed. I woke up very early in the morning and stretched as my phone rang. I reached for my phone and looked at the screen. I sluggishly opened my eyes and looked through the screen.It was Nicklaus calling. He had travelled to Germany for a business meeting, and he had been calling me nonstop. We had been missing each other, and we were always speaking on the phone. I picked it up immediately. I had missed his voice badly. We spoke for some time, and I began feeling nauseous and tired. I had been feeling sick for a while, so I went back to bed, hoping to sleep off and gather enough strength for the day.I woke up after a few hours and felt worse than before. I managed to roll out of bed and walk into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and splashed water on my face to revive myself. The cool water made me feel refreshed.As I looked in the mirror, I knew something was wrong. I couldn't explain

Elena’s POV:I wanted to object to Irina's suggestion, but I was caught off guard when the door was swung open. I turned around to see who it was, expecting to see Zoey, who had just returned to Los Angeles.I couldn't believe it was Sarah standing in the doorway. I looked at her like I had seen a ghost.What could she be doing here? None of my family cared to visit me ever since I got married and moved in here.I stood up from the bed, my heart beating fast as I looked at her. What is she doing here? Is she up to something again?"Sarah? What are you doing here?" I asked calmly.I remembered how she set me up on my wedding day and ruined everything, but that her plan made me happy.Her facial expression was mixed with sadness and regret, and I frowned at her and walked to the other side of the room.I looked through the window. I wasn't ready to have any conversation with her, and at the same time I couldn't send her out of my house. She slowly walked into the room and stood close t

Nicklaus’ POV: Two days ago.It had been a long day at work for me. I sat behind the desk and operated my laptop. I stood up and walked around to see how the new application design was carried out.I and my team worked hand in hand to see that everything was perfect and going smoothly. I have been working to bring the company to its feet and maintain the position of being the first in the world.I got carried away with work, and before I knew it, the day had passed. I wasn't supposed to take so long, but business had to be done. I had to still maintain my position. I didn't want to mix business with you, please, but I found myself missing Elena. I couldn't wait to return to Los Angeles. I had been thinking about her since I travelled. I wondered how she was doing and if she was in good shape. I couldn't wait to see her. When I spoke with her last night, I noticed that she was sounding weak and tired, so I allowed her to sleep, hoping that she would regain her strength today. I hop
