All Chapters of His Regret: Winning Back Her Heart: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Marietta’s POV“I’m sorry sir. I can’t work with your firm,” I answered. “I have other things to do. If you will excuse me,” I said.Standing up to take my leave, my gaze lingered on Jackson.“Can we talk?” He asked with pleading eyes.“I don’t want to have anything to do with any of you. Can you please leave me alone?” I yelled.Forgetting that I was in an office setting. I stormed out in anger.“Clara, annul every meeting for today,” I commanded.“Ma’am, this is going to affect some of the contracts we are to sign with the Hollywood’s best–”“Since when did you start questioning my order?” I barked.“I-I’m sorry ma’am.” she bowed. “You have a call ma’am,” Clara chimed. “I’m not in the mood for calls.” I rebuked.Making my way towards the car, Clara called.“It’s Valerie, ma’am.” Just as she mentioned Valerie I quickly took a pause. “Valerie says she wants to see her father,” Clara relayed her message.Yesterday was her birthday and now she’s asking to see her father?“Listen, Va

Michael's POVI had closed for the day's work. I was heading home when my phone suddenly rang in my pocket. I was about to pick up the call when one of the staff called out to me. “Mr. Whitmore,” she ran towards me. No doubt, Gloria was the best lady I've ever worked with. She is a good woman as far as I know. A genius when it comes to Artificial intelligence and Machine learning. And yes, I admire her for that. Gloria is smart, intelligent, independent and to top it all–she’s beautiful.Ever since I employed her, she has always been admiring me. And yes, I’d be lying if I were to say I didn’t notice that.“Yes,” I answered. Adjusting my glasses to look at her. She seemed a bit shy, but I looked past her shyness and just kept my calm.Is everything okay?” I questioned.“Y-Yes.” She stuttered.“Since we won the contract. I was thinking you’d be interested in the night party,” she proposed.“Not at all. I’ll pass. Enjoy,” I responded coldly.Just as I was about to leave, her

Marietta’s POVI was quickly discharged from the hospital. Luckily for me, the injuries I sustained didn’t take long before they healed.And yes, I’m back to work.As for the stranger, I couldn’t meet him again. All I knew was that he was the one who had rescued me that day.What isn’t clear to me is why he was always there to prevent me from harm.Am I starting to feel something for him? I’m not sure, what it was.I mean, it’s only normal for anyone to fall for their superheroes. Just like in novels.“The Blumhouse productions–”“What about them?” I asked, aiming towards my office.“They said they will only partner with us. If only we can join hands with the Sterlings and Whitmore for the ongoing AI movie production,” Clara replied.“What do you think?” I stared at Clara.“At this stage, if we refused to join hands with them, the company might crumble,” Clara answered.She is right. Everyone who had supported this acting firm had started to withdraw.Taking their shares to Sterling

Marietta’s POV“What do you mean by that statement?” I challenged myself.With my eyes bored into his, I tried to contemplate where we’d had an encounter before.But I couldn’t seem to remember any.Yes, except for the day he rescued me and I found myself lying in his bed. With my clothes on, actually. “Work with me. And I promise to pay double of whatever it is my father has promised,” he said.Pushing the documents to me. He relaxed back into his chair.“And if I refuse?” “I’ll still be here to help you up,” he replied.“Why?” I questioned.“Stay away from my brother,” was all he could say.Jackson, who, under the pretense, has been my ally.Through thick and thin he has helped me. Days I felt like giving up. He was my confidante. Why should I pick a stranger who confessed he was his brother over him?“You can think about it. You have three days to do that,” he said.Getting up to his feet. He made his way out.But just as he was about to leave. He paused. “That night…I didn’t d

Marietta’s POVAt first, we both stayed locked for a moment before I finally got back to my senses.I was about to slap him when Valerie’s voice stopped me.“Daddy,” she called excitedly.Shoving his hand off my waist, I took a step back.Just as I watched him rush towards Valerie. I stuck my ears to the door.I could hear flashes of the camera and murmurings.Just then, my phone rang. It was Bella.“Bella, what’s up?”“Have you checked your phone to see the news?” she inquired.“You know how much I hate the internet. What’s going on?” I questioned impatiently.Soon a message appeared on my phone, and I quickly rushed to check it out.THE WHITMORES ARE FINALLY BACK TOGETHER AFTER FOUR YEARS OF SEPARATION. “What’s going on girl? And what’s with the pictures?” Bella lashed out.“I’ll explain to you once I’m done,” I said.Hanging up, I made my way to the living room.“Valerie, I need you to go upstairs,”“Mommy, I want to play with Daddy,” she pleaded.“Now,” I added more pressure.Usin
