Semua Bab Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!: Bab 21 - Bab 30

ALEXANDER'S POV I wasn't thinking, ever since the meeting with Hazel, I couldn't think straight. Since the day I saw Katherine again at my office, I had always assumed that she was back to get revenge on me for leaving her back then but after what Hazel said, it got me thinking twice.Maybe Katherine really didn't know that I was the CEO of RodaTech, maybe she actually met me by chance.While I can't get over the fact that Hazel threatened me to stay away from Katherine, I still feel like she was right in doing that.After all I broke Katherine's heart and left her all alone for six years.But it was all based on a misunderstanding, the least Katherine could do for me was to grant me access to our son and that was something she swore to never do.But she'll change her mind, she has to. The DNA results were out already, it was already confirmed no matter how long she denies it, Franklin is my son.I stared at the report again for the twentieth time since I got it and smiled.My son.I

KATHERINE'S POV "What??" Hazel asked and I could tell that the news stunned the daylights out of her.I nodded."Yes. Astra was the one who made me go out of the industry six years ago, she was the one who caused that scandal."Her brows furrowed and she frowned."But how? She doesn't have any connection to the media or anything. She also couldn't have been able to edit a photo of yours without your actual picture, right?"That got me thinking and I stared at her, the wheels in my head spinning as I realized what she was trying to point out.She was right—it was strange how she got access to my photos. But then again, she was with Alexander. Maybe she took his phone… or something.Still, how would my pictures even be on Alex’s phone? Of course, he could have them, but… I don’t know.“I don’t think so,” I said, “but according to Alexander, Astra was in contact with a gossip monger—a paparazzo known for spreading rumors. She gave him my photos to leak online.”Hazel's brow raised."Ac

ALEXANDER'S POV"She signed a contract with your company??" Mom asked, her voice raised with surprise.I had to force my face from Susan's ever-knowing glance and turned to stare at Mom."Yes, she did," for some weird reason, my tone was laced with pride and I felt my heart swell with pride as they both looked surprised that she was capable of signing a contract with a company as huge as mine."A contract? For what?""Mom, seriously?" Sue interrupted and rolled her eyes."What?""You're acting like you didn't know that she had that much potential in her. She's an artist mom. You just heard us talk about her exhibition.""And? What does an artist have to do with a tech company? Are you sure she's not just reaching out to you, Alexander? She's showing you that she's still interested."As much as I wanted to believe Mom's optimistic Statement, I knew more than anyone that it was impossible.If anything she was definitely showing off what she could do to me, that's if she was actually awa

KATHERINE'S POV I turned to look at who had the guts to land their hands on my face and all blood drained from my face as I stared at the one woman I hate.Elizabeth Shane.. my stepmother.I stared at her, unable to bring myself to say anything. Shock held my tongue captive as I stood transfixed in a spot, my hands still on my face."Mom! Thank goodness you are here. This bitch dared to step her foot inside the Shane company and I was just putting her in her place."I scoffed and shook my head, the shock finally leaving me."Shane company?" I repeated."How dare you come back here? I heard you were back in town, I heard everything you were doing, showing up at your ex-husband's company and causing chaos. I knew you would show up here next. Why can't you live a life free from chaos? I understand that you're obsessed with being on the camera but it shouldn't make you try to ruin our good reputation."I laughed, slowly at first, then more, then more again, my hands clutching my stomach

KATHERINE'S POVThe sight of Henry standing outside the building sent a jolt of unease through me. His presence here, of all places, couldn’t be a coincidence. My mind raced, trying to piece together why Alexander’s assistant would be here, especially after everything that had just transpired inside. Was Alexander keeping tabs on me? Or was this something else entirely?Hazel’s grip on my hand tightened, her eyes narrowing as she stared at Henry through the car window. “What the hell is he doing here?” she muttered, her voice low but laced with suspicion.I didn’t have an answer. My thoughts were a chaotic whirlwind, torn between the confrontation I’d just had with Elizabeth and Clara and the sudden appearance of Henry. My heart was still pounding from the adrenaline of standing up to my stepmother, and now this? It felt like the universe was testing me, pushing me to my limits.“Let’s go,” I said quietly, my voice steadier than I felt. “We’ll deal with this later.”Hazel nodded, but
