All Chapters of Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

ALEXANDER'S POV Maybe it was because I felt threatened by the fact that someone else wanted her, or maybe because she looked so damn good in her tailored pants and red silk top. I don't know... All I could think of at that moment, as I saw her turning to leave, was the fact that she might go to Charles. That I would lose her again, like I did years ago, and this time around, it would be my fault—not because I was manipulated by Astra. I grabbed her arm and pulled her back to me, ignoring the widened look of surprise and fear in her eyes as I leaned in closer for a kiss. I could almost taste her... My lips were just mere inches from hers, and I was just about to... "Maybe we should..." I heard a voice interrupt, and almost as quickly as lightning, Katherine pulled herself away from my arms and stared at me, her face flushed and red. I was still out of it—distracted and annoyed as hell—as I turned my attention to the door to see who it was that dared to interrupt that precious mom

ALEXANDER'S POVThe moment I read that message, my entire body tensed. My grip on Astra’s phone tightened, my knuckles turning white as fury coursed through me."Katherine Luther and an unknown man found at the club last night."The words burned into my mind.An unknown man? Charles? Or someone else?And who the hell sent this?I forced myself to take a deep breath, trying to steady the storm raging inside me. This wasn’t just about jealousy, though that was definitely part of it. This was about control. Someone was watching Katherine. And if they were watching her, they were watching me.I handed the phone back to Astra, my voice dangerously low.“Who sent this?”She hesitated, her eyes darting away for a fraction of a second before meeting mine again. “I don’t know. It was an unknown number.”Bullshit.Astra was many things, but she wasn’t stupid. If she had received this, she knew something. And the fact that she had come here, to my office, right when Katherine and Charles were pr

KATHERINE'S POV"So, what do you plan on doing?" Charles asked, finally breaking the silence as we both sat on the car's bonnet, staring at the sky."About what?" I asked, turning to face him.The past few minutes, we've been sitting together in silence, each of us lost in our own thoughts, and I tried so hard not to think about anything. But suddenly, he was bringing everything back."The whole issue with Alexander. Are you sure you're still comfortable working with him? I mean, aside from the fact that he's your ex-husband, he's also your son's father. Do you really think you can work with him without getting any... uhm... emotions involved? Why are you working with him in the first place?"I sighed softly as he echoed the questions I've been pushing away from my thoughts since the day I realized that I would never be able to fully get over Alexander."I have to. I didn't know that I was working with him. I didn't know that he was the CEO of RodaTech. I didn't know he built a new co

ALEXANDER'S POV"What?? How..? No, no, where's the hospital?"I could barely breathe. The idea of Katherine being sick... no, being on the hospital bed made me so scared that I could hardly breathe.Funny how quickly I contradicted myself within seconds. I said I was no longer interested in her, that I was happy for her being with someone else.Why then was my heartbeat skipping so fast? Why was I getting a minor panic attack at the idea of her being in the hospital?"I don't know.""What??" I yelled, grabbing his neck tightly."I don't know where. I just...""How did you know about this?" Henry asked in a cool voice."I... I saw her leaving your company, so I decided to follow her. And... I saw an ambulance coming to carry her. That's all, I swear."An ambulance! That means it was very serious.What the hell happened?"Who was she with? Was she alone?"He shook his head**,** looking so terrified of me and the way I grabbed his neck."She wasn't alone. She was with a guy... a handsome

KATHERINE'S POV The door slammed shut behind Alexander, the sound echoing like a gunshot in the sterile hospital room. My chest tightened, my fingers gripping the sheets until my knuckles turned white. "I won’t bother you anymore." His words looped in my mind, sharp and final. This was what I wanted, wasn’t it? For him to walk away? To stop reopening old wounds? I wanted to forget everything, right? I should be happy and satisfied that he had finally decided to leave me. Then why did it feel like my ribs were cracking? Why did it hurt? Why did it feel like I would never see him again? Maybe because I was worried that he would try and do something else to me. Maybe because I was scared that he would come back for Franklin. But his last words resounded in my ears, and I knew that he meant them. Alexander was everything but a scoundrel. He was a man of his word, and if he said that he didn't want to have anything to do with me again, then he meant it. "You shouldn't have been t
