Too Late for Sorry, Mr. Billionaire (Chasing my Wife Back)
ADRIAN Cole had it all. Wealth, power, a beautiful wife, and a daughter who adored him. But one mistake… one affair… and one phone call from his mistress was enough to shatter the perfect life he thought he controlled.
When Amelia walked away, she didn’t just leave her husband behind, she carried a secret of her own, a secret that would change everything.
Now Adrian is left chasing shadows of the woman who once loved him, realizing too late that money and pride can’t heal the wounds of betrayal. But the road back to Amelia’s heart isn’t just blocked by her pain, it’s poisoned by the jealousy of her own sister, whose hidden hatred runs deeper than anyone could imagine.
Caught between regret, family betrayal, and the fight for the woman he once took for granted, Adrian must prove that his love is real this time. But what if Amelia’s forgiveness is the one thing he can never buy back?
A story of betrayal, heartbreak, and redemption. Will love survive when it’s already too late for sorry?

Chapter: 020THAT statement caught Vivian off guard. For a moment, she just stared at him, her eyes searching his face for some crack in his resolve. Then she let out a scoff, sharp and bitter, which slowly melted into a laugh, a sad, hollow laugh that carried more pain than humor.“Wow,” she breathed, folding her arms tightly across her chest. “So… you don’t even love me?”Adrian dropped the folded paper onto the bed and turned fully to face her. His voice was calm and deliberate.“I love you,” he said. “But I’m a married man.” He laid heavy emphasis on the word ‘married’, as though to drive home a truth she couldn’t ignore. “There are certain boundaries I can’t cross.”Vivian shook her head, her hair swaying with the sharpness of her movement. “Mm mm… no. You don’t love me enough. Because if you did, you wouldn’t make me feel like I’m nothing.” She turned away from him, her face hardening, her shoulders stiff, her arms still tightly folded.Adrian shifted closer, closing the small distance betw

Chapter: 019THE soft glow of amber lights bounced across the bar as the three friends settled into their usual corner table. The place was alive but not rowdy, low music drifting from hidden speakers, clinking glasses, and laughter from a group of young men at the far end. A waiter approached, laying down a bucket of ice and three tall glasses.“Your usual?” the waiter asked, already reaching for a bottle of scotch.“Yeah, line them up,” Jakes said, loosening his tie and leaning back with an easy grin. Adrian gave a small nod, scrolling briefly through his phone before placing it face down on the table. Leonard was already drumming his fingers impatiently, eager for the first round.The waiter poured generously, the golden liquid catching the light, before stepping back with a polite smile.“Ah,” Leonard exhaled, lifting his glass. “Finally, something to wash off the stress of this week.”“To the weekend,” Jakes added, clinking glasses with the others.They took a sip in unison, the warmth settli

Chapter: 018THE late morning sun spilled lightly across the sky when Adrian pulled up in front of Vivian’s apartment complex. He honked once, sharp but not loud enough to draw unnecessary attention. Moments later, Vivian emerged, dressed in a fitted sundress that clung in all the right places, a scarf loosely tied around her neck, and oversized sunglasses hiding half her face. She carried a handbag too small to conceal anything but her phone and a tube of lipstick.Sliding into the passenger seat, she smiled faintly. “You came.”“I said I would try,” Adrian replied simply, shifting the car into gear. His eyes flicked briefly to her before returning to the road. “How are you feeling?”“A bit light-headed,” she admitted, letting her hand brush across her stomach. “But at least I don’t feel like throwing up anymore.”“Good,” he muttered, tightening his grip on the steering wheel. “Let’s just get this done quietly. The earlier we know what is wrong, the better.”The drive was tense, filled with shor

Chapter: 017THE faint glow of dawn spilled through the curtains, painting the room in soft hues of gray and gold. Amelia knelt at the bedside, her hands clasped, lips moving in quiet supplication. The steady rise and fall of Adrian’s chest on the bed behind her told her he was still lost in sleep.She whispered her final “Amen” and opened her eyes just as a sharp vibration broke the silence. Adrian’s phone lit up on the nightstand beside her. Curious, she tilted it slightly and frowned at the name flashing on the screen.The Automobile Guy.“Baby,” she called softly, giving his arm a gentle tap.He didn’t stir.She tapped again, firmer this time. He jolted awake with a start, blinking hard.“Hey, babe,” she said, pointing at the glowing screen. “The Automobile Guy is calling.”He reached out groggily, squinting at the phone before rubbing his eyes.“Why is he calling this early?” Amelia asked, her tone laced with curiosity.Adrian sighed, voice still heavy with sleep. “I told him yesterday to co

Chapter: 016SHE still didn't respond, but just kept fumbling with her phone. Amelia’s eyes narrowed. “Claire… why are you fumbling like that?”Seated at the far end of the couch, she had been battling with that phone ever since it started buzzing insistently. The screen lit up, vibrated again, but Claire’s fingers only hovered over it before pressing the side button quickly to silence it.“Nothing,” Claire muttered, forcing a weak smile as she pushed the phone face down on the couch cushion. “It is really nothing,” she added.“Nothing?” Amelia leaned back in her seat, arms folded across her chest. “You have been avoiding that call like it is poison. Who was that?”Claire laughed lightly, too lightly. “Oh, come on, Amelia. Do you have to interrogate me about every call? It is probably a wrong number, or… one of my friends just being silly.”Amelia’s gaze lingered on her, unconvinced. She knew her younger sister too well; Claire always gave herself away with that nervous giggle. “If you say so,”

Chapter: 015HE sat up, now seated across from her. His face showed that concern. What about Leonard now? He needed to be sure what he heard.“About who?” his voice cut through the silence of the bedroom, his tone carrying both worry and irritation.“Leonard,” she repeated, softer this time, her gaze dropping to her lap as though saying his name was heavy.Adrian leaned back against a pillow. He could already feel where this conversation was headed. “What about Leonard?”“Talk to him,” Amelia said, her voice barely above a whisper now.Adrian gave a short laugh that lacked humor. “Why should I talk to him?”Her eyes shot up. “Because you are his friend! Who else do you expect to do it?”The irritation in her tone made Adrian rub his forehead. “Amelia…”“No, Adrian, listen.” She leaned forward, her hands clasped tightly together. “Clara spends virtually all her days at the hospital. Do you know what that means? The doctor’s office has practically become her second home. Every week, she is in an
