Billionaire's Regret
HE ASKED ME TO DIE FOR THE WOMAN HE LOVED. SO I DID
His grandfather forced him to marry me after one terrible night, But he brought his lover into our home and made me invisible in my own marriage.
I thought if I loved him hard enough, he'd finally see me.
Then I got pregnant.
The same night I planned to tell him about our baby, Jeff came home with a request that shattered my world: Irene needed a heart transplant, and he expected me to donate mine.
He was asking me to die. To sacrifice myself and our unborn child for a woman who'd stolen my story and his heart.
That night, Claire Anderson disappeared forever.
Five years later, I returned as Amber Sterling…a powerful CEO who's everything Jeff once dismissed. Elegant. Ruthless. Untouchable. And determined to take back everything he stole from me.
But revenge gets complicated when Jeff discovers I'm alive.
Even more complicated when he meets our son.
And impossibly complicated when I realize the man who wanted me dead is now desperate to win me back.
He destroyed me once. Now he's begging for a second chance.
But some hearts can't be transplanted…they have to be earned.
---
A gripping tale of betrayal, survival, and the power of becoming unbreakable. This is a second-chance romance with a strong heroine who refuses to stay a victim.

Chapter: Chapter 181Jeff got home to find Zane already dressed for school.The nanny had done his hair, straightened his collar, packed his bag by the door, everything in place the way it should be on an ordinary morning, except nothing about this morning was ordinary and Zane's face told him that before a single word passed between them.Zane gave no reaction when he saw him.He just sat at the kitchen table with his hands in his lap and his eyes fixed on some point past Jeff's shoulder, he did not smile and he did not scowl, he simply looked through him.Jeff stood in the doorway for a long moment staring at the boy he took as his son, a product of Irene's betrayal and he swallowed.He told himself none of this was Zane's fault, said it silently, and over and over again."Hey buddy." He said finally. "Are you okay?"Zane looked at him and the first reaction Jeff got was Zan's brow furrowing."Did you get mummy out from that jail?" His voice was flat, direct, a question that had clearly been sitting in

Chapter: Chapter 181Claire came downstairs at six and Jeff was already awake.He was sitting up on the couch with the blanket folded beside him and his elbows on his knees, his eyes were on the floor and he looked like a man who had spent the night in the same way she had, lying in the dark and just staring at the ceiling.He looked up when she came in and neither of them spoke immediately.Claire doesn't even know what to say so she went to the kitchen and made coffee and came back with two cups. She sat in the armchair across from him and set one on the table in front of him and he picked it up and took a sip.After a while Jeff said quietly, "I need to apologise properly, again and again. Not the way I did last night on your doorstep. Properly.""Stop already with the apologies Jeff." Claire said."Let me say it." He replied. "Please."She held her cup and shrugged.He looked at his coffee for a moment and then looked at her directly."I wasted years." He said. "I was cruel to you in ways I am still a

Chapter: Chapter 180Jeff sat in his car outside the hospital for a long time with his hands on the wheel and the engine off because he could not make himself drive anywhere yet and he was still completely shaken about Irene's revelation.He thought about Zane's face.The way he used to press himself against Jeff's chest whenever he is distressed and how he usually held on with both fists, the way he said Daddy I'm scared with a fever burning through him, the way he had laughed in the back seat of a car about a sister he was having soon, six years loving a child because Jeff considered him his son and six goddamn years of living in a lie.His heart was aching so bad, he had no one else to blame but himself for his foolishness, his grandfather warned him about Irene, he never liked Irene but he was too stupid.A sob broke out of his lips and he angrily banged his hands severally against the steering."Damn you Irene!" He yelled in anguish as a tear escaped from his eye."How much more am I going to regret f

Chapter: Chapter 179Irene's smirk did not leave her face.She looked at Claire and then at Jeff and the smirk widened into something that had genuine pleasure in it, the pleasure of a woman who had been waiting a very long time to say something and had finally arrived at the moment."Zane." She cocked her head and said the name with relish.The room went very quiet."Zane is Matt's son." She said it clearly and without hurry. "He has always been Matt's son. From the very first day."Jeff stared at her and his legs threatened to give way.He did not speak because he was so furious that he was choking on it.He stood at the foot of the bed and glared hard at Irene, the colour of his face changed slowly, not all at once, but gradually, and Claire watched it change and felt the full weight of what was happening in the room.A part of her pitied him, he had been living with both Matt and Irene's son without knowing it.How rotten can a person be? Irene is that rotten to the core.Irene looked at Jeff's face a

Chapter: Chapter 178Claire walked into the hospital room at the exact moment the doctor finished speaking.She caught the last words just as she pushed the door open, we were unable to save the baby, and she saw Jeff standing at the foot of the bed, saw his face and then the doctor's face and she understood everything before anyone said another word.Jeff did not move when the news landed.He stood absolutely still with his hands clenched at his sides and his face doing nothing at all, not grief, not shock, just the complete stillness of a man who had been hit by something so large his body had not yet decided how to respond to it.The doctor said something else, something about Irene being stable, something about blood loss and recovery, and Jeff stood through it, he was hearing it but his brain was unable to comprehend, unable to go past the word, "we were unable to save the baby."He said nothing and the doctor left and the room was very quiet.Irene was in the bed with monitors attached and her face

Chapter: Chapter 177Callum Harte stood for the cross examination and every person in the courtroom felt the shift.The morning had belonged to the prosecution. Kirby, Mendez, the phone records, the bank transfers, all of it laid out with the precise unhurried confidence of a case that knew exactly what it was. Now it was Harte's turn and he stood with his quiet voice and his carefully constructed calm and the courtroom watched him the way people watched something they were not entirely sure about."Detective Huang." He said. "The recordings obtained by the private investigator. You described them as central to the prosecution's case.""They are significant evidence." Huang said."The investigator was paid by Claire Clark. The alleged victim.""Yes.""Placed deliberately inside my client's circle with the intention of gathering information against her.""He was employed to document criminal activity." Huang said. "Which he did.""He was employed by a woman with a direct personal interest in the outcome of
