My Billionaire Ex's Biggest Regret
Lilian's life shattered on their third wedding anniversary when she walked in to see her husband, Chris, embracing his ex-girlfriend, whom he had promised to move on from, passionately. The injury worsened upon discovering that she was carrying his child. Chris had secretly ensured that Lilian remained on birth control because he didn't want to have a child with her, despite being ready for parenthood, a decision that devastated Lilian, who longed for a family. She was not treated as a partner but rather as a mere convenience and placeholder in his life.
During an intense disagreement, Chris slapped her causing her to tumble down the stairs. The fall completely shattered her emotional and physical well-being, challenging her views on marriage, love, and trust. However, determined and steadfast, Lilian vowed to protect herself from his lies and control, ending her connection with the man who had brought her great pain.
Chris returned with a strong determination to regain her love just as she was beginning to rebuild her life. He refused to let her go, expressing his realization of his deep love for her. His newfound passion for her was both confusing and infuriating. At the same time, a mysterious stranger entered her life—a man whose quiet admiration for her had endured from the shadows. He offered a love untainted by deceit, a fresh start filled with genuine respect and devotion.
Now, Lilian faces an impossible choice: Does she risk her heart again on the man who shattered it, believing his promises of change and redemption?

Chapter: Chapter 152The morning was impossibly quiet.Sunlight crept across Lilian’s living room, tracing soft gold over the floor, her shoes, and the small suitcase by the door. The air itself seemed to pause—waiting.Lilian stood before the mirror, fastening a delicate necklace around her throat. She stared at her reflection for a long moment—not because she doubted, but because she finally knew.This woman—with scars, with memories, with breath still trembling—had come back to life.A soft knock.Jack stood in the doorway, dressed in a simple dark shirt, sleeves rolled up, badge clipped to his belt—but today, he was not just a detective.He was the man who once stood between her and death.The man who guarded without demanding.Who stayed without asking for repayment.He hesitated. “Are you ready?”Lilian smiled gently. “For the first time in a long time… yes.”They walked out together, leaving the door unlocked—she would never again live behind cages she didn’t build.*********The courthouse felt

Chapter: Chapter 151The city had begun to breathe again.Weeks had passed since the explosion. The news cycle, desperate for new meat, moved on to elections, celebrity scandals, and stock crashes. But for those who lived the story—not watched it—life hadn’t returned to “normal.”Normal was gone.What they had now was… something different.Something raw.Something real.*********Lilian walked through the park near her apartment, clutching a warm paper cup between her palms. Joggers passed. Children laughed. Dogs barked at pigeons—life’s orchestra continuing without apology.Her steps were slow—not because her body was weak, but because she was learning to listen again.To herself.To her heart.To silence.The wind pulled at her hair, sweeping curls across her cheek. She closed her eyes—one breath at a time.Some days, healing felt like a victory.Other days—like climbing a hill barefoot.Today… was somewhere in between.“Lilian.”Her eyes opened.Jack Macon stood a few feet away.The man wasn’t loud—not

Chapter: Chapter 150The city didn’t wake up gently the next morning. It rose to chaos—buzzing phones, screaming headlines, news presenters breathing into microphones like preachers of disaster.“Explosion in Industrial District—Three Suspects Dead, One Critical!”“Corporate Scandal: Rita Adibo Confirmed Deceased—Connection to Chris Newton Under Investigation.”“Massive Conspiracy Unraveled—Love Affair, Betrayal, Blood Trails.”Every media house feasted.But for the people at the center, it wasn’t news. It was heavy. It was personal.*********Chris Newton sat alone in a silent interrogation room.His once immaculate white shirt was crumpled, his sleeves rolled up, his expensive wristwatch replaced with cold metal cuffs. His hair—a signature slicked-back style—now fell messily across his forehead. He stared blankly at the two-way mirror, eyes swollen and red.It had taken less than twelve hours for everything to crumble.Detective Morrow entered, slow and emotionless. He dropped a file onto the steel tabl

Chapter: Chapter 149The air tasted like fear.The old underground warehouse—once Darcy’s secret hideout—smelled of rust, fuel, and damp concrete. Concrete pillars towered like silent witnesses, and broken crates lay everywhere, remnants of something darker that once lived there. A baby-blue light flickered from a half-dead fluorescent bulb overhead, casting long haunted shadows that danced across the floor.Rita stood at the center of it all.Her hair, once immaculate and styled to perfection, now clung to her forehead in sweat. Her makeup—smudged, streaked, defeated—betrayed that the confident woman who engineered lives from behind screens and whispers… was now cornered, exposed. Her hands trembled, yet her chin remained raised, defiant.Behind her, stacked unevenly like a careless grave, were metal containers stenciled with faded warnings:HIGH EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL – PROPERTY OF DARCY INDUSTRIES.Explosives. Enough to turn this entire building—and half the surrounding street—into smoke.Kelvin, Lilian, a

Chapter: Chapter 148A metallic clang echoed across the chamber as the vault fully locked into place. The scent of cold steel and seawater settled into the air—sharp, metallic, and cruel.Jack stepped forward.He had seen death before, chased monsters across alleyways and penthouses…But nothing in twenty years of police work prepared him for this.The cavern opened wider beneath them—a cathedral of syndicate power, its heart beating with flickering screens and vault-like chambers.This was Darcy’s endgame.Even dead, he ruled.Rita straightened despite her handcuffs—her lips curling.“You all thought Darcy ran a gang,” she said softly.“No. He built a marketplace. Information. Women. Power. And Lilian… is the most expensive asset yet.”Kelvin’s fists clenched.“You’re insane.”“No,” Rita whispered, “I’m inevitable.”*********Metal grates extended, forming a walkway above the black water, leading toward the glass cell where Lilian hung suspended in drugged stillness.Jack forced himself forward, bullet

Chapter: Chapter 147Silence.Not true silence—more like the ringing void that exists only after a world ends. When Lilian opened her eyes, all she saw was white at first, as if the universe had been erased and was still deciding whether to put her back.Then the white faded.Reality returned as smoke, debris, and blood.She was lying on the marble floor of the Newton Foundation lobby. But the lobby was no longer a lobby—it was a graveyard. Glass panels hung like torn wings, shattered furniture lay scattered, and a fire alarm shrieked through the haze like an animal in pain.Bodies moved. Some crawled. Some didn’t.Lilian tried to sit up but her head pounded like a war drum. She touched her temple and came away with red.Memory crashed back—the charity gala, Chris showing up unexpectedly, the confrontation, Rita’s cold smile,and her hand—pressing that small black detonator device.And everything went white.Lilian staggered to her knees.“Help…” she croaked—but her throat was raw, broken.A shape moved

His Broken Vow

Chapter: Knowing Me Knowing YouBella’s entire body went rigid.She had almost made it to the door.Almost.Dave Stark’s voice, low and steady, cut through the room like a blade.“I don’t remember giving you permission to leave.”Her heart lurched violently in her chest.For a moment, Bella simply stood there with her hand still on the doorknob, frozen in place like a child caught stealing sweets.Slowly—painfully slowly—she turned around.Dave was watching her.He stood behind the massive desk, a marker still resting loosely between his fingers. His dark eyes were calm, almost unreadable, but there was a sharp glint of curiosity in them.Bella swallowed.Hard.Her mind scrambled for an excuse—any excuse—that didn’t involve admitting she had been hiding behind his cabinet like some jealous spy.Unfortunately, her brain had apparently decided to abandon her in this moment of crisis.Her mouth opened.Nothing came out.The silence stretched.Dave tilted his head slightly, studying her as if she were some rare creature

Chapter: Secret FlameThe corridor outside Dave Stark’s private office was unusually quiet.Bella moved slowly down the dimly lit hallway, her soft footsteps barely making a sound against the polished marble floor. The mansion at night had a different atmosphere—quieter, heavier, like it was holding secrets behind every wall.She had not intended to come here.After leaving Sandra’s room earlier, sleep refused to return. Her mind had been restless, replaying the events of the previous night over and over again. Dave’s voice. His touch. The mark on her skin that still tingled whenever she thought about it.So she wandered.And somehow, her wandering had brought her here.Bella paused when she noticed faint light leaking from beneath Dave Stark’s office door.The door wasn’t completely closed.Curiosity stirred in her chest.Before she could stop herself, she stepped closer.From where she stood, Bella couldn’t clearly see inside, but she caught the faint outline of a feminine silhouette. The woman had long

Chapter: Silent FireBella still hadn’t completed her transformation.That realization sat heavily in her chest as she leaned against the cool marble railing of the Stark estate’s west balcony, watching the fading sunlight bleed into the horizon.The sky glowed in streaks of amber and violet, but Bella barely noticed its beauty.Her thoughts were elsewhere.Technically, she wasn’t wolfless anymore. The awakening had begun—her senses had sharpened, her instincts were louder, and something powerful stirred beneath her skin.But her wolf had not spoken yet.Not once.Most newly awakened werewolves described hearing their wolf’s voice immediately after the change. Some even shifted within hours.Bella had done neither.Her wolf—Tiara—remained silent.And that silence unsettled her.Bella folded her arms, exhaling slowly.Maybe something’s wrong with me.The thought surfaced again, unwelcome and stubborn.Her awakening had been chaotic. Her body had collapsed before the process finished, then her sudden heat h

Chapter: AfterglowBella didn’t wake all at once.Sleep clung to her like warm silk.She lay curled deep within the massive bed, wrapped in layers of dark satin sheets that smelled faintly of cedarwood and something darker—something distinctly masculine.Dave Stark.Even in sleep, her body recognized the scent.The bed itself felt impossibly soft, almost like drifting on clouds. Despite its enormous size, Bella had somehow managed to curl herself into the center of it like a small, tangled bundle of limbs and hair.For several long moments, her mind floated in that strange space between dreaming and waking.Her body felt heavy.Too heavy.When she shifted even slightly, her muscles protested with dull aches that traveled down her spine and legs.Bella groaned softly, burying her face deeper into the pillows.Why did she feel like she had run through the forest all night?Then the memories came back.Not gently.Not gradually.They crashed into her mind all at once.The heat.The restless ache in her bod

Chapter: Marked FlameBella had never felt anything like this before.The moment Dave Stark touched her, something deep inside her awakened.Not just her wolf.Something far more dangerous.She stood near the edge of the bed, her breathing uneven as the Alpha King’s presence surrounded her like a storm closing in. The dim lighting of the room painted shadows across his broad frame, making him look even larger than usual.Dave Stark wasn’t simply a man.He was power.Authority.A force that commanded obedience even from the wildest wolves.And yet right now, his attention was fixed entirely on her.Bella swallowed hard as she watched him.Ever since he had kissed her earlier, her body had been restless. Every nerve felt alive, humming with anticipation.Her wolf paced beneath her skin, whispering the same thing over and over.Him.Dave stepped closer.Slow.Deliberate.The mattress dipped slightly when he sat down, his gaze never leaving her face.“You’re shaking,” he said quietly.Bella tried to steady her

Chapter: Burning EdgeDave Stark did not move.Bella’s words still hung between them like a spark in dry grass.Claim me.For a moment, the powerful Alpha simply stared at her.The room was dim, lit only by the soft amber glow of a bedside lamp. Outside, the restless howls of wolves echoed across the estate grounds, but inside the chamber the tension felt even louder.Bella’s breathing was uneven.Her chest rose and fell as though every breath cost effort. Her fingers still gripped the front of Dave’s shirt, and her eyes—those stormy silver eyes that had changed ever since her wolf awakened—burned with a need she barely understood.Dave swallowed slowly.“You don’t know what you’re asking,” he said quietly.Bella shook her head stubbornly.“I do,” she insisted, though her voice trembled. “Everything inside me feels like it’s… tearing apart. My wolf—she won’t stop.”Dave knew that feeling.The awakening of a wolf was never easy.But Bella’s transformation had been chaotic from the start. Something about her
