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 33Lilian's eyes were fixed on the area just past Doris's head, her mind wandering to a distant place - a vague yet tangible reality. Doris' voice startled her back to reality, akin to a rap on a delicate windowpane.“I’m Doris,” she reiterated, her tone soft yet firm.Lilian closed and opened her eyes. What was it that had been disturbing me recently? It was occurring again—visions or imaginations looping around and about, like a photograph she could not remember testing out for. Today, however, everything was so real."Hello?" Doris waved a greeting with the palm of her hand. "I don't think you heard what I was saying.Lilian sighed as she emerged from her trance. "Apologies… I got lost in my thoughts." "What was your name again?"“Doris,” she said softly. “Actually… I’m dating your cousin, Kelvin.”A cold silence fell between them. Lilian stared at her, expression unreadable. Then, her lips parted, laced with disappointment and tired resolve.“I see. Alright. We’re done here. Please le

Chapter: Chapter 32The initial sensation that Lilian experienced was one of relief.Waking up alone in bed gave her a dream-like calmness, as though breathing softly after the tension of waiting for the blow which never arrived, a long breath was drawn out. Her heart, which had been stimulated by runaway fragments of an elusive reality, was slowly settling. She glanced about the room, her thudding heart thudding just a mite harder, for the presence of a man by the door or the rustle of bedclothes rising behind her. But there isn't anyone. She is alone.She sat up slowly, a low moan escaping her lips as the pain in her head increased.That was only a dream, she told herself bitterly.It couldn't have been her bed that Chris was in, cradling her like treasure. It had to be the tablets. The mix of drugs that the hospital administered to her must have fueled that silly, morose hallucination.She hauled herself up and tried to stand, but had to reach out and clutch the nightstand to balance as the room tilte

Chapter: Chapter 31Chris stood at the end of her hospital bed, confused."I want you to leave, Chris."His expression changed. "What do you mean?"Lilian was composed. "You don't care about me, so why are you here? Go home to your Rita."He sighed."You're trying to pick a fight, but I don't have that time," he said to her. "Let's just get you discharged and take you home.""Take me home?" She laughed bitterly. "I don't need help from a man who despises me! Just leave, Chris. We both know you’d rather be anywhere else.”Something in him snapped. He frowned.“Really? You don’t need my help?” he said. “Who are you going to call? You have no friends, Lilian.”She refused to let the words cut deep, even though they did. Instead, she responded coolly, “Jack. Jack can take me home.”The mention of Jack's name changed everything. Chris’s face turned to stone."Not as long as I’m alive," he shouted.She stared in surprise at his sudden outburst."You are presented with two options," he remarked. "Either I drop

Chapter: Chapter 30There was a brief moment of silence as Rita stood by the bed, eyes shining with triumph and hatred.Rita's fictitious innocence was blatant when she uttered the words, "I'm not doing anything, just saying the truth as it is." "I hope the gang doesn't kill you first. I want you to see me take everything away from you, just like you did to me."Lilian clenched her fists beneath the hospital sheet. Rita's defiance lit a fire within her, each word adding fuel to the flames of her hidden fury."You're a foul slut, Rita," Lilian breathed poisonously. "Just remember this: you mean nothing to me, and you always will mean nothing, no matter if you marry Chris or not."Rita's features twisted, one of arrogance yielding to one of fury. Her eyes became sharp and a scornful smile flickered onto her lips."It's okay. at least it's my name." "Chris will be screaming at night," she announced as she approached. "I'll get him to fill me up with his seed, and once he does, he'll forget all about you fas

Chapter: Chapter 29She held the phone to her ear, her bruised fingers trembling."I missed you, sister." "You haven't spoken to me for some time," William answered quietly and sorrowfully.She shut her eyes to fend off the sting of tears."I apologize, my love," she murmured gently, pushing the falsehood past her lips. “I lost my phone.”It was a poor excuse. She knew he’d see right through it, but what could she say? That someone had tried to blow her to pieces? That the charred wreck of her car now sat behind a police barricade as evidence of an attempted murder?There was silence on the other end—brief but heavy.“Can we do a video call? Are you okay? I want to see you,” William asked, voice tinged with urgency and something deeper… fear.He knew. Not everything, but enough.“I… not right now, dear,” she replied, adjusting the oxygen tubes across her face. “They don’t allow video calls where I am.”Another lie.“That’s a stupid rule!” he yelled. “Who makes such stupid rules?”She bit her lip and let

Chapter: Chapter 28Chris stood in the hospital corridor, his eyes on Rita and Kelvin. Rita was calm, but Kelvin's disheveled state gave away the restlessness inside."Has she woken up?" Kelvin's voice was barely above a whisper, laden with concern.Chris shook his head. "No."Rita stepped forward. "You need to head home, Chris. Take a shower and change clothes. You look like a zombie."Chris's jaw tightened. "I'm not leaving, Rita.""You're no good to her or anyone if you collapse from exhaustion," Rita retorted.Kelvin interjected, "Rita's right, Chris. I promise we won't leave her even for a second."Chris glanced at Lilian through the glass window. She remained motionless. "Okay then, but don't leave her side. She was attacked; who knows if these criminals would return to finish the job."Kelvin nodded solemnly. Rita's eyes softened. "She'll be okay. Lilian is too stubborn to surrender to death," she said with a faint smile, pressing a gentle kiss to Chris's lips.Chris nodded and left. The ki

Chapter: Tangled Fate“Well, hello, Dave. Hello, Bella. It’s nice to finally meet you… like this,” a male voice rang out with unmissable amusement. His voice oozed mischief, and one didn’t need a name tag to guess — it had to be Morgan.“Hi, Bella,” said a girl with a gentle, open smile. Her warmth was genuine — that was Sandra.A warmer, softer voice greeted her with a gentler "Hello." Ben.Bella said a subdued "Hi" into Dave's chest, pressing deeper into the fabric of his shirt as her own heart thudded like a war drum. She could not make herself lift her eyes to any of them. Dave's chest rose beneath her cheek, his laughter gentle but reassuring“Sugar,” he whispered, his voice deep and amused, “are you ever going to come out and meet everyone properly?”Bella shook her head quickly, eyes still shut. There was too much to process — too many strangers, too many eyes. But in a sudden gesture, Dave's soft, commanding hand went to her head, his palm cupping her crown with a gentle pressure. He drew her in, pr

Chapter: Tangled HeartsBella's lips opened, and her eyelids closed as Dave kissed her. The kiss began soft and gentle but intensified as he deepened it, burning them with a burst of energy. His hand around her waist held her pressed against him, and her fingers pushed against his smooth hair. Her heart raged, begging to burst forth from her chest.They pulled away at the same time, gasping for air, their gazes fixed, and breathing hard. Bella tiptoed for more, and Dave eagerly leaned down to capture her lips again.Their lips moved together, urgency building. Dave's tongue found entrance into her mouth, their tongues tangling and teasing. His kiss intoxicated her."Sugar," he moaned. His mouth traveled down her jaw and neck. She rolled her hips, and he growled.He pulled his face out of hers, gasping for breath. She sensed his thumping heart next to hers. Her hair was mussed, her lips puffy, red-looking. Longings scrambled his brain when he saw her."Good heavens," he gasped, running his hands through rump

Not in this way.“Stop!” she exclaimed, fighting desperately.Her defiance only appeared to arouse him even more. His lips clung to her neck, his hold intensifying.Then—boom!The force of the blow threw Marcus backward. He collided with the other wall and collapsed to the floor.A murmur spread among the assembled students.Dave loomed above him, his face giving nothing away. His eyes were jet black, unsettlingly void of spirit, and his posture exuded primal, perilous strength. The air in the corridor grew heavy, electrified by his rage.Bella’s heart raced.Dave bent down, his hand grasping around Marcus’s neck. With ease, he raised him from the ground. Marcus gasped for breath, his arm dangling loosely.Three hybrids navigated through the crowd. Morgan and Ben grabbed Marcus, holding onto his shoulders and arms.

Chapter: Stolen GlancesSunlight streamed in the window in the morning when Bella was standing in front of the mirror and evaluating her appearance. Something was wrong. Her skin was softer, glowing as if it had been kissed with moonlight. Her brown eyes were no longer dull. They were mesmerizing, hypnotic, and more radiant. Her eyelashes were longer, outlining them with deep, rich curves, and her eyebrows developed a stunning arch, dramatic yet subtle. Even her fuller, redder lips were glossy as if she had just wet them.She stroked her hair, enjoying the way the curls fell in a way never before, darker than ever, flashing light in hypnotic waves. Her body also altered, subtly, noticeably different. Her waist was more defined, hips more curvy, bust promising cleavage she never did before. Her jeans did not fit in the same manner before, the waistband a closer band than she was ever accustomed to.What's wrong with her?A frown tugged at the edge of her lip.

Chapter: Marked against WillBella's stomach twisted as she entered the house and half-packed boxes scattered everywhere in the living room caught her eye. Some were tidily stacked and arranged for the move, but most of their belongings were still in their original positions. Her chest sank with a feeling of falling. Her mom had taken extra effort—packed and planned—but something was amiss. Too hurried. Too excited.She walked in the direction of the kitchen, hoping her mother would be rapidly filling up more, but instead discovered her sitting at the old wooden table, blankly staring out of the window. A steaming mug of tea rested in her hands, undrunk. The atmosphere surrounding her was thick and nearly oppressive."Mom?" Bella called softly.Her mother's eyes closed hard for a moment before she swung around to Bella, wearing a fake smile that did not touch her eyes. "Wow, you have returned."The forced cheerfulness in her tone sent danger signals racing through Bella's mind. Something was amiss."Mom, is somet

Chapter: Soul TiesAndy bolted out of the room, his exit swift and desperate. No one could blame him. If she had the choice, Bella would have done the same. But that option wasn’t hers anymore.Morgan slapped Dave reassuringly on the back, his face unreadable, and Sandra smiled uncertainly, knowingly at Bella as she departed. Ben stood longer, a twinkle of amusement in his eyes. His slow, widening smile was close to being lazy and untroubled. Winking roguishly, he clouted Dave on the back and departed, leaving Bella and Dave in solitude.The silence hung heavy and oppressive."Hi," Bella growled cautiously, smoothing the hem of her blouse into position.Dave didn't say anything. He just stood there, his intense eyes burning her.He was beautiful today. Dark wash jeans. A black T that hugged his body like a second skin. A cool leather jacket, scuffed just enough to give the impression he didn't care. His dark, rich hair, perpetually slightly undone in an intentional but careless way, accentuated his shar
