Regina's POV

Their eyes met. Lingering, And just like that, another spark flared quietly in the dusty room.

Another ping.

"He's alive. But not the way you remember him."

"Ask Julia what happened to the man named Marcus."

I showed Nicholas.

His eyes narrowed. "Marcus was Julia's cousin. He managed her estates before Jeremy. Disappeared years ago."

Julia burst in moments later, furious.

"Someone's playing a dangerous game," she snapped.

"Tell me about Marcus," I said.

Her expression changed. Stone. Cold.

"He was my cousin. And he betrayed me."

"Betrayed you how?"

"He embezzled millions. Tried to burn the house down when I confronted him. I thought he died in that fire."

Nicholas and I exchanged a look.

"Julia," I said slowly. "Are you saying... Marcus may have taken my twin?"

Her hand trembled. "I don't know."

But her voice said otherwise.

Jenna returned from the archives, white as paper.

"You need to see this," she said, handing me a folder.

An adoption form. Dated a month after the f

  • Betrayed By Ex, Loved By My Billionaire Boss    Join her

    Regina's POV "Then what?"He looked me dead in the eye. "Of failing to protect her. You. Us."I placed his hand over my stomach. "Then don't. Start now.""Are you sure about this?" she asked, watching Gabriel pace.He didn't answer.He simply walked over to her tablet, tapped into a live feed. It was my house.Our bedroom.Nicholas sleeping beside me.Kimberly gasped. "You've been in their home?!"Gabriel smiled coldly. "She's living the life that was meant for me. I don't want to destroy her."He paused."I want her to know how it feels to lose it all."The next envelope came with a single item inside.Hope's name... carved into a piece of wood.Under it, a message:"You took everything from me, Regina. I'll take everything from you. One piece at a time." Nicholas went pale. Julia lost her breath.Mike cursed in five languages. But me? I didn't cry.I burned."We found a safehouse," Jenna said, tossing down photos. "Gabriel's been hiding out in a property registered under a shell co

  • Betrayed By Ex, Loved By My Billionaire Boss    The orphan

    Regina's POVEverything felt like a blur of noise and terror.Paulson's grip on me tightened as he waved the syringe like a lunatic. "One move, and this child dies before it even breathes!"Nicholas stood at the doorway, jaw locked, eyes blazing. For a split second, he looked less like a finance tycoon and more like a soldier someone who had seen too much, lost too much, and refused to lose again."Nicholas," I whispered, my body frozen. "Don't.""Put the syringe down," he said calmly. "And we walk away. You can have your escape. Just not her."Paulson's eyes twitched. "Do I look like a man who negotiates?"Then came the shift.A flicker of movement from the side. Mike.Crouched behind a cart, holding a fire extinguisher like a bat..One nod from Nicholas.Go time.Boom! the extinguisher flew, crashing into Paulson's arm. The syringe clattered to the floor.I screamed as chaos erupted. Nicholas lunged.Paulson fought back, kicking, snarling, fists flying. They crashed into the side of

  • Betrayed By Ex, Loved By My Billionaire Boss    Went Dark

    Regina’s POVI woke up to pain.It wasn’t the sharp kind that made you scream, but the dull, nauseating kind that wrapped around your skull like a vice and whispered, you survived, but barely.My eyes fluttered open to a blurry ceiling. White. Sterile. Beeping sounds echoed in the background. Hospital.I tried to sit up but I just Couldn’t.My hands were strapped down. Panic rose in my chest.“Nicholas?” My voice cracked like dry leaves. “Mike? Anyone?”The door opened. It wasn’t them. It was him.Paulson Gray.His hair had thinned. His face was harder, sharper, crueler. But those eyes? Same color as mine. Same terrifying depth.He smiled like he had all the time in the world.“Welcome back, daughter.”I nearly threw up.“What do you want?”He walked over, dragging a chair like a villain in a low-budget action movie. Sat by my side and tilted his head.“To talk. To know you. After all… I gave you life.”“And tried to take it too,” I spat.He chuckled. “Details. I needed to get your at

  • Betrayed By Ex, Loved By My Billionaire Boss    Not ready

    Regina's POVThe smell of smoke clung to everything. My jacket, hair, my soul.I stood in front of what used to be our second design warehouse, gone, reduced to black steel bones and smoldering ashes.My breath caught. "This... this was on purpose."Nicholas said nothing. He was staring at the red letters spray-painted across the burnt exterior."This is only the beginning.""What the hell does that mean?" I asked, heart pounding.Mike walked up, phone in hand, face grim. "The fire marshal says it started near the electrical room, but it wasn't faulty wiring. Someone broke in. There's signs of forced entry.""Security footage?" I asked, already dreading the answer."Wiped. Clean as a whistle."Nicholas cursed under his breath. "They knew what they were doing."I turned to him, watching the way his jaw clenched, how tightly he held himself. "You think this is about me?""I don't think," he muttered. "I know."A sick feeling curled in my stomach. "Jeremy Anderson's still in jail. Kimber

  • Betrayed By Ex, Loved By My Billionaire Boss    Under Pressure

    Regina's POVJeremy Anderson stood like the devil dressed in Versace. Polished shoes, clean-shaven jaw, and eyes that didn't know guilt if it danced naked in front of him.He was supposed to be rotting in a cell. Not waltzing into Julia's living room like he hadn't destroyed half our lives.Julia sat frozen. Her teacup didn't even clink in its saucer. Her grip? White-knuckled."You're not welcome here," Nicholas said sharply, stepping in front of me.Jeremy's smile widened. "Relax, Nicholas. I'm not here to hurt anyone.""Too late for that," I snapped.His gaze shifted to me. "Ah, Regina. You've grown into quite the woman. Strong. Bold. Just like your mother."I wanted to slap him. Right across that smug, surgically-polished cheek.But I held back.He raised both hands. "I'm here under a plea deal. I give the full story in exchange for time served and exile.""Exile?" I asked. "What are you, Napoleon?"He chuckled. "Close. Just a man who made mistakes...for love."Julia stood now, her
