“Who is it?” I asked softly, hearing someone at my door. It was a repitition of loud knocks one after the other, as though the person really wanted to have the door broken down.

I was in the kitchen, just about to finish up some coffee, but the knocking pulled me away.

It didn’t sound like Rita. If it was her, she would have called or just knocked gently and waited for me to open up the door for her.

No, this was different—persistent, almost aggressive. I set down my mug and walked slowly to the door. I was gentle as I slowly peeped through the peephole in case it was going to be someone that wanted to hurt me.

I peeked through the peephole. And there I finally saw the person—Rose. What the hell?

How did she find my house? Why would she come to my house if it's not trouble she is definitely looking for?

I opened the door just a little.

"Who is it?" I asked again, as if I didn't already know who was the intruder.

She stepped inside without waiting for my permission. Such audacity. S

  • Mr Billionaire's Regret: Ex-wife Returns With His Triplets.   Chapter 164: Helen's POV

    The moment his face flickered through the crowd, something inside me snapped—like a wine glass tipped off a table. Silent at first. Then shattering.It couldn’t be.But it was him. Ashton.He was standing there, just past the velvet ropes, past the glow and haze of the VVIP lounge. Half-shadowed by the dim lighting, half-exposed by the fury in his eyes. I wasn’t even sure when he got here. But he was. And I knew that look.I knew it better than anyone ever could.That was the look he wore when he lost his Dad. When we fought in the rain. When I told him I needed space and didn’t say how long. It was a look that meant something inside him had broken open.And he was watching me.Me.Laughing.And kissing Jace.God. That kiss.We hadn’t planned it. Jace leaned in at the exact moment I was turning toward him. It was more of a reflex than romance. And yes, maybe we’d been talking a little too close all night. But I wasn’t thinking about kisses or Ashton or anything at that moment.And t

    Dan was still talking. Something about work, or his new place, or the girl he walked in with—I wasn't really paying attention anymore. My thoughts were somewhere else, drowning in the rhythm of the bass and the weight in my chest. The water helped, sure, but not enough. Not enough to numb the ache or erase the image of Helen in the crowd. Or someone who looked just like her. Or maybe it really was her.I didn’t know anymore.But then I heard it.A voice.Her voice.Clear as day. Smooth. Familiar. Effortless.Laughter. Just a little.Like wind chimes I hadn’t heard in years.I froze. My glass slipped slightly from my hand, and I straightened like someone had hit a nerve."Wait."Dan looked up. "What?"I blinked and turned toward the direction the sound had come from."I just heard her voice," I said. Louder than I meant to. "I swear to God I just heard Helen."Dan winced, clearly not ready to go down that road again. "Come on, man, we just talked about this. Could've been anyone. Mu

    "I'm out of here," I muttered under my breath, slipping off the barstool like it had suddenly turned into hot coal. The ice in my glass had melted, the whiskey watered down, and so was my will to stay in this damn club.The music was still blasting, loud, thumping, chaotic. Bodies still moved like they were possessed by the beat. But all I could think about was her.Helen.God. I didn’t even know if it was really her I saw. Could’ve been someone who just looked like her. But something about the posture, the hair, the way she shifted closer to that guy — yeah, that did it. It dug into me like a hook, pulling something raw to the surface. I couldn’t breathe in here anymore. I couldn't think.So I headed toward the exit, the heavy bass pounding in my skull like a second heartbeat. My steps weren’t exactly steady — the whiskey I’d had earlier was starting to turn on me, mixing with the ache in my chest. I pushed through the crowd, ignoring the flashes of smiles, the perfume trails, the

    "You okay?"Jace’s voice pulled me out of my spiraling thoughts once again. His hand was still gently wrapped around mine, warm and steady, like a tether keeping me grounded.I nodded quickly, too quickly, and added a small laugh that even I didn’t believe. "Yeah. I’m good. Just... got lost in my head for a second."His brows furrowed slightly as he studied my face, searching for the truth behind my shaky smile. "You sure? I’m picking up on something. If you’re not cool being here, we can leave. I won’t take it personally."I looked at him, hesitated for a second, then sighed like I was reluctantly letting a secret slip."It’s not you," I said, voice softer now. "It’s this place."He tilted his head. "What about it?"I hesitated, then leaned in slightly, like I didn’t want anyone else to hear the lie I was about to sell."Years ago, I came here with a few friends," I began. I lowered my eyes just enough to add some tension to my tone. "There was this guy—some random dude who bought me

    I didn’t know what to do.My heart was pounding like a drum in my chest. The music from the speakers was loud, bodies swayed around us, lights flashing across the dance floor, but all I could see was him.Ashton.Sitting at the bar like he owned the damn place.What the hell was he doing here?He wasn’t supposed to be here. Not tonight. Not at this club. Not when I was just trying to escape everything he reminded me of.I could barely keep my feet from trembling. I blinked a few times, thinking maybe I was hallucinating. Maybe it was just someone who looked like him.But no.It was him.The way he sat. The sharp jawline. The shoulders that held stress like armor. The subtle way he scanned the room like he was above it all. Yeah. That was Ashton.My throat went dry.I shifted closer to Jace, but my mind was still racing.Was Ashton watching? Did he see me yet? What would he think? What would he do?Why am I even thinking like this?We’re not together. He has no right to even have an o

    I pulled away from him slowly, heart racing, breath uneven, guilt gnawing at my insides like I’d just committed a crime. Because maybe I had. Not legally. But emotionally.Jace leaned back just a little, his eyes scanning mine with worry. He wasn’t upset. He wasn’t angry. He just looked... confused. And a little hurt.“Hey,” he said softly, brushing a thumb across the back of my hand. “Are you okay?”I nodded quickly, then added, “Yeah. I’m okay.”He tilted his head. “Are you sure?”“I just… I'm fine… I promise”His features relaxed a little, but the concern was still there. “Alright then,” he said gently. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to push anything. That was on me.”I quickly shook my head. “No, no, you didn’t do anything wrong. I kissed you back. I just—I got in my head.”He nodded, squeezing my hand lightly. “I get it. Seriously. I shouldn’t have gone there without checking first. I was caught in the moment.”“It was a nice moment,” I admitted, giving him a small smile.He chuckled
