KATHERINE'S POV

The sound of the clock ticking was even far louder in my ear than it should be. I stared behind the doctor, at the giant wall clock and followed the tiny hands as it moved slower than a snail.

Something was making the table bounce so hard and I didn't realize until Alex gently squeezed my legs.

"Relax, okay? I'm sure it's nothing serious," he leaned and murmured in my ears.

Nothing serious...

Right.

If that was true then why were we seated like parents called by the Principal about a report on their child? Why was the doctor sighing as he stared at the test results in front of him?

"I'll relax when I find out why we're here," I didn't bother whispering back, my words were directed not just to Alex, but to the man directly in front of me, the cause of my panic.

Alex cleared his throat and leaned forward.

"So..? We've been here for a minute now, you haven't said anything. Why did you call us?"

He took off his glasses and stared at me first, then Alex.

"First of all, I'd

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 112 — Anywhere. Even if it’s heaven, I’ll take you there.

    ALEXANDER’S POV "Well, we're alone now, I guess," I said some seconds after Katherine left and I took the seat she sat in earlier.Franklin smiled at me and I felt that familiar warm feeling bubbling up in my heart."What do you want to do?" It was awkward, I admit it.It was the first time we were ever left alone and I had to get used to it because he might end up spending more time with me after today."Mom won't let me eat any snacks and I really want some ice cream."Oh no."Well, buddy, your mom is right. See this?" I pointed at the IV drip still connected to his hand, "this is why you can't have anything, at least for now."His face dropped and he nodded."But I really want to eat it."Oh boy."You will, I promise. But you just have to do one thing.."His eyes opened with eagerness and he stared at me."What? What? I'll do it!"That brought a smile to my lips."Will you really?""Yes, yes, what is it?""Well, you have to get better. Once you get better, I promise you I'll get

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 111 — I Can't Let You Experience It All

    ALEXANDER'S POV"Alex, I understand that you're worried about your son but it's literally just three in the morning, do you have to go there now?" Henry's groggy voice asked.I couldn't sleep all through the night and the idea of going back home didn't sit well with me even though I told Katherine that I was going to.Henry, though grudgingly, agreed to stay over in the office with me and since then have been bothered by my pacing in the office."I don't feel comfortable, Henry."He grunted and raised his head from the sofa."But Katherine is with him, no? Do you want her to feel like you don't trust her enough with her own son, who, might I had, she took care of alone for six years?"That made me pause and I turned to his direction.He was right. If I decide to go back to the hospital this early even after letting Katherine stay with Franklin, she might think that I don't trust her.I can't let her think that, not especially when it's difficult enough to get her to trust me again."

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 110 — Don’t shut me out, Katherine. Not this time.

    KATHERINE’S POVThe moment I stepped into Franklin’s room, the faint beeping of the monitor beside his bed yanked my heart into another round of anxiety. I hated that sound. Each steady beep was supposed to reassure me that he was alive, stable, but instead it reminded me that my son was lying there because something inside of him wasn’t right.He looked too small in that bed, too pale, his little arms sticking out from the thin hospital blanket like fragile sticks. The IV tube taped to his wrist seemed larger than his hand. I wanted to cry again, to break down the way my body was begging me to, but I couldn’t. Not here. Not in front of him. Not with Alex watching.Alex closed the door quietly behind us and didn’t say anything. He just walked over to Franklin’s bed, slid a chair close, and sat down. His hands folded on his knees, tense, like he was holding himself back from reaching out. I noticed the way his eyes softened the moment they landed on Franklin. For a second, I almost for

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 108 — I Want to Live. I Want to Breathe!

    KATHERINE'S POV My eyes trailed behind Alex and fell on a face I desperately missed.Hazel.For the past few days, I've been acting like I didn't sense a huge space in my heart and house as well.I tried to reach out to her several times but I stopped myself because of stupid pride and also because I was scared that she might lash out on me again and I'll only cause the bridge between us to lengthen.But looking at her now, I can't help but feel guilty and mad at myself. If only I had swallowed my darn pride and reached out to her then, if only I chose her over Alex, none of this would have happened.At least she would have been with Franklin, she would have been watching over him and he would not have gotten this sick.Tears burned my eyes as I stared at her, still hovering by the door, hesitating.Finally she took a step forward and behind her was Charles.My body shook violently with relief and guilt as I saw the two people who helped me take care of Franklin when I was all alone

    ALEXANDER'S POV Food poisoning??I turned to face Katherine."How is this possible?"She looked as utterly confused as I felt."I... I don't know. I…we only ate Chinese takeout, and he ate cereal...every other thing in the house is fresh, I don't see how he could have gotten food poisoning from any of the things there.""How certain are you that it's food poisoning?""I'm not a hundred percent certain, I just said that I suspect it's food poisoning, judging from the symptoms in the child and the pains he keeps complaining of, it's highly likely that your son has food poisoning but we'll still need to take a stool test to be sure."He reached for his telecom while speaking and excused himself, leaving both of us in the office while he went into the private room."Are you sure you both ate the Chinese takeout?"I didn't know how it came across to her but the way her face etched into a shade of red, I could tell that I didn't place my words well."Are you asking me if I'm sure I ate out
