Chapter 180 — Why Is Alex Scared of Me Talking to Beth?

KATHERINE'S POV

I never knew what the exact definition of awkwardness meant until this moment.

The house was silent, save for the occasional excited yells of Franklin as he played his favorite video game in his bedroom upstairs.

The mistake I made was choosing to stay downstairs when Franklin suddenly decided he needed a change of environment to play his game better.

It never crossed my mind that Beth was still in the house or that she was a neat freak who was obsessed with cleaning the house.

She walked into the sitting room some minutes after Franklin walked upstairs and nodded at me before rearranging the house and I was left with nothing to do but stare at her as she worked.

Of course I could just walk upstairs and leave her to work but I figured she might assume that I don't like her if I do so, that's if she doesn't already think so.

So I sat like a little kid who was told to stay put and simply played with my phone avoiding looking up or making any contact with her.

My boredom

I swear the atmosphere in that house felt tighter than a corset two sizes too small. Beth smiling?? Katherine flinching?? And Alex walking in like he just fought the Holy Spirit and lost?? Something is DEFINITELY brewing — and it’s not coffee. I’m just going to sit here quietly and pretend I don’t know anything. Just know… the next chapter is where the tea decides to boil. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. 😉

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 181 — Then Who?

    KATHERINE’S POVThe sound of the shower running upstairs was my cue.I waited for about five minutes, pretending to scroll through my phone on the couch just to make sure Alex was actually bathing and not pretending to. The man had gotten far too good at hiding things lately and if there was one thing I hated, it was being kept in the dark like a child who couldn’t handle the truth.When I was sure the water hadn’t stopped, I stood up quietly, slipped out of my slippers, and walked toward the door that led to the main hallway. The house was unusually quiet and usually I would have been grateful for the quiet but not tonight.Even Franklin had lowered his game volume, and Beth was nowhere in sight.I knew that my actions would make Alex mad at me, especially once he discovered that I left the house but it was either this or him telling me what happened.And he left me with no option than to do this.The door opened and I quickly glanced back to be sure that no one was behind me before

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!    Chapter 179 — You Think It Was Me All Along?

    ALEXANDER'S POV I watched him with clouded eyes, the way he stood confidently like he belonged here. Something about that smug look on his face made me feel like punching him, to feel the way his skin sagged against my knuckles.“Alex! Funny running into you,” He said in what sounded like a jovial tone but I could tell that it was everything but it.“I know right? What are the odds of you running into me at my own company? We seem to run into each other too much. I'm starting to think we're soulmates,” I responded dryly.He wasn't immune to my comment and scoffed before stepping into the elevator. “Charles,” Henry acknowledged him. I was quick to notice that he didn't spare him the formality he would have given anyone else and I was grateful for it.“Hello,” Charles nodded back at him and turned his attention to me, “I was on my way to see you and I ran into some…I don't know, fans of yours?”I had to stop myself from lurching at him and smacking that look off his face. He must r

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 178 — My Nemesis in the Elevator

    ALEXANDER'S POV I couldn't lift my hand. It felt stiff as I tried to turn to the other side of the bed and the responding sharp pain immediately woke me up. The space next to me was wrinkled and empty which had me up immediately. I ignored the sharp pain in my dead hand as I glanced around the room worriedly. Katherine was supposed to be next to me on the bed but she wasn't and while a part of me knew that she could probably be downstairs with Franklin, another part of me couldn't help but fear that something might have happened. That she left me. I groaned softly and nursed my hands as I grabbed the shirt next to me and threw it on before walking out of the room. The sound of someone talking downstairs fueled my hopes that Katherine was still around and it wasn't until I got to the foot of the stairs that I realized who it was. “And you'll have cookies after eating breakfast but not now, okay?” The new housekeeper was crouched in front of Franklin scolding him for trying to

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 177 — He Actually Confirmed It??

    KATHERINE’S POV I've known Alex for all sorts of things; stubborn, possessive, easily provoked, but I definitely had no idea that he was into this type of thing until he asked me to strip. Contrary to what I told him, I did feel slightly humiliated and embarrassed when he stood there watching me naked without saying anything but for some reason, I got bold the minute I realized what this was all about. Alexander Blake, youngest CEO on Forbes list, most sought after bachelor, and literally one of the hottest, if not the hottest, man in Texas, was feeling jealous of a random English Guy. Not that Charles wasn't a big deal himself, but the fact that he was this mad at me just because of a single picture posted online by the paparazzi made me feel … I don't know… special? I smiled and took slow steps towards him, the look in his eyes changed as he watched me approach him with barely nothing on me but my bra and pants. “Are you jealous, Alex?” I asked with the confidence that I felt t

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!    Chapter 176 — Strip, Katherine.

    ALEXANDER’S POV “Where did you go, Katherine?” I asked in a low voice and moved closer to her, it didn't escape my attention that she took a step backwards and swallowed hard. She was scared. Good. “A… Alex…” she stuttered. So she suddenly couldn't find the words to say, right? “Where. Did. You. Go?” She finally stared back at me and I could see the way her chest rose and fell and the way she bit her lower lip. “I was with Hazel and then.. I…” No. Don't you fucking lie to me, Katherine. “And then,” she sucked in her breath, “And then I met with Charles.” I don't know why I felt disappointed when she finally told me the truth. Maybe it was because I half expected it to be a lie, I expected her to say that the images all over the Internet were deepfake and that she was only with Hazel. But it was true. She really did meet and kiss Charles. The silence between us grew and when she realized that I wasn't saying anything, she took a step forward. “But I promise you Alex th
