KATHERINE’S POV

The knock came again, firmer this time, less like a request and more like a summons.

My pulse stuttered.

For a moment I just sat there, staring at the door, hoping it would disappear. I wasn’t ready for visitors, especially not ones who have absolutely no idea how much of a mess I was in right now.

Since meeting with Alex's father, I've been in and out of a battle with myself, regretting my choice to come back and fight for what belongs to me.

Especially since he refused to be a witness for me in court and prove that the will is truly original.

I was still contemplating leaving the person hanging and not going out when the third knock snapped me out of my daze.

“I’m coming…” I said under my breath, though I wasn’t sure I was.

I pushed myself off the couch, every muscle stiff. When I opened the door, I found a man standing there, mid-fifties, a little grayer around the edges than the last time I saw him, but unmistakably familiar.

David Hass.

My mother’s former lawyer.

Did Franklin just save the entire plot with one suspicious look, or am I the only one feeling goosebumps? If you think Katherine’s day was chaotic already, wait till you see what greets her next.

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 228 — Good Luck, Katherine. Break a Leg.

    KATHERINE'S POV Hazel was already at the door by the time I got to her doorstep and just as I was about to ring the bell, she pulled it open.“Come in…come in. I saw your car,” She explained when she noticed my surprise.I walked in and smiled at how surprisingly less messy her house was, not in a bad way, but in the “I'm busy working and I don't have time to clear up” way.“Any word from Alex's lawyers yet?” I asked, slumping into her sofa and turned my eyes towards the documents on her round table.She was at the kitchen, heading back with a fresh pot of coffee and a cup when she answered,“Yes, and they mentioned something strange.”The pot hit the table and I poured myself a cup, “What did they say?”Even though I tried to hide it, it was so obvious. My hands trembled slightly as I held the cup and I swallowed the coffee, wincing as it burned down my throat.I tried to hide the growing panic moving up my stomach by taking yet another gulp of the coffee but this time around, I was

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 227 — This Is Exactly Why I Won’t Ever Lose.

    KATHERINE'S POV My body felt it before I did… the impending tension, the fear…the angst of what was to come.Whenever I was extremely tensed or simply scared, I tend to have runny stomach and a throbbing headache. The symptoms were all there… except this time, it was worse than it had ever been.The sunlight streaked into the room just as I opened my eyes and sighed heavily, feeling the weight of my past worries since last night on my chest.Tuesday.Just like that we were already about to start the court case against Clara and Elizabeth for the battle of ownership of my mom's company and though I'd spent the past few days trying to convince myself that it would go well, I couldn't help but feel like this was just the calm before the storm.Clara has been unusually quiet and Elizabeth? Well, according to Hazel, she didn't show up at the company at all for two days and that can only mean one thing.They were planning something.. something sinister and I couldn't tell if it had somethi

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!    Chapter 226 — She Smiles When You Look at Her… But When You Don’t, She’s Different.

    ALEXANDER'S POVThe soft echo of Katherine’s footsteps faded up the stairs, but the hollow ache in my chest stayed behind like a bruise that refused to heal.She didn’t look at me.Didn’t answer me.Didn’t even pause long enough for me to reach out and stop her.She just… walked away.Part of me wanted to chase after her, pull her into my arms, and force the words out of both of us until things were okay again. But another part, the part that knew how fragile she was right now, knew better.She needed space.And if space was the only thing I could give her without breaking her further… then I would give it. Even if it hurts.A small tug on my sleeve pulled me back to reality.“Daddy?”Franklin stood beside me, backpack still on, his eyes darting between the staircase and the front door where the stranger had just left.I forced myself to breathe. “Yeah, bud?”“Why was Mommy talking to that man?”I crouched a little to meet his eye level. Though I acted like I had no idea who came, I

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 224 — Because You Make Me Nervous.

    AUTHOR'S POV Hazel spent the entire ride to the restaurant convincing herself she was not nervous.She had faced board directors who were twice her age and five times more arrogant.She’d stared down rival lawyers without blinking.She had once, no, more than once, told off famous Alexander Blake to his face.Heck, she was considered bold and had never once faltered in front of any men she'd once dated or gone on a blind date with.But this?A date with Henry?Her palms were sweating.By the time she reached the small rooftop restaurant he picked, she had already reapplied lipstick twice, fixed her hair three times, and practiced looking “cool and unbothered” in the elevator mirror.It didn’t work.Nothing could’ve prepared her for the sight of him.Henry stood by one of the corner tables, city lights behind him, sleeves rolled to his elbows. He looked strangely nervous too, straightening the cutlery, adjusting the chair height, tapping the table lightly with his fingers.When he fi

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 223 — The Will Knows What I Don’t!

    KATHERINE’S POV The moment the door closed behind Alex and Astra, something inside me shut down too.Not out of anger.Just exhaustion.I didn’t have the strength to process anything, not Astra’s sudden appearance, not Alex’s panic, not the heavy sadness in his voice when he tried to speak to me. And certainly not the way he looked like the world was ending when Astra whispered I’m pregnant.But Astra had already pulled me aside earlier.Already told me quietly, almost frantically:“It’s not his. I swear it’s not Alex’s baby. Please don’t think that. I just… needed to tell him before someone else did.”And for reasons I didn’t even understand, I believed her.Astra lies to the world, yes, but when she’s scared, her eyes give everything away.So no , I wasn’t worried about the baby.Or about her and Alex.That chapter between them was dead long ago and since she said it herself that she was three months gone, it was almost impossible to think that Alex was the father Three months ago
