KATHERINE'S POV

The ride was so slow and I felt uneasy.

The closer we got to the cabin, the more my heart skipped faster.

"Are you okay? You should have stayed behind, you know?" Alex said, interrupting the thoughts that swirled around my head.

I shook my head.

There was no way in hell I'll let him handle Victor by himself. The man dared to mess with me and my son, I have to show him that he messed with the wrong person.

"I'm fine. How close are we?" I asked staring at Henry through the rearview mirror.

He glanced at me and then at Alex as if waiting for permission.

Alex nodded.

"Almost there. We'll be there within two minutes."

"Won't he leave before then?"

Henry smirked.

"No. I have eyes on him. The minute he steps out of that cabin, he'll be arrested. Did you think we came here without a plan?"

I turned to glance at Alex. He didn't tell me anything about having backups.

"No... I, I thought we were going to handle it alone. What if the cops do something to him, what if they're not

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 145 — I Should Never Have Come Here

    KATHERINE’S POVMy lips still tingled.I pressed them together, as though I could erase the sensation, erase the memory of Alex’s mouth on mine, but it clung stubbornly like the echo of a dream. By the time I re-entered the kitchen, I had already schooled my expression into something neutral, something that would not betray the storm inside me.But Susan’s eyes caught mine, and for a fleeting second, I knew.She had seen.Her gaze was too sharp, too observant, hovering on me longer than necessary. She didn’t say a word, bless her, but the silence between us felt heavier than anything Alex had left behind when he walked out the door.She was always at the scene…just like how she saw me running out of Alex's room the day she got married.Franklin, of course, knew nothing. He sat at the table swinging his legs, humming under his breath while fiddling with one of his toy cars. His innocence cut through the tension, a reminder of why I had to keep myself steady.“Back already?” Susan’s voi

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 144 — Astra and I… We Probably had Sex!

    ALEXANDER'S POV Henry's text deeply affected my mood and ruined my day but I still appreciated the fact that he thought it was best to inform me about the latest development in the investigation.I tried to dismiss the issue with a smile as I gently patted Franklin's back but the look on Katherine's face showed that she wouldn't let this pass by."Alex...we need to talk."Her hand was on her waist while the other bandaged one still remained hanging, she looked pale and once again, I found myself questioning why I let her come back home instead of still remaining in the hospital.At least if she had remained there, she wouldn't be looking as pale as death, or even be struggling to breathe but Katherine was as stubborn as a mule."I need to be there with Henry, Kathie, we'll talk later," I answered and immediately rushed out of the kitchen to avoid prolonging the conversation and giving in to her.But she was faster than I thought, even with a limp.I was halfway to the door when she s

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 143 — Because the Past Doesn’t Stay Buried!

    KATHERINE'S POVWelcome home...Home.That word resounded in my ears as I stared into the eyes of Alex's sister.I never once thought that I would walk into a very familiar yet unfamiliar view of my son with his father and his aunt.They all stared back at me, Alex with a wary look, Franklin with a half smile and Susan looking so happy to see me."Susan...."I walked towards her, still grimacing in pain from the sharp pain in my leg as I slightly limped."Hey, hey, relax. You shouldn't be up and about now," She said and rushed towards me, her hands grabbed mine and against my will, I held it tightly."I'm okay.... Good morning."Alex took a step towards me but the look on Susan's face stopped him from coming to help me which I appreciated.I wasn't in the mood for him to come close to me. His close proximity to me in this kitchen alone was spreading all sorts of emotions and memories in my head."Here, sit," she grabbed a kitchen seat and pulled it for me, "Would you like a glass of w

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 142 — This was what I missed out on for six years

    ALEXANDER'S POV For the first time in days, I slept peacefully.Completely at ease without waking up in the middle of the night to quench my thirst or even answer nature's call.When I felt a soft touch on my face and as I struggled to open my eyes, my heart was giddy with a weird calmness.It wasn't until I opened my eyes and saw Franklin grinning at me that I knew why I was feeling so happy.It wasn't a dream.Katherine came home last night.And Franklin too!I chuckled softly and smiled back at him as he grazed my cheeks lightly with a feather which I assume was the culprit behind the soft touch that woke me up from sleep."Daddy, you're awake!"I sat up and pulled him on the bed."Yes, champ. Now , whose fault is that?"He giggled and leaned his head on my chest.I felt light as a feather and my heart squeezed gently with emotions that I could barely describe.Waking up with my son next to me was something that I've always imagined since the day I discovered I have a son.This wa

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 141 — Tomorrow, We’ll Leave

    KATHERINE’S POVThe gates groaned open, and the car rolled forward.Alexander House loomed ahead of me, tall and severe against the night sky, its windows glowing faintly like watchful eyes. It hadn’t changed. At least not much.Some things remained the same but other things were almost foreign to my eyes.Not the brick, not the perfectly trimmed hedges, not the weight of it pressing down on me before I even stepped inside.Six years, and yet it felt as if no time had passed.My throat tightened. I pressed Franklin closer to my chest, burying my nose in his hair for strength. His warmth, his soft breathing, his innocence, he was the only anchor I had as the tide of memories crashed hard against me.I remembered walking out of this place with hot tears blurring my vision, my heart breaking with every step away from Alex. I remembered the silence of that departure, the way he hadn’t stopped me, the way pride and pain had carved an abyss between us. I had sworn then that I would never

  • Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!   Chapter 140 — Safer Doesn’t Mean Peace!

    Author's POV The hospital corridors pulsed with noise. It started as a hum at first, a low murmur Hazel thought belonged to another floor. But by the time she slipped back into the waiting area, it had swelled into a roar—the sound of voices, cameras clicking, the shuffle of dozens of restless feet. Reporters. She froze, heart thumping as she watched through the glass doors at the far end of the hall. They crowded like vultures, bodies pressed against the entryway, microphones jutting forward, flashes of light bursting in chaotic rhythm. The guards struggled to hold them back, but the name on everyone’s lips made Hazel’s stomach twist. “Katherine! Katherine Shane!!" “She’s alive!"" “How did she survive?” "Is it true that Miss Katherine is awake now? Does she remember what happened?” Hazel clenched her fists. She hadn’t expected the news to spread so quickly. She’d thought there’d be time, a few days of quiet recovery before the world intruded. But the world had always been c
