last update Huling Na-update: 2025-04-24 13:43:34

Everyone’s attention fell on Aurora.

They were alarmed and at the same time very curious to know what Aurora had done to the great Mr Dumont.

Aurora was a very beautiful woman. People knew and acknowledged that fact.

She had the kind of beauty that could turn heads instantly when she walked into any room full of people.

Could it be that she had an affair with Mr Dumont?

Lucien stared at Aurora, questioningly.

“Aurora, care to explain what this is about?”He questioned, coldly.

It felt as if someone had poured ice on his body.

How could Aurora know or even offend someone like Mr Dumont?

Could there be something between them?

He recalled when she told him she had a lover.

No.

That can’t be possible.

Even if he had told her that their marriage was an open one, he always believed that she could never get involved with another man.

She could never have anything to do with another man, talk more of a man like Mr Dumont who was definitely out of her league.

Aurora stepped forward and spoke, c

  • Billionaire's Regret, Too Late!   Chapter 15 On purpose

    *AURORA*Was it because people worshipped the ground he walked on?That man was so arrogant!I took a deep breath, I’d have to ignore his arrogance because I really needed to secure this project for the Sullivans.I was still fuming when I suddenly got splashed with red wine.I gasped in shock then looked up to see Isobel.“Oh, I’m so sorry, Aurora. I just wanted to go make a toast to Mrs Dumont but I tripped when I was passing by this table.”Who was she kidding?She did it on purpose!Isobel always wanted to humiliate and hurt me whenever she gets the chance.I looked around, seeing people’s attention was already getting drawn to us.I glared at Isobel, as I tried not to lose my temper.My mom, or rather, Hannah, Isobel’s mother walked up to her.“Mom, I…I didn’t mean to. Oh God, her dress has gotten messed up because of me.”Hannah slung me an unbothered look.“Don’t feel so bad, Isobel. It was a honest mistake. I mean, Aurora has enjoyed everything you were supposed to enjoy since

    *AURORA*“Why are you undressing in my bedroom?”I blinked.”Your…your bedroom?”“Yes.”I looked around the room which was painted in black, well, it suited him.“I didn’t know. I got splashed with wine and Janelle brought me here to change. She said this room was unoccupied.”He raised his eyebrow, slightly.”She’s not wrong. This used to be my room. I don’t live here anymore. I just wanted to come up to relax for a while, it’s not easy putting up with a lot of people.”He replied.I almost sensed arrogance in that statement but when I thought about it, it must be exhausting for him having people after people, wanting to talk to him, to curry favor from him.I saw a door, guessing it was the bathroom, I tried to open it but it was locked.I turned back to face him, still securing my dress around my body.“If it’s not too much to ask, can you go out please?”“Are you sending me out of my own room?”He asked.I needed him to have a conscience right now.The dress had come with an inbuilt b

    *AURORA*“Yes, I can have any woman I want. And I’ll make sure you regret treating me like this.”Oh God.Did I treat him too bad?I just said I wasn’t interested in him!Why can’t he humbly accept that?I had a bad feeling about this.He headed for the door and left.I released a breath I didn’t even know I was holding.I walked out of the room and met Lucien outside the hall, he was already sitting inside the car waiting for me.He didn’t ask how I got splashed with wine and I didn’t see any need of explaining to him either.I got into the car and the driver drove off.Getting to the busy road, the car suddenly pulled up at the side of the road.“Get down. I have something important to attend to tonight. Take a taxi home.”I didn’t argue with him, I got out of the car and it sped off.Sighing, I knew where he was headed.He could have at least had the decency to drop me home.I hailed down a taxi and headed home.********When I walked into the house, Alma was at the living room, sh

    *AURORA*A week rolled by.I didn’t see or hear from Damon after that phone…sex.He didn’t call me and I tried to convince myself that it was for the best.Getting involved with him wouldn’t be healthy for me, anyway.I didn’t also hear from Lucien either.He didn’t come home since that night.I wasn’t bothered but his family was, especially his mother who kept trying to reach him but he wouldn’t pick her calls.He finally came home one night and Alma was furious at him.We were having dinner when he walked in.“You really want to be disowned, don’t you?!”She thundered.“Shouldn’t you ask me why I haven’t been home first before threatening me?!”He shot at her.“I should ask you why? Everyone knows why! You were with that…”“I was at the company. I’ve been working overtime, do you think it’s easy adapting? I have no prior experience and if I let this family down, you all would still be the ones to berate my ass. I have to get familiar with the company’s business.”Jorge then spoke.”Oh,

    *AURORA*“Please send an invite to the Sullivans.”I pleaded, ignoring how his touch made me feel.“And if I don’t?”“If you do, I’ll not be participate much in the project. Lucien is majorly in charge of it anyway and so I’ll make sure you rarely see me.”“You think that’s going to help?”He moved his face closer to mine and pressed his lips against mine.My entire body instantly went up in flames.Hot sparks of fire sizzled across my skin at the first brush on his mouth against mine.I heard myself moaned, opening my mouth to his searching tongue.I stroked my tongue against his, tangling it with his, sliding it into his mouth to taste him.I moaned again when I tasted the heady sweetness of his mouth.Oh the taste of him, the feel of him, everything about him was like a magnetic pull.I lifted my arms to tangle my hands in his hair, holding him even closer to me.I deepened the kiss, ravaging his mouth with my own as I drew his tongue further into my mouth and nipped, gently.He gro

    *AURORA*It was 9:30 pm that night.I had just finished taking a shower and I started to blow dry my hair.I stared at my cellphone on the table knowing he was going to call any moment from now.And sure enough, the phone started to ring.Taking a deep breath, I picked up.His voice sounded cold and frightening and I tried to be tough.“You’re not coming tonight, are you?” Damon asked.“I’m not.”I replied.“How dare you stand me up? You agreed to come over if I send the invite.”“I changed my mind.”“You…you deceived me? Do you really plan on staying married to that douche? I am offering you what other women would die for!”I sighed, heavily. “If I’m getting a divorce, it should be because I want to not because you’re forcing me to. And for what? To move in with you? You may be every woman’s dream guy but I’ll never let myself get played with again.”He sounded exasperated. “You…you’re pushing me, Aurora.”“Good night, Mr Dumont.”I hung up and placed the phone on the table.I think I

The boss said she had such an impressive resume.”“If I was the one who graduated from that school, I think I would have wanted to work at the biggest TV station in Madrid, why would she come here?”“And I thought there could be no one better than Aurora.”“Do you really think the director brought her here to compete with Aurora?

    Aurora was smiling though.But she had a very cold aura.She was fearless, looking at them with the same contempt and disdain as if she were looking at a bunch of fools.This almost provoked a public outcry.The crowd all fanned the flames for Isobel to hurry up and teach Aurora a lesson.But Isobel was slow to make a move.Because she knew the strength of Aurora.Aurora had learnt Taekwondo as a child and was said to be a ninth degree black belt.She hadn't really seen the full extent of Aurora’s strength.But from past encounters, Isobel knew she was no match for her.She couldn’t beat Aurora up by herself and she knew the crowd wouldn’t join her if she started a fight.Isobel wasn’t completely foolish.She wasn't going to actually start a fight and screw up her elaborate birthday party.She smiled and looked at the time.It was about time that lady show up.That lady would be able to deal with Aurora better.Sure enough, Isobel stared at a figure not far away.A hint of impishness

    Staring at Aurora’s direction, Isobel shouted.“Sister, Rory!”Aurora frowned and looked over at Isobel.Isobel flashed a bright smile at Aurora.With an innocent face, she called out, "Sister, bring me a glass of champagne please."Aurora put down the cupcake she was holding.Smoothly, she grabbed a glass of champagne from the nearby champagne tower and walked over.Before the feast began, Hannah and Alberto specially instructed her that the two of them should display their sisterly love today.Since Isobel wanted to act, she would cooperate.Aurora approached with the champagne.She heard Isobel laughing with a group of people who were mocking Aurora, recklessly.The brunette next to Isobel covered her mouth and laughed.“Isobel, that dress Aurora is wearing, why does it look like the discounted dress you found by the roadside last week?"Isobel glanced at Aurora with arrogant eyes, "Yeah, these are the kind of cheap clothes Aurora likes.”“But how can she wear such an outfit on her

    Isobel took Hannah’s arm, "Okay, mom, let's go.”The lounge was connected to a hallway, and after walking out two meters, there was a huge rotating staircase that led to the banquet hall.As they walked down the stairs.The light in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed.Then the music started.The guests looked around, curiously.The voice of the emcee sounded.“Let's welcome our beautiful celebrants, Isobel and Aurora Diaz.”The crowd's eyes went to the light source.A beam of light fell from the ceiling and reflected above the rotating staircase.The brightest beams of light shone on Isobel and Hannah.Hannah was clad in a gorgeous dress, looking noble and elegant.And Isobel, a red velvet dress, which was inlaid with countless fine diamonds, looking bejeweled, graceful and luxurious.The dress looked like it was high-fashion and expensive.And there was another, dimmer beam of light falling behind them.It shone on the woman in a white dress.The woman was wearing a long white evening

    Isobel could clearly remember that she had been mesmerized like this when she and Hannah had gotten closer to Damon on his mother’s birthday.She had been too stunned by his looks to speak.She recalled that she couldn’t even say a word to him.He had met a lot of people that day but right now, he recognized her and even called out her name, correctly!What does this mean?Could it be that he was interested in her as well?After having such a realization, Isobel simply couldn't suppress her inner leap of joy.Sure enough, what Damon said next reinforced her thoughts.He said to Sergio,”Sergio, excuse us.”‘Excuse us?

    *AURORA*Wanting to please Damon too, I broke off the kiss and made him lie on the bed instead.I reached out and slowly touched his cock, softly grazing my fingers along it.It jumped in my hand, expanding with a spasm.Damon groaned.His reaction making me happy to please him more.I began to brush my fingers across his dick, softly, amazed at the burning heat from it and from the silky softness of the skin over the rock hardness beneath.I encircled the massive girth with my fingers and began to softly stroke it, up and down.Damon was moaning, every sound he made doubled and tripled my own desire.A drop of clear liquid beaded at the tip of his massive head. I moved my palm over it and used his natural lubrication to wet my fingers, then I began to softly caress him again.The slipperiness made it even more sensual, the soft pull of his flesh against mine.“Oh God! You…Aurora.”He was

    *AURORA*“The name is quite interesting, but I really can't accept something so valuable."Fifty million dollars was not a small amount.Damon said casually, "If you don't like it, then I'll throw it away." He said making a gesture to open the window.I felt flustered and I hastily reached out to stop him, snatching the brocade box back.Although I knew that he was doing this on purpose, I still had to feel the capriciousness of this manIf I hadn't stopped him, maybe he really might have thrown it.There was certainly no way I would see such valuable jewelry thrown away, much less leave my heart and soul on the streets.I said, "I love it, thank you so much.”And I made a mental note to get him a gift of equal value later on when it was his birthday.Although I also had money but I knew the value of it.And this necklace was of great value."What do you want to do for your birthday the d
