Billionaire's Regret Chapter 217
Adrain sat at the head of the boardroom his hands folded carefully over a set of financial projections.The boardroom felt colder than usual, the long mahogany table lined with investors whose expressions drifted from polite disappointment to barely concealed impatience."The quarterly numbers speak for themselves," one of the older investors said, tapping his pen against the report with a slow, heavy rhythm. "We appreciate everything you've done, Adrian, genuinely we do, but the market is shifting fast, and companies that haven't secured partnerships with the major players are simply being left behind.""We're still in active negotiations," Adrian said, fighting to keep his voice steady despite the suffocating tightness building in his chest."With Meridian?" another investor asked, the tone sharp and dry, and filled with displeasure."Among others," Adrian answered carefully.The room exchanged brief, quiet glances that told him exactly how unconvinced they were. He had tried every

Zane’s penthouse doors slid open with a soft, quiet hiss before he could even begin to pull himself together, and across the room, Ollie jerked his head up from the sofa where he’d been reviewing shipment logs, his face instantly dropping every trace of casual ease as he took in the state of Zane, he knew exactly what was wrong with Zane but not the extent of it."Holy shit, Zane," Ollie breathed out, rising so fast the papers on his lap nearly tumbled, his eyes darting frantically over the dark cut splitting Zane's lip, his wild, tangled hair, and the violent, uncontrollable tremor that had been rattling through his body ever since he fled the highway. "What the hell happened out there enough to trigger this?"Zane didn't answer. He couldn't.He just pushed right past him into the shadow of the hallway, his boots dragging and uneven against the polished floor, and Ollie trailed right at his shoulder, years of surviving alongside this broken version of Zane telling him that words were

"Zane, wait!" Maya’s desperate voice tore through the heavy night as she sprinted across the driveway, her heels striking the cold pavement with frantic, uneven thuds until she caught up to him just as his trembling hand clamped around the car door handle.He froze, his shoulders shivering under a silent, violent strain that Maya mistook for pure rage, she simply assumed the bitter argument from dinner was still burning through his veins, completely unaware of the demon in him that he was trying so hard to hide was threatening to come out and that was her biggest mistake because she thought she knew him and understood whatever he went through but she didn't.Jeff’s careless words were still buried deep in Zane's chest like a serrated blade twisting with every ragged breath, dragging him backward into a past he couldn't escape, his mother will always be his father's biggest mistake and him, Zane was just the spurn of a mistake that no one love or wanted.His mother was hated and that h

The dinner table felt warm despite everything, candles flickering softly against the polished wood while Claire’s roast chicken filled the room with a rich, familiar scent that hit Adrian right in the chest, pulling him back to every ordinary family evening he’d ever taken for granted before their lives tore apart at the seams and slowly, painfully, began to rebuild.Lisa sat right beside him, her hand resting comfortably against his beneath the table, her laugh ringing out bright and easy whenever Jeff launched into one of his old stories, and Adrian found himself watching her face more than eating his food, still caught in a quiet, breathless disbelief that she was actually sitting here at his family’s table as if the last six years of agonizing distance had simply melted away into nothing and now, she was completely his, the thought of that always left him in awe.Across from them sat Zane, wrapped in a suffocating silence. He had come reluctantly, dragged in only because Claire's

Maya woke long before her alarm, pulled brutally from sleep by the deep, throbbing ache in her ankle as the grey early light seeped across the room, and as she lay there staring blankly at her room.A fierce, stubborn determination took root in her chest before her mind could even fully process the pain. Just thinking about the comment he made yesterday made her blood boil.She was not going to let him win.Sitting up with a sharp gasp, wincing as the movement sent a hot spike through her foot, she dragged herself toward the bathroom to search the cabinet, her fingers trembling slightly as she wrapped the elastic bandage tightly around her swollen skin, carefully smoothing down the edges while the dull agony flared with every subtle shift.She couldn't stop thinking about his threat.I'll break both your legs.The lingering memory of his voice, dark, low, and terrifyingly lethal sent an unwanted shiver cascading down her spine, leaving her breathless even now, safely alone with only h

Zane pulled into the driveway, and before Maya could even try to climb out on her own, he was already at her door, yanking it open and hoisting her over his shoulder without a single word."Put me down!" she screamed, her voice cracking as she squirming hard against him, her fists pounding helplessly against the solid muscle of his back."Quiet!" He growled as he brought his palm down against her backside, the sudden sting cutting her off in an instant.Maya went dead silent, a cold shock washing over her as her skin burned beneath her clothes where his hand had landed. She couldn't even catch her breath properly, paralyzed by the raw humiliation and heat flooding her veins while he carried her straight through the front door and up the staircase.Claire rushed out into the hallway the moment the heavy thud of footsteps echoed, her face immediately pulling tight with fear."What happened to her?" she asked, real panic lacing through her words as she saw Maya dangling limp over his sho
