Bianca's POV

"I actually think you made a mistake by returning Leo in the first place because right now, it wouldn't or lets say, it might not be as easy as you think." Josh cautioned, when I actually thought he was listening to me and understood what I just explained to him.

My jaw tightened immediately. Here we go again. Another person who wasn't listening. Better still, another person who thought they knew better than me.

"Are you sure that you actually understood what I said or you are just thinking one sided? I just said something to you right now and too you are already quick in jumping into conclusions. I actually explained to you now that it was the woman who leashed the boy to us that came and took him because I couldn't give her money that I was meant to give her as agreed. But it wasn't my fault after all, because Mrs Jasper had refused to give me the remaining money for the contract. Or were you actually deaf when I said that? Besides, how was I meant to keep up to sustain

  • Ex-Hockey Star Regret   Chapter 140 — Time is up!

    Bianca's POVI stood right outside Brad's hospital room as my hand steadied over the door handle. Leo was beside me, quiet and ready like always. His small hand was in mine, warm and steady.This was it. The moment I'd been waiting for. The moment where everything would finally fall into place.I closed my eyes for just a second, sending up a quick prayer in my heart. 'I pray this goes as planned. Let him just believe everything I will say to him including the DNA test, without going on to question everything all over again. With that, I can easily manipulate and then extort money from him.'I took a breath. Opened my eyes and then turned the door handle and pushed it open.The door clicked as it swung inward, and I stepped inside with Leo right beside me.My gaze first caught up with Nicole even before it went to Brad who was sitting up on the bed.Of course, I wasn't even surprised that Nicole was here. She was always here. Always hovering around Brad like she had some kind of claim

  • Ex-Hockey Star Regret   Chapter 139 — Rowan and Sophia again?

    Nicole's POV"Hello?" I said the moment I saw the caller was detective Joe and then I placed the phone on my left ear.Brad was watching me intently. I could feel his eyes on me even as I focused on the call. It was as if he was trying to read whatever information was about to come through."Hello. I wanted to pass a quick piece of information to you, real quick." The detective said at the other end of the call.His voice was urgent…more urgent than usual. That alone made my pulse quicken."Ok, sir. Please go ahead."I tried to keep my voice steady and at the same time, tried not to let the nervousness show. But my free hand was already gripping the armrest of the chair."From the latest information that I got on Bianca, she will come over to the hospital to see Brad by tomorrow. Or else there is eventually a change in her plans. R

  • Ex-Hockey Star Regret   Chapter 138 — Think about the devil…

    Nicole's POV"Has Bianca been here today?" I asked Brad after he had just finished with the food I had brought for him when I came here to his hospital room.I watched him set the empty container aside, looking more satisfied than he had in days. The food seemed to help or maybe it was just the company. Either way, he looked better, stronger and more like himself.And so while I was with Brad, it had just struck my head that I hadn't set my eyes on Bianca after that incident that very day; I mean, a few days ago she came here with Leo.The thought had been nagging at me for a while now. Sitting in the back of my mind like an itch I couldn't scratch. And you, that was really strange. Bianca had been so persistent before, so present and always hovering around Brad lately like she owned him. Or let's say, like she had some kind of claim on him that nobody else could touch. And then suddenly, we haven't

  • Ex-Hockey Star Regret   Chapter 137 — Give him some time.

    Bianca's POV"And how you expect one who you always feel is useless to come up with anything meaningful. Honestly, if you continue talking to me in the manner you do, then I wouldn't mind exposing all of these to whoever cares to listen because I have had it up to here…" He said, pointing to his neck.That moment, I felt attacked and knew the best I could do was to apologise to him.The word 'expose' was still ringing in my ears, very loud and clear, so it felt threatening. I couldn't let this spiral out of control. Not when everything was already falling apart."Hi, sweet. It hasn't gotten to that yet, you know. Ok, I am so sorry if I have said something that didn't go down well with you. Please, forgive me. I am so sorry and I won't do that again, I promise."My voice came out softer than I'd intended…almost pleading. But I don't care about pride right now. I care

  • Ex-Hockey Star Regret   Chapter 136 — He threatens to expose me.

    Bianca's POV"How did it go?" Josh foolishly asked, the moment he opened the door while I had knocked heavily on the door as if I had wanted to pull down the door.The question hit me like a slap. Like he'd just asked the dumbest thing anyone could possibly ask right now.I had just got back so angry from the hospital, with Leo. And I decided to come to Josh's place first because honestly he was the only person I felt that I would rant to, at least, knowing that my secret was safe with him and the fact that he has been part of this all along.My hands were still shaking from how hard everything played out right there at the hospital. From the little withdrawal tough times Brad gave to when Nicole came in . And so, with that my jaw hurt from clenching it so tight. Everything about today had gone wrong. I mean, everything. And here he was, standing in his doorway, asking me how it went like we were tal

  • Ex-Hockey Star Regret   Chapter 135 — What if his mum is also involved in this too?

    Nicole's POV"You ain't saying anything." Brad called my attention. "I asked if the detective has gotten back to you with regards to the findings on Bianca."His voice pulled me back from wherever my mind had wandered off to. I looked at him, at the way he was watching me with those eyes that looked like they missed nothing even with the amnesia.I hesitated a little before saying. "Nope, he has not. He is still on it, Brad." I said but I could bet that my demeanor said the stark opposite.The lie felt heavy and wrong on my tongue, like it didn't belong there. Because I know for a fact that Brad deserved the truth. He deserved to know what was happening in his own life, even if that truth was still complicated for now."Why are you lying to me?" Brad asked me.My heart skipped a beat immediately. How did he know? How could he tell? Or did he sense anything?"How exactly?" I asked him."You just said that the detective hasn't gotten back to you but your facial expression said the opposi
