****Joe's POV****

I stormed into my dad’s study, slamming the door so hard I thought it might break off its hinges. My fists were shaking, and my head was spiraling with questions, anger, and disbelief.

“Dad.” I yelled.

He stood by the study window, leaning on his cane, calm as ever, as if I hadn’t just burst in like a hurricane.

“What is it, Joe? You haven’t called me ‘Dad’ in a long time.” His voice was smooth, almost teasing, like he knew exactly what he was doing to me.

I pinched my forehead

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    Chapter 82 — A devil with patience

    Joe's POVI was awake before dawn, feeling strangely enthusiastic, almost whole—as though a missing piece of me was finally falling into place.Yesterday's conversation with Miranda had gone far more smoothly than I'd expected. Apparently, her love for me was enough to make her play along with my dirty little games without stopping to think about the consequences.Maybe I was wrong for taking advantage of her feelings.But what choice did I have?I needed my kids.More importantly...I needed Megan.She had to be with me and no one else, and I'd do whatever it took to make that happen.Even if it meant using Miranda.After all, wasn't she the reason everything fell apart in the first place?She drugged me, took me back to my apartment, then slept with me while her own sister was under the same roof.If only she'd been content with keeping things between us—low-key, casual, just fun—maybe Megan and I would still be together.Maybe we'd still have our family.Maybe she'd still be waitin

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    Chapter 81 – Anton's Surveillance

    Kai's POVI walked into Anton's base, loosening my tie and rolling up the sleeves of my shirt. The place was secluded, tucked away from the warehouse and every other sacred location—a facility only Anton, his men, and I knew existed."Welcome, Boss. This way, please," Anton said, leading me deeper inside.Rows of large computers lined the room while armed men stood guard, surveying multiple feeds. Tech experts typed vigorously on their keyboards, monitoring every detail.The monitors glowed brightly, displaying surveillance footage of the roads leading to Megan's mansion and its surrounding perimeter."We've been reviewing surveillance footage from the past few months," Anton began. "What we found was... interesting. Several vehicles have repeatedly tailed Megan's car after she leaves work."I nodded, standing beside one of the workstations as a technician pulled up clips showing different cars following Megan from a distance.One after another, the vehicles appeared on screen.Each t

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    CHAPTER 80 — Sweet Lies and Manipulation

    Joe’s POVI enjoyed a thick glass of wine in my penthouse, expecting the arrival of my esteemed guest, my legs crossed on the table, tie slightly undone and a knowing smirk sitting at the corner of my lips.Carl sat across from me typing furiously on his laptop as he kept stealing glances my way.“Ask,” I finally said, looking away in delight and suddenly growing bored of his quiet stares. “Why do you keep staring like you’ve suddenly lost your ability to speak these days?”“You look exceptionally confident these days,” Carl muttered. “For a man whose ex-wife and kids are currently being protected by another man.”“Point of correction,” I grinned. “My wife. Megan and I are still legally married. And second of all, the hell with that bastard. I have a sweet plan on how to win Megan back and have my kids calling me papa.”Carl rolled his eyes immediately.“This is the time to be careful, Joe. No time for those reckless steps you always took toward Megan. She’s feisty now and extremely g

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    CHAPTER 79 — No More Weak Spots

    Kai’s POVI didn’t know if it was just me, but the tension around the kids’ attendant felt a little too heavy for someone simply escorting a parent to the principal’s office.Or maybe she was nervous because the children in question were under her supervision.Either way, I needed to establish something very clearly in this school.Ethan and Cole were not children anyone could casually expose to strangers.The teacher finally stopped in front of the principal’s office and knocked softly, her hands trembling slightly at her sides.A quiet voice answered from inside.“Come in.”She pushed the door open gently and stepped aside for me to enter first.“Sir… this is one of the boys’ guardians. Ethan and Cole’s…”The principal barely looked up until he heard the twins’ names. The moment his eyes landed on me, recognition flashed across his face and his expression tightened.“Mr… Kai,” he muttered quickly, dismissing the teacher with a wave of his hand.“I see you still recognize me after al

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    CHAPTER 78 — A Threat Laced In Silence

    Kai’s POVMegan noticed the shift in my expression immediately and sensed something was wrong. She ushered the kids toward the dining table for breakfast before slowly walking closer to me.“What is wrong?” she asked warily. “What did Anton say?”I hesitated for a moment, not wanting her to worry when what she truly needed was rest, but knowing Megan, she wouldn’t calm down until she knew the full situation herself.“It’s Joe” I said finally. “He had one of men patrolling around the estate. The guards found footage of him around the estate and near the school surveillance system.”“What?” Megan whispered, her hand slipping from the staircase railing she’d been holding onto moments ago in laughter and ease.Now her fingers trembled.“This was weeks ago,” I continued carefully. “Even before Joe arrived at the estate. His men had already found the kids’ school route and had been following your car before repeatedly losing the trail.”Megan exhaled shakily.“I guess after enough tries, he

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    CHAPTER 77 — The Things We Protect

    Kai’s POVBy the time Megan and I were done training, we were both heaving in exhaustion, sweat clinging to our skin as we made jokes about each other’s stance and composure while fighting just to ease the mood around us, yet the lingering fear of Joe Julian taking the kids still weighed heavily in the air.On my part, I tried swaying Megan’s mind off the situation even if only for a short while so she could rest, but every now and then I still caught the worry in her face.She was scared.Not for herself.For the boys.For the tug of war that was coming.I could tell she barely had any proper sleep since Joe showed up at the estate with those DNA papers.I watched her as she lay on the mat, back flat against the floor, eyes wide open like she was afraid to spare even a second for rest.“When are you going to give yourself a break, Megan?”She turned toward me with a small smile.“Break? I’m literally resting right now, what do you mean?” she laughed lightly.“No, Megan. I mean actual

  • His Regret: Rise Of The Boss Lady    Chapter 43 — Restraint Before Chaos

    Megan’s POVThe minute the sun rose on a new day, I was already awake.I hadn’t slept much. Maybe an hour, if I was being generous. My body rested, but my mind didn’t. It kept replaying the same thoughts over and over, like a broken record I couldn’t switch off.The summons.Joe.The council.My ch

But the way he spoke to me tonight—like I was still some reckless boy living under his shadow—lit something ugly in me.It was always like this.No matte

    Megan’s POVThe boy could not have been more than twenty-five.That was the first thing I noticed as he stood in front of me, shoulders hunched, fingers trembling as he extended a brown envelope in my direction like it weighed a hundred pounds. Sweat clung to his hairline despite the cool atmospher
