Ethan

My heart thumped in my chest as I paced towards the school playground where Jay was playing with other children.

I was getting closer and about to call him when he suddenly turned around. The moment he spotted me, his face lit up and a wide smile formed on his face. He ran toward me with his arms open.

“Mr. Ethan!” he called out, his voice filled with excitement.

My heart swelled with joy. I dropped to one knee, embracing him as he threw his small arms around my neck. I held him tightly, and for the first time in a while, I felt a kind of happiness I couldn’t explain.

"I have missed you, Jay.", I whispered with a smile.

Some of the teachers who recognized me came to greet me with a bow. They were stunned at how Jay looked exactly like me. One of them asked if Jay was my son but before I could respond, Jay swiftly answered, telling them that I was his father.

His response bloomed in my heart.

Wow, I can't believe they let him into the school just because he's an uber-rich businessman. What if he was a pedo? I hope Sonia screams the place down and gets them all fired. Un-friggen believable, that's atrocious! (yes, I'm a mamma bear too lol)

  • Mr Billionaire's Regret: Chasing Back My Ex-wife    chapter 220

    Sonia *The End**Four Months Later*I stood quietly by the window, the soft wind brushing against the curtain as I stared at Alex’s photo in my hands. God, I still couldn’t believe he was gone.Tears slipped down my cheeks, one after the other. Yeah, I knew he hurt me… he hurt Ethan but even with all that, I couldn’t bring myself to hate him because Alex wasn’t always a monster. He was once my protector… my friend.During my darkest days, he stood by me, he helped me when no one else did. I will never forget that part of him... Ever.Last month, Ethan and I talked and we agreed to build an orphanage in Alex’s memory. A place for children to feel safe, loved and never forgotten. Just like I wished Alex had felt before he let his demons consume him.Life is truly unimaginable. One moment you’re smiling and the next you’re gasping for air in pain. That’s why in every step we take, we must be very careful because we don’t always get a second chance to fix what we break.“Mommy, are you

  • Mr Billionaire's Regret: Chasing Back My Ex-wife    chapter 219

    AlexI stared at the grey wall of my cell, empty and cold. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t think. My mind was heavy and my chest felt like it carried a mountain.I knew I was not going to come out of this mess. Whether it was a death sentence or life imprisonment, it didn’t matter anymore. My fate is already sealed but there is one thing I needed to do before that judgment came... I have to bury my father.Yes, He may not have been the best man but he is my father, my blood, the only person I have in this world. After thinking all through the night, in the morning, I asked to see Fred.When I walked into his office, he looked up at me, his eyes tired, filled with the kind of pity I never thought I’d see from him. For a second, we were just two old friends again but then the handcuffs reminded me of who I had become.“I want to bury my father,” I said quietly. “Please. I want to bury my father before I am sentenced. It’s the only thing I can do for him now. I know what Is waiting for me

    Ethan I stared at Alex as sweat poured from his forehead, his lips trembled and his entire body looked like it would give out any second. "Good." I smiled inwardly. Let the weight of what he has done crush him.Alex looked from me to the DPO with panic all over his face like a scared child caught red-handed.“Do you still need me to tell you that you are a murderer?” I asked, my voice steady but cold.“It was a mistake,” he muttered, looking at the DPO now. “Please… Fred, it was a mistake. I didn’t mean to…”The DPO just shook his head and let out a deep sigh. He looked torn but I didn’t care about his feelings right now.I stepped forward. “If you still want to keep your badge and your job,” I said to the DPO, my tone sharp, “then do your duty. I want him charged to court first thing tomorrow morning.”The DPO nodded slowly. “Understood.”Alex looked at me with pleading eyes. “Ethan, please… I’m sorry. I lost control. It was a mistake... my father just died... I wasn’t thinking st

    EthanI couldn’t believe it.First, I got a call that Mr. Johnson was dead. That alone knocked the air out of my lungs but before I could even process that shocking news, another message came in that Alex had shot Tina.For a moment, I just stood there, frozen as my phone nearly slipped from my hand.Tina?I couldn't believe it.Yeah, I knew Tina betrayed me. Yes, she turned against me but no matter how much I hated what she did, she is still my sister, my blood. I couldn’t just sit and do nothing.“Get the car ready. Now!” I barked at my driver as I grabbed my jacket and stormed out of the house.The ride to the hospital was a blur. My fists were clenched the whole time. My thoughts were wild. God, What the hell is Alex thinking? How could he do something like that to her?As soon as we arrived, I didn’t waste a second. I marched straight in and spotted a doctor speaking with a nurse.“I need to see Tina Adamson,” I said, barely able to keep the panic out of my voice.The doctor tur

    AlexAfter I deposited my father's body in the morgue, I drove home like a ghost behind the wheel, my bloodied shirt sticking to my skin as my mind replayed everything that happened like a cursed film I couldn’t stop. The silence in the house was unbearable. I changed into fresh clothes, but no matter how many times I scrubbed my hands, I still felt the blood there. My father's blood and Tina’s blood.When I returned to the hospital, I went straight to Tina’s room. When I got there, I met three nurses by her side, checking her vitals and adjusting her drip. They turned when I walked in and gave me a small bow.“Good evening, Mr. Johnson.”“How is she?” I asked quietly. “Has she woken up?”One of them shook her head. “No, sir. But she’s responding to treatment. Her pulse is stable.”I nodded and sighed heavily, pressing my fingers against my temple. That was good news. It had to be but I couldn’t ignore the tightness in my chest.What if she doesn’t make it… ?“God, please don’t let

    Alex's My hands wouldn’t stop shaking as I stared at Tina lying in a pool of her own blood. Her chest rose and fell in shallow gasps, and blood stained the floor like something out of a nightmare. "What have I done?" I murmured, my body drenched with sweat.I quickly shoved the gun back into my waistband, my heart pounding louder than the echo of the gunshot still ringing in my ears. My breath came in short, panicked bursts. This isn't supposed to happen. I didn’t mean to shoot her. I didn’t... I swear I didn’t.The door flung open and a group of doctors and nurses rushed in, their eyes wide in horror.“What happened, Mr. Johnson? We heard a gunshot!” one of the doctors asked, his voice sharp and alert.“I... I don’t have time to explain,” I choked, my throat tightening. “Please. Save her. I can’t lose her too. Please…”The look the doctor gave me said he didn’t fully believe me but he didn’t question further. Two nurses hurried over and gently lifted Tina from the floor. She didn’
