That weekend, Kane personally cooked breakfast for Aria.

"It's delicious!" Aria's eyes lit up with delight after just one spoonful of the creamy oatmeal.

"Then have more. You've lost weight lately," Kane said, brushing his hand against her cheek with a faint frown.

Ever since her pregnancy began, Aria hadn't gained much. Whatever little weight she'd put on would vanish within days, leaving only her belly growing rounder.

"Really?" She flashed him a playful smile. "That's great! After the baby, I won't even need to worry about dieting."

"I'd rather you put on a few pounds." Kane shot her a look, then softened, ruffling her hair. "Were you like this when you were pregnant with Basia?"

"Hmm… pretty much." Aria hesitated, then left it at that.

He could tell she was holding something back. His voice dropped lower, smoother, brushing against her like velvet. "Aria, tell me. Please?"

That deep, magnetic tone was unfair—downright criminal. And when he leaned in close, letting warm breath tick

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   Frank, What Are You Doing?

    Frank had trained in various martial arts since he was young: Taekwondo, Judo, Karate, Boxing,—if it was useful for fighting, he’d learned it.And he had become quite good at all of them. The reason was that, as a child, he was weak, and his family thought these arts would help him become healthier.As far as fighting went, Frank had never lost, except for the time he fought Kane, and that had ended in a draw.Mona’s personality wasn’t the type to give in easily. Frank had hoped that by beating her, he could suggest that they sleep in the same bed.But who would have thought that despite Frank looking pretty battered with bruises on his face, Mona managed to knock him down with a swift leg sweep.Frank cursed under his breath and glared at Mona, who was looking down at him with a slightly amused expression."I’m done!" Frank grumbled, rubbing his left eye, his tone sulky. "It’s not like I can’t sleep on the floor. You’re a woman, so I let you have the bed!"He had never expected Mona,

    However, due to the fight earlier, the rice balls were no longer in perfect shape."Is this for me?" Frank asked, a little dazed.His voice carried an almost smug tone, and Mona immediately denied it, not even thinking twice. "No way! I’m saving it for a late-night snack!"Frank narrowed his eyes when she immediately rejected it. "You finished your dinner already?" He slid his arm around her shoulders and leaned in, asking in a teasing tone.Mona instinctively nodded, then caught the strange smile on his face. She finally realized what he meant."I have a big appetite, so when I’m done eating, I’m hungry again. Is that a problem?" Mona bit her lip and emphasized it again.Frank chuckled. "Fine." Since she stubbornly refused to admit it, he didn't push the matter further. Instead, he unwrapped the rice ball and began eating slowly.When the elevator arrived on their floor, Mona quickly walked out of the elevator, trying to act casual. However, when she glanced back and saw Frank eating

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   Where Should We Hide for the Night?

    Mona pulled Frank's hand as they ran down two blocks. After checking several times to ensure no one was following them, she finally let out a sigh of relief.Once her heart rate slowed and she wasn’t so out of breath, Mona suddenly slapped her forehead."Uh oh! Kane’s still back there!"Seeing Mona about to run back, Frank was quick to act. He grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms."Don’t underestimate my buddy. Kane's not stupid!" Frank’s voice held a hint of annoyance as he pulled her back. "He’s just drawing them away for us!""But, do you think he’ll be okay?" Mona asked, her voice laced with concern as she stayed pressed against him.The warmth of her breath on his face made Frank feel a twist in his gut. He had just taken out that old man’s hand for her, and she hadn’t even asked if he was okay, instead worrying about Kane. It left a bitter feeling in his chest.“Say something!” Mona shifted in his arms, looking up at him anxiously.Frank’s grip on her loosened for a mom

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   I Wonder What It Feels Like to Touch

    Mona pursed her lips. She wasn't afraid of these men, but she didn’t want to cause trouble for Frank.When she remained silent, the older man thought she was intimidated. He chuckled darkly and stepped toward her."Such a pretty little thing. I knew you were my type the moment I saw you," he said, reaching out to touch her face. "Hmm, this soft little face... I wonder what it feels like to touch?"The group behind him laughed crudely at his words. Their leering expressions made it clear that they were enjoying the scene. To them, Mona was just another defenseless girl, weak and easily intimidated.But when Mona caught the old man's hand before it could touch her face, no one took it seriously. They thought she had finally come around, ready to fall into his arms.After all, with Mona’s stunning face and seductive figure, she seemed like the kind of woman who frequented bars, someone easy to manipulate.What they didn’t expect, however, was that instead of offering herself up, she twis

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   What Are You Trying to Do?

    Mona had heard plenty about Kane's infamous reputation.From what she gathered, it seemed like every couple of days a new girl was being abandoned by him, throwing a dramatic tantrum, crying, and making a scene.Now that she saw him in person and recalled his earlier flirtatious behavior, Mona couldn’t help but force a smile. "I’ve heard a lot about you!"Kane blinked, looking over at Frank with a confused look, as if asking for clarification.Frank, however, didn’t respond. He simply wrapped his arm around Mona and started walking off."Hey! Forget loyalty for a pretty face, huh?" Kane muttered under his breath, tapping his chin, clearly amused.Thinking about Frank's unusual behavior earlier, Kane smirked. "Still say there's nothing fishy going on? This is dripping with tension, Frank. Tsk, tsk, you're not as innocent as you make out!"Kane mumbled to himself as he watched Frank and Mona head to the spot they had been sitting earlier. With a shrug, he followed them, leisurely."Sorr

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   He’s Just Like That, Don’t Mind Him

    Mona set her phone aside, swallowing the bite of food in her mouth before muttering, "I’m not your sidekick."Since agreeing to Frank’s arrangement, Mona hadn’t had much trouble lately. However, her freedom had been significantly restricted. Outside of classes and her part-time job, she spent most of her free time with Frank.Whether it was running errands for him, like delivering things or returning books to the library, or just grabbing lunch and taking walks, her days revolved around him.In the first few days, some girls had confessed to Frank. Without missing a beat, Frank had taken them straight to Mona, holding her hand in front of them to show off their “relationship” and sending the girls away.But recently, Mona had found herself simply following Frank around, doing little else of significance."Sidekick?" Frank laughed lightly, his expression darkening. "Mona, don’t forget, you’re my girlfriend."Girlfriend? It’s not even real!Mona bit her lip, unsure how to respond. With
