The Billionaire's Biggest Regret Chapter 128
David's POV The nanny arrived at seven, still buttoning her coat, and I handed her Amy's cereal bowl and told her I would be back within an hour. Then I picked up my car keys from the hall table and drove to the police station with the window cracked and my swollen knuckles resting on the wheel.The road was wet from the night's rain, and the sun was a pale smear behind the buildings. I walked past a bakery that was just opening, while a man washed the pavement outside a shop with a hose.Everything looked normal, and somehow, that only made me angrier.At the first red light, I called Nicole. It rang until her voicemail answered.I listened to her recorded voice say her name, and my throat tightened.I tried again at the second light and got the same thing.She thinks I did it.Nicole believed I had joined hands with Tamara to hurt her, and I had handed her every reason to believe it. I had walked out of that dinner without letting her speak. I had accused her of sleeping her way

Tamara's POVThe police office smelled of burnt coffee and old paper. Officers occupied rows of workstations, their voices overlapping as they discussed cases and reviewed digital files. Screens glowed across the room, displaying reports and streams of information. Somewhere behind me, a printer hummed as it processed another batch of documents. An officer hurried past with a file in hand while two others spoke quietly beside their desks. Above them, a digital clock displayed 6:15 a.m.Gray daylight crept through the narrow window, and I sat on a hard plastic chair with my hands folded in my lap and my ankles crossed, trying to look like a woman who had nothing to hide.My mind kept going back to the front door of my house.The bell had rung just as David reached for the handle, one long note that echoed through the hallway while blue and red light swept across the walls. I stood frozen with my phone still warm in my hand. David opened the door, and two officers filled the frame,

Nicole's POV I woke up to the soft ticking of the wall clock and the smell of warm milk drifting through the house. For a moment I did not know where I was. A thin blanket lay over me, my head felt heavy, and gray morning light was creeping through the window.I pushed myself up on one elbow and blinked at the cream curtains and the small shelf of Jayden's picture books.I was on my own couch, in my own living room."You're awake."Emma sat on the tiles with her knees pulled up and a cup of cold tea in her hands. Dark circles hung under her eyes, and her scarf had slipped halfway off her head."How did I get home?" My voice came out rough, and my throat burned when I swallowed."Ethan brought you."My heart skipped so hard that I pressed my palm against my chest. "Ethan? Here?""Last night." She set the cup down on the floor. "He carried you in from the car, and he stayed only a few minutes.""Where is Jayden?" The words tumbled out of me. "Emma, did he see him?""No, don't worry.

Tamara's POV For a moment, nobody moved. The wine glass trembled on the table, and I realized my own hand was the one shaking it.Amy stood at the top of the stairs with her rabbit hanging from her fist, and her wide eyes went from my face to David's and back again.I rose from the arm of the couch and made my voice soft, the way I did when she woke from a bad dream."Honey, you should be asleep.""I heard you shouting." Her chin wobbled. "You said Nicole's name. What did you do to her?""Nothing, baby." I smiled, though my lips felt stiff."Nicole is fine. Mommy and Daddy were only talking about grown up things."Amy looked at David, waiting for him to say I was lying. I saw his jaw tighten, and I saw him look at her small face and swallow whatever he had planned to say. He crossed the room, climbed three steps, and crouched in front of her."Hey, princess," he said gently. "Mommy is right. Everyone is safe, and nobody is in trouble. Come, I will tuck you in.""Promise?""I promis
The Billionaire's Biggest Regret Chapter 124
Tamara's POV I got home a little after three in the morning with mud drying on my heels and river water soaked into the hem of my dress.The nanny had left a lamp on in the hallway, and the whole house was quiet.Amy was asleep upstairs. I stood in the doorway for a moment, listening to the silence, and then I smiled.After all those months, Nicole was gone.I climbed the stairs two at a time and locked the bathroom door behind me. The dress went into the sink, and I scrubbed the stains from my arms until my skin turned pink.I let the hot water run over my hair and watched the brown swirl down the drain, and I did not feel a single pang of guilt. I felt light, like someone who had just put down a very heavy bag after carrying it for years.When I stepped out, I chose the black dress David used to love, the one with the low back and the thin straps.I brushed my hair, applied red lipstick, and dabbed perfume on my wrists.I looked at myself in the mirror, and a woman who had won lo

Emma's POV"Mommy!"Jayden's small voice cut across the porch, and my body moved before my mind caught up. I dropped to my knees on the steps and caught him in both arms just before he reached Nicole, then pulled him against my chest and pressed his head down under my chin. His hair smelled of milk and baby shampoo, and his heart thudded against my ribs like a trapped bird.I looked up at Ethan and made myself smile."My son," I said.My own heart began to pound faster than it ever had. Please don't look too closely. I held Jayden tighter and prayed that this stranger, who was still dripping river water onto our doorstep with Nicole asleep in his arms, would not notice anything strange.Ethan looked at us for a long moment, and then a slow smile spread across his face."He is a cute boy," he said. "He looks just like you."The air left my lungs in a rush. I laughed, and it came out thin and shaky. "People say that all the time."I kept one hand on the back of Jayden's head and pre
