The Billionaire's Regret After I Died Chapter 31: George’s Motivations
George’s POVRachel’s recovery had gone far better than any of us expected.The doctors said she was healing fast, but it wasn’t just her body that changed, it was everything about her. The way she carried herself, the way she spoke, even the silence between her words felt different.After the surgeries, I set up a small exercise studio for her at home. She had moved in permanently after being discharged. It was the safest place for her to recover without worrying about the outside world or being recognized. The house was quiet, secure, and private, and it gave her the space she needed to heal both physically and mentally.The studio wasn’t much, just a polished wooden floor, a mirrored wall, and a small speaker system tucked neatly in the corner, but it became her space. At first, it was meant for rehabilitation and physical therapy, a way to ease her joints and rebuild her strength. But she took to it quickly, faster than anyone expected.She started learning dance as part of her re
The Billionaire's Regret After I Died Chapter 30: The Rebirth
Rachel’s POVWhen I woke up again, there was only pain. It came before sight, before sound, sharp, unrelenting, spreading like fire under my skin. My face felt tight, stretched too thin, the air itself too heavy to breathe.I tried to move, but a nurse’s voice stopped me. “Don’t. You’re all right. It’s over.”The doctors had already completed the skin grafts and a few small procedures, subtle changes meant to remove the marks that made me recognizable.The mole near my lip was gone. A faint scar at my temple erased. The edge of my jaw softened. None of it was done for the purpose of beauty. It was meant to make ‘Rachel’ disappear.The pain pulsed in slow, steady waves beneath my skin. But it wasn’t the same kind of pain anymore. This pain meant something was changing, something was beginning again.Through the haze, I heard another voice, deeper, steadier. “I’m here,” George said quietly. “It’s done now.”I wanted to answer, to tell him I was fine, but my throat burned too much to for
The Billionaire's Regret After I Died Chapter 29: The Beginning of Revenge
Rachel’s POVI left the Parker estate through the side gate, the same one I’d slipped in through hours earlier. The air outside was colder than I remembered, sharp enough to sting. My borrowed uniform clung to my skin, stiff with sweat and sugar dust.Behind me, the laughter was fading, muffled by walls and distance, but it still followed me like an echo I couldn’t shake. Every sound from that party felt carved into my skull, Amber’s giggles, the applause, Marissa’s trembling “yes.”I walked faster.By the time I reached the empty street, my hands were shaking. I dug into my pocket for the spare key George had given me, and instead, my fingers brushed against something hard and familiar.The ring. My wedding ring. I’d kept it without realizing why.When I left the hospital months ago, it had been tucked in the bottom of my bag, a habit, a piece of me which I couldn’t quite bury. I told myself I’d throw it away when I was ready. But I never did.And after what I saw tonight, I finally
The Billionaire's Regret After I Died Chapter 28: The Footage
Adrian’s POVThe guests had long gone, leaving behind only the faint echo of laughter and the smell of extinguished candles. The lights in the hall were dim now, their golden glow flickering across half-empty glasses and scattered flower petals.I sat in the living room, still in my suit, staring at the untouched whiskey on the coffee table.The house finally felt quiet again, too quiet.Upstairs, I heard the faint creak of a door closing, followed by footsteps coming down the stairs. Marissa appeared a moment later, the silk of her gown catching the light as she descended gracefully. Her makeup was slightly smudged from the long day, but her expression was still soft and composed.“She’s asleep,” she said lightly.I looked up. “Amber?”She smiled, coming to sit beside me on the couch. “Yes. We talked a bit before she drifted off.” She rested a hand on my arm, her tone turning gentle.“I told her about us, our engagement and what it meant. She was so happy, Adrian. She said she always
The Billionaire's Regret After I Died Chapter 27: When Masks Slip
Rachel’s POVThe last time I stood at the gates of the Parker estate, I still lived there.Now, I was just another shadow among the catering staff.Getting in wasn’t easy. George had warned me against it, told me it was reckless. But I couldn’t stay away. Not when it was Amber’s birthday. Not when the thought of her smiling inside that house without me felt unbearable.So I found a way. A borrowed uniform. A forged staff badge. A name that wasn’t mine.The catering company had been short-staffed that morning, and I slipped in quietly with the rest of them, head down, mask on, pretending to belong. The wig itched beneath my cap, and my gloved hands shook as I carried a tray of champagne flutes through the marb
The Billionaire's Regret After I Died Chapter 26: A Mother’s Absence
Marissa’s POVFrom across the room, I watched Amber and Adrian as they chatted away.Amber sat on the rug, her little pink dress rumpled, clutching that ridiculous doll in her lap. Adrian was crouched beside her, brushing her hair away from her face as she whispered something to him. I couldn’t hear every word, but I caught enough.“... Mama …..”“I miss her.”“...Me too.”Rachel. Always Rachel.Even now, after everything, the party, the proposal, the attention, he still lets that woman’s name hang around like a ghost. His shoulders softened when Amber spoke, his expression shifting into something distant, tender, unreachable.My jaw tightened.To everyone else, the day had been perfect. But to me, it had been exhausting. Pretending, smiling, making sure every camera caught my good side while watching the man I loved drift further away in plain sight.Soon the guests began to leave. Their laughter and perfume lingered briefly in the air before the doors closed and the house settled in
