The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 39
Nathan’s POV Weekday mornings were always structured for me. This one however was quite the opposite. I couldn’t sleep all night.The city outside my penthouse was quiet, it had that bluish haze just before sunrise. Emma slept peacefully beside me. After our fight the other day, I’ve been trying so hard to please her every chance I get. But my mind always drifted back to Emily. How she was now married to Luca. How it was going to be unbearable having them around constantly because I’d be partnering with their company. The more I tried to hide my jealousy and anger, the more it clouded my mind. My jaw tightened as I stood beside the window, holding a glass of water I had barely touched. Nothing about my life seemed normal since the day she left. My mind wandered to the night of the gala. How I lost control and was nearly begging her to come back to me. Was it my ego or did I genuinely miss her?I heard small footsteps behind me. Then a soft hug followed immediately after. It was E
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 38
Emily’s POVThe city moved faster than it should have. I was trying so hard not to look back. I could feel my heart pounding in my throat. I leaned my head against the window of the car, my arms wrapped around myself. The scene kept replaying in my head like it was registered in my memory. My mother’s laughter, my father’s peace, and the little girl’s eyes. I pulled out my phone from inside my bag. My fingers were hovering around the screen before finally opening the photo. As I zoomed in, I noticed a birthmark that ran in our family. It was on her left cheek. She was definitely my sister’s daughter. My chest tightened again. “Are you okay ma’am?” The driver asked. He’d been giving me glances since the incident with my parents. “I’m fine,” I said quickly, adjusting myself into the seat. But really, I wasn’t fine. By the time we got to the hotel, my chest was pounding even harder. I barely remembered thanking the driver as I stepped out of the car. The elevator ride felt lon
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 37
Nathan’s POVThe gala didn’t go as expected. Seeing Emily there with him was infuriating. I watched him rub his hands all over her like she belonged to him. Emma, on the other hand, was more focused on attracting more investors than on meddling in any sort of drama.Now that she’d become a mom, her utmost priority was our daughter, Lara. She’d sworn that she’d do everything to protect her and provide for her. We’d dropped Lara with her grandparents for the weekend, so we could focus on the gala. Emma’s parents were more than happy to receive her, especially since they had already lost Emily. I stretched my hands in the air before getting out of bed. Emma was nowhere to be seen. Soon enough a notification lit up my screen. It was a text from her. [ I’ve gone to see some friends, I’d pick Lara up from my parents when I’m done.] I gave a thumbs up to the message. She’d been avoiding a conversation since the gala. Maybe she actually felt guilty for betraying her sister and taking he
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 36
Emily’s POVThe morning light in New York always felt warm. But to me, it reminded me of my troubled past. I stood by the window, watching cars go by. Three years ago, I left this city for good and now, I was contemplating coming back for work. My hands curled around the mug as I took a sip of coffee to my mouth. Back then, everything unraveled too fast. The cheating, the betrayal, my sister, and the press conference that sealed everything. The NDA had been clear. Silence in exchange for an apartment so he could do damage control. Even if that didn’t work out, Tara got the apartment. My phone buzzed beside me. [Are you still coming?] I read the message with a small smile on my face before texting back. [Send me the address, I’ll be there soon.] As I dropped my phone, I felt Luca wrap his arms around my waist. “Who’s making my love smile on her phone this morning?” He asked. I let out a small chuckle before turning around. “It’s Tara,” I responded. “I’m going to see her tod
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 35
Emily’s POV “Is anything the matter?” Luca’s voice cut across the hallway. “Nothing,” I answered as I walked toward him.As I walked away from Nathan, I could feel his eyes watching me closely. It made me uncomfortable. It had been three years since I last had an encounter with him. I had no idea why I still felt this way. I didn’t love him anymore. My body however, didn’t forget to respond to his touch. I took a deep breath to pull myself together. “What was he saying to you?” Luca asked. His hands were tighter on my waist. I could tell he was jealous. I took a deep breath before answering. “He wasn’t saying anything important. Let’s not talk about it.”He replied. “I don’t want him to hurt you anymore. Otherwise, I’ll break his hands.”I didn’t laugh. Neither did I respond. I knew Luca well enough to know that he’d actually do it. We got back to the main auditorium a few minutes later. Emma stood at the far end, scheming and talking to investors. I didn’t care, I just wante
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 34
Chapter 34 Nathan’s POV Emma and I arrived at the Gala at exactly 6pm. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The cameras flashed at us the minute we stepped out of the black SUV. Emma wore a beautiful gold dress and elegant jewelry. All eyes were on her. She loved the attention and she knew exactly how to draw it.“Over here, sir.” One man from the paparazzi shouted. We paused for a second before going into the building. “Smile. They’re looking at us.” Emma murmured as she wrapped her hand around my arm.I was too distracted by the ambience of the building to focus on what she was saying. I scanned the room to look for investors, business partners, and of course Luca. Our eyes met for a second before he turned back. “Who are you looking at? Emma asked intrigued. “Luca,” I responded, pointing at him. “That’s him?” She added. “Yes. That’s my annoying business partner.” I replied. He took another glance in my direction but this time at Emma. Her expression changed, just for a
