Alexander sat quietly in his office, his fingers drumming lightly against the wooden desk.

His thoughts refused to settle.

Victoria had come.

Left.

And with her departure, she had somehow left him with even more questions than answers.

But one thing remained certain.

Daniel Carter.

If Alexander wanted any chance of understanding what he was up against, he needed to know more about the man.

At least try again, to know more about him.

He reached for his office phone.

“Come in.”

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 154- An Apology Long Overdue

    Amelia had just returned to the office after a hearty lunch with the sweetest man in the world.And the best part?He was hers.A smile lingered on her lips, warm enough to brighten the entire floor. It was almost contagious.The employees who knew about her relationship exchanged knowing smiles as she walked past them, but Amelia couldn’t have cared less.Her thoughts were completely occupied by one man.“I think it’s time I met your parents.”Just remembering Daniel’s words sent another wave of warmth through her chest.Tomorrow.They had decided on tomorrow.It was the weekend, and Daniel would finally meet her family.The thought alone filled her with excitement.She already knew they would adore him.How could they not?He was kind, thoughtful, respectful, funny…Perfect.And finally, she would get an explanation from her parents about why they had hidden Daniel’s identity from her all those years.She smiled to herself.Two birds with one stone.Walking into her office, Amelia s

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 153- Closure

    Daniel was a man of his word.It wasn’t long before he arrived at Hart Corporation to pick Amelia up, and together they headed toward one of the city’s finest Chinese restaurants.The drive there was filled with the same effortless teasing and playful flirting that had quickly become second nature to them.It never got old.Somehow, every conversation with Daniel made Amelia smile.Likewise, Daniel found himself looking over at her every chance he got, still unable to believe she was really his.Soon they arrived at the restaurant.Daniel had already made a reservation, so they were immediately shown to a quiet table near the window.After ordering their meals, the two settled into easy conversation while waiting for the food to arrive.Just then—“Amelia?”The familiar voice made her look up.Her eyes widened slightly.“Alexander?”Standing a few feet away was the man she once believed she would spend the rest of her life with.He looked…Different.His suit was still expensive, but

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 152- Lunch With My Girl

    Daniel would soon realized he wasn’t the only one distracted by love.He simply happened to be the happier victim of it.For what felt like the hundredth time that morning, he caught himself smiling for absolutely no reason as he walked through the grand lobby of Carter Global Holdings.Employees greeted him respectfully as always, but more than one person did a double take.Their usually composed CEO looked…Happy.Genuinely happy.Daniel adjusted the knot of his tie as he stepped into his private office, only to be met by the amused smile of his secretary.“Feeling good today, sir?”Daniel looked up from straightening his cufflinks.“Is it that obvious?”She nodded without hesitation.“Very obvious, sir.”He chuckled, shaking his head.“Well… what can I say?”She folded her arms, pretending to study him.“I’ve worked for you for years.”“I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile this much before ten in the morning.”Daniel laughed again.“I suppose some things are worth smiling about.”

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 151- His doing

    The movie quickly became nothing more than a blur of moving colors and distant voices.Neither of them had any idea what was happening on the screen anymore.Amelia shifted on Daniel’s lap until she was sitting sideways against him, her back resting comfortably against his chest. The warmth of his embrace surrounded her almost instantly, and the familiar scent of cedarwood and fresh linen settled around her like a comforting blanket.For a while, neither of them spoke.Daniel simply held her.His hand rested naturally on her waist, his thumb absentmindedly tracing slow circles against the fabric of her pajamas. Every gentle stroke made Amelia’s heartbeat quicken just a little more.“Daniel…”Her voice was barely above a whisper.“Hm?”She slowly turned in his arms until they were facing each other.Their eyes met.Neither of them looked away.There was laughter lingering between them from only moments before, but something quieter had settled in its place now.Something deeper.Someth

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 150- Safe

    Daniel couldn’t stop smiling as he watched Amelia take another spoonful of lasagna.The moment it touched her tongue, she closed her eyes in pure delight.“That good?” he asked, thoroughly enjoying every one of her reactions.She answered with nothing more than a series of enthusiastic nods before taking another bite.Daniel chuckled.“Then eat some more. I made it for you.”Amelia swallowed before pointing her fork at him.“You know you’re going to spoil me if you keep this up.”“That’s exactly what I intend to do.”There wasn’t the slightest hint of teasing in his voice.He meant every word.Judging by the way Amelia suddenly became interested in her plate, she knew it too.A soft blush slowly crept across her cheeks.Daniel smiled to himself.There was a brief, comfortable silence before he spoke again.“Would you like to stay the night?”Silence.He immediately realized how that might have sounded.“I mean…”He rubbed the back of his neck.“It’s completely alright if you’d rather—

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 149- Trust Me

    Grocery shopping turned out to be far easier than either of them had expected.Between Daniel’s organized shopping list and Amelia’s determination to throw anything that looked appetizing into the cart, they were back at the checkout in no time.“Do we really need all of this?” Daniel asked, raising an eyebrow as he looked at the overflowing basket.“We absolutely do.”“We’re only making lasagna.”“And?”“And lasagna deserves dessert.”Daniel narrowed his eyes playfully.“I don’t remember agreeing to dessert.”Amelia gasped dramatically.“You don’t?”“No.”She pointed toward the freezer section.“Then allow me to convince you.”Before Daniel could stop her, she had already skipped over to the ice cream freezers.A few moments later, she returned triumphantly, holding up a tub of vanilla ice cream.“A light dessert,” she declared proudly.Daniel looked from the ice cream to her hopeful face.“…Light?”She nodded with complete confidence.“Very light.”He laughed.“I don’t think that’s

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 51- The Uncertainty He Can’t Control

    A person’s mind was a fragile thing.Daniel had learned that long ago.It shifted. Bent. Changed direction without warning, like wind slipping through fingers no matter how tightly you tried to hold onto it.And this morning.That was all he could think about.He stared up at the ceiling, eyes open

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 44- The Quiet Isn’t Peace

    The door clicked shut behind her.For a moment, Amelia just stood there, back pressed against it, fingers still wrapped around the handle like she needed something solid to hold onto.The silence inside her apartment felt… different tonight.Too still.Too aware.She exhaled slowly, closing her eye

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 42- The Choice That Doesn’t Settle

    The car door closed with a soft, final click.Amelia leaned back into the seat, her chest still tight, her pulse refusing to slow. The city lights streaked past the window as Daniel eased the car into traffic, the engine’s low hum filling the silence that followed them out of the restaurant.Neithe

  • The Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter 41- What He Didn’t See

    Alexander didn’t remember the drive back.Didn’t remember the turns he took.The lights he passed.The distance he covered.Only that he was sitting in his car now.Still.And alone.The engine had long gone quiet, but he hadn’t made a move to step out. His hands rested loosely on the steering whee
