I froze against the wall, my heart slamming against my ribs so hard I feared they could hear it. The flash drive was still clutched tightly in my hand. Sophia’s voice had been clear poison. They were actually poisoning Dominic. The man I still loved despite everything was being slowly destroyed, and I was the only one who knew.

“Anna?” Sophia called again, her heels clicking closer to the door. I know you’re out there. Come out now.

Panic surged through me. I slipped the flash drive back into m

  • The Billionaire's biggest regret    CHAPTER 15

    Darkness swallowed me whole, pulling me under like a heavy tide. The last thing I remembered was Dr. Anthony’s calm face as he injected something into my IV line, the cold rush spreading through my veins. Then nothing.When I woke, the hospital room was dim, lit only by the soft glow of monitors. My body felt heavy, like it belonged to someone else. The sharp pain in my abdomen had dulled to a deep, throbbing ache. I slowly turned my head, wincing at the movement. Dominic sat in a chair beside the bed, his head bowed, hands clasped tightly together. Grace stood near the window, staring out into the night. Sophia was nowhere in sight.“Dominic…” My voice came out as a weak rasp.He lifted his head instantly, eyes red-rimmed with exhaustion and something deeper conflict. “Anna. You’re awake. The doctors… they managed to stabilize you. The bleeding has slowed.”I instinctively moved my hand to my stomach. The fetal monitor was still attached, its steady, faint beeps the most beautiful so

  • The Billionaire's biggest regret    CHAPTER 14

    The monitor’s long, piercing beep filled the hospital room like a death knell. My heart seized as I stared at the screen, watching the weak, flickering line that represented my baby’s heartbeat grow fainter by the second.“No! Please, not my baby!” I cried out, trying to sit up despite the sharp pain tearing through my abdomen. Tears streamed down my face as nurses rushed around me, their voices overlapping in urgent medical jargon.Dr. Anthony moved with calculated precision, barking orders. “We’re looking at a threatened miscarriage. Get the ultrasound machine ready. Administer magnesium sulfate immediately to stop the contractions.” His eyes met mine for a brief second, cold and warning. He was in complete control here no one would question him.Grace Thomas pushed past Sophia and stood at the foot of my bed, her perfectly styled hair and expensive coat making her look out of place among the chaos. Her sharp eyes narrowed as she took in the scene: me bleeding, hooked to machines, a

    “No…” I whispered, my voice breaking as terror flooded through me. Warm blood continued to trickle down my leg, soaking into my clothes. The pain in my abdomen was no longer a warning—it was a scream. My baby. After years of being told I could never have one, this tiny life was slipping away right in front of the people who had caused all my suffering.I gripped the banister tighter, my knuckles turning white, trying to stay upright. The world tilted slightly as I looked down at Dominic, Sophia, and Dr. Anthony standing in the foyer like judges ready to sentence me.Dominic’s face shifted from anger to shock. For a brief moment, I saw a flicker of the man I married the one who used to hold me when I was scared. “Anna? What’s happening? Are you hurt?”Sophia stepped forward quickly, her hand on Dominic’s arm. “She’s faking it again, darling. Look at her always the victim. Dr. Anthony is right here. He can check her.”Dr. Anthony nodded smoothly, already climbing the stairs with his med

    I turned and ran, my bare feet slapping against the cold marble floor of the hallway. Dr. Anthony’s footsteps thundered behind me, surprisingly fast for a man his age. The syringe in his hand gleamed under the lights as he chased me.“Anna, stop this nonsense!” he shouted, his voice no longer calm and professional. “You’re only making it worse for yourself!”My heart pounded wildly as I darted into the kitchen, knocking over a chair to slow him down. The pain in my lower abdomen flared with every step, a sharp reminder of the tiny life I was now fighting to protect. I couldn’t let him inject me with whatever was in that syringe. It wasn’t a sedative. It was something far more sinister—another way to end my pregnancy like he had done before without me even knowing.I grabbed a heavy frying pan from the counter, holding it up like a weapon. “Stay away from me!” I yelled, my voice trembling but determined. “I know what you did. The fake diagnosis, the pills, the miscarriages. You and Sop

  • The Billionaire's biggest regret    CHAPTER 11

    The front door clicked shut behind Dominic and Sophia, leaving the mansion eerily silent. I stood frozen in the kitchen, the breakfast dishes still in my hands. Dr. Anthony was coming. The man who had ruined my life for years the one who had lied about my infertility, who had secretly ended pregnancies I never knew I was carrying was on his way here, while I was completely alone.My hands trembled as I set the plates down. The pain in my lower abdomen had become a constant companion, a quiet reminder that I was no longer barren. I was pregnant. Carrying the child Dominic and I had dreamed of for so long. But revealing it now would put both me and the baby in immediate danger.I had to act fast. The flash drive was gone, taken by Dominic, but I had seen enough of its contents to know the truth. Dr. Anthony Black and Sophia were working together. They had been from the beginning. The poison in Dominic’s system was making him weaker every day, turning him into someone I barely recognized

  • The Billionaire's biggest regret    CHAPTER 10

    The door splintered with a loud crack under Dominic’s powerful kick. I pressed myself against the desk, the flash drive clutched desperately in my fist. My heart pounded so violently it felt like it might burst from my chest. There was nowhere to run. The study window was too high, and the only exit was now blocked by the two people who wanted me gone.Sophia burst in first, her silk robe swirling around her like a dark cloud. Her eyes immediately locked onto my hand. “What are you hiding, you little thief? Give it to me!”Dominic followed, his face a mask of rage and confusion. The dim light from the laptop screen cast harsh shadows across his features, making him look almost unrecognizable from the man I once loved. “Anna, what the hell is this? Sneaking into my study in the middle of the night? After everything that happened tonight?”I tried to slip the flash drive into my sleeve, but Sophia was faster. She lunged forward and grabbed my wrist, twisting it painfully until I gasped.
