CHAPTER SIXTEEN

ADRIAN’S POV

“Wow. I really thought you forgot about her too. Had no idea you kept in touch with her.” I leaned back in my seat.

He shook his head in disappointment. I didn’t know how I’d managed to forget about her. How could I forget that I’d gotten someone pregnant? I wondered how she would react to seeing me after all these years.

  • The Ruthless Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter Seventy Four

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOURADRIAN’S POVI didn’t know what came over me when I kissed Isabella instead of saying goodnight to her and getting back to my car. I half expected her to push and slap me as she had done before. I blamed my actions on all the drinks I’d taken that night and the fact that I’d been sex starved for a while.I didn’t regret doing what I did though. I’d been wanting to get into Isabella’s pants again for the longest time. I thought if we fucked and got it over with, I’d be able to get her out of the back of my mind.After our first round on the bed, I took her to the bathroom to clean her off but I ended up bending her over the sink and burying myself deep into her again. We got out of the shower and she was out like a light. I didn’t sleep though, I couldn’t. She rested her head on my bare chest while our legs tangled together. I stared at the ceiling while she slept. The only thing that could be heard in the dark room was her shallow breathing.My phone rang from th

He didn’t care when I wanted to leave the party earlier but he suddenly cared when I told him Adrian was going to take me home.I didn’t trust him fully. I tried to ask him about how he got his invitation but he dismissed me. Adrian warned him off me and took me to his car.We sat quietly in the backseat of his car while he gave the driver instructions on where to go. All of the car ride was silent.

It was uncomfortable.After about 30 minutes, we stopped in front of my apartment. “Thanks for bringing me home.” I said.He got out of the car and came around to open my door for me. “You’re welcome. Anytime.”I smiled at him. “I’ll see you later.”I took a few steps to the door.“I’ll walk you up. To make sure you get home safely.” He said behind me before he caught up with me.I nodded and we walked side b

  • The Ruthless Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter Seventy Two

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWOADRIAN’S POVI thought my mind was playing tricks on me when my eyes moved through the crowd during my speech and I saw Isabella. I shook my head to get rid of my hallucinations and focus on giving my speech.After I got down from the stage I made my way back to my seat. I sat through the video presentation and the pianist’s presentation without thinking about Isabella again.The first part of dinner was served and I caught sight of someone leaving the hall. It looked like Isabella.“I’ll be back.” I said to Sebastian.“Where are you going?” He asked but I didn’t respond. I was already out of my seat and following behind the woman I thought was Isabella.She was getting close to the main doors.“Isabella.” I called out. She stopped in her tracks and turned around. “You’re really here. I thought I was dreaming or something. What are you doing here?”“I was invited.” She answered.“By who?” I asked. I didn’t think Nathaniel would put her on the guest list. I didn’t e

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONEISABELLA’S POVI didn’t want to agree to attend the event with Julius as his plus one. Especially after he told me he missed our family and wanted us to get back together. I didn’t want to entertain that idea and make him think there was a chance of us getting back together. I found myself agreeing to go because of one person. Adrian. The only reason I agreed to be Julius’ plus one was because of Adrian. I convinced myself I was doing it to spite him but I knew I was doing it for another reason entirely.I dropped Theo off at Vivian’s place after picking him up from school and went back home to start getting ready for the event. I didn’t know what the event was about. I only knew to dress formally. I’d gone shopping for a new dress after I confirmed it with Julius.The event started at 7pm and by 6:20pm, I was ready and waiting for Julius to pick me up. He texted me and said he had arrived at my building. I didn’t want him to waste his time coming up so I rushed d

  • The Ruthless Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter Sixty Nine

    CHAPTER SIXTY-NINEISABELLA’S POVAfter almost three weeks of being in the hospital, I was finally cleared to go home. My mother and Jess who were supposed to leave weeks before had stayed until I was out of the hospital. They had to leave eventually. “Are you sure you don’t want to come with us?” My mother asked.“No. I’ve made that clear from the very first day you asked.” I answered in annoyance. She sighed. “You have to think reasonably. You’ve been kidnapped twice in your entire life and it’s all because of that man. I get he’s rich and he’s the father of your son but you don't have to be stuck with him. You can leave the child here and come back with us.”“I wasn’t kidnapped. I already told you that. I was attacked in the parking lot of my workplace.” I’d been trying to convince her for the past few weeks that I wasn’t actually kidnapped.“You don’t have to lie to me.
