  • The Ruthless Billionaire’s Regret   Chapter Fifty

    CHAPTER FIFTYADRIAN’S POVI originally didn’t plan to come with my mum to see Theo and Isabella. After much convincing from her, I finally caved in. My original plan was to go to therapy and get better as much as I could before I got back in contact with Isabella and Theo.I also didn’t plan to ask Isabella to move to Chicago permanently. It just happened. I didn’t regret asking her though. I gave it some thought and it would be a hassle flying back and forth between Manchester and Chicago. If I wanted to be active in Theo's life, I needed him by my side.After our day at the amusement park, my mum and I returned to our hotel after having dinner with Theo and Isabella.“I asked her to move to Chicago permanently.” I told my mum.“Really? What did she have to say about it?” She asked.“Nothing much.” I shrugged my shoulders. “She refused. She said she has a life here.

As Adrian promised, he gave me the money to pay for the repair of my bookstore. I was excited to start working on that.I woke up with a smile on my face and a breath of fresh air.

    CHAPTER FORTY-SEVENADRIAN’S POVI finally gave in to Sebastian’s advice and visited my therapist again. He forced me to have daily sessions with her. I stopped seeing her about two years ago. It felt overwhelming talking about my problems so I decided to quit and just bottle up everything. I’d just finished my third session for the week and was heading back home. I decided to stop by my mother's house. We hadn’t had a chance to talk properly since what happened.I got out of the car and went inside the house. It was a bit dark but my mother wasn’t inside the house. She was in the backyard. It seemed like that was the only place you could find her these days. She had stepped down as CEO and taken a long break. She spent most of her time in the house.I walked up to her. “Mother.” I said.“Adrian.” She turned around. “How are you doing?” She hugged me.“I’m doing well. How’ve you been?”“I’ve been better. I’m definitely feeling the emptiness of Theo and Isabella leaving.”“Yeah.” I si

    CHAPTER FORTY-SIXISABELLA’S POVThings went sideways fast. One minute I was yelling at Adrian and the next minute, his lips were on mine. When I finally registered what was happening I shoved him really hard. Before he had the chance to say anything, I doubled down and slapped him across his cheek.“Isabella.” He held his face.“What the heck is wrong with you? Why would you do that?”“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to.” He apologized. “You just kissed me and you’re sorry? What in the world possessed you to do that?”“I really didn't mean to. It was an honest mistake.”“Get out. I was willing to hear you out but this just threw me off.”“Sorry.” He didn’t fight with me about it anymore. He left the room rubbing his cheek. I touched my lips and I could still feel the imprint of his lips. I shook my head and finished up my packing. We had about four hours until we had to head to the airport. I headed back downstairs. Vivian was in the living room. Theo and Adrian were outside together.“I
