Elora’s POV

What could that brat be doing here? I couldn’t stop pacing back and forth in my office as I thought of all the possibilities. The air felt heavy as I replayed the scene earlier in my head. That witch, holding my son and smiling like she had good intentions toward him. Only the heavens could know what evil thought she had concerning him.

I exhaled slowly, steadying my thoughts. I had to go to Zane to find out. I couldn’t just sit around and wait. I hurried to his office and opened the door with force.

Zane looked up at me with raised eyebrows. “Can’t you knock?”

I folded my arms and didn’t answer.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were meeting Zara? If my sources didn’t tell me she came here, I wouldn’t have known.”

“Your sources…Are you spying on me now? Is that how paranoid you have gotten?”

I dropped my hands to my side, looking for the right words to say. “You left me no choice. You’ve been quiet and more distant since Zara came back, and you don’t expect me to be watchful o

    Elora’s POVI was silent all through the rest of the day at work and the ride home. I couldn’t possibly answer Lucas's question, so I waved it away with a smile and a weak joke that I had too much paperwork on my mind. But I knew he was too smart to fall for that. We were the first to get home that night. I didn’t need anyone to inform me that Zane wasn’t home because I couldn’t see his car. Typical Zane. He has always had the attitude of running away and leaving everything behind when things didn’t go his way. He was probably drunk in some stinking bar. I couldn’t care less if the worst happened to him.On entering the house, the aroma of one of the foods I hated more than death gripped my nostrils. It was even more nauseating than the thought of Zane. It was the thick scent of Cioppino. I froze in the doorway, my stomach already rebelling. There was only one person who always made that food like it was some divine offering. Mrs Shane. My fake mum. She had access to our house even wh

  • The Untouchable Heiress He Regrets Losing   “Trust Me”

    The door slammed shut behind Elora and Zane, the echo resounding in my office. The room fell into an uneasy silence, one that made swallowing saliva the loudest thing in that moment. Leo stared at me, not saying a word since they left. He stood there, a few feet away, hands in the pockets of his grey suit, and his expression unreadable. The tension between us was so thick that it pressed against my skin. I looked up to meet the storm brewing in his eyes. “What was that?” He finally broke the silence, his voice low and sharp, slicing through the still air.My mouth went dry then I looked up to meet his cold gaze. “It’s not what it looks like, Leo.”He laughed dryly and stepped closer, his expensive shoes clicking against the marble floor. “Oh really? He asked, raising an eyebrow. “Because from where I stood, I was pretty sure I overheard Elora saying Zane wants to divorce her to be with you, and you didn’t exactly object to it.”I opened my mouth, closed it, and then said the only thi

  • The Untouchable Heiress He Regrets Losing   Behind Closed Doors

    Elora’s POVCoincidentally finding myself in the hallway leading to Zara’s office led to the worst turn of events. I saw Zane check his reflection in the mirrored wall outside Zara’s office before running his hand through his perfectly styled jet black hair. I smiled, thinking he was on his way to me to finally appease me or apologize for the recent events, but my smile was immediately wiped off when I saw him head towards Zara’s office. That snake!I followed quietly at his back until I saw him enter her office, and Zara’s assistant left there a minute after. I froze, my back pressed to the chill wall, wondering how he dared to chase her in broad daylight when any of the office workers could clearly see them. There was a sharp pang in my chest as I thought of all the possibilities that could go on in her office between the two of them. Then I tiptoed to the front of her door and placed my ear gently on the door to hear something implicating. He started begging her. I was star-struck

    Zara’s POV“You guys kissed?!” Mia screamed.“Shhhh…Someone might hear you!” I said, placing my index finger on my lips.“Girl! This is straight out of a Wattpad fantasy.” A wide grin on her face followed.Looking like she still wanted to scream, she pressed her hands against her lips tightly to avoid it.“And it wasn’t a kiss,” I continued in defence.She smirked and looked me in the eye. “If it wasn’t a kiss, what was it, Zara?”I looked sideways, eyes raking my office as though the answer to her question was written somewhere on the wall. “Well…” I cleared my throat. “It was just my lips collapsing into his. A kiss would be more…” I placed my fingers on my lips, unknowingly caressing them. “More intentional, tongue intertwining, hot and desperate enough to–”“Are we still talking about a kiss here?” She asked with furrowed brows and folded arms that made me snap back into reality.I didn't know why I had still been unable to get it out of my head. I knew telling Mia about it would

    Zara’s POV*Later that night at the house*A light, too bright, shone through the window, so I had to use my hands to shield my eyes. “Leo?” I called out, confused. “Did you order something?” He didn’t answer.I went over to the window to check who it might be. Oh shit. It was my Dad. I bent a little lower to avoid being seen from outside as I walked briskly to where Leo was. His ears were plugged, which explained why he didn’t hear me the first time.He saw me rushing towards him and took off his earpods, looking at me with furrowed brows. “Zara?” “What are you doing? He asked. “We have a situation,” I said, voice shaking.He narrowed his eyes. “What situation?” “My Dad is here.” “What?!” He immediately started scanning the room, eyes bulging. “He’s still outside. He just drove in. ”“What do we do?”“ And you didn’t give me a heads-up?”“I literally just found out, Leo. He gave me zero warning. I saw him through the window. He should be heading towards the front door by now. ”

  • The Untouchable Heiress He Regrets Losing   A Game of Dark Minds

    Leo’s POVThe boardroom of Wesley Group was saddled with quiet tension when the meeting commenced. Although it was well anticipated, as this wasn’t the usual meeting but a proposal meeting for the upcoming sixtieth anniversary of Wesley group. All managers, directors, and investors have gathered, faces sharp and battle-ready. It was the first meeting since Zara and I were welcomed into Wesley group, so there were a few head turns here and there towards us. It wasn’t my first time in the board room, though. I had often come with my father, Brad, to watch how to be a leader and learn how to pitch to investors. Those were the only valuable things I learnt from him.I glanced briefly at Zara seated beside, and as always, she was calm and collected as she rhythmically tapped on her tablet. Zane and Elora came in hand in hand and took their seat. That was strange because the report Kelvin had been giving was that they were at loggerheads since Zara came back and drove a wedge between them.
