Eyes darting toward the phone, I could feel the anger slowly reminding my whole being that it was still there.

How could he look so happy?

The smiles on their faces, the ring that Minty was showing off, and everything about their engagement made me think that what I had done these past few years wasn't enough.

They should be grieving for the reign that I took away. They should be repenting for the sins they had committed. Cadmus should be regretting how he betrayed me!

They don't deserve to be happy after my mom died in the cruelest possible way—alone and hurt.

This is unfair. I still live by the consequences of what they had done, but they're out there, happily planning for their wedding.

My child had to go without us on that damn plane. While theirs was already free! They managed to fool the people into

believing that Cadmus and I were already over when Minty got pregnant.

Oh, Cadmus, I will rip that smile off your face once I return.

"Are you alright?" Percival probed.

  • To Make A Billionaire Regret   Epilogue: Part One

    Percival had taken on the task of preparing our girl’s birthday party. It was such a sight to see my husband being wrapped around Lia’s little finger. I remembered him going pale when we found out we were having a girl, but he turned out to be so good at looking after her–not that it was a surprise.​Marcus was the happiest when Lia was born. He said he’d never have to play alone again, and he wouldn’t be too sad when Percival and I were away. He’d grown up a bunch since then, even talking about how he wanted to join Percival’s meetings because he needed to be prepared for when his father retires. It was nice seeing him out of his shell.​“I’m just waiting for Marcus’ classes to be over, and then we’ll head over to the boutique,” I told Percy through the phone.​“Guess I’ll see you at the party, love,” he said with a sigh.​He didn’t have to say it. I knew he missed me. Our schedule has been busy lately with Lia turning five, and this was her first big party.​The agency also pre

    Something was wrong. I unconsciously stepped closer to her, my concern pushing me forward. But she raised a hand at me as soon as she noticed."They want to take my son. They want to leave me with nothing." Minty looked over her shoulder at the view of the city behind her. "I wanted a glimpse of your world. It's beautiful up here, isn't it?"The air left my lungs when I saw her standing too close to the balustrade, her hands clasping it from behind. There was just something unsettling about the way she gazed into the distance.“What are you doing?” I asked calmly, but my voice still betrayed what I truly felt. “Minty, what are y–”"Don't," she said. "Don't move. Don't look at me like that. I would've hurt you if I had the means. But I have no money, nothing, to even lay a finger on you. So, don't look scared for me."My chest tightened, and my breath came out ragged when I realized what she was doing. “Don’t–” I tried to say, but the words got stuck in my throat. This couldn’t be happ

    KATALINAThe baby shower was about to start, so I sent my husband a text telling him to hurry up. We wanted to keep it private, so we only invited close friends and family. They decided to set it up in the penthouse, with Grace and Raya taking over the preparations. Esther was tasked to keep the 'mother', aka me, entertained while they worked.We had just arrived at the lobby when I saw a familiar face outside. The guards seemed to be driving her away, but Minty stood there like a corpse, ignoring their words and shoves.I knew I should walk away and pretend I didn’t see her. But something about the empty look in her eyes made me halt. It was clear to anyone who had eyes that she wasn’t faring well. Minty had lost a lot of weight, her face pale and resigned. For the first time in a long time, I didn’t stop myself from pitying her.With a sigh, I walked to the entrance and made my way toward her.“Kat, where are you going?” Esther asked as she quickly followed behind me. “Wait, is that

    Seven months later. I swore to protect Katalina and Marcus from any harm. It was a promise I'd honor until my last breath, so I kept everyone who tried under tight surveillance. Helena was still rotting in jail. I didn't need to keep an eye on Cadmus because the media had it covered for me. His divorce from Minty completely diverted the public's eyes away from Marcus. Everyone was in check. Except I didn't feel completely at ease yet. Helena's insistence that someone else wanted my wife dead, that whoever it was hated Tali more than she did, stayed in my mind for months. But I didn't want to let it linger, so I had Andrew look into it.It could've been empty threats, but I knew how Helena worked. She kept pawns. She'd poison people's minds and use them against her enemies. Everyone told me that Helena probably meant Natalie and that the last stunt Natalie pulled was the end of it. But it wouldn't hurt to be safe, especially when I think I knew who Helena meant. "I can see the gears

    Percival held my hand, his stance protective and impatient to get us out. If the bodyguards wouldn't scare Natalie away, Percival's hardened expression would. The way the veins popped out told me he was frustrated he couldn't deal with Natalie himself."Don't let her get away," Percival said. A few guards left to help search for Natalie, while enough stayed to keep us surrounded. "We'll catch her this time," I said, hoping to ease some of the tension radiating from him. But even as he nodded, I knew it didn't help much. "Of course, we will. Your cousin isn't very bright," he said, his jaw clenching. The crowd was contained at some part of the venue, so the hallways weren't littered with the media. We reached the parking lot. They checked the car before Percival opened the backseat for me. "Get in," he said, his voice authoritative. I quickly hopped in, scooting over to give space for him. Our actions were fast and efficient, and we were on the road in a heartbeat. Percival didn'

    Percival's hand pressed against the small of my back, his head tilted towards me, studying me as I read the article."It's from an anonymous account. Chester is working on taking it down," he said. "What do you want to do? Aside from destroying whoever posted this because I'm already on it.""It's time," I said, giving his phone back to him. "There's no need to fuss. I'll schedule an interview tomorrow."Percival pocketed the phone. He turned me towards him, thumbs caressing my forearms."So soon?" he asked, voice laced with concern. He craned his neck, discerning my expression."I've been doing this my whole life, Percy," I said, giving him a reassuring smile. "I just... there were just things in my life that I didn't want people to touch. But I kept the most human parts of me hidden, and I shouldn't have to. I'm no longer afraid of how they'll perceive me after. This has to end now."****Percival and I made arrangements for tomorrow when we returned to our hotel room. I read the ar
