Alle Kapitel von Alpha's Regret: Kapitel 71 – Kapitel 80

Ken looked at his brother, Kelvin, and nodded in agreement. "Alright, it's a good plan. But, Mom, you need to be careful out there," he said, his voice tense.Kelvin chimed in, "Yeah, make sure you’re not being followed. The last thing we need is the cops catching up with us."Cassandra, her face lined with stress, nodded. "I understand. I'll be careful," she replied, trying to steady her voice. She grabbed her purse and made her way to the door, pausing for a moment to look back at her sons. The sight of them, grown yet still so dependent, filled her with resentment. "I'll be back soon. Just... stay out of trouble," she added, though she doubted they could avoid it.As she drove to the nearest ATM, her mind raced with thoughts of survival. She had always provided for her sons, giving them everything they desired. But now, as things spiraled out of control, she realized she needed to prioritize herself. The fury in Kelvin's eyes, in particular, unnerved her. She didn't doubt for a sec

Hank had just finished a meeting with his top executives when he received the news. Ken and Kelvin, his stepsons, had been arrested. A wave of conflicting emotions washed over him. Despite everything they'd done, he couldn't help but feel a deep sadness. He remembered them as young boys, full of potential before they were twisted by their mother's influence. He blamed himself, too, for not stepping in more forcefully, for letting Cassandra dictate their upbringing. The result was now two young men facing serious charges, including attempted murder.Wasting no time, He decided to visit them at the station. As he walked in, he saw Ken sitting in the corner, looking defeated and disheveled. Kelvin, on the other hand, still wore his arrogance with pride, his eyes were cold and challenging. When they saw him they looked away, refusing to look him in the eye. Hank noticed that Kelvin's leg was bleeding, he needed no one to tell him that he must have done something that made them shoot him

Cassandra relished her newfound anonymity in South Africa. No one knew her here and it suited her completely, she felt free to reinvent herself and she posed as a tourist, she indulged in a lavish lifestyle, selling off Hanks watches and cuffs and her jewelry to meet up with expenses. She opted for a modest hotel because she knew of the possibility of running into someone who might recognize her in a more plush and upscale hotel. Her days were spent enjoying hotel meals, shopping for expensive clothes, and cruising around in a rented car, or using bolt services. Buying a car was out of the question to avoid being noticed. Whenever the thought of running out of money surfaced, she quickly dismissed it, preferring to live in the moment.During her stay in South Africa, Cassandra met Jaden, a man significantly younger than her. They clicked immediately, sharing laughs and conversations that flowed effortlessly. Jaden was charming and attentive, and within a week, he suggested, "Why don'

Greg watched Stephanie, intrigued by the unusual blush that colored her cheeks. He couldn't help but wonder what kind of conversation she had been having with her father. If only he could be a fly on the wall during one of those discussions, he mused.Though he had caught something about dating from Mr. Hank, it was Stephanie’s beauty and poise that captured his attention. Everything about her was near perfect, and he found himself admiring her more deeply than before.After mulling it over in his mind for a while, Greg finally gathered the courage to ask, "Stephanie, would you like to go on a date with me?"Before she could respond, he quickly added, "Just a friendly date, I mean. I could use a friend to spend some time with. It's been a long time since I last went out."Stephanie hesitated, considering his words. She looked into his eyes and saw sincerity and some form of vulnerability. Finally, she nodded, "As a friend, okay."Greg's face lit up with joy. "Great! How about tonight?

Stephanie thought to herself how everything in her life seemed to be falling into place. Her son had come back into her life, her would-be assassins were in jail, and she was healthy. She had also just had the best date she’d had in a long while.As she was reflecting on her recent good fortune, her phone rang. Seeing Greg’s name on the screen, she smiled and picked up the call.“Hey, Greg!” Stephanie greeted him warmly.“Hey, Stephanie. How’s your day going?” Greg’s voice was as cheerful as ever.“It’s been good. Busy, but good,” she replied, leaning back in her chair. “How about yours?”“Not too bad,” Greg said. “Actually, I was calling to see if you’d be available for another date this Saturday.”Stephanie’s heart did a little flip. “Another date? You mean like a proper date or just as friends?” she teased.Greg chuckled. “Strictly as friends, of course. We wouldn’t want to break any rules now would we?”Stephanie laughed, feeling a warm glow spreading through her. “Of course not.
