Her Ex-husband's Regret のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

CHAPTER 31Diego The past few days have been so stable and peaceful, that I am not sure why Nelly and Nora got into an argument; I have been with Nora for years, Serene has never complained about anything missing, but Nelly claims that one of the gifts I bought her in Dubai was found in Nora's bag; I have not spoken to Nora yet to hear her side of the story. If we lose her now, I do not think Nelly can handle everything on her alone. The last time I looked, things were simply a shambles without Nora. My office door opened, and George strolled in with a smile. I could tell he had excellent news for me, so I begged him to tell me now."Sir, we recently obtained our contract from KATARAYO CONSULTING AGENCIES in London," he explained."What?" I answered while standing on my feet."Yes, sir, we did; please confirm," George answered, handing me the paperwork.I swiftly grabbed them, and we hurled them. I could not believe they responded after 15 years since I was still married to Serene at

CHAPTER 34Serene After my recent encounter with Cruz, I am starting to sense chemistry, but I am not sure if I should go ahead and say yes. I am not sure if Miguel is even ready to have another man staying with us as his father. I do not want to make a hasty decision; even if Cruz is a nice man who would adore my baby unconditionally, I just want to be alone with Miguel until he is old enough. Rina texted me while I was still racing through my thoughts. I checked her massaged status before responding. As usual, she asked me to arrive early since we were having a board meeting.The next morning, I awoke and made Miguel's breakfast; even though I have a maid, I prefer to cook my son's breakfast every day before I go to work. When I was done, I got dressed for work and went to kiss him while he was still sleeping. He was adorable and innocent; the fact that he resembled Diego reminded me of his father, but I did my hardest to suppress that sensation. After the kiss, I went to greet Mig

CHAPTER 35Diego When I looked at the photo of Serene and a small boy that the Detective had handed me, my heart softened and raced. I am not sure why I was so sure he was mine, despite George's doubts. I could feel a deep tie between the child and me. "Sir, will you be attending the meeting in Texas?" George inquired."No, book me the next flight to London," I responded, walking upstairs to gather my belongings."Sir, that is impossible at this hour. All the flights headed there have already gone," George stated, stepping up behind me.I turned back and glanced at him before continuing, "George, make sure I am in London within the next 24 hours. Figure it out on your own, OK.""Sir, this is a tough task, and I am not even sure how I will go about it; perhaps you should—I cut him off."There is no room for any maybes; I am sure I pay you handsomely, so get me a damn jet to London right now," I said, this time more seriously. He walked downstairs without saying anything, while I wen

CHAPTER 37Diego We strolled into my uncle's mansion, and everything still seemed the same; I knew what each room was and what I expected to see next. My body began to quiver, and I became uneasy; all I wanted was for George not to implicate my uncle but he did. We went into the living room and drank coffee together, while the maid went to arrange my room. We conversed a little."So, are you sure you are only here for business?" Cruz inquired again, his voice concealing his interest."Yes, that is correct; I am simply here for that," I replied, my confidence shining through."So, what is the name of the firm you will be working with?" he asked."It is a KATARAYO Agency; I hope you know about it," I replied."Oh, yeah, I do, but why would you want to waste my father's money on companies like that? I mean, is everyone eager to work with you" He questioned."I want to gain a wider reputation for myself; governing New York is not enough; I need to partner with a behemoth of international

CHAPTER 39Diego So far, the day is going well, but I haven't started my search. If George had not told my uncle I was coming, I would have spent the entire time at a hotel plotting how I was going to find Serene. I now have to pass by the KATARAYO Agency only to make it appear that I am here for business; my uncle finding out about Serene and the child would endanger their lives. As the evening neared, I prepared and left for KATARAYO AGENCIES’. Their guard led me inside the boarding room, where I found everyone except one individual. They were the biggest investor; they were supposed to welcome me but could not make it owing to other commitments."Mr. Myers, please excuse us for the inconvenience," the supervisor apologized."It is okay, Mr. Simon," I said, pretending to grin."Uhm, Mr. Myers, will you be staying here for long?” A lady dressed in blue inquired."I truly can not say madam, but if your boss would want to meet with me, please let her know; I want to conduct business w
