Alle Kapitel von The Billionaire's Regret: Getting My Wife Back: Kapitel 191 – Kapitel 200

NOVAAmaya transformed into a lawyer, just right before my eyes. One minute she was grieving her missing child, and the next she was making calls, calling as many people as she could, to ask for help. For the first time, I saw her in a new light. Gone was the woman who always got on my nerves. Replaced by that old version of her was a mother concerned for her son. After calling the people she could for help, she left, after confirming everything with me. However, not before promising to take care of the kids should there be any need for it. I was sitting on the only chair in the kid's room while Brion sat on River's bed when I got a text. I didn't waste any time unlocking my phone. “Hello dear, Nova. I have a gift for you,” the text read. Before I could ponder on the strange message, I got another one, this one with a detailed address of a place close to Lilith's house. “Brion, check this out.” I drew up from the chair and walked over to him, passing the phone. Brion's brows fur

“Are you alright?” Brion scrunched his face as he watched me. He got up from the bed and sauntered towards me, to take the things I got. “Do you want to talk about it?”I turned to look at my kids before shaking my head. Forcing a smile I walked up to their bed. Willow and River were sitting on her bed, playing games with Brion's phone, but they stopped when I walked in. “Mum, are you okay?” Willow asked, looking as worried as Brion looked. “Of course, why won't I?” Sitting on the bed, I grinned. “So, what have you guys been up to? Still playing that game?” I made a face at that. I'd seen no attractions with playing games that weren't puzzles. Anything aside from that was a 'no' for me. “Uncle Brion downloaded a new game!” River gushed, passing the phone to me. “We have been playing it since you left. So far, I have gotten the best score. Willow can't play.”“Yeah, the same way you can't play my dress-up games better than me.” Willow folded her arms, glaring at him. “Of course, I

I screamed out. It felt like ants were crawling inside my body, looking for a way out. The woman's sharp laughter accompanied my scream. I didn't make out anything else she said because of the intense pain, one which rocked me to my core. I tugged on the chains holding me, screaming out as I barred my teeth. I wanted an out, to get away from whatever was in the injection. Beads of sweat trailed down my face as I continued to tug on the chain, screaming. Almost instantly, the pain stopped. It was as if someone were using a button to control the intensity. Panting, I peered up at her, my eyes narrowed, and my teeth barred. “Do you like my gift?” She chuckled, amused at my misery. I opened my mouth to speak, but couldn't let out a word before a new intense wave of shock went through me. I arched my back, my body convulsing as the electricity coursed through my veins. The chains rattled against the wall as I thrashed about, desperate to escape the agony. The woman's laughter grew loude

We walked up the stairs, our gazes sharp and alert. We didn't want any of the occupants in the abandoned building to know our steps. Ben took the lead, leaving me in the rear. I was scared, thinking of someone jumping from the dark to dig their claws into my chest. The image I got was vivid. It didn't help that I recalled horror movies I watched years ago. The people at the back are mostly the ones who die first. Ben's steps were silent as he climbed, and I tried to keep the same pace with him despite the shivering of my body. I clutched tightly to the gun, pointing it in all directions. The silence in the house was deafening. For a moment, I thought we were frozen in time, walking the stairs of a haunted house. The cobwebs in every corner were the worst. I would have screamed when I caught one with my gun had it not been for the mission. I swallowed back the scream, panting heavily while seeking to remain calm. Did I tell you it was an impossible feat? Of course, it was. I'd seen

“Are you really going there alone?” Brion lifted a brow, watching me get dressed for the assignment. Surely you're joking, right? Are you messing with me? I should have known that was what you were doing.”"Not in the slightest. I am heading out solo. I still have my gun with me, remember? If it turns out to be a trap, I will shoot those damned bastards right in their eyes. He must have found the promise in my gaze amusing, as he chuckled and covered his mouth with his right hand. “Though what you said right there is funny, we can't ignore the enormous elephant in the room. That is far too massive for that. You, Nova, aren't going anywhere without informing the police. I don't want to lose you, and I know the kids don't. We still need you, and —”“You are making this sound dramatic.” I rolled my eyes at him as I checked my reflection in the mirror. I didn't dress up. I just changed my style. Instead of the beautiful flowery gown I wore this morning, it was now a black shirt and blac
