Semua Bab Billionaire's Regret: It's Great to See You Again, Daddy!: Bab 81 - Bab 90

AUTHOR'S POVClara stormed out of the office hallway, heels clicking hard against the marble floor. Elizabeth trailed close behind, her eyes red, her freshly scratched scalp stinging under her wig. The hallway was empty now, the show over, the spectators gone. But the damage had been done. Katherine had made her presence felt, loudly, violently, and with far more power than either of them had anticipated.All their efforts were in vain, despite the grand plan they had to take over the company, to humiliate Katherine, yet somehow she ended up being ahead of them.What the hell was she on? No matter how hard Elizabeth tried to rack her memory, she still couldn't come up with the name of someone willing to support Katherine.Someone who went as far as hiding the real power of attorney until she, Katherine, finally showed up."What the hell was that?" Clara hissed as soon as they were far enough from the main offices, stepping into one of the executive break lounges. She threw her handba

KATHERINE'S POV His eyes and the way his chin immediately relaxed showed me that he was relieved to see me, but for some reason, he looked embarrassed at the same time.My eyes trailed to the face of a man I've always heard of, the man my brain remembers seeing often with my father when I was young...the older version of my son's face.Alex's father.Liam Blake, the once most feared and respected name in the industry.I licked my lips and gently closed the door as I walked in. Their eyes were on me... curious."Katherine?" Alex's father asked, finally breaking the heavy silence in the room.I raised my head and stared into his hollow eyes.He looked sad… and tired.My heart squeezed gently as I stared at him and I bit my lips.Pity syndrome.That was exactly what I had."Yes, Mr Blake?"His eyes widened and the empty eyes immediately vanished, replaced with recognition and happiness."You're Katherine?? Oh wow! You're looking so different!"I smiled, the curves of my lips barely reac

ALEXANDER'S POV "You... what??" I expected him to react that way. Heck I would have reacted that way also if I was Henry."You heard me right.""Yeah, I did, but I was thinking maybe you would use that opportunity to change your words. What's going on? Why would you think you can ever get back together with Katherine?"I sighed heavily and leaned back into my seat as he threw the words that I avoided all morning.If there was ever a possibility of me getting back with her.Ever since our trip downtown, and then what transpired between us yesterday, I've been unable to get her out of my mind.I want to go back.Back to the time when Katherine was in love with me.And although I knew deep down that things would never be the same, I just wish she'll at least give me a chance.If not for my sake, then for Frankie's sake.The poor boy deserves to be with his father, to be with a real family."I know that it seems impossible right now, especially with all these things going on, but I'm go

KATHERINE'S POV I shouldn't have called him. Every logical part of my head warned me not to but I guess I was too blind again. I let myself get swayed by his words.. again. Astra's message stared right at me and although I analyzed it from every angle, it just didn't make any sense to me. Why would she text me? How did she get my number? And what the hell does she mean by that message? "Earth to Katherine....Hello...?" Hazel's voice interrupted my thoughts and I turned to stare at her. "Oh my goodness!" I gasped loudly as I nearly collided into her face. "What the hell were you thinking?" Her eyes had this knowing look in them. "Nothing," I looked away and stared at the files in her hands, avoiding her stare, "What's that? And why didn't you knock? You startled me." She scoffed and grabbed a chair, throwing all of her body on it. "I did, duh. I knocked more than once. I also called your name as soon as I walked in. But I guess you were in another nation.. imagination." M

KATHERINE'S POV He didn't say anything immediately and his reaction was exactly as expected, but weirdly I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable with the silence and calm look on his face."So…" It was obvious what words were at the tip of his tongue. His calm look didn't hide what questions he had dancing around the edge of his eyes.So what's your plan?That was exactly what he wanted to ask.But I didn't want to respond immediately, no, actually I couldn't let him see that I actually understood what he meant."So what?" I blinked innocently.He leaned forward, this time, the almost hopeful look was back in his eyes."So why would she send you such a text?"He was dancing around the question. Well, figures.We both knew what the answer was.He was the only person who understood me, aside from Hazel so he would have an inkling of what I want.But the truth was that while the idea of getting back together with Alex seems okay, I still can't bring myself to actually do it.I guess th
