Semua Bab Mr Billionaire's Regret: Ex-wife Returns With His Triplets.: Bab 51 - Bab 60

“Hey, Rita. How are you doing?” I called out and broke into a smile as I picked up my phone, hearing her voice almost immediately.“I’m good! How about you, Ashton?” Rita replied, sounding goofy as always.“Work’s been alright, just kind of stressful, you know. But we’re pushing through,” I said, trying to brush off the weight of the day.“Glad to hear it’s going well! How’s everything on your end?” She asked, the glee from her voice still very much present.“It’s going fine,” I answered, feeling the small sigh escape my lips. “Oh, and Rita, I just wanted to thank you for what you did the other day. I really appreciate it.”She laughed lightly. “You don’t have to thank me, Ashton. You know I just want you and Helen back together. If that means going behind Helen’s back to convince her kids… Well, I’ll help however I can.”A wave of happiness washed over me. The thought of having hope to win Helen back made my heart race. “Really? You think I still have a shot?”“Absolutely! But it’s n

Another tiring day on set yet again, I thought as I leaned back on the chair just beside the secretary's office. I was so drained, tired and weak that I just had to find a chance to rest.It was one of those overstretched days, especially with the deadline of our movie coming closer and closer. Mr. Riley had been on my tail today, pushing for perfection, and I was really feeling the weight of it all. Juggling multiple roles and shooting at different locations was exhausting, but what could I say? It was something I had a real passion for, so I had to push through and give it my all.“How’s it going, Miss Helen?” I suddenly heard from behind me. It was Mr. Riley, walking toward me with that serious look he often wore.“Afternoon, sir,” I replied, forcing a smile despite the fact that I was really feeling so fatigued. “I’m making it through, just barely.”He laughed gently. “I bet. Sorry for the stress on set today.” As he spoke, he reached into a fancy leather bag and pulled out somet

My immediate response surprised even myself. “I have nothing to say to you.”He looked at me intensely with his hands tucked in his suit pants, “You can’t avoid this forever.”“It’s easy to avoid someone who’s only bringing negativity,” I scoffed, shaking my head as I walked away.Regardless of the fire we had just exchanged, soothing my anger felt like a victory. I needed to find a way to handle this mess—the film, the meeting, and especially Ashton. But for now, I just wanted to escape the chaos of that room and breathe.The door closed behind me, and I took a deep, calming breath. I knew my actions would have repercussions, but at this point, I didn’t care. All I wanted to do was tell Ashton my mind, and that was exactly what I did.“Wow, what the hell was that, Helen?” The voice shook me, and I turned to see Mr. Riley walking towards me; his face had this mix of anger and concern.“Mr. Riley, I’m sorry,” I apologized quickly, raising my hands in surrender. “I didn’t mean to be rud

“What condition is that?” I asked suspiciously, wondering where the idea was coming from. I had no idea what he was going to say, but I could already feel it would be a crazy thing.“I want you to go on a date with me,” Ashton replied, his tone just casual as though he were asking for coffee, not a date after everything that had just happened.I was taken aback and I let it show in my words, “What? Are you seriously asking me out on a date at this critical time? Basically, we are at the brink of having our project fail because of that video, and now what you want is for us to go on a date?”At this point, I knew I couldn’t hide my anger anymore. “You’re joking, right?”“No, I’m not joking,” he said, and I could hear the playful edge in his voice. It was clear that definitely none of these issues on the ground really bothered him. “If you want me to make that live video to the world saying you apologized to me … then yes, I am asking you to go on a date with me.”“Wow, really? Are you

I was in my office just chilling, music playing softly in the background, I took another sip of my wine. The smooth taste reminded me of how things might finally turn around. Soon enough, the door swung open and Dan walked in, looking both curious and excited.“How the hell did you make this happen?” Dan asked, his voice loud over the music. He practically had the surprise look on his face.I chuckled, taking another sip. “It’s a miracle, man. Just pure magic.”“Magic? Come on, tell me!” Dan was grinning from ear to ear, leaning closer. His eyes sparkled with obvious glee. “Why are you keeping all this excitement from me?”I just smiled, enjoying the tease. “Guess how I got Helen to agree to go on a date with me.”He tapped his chin, pretending to think hard. “Hmm, did you send her flowers? No, that’s too basic. Wait! Did you charm her with your billionaire smile?”I laughed, shaking my head. “Nope, not that either.”“Okay, let me think,” he continued, looking at me intensely. “Did y
