Semua Bab The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye: Bab 211 - Bab 220

The thought that Aria was the reason Kane was scolding her in front of Baron made Gabriella grit her teeth in anger.But she had come to see Kane about something important, and with his current mood, Gabriella took a deep breath and tried to keep her temper in check."Kane, I've always walked in like this! I'm your fiancée; do I really need to let someone announce me?" Seeing Kane's expression darken even more, Gabriella forced a pleasing smile. "Okay, fine, you don't like it. So from now on, I'll have someone tell you I'm here and then knock. How does that sound?"Kane's face remained grim. "I've also told you that I don't acknowledge you as my fiancée. Don't go around using that title to deceive people!"This time, Gabriella's face went white. "What do you mean 'deceive people'? Fine, you don't acknowledge me as your fiancée. Then I'll speak to you as the Sales Manager of the ATTA Group. Why didn't you agree to the partnership with Rod?""Why should I?" Kane scoffed, turning the que

Gabriella was clearly trying to pass the blame to Aria. She was throwing Aria under the bus.Rod, despite his suspicions about the truth of her story, remembered that Kane's refusal was indeed because of Aria. So he reluctantly believed Gabriella's version of events."Gabriella, I'll be honest with you. I got word that the new port is going to be built in West End. This resort project is a goldmine. How can I possibly give it up?"With no other choice, Rod laid his cards on the table. If it were just a resort development project, he wouldn't care. The problem was that it was tied to the new port.Gabriella's eyes widened. She now understood why Kane had been so unyielding.A goldmine of this size meant that the fewer people who were in on it, the more profit there would be.No wonder Kane was the one in charge of the project. She should have gotten the Jepson family involved from the beginning. What a shame.Gabriella was inwardly filled with regret, but she had to handle Rod."Rod, y

Thanks to Elena's encouragement, when Kane came to pick up Aria in the evening, she no longer gave him the cold shoulder.As they left the hospital, Kane took Aria's hand and inspected it carefully."What's wrong?" Aria asked, confused by his actions. She looked down at herself. "Nothing's wrong. What are you looking at?"Kane shook his head and smiled mysteriously. "I feel like you've changed.""Changed how?" Aria frowned, then wiggled her finger with the bandage on it. "Got a new cut?"Kane's face fell. He grabbed her injured hand."Are you laughing?" he asked, raising an eyebrow with a look of displeasure. "So the cup broke. Why did you pick it up with your bare hands? Don't you know how to use a broom?"Aria stuck out her tongue. "I didn't think about it.""You didn't think about it!" Kane said, knocking her on the forehead in frustration. "Hospitals are full of germs, and you go and cut yourself on purpose? Are you trying to get into trouble?"Aria pulled her hand away and gave h

"Exactly!" Eden clapped his hands. "On the surface, they're a legitimate company, but in reality, they're just a front."Kane's expression darkened. "The Jepson family has quite a bit of ambition. Those two idiots are being used without even realizing it!""I wouldn't say that!" Eden disagreed with Kane. "Evan and Ivan aren't clueless. I've checked their bank statements. While their local accounts seem fine, they have a joint account abroad with tens of millions in it."Kane scoffed. "And my mom dotes on them so much!""Kane," Eden said, a serious note in his voice as he brought up Natalie. "Are you sure you want to keep digging?""If your mom finds out we're investigating them, I'm worried you'll be in an awkward position.""Keep digging," Kane said, determined to take down the JE Group. "For the JE Group to fall, there has to be a price to pay."Eden was speechless for a moment, then he gave a sly grin. "You're so cruel, using those two as pawns!""They have only themselves to blame

The girl, with strength that seemed to come from nowhere, as if she had taken a strength-boosting pill, suddenly broke free from Aria and pushed her.Aria lost her footing and stumbled to the side, but unexpectedly fell into a man's arms.Her heart leaped with joy, thinking it was Kane. But when she looked up, she saw an unfamiliar face. Aria frowned slightly.The man in the floral shirt had been waiting for an opportunity, and the girl's push had given him one.Holding Aria, the man in the floral shirt felt how soft she was and how good she smelled. Her look of panic only excited him more.Seeing that he had no intention of letting go, Aria wiggled in his arms. "Thank you, I can stand on my own."The man in the floral shirt snapped out of his daydream. He let go, and Aria stood in front of him.Once she was stable, Aria rushed to find the girl. Seeing that the girl had run to the stairs, and worried that she might jump from a high place, Aria immediately started running after her.Th
