Semua Bab The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye: Bab 301 - Bab 310

"Didn't Madam notice?" Aria asked, curious.Baron had said that Natalie saved the ATTA Group. Aria couldn't believe a woman like that would miss the signs of her husband cheating.Baron's smile was complex. "Maybe she just didn't want to expose him.""Because of the near-miscarriage, Madam's health deteriorated, and that's when she developed her heart condition," Baron explained, seeing Aria's confused look. "Other things happened that made her condition worse."Aria nodded. If she were in Natalie's shoes, she would've died from a heart attack much sooner."The boss grew up watching his father lie to Madam's face while secretly cavorting with other women," Baron continued. "The boss was a filial son from a young age. He saw how his father treated Madam and how she would faint from rage over and over again. He promised himself he would always be good to her."Baron's words explained why Kane was so devoted to Natalie."He should," Aria agreed. "If Madam hadn't been strong enough, he wo

After her early-morning phone call with Kane, Aria found the days were dragging on, probably because of what Baron had told her.The longing for him was a torment, making her count every second. To distract herself, Aria threw herself into her work during the day and stayed at her parents' house at night.But even that didn't stop Kane from appearing in her dreams, and she always woke up with a sense of loss."Look at you! You've gotten so thin," her mother, Elena, said, holding Aria's face in her hands. She was full of concern.Aria touched her cheek and stifled a yawn. Nights were hard to get through, and her dreams woke her up, leaving her with dark circles that wouldn't go away."And those bags under your eyes, too. Didn't you sleep well again last night?" Elena asked, her voice filled with worry."No, Mom, I'm okay. Everything will be fine after tomorrow," Aria said, resting her hands on her mother's shoulders. "The event is tomorrow. Once it's over, I can finally relax."Elena f

Jeff came by in the evening.Fanny wasn't with Natalie, so she had no idea that Jeff and Natalie talked in the study for over half an hour."Just ask," Natalie insisted, her mind made up. "But be careful when you do. Don't let Baron tell Kane about this."Fanny was confused but nodded anyway. Seeing that Natalie had no other orders, Fanny left.Left alone in the room, Natalie slowly moved away from the window. Her mind was filled with what Jeff had said. He had seen Kane, and he was with Aria.Natalie's first thought was that Kane had lied to her and was in New York with Aria instead of on a business trip.But she quickly dismissed that thought because she had video-chatted with him two days ago, and he was definitely out of town. So Natalie figured Kane must have come back early.Because of Kane's father, Natalie had a negative view of all other women. And Aria's background was not up to Natalie's standards. She didn't want a woman like that to be involved with her son.On top of tha

When Aria didn’t respond, Evan had expected her to accept his offer without hesitation.He was taken aback when she declined. He paused, thinking. If she had agreed so easily, it would have felt off—after all, they had just met, and she barely knew him.His plan had always seemed a little unrealistic.Still, Evan was determined to get close to her, and he had patience in spades. “If that’s what you want, I won’t force you,” he said, stepping back. But he couldn’t resist adding, “Though my aunt is really nice to me. It’ll make things a lot easier for you if I help you two out.”Aria didn’t know how to respond before someone from the event approached her.“Aria, can I have a word? Do you have a minute?” The person glanced at Evan as they spoke.Aria looked at Evan apologetically. “I’m sorry, Mr. Jo. I have to go to work now.”“Go ahead, go ahead,” Evan waved her off with a smile, letting her go.Aria followed the person backstage to a quieter area. “What’s up?” she asked.“Oh, it’s noth

Kane had planned to take Aria to a romantic restaurant for dinner after the movie.But halfway through the film, Aria started to get a fever.They were holding hands, and at first, Kane thought her hand was just warm. But the theater was freezing, so it didn't make sense for her to be hot.He touched her forehead and realized she was running a fever."Are you sick?" Kane whispered.Aria instinctively wanted to shake her head, but remembering she couldn't tell him about her pregnancy, she nodded instead."I haven't been sleeping well these past few days, and it's so cold in here. I must have caught a cold," Aria said, trying to change the subject.In reality, she knew her body temperature was rising because she was pregnant.Kane frowned and took her hand. "Let's go home. We can leave now.""But the movie's not over yet!" Aria pouted. Judy and Nick were getting close, and she was really into it.Kane's voice dropped. "We're leaving! I'll take you to see it again when you're feeling bet
