Semua Bab The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye: Bab 361 - Bab 370

Years ago, Kane had beaten Baron half to death before locking him away. To ensure he wouldn't die too quickly, Kane had even instructed Frank to do his utmost to treat him.For years, every time Kane needed to vent, he would stab Baron. One stab at a time, he'd pick the most vulnerable spots on his body, yet he always used just enough control to keep him from dying.Over time, Baron’s organs were all damaged. He was in so much agony that he tried to kill himself several times, but Kane never let him have his wish—always making sure Frank brought him back from the brink.Frank and Eden, while finding the method a bit cruel, understood it was fueled by Kane’s rage over Baron's betrayal. So they never tried to talk him out of it.After all, Baron had grown up with Kane; they were closer than brothers, and their bond was stronger than anyone else's. For a man who was like family to betray him, it was a wound Kane simply couldn’t tolerate.Though Kane’s anger had subsided over the years, s

When the topic turned serious, Marvin dropped his playful demeanor and handed Aria a portfolio from his desk.“You said you needed a place in a good school district, and this is all I could find on such short notice. Take a look.”Marvin watched Aria go through the files and began to explain.“The top three homes are near a preschool and an elementary school. The six below that have a middle school nearby, too, but the commute is a bit longer.”Aria could see the care Marvin had put into the selection. She looked closely and saw he had chosen the homes exactly according to her criteria.“It’s hard to find smaller homes these days. Luckily, I know a good real estate agent who helped me keep an eye out,” Marvin added. “Don’t worry. I’ve personally checked out all these places. They have great natural light, easy transportation, and the neighborhoods are perfect for you and Basia.”“Thank you, Marvin,” Aria said sincerely after she finished looking through the files.“If you really want

Aria smiled. “Thank you so much. I'd appreciate it if you could ask. It would be great if the price could come down a bit.”“Of course,” the agent said, a reasonable man. “You should be prepared, though. The owner needs to sell quickly, but the location is so good that they might not be willing to drop the price, or it might only be a small reduction.”Aria thought about it and nodded. “I understand. I'll still have to trouble you. If the price can drop, that's great. If not, I’ll figure something else out.”Initially, Aria thought if the price couldn't be lowered, she could rent for a while and buy it after she found a job. But hearing what the agent said, that idea didn’t seem very reliable. Still, she was reluctant to give up the house. It was the only one in the area for sale, and the location was perfect.The house was already renovated, and the style was exactly what Aria liked. She only needed to add furniture to move in, which would save her a lot of hassle.Seeing the fondnes

Elena was amused by Basia’s antics again. She picked her up and sat her on the sofa between herself and Aria.After the laughter died down, Elena looked at Aria. “Marvin is the CEO of ACE Group, right? Your old boss?”“Yes. I ran into him in France, and we’ve kept in touch. He’s a great guy and wants me to join ACE Group to help him out,” Aria said, nodding.She pulled out the clothes she bought for Basia and held them up to her.Basia’s eyes lit up when she saw the new clothes. She scooted closer to Aria and obediently let her try them on.Elena frowned slightly. “Is that Marvin…?”Before she could finish, Basia chimed in, “Uncle Marvin likes Mommy!”Aria looked at Basia helplessly and gently flicked her forehead. “How would you know? Don’t spread rumors about Marvin!”Basia pouted, rubbing her forehead on the sofa, looking all hurt and innocent.Aria sighed, seeing Elena’s thoughtful expression. She quickly explained, “Mom, don’t listen to Basia. Marvin doesn’t feel that way. We use

Arthur was stunned by Kane’s words and couldn't say a thing for a while.Kane frowned at him.“Contact her. We’ll meet at Brookside Manor at three this afternoon.”Arthur didn’t dare say more. He nodded and left to contact the real estate agent.Alone in his office, Kane paced anxiously, trying to figure out what he should do when he saw Aria. After thinking it over, he grabbed his car keys and headed for the door.“Boss, the meeting is set. Where are you going?” Arthur poked his head out of his office.“I’m going home to change.” Kane didn’t even look at him and walked straight to the elevator.Arthur’s mouth hung open. This was the first time in four years he had seen Kane this nervous. He could only hope the meeting with Aria went well.***After getting the agent’s call, Aria told Elena that Basia was in her care.At three o’clock, Aria arrived at Brookside Manor and was led to a private room after she gave the agent’s last name.The door opened, and Aria saw someone sitting behin
