Alle Kapitel von The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye: Kapitel 731 – Kapitel 740

Mona only realized later why her coworkers had been teasing her. From her closer friends, she learned that Frank had openly called her his girlfriend when he’d stepped in to defend her.She hadn’t expected him to do that. Part of her was grateful he’d shielded her, but another part was thrown completely off balance.And maybe it was just her imagination, but ever since then, Frank had been hanging around her more than usual—waiting for her after shifts, driving her to and from the hospital, never giving her much space.Mona had protested more than once, but Frank ignored her objections and kept doing as he pleased.The kinder Frank was to her, the guiltier Mona felt—like she was betraying Jamie.She even pulled aside a couple of close nurses to explain that she wasn’t actually dating Frank, that he’d only said that to help her. After she emphasized it again and again, those nurses finally believed her.But word never got around to the others. Most of the hospital staff still looked at

Frank’s sharp eyes immediately caught a glimpse of hair sticking out from the bundle slung over Marlon’s shoulder.The second he saw it, he didn’t think twice—he charged straight at him.Startled, Marlon instinctively tried to sidestep and slip away, but Frank was heading right for him.“Put her down!” Frank barked, his gaze locked on the blanket in Marlon’s arms. He was certain Mona was inside.Already panicked, Marlon nearly lost it when Frank called him out. “N-No! She’s mine, she’s my girlfriend!” His voice cracked, then he quickly scrambled for an excuse. “She’s sick—she’s running a fever. I’m taking her to the hospital. Don’t get in my way!”“Fever?” Frank narrowed his eyes. His gut screamed not to believe a word, but he couldn’t ignore the possibility entirely. Still, Marlon’s frantic movements gave him away.“And who the hell are you?” Marlon snapped, emboldened when Frank didn’t immediately tear Mona from him. “Mind your own damn business! If something happens to my girlfrien

Frank was speechless at Mona’s reaction. Only she would think he was some figment of her dream.With a weary sigh, he caught her hand and pressed it against his chest.“Mona, can’t you feel my warmth? My heartbeat?” His gaze locked onto hers with unshakable certainty. “This isn’t a dream. This is real. We’re lying in the same bed right now, and you just confessed to me.”Resting on his arm, her palm flat against his chest, Mona’s eyes went wide. She felt the steady rhythm beneath her hand, saw the intensity in his gaze—those eyes that saw only her.She wasn’t dreaming. She was awake. Awake, in Frank’s bed. Awake, after blurting out feelings she’d kept buried.God, kill me now. What have I done…She bolted upright, frantically glancing around.“Where… where am I?”“My place,” Frank answered simply.Her jaw dropped. She shrieked, clutching the blanket to her chest and wrapping herself up tight like armor.Frank could only shake his head at her slow, over-the-top reaction.“Mona, calm do

Frank finished what he had to say and stood up to leave.Jamie shot to her feet. “You like Mona, don’t you?”“Yes. I like Mona.” Frank stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and locked his gaze on her. “So stay away from her. If you so much as try to hurt her, I won’t let you get away with it.”Jamie gave a brittle laugh. “Frank, stop fooling yourself. Mona doesn’t even like you. She told me herself—she has no feelings for you.”Frank’s eyes narrowed. “Are you sure that’s what Mona said? Or is it just what you want me to believe?”The words cut straight through her pretense. Jamie flushed with shame, but the thought of losing Frank to Mona filled her with bitter resentment.“Frank, what’s so special about Mona? She’s just some nobody from a backwater town. Aside from her face and her body, what else does she even have?”“At least she isn’t like you—disgusting enough to weaponize so-called friendship just to manipulate someone.” Frank’s sneer was merciless.Jamie’s face darkened. “Wha

After two years of searching, Mona’s sudden reappearance shattered Frank’s composure.But hearing her beg another doctor to save her husband was a blow he couldn’t stomach.He wanted to storm over, demand answers—when had she married? Why had she run from him two years ago? But the risk of her vanishing again forced him to rein himself in.Drawing a deep breath, Frank pulled the head nurse aside.“I’ll take this surgery. You tell the family to wait in the lounge. And don’t mention I’m the one operating—say another doctor’s handling it.”The nurse blinked in confusion but obeyed, gently guiding Mona away.Once she was out of sight, Frank grabbed a vial of anesthetic and slipped into the lounge.Mona sat alone, a paper cup in her hands, staring blankly at the water inside. She was so lost in thought that she didn’t notice Frank until the needle pierced her arm.Her head snapped up. “You—!”But the drug was fast. She barely managed to rise before her eyes rolled shut and she collapsed ag
