Semua Bab The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye: Bab 781 - Bab 790

Frank ignored Mona's startled look, a playful curve tugging at the corner of his mouth. He raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.A crisp snap echoed through the air. Suddenly, dozens of roses began to fall from above—not just petals, but full blooms in every color imaginable, all drifting down toward the little cabin.Mona's mouth dropped open. From the sheer number of roses, she could guess how many people were involved in this surprise.She never imagined that all these strangers had been hiding, waiting for the perfect moment to shower them with flowers.Even without Frank explaining, Mona knew this was all part of his meticulous plan.When she turned to look at him, her eyes shimmered with emotion.He had waited for her for so long, loving her wholeheartedly and filling her life with endless surprises.Mona tightened her grip on Frank's hand and moved a little closer.Sensing the change in her mood, Frank smiled and lifted his hand just in time to catch a single white ros

When it was finally time for his speech, Frank reluctantly stepped onto the stage.Earlier that morning, Mona had already flipped through his notes at home, so the moment the talk began, she quietly slipped out.Years had passed, and the campus had changed a lot. On their way in, Mona had been itching to take a stroll, so she wandered around while Frank spoke.By the time she returned to the auditorium, Frank was surrounded by a crowd of young female students.At first, Mona didn't think much of it. But when she noticed a few girls with hearts practically shining in their eyes—some even daring to touch Frank—her jaw clenched so hard her teeth ached. Her eyes narrowed, blazing with fire as she locked her gaze on Frank.Frank was already struggling to fend off the eager advances, when he suddenly felt a wave of murderous intent aimed straight at him. A chill ran down his spine.He turned his head—and froze. Mona stood there, grinding her teeth and glaring at him like she might set him o

From the moment Mona stood beside Aria and lied to Gabriella to protect her, she had already decided—Aria was now someone under her protection.When Mona snapped angrily in the car, Frank instantly understood.Her fury wasn't about Kane or Gabriella. She was furious because Aria had been hurt, and she was venting at him.He almost spoke up in Kane's defense, but one glance at Aria's bloodless face—and the memory of the medical report—silenced him.No argument could excuse this."Drive faster!" Mona barked. Then, almost immediately, she backtracked. "No—wait. Just...keep it safe!"Her sudden switch made Frank give a helpless little laugh.Not even back when Jamie had been in the picture had he ever seen Mona this anxious.And yet Aria, whom Mona had just met, had slipped so quickly into her heart.While waiting at a red light, Frank glanced at the two women in the back seat and suddenly understood why Mona was siding with Aria.Truth was, Aria's actions today had shocked even him.Mona

Mona couldn't shake her worry for Aria, so she personally walked her to Arthur's car and stood there watching as the vehicle disappeared down the street. Only then did she turn back toward the hospital.Frank noticed her unsettled mood and quickly caught up."You were up all night," he said, giving her shoulder a reassuring pat. "Go home and get some rest. I'll drive you.""Okay." Mona didn't argue. "I just need to grab my stuff upstairs. Meet you in the parking garage.""Got it." Frank nodded.After Frank dropped her off at her apartment, he had to return to the hospital for work. Left alone, Mona's mind drifted back to what she'd been worrying about all night. She picked up her phone and tried calling Cliff.The call didn't go through.Frowning, she dialed another number from her village. Over the past year and a half, thanks to Frank's protection, Arnold's men hadn't managed to track her down in New York.Some of the villagers still checked in with her from time to time, but now th

Frank's warning was clear enough to make Mona shrink her neck and purse her lips without a word.When she stayed silent, Frank gave her cheek a playful pinch."Ow!" Mona swatted his hand away and yelped.Knowing she was just putting on a show, Frank shot her a sharp look, then softened his grip, his fingers brushing her skin instead."Mona, you need to remember this," he said, lowering his voice as he pressed a kiss to her forehead. "No matter what happens, I'll always be your rock."Leaning into his chest, Mona gave a quiet nod. "Mm. I know."Her answer finally brought a satisfied curve to Frank's lips.Even though she promised him, Mona knew in her heart that if trouble really broke out back at the village, she might not keep that promise. She didn't want to drag him into it.Things were already messy with Kane and Aria—newspaper stories about ATTA and the couple were everywhere. Frank never complained, but Mona knew he was quietly helping Kane deal with the fallout.That was why Mo
