All Chapters of The Untouchable Heiress He Regrets Losing: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Zane’s POVI rubbed my eyes as I woke up. The hangover was nothing like I had ever experienced. I stirred and tossed in bed to gather the strength I needed to get up. But it wasn’t just the hangover I felt. There was emptiness. My head throbbed as I tossed left and right, the air heavy with the scent of Elora’s perfume. I wiped my face with my hand, groaning softly.What the hell happened last night?Pieces of memories from the bar to the house flashed through my mind—the heat at the bar, the alcohol stench, the dragging and lifting, Elora. That’s it. I fucked Elora. Then my eyes widened.I briefly sat up. I had called Zara’s name. My heart began to hammer loudly in my chest. The memory hit me like a punch in my ribs. The moment Elora took me in her, and moaned beneath me, my eyes deceived me, I whispered Zara. Not once but twice. Shit. Damn it Zane!I lingered in bed for a bit, unable to shake off the memories and not knowing how I would face Elora. Not that I regret it because Zara

I blinked not once or twice, but continuously.“What?, I whispered, my voice barely audible.“It’s just as you heard, Zara. We were never divorced,” he leaned back into his chair comfortably, like he hadn’t just dropped a bomb. “I was also deceived. The lawyer I used turned out to be a fake who was just after quick money.”I swallowed the bile that was rising in my throat. Did he expect me to be gullible enough to believe this trash? I bit my lip at the thought of the fact that I still had to bear the nonsense he was spitting. But then my phone dinged. It was a message from Leo. “We’re in. Mission successful. You can leave now.” The moment I scanned through the message, I closed my eyes in relief that I didn’t need to bear this anymore. Then, I shot him a burning gaze.“You must be so miserable to think you can lie about our divorce just to get back with me.” He blinked fast and looked around, shocked at the fact that I didn’t believe the lie he had cooked up.“You’re sick. Really s

Leo’s POVThe boardroom of Wesley Group was saddled with quiet tension when the meeting commenced. Although it was well anticipated, as this wasn’t the usual meeting but a proposal meeting for the upcoming sixtieth anniversary of Wesley group. All managers, directors, and investors have gathered, faces sharp and battle-ready. It was the first meeting since Zara and I were welcomed into Wesley group, so there were a few head turns here and there towards us. It wasn’t my first time in the board room, though. I had often come with my father, Brad, to watch how to be a leader and learn how to pitch to investors. Those were the only valuable things I learnt from him.I glanced briefly at Zara seated beside, and as always, she was calm and collected as she rhythmically tapped on her tablet. Zane and Elora came in hand in hand and took their seat. That was strange because the report Kelvin had been giving was that they were at loggerheads since Zara came back and drove a wedge between them.

Zara’s POV“You guys kissed?!” Mia screamed.“Shhhh…Someone might hear you!” I said, placing my index finger on my lips.“Girl! This is straight out of a Wattpad fantasy.” A wide grin on her face followed.Looking like she still wanted to scream, she pressed her hands against her lips tightly to avoid it.“And it wasn’t a kiss,” I continued in defence.She smirked and looked me in the eye. “If it wasn’t a kiss, what was it, Zara?”I looked sideways, eyes raking my office as though the answer to her question was written somewhere on the wall. “Well…” I cleared my throat. “It was just my lips collapsing into his. A kiss would be more…” I placed my fingers on my lips, unknowingly caressing them. “More intentional, tongue intertwining, hot and desperate enough to–”“Are we still talking about a kiss here?” She asked with furrowed brows and folded arms that made me snap back into reality.I didn't know why I had still been unable to get it out of my head. I knew telling Mia about it would

Zara’s POV The door slammed shut behind Elora and Zane, the echo resounding in my office. The room fell into an uneasy silence, one that made swallowing saliva the loudest thing in that moment. Leo stared at me, not saying a word since they left. He stood there, a few feet away, hands in the pockets of his grey suit, and his expression unreadable. The tension between us was so thick that it pressed against my skin. I looked up to meet the storm brewing in his eyes. “What was that?” He finally broke the silence, his voice low and sharp, slicing through the still air. My mouth went dry then I looked up to meet his cold gaze. “It’s not what it looks like, Leo.” He laughed dryly and stepped closer, his expensive shoes clicking against the marble floor. “Oh really? He asked, raising an eyebrow. “Because from where I stood, I was pretty sure I overheard Elora saying Zane wants to divorce her to be with you, and you didn’t exactly object to it.” I opened my mouth, closed it, and then sa
