All Chapters of My Billionaire Ex-husband's Greatest Regret : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Chapter 32Tessa Ford~•~ I could win a Grammy with the acting I just pulled in front of Grayson. I was even surprised that he believed me. Did he really think I would actually terminate the pregnancy after getting a second chance at being a mom? I had to come up with something just to get his mind off the baby. He had no idea that they were even twins. Maybe he would eventually back off after realizing that what he had been looking forward to wasn’t there anymore. A part of me felt guilty, but it was the best thing I could do. I needed to protect myself and my kids from my past life. I knew the world I had built would come crashing down if Grayson had even the slightest idea that I was lying to him and we actually had a son and daughter together. Grayson was already walking back to his car but he stopped and turned around. I stared at him in anticipation, curious to know what he still had to say. “Can you give me your new number? So I can reach out to you and know when you’re

Chapter 34Tessa Ford ~•~ “What do you guys think about going on a little vacation for a few weeks?” I asked the kids as we drove back home. “What about school?” The twins echoed in unison. “But I’m excited about it, let’s go,” Jade added, her lips curled into a small smile. “You can skip school for a few weeks. You’re going to have so much fun.” I said, my eyes fixed on the road. After we got back home, the kids ran off to their room while I slid into the couch in the living room. Then I pulled out my phone from my purse and called Nora. She answered the call on the first ring. I was grateful to Nora because she was already there for me. “Hey,” I said with a tired sigh. “What’s going on?” She asked, her voice soft with concern. “He showed up at my house.” “What?” Nora gasped. “How did he get the address?” “From that bitch at the office… she’s definitely getting fired first thing Monday morning.” “Wow, I’m so sorry.” Nora sympathized with me. “So what happened? What did y

Chapter 36Grayson Grant ~•~ The next morning, I called the driver to pick me up at the hotel. My eyes were fixed on my watch as the seconds dragged by. I was getting impatient. It felt like time had suddenly decided to move more slowly, just to test me. I didn’t even get any sleep the previous night because I was up thinking about my child. Whenever I closed my eyes, I kept on imagining how the child looked. I didn’t even know if it was a girl or a boy. Did the child look like me? Or even Raven? A thousand thoughts raced through my mind. A chime on my phone pulled me back to reality. I exhaled in relief when I saw it was a text from the driver, telling me that he was at the parking lot. I stood up immediately and made my way downstairs. When I got into the backseat, the driver apologized for wasting my time. “It’s fine, just drive.” After what felt like an eternity, we arrived at Tessa’s house. A car was parked in her driveway, so it meant that she hadn’t left the house.

Chapter 38Grayson Grant ~•~ “You’ve already taken so much from me, Grayson. Don’t ruin this one for me too.” Tessa’s words cut deeper than I had ever expected. I had taken so much from her already? Trying to know my kids meant I wanted to ruin them? What did she see me as? A monster? Why was she trying to act like our marriage wasn't great? Why was she acting like I was never a good father to Raven? Did she just choose to forget about all the good times we had because of one stupid mistake I made four years ago? “Do you even care about how I feel, Tessa? Have you ever sat down for once to consider my feelings?” Tessa didn’t respond, she just held the kids tighter. I had used my connections and influence to stop them from getting on that plane. It wasn’t exactly easy but I was glad I got it done. When I arrived at the airport and the staff member showed me to the room where they were holding them, I was surprised when I saw two kids. Honestly, I was expecting only one kid

Chapter 40Grayson Grant ~•~ “You’re out of your mind, Grayson.” Tessa sneered, looking at me with disdain. “I hope that you aren’t referring to what I’m thinking.” The truth was that I didn’t want to go down that road, but it was my only option. If she didn’t want to give me a chance, then I needed to use what I had. “I’m talking about whatever you’re thinking, and if you try to take the kids from me, I’ll make sure the whole world knows about it and you’ll be behind bars.”Tessa’s eyes darkened and she stood up from the couch. “If the whole world knows about it, both of us will be behind bars because everything was your fault.” She whispered, pointing accusatory fingers at me. I brushed it off with a dismissive wave. “Let’s not change the topic. Let’s focus on what I came here to talk about.” I said, my tone sharp. That memory was actually an ugly one for me and I didn’t want to be reminded of it. I just brought it up because I wanted Tessa to know how serious I was about bein
