All Chapters of The Billionaire's biggest regret : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The front door clicked shut behind Dominic and Sophia, leaving the mansion eerily silent. I stood frozen in the kitchen, the breakfast dishes still in my hands. Dr. Anthony was coming. The man who had ruined my life for years the one who had lied about my infertility, who had secretly ended pregnancies I never knew I was carrying was on his way here, while I was completely alone.My hands trembled as I set the plates down. The pain in my lower abdomen had become a constant companion, a quiet reminder that I was no longer barren. I was pregnant. Carrying the child Dominic and I had dreamed of for so long. But revealing it now would put both me and the baby in immediate danger.I had to act fast. The flash drive was gone, taken by Dominic, but I had seen enough of its contents to know the truth. Dr. Anthony Black and Sophia were working together. They had been from the beginning. The poison in Dominic’s system was making him weaker every day, turning him into someone I barely recognized

“No…” I whispered, my voice breaking as terror flooded through me. Warm blood continued to trickle down my leg, soaking into my clothes. The pain in my abdomen was no longer a warning—it was a scream. My baby. After years of being told I could never have one, this tiny life was slipping away right in front of the people who had caused all my suffering.I gripped the banister tighter, my knuckles turning white, trying to stay upright. The world tilted slightly as I looked down at Dominic, Sophia, and Dr. Anthony standing in the foyer like judges ready to sentence me.Dominic’s face shifted from anger to shock. For a brief moment, I saw a flicker of the man I married the one who used to hold me when I was scared. “Anna? What’s happening? Are you hurt?”Sophia stepped forward quickly, her hand on Dominic’s arm. “She’s faking it again, darling. Look at her always the victim. Dr. Anthony is right here. He can check her.”Dr. Anthony nodded smoothly, already climbing the stairs with his med

Darkness swallowed me whole, pulling me under like a heavy tide. The last thing I remembered was Dr. Anthony’s calm face as he injected something into my IV line, the cold rush spreading through my veins. Then nothing.When I woke, the hospital room was dim, lit only by the soft glow of monitors. My body felt heavy, like it belonged to someone else. The sharp pain in my abdomen had dulled to a deep, throbbing ache. I slowly turned my head, wincing at the movement. Dominic sat in a chair beside the bed, his head bowed, hands clasped tightly together. Grace stood near the window, staring out into the night. Sophia was nowhere in sight.“Dominic…” My voice came out as a weak rasp.He lifted his head instantly, eyes red-rimmed with exhaustion and something deeper conflict. “Anna. You’re awake. The doctors… they managed to stabilize you. The bleeding has slowed.”I instinctively moved my hand to my stomach. The fetal monitor was still attached, its steady, faint beeps the most beautiful so

The hospital room felt smaller after Sophia left, her threat hanging in the air like poison. I stared at the fake ultrasound image she had left behind, my hands shaking as I tore it into pieces. The real monitor beside me continued its steady rhythm, a fragile proof that my baby was still fighting. But for how long?Sleep came in fragments, interrupted by nurses checking vitals and the constant fear that Dr. Anthony would return. When morning light filtered through the blinds, Grace entered the room alone. Her face was drawn, eyes sharp with the weight of what she had discovered overnight.“Anna,” she said, closing the door firmly behind her. “I looked at the flash drive. Some files are convincing. Too convincing. I’ve asked a trusted contact to verify them discreetly. But Dominic… he’s not himself. The changes in him are real.”Relief washed over me, mixed with exhaustion. “Thank you. Dr. Anthony admitted it last night. His mother, the revenge, the poison. He tried to…” I touched my

Dominic’s demand hung in the sterile hospital air like a guillotine. “Explain this, Anna.” He held up the printed photos Sophia had thrust at him grainy images of me on the hotel rooftop with the masked man. They looked damning, even to me.My heart raced, matching the erratic beeps of the fetal monitor. The baby’s heartbeat had stabilized but remained fragile. I couldn’t afford more stress, but the truth was my only weapon now.“I followed Sophia that night,” I said, my voice hoarse but steady. “She met a masked man at the hotel. He approached me afterward and gave me evidence about their plan. It wasn’t an affair. It was the only way I could learn the truth.”Sophia laughed bitterly, crossing her arms. “Convenient story. You expect us to believe some mysterious stranger just handed you proof? Dominic, she’s been lying since the beginning. The hotel staff confirmed she asked for Sophia’s room number.”Dr. Anthony nodded from the doorway, his expression one of professional concern. “S
