All Chapters of The Billionaire's biggest regret : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The paramedics loaded me into the ambulance with careful hands, the sirens already wailing as we sped back toward the hospital. Dominic rode with me, his hand never leaving mine. The pain in my abdomen had settled into a dull, persistent ache, but the fetal monitor they attached in the ambulance showed the baby’s heartbeat holding steady. Small mercies in a night of chaos.“You’re safe now,” Dominic whispered, his voice rough with exhaustion and guilt. “I won’t let them hurt you or the baby again.”I squeezed his hand, studying his face in the flashing lights. The poison had taken a visible toll on his skin was pale, his eyes sunken. But there was clarity there too, the fog lifting as the truth sank in. “We need to get you treated. The toxin… Dr. Anthony admitted how long he’s been giving it to you.”He nodded, leaning his head back against the seat. “I feel it. The anger, the confusion it wasn’t me. I let them turn me into someone who hurt the only person who truly loved me.”Grace f

The hospital wing descended into controlled chaos after the attack. Security swarmed the hallways, locking down every entrance while Dr. Ramirez and her team worked to stabilize me. The baby’s heartbeat had dipped dangerously low again, but with swift intervention medication and careful monitoring it steadied once more. I lay in the bed, exhausted and aching, Dominic’s hand gripping mine like a lifeline.“I’m sorry,” he whispered for the hundredth time, his forehead pressed against our joined hands. The gash on his head had been bandaged, but the guilt in his eyes ran deeper than any wound. “I brought this on us. My blindness, my weakness…”“You were poisoned,” I reminded him gently, though the words didn’t erase the months of pain. “They played us both. But we’re fighting back now.”Grace paced the room like a general, phone pressed to her ear as she coordinated with investigators and company security. “The takeover attempt is confirmed. Several board members with ties to Dr. Anthony

The evidence room at the hospital police annex became our new battlefield. Dominic, Grace, and a small team of trusted officers moved quickly, transferring the critical files, flash drive copies, and recordings to a more secure location while I remained under heavy guard in my room. The pain in my abdomen had eased slightly with medication, but every contraction reminder kept me on edge. The baby’s heartbeat monitor was my constant companion, a fragile rhythm I clung to.Dominic returned briefly, his face set with exhaustion but resolve. “The remaining ally is a security guard with ties to Dr. Anthony. He’s been arrested, but there may be one more. We’re close, Anna. The police are raiding the last known locations tonight.”I nodded, squeezing his hand. “Be careful. The poison… you only have hours left before the final stage.”He kissed my forehead. “I’ll make it. For you. For our child.”As he left to join the operation, Grace stayed behind, her presence a steady anchor. “You’ve been

Victor Lang made his move the next morning.A longtime senior board member with deep ties to Dr. Anthony, he leaked carefully edited financial documents to the media, painting Dominic as unstable and me as a manipulative gold-digger who had fabricated the pregnancy for sympathy.Sophia, from behind bars, fed the fire through her lawyer releasing statements about my “secret meetings” and questioning the paternity of my child. The press frenzy was immediate and vicious.Dominic paced our bedroom at the mansion, his face pale but his eyes clearer than they had been in months. The antidote was working, but the lingering effects still showed in his occasional tremors. Lang has enough allies on the board to force another emergency vote. If they succeed, the company could slip away before we finish cleaning the house.”I sat up slowly in bed, one hand resting on my rounded belly. The baby kicked in response, a strong reminder of what we were fighting for. “We have the evidence. The real file

The warning about the doctor on Sophia’s payroll sent another wave of paranoia through the mansion. Grace immediately ordered a review of every medical professional involved in my care. Dr. Ramirez submitted to a full background check and stepped aside temporarily while an independent team took over. Dominic stayed glued to my side, his protectiveness growing with every new threat. “I won’t lose you or the baby. Not after everything we’ve been through.”The new medical team confirmed the previous medications were safe, but the constant vigilance was exhausting. My contractions remained irregular but present, a persistent reminder that the pregnancy was still high-risk. I spent long hours in bed, one hand resting on my belly, feeling the baby’s kicks and whispering promises of safety and a better future. The fear of losing this miracle child after all the lies and sabotage was a constant shadow.One afternoon, Grace brought news from the police. “Sophia tried to bribe a guard for outsi
