HIS UNCLE’S WIFE: BILLIONAIRE’S REGRET Chapter 24
The black Porsche rolled smoothly into the grand entrance canopy of the Imperial Grand Convention Center, where luxury vehicles had already formed an endless line.Guests dressed in designer gowns and tailored tuxedos stepped onto the crimson carpet one after another as photographers lined both sides behind velvet barriers.The moment Damien’s vehicle came to a stop, several reporters immediately recognized the license plate.“That’s Damien Stark!”“He actually came!”“And Mrs. Stark is with him!” Camera flashes instantly erupted.Damien stepped out first. Tonight, the usually reserved billionaire carried an even stronger presence. His black tuxedo fit him flawlessly, every movement composed and controlled as he walked around the vehicle before opening Katie’s door himself.He extended his hand and she accepted it. The instant she stepped onto the red carpet… The photographers exploded into action.“Mr. Stark!”“Mrs. Stark! This way!”“Look over here!”“Can we have one picture togethe

Evelyn smiled politely before answering. “Mr. Stark said that from the moment you step into that gala tonight, you are not to leave his side for even a second.”Katie frowned slightly. “Why?”Evelyn hesitated before lowering her voice. “His exact words were…” She looked directly at Katie. “‘Tonight, everyone will be watching my wife. Some will come to congratulate her… and some will come hoping to use her against me. Tell her not to trust anyone who approaches her alone.’”Katie’s fingers unconsciously tightened around the sparkling gown. Damien’s warning from the previous day immediately resurfaced inside her mind.“Many people hate me… and now that our marriage has been made public, they’ll come after you.”Katie lowered her eyes quietly. “I understand.”Evelyn smiled reassuringly. “There’s no reason to be frightened, Mrs. Stark. Mr. Stark’s security team will also be present throughout the evening.”Katie nodded gently. “I’m not frightened.”She wasn’t. What unsettled her was the r

The rays of morning sunlight slipped through the half-open curtains, spreading a warm golden glow across the bedroom.Katie stirred beneath the blanket, she remained caught between sleep and consciousness, her breathing slow and steady as fragments of the previous day drifted through her mind.The hospital, Donald's accident, Damien’s father asking for grandchildren.Then…Damien’s voice echoed once more inside her thoughts.“If we’re going to continue living as husband and wife… perhaps we should begin doing the things a husband and wife are expected to do.”Her eyelashes fluttered open. The unfamiliar scent surrounding her made her freeze before she even moved.It wasn’t her pillow nor her floral fragrance she had grown accustomed to in her room. It was something warmer, something distinctly masculine.Her heart skipped. Very slowly, Katie lowered her gaze and found a masculine arm resting securely around her waist.Her eyes widened and her entire body went rigid. She looked upward.

Damien held Katie’s gaze without looking away as the question lingered between them.“What exactly are you thinking?” she asked again, her voice calm despite the uncertainty she was trying so hard to conceal.Damien sighed. “My father isn’t asking for something unreasonable. He believes we’ve started a real marriage, so does everyone else.”Katie’s fingers tightened unconsciously around the sleeve of her coat. Damien looked toward the large hospital window overlooking the gardens before speaking again. “If we’re going to continue living as husband and wife…”He paused briefly. “Perhaps we should begin doing the things a husband and wife are expected to do.”Katie understood exactly what he meant and her heartbeat became uneven, She drew a slow breath before forcing herself to remain composed. “Okay...”Damien looked back at her. “You agree?”Katie managed a small smile. “We’re married.” She lowered her eyes briefly. “I knew that eventually we’d have to stop pretending in certain area

Donald lay motionless under the pale hospital lights while the cardiac monitor remained the only sound inside the intensive care unit. Damien stood beside the bed with one hand resting lightly against the metal rail, his gaze fixed on his father’s pale face. Gerald had finally managed to compose himself. Although his eyes were still red, he had stopped pacing and now stood beside the window with both hands buried inside his pockets. Neither brother spoke for several minutes. Eventually, Gerald broke the silence. “The police called me while I was driving here.” Damien slowly turned his head. “What did they say?” “They’re still investigating.” Damien frowned. “Were there other vehicles involved?” Gerald nodded. “There was a truck involved.” His jaw tightened. “The driver claims the brakes failed.” Gerald looked toward their unconscious father before speaking quietly. “Dad has always been careful, he never speeds or drives recklessly.” A faint movement caught Damien’s at

The security officer struggled to catch his breath before speaking. “Sir…” His voice came out strained. “Mr. Donald Stark was involved in a serious accident while returning from work.” Damien’s expression hardened instantly. “What?” “The ambulance took him directly to St. Vincent Medical Center.” The officer swallowed before continuing. “He’s already been taken into surgery.” Shock flickered across Damien’s face. “How bad is it?” “The doctors said…” The guard hesitated, clearly choosing his words. “His left leg suffered extensive damage.” Damien didn’t wait to hear anything else. He turned sharply toward one of the housekeepers. “My keys.” The woman immediately hurried toward the console table near the entrance, grabbed a set of car keys, and rushed back without wasting a second. “Sir.” Damien took them from her before striding toward the front door. Katie immediately followed behind him. James instinctively stepped aside to clear their path. Within moments, they reached the g
