The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 130- Back on Familiar Ground
The flight home felt much shorter than the one that had taken Daniel abroad.Perhaps because his mind wasn’t occupied with meetings anymore.Or perhaps because every passing hour meant he was getting closer to home.Most of the flight was quiet.His assistant spent part of it reviewing documents on her tablet while Daniel answered a handful of emails that had accumulated during takeoff.Before long, even that was done.He leaned back against his seat and glanced out the window.Clouds stretched endlessly beneath them, bright white under the afternoon sun.For the first time in days, he felt completely relaxed.No interviews.No negotiations.No schedules packed from sunrise until night.Just a flight home.A soft chime echoed through the cabin.“Ladies and gentlemen, we have begun our descent…”Daniel looked out of the window again.The familiar skyline slowly came into view.Home.A faint smile appeared on his face.Beside him, his assistant noticed.“Happy to be back already, sir?”
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 129- Homeward Bound
The final morning of Daniel’s business trip arrived sooner than he had expected.For the first time in days, his schedule wasn’t overflowing with meetings and paperwork.Instead, the hotel room was unusually quiet.Daniel stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, one hand tucked into his pocket as he overlooked the waking city below.It had been a productive trip.Everything that needed to be accomplished had been accomplished.The contracts had been signed.Future collaborations had been discussed.Every objective his father had assigned to him had been completed successfully.With a satisfied nod, he turned away from the window.His suitcase lay open on the bed.Most of his belongings had already been neatly folded inside.A soft knock interrupted his thoughts.“Come in.”His assistant entered carrying a tablet.“Good morning, sir.”“Morning.”“I’ve confirmed your flight.”Daniel accepted the tablet.“you mean ‘our’ flight.”“Departure?”“Eleven thirty this morning.”He nodded.“Perfect
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 128- A Trail That Went Back Years
Alexander sat quietly in his office, his fingers drumming lightly against the wooden desk.His thoughts refused to settle.Victoria had come.Left.And with her departure, she had somehow left him with even more questions than answers.But one thing remained certain.Daniel Carter.If Alexander wanted any chance of understanding what he was up against, he needed to know more about the man.At least try again, to know more about him.He reached for his office phone.“Come in.”A few moments later, there was a knock.His secretary stepped inside.“You called, sir?”“I need you to find someone.”She nodded.“Yes, sir.”“A private investigator.”“Another one?”A look from Alexander made her shiver.She quickly recovered.“I’ll arrange it immediately.”“Good.”Within the hour, the investigator arrived.Alexander wasted no time.“I want everything you can find on Daniel Carter.”The investigator accepted the photograph Alexander slid across the table.“Everything?”“Everything.”The man stu
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 127- More Than Meets the Eye
Victoria had never considered herself a curious person.If anything, she preferred minding her own business.People came and went from her life all the time, and she had never cared enough to learn more about them.But Amelia Hart…For some reason, she couldn’t stop thinking about her.Perhaps it was because of Daniel Carter.Perhaps it was because of her father’s request.Or perhaps…It was simply because Amelia continued to surprise her.The morning after visiting Alexander at the company, Victoria sat alone in the small lounge connected to her bedroom.A cup of coffee rested on the table beside her while her laptop remained open on her lap.She stared at the screen for a long moment.Finally, she reached for her phone.“Hello.”“Good morning, ma’am.”“I need a favor.”“Of course.”“I want a complete background report on Amelia Hart.”There was a brief pause.“The second largest shareholder of the company?”“Yes.”“How detailed would you like it?”Victoria leaned back against the so
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 126- A Moment to Breathe
Daniel’s day started before the sun had fully risen.By the time most people were waking up, he was already dressed in a charcoal gray suit, seated in the back of the car with a tablet in hand, reviewing documents for the day’s schedule.His assistant sat opposite him, equally focused.“You have three meetings this morning, sir,” she reminded him.Daniel nodded without looking up.“I know.”“The last one might run a little longer than expected.”“That’s fine.”“You also have lunch scheduled with Mr. Phillip Vance before your evening appointments.”Daniel finally looked up and smiled faintly.“So lunch is my break?”She smiled back.“The closest thing to one.”Daniel chuckled softly.“I’ll take it.”The car rolled to a stop.The day officially began.One meeting turned into another.Presentations.Negotiations.Discussions.Signatures.Handshakes.Daniel barely had enough time to drink water before someone else needed his attention.Thankfully, years of running Carter Global Holdings h
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 125- A New Day
Morning sunlight filtered gently through the curtains of Amelia’s childhood bedroom.She stirred beneath the soft duvet before lazily opening her eyes.For a brief second, she stared at the familiar ceiling, confused about where she was.Then it came back to her.Curt’s birthday.Her parents’ house.The family dinner.Daniel.A smile slowly found its way onto her lips.The memory of their phone call the previous evening replayed in her mind, making her heart feel unusually light.He was safe.He hadn’t ignored her.He had simply been overwhelmed with work.She had overreacted.He had apologized.She had apologized too.Everything felt… right again.Stretching comfortably, Amelia reached for her phone on the bedside table.The first thing she checked wasn’t the time.It was her messages.Sure enough, there it was.A text from Daniel.Good morning, miss hart. I hope you slept well. Busy day ahead for me again, can’t wait to see you tomorrow, but I wanted to wish you a beautiful morning
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 35- Almost Easy
Amelia stepped out of her building just as the evening air began to settle into something softer.The city hadn’t slowed down, not really, but there was a shift in the atmosphere. The rush had thinned, the noise less sharp, the lights beginning to glow in ways that made everything feel a little les
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 34- A Different Kind of Calm
The car door shut softly behind her, but the sound echoed louder in Amelia’s chest than it should have.She didn’t look back.Not at the building.Not at the glass doors she had just walked out of.Not at the place that now held more of her past than she was ready to face all at once.“Drive,” she
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 33- What She Refuses to Lose
The door didn’t just open.It slammed.The sharp sound cut through the silence of Alexander’s office, dragging his attention away from the file still resting in his hands. He didn’t need to look up to know who it was.Only one person walked into his space like that.Victoria.She stood at the door
The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 32- The Things He Missed
Alexander closed the door to his office a little harder than necessary.The sound echoed briefly, then disappeared into the silence that followed.He didn’t move immediately.Didn’t sit.Didn’t reach for the stack of files waiting on his desk.He just stood there.Still.Because for the first time
