"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage.
We had been married for exactly three years—three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment.
For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage.
Today, I finally received his message:
"I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport."
When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined—he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend.
In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air.
Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken—to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again.
He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end—almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be.
"Aurora, come back. I regret everything!"
Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me—only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

Billionaire's Regret, Too Late!

They were alarmed and at the same time very curious to know what Aurora had done to the great Mr Dumont.


Aurora was a very beautiful woman. People knew and acknowledged that fact.


She had the kind of beauty that could turn heads instantly when she walked into any room full of people.


Could it be that she had an affair with Mr Dumont?


Lucien stared at Aurora, questioningly.


“Aurora, care to explain what this is about?”He questioned, coldly.


It felt as if someone had poured ice on his body.


How could Aurora know or even offend someone like Mr Dumont?


He recalled when she told him she had a lover.


Even if he had told her that their marriage was an open one, he always believed that she could never get involved with another man.


She could never have anything to do with another man, talk more of a man like Mr Dumont who was definitely out of her league.
