Her Return, His Regret novel Chapter 105

“Congratulations on getting rid of Lewis Hendrix, ma’am. Now you can run the company without any obstacles,” Hannah Collins, Lora’s assistant, said.

Lora smiled.

Although Lewis and Craig were released on bail for them to await trial, it was a relief not to have them in the company. Otherwise, they could have caused the downfall of Davis & Co.

“That’s right… is Miss Kingsley’s design ready for production?” Lora asked.

“Yes, it is. I’ll monitor the project closely to make sure no one tries to steal it again. But no one would dare to now that Lewis is paying for his actions,” Hannah replied. “Mr Kingsley really loves you, ma’am. He sorted everything out and you didn’t even have to lift a finger.”

Lora smiled at the thought of Ryan. Indeed, Ryan had been very nice to her.

He put her first and always prioritised her safety and happiness.

With him, she felt secure.

When he was near, she felt at ease as though she was home.

“Arrange a special gift to give to Diane Kingsley as an apology for what almost happened to her design. Perhaps we can give her a free necklace or some diamond earrings from our best collection,” Lora instructed.

Hannah typed the instructions on her tablet and replied, “I’ll work on it, ma’am.”

After Hannah left, Lora’s phone chimed and a message popped up on her screen.

When she opened the message, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

She had just received an amount of four billion dollars from an unknown account.

Furrowing her eyebrows, Lora was about to call the bank when she received a call from Ryan.

“Hey, Ryan...”

“Hey, baby. Have you received the money?” Ryan responded on the phone.

Lora narrowed her eyes when she realised the money was from Ryan. She frowned and questioned, “Why did you send me all that money?”

“It’s child support. Since you and the kids are not staying with me yet, I have to support them as their father,” Ryan replied.

“Seriously?” Lora remarked. “Who gives four billion dollars for child support?”

“That’s what our children deserve. Their father is a billionaire after all…” Ryan replied in his deep voice. “In fact, I wouldn’t mind giving you my whole income. But I know you wouldn’t agree, so…”

Lora sighed and responded, “I’ll let this pass since it’s for the kids but don’t send so much money next time.”

“There won't be a next time, because soon we'll move into our own home and we will take care of the kids together as husband and wife,” Ryan said.

Lora blushed, biting her lower lip.

They didn't want to rush things because they wanted to give Freya time to accept their relationship. However, Lora still couldn't wait to live with Ryan again since things were different this time- their love was mutual.

It felt good to love someone.... and to know that special someone loved you back.

They chatted a bit about this and that before Ryan stated, “Grandpa wants the children to visit the Kingsley mansion and although I’m not a fan of Dad right now, I think he has to meet the children. He doesn’t know he’s a grandfather yet.”
