Ex-Husband Regret: Chasing His Billionaire Wife Back.

Chapter 3

Amber POV

Banging the huge iron gate became impossible after my hands turned red and sour, my eyes were red and also sour from the tears its been spilling.

I looked around me, with nothing but my purse in my hands, i had no where to go, no one to ask for help, My family didn't really like me, i wasn't any one favorite.

Janet had always been favored by both my parents and my elder brother, i was like the black sheep of the family, i managed to inherit the company because it went bankrupt and my father was even relived to hand over the debt to me.

No one expected me to turn things around and made the company into a multi million dollar company, this move only ignited more hatred from Travis my brother, he felt threatened, his junior sister managed to save a company that he ruined.

While many thoughts wandered through my head, my phone suddenly rang, looking at the caller ID, my heart skipped a bit, it was my mum, she hardly calls, i hesitantly pressed the answer button and her loud voice shouted through the phone.

"Amber, come to the hospital right now, your father just had a seizure!!"

She only said this word and without waiting for me to answer, she hung up instantly, i chuckled lightly. My heart skipped several times, my Father had a seizure?

My father had always been a healthy man, but after handling the company to Travis and watched him ruin it, his heart began to fail him and he developed stroke, he was taken to the hospital, it was at the hospital he handed the company over to me.

I had always been the black sheep of the family, for some reasons unknown to me, my parents hated my guts, even though Janet and i were twin sisters, the way they treated us were stalk different, Janet was treated like a treasured princess, always getting whatever she asked for, no matter how absurd, while i was treated like a goddamn slave, always at the shadow of my twin sister who was at the forefront.

This action from them further ignited the hatred from Travis, he also began treating me like thrash, not even acknowledging me as his sister when we went for court which broke my heart, Janet was the only one who ever cared genuinely for me, we were best of friends, so its really hard to digest that she would do such a thing to me.

At the hospital, i rushed to the VIP ward and met Travis and my mother pacing round the waiting room, obviously stressed and worried, i walked up to them cautiously.

"Mum..."

I called out, only to be melt with my mother bloodshot eyes, she glared at me, walked up to me, raised her hands and slapped me across the face, the resounding slap even drew attention from the nurses and other visitors nearby, i held my cheeks as tears threatened to fall from my eyes.

"Are you stupid? What took you so long to get here, you unfilai child? Your dad is in there battling for his life and you know to come now?"

"Of course, she would have been somewhere messing around, you shouldn't be that surprised." Travis added.

I looked at them with shock and pain in my eyes, i had just gone through the worst heartbreak of all times and this is how am being treated by my parents, the emotions i had held behind resurfaced, i burst into tears then and there, crying and wailing my eyes out.

"How can you be so cruel to your own daughter? What have i ever done wrong, what.." I yelled in the midst of my tears, my mum barely scoffed and snarled, she looked around her, obviously checking to see if anyone is watching the embarrassment that i have become.

I scoffed, what did i expect, i stood up and turned to leave, leaving this words in the air for them.

"Tell Dad i dropped by, he wouldn't want to see me anyways, am afraid i might aggravate his situation." I murmured while clutching my Gucci designer purse to my shoulders.

"Where do you think you are going without Paying the bills? Who is gonna pay the bills?" My mum questioned, my eyes dimmed, Bills, yeah, right, their precious daughter has the company, she must be able to pay the bills now.

That moment, Janet walked majestically into the Waiting room with the usual triumphant smirk plastered on her face, my eyes narrowed slightly at her, i looked for any trace of Lucas, but i guess he didn't come with her, my heart crumbled, my expectations futile, Janet ignored me, like i didn't exist, like she didn't just snatched away my husband and company.

"Mum what's going on? I could hear your voice from miles away, what's happening? Is dad okay?" She feigned concern, probably to scorn me, Janet had never been the one to show concern to dad, she always find a excuse or the other whenever she was called to the hospital.

"Your dad went into a seizure, the Doctors are operating on him, its nothing serious, you don't have to worry angel." My mother voice was soothing, even consoling.

Janet faked sobs, i know because this things don't move her immediately my brother rushed to her, shoving her into his hands and trying to console her, a sharp contrast to how he had treated me earlier, together, they looked like a perfect family, maybe i wasn't meant to be with them.

"Amber, pay the bills before leaving.." My mother didn't forget to add as she saw me walking away, i paused and wanted to say something, but Janet voice overthrow mine.

"It's okay mum, i would pay the bills, i want to do this for Dad." Her voice was mixed with fear only me could detect, she probably don't want mum to know why she snatched my husband and the company.

"You don't have to do Janet, Amber would pay the bills like she have always done." Travis muttered.

I couldn't bear to watch anymore and walked away, tears threatening to fall from my eyes, i can't let them see me in this vulnerable state, i walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the last floor.

I walked out of the hospital, stood near the parking lot, no cab was in sight, so i decided to book one, i brought out my phone and switched it on, when a voice suddenly spoke behind me.

"Excuse me young lady." I almost fell over in shock, i turned back to see a young masculine man dressed like a Russian secret agent guard, his build is sturdy and his expression lucid, my heart skipped a bit. I looked round the Hospital and i was reassured, he wouldn't try anything crazy with a lot of people going in and out.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"Please come with me, my Boss would like to speak to you." The Russian guard blurted out.

"Are you crazy? Why would i go with you, do i even know you?"

"You don't have to worry about this Miss, my Boss would make the introduction, you have to follow me." The guard said firmly, making me want to vomit blood in anger, what nonsense, i glanced at the tilted glass of the black SUV and i scoffed.

I ignored him and turned to my phone, hurriedly booking a ride but before i could click on the final button, the next words the guard said made me hesitate, i turned to him with wide eyes.

"What are you talking about?"

"My Boss would like to negotiate a deal with you, Miss Amber Johnson."

My eyes titled, for him to be able to know my full name, they must have done some indept research about me, i didn't bear the usual family name, Leno, instead i beared my grandmother last name, doing this much research on me shows their level of seriously, i decided to follow him to the black SUV limited edition model, after all i have nothing to lose.
