The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 2768

Feeling sorry now that he knew she was going to sue him, huh?

What a joke.

Regina knew that if Ahab had not lost his uncle's support, he would only continue to torment others. Her resolve strengthened as she thought of the interns before her, each one weathering the same storm she had endured.

"You're only playing the pity card because I threatened to take you to court. Did you feel even an ounce of remorse when you were bullying us rookies? You seemed to be having the time of your life, snatching our stories, grabbing our finished pieces, reaping where you didn't sow."

The boss sighed, signaling for Regina to stop elaborating. The last thing he needed was for this scandal to spill over into other departments, possibly tarnishing the reputation of the entertainment section.

But her colleagues, some of them transferred from New Blossom Press, who had suffered the same fate at Ahab's hands, crowded around, backing Regina up. "Yeah, you were pretty smug when you were stealing our work. Who are you putting on this sad show for now?"

The boss knew better than to add fuel to the fire. If he did, they might just turn on him next. Better to play it cool.

"I know I messed up, okay? I'm sorry! I'm getting the ax, aren't I? I won't be able to do it again, so please, just forgive me this one time," Ahab pleaded, his eyes rimmed with red. It was hard to believe this was the same man who had strutted around like he owned the place just a quarter of an hour ago.
