After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 156 A Cookie Date
(Lydia)The familiar weight of Thomas’ hand on my thigh felt like it was healing something inside of me.I didn’t speak much after that because it felt like the lump in my throat would burst and I would start sobbing.The years of our separation were some of the hardest years for me. I had lost my partner cruelly. Someone who had told me that they would be there for me in sickness and health suddenly shunning me felt like I had been pierced with a stake directly at the heart.I had missed him dearly in those days.However, what I had missed the most was this. The familiarity that comes between two married people who know each other very well.Like me drowning in guilt and confusion and him placing his hand on my thigh in support and giving me reassuring words with a reassuring smile, knowing that it would make me feel better.It was these little things that I had missed the most during those years.I tried to forget about them. I tried to replace the feeling of emptiness inside of me,
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 157 Fate Brought Us Together
(Ruby)No matter how hard I tried, I just could not focus on work.I had a deadline in my mind, there was a list of locations that I had selected after careful consideration. There was another list of potential names for the boutique.But I just could not work.I don’t think I had ever been this distracted from work even during my most emotionally taxing days.I knew the reason for me feeling like this.Jack.His sudden presence at the house yesterday had not surprised me that much. He did that sometimes, asking me to sneak out because he wanted to see me before going back home.Hence, this time I hadn’t thought much about it either. Until Lydia had seen us. The way she had thundered towards Jack and looked at him with accusatory eyes told me that something was not okay.I knew my sister very well and I also knew that she could not fake an expression for the life of her. Our whole lives, everything she was thinking and feeling was always written all over her face – which meant it wasn
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 158 Heart As Heavy As A Stone
(Jack)I was at lunch with some investors that Thomas was supposed to meet but I could not focus on one word that was coming out of their mouths.I was so utterly distracted by the storm that was my life that work felt like something that I could not prioritize.I had only come to the office today just so I could escape my mother because I knew that if I showed her my face at home, I would be whisked away on another date before I could even think to refuse.The satisfaction of telling mother that her first choice had been thwarted was so amazing that it almost rid me of the headache that I had since my argument with Lydia, however, my heart still felt as heavy as a stone and this feeling won’t go away until I am done with this entire ordeal.I only had about a week to figure out what I wanted to say to Ruby before Lydia told her everything on her own.I wouldn’t let it happen though.I love Ruby, I truly do, and wanting her hurt would be the last thing I would want.I know that just t
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 159 Side Effects
(Lydia)There is no better feeling in the world than sleeping in the middle of your children.When I opened my eyes in the morning, I could feel the weight of two people on either side of me. At that moment, I felt like I could conquer the world.Gently, I brushed stray strands out of their eyes and gently rolled them into the middle before leaving the bed, but not before securing the sides with pillows.It was a habit borne out of always making sure neither of them rolled out of bed and injured themselves.Yawning, I opened the door to my room and immediately bumped into Mama.“Wake up early?” I asked her but she shied away from me.My brows furrowed when she kept walking ahead. “Mama?” I questioned, walking after her to stop her with a hand on her shoulder.“Is everything alright?” I questioned.Mama turned and gave me a watery smile, “Lydia? Of course, it’s all fine. You know me and how emotional I am.”There was a smile on her face but it didn’t reach her eyes. Reassuring words we
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 160 Day at the Museum
(Thomas)I picked up the kids and Lydia from their place at around 2 o’clock.After almost a week of missing them, the idea had popped into my head as a way of spending some time as a whole. The want to have my family all together kept me in its grasp for the past few days.I knew I should not get used to this because who knows what would happen during the time Lydia would spend away. She could find someone infinitely better than me and that would be it.However, the way Lydia smiled at me when she took the passenger seat gave me comfort in the fact that I was not alone in feeling this way.“Soooo,” I drawled, looking in the rearview mirror at the kids strapped to their chairs, “Who’s excited to see some real dinosaur bones?!!”Mabel and Miles cheered from the backseat.I knew they would love to visit the museum. One delightful thing about getting to know my children at a stage where they have their own thoughts and interests has been the way I can easily find the similarities between
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 161 What I Want
(Margaret)The house was quiet.It was a weekend, Saturday to be specific, but still, the house was quiet.It didn’t used to be like this.When my husband was still alive, the mansion used to always see people coming and going. There used to be brunches and dinner parties.We even held a ball once.Now, the ballroom so intricately created collected dust because there was no use for it.“Eden,” I stopped a staff member coming out of the kitchen and asked, “Do you know when Jack and Thomas left the mansion?”“Mr. Jack left early in the morning without eating his breakfast and Mr. Thomas left after noon,” Eden replied.I excused her immediately and sat on the living room couch, realizing the fact that none of them had bothered to inform me of their plans.Was I truly such a horrible mother that both of my sons did not even acknowledge my presence while living under the same roof?I didn’t think I had ever done any of them some grave harm. I had only ever wanted the best of the best for t
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 162 Help!
(Lydia)It felt like things just kept piling over for me.I was worried about Mama, but then Thomas came to the rescue without even knowing and helped me spend a calming day together. By the end of which, I had gotten a call from Nathan.The call was so surprising because I had almost forgotten what we talked about during the dinner. Only when Nathan asked if I had made a decision did it come back to me.To be honest, I wasn’t so sure about this whole thing. If I pretended to flirt or be close to Nathan, that would just put me in more of a spotlight. Did I really want that? Because then it would mean that my family would also be under heavy scrutiny and I did not want that at all.My head hurt just thinking about how I was going to handle the management team and how my reply would affect them.I looked at the time and realized Mama and Ruby must have gotten home by now. I had asked Ruby to accompany Mama to the hospital so that she could have some support.Ruby had been very quiet for
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 163 No More Secrets
(Ruby)I wasn’t able to breathe easier.Not until I knew how Mama was.We had just gotten back from the hospital and I had settled her down and handed her a cup of tea to drink.I had only left her for a couple of minutes and the next thing I knew, Lydia was screaming for me to come for help.It was good that Thomas had been present. He had stayed behind with the kids and Lydia and I had accompanied Mama to the hospital. The entire way, I could not stop the tears from my eyes.It was all my fault. I should have been there with her. She had probably gotten up to get something instead of calling out to me and now we were at the Emergency waiting room of the hospital, waiting for anyone to come and tell us what was going on.“She’ll be okay,” Lydia whispered beside me but it felt like she was trying to convince herself more than me.We waited for another five minutes before the door to the emergency room snapped open. The doctor on rounds walked towards us and informed us, “There is noth

(Ruby)I stood outside Jack’s apartment door, my hand hesitating over the knocker. I shouldn’t be here. I’d already done more than enough, stitched him up, watching him avoid my questions like he always did. But despite every logical reason to stay away, I was here. Because this wasn’t just anyone, it was Jack. The Jack who had once made me laugh so hard I cried, who had shared countless quiet evenings with me in this very apartment. The Jack who, despite all the hurt and chaos, still managed to make my heart skip a beat when I thought of him. I pressed my lips together, pushing the memories aside. This wasn’t about rekindling anything; it was about making sure he was okay. He had shown up at my door injured and vulnerable, and no matter how much time had passed or how complicated things had gotten, I couldn’t ignore that. Taking a deep breath, I knocked. When Jack opened the door, his surprise was clear, though he quickly masked it with that practiced cool demeanor of his.
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 467 On My Terms
(Jack)I sat on the edge of my couch, staring at the bandage on my side, frustration boiling just beneath the surface. The room was quiet, save for the faint hum of the refrigerator in the kitchen. The family doctor had left about an hour ago after re-dressing my wound. He was efficient and professional, as always, and I appreciated the care. But damn it, why hadn’t I thought to call him in the first place? The moment I got injured, my instincts hadn’t pointed me toward practicality or logic. No, instead, I’d ended up at Ruby’s apartment, bloodied and in desperate need of stitches. I didn’t even remember the exact route I’d taken to get there, just that I had. Like my brain had been hardwired to seek her out, even when it made no sense. It embarrassed me now. Ruby had been nothing but calm and steady as she stitched me up, but I could tell how unsettled she was underneath that brave exterior. And I’d put her in that position, dragged her into something she had no business being
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 466 Date Night
(Lydia)The drive back to the mansion felt electric, charged with an energy I couldn’t quite put into words. Thomas’s hand rested on my thigh as he navigated the quiet streets, his fingers brushing gently against my skin. Neither of us said much; the connection between us was palpable without needing words. By the time we reached the house and stepped through the door, it was as if the air around us crackled with anticipation. Ruby had left a note on the counter saying the kids were asleep and she’d see us tomorrow. I smiled, grateful for her support, but my focus was entirely on Thomas. As soon as the door to our bedroom clicked shut behind us, it was like a dam broke. His lips were on mine in an instant, hot and urgent, pulling me into him as if the space between us was unbearable. My hands found their way to his shoulders, then his hair, as I pressed closer, feeling the hard lines of his body against mine. “Lydia,” he murmured, his voice low and thick with desire. I didn’t
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 465 For Everything
(Lydia)When I woke up in the morning, I felt completely refreshed. Today was special. Thomas and I had a date planned, just the two of us. It had been far too long since we’d had an evening to ourselves, and the thought of spending uninterrupted time with him filled me with excitement. Thomas was already awake, sitting on the edge of the bed as he adjusted his tie. His usual morning routine was precise, and I admired how calm and collected he looked, even when I knew his day would be busy. “Good morning,” I murmured, leaning up on my elbows. He turned, smiling warmly, “Good morning, love. Sleep well?” I nodded, sliding closer to him, “You’re leaving early today.” “Lots to do before tonight,” he said with a wink. I couldn’t help but smile at the playful glint in his eyes. Recently, he had been waking up looking like he didn’t get much sleep the night before. But today, he looked like he rested well. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I kissed him passionately, savoring the
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 464 Let’s Go On A Date
(Thomas)The drive back to the mansion was quiet, the city lights a blur as they passed by the windows. My mind replayed the events of the day, the chaos with that one candidate, the interviews that went nowhere, and then Jack. That wound, the tension in his voice, the possibility of Marco being involved, it all left a sour taste in my mouth. But I pushed it aside for now. I didn’t want to bring that storm home with me.By the time I pulled into the driveway, the mansion was bathed in soft light, welcoming and warm. I exhaled deeply, the weight of the day slowly lifting as I reminded myself of what mattered most, my family.Inside, the familiar sounds of home greeted me. Miles and Mabel’s laughter echoed from the living room, where they were playing with a set of blocks. Lydia sat nearby, her eyes flicking between them and her phone. When she looked up and saw me, her face brightened in a way that made the tension in my chest ease instantly.“Daddy!” Miles and Mabel shouted in unison
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 463 No More Hiding Things
(Thomas)The hallways of the office were unusually quiet as I left the disaster of the last interview behind me. My steps echoed faintly as I made my way toward Jack’s office, needing a moment to vent about the absurdity of the day. Jack always had a way of grounding me, even when the world felt like it was spiraling out of control.But when I arrived at his office, it was empty. The blinds were drawn, the desk cleared except for a mug of cold coffee. I frowned, pulling out my phone to call him.He picked up after a few rings. His voice was low and somewhat strained when he spoke, “Thomas?”“Jack,” I said, glancing at my watch, “Where are you? I just came by your office.”“I’m at my apartment,” he replied, his tone clipped. “At your apartment?” I repeated, my frown deepening, “It’s the middle of the day, Jack. What’s going on?”There was a pause, long enough to make me suspicious. “I had to step out for a bit,” he finally said, “I’ll be back soon.”“Jack-”“Thomas, I’m fine,” he int
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 462 Risky Decisions
(Lydia)As we pulled into the driveway of the mansion, I couldn’t help but glance at Ruby in the passenger seat. Her face was calm, her usual cool composure firmly in place, but I could tell she was exhausted. Whatever had happened earlier was still playing in the back of my mind, but I didn’t press her further. Ruby had always been good at deflecting, and I knew better than to push when she wasn’t ready to share. The front door opened before we even reached it, and there stood Mama, smiling weakly but genuinely. She leaned on her cane, her movements slower since the surgery, but her spirit was intact. Ruby was by her side in a flash, steadying her and guiding her gently back into the living room. “Ruby, you didn’t have to come all the way here if the boutique was busy,” Mama said softly, though her eyes betrayed how much she appreciated the gesture. “I wanted to,” Ruby replied simply, her voice steady, “And you know me, I don’t trust anyone else to make sure you’re properly ta
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 461 Security
(Thomas)The office felt unusually stifling today, as if the walls were closing in on me. My desk was piled with documents, but my attention was split. Half of my mind churned through what would happen when I met Nathan again.I had not seen him face to face since the last time, the night I found Lydia after he had kidnapped her. My blood boiled just thinking about that moment. I would have made a rash decision if it wasn’t for Lydia’s hand in mind and the thought of our kids, their smiling faces flashing through my mind.They had already spent so much time without me, their dad, I wasn’t going to make a horrible decision by harming Nathan and landing myself behind bars.I was glad that I hadn’t acted out of emotion, but that was also due to the fact that Lydia was right in front of me, looking relatively unharmed. If he had done something to her…then I would have taken it into my hands.Apart from this, there was also the added stress of finding another personal assistant for myself.
After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets Chapter 460 Banged Knee or a Lie
(Lydia)By the time I reached Ruby’s apartment, I could hardly breathe. My legs burned from climbing the stairs two at a time, but I didn’t care. My mind was racing, filled with every worst-case scenario I could imagine. Ruby’s phone going unanswered and her not showing up at the mansion had sent my thoughts spiraling into dark territory.I pounded on her door, my fist landing hard against the wood.“Ruby? Open up! It’s me!”The hallway was eerily silent, my frantic knocks echoing off the walls. I pressed my ear to the door, hoping to catch even the faintest sound of movement inside.“Ruby, please! Are you okay?”The seconds stretched unbearably. Then, finally, I heard the muffled shuffle of footsteps. Relief surged through me, but it was fleeting.The door opened just a crack, and Ruby appeared, peeking through the gap. Her face was calm, but her eyes held a flicker of something…annoyance? Discomfort?“Lydia,” she said, her voice carefully even, “What are you doing here?”I pushed th
