Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 160
Nicole's POVChris fell silent after I stopped his words while I said back to the man. "You'd better get out.""But-" He was forced to stop when I gave him a sharp look.I cut him off again, not giving him pause to force me to listen. "I want to rest, not listen to out-of-place ramblings."Matthew seemed pleased with my words, smiling slightly and showing it to the man on the other side of my bed. "You heard, right? Nicole asked you out because you were the one talking too much."I exhaled, not expecting to see such a childish attitude from the man with glasses who always cared about me. I felt terrible for him but was also unhappy when I saw him doing the same thing as the stubborn man I had reprimanded."I'm saying this for you too, Matthew." I looked at him, wanting him to understand. "I just want to be with my son and rest. You guys should be able to understand this."The bespectacled man looked disappointed, but without saying anything, he also walked out with the other man. The

Chris' POVEven though I was kicked out by Nicole or whoever was still around that woman's room, I didn't give up and wanted to see her again. No one could stop me when I still had that desire, so I stayed in the hospital.I only moved away from the floor where she was being treated, but not too far so I could still rush to her place when the opportunity came to me and then wait for a while.The hospital already looked crowded after the night had passed. I watched a few people without much thought and then moved along when I saw the clock showing it was still morning. My destination was obviously that woman's room.I took a step, then stopped when I saw someone walking in the other direction from where I was heading. "Richard?" I muttered under my breath, watching the little boy walk into another hallway outside the hospital building area.The boy was walking alone, and I didn't even see Nicole's assistant, who usually stuck around when he wasn't around. He attracted so much attention

Chris' POVI didn't immediately follow Richard, who had stepped away first. I was still thinking about what he had said about the bespectacled man I had seen recently, but I had seized the thing I wanted most after finding out that I had a child.As the child had said, I didn't immediately believe the man had a good attitude. In fact, from a subjective assessment, I felt that the man was suspicious for capturing the hearts of my son and that woman so quickly, even if it was just with simple actions that I could also do well.I exhaled softly, following the boy who had already boarded the elevator. At the same time, I waited for the next elevator and immediately stepped into the room where Nicole was being treated after arriving.I peeked over the side of the glass door, seeing the little boy approach his mother and hand her the chocolate milkshake he had brought. Nicole smiled and kissed the boy's cheek in thanks while I stepped inside without waiting any longer."Thank you, Richard.

Nicole's POVRichard walked next to me in the wheelchair while the two men, who had been arguing, walked behind us. Matthew managed to earn the right to push me during our walk, so Chris kept quiet and didn't act as familiar as usual.I actually also felt confused by my final decision to have the two of them follow me and my son around the hospital, especially with that ignorant man who wouldn't listen to me.I knew from Key that he stubbornly stayed in the hospital waiting room and came straight to my room as soon as the visiting time happened. Maybe it was out of pity, or I just didn't know how to get rid of him, so he was still here, not like Matthew said.My son touched my hand lightly, looking up at me. "Are you okay, Mom?""Mom is fine." I nodded, looking back at my son, who lowered his head and brought his head closer to me.He whispered, seemingly trying to hide a plan I didn't know about. "Do you need some time with Uncle Matthew? I'll distract the other man."I heard someone

Chris' POVI was surprised by what the bespectacled man said to Nicole about wanting to make her his wife. My heartbeat stopped for a moment, and my steps stopped not too far from them.I still loved that woman and had already decided to be with her again, as well as the little boy in my arms, but the man who had just appeared dared to get ahead of me."Nicole cannot be your wife," I was just about to say when a small hand covered my mouth, stopping the words I was about to say to the two people who were already staring at us. I averted my gaze.Richard was already looking at me first with a furrowed brow. "You don't deserve to say that, sir. You have repeatedly destroyed my mother, but you will do the same to her again if I don't stop you."I paused, looking at a child determined to protect his mother. Although I disagreed with his words about my actions, I appreciated his actions as a child cared for by his mother all this time, even when I had never done the same.I touched the boy

Chris' POVI watched as the man held Nicole in his arms, helping her to lie back down on the hospital bed that was slightly higher than the wheelchair."Take it easy, Nicole." The man spoke, slowly lowering the woman onto the bed.The woman lowered her hand onto the bed, trying to place herself carefully while her other hand was still hugging the neck of the man with glasses, making me feel jealous for not being able to do the same for her.I watched as the woman finally lay down, disentangling herself from the man with a relieved smile, as did the man. "Thank you." I could hear the woman speaking.The man's hand seemed to move closer to Nicole's face. He used the back of his hand to wipe away the flowing sweat and quickly switched to tucking the woman's hair behind her ear. He smiled happily."No problem."I clenched my fists, knowing she was comfortable with the seemingly natural touch, as they had probably done it several times before I saw her in person.The man ended his help by

Nicole's POVI had a relaxing time at the hospital. Richard would come to me during every visit, spending time with me and keeping me company while I was still undergoing treatment, just like today.We were playing chess together. He was already executing various tactics while I was painstakingly defending my King's position from being eaten for the umpteenth time, either by the Queen, the Minister, or even my son's Fortress.I exhaled, watching my son's Minister, who was already directing checkmate. My only chess pieces were a few pawns, and one horse almost threatened with death, so I was already completely cornered."How is this? Mom seems to be losing again against you." I said, advancing a pawn for what defence I could.My son smiled. "Mom, don't despair yet. I only have ministers, queens and kings...."I shook my head a few times, not knowing whether to feel sad or happy that my son was still trying to cheer me up. There were more chess pieces on my side, but my movement was sti

Nicole's POVSelena looked at me, unaware of what she had just heard from Chris. "Is that true, Miss Nicole?"I nodded. "It's true."I closed my eyes momentarily as she looked at me and the man in turn. I tried to avoid everything related to the man still standing without knowing what he had done, but with just what the man said just now, my wish could not happen.The middle-aged woman closed her mouth, admiring Chris. "Wow, you're perfect. If that is the case, then you are like a hero to Miss Nicole."I still didn't say anything after that, just listened to how the woman sitting next to me couldn't stop praising Chris's not-quite-righteous deeds, while the man seemed unremarkable.Although it was confirmed that he was the one who saved me, I also knew that his arrival at that time was utterly coincidental. He, who had no idea what his purpose was in coming to see me, ended up seeing me as an insane man who was kidnapped.I was grateful for what that man had done, overcoming the worst

Edwin's POVI didn't realize that loving someone would make me feel things I didn't know. Although my first encounter with Catherine was not good, it still left a deep impression on me.She was just an innocent woman who knew little about the world around her, even worse than me, who had always received a private education before deciding to attend a public university.However, the more I got to know her and talked to her, the more I found out that she wasn't just a spoiled child from a rich family. She had her own difficulties and realized that she couldn't just stand by and accept the injustices that were always said in favor of her family.We also became friends in the end, but something went wrong.I didn't have a problem with it at all. In fact, I liked it a lot. That woman had a lot of eyes around her, who noticed her and were obviously interested in her from a mild level to infatuation, just like her best friend.Although I didn't really understand the concept of love or anythi

Benny's POVI was very surprised to hear that Catherine would marry Edwin. Her father had rejected the proposal letter sent by my father a while ago, so I called her immediately."Yes, I'm going to marry Edwin, Benny." She answered without hiding anything else.I was silent for a long time, unable to believe what I was hearing even though Catherine had admitted it herself. She didn't seem to realize what I was feeling until she started telling me what had happened.My frown deepened as she told me, unable to contain my shock about what had happened to her. The fact that the woman I liked was pregnant with a man who had been hanging out with us for the past few days, making friends as usual.The man didn't show that their relationship had changed, but the truth was more than I could have imagined. The threat that I felt from Edwin finally came true. He usurped my position to be the only man who could be by her side.In the end, the relationship I tried so hard to build with Catherine m
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 405
Catherine's POV"Wow, you really made my parents speechless, Edwin."I praised him, feeling a little amazed by the man who could make me look at my father, who could only be silent without being able to do anything. My mother also looked very surprised and watched the man stunned, but still, my father's reaction was the best thing I had ever seen.No one had ever rivaled him, not even Daniel. My father only relented or made compromises regarding my brother, unlike when dealing with Edwin, who seemed to have slapped him to reality.We were already outside my house. I had deliberately escorted him to the residence fence because I didn't want to be with my parents and still wanted to chat with the man who had caused such a stir inside our house.The man snorted softly. "I know someone like your father. He wouldn't dare to contradict someone like me."I nodded, remembering my father's face, which could only harden, but I could not say anything. After all, Edwin's family was far more impor
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 404
Catherine's POV"I am happy for your relationship, Catherine and Young Master Duncan, " my father said with a disgusting smile. I had no idea that we would become a family so soon."He laughed to himself while I felt increasingly uncomfortable with the old man's increasingly blatant attitude. My father did not hide his pleasure at all with what Edwin and I had said today after my examination at the hospital.My gaze fell on the man sitting next to me. He still looked calm, giving me a quick glance as he reached out to take one of my hands. This made me feel less alone among my greedy family members.My father still maintained a smile, looking at Edwin and me in turn. "The relationship between you two should be kept a secret immediately so as not to cause any inconvenience to Young Master, don't you think?" He looked at the man and then at me with a faint smile."You are very clever, Catherine." His gaze pierced me. "You've managed to find a wonderful future husband for our family."I
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 403
Catherine's POVI was shocked by the man's words and looked at him. I liked him, but I wasn't sure about his feelings for me after finding out I was pregnant. After all, his sweet treatment back then and our current situation are different things.I swallowed my saliva and nodded. "Yes, Duncan. This baby is your son."I shifted my gaze in another direction. The man was probably angry. We had done it that time with the same desire, sharing the warmth of an intimate activity I had never experienced before. Still, it would be to my detriment if he was like any other man.He might turn out to be selfish and not care about me anymore after sleeping with me. I've heard several times from my friends that when a woman gets pregnant during a one-night stand, she has only two options. Keep the baby with no one or abort it and experience pain for who knows how long.Neither is good, and I don't want to go through it alone.One thing's for sure: in most of the stories I've heard, the man who spen
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 402
Catherine's POVWe arrived at a nice hospital, but I felt uneasy. I didn't feel dizzy anymore and was able to walk well, but Edwin was still holding me as if he was afraid I would falter again like before we arrived at this place.I looked at the man walking next to me. "I don't need treatment, Duncan. I'm already fine.""You can't." He shook his head without looking at me. "The doctor should at least check on your sudden limp while walking. He can prescribe medicine for you later."I exhaled, feeling his hand around my shoulder getting tighter, as well as his other hand clasping mine. I felt like I was getting too much attention to the point of feeling uncomfortable, but I was still grateful that he seemed genuinely worried about me."Alright.... I'll do it." I finally said.He nodded.This was my first time in a public hospital so being here felt quite strange. There were a lot of people and most of the people waiting around us were some women who looked pregnant or with their part
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 401
Catherine's POVMy life became more enjoyable after opening up to my two friends again. We often hung out together, spending time like the days before and sometimes joined Benny's friends who were quite friendly.After the closeness between the two men, people assumed that Edwin and Benny were inseparable friends. They often walked together, joined the same activities and organizations and were both in the spotlight among other students.It was a natural thing. Not only were their attitudes and personalities polar opposites, but the two men both came from prominent families and owned businesses that they would continue as the only sons of their respective families.They also had brilliant achievements in their respective majors, as well as good looks that were loved by many female students around campus, be it seniors or juniors."I like Edwin Duncan, he's very cold and handsome...." A woman said with a soft sigh.Her friend had a different response. "I prefer Benny Thompson. He's fri
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 400
Catherine's POVI entered the lecture again but avoided Edwin and Benny, who were trying hard to get close to me. Both men seemed equally stubborn in saying hello and being nice to me, even though I was always cold to them.They invite me to lunch, but I walk past them, accompanying them to read or study in the library. Then I moved further away and only had one seat, and then I just walked alone to my class.I actually don't mind being alone for now. There were too many thoughts swirling in my head, and my father warned me not to do anything wrong if I still wanted to go to college. A few days ago, my words made me a rebellious child, not something that did me justice.I regretted it a little, but I also couldn't deny that I had managed to say most of the things I had wanted to say a long time ago. Even if they didn't care at all, the important thing was that I didn't just keep those words bottled up inside me."This is tiring," I complained in a low voice.Sarah sighed next to me. "
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 399
Catherine's POVAfter hearing my words, I could see my father's gaze become sharper. I felt a little scared, but then I emboldened myself by returning his gaze more boldly.He frowned, still looking at me with his sharp gaze. "What do you mean?""I don't want to get married, Father," I said the meaning of my words more clearly, trying not to tremble in front of him. "Do you think I live only to get married for the sake of this family? If it's not with the man of Father's choice, I'll still be passed on to another man who doesn't fully match my wishes. I don't want to."There are still many things I can do even without getting married. I wanted to determine my life, like the women who weren't bound by the Varma family's nonsensical rules.They could do whatever they wanted, have fun, study, or whatever they wanted for their own future, without worrying about finding a husband who would be helpful to their family.Even if I don't get married, it doesn't mean I can't continue my life wel
