Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 164
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

Nicole's POVI brushed my hair back, trying to quell the feelings in my chest, but I couldn't hold it in anymore. He's the one who always acts as he pleases, but why do I feel like I have to give in every time? I don't want to have to act like that anymore.I looked at him sharply. "Stop it, Chris. I don't want to hear your nonsense anymore, and I don't want to see your annoying presence around me.""Annoying?" The man repeated my words as a question, making me stare at him even more sharply, but he just snorted softly and shook his head for a moment. "Alright, today I'll just get here. I originally came just to see how you were doing, Nicole...."He explained that his coming was never meant to be bad, but I always put him in the wrong position with my actions when it was just the two of us like this. The man quickly brought up my previous words and claimed that I was the one who made him become like this.I didn't take my eyes off him when I heard his twisted statement. Even now, he

Matthew's POVI remember the first time I met Nicole again. I was immediately attracted to her. She was beautiful in one look, and her aura did not seem weak. She was a strong existence that I immediately noticed among the many people I had met.The woman's eyes didn't seem to hesitate as she looked at me, whom she didn't seem to recognize right away. Although her voice sounded a bit cautious, she seemed to respond in the same way that I did: friendly but not immediately familiar and providing enough boundaries.Although I did cross the line a bit by giving her a hint about our next meeting and touching hands and cheeks with her a few times because I couldn't help myself."Richard...." I muttered the name of that beautiful woman's son I had recently learned.He's a boy who looks much like his mother but is also slightly different. I knew he had the distinction of having a calm demeanor like an adult, but he could also have fun or behave like a child with his mother.With just one look

Matthew's POVI was eating with my father at the dining table in our house. I glanced at my father several times while we were eating, waiting for him to say something until he finally looked at me."What's wrong, Matthew? You seem to have something to talk to me about." He said.I put down the cutlery I was using before looking at him again. "It's not me, it's Dad. That time, you said that there was something you wanted to talk to me about, but you had other things to do."I only remembered discussing Nicole when he suddenly excused himself, and I went somewhere else. I was pretty excited about the engagement being discussed between Nicole and me. Still, my father said that there were things that I should know before the engagement procession was fully executed.Of course, I wanted to know, but some things had happened, so the conversation could only continue now.My father looked at me with slightly widened eyes, realizing the conversation I was having. "Oh, you remember our convers

Matthew's POVToday was the day Nicole would be discharged from her hospitalization. I was on my way to the hospital feeling rather uncomfortable, remembering the time when I thought that Nicole was Natalie when talking to her about my childhood memories.I remembered how that woman's expression made me a little sad. I thought she was just unable to remember a memorable event for me, but it turned out that it could be her other past that she didn't want to talk about anymore.The only thing I can be sure of is that my feelings for her are true. Childhood was important, but our accidental meeting at the cafe and what followed made me fall for that woman even more."It's here," I muttered softly, exhaling after I had finished parking my car.I looked at the bouquet of flowers I had leaned against the passenger seat, noticing the soft-colored arrangement the florist had suggested before I came here. I had intended to give this bouquet to Nicole to congratulate her on her return, but then
