Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 198
Nicole's POV"Ugh!" I held my aching head, feeling the prickles radiating from there until I had to close my eyes for a moment and squeeze my hair.Someone touched my shoulder, slightly distracting me from the pain. "Nicole, are you okay? You look like you're in pain."I didn't say anything for a while. I hadn't had a headache like this in a long time, so it surprised me. I wasn't sure what caused it, but I didn't want to make the man I was with feel worried when we met again after so many busy days."I'm fine." I tried to smile, looking at Matthew who seemed to be staring at me intently.He didn't seem to believe what I was saying, which was unconvincing when the pain was still engulfing me.The man frowned, still looking at me skeptically. "How about we do an examination for you, Nicole? You seem to be getting a lot of headaches these days. I'm worried about you."I kind of regretted telling him about my headache symptoms when we didn't see each other, but even without that, we also

Nicole's POV"Ah, the weather is so nice." I smiled, looking up at the open sky around the clear river as I tucked my hair out of the way of the wind.We had already climbed into one of the boats, and Matthew had just pushed our boat from the edge of the river until it began to sail with the gentle current in the center. I noticed the man's gaze watching me, so I turned my head and saw him nod, returning my smile.He looked up at the sky like I did before for a few moments, smiling brightly when he looked back at me. "Both the sky and the air are perfect for our date. I'm glad."The man started rowing, following the current until the boat we were on moved on and didn't stay in place for too long. I watched my lover sitting on the other side of the boat, holding both oars and moving slowly. I could see his muscles moving as he rowed the boat.I just knew that the shirt the man was wearing would affect me in this way.".... Nicole? Nicole?" I blinked, realizing that the bespectacled man

Nicole's POVMatthew drove me home after our date. His car had stopped in front of my house, but he hadn't unlocked the door yet, and I didn't really want to say goodbye to him. He smiled softly, coming closer to me, and I closed my eyes automatically.He kissed my cheek for a moment. "Bye, Nicole.""See you soon." I returned his smile and finally stepped out of the car, holding back my excitement when he did something sweet and surprising to me.I was just about to digest and consider kissing her back when I realized that something had been watching me all along. I turned my head and immediately froze. My gaze found Richard there, near the inner garden of the house and not far from my position, still holding the car door.He just stayed there without saying anything. I could see him staring at my lover in the car, then at me, who could do nothing but stand still. My eyes were fluttering, trying to think of something to do about it, but nothing came to mind."What's wrong, Nicole?" I
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 201
Nicole's POVMy sweet boy's request... I smiled softly, enjoying the tranquil atmosphere in a place rarely visited by many people on a typical day. It was just me, Richard, and Key here, while the rest was nature, with a meadow with some trees and a lake not far from us.I know that my son has a soft heart. He doesn't often show it to others overtly but always surprises me with his actions. Like this time. I had guessed that he would ask me to take him to a robot exhibition, but it turned out that he asked for something more straightforward. A picnic by the lake.Richard was a few steps away from me, teaching his robot dog to do various things with his voice and a few hand gestures, while I sat on the mat prepared by our assistant, watching my excited son."Doggy, fetch!" He exclaimed, throwing a wooden branch found among the grass.The robot dog barked with static and ran fast enough to pick up the branch and return it to my son. He did this a few times, then switched to teaching the

Nicole's POVThe opening day of the resort built by the Thompson Family arrived. As he had said a few days ago, I intended to come with Matthew to pick me up from home. He had given me the news from last night so that I could prepare the few things I needed."Are you ready?" The bespectacled man asked me who had just inhaled and exhaled deeply.We had just arrived at the center of the event, the parking lot downstairs. With so many cars around us, I had no idea how many people were present.I felt nervous and shook my head automatically, looking at him with slightly trembling eyes. "I'm not ready, Matthew," I admitted.He chuckled, taking my hand in his to calm me down. "Feeling a little nervous is okay. There's still me, right?"I nodded. I knew that, too, but still, today was quite important for us. Besides the opening ceremony, there was one other thing that would be done at this party, which involved the continuation of our family relationship. I wanted to feel more relaxed and co
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 203
Nicole's POVAfter we finished the hot and excellent activity, I still felt the residual heat in my body. Although the man claimed that today was his first time doing this with me, I thought that he was the type of person who learned too quickly by practising directly.My face was slightly flushed as I recalled each of his hot touches on my body and the moment of our union. I quickly breathed in and out a few times to calm myself down, trying to eliminate that thought with my goal after this."Where are you going, Nicole?" the heavy voice of the man with glasses rang out.I didn't answer right away, still searching for my underwear and dress scattered on the room floor with the pile of clothes. "I want to go back.""Back?" He repeated my words with confusion.I didn't think much of it, entirely focused on not letting my mind wander again. I quickly put on all the clothes I found to cover my body, then turned to the mirror to tidy up my makeup and hair, which looked quite messy after o

Chris' POVI gripped my phone tightly, swiping the screen slowly as I finished reading the news paragraph. I then pressed the video link at the article's bottom, taking my phone screen to another app.The video rotated. I skipped past the part about the opening of another family business that I didn't want to know about and went straight to the beautiful Nicole and the jerk next to her. It stated that they were now officially engaged."What the hell?" I took a shaky breath, unable to believe the information I had accidentally found. "This can't be serious."I pressed the button on my phone screen to redirect me back to the article. The names of the Duncan and Thompson Families were listed there, as was the name of the ignorant man at the centre of this article. I saw Nicole's name tucked in there, as well as the word fiancé," which was a blur to my eyes.Most of the comments congratulated the couple I didn't want to recognise. I couldn't read all the comments, which felt like they wer
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 205
Chris' POVI woke up with a sore head and a stiff neck. The shouting could still be heard, but I didn't want to open my eyes."Chris! What happened to you, my son?" The annoying voice came closer and finally opened my bedroom door. The sound of sobbing could also be heard as she continued to speak more softly. "Why have you become like this?"I didn't want to, but I opened my eyes reluctantly. After all, I already knew that the person babbling at me from earlier was my mother, as no one else would visit my house without any notice like she often did.The ageing woman tried to grab my hand with teary eyes, but I quickly brushed her hand away. I didn't want anyone to touch me carelessly, including my own mother. A sudden feeling of annoyance welled inside me when I saw the woman before me.Although my head still felt dizzy and the influence of alcohol was still in my bloodstream, I remembered that my mother was one of the people who had tortured Nicole a few years ago. She hated the wom
