Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 200
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

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

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

Nicole's POVI exhaled, looking at the warm coffee between my hands and its thin puff of smoke. I felt much more alive after coming out of my room.After the engagement ceremony, the next day, I quickly returned to reality, to my unfinished work and some new project offers that would benefit the company greatly, but now also felt like a double-edged sword.On the one hand I was happy, while on the other hand I felt physically tired more easily. Matthew, the man who used to be my lover, but is now my fiancé is also busy with his work so we haven't been able to meet. I missed him, but knew that he might not have time with me for a while.When someone approached me, I had just taken a sip of my coffee, tasting the right mix of thick and sweet and the warmth that washed down my throat. I set down my coffee cup with little sound.The man smiled. "I found you again, Nicole."My eyes widened in disbelief as I stared at the figure before me. I didn't expect to see an old man wearing a dull-lo
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 207
Nicole's POVI tried to control myself, but the unbearable pain in my head made me fall off the chair and hit the floor of the cafe veranda hard. I didn't feel much pain from it with my headache, but my vision seemed blurry.I stared at my vaguely shaped hand, then lifted my gaze towards the noise that was still nearby. I vaguely saw Smith dealing with another figure, pointing and opening his mouth several times.I couldn't hear what they were saying because their voices were mixed. What was clear was that the figure seemed to push the old man until he almost fell down, but the stubborn man was still able to maintain his balance and shouted back at the figure, who was still unknown."Ugh!" I groaned softly, feeling the headache I was currently feeling increase with time until I looked down again, holding on to the table leg tightly to endure the pain.Someone out of nowhere lifted me up in his arms after grabbing me from underneath, holding me in a safe position. I blinked, trying to
