Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 217
Edwin's POVI felt completely screwed. Smith wasn't Nicole's father, so the treatment that the young woman should have been able to go through soon had to be delayed, while I had absolutely no information about my daughter's real family.Now I was facing the man who had caused this problem. The man stood with both hands held back by each of the bodyguards who came with me.The ignorant man clucked. "Why are you doing something like this? Didn't I follow the procedure you wanted?""You are an imposter." I gritted my teeth, looking at him, who seemed frowning.He didn't seem to understand what I was talking about. "Impostor? I don't have such luxurious opportunities. Don't you know everything about me, Mr. Duncan?"I clenched my fists, looking at the man who was still trying to be evasive even though the facts about him had been obtained from the tests he had undergone. There was no way he didn't know about their blood relationship since the man he had given the information to had admit

Edwin's POVAt home, I met Richard, who stood up to greet me. He only smiled faintly and called out to me in a voice that wasn't as excited as usual, even tending to be weak to make me a little worried. "Grandpa, you're home.""Yes, Richard." I returned my grandson's smile and hugged him.He felt tiny at the moment, with his hands holding my coat back tightly for a few moments. It had been a few days since we had eaten together, and the boy had gone to bed several times before I arrived home.I realized the effect of not having Mom by his side was worse than I thought, so I hugged him tighter, trying to give him what little peace he could take from me.It was Richard who loosened our embrace first. I saw his slightly contorted face and teary eyes as we stared at each other, leaving me speechless and only able to stare at him."Grandpa.... Actually, I want to meet Mom...." The child said in a low voice. "But I'm scared, Grandpa. If I meet Mom later, I might cry and make her worry about

Nicole's POVI sighed, looking at the two men standing before my bed and staring intently at each other. They hadn't been at my place long, but already looked like they would make a scene in my room.There would be no stopping them with my room not being in a public ward and only us being here. My father had difficulty going to work, while Key had to take my place with Richard.I already knew that it would be like this when they met, but I couldn't do anything to stop them other than sighing again."You'd better get out of here, Mr. Grant. You're interrupting my time and my fiancée's." Matthew said first.The green-brown-eyed man didn't look affected and gave the man who was my fiancé a flat look. "No, I'm not. Don't you already know what happened between us? You are the one who should leave here.""I am Nicole's fiancé. Are you not listening to what I am saying?" My fiancé asked in a tone that sounded emotional. "You shouldn't kick me out with your nobody status."Chris shrugged his

Nicole's POVAfter they left, another person came to my hospital room. Looking at the figure I missed, I could feel my smile slowly brighten, and my mood brightened.My son walked in with Key, walking after him and holding a small robot in his palm. The robot was quite eye-catching as it looked similar to a miniature human.He smiled as he showed me the robot closer. "Look, Mom. Doesn't this robot look so cute?""Yes." I nodded as I watched the robot more closely, feeling curious. "How did you make it?"I deliberately asked that because I was genuinely interested, and after seeing my son's expression, who seemed to have refrained from saying anything right away, I realized that if I didn't look interested, I didn't look interested. He was adorable, but I refrained from ruffling his hair.The boy's eyes seemed to sparkle, though his voice still sounded quieter as he began to explain. "It's easy, ma'am. I just need to do it like I made the insect robot, but a little more complicated."H

Nicole's POVI took my mother's hand, entering the biggest house I saw besides ours. Many people were there, dressed in the same fancy clothes my mom and I wore. Many friends my age gathered first in one of the open sections of the party room, which was also filled with several other adults."Do you want to play with them?" my mom asked, to which I immediately replied with a nod. "Alright, don't play too far. You remember where you're going.""Okay, Mom!"I quickly joined the other children. A girl took my hand, and we walked together, following the other children who were planning to play hide-and-seek. One of us stood guard when we arrived at a less crowded part of the house while the rest, including me, scattered to find the best hiding place.I didn't look where I was going and thought I couldn't lose. My footsteps led to a place filled with paintings no longer on display and other dull-looking items. I stifled a cough as I entered the room but used my handkerchief to breathe bett

Nicole's POVChris left. I should feel happy or at least relieved about it, but for some reason, I feel guilty.Maybe it was because he and I both knew that I wasn't being sincere. I didn't want to admit it, but we'd been on several dates, and I'd ordered spaghetti bolognese on three of our five dates, so he knew it all too well.I sighed, trying to control myself from this useless feeling that would only harm me. Suddenly, someone stroked my hair gently, snapping me out of my daydream about a man who could usually only think about himself. I turned my head, looking at Matthew, who was smiling gently."Take it easy. Everything will be fine, Nicole."I nodded, agreeing with his words and wishing for the same. I just wanted to get well soon so I could get back to work, see Richard, and spend time with my son in places far better than the hospital garden or this already dull hospital room.The bespectacled man stared at the closed door with a sharp gaze. "That man really doesn't know him

Nicole's POVI didn't know what was happening until my father suddenly came over and hugged me tightly. I felt my stiff hands on both sides of his body, not knowing what to do for a few moments before finally patting his back a few times."Nicole...." he called my name for the umpteenth time even though he had been hugging me since before. "Nicole, Nicole. Oh my... Nicole..."The man's shoulders, which usually looked well-built, trembled on top of mine, as did the moisture I could suddenly feel there. I realized he was also crying, although I still didn't know why.I became a little worried, trying to calm this father, who was still in my arms. "Dad, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly crying? Calm down, Father. I don't know anything if you don't say anything.""How can I calm down, Nicole, my child?" He was trying to get the words out in his trembling voice. "God, I still can't believe this."I still didn't understand what the man before me was saying, which was more like mumbling to

Nicole's POVAfter a while, my father said goodbye to take care of a few things while finding out about the information he had told me. He ignored the other figure who had been with us since earlier, but I couldn't do the same.When the door to the room closed, I looked at Chris, who was still silent, and finally said to him. "Why are you still there? Don't you realize that your presence here is completely unwanted?""I know, but I can't leave you."He looked at me intently, then walked over to me. I stared back at him, trying to keep myself brave and not back down in front of him, ignoring the fact that we almost did something I didn't want to happen before my father entered this room.The man stopped walking and paused right next to my bed, between which was the IV pole I was using.He seemed to smile slightly as he looked at me more closely. "I am glad that you have found your real father, Nicole. Mr. Edwin will be a good father to you.""What are you saying?" I frowned, staring at

Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 407
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
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 406
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
