Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 218
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
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 222
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
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 223
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
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 224
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 225
Nicole's POVFor the past two days, I have not wanted to see Chris at all. My father had prepared several bodyguards to guard me while I was alone, standing guard at the door of my hospital room so that the man I didn't want to see wouldn't have a chance to break in.That had already happened this morning, where a bodyguard did his best to hold back the breakthrough of the man who was also very stubborn. It took some time for the man to be wholly driven away and not make any more noise in front of my room, but I also knew that it hadn't made him give up just yet.I clenched my fists tightly, remembering what he said the last time we met. His gaze was fixed on me then, and his furrowed brow told me that his words needed to be considered."I care about the little boy, Nicole. He is my son, and I know that he is not someone who should be involved in this revenge business that you want to take on me. The child is still small."I fell silent, feeling the man's words as if he was both stabb
