This was my first time being so stubborn and assertive in front of Ryan, demanding something so forcefully.

He looked somewhat surprised, his gaze shifting to my side, and what he said next was even colder. "Whether you can wait or not, you have no choice!"

"Fine." I nodded lightly and continued calmly, "Then I will let everyone know that the Frost family is rotten to the core, so rotten that even a mistress can step on the head of the legitimate wife! Let's see how you justify this to your recently departed grandfather!"

At the mention of his grandfather, he suddenly froze.

Seemingly realizing belatedly, what his grandfather detested most was his unclear relationship with Jessica!

It wasn't clear whether he was thinking of his grandfather or worrying about Jessica's reputation.

Finally, Ryan swallowed hard, suppressed his emotions, glanced at Jessica, and said coldly, "Your friend will stay in a regular ward, that's settled!"

Jessica still resisted, "Ryan..."

Ryan cut her off

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 115

    After finally getting a weekend off from work, the first thing I did after finishing my part-time job was to mop the floor and do the laundry, just to see a smile on his face.If it weren't for Aunt Laura insisting, I would have been kicked out by him and his son long ago.If we talked about repaying kindness, I could honestly say that I didn't owe the Lynch family anything anymore.Now, it's just that I can't let go of Aunt.And now, he actually had the nerve to tell me that it's thanks to their Lin family that I can marry Ryan.I looked at Bradley and smirked, "You studied design because of me?"Bradley said, "Yeah, it's because of you. Your gifts on holidays were so expensive, and you always provided for the family, making me think that the design industry earns a lot. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen this crappy major.""Which university did you graduate from?""Jelaston College."It was short for Jelaston Vocational and Technical College.Seeing his familiar face resemb

    It was Ryan!Jack's dark eyes met his directly, one gentle as water, the other cold and stern.Instantly, I felt a tense atmosphere, as if they were not childhood friends but two people standing completely opposed to each other.Upon careful recollection, I realized that since Jack returned from abroad, both he and Ryan seemed different from their days on campus.Ryan misunderstood my relationship with Jack, but what about Jack? What was his reason?However, this was their business after all, and I shouldn't pry too deeply.Ryan strode over with his long legs, exuding a strong sense of oppression. He glanced at the coat draped over me with mockery. "So intimate.""Not as much as you guys," I replied coldly without thinking.Since yesterday's incident, every word he said and everything he did seemed to drain away the little remaining affection between us.In my mind, countless times I thought, if he had pulled me away at that moment, perhaps I wouldn't have lost the child. But

    "Sorry, I found out by accident too," he apologized gently, then explained the reason. It all started when Jane posted on Twitter about my hospitalization due to a car accident. He asked for the ward number, planning to visit me today. However, when he arrived at the hospital today, he overheard the nurses chatting about me. Not only was I injured all over, but I also had a miscarriage and unbelievably got discharged the same day.I pursed my lips slightly. "So you fought with him...""We were both upset," Jack said casually. He glossed over it lightly, then looked at me with gentle eyes. "And you, how have you been these days?""It's hard to say." I lowered my eyes. "When I used to love him, I looked forward to a happy marriage. Later, when I got pregnant, I hoped every day for the child to come into this world, to become my concern, my only family. But now..."I smiled bitterly. "I don't even know what else is worth remembering."Everything became meaningless. I placed my right

    "Okay, I get you!"Tears welled up in my eyes. As I turned my head, I saw a bright star in the sky. It was as if I had suddenly pulled myself out from an emotion that could have completely shattered me at any moment.Jack handed me a tissue from the car. "Go ahead and cry. You can cry today but don't cry anymore after today. Crying too much at times like this hurts your eyes."He didn't let me stay on the mountain for too long and drove me back to the city.After hesitating for a moment, I cautiously asked, "Jack, the girl you've liked for so many years must be a really good girl, right?""Yeah."He nodded without hesitation, his eyes and brows softening. "She's the same girl I mentioned to you just now."I couldn't help but be surprised. "But... that's many years ago.""Yeah, twenty years," he blurted out.Clearly, it was a sincere and deep-rooted affection.I sighed and didn't say anything more. When we arrived downstairs at Jane's house, I softly thanked him, "Thank you fo

    I knew he wasn't joking.And I didn't want him to come up and disturb Jane, so I compromised. "Okay."Before going downstairs, Jane and Jack's actions were identical, wrapping me in an extended down jacket and pulling a hat over my head."Don't think I'm exaggerating." Jane poked my head. "It says online that it's windy now, and it's easy to get headaches in the future.""Alright, alright, you're the best."She meant well for me. After agreeing repeatedly, I casually changed into another pair of shoes and went downstairs.Seeing me coming out of the unit building, Ryan's eyes darkened. "Why are you wearing so much? Are you sick?""You care about me?"I found that I had lost the ability to talk to him properly.If he really cared about me, even if he didn't know I was pregnant, he should have asked yesterday how I was after being injured.Regardless of the severity, I had been hit by a car.Ryan frowned. "Why are you speaking in such a cryptic manner?"Not wanting to get int

    I almost blurted out the words, but managed to hold back.There was no point in saying it.I smirked. "You really are selfless. Can I ask you to do another good deed next month?""Go ahead."I said calmly, "Come with me to get the divorce certificate."The restraint that held me tightened suddenly. I could feel the man's fingers tremble faintly, followed by a silent standoff.After a while, the elevator doors suddenly opened, and a loving couple walked out.Ryan seemed momentarily distracted. Seizing the opportunity, I pulled my wrist free and stepped into the elevator.I pressed the close button. As the elevator doors slowly shut, I unexpectedly felt a long-lost sense of relief.Separation was the best choice.It can only be separation.That night, whether it was because things were finally resolved or because I was exhausted, I slept until after nine the next day.Jane didn't wake me up even when she left for work.She made some sandwiches for me for breakfast.I ate tw

    But he turned out to be my uncle!He could use this relationship to talk nonsense in front of Ryan!"Sis, speaking like this really hurts people's feelings." Bradley threw the snacks in his hand away and said, "I know. Isn't it just that your husband cheated on you? I just saw it earlier. That woman looks much worse than you, with a face like an internet celebrity. You let your husband play with her for a while, and when he gets tired of her, he'll come back to the family."In the eyes of these men without moral limits, it seemed particularly light and fluttering.I forced myself to remain calm. "I'm telling you, this matter doesn't need your meddling, understand?""Understood." Bob, as described online, was a typical example of a bad guy growing old. He grinned with his yellow teeth stained from smoking, boldly declaring, "If you don't want me to find Mr. Frost, that's fine. If you can give me 6,000 dollars a month in the future, and settle Bradley's job properly, I won't interfe

    The man wore a dark-colored high-end western suit, his face solemn, his expression cold and indifferent, yet exuding a strong sense of oppression, a born aura of dominance.I was slightly stunned.Bob immediately changed his tune, no longer the arrogant and domineering figure from earlier. He rubbed his hands together, put on a smile, and approached Ryan, nodding and bowing, "Mr. Frost, why have you come? I was teaching this little brat a lesson."My sense of pride seemed to be trampled under Bob's feet. Even though I had already reached the point of divorce, I didn't want Ryan to see me in such a poor state or such an embarrassing relative."You can leave, this has nothing to do with you."I pushed Ryan towards the exit.I didn't want my uncle to meddle in our affairs, and similarly, I didn't want him involved in this mess."Are you scared?"Bob blocked the doorway in a stride, raising his voice. "Are you afraid my nephew-in-law will know how ungrateful you are?"I was render

    Charlotte patted her head. "First, make a video call to that little girl." Jane quickly found her phone and opened the landlord's WhatsApp. As soon as the call connected, the little girl appeared on screen, her eyes red. Tears were still visible on her face. The landlord was sitting next to her, waiting, not having gone to sleep. Jane apologized, "Sorry to disturb your rest." "Don't say that." The landlord gently patted her daughter's head. "I'm just happy you're alright." Jane smiled at the little girl. "Thanks to Celine, I'm fine." The little girl leaned closer to the screen. "Jane, you're lying. Your lips are swollen." Jane cleared her throat. "I ate something spicy earlier." She quickly added to prevent the little girl from saying anything else, "Alright, go to sleep now. We'll talk more when you get out of school. Jane went through a lot today, and she's tired too." The little girl, very understanding, handed the phone to her mother and went to bed

    The captain laughed. "Don't think that just because we're from abroad, we don't understand anything.""Young lady, if you want to buy some time, then I'll play along with you. But if you're hoping for someone to rescue you, I advise you to give up on that thought. This is the border. Domestic ships can't get through here."Well, you don't know Frank.There's no one who can stop him from going where he wants to go.Jane tried her best to suppress her fear. "Sir, I have all kinds of tricks. If I can make you guys happy, can you spare my life?"She reached out, grabbed the captain's belt, and moved closer."As long as you don't kill me, you'll be my savior. I'll be yours from now on and let you have your fun with me. Is that okay?"Although Jane hadn't dressed herself up recently.But her facial features were stunning. Those fox-like eyes with a smile in them were even more alluring.The captain kept swallowing saliva. Apparently, he was attracted.However, they had already rece

    They were anxious, not just because of the situation, but because they feared Zachary would go mad and go abroad with Jane. Frank glanced at their expressions and immediately understood that they were aware of Lexi's plan to send Jane abroad. "I suggest that while Zachary is looking for Jane, you should take care of the Sanchez family's matters. Otherwise, when Zachary comes back, there will be hell to pay." Jane ate the meal the waiter brought and then felt drowsy. She fell into a light sleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already half past nine. She remembered the things she had told the little girl before leaving and quickly grabbed her phone to call. But just then, the door was suddenly kicked open. Several adult men stormed in and grabbed her, dragging her outside. "What are you doing?" They had originally planned to reach the border, but unexpectedly, a violent storm had forced a slight course change. This delay allowed the effects of th

    Lexi said, "The plane will leave traces. By then, Zachary will find you. The ship will change at the border and private sea areas. Once she changes ships, it will be hard to track." Jane remembered when Jack had taken Charlotte away before. She felt a sense of unease. After all, Lexi wasn't someone she could fully trust. "I didn't expect you to be so timid." Lexi noticed Jane's worry. "I thought someone with your background, who dared to pursue someone as different as Zachary, and even date him, would have extraordinary courage." But wasn't Jane regretting it now? Otherwise, why would she be running away? She decided not to care anymore. With a firm heart, she boarded the ship. Lexi smiled in satisfaction, but then a cold glint appeared in her eyes as she spoke to the captain. "When we reach the border, throw her into the sea and feed her to the sharks." No matter where she went, as long as Zachary wanted to find her, it was just a matter of time.

    Lexi was so angry that she wanted to smash something. She got up and walked away, with each step of her high heels hitting the ground, the sound echoing her immense fury. The more difficult it was to conquer, the more determined she became to conquer it! Zachary went directly back to the Collins family home. The Collins family members were somewhat uneasy. When they saw him come back alone, they were both shocked and suspicious. "Did Lexi not come back with you?" asked Rebecca. Zachary did not respond and walked upstairs with long strides. Rebecca, along with Sir Collins and Madam Collins, exchanged gazes, all feeling something was off. It was strange that Zachary had actually returned to the Collins family. "Sean." Rebecca saw someone else entering behind him and immediately asked, "Did you follow him the whole time? Did you notice anything unusual?" Sean bent slightly, his face carrying a polite smile as he respectfully replied, "No abnormalities w

    The situation between Zachary and Jane's relationship had not been made public. It was normal for the employees at the company not to know about it. Zachary did not answer when people congratulated him, and Lexi stood silently by his side, not saying anything either. But to those around them, their actions were as good as an admission.Some people even offered their congratulations, but Zachary didn't acknowledge them. He didn't go upstairs. Instead, he turned and left the building. This time, he didn't even get into Lexi's car. The smell inside the car was too overwhelming, making him dizzy.Lexi followed him, and they entered a nearby cafe. He didn't go straight to Jane's place, but Lexi knew that was just a way of hiding his true intentions. However, she wasn't concerned. After all, the Collins family would never approve of him being with Jane. She just needed to give him a bit of time to play along."Mr. Collins, aren't you going to consider my suggestion?" Lexi asked with a sli

    The shock from the Collins family was too much for her. She wouldn't take the initiative, nor would she have the courage to continue with him.So what other way did he have?He'd tried both soft and hard tactics, yet this situation was still more complicated than advanced mathematics.The next day.Lexi invited Zachary out.But the Collins family hesitated.Rebecca said, "Why don't you two spend some more time getting to know each other at home first?"Lexi smiled. "Mrs. Collins, I know what you're worried about, but that woman is no longer in Jeswood."Rebecca was aware of this.After all, they had been keeping an eye on Jane's movements. They even knew where she was staying.It was surprising that Lexi had just returned a day ago, yet she had already figured it out.This kind of method and family background was exactly what the Collins family needed.It was also what Zachary needed."I've erased all traces. Even if he wants to find her today, he won't be able to, and it

    The landlord nodded understandingly. "You young people do have a lot of new ideas."They chatted casually and soon reached the large square.The stage had already been set up.They had arrived early, but there were already a lot of people gathered.Jane commented, "It's quite formal."The landlord proudly replied, "This isn't just a community event, there are even celebrities."Jane became a little curious and wanted to see what celebrities were here.It turned out to be an R-list boy band, along with a few elderly artists.Well, it was still a big stage.She watched for a while, but soon lost interest. She made an excuse to go to the bathroom.Under the cover of night, she wandered around.She spotted a small shop and bought a bag of cheese-flavored chips to eat.This kind of life, she thought, couldn't last long. She hoped Zachary would hurry up and get married, so he would stop bothering her."Jane..." Jane was lost in thought when the voice startled her, almost caus

    "Stop dreaming."Lexi, despite her feelings for Zachary, couldn't suppress her anger anymore."You want to marry that woman? That's nothing but wishful thinking."Zachary's gaze was icy, and every word he spoke, from his thin lips, carried a chilling frost."Her name is Jane."Lexi, at this point in her life, had never met a man who not only showed no interest in her but also repeatedly poked at her vulnerabilities."The more you protect her, the more dangerous she becomes. My offer won't change. You'll come to me eventually."With that, she turned, her heels clicking sharply as she walked toward the door."Excuse me, open the door."Sean opened the door.Lexi held her head high as she walked downstairs.Sean was about to close the door when Zachary threw the food outside.He even "thoughtfully" closed the door after that.When Rebecca saw the untouched food that Sean had brought down, she couldn't help but feel some pity."Not eating yet?"She had just praised Lexi for
