Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1176
Buck served Westley the longest.Jax and Silas were always out, keeping an eye on other matters.Because Buck was assigned to go with Jordan, Jax was transferred to Westley's side.However, Buck had some understanding of the situation between Westley and Jordan.He had not hidden anything that had happened recently and had shared everything with Buck."I think it's hard to go back. Even if they force themselves to be together, their later years will be filled with scars."After hearing this, Buck felt like his head was about to explode.He hadn't expected that after spending time in the small room, there would be something even bigger than locking up Jordan.If the man Jordan met was truly her cousin...Then their boss's task of winning her over would be like playing a game in veteran mode."Why didn't you stop him?" asked Buck.Jax sighed. "I wanted to."But after all, Westley was the master, and they, as soldiers, could only obey orders.Buck didn't want to think too muc

Zachary had a faint smile on his lips. "I've quit. I have a wife and kid now."Nathan exhaled a puff of smoke, his face somewhat obscured but also showing a bit of coldness."Knowing my identity beforehand, your performance wasn't great.""If Westley knew I was Jordan's cousin, he wouldn't have acted so recklessly."Zachary responded indifferently, "Everyone has their own abilities."Nathan extinguished his cigarette and patted Zachary's shoulder twice.The two of them returned to the private room.They had one last drink before the meal ended.Zachary had arranged for a hotel.Jane had originally planned for Jordan to go home, but since she was heading to Impelia early the next morning, she decided to stay at the hotel."Remember to send me a message.""Okay," Jordan obediently agreed and watched Jane leave.She then entered the hotel.After parting ways with Nathan on the first floor, she swiped her access card and entered her room.After turning on the lights, she aske

Jordan felt a bit excited, and only managed to doze off for a little while when it was nearly dawn.Jasmine was the same, but the reason for her excitement was different from Jordan's.After meeting Nathan, she felt that the "husbands" in her phone wasn't as appealing anymore.No matter whether she was worthy of Nathan or not, even having a short-lived relationship would still be worth it."Are you sure?"The two of them got up early and washed up together.Jordan, with toothpaste in her mouth, asked in a muffled voice when she heard Jasmine's decision.Jasmine nodded."It's worth a try.""Mr. Jackson has good qualities in many aspects. Having such an outstanding ex could also be something to brag about in the future."Jordan felt that Nathan wasn't someone who would play with feelings.If he truly liked someone, he would definitely take good care of them.The key point was that he didn't like her.After rinsing her mouth, she reminded, "You haven't even confirmed anything

Nathan had been trained from a young age, and there were almost no women around him.At that time, the Jackson family was unstable, and all their focus was on how to grow quickly.The only women around were the female relatives of the family.He vaguely remembered one girl.She was a girl he had rescued during a mission.What impressed him the most was that, in such an environment, she didn't even cry.When she saw him, she smiled and said, "You're so handsome."She had been sold by her parents because she was a girl.Her family had three younger brothers who needed money.When he returned her, her family wasn't happy.Nathan noticed that she might be sold again and even allowed her to stay at his place for a while.Later, she passed the exam and left, and he never saw her again.At that time, the Jackson family was also in turmoil.They moved from Yelar to Impelia.Over time, he gradually forgot about her.Maybe she was already living a wonderful life now."No," Nathan

But someone with such a background couldn't avoid the need for an arranged marriage.That was why she asked if he was married.However, matchmaking was one thing. People’s feelings was another. One’s feelings couldn’t be forced."During this time, create more opportunities for them. If there's chemistry, things will naturally develop. If not, find Jasmine another handsome guy. Don't hang all your hopes on one person."Jordan replied with an acknowledgment emoji.She put her phone away and began to plan the next steps.Unconsciously, she fell asleep.Nathan brought a blanket and covered Jordan.Then he covered himself with a blanket and went to sleep.He knew that Jasmine was someone Jordan had brought along, but he wouldn't personally take care of her. After all, they didn't have a blood relationship.He didn't want any misunderstandings.So, he instructed the flight attendants accordingly.Though he had never been in a relationship and had never liked anyone,He knew that
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1181
The two of them spent a long time exchanging stickers.They completely forgot about the important conversation they had just been having.At that moment, a flight attendant came over to remind them to fasten their seatbelts and prepare for landing.Jordan put away her phone.Oh well, she would find another opportunity later.Before that, she needed to ask Nathan what he thought about it.The hotel Nathan arranged for them.It wasn’t the right time to bring Jordan back to the Jackson family yet.However, during the filming period, he could arrange a blind date for her.“The hotel has food, and there are plenty of good restaurants and fun places nearby. You can plan your own schedule. I have something to take care of today, so I won’t be able to accompany you. If you need anything, call me.” He looked at Jordan and said warmly, “Do whatever you want, just put it on my tab.”Jordan smiled sweetly, her tone carrying a hint of playfulness. “Having an older brother is so nice.”Na

Nathan pulled out a chair and sat across from the man.They started talking about the filming project.Max Jenson immediately arranged for someone to take care of the project.“You’re always giving me more work to do. If you ask me, you should just acknowledge her directly instead of going in such a roundabout way.”Nathan thought of Westley, and his voice turned a little cold. “It’s been worth it.”“Are you preparing to completely fall out with the Howard family?”“They were the ones who acted dishonorably first.”Max didn’t really care—he was just here for the show.“But let me remind you, no matter what, the Howard family’s status is still quite high. We might have influence in Impelia, but their ancestors earned merit.”Nathan’s gaze darkened. “I don’t care about their ancestors. If they dared to bully my sister, they must pay the price.”Jordan had been to Impelia before.She took Jasmine around, revisiting places she hadn’t been able to capture on camera before.They

Jane. "If you like him, go for it. Fair competition."Jane. "You haven’t even confessed, and he hasn’t rejected you. But just because he’s on a blind date, you’re both panicking?"Jordan showed the message to Jasmine and asked for her thoughts.Because the truth was, she hadn’t actually expressed her feelings, and Nathan hadn’t clearly refused her either.Right now, it was just a blind date, not a marriage arrangement.She still felt there was a chance.It was just a matter of whether Jasmine was willing to take a bold step.Jasmine shook her head. "Forget it. Didn’t Jane say not to get stuck on just one person? I’ll find another handsome guy."Jordan replied to Jane, passing on Jasmine’s decision.Jane responded, "Alright, I’ll introduce her to some good-looking guys later. While you’re in Impelia, keep an eye out—there are plenty of handsome men there. If you like someone, go for it. Have fun while you're young."Zachary, who was listening nearby, frowned slightly and said

Jordan hadn't decided yet. "Do you have any particular places you'd like to visit?"Jane said, "Then let's go shopping."She turned to Charlotte. "Can you walk?""I’m fine. If we get tired, we can find a place to sit and rest."Jane then looked at Whitney and asked if she wanted to go.Whitney nodded.The four girls made a quick decision and set off.Ross was eating an apple when he saw them coming out together. He immediately asked, "Mrs. Collins, where are you going? Do you need me to give you a lift?"Jane looked at the car behind him and noticed there were no other cars."Take us to the biggest shopping center.""Okay."The MPV was large, and with just Ross as the driver, it was more than enough for the four of them to sit comfortably."Ma’am, there are yogurts and snacks next to you, all your favorites."Jane glanced at it and said, "Remember to tell Zachary that it’s too late to apologize after making a mistake."Ross would only repeat the exact words to Zachary, an

Ross agreed and turned to leave.Jane kicked the door open with her foot, then stepped onto the balcony, and Whitney quickly came to help.After setting the breakfast down, she noticed something was wrong.Jane and Charlotte exchanged a glance.Jane asked in confusion, "Why are there things in here that neither Charlotte nor I like to eat?""It seems that Zachary and Frank were a bit careless."Whitney quickly said, "I can eat what you don't like."She wasn't picky about food, it was just that she used to not have enough to eat, so she had always eaten less and stayed thin.Jane hadn't heard Ross mention that Caleb had come.She said, "Don't you think Caleb specifically bought this for you?"Whitney was puzzled.Charlotte pointed and said, "The things we like to eat were all prepared by Frank and Zachary. They wouldn't purposely prepare things we don't eat. So, what do you think the extra food is for?"Whitney was momentarily stunned.She thought it was because Jane had or

Whitney washed up and went straight to bed.She didn't have the habit of playing on her phone before bed.Before coming to Nelana, all her work had been handed over.If something urgent came up, someone would call her.So she didn't check her phone, and thus missed Caleb's message.Caleb was on the hotel balcony, with his phone placed on the small coffee table.He held a glass of wine, swaying it absentmindedly.His gaze, however, remained fixed on the phone.But even when it got to dawn, there was no reply from Whitney.The man curved his lips slightly and lit a cigarette.He leaned against the balcony railing, waiting for the sun to rise.Whitney woke up in the morning, went to wash up, and after she finished, took a book from her luggage and went to sit on the swing on the balcony to read.As she passed the kitchen, she made herself a cup of coffee.She didn't like to move much, most of her time was spent on improving herself.She tried to learn as much as possible.S

Westley didn't say anything either.Zachary and Frank were a team, he was no match for them in an argument.His relationship with Caleb wasn't that close, so it was impossible for the latter to help him."They're having barbecue for lunch," said Frank, locking his phone. "They just ordered the ingredients."Jordan found two power strips and moved the pot to the balcony."Good thing we have these, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to eat.""Why do you have so many pots left in this house?" asked Whitney."I lived here for a while before," Jordan placed the plates and cutlery down. "I also feel like leaving these things here makes it seem like Grandpa is still around."Whitney apologized.Jordan smiled and reassured her, "It's fine. No need to apologize. From now on, we're good friends."Whitney nodded and smiled in agreement, "Alright.""By the way, Jordan.""What's up, Jane?"Jane said, "Both Zachary and Frank have booked hotels, so they don’t to stay here. It can't fit them

Jordan and Whitney chatted casually.Most of the time, it was Jordan doing the talking while Whitney listened.After covering enough about the wedding, they talked about Jordan's work over the past few years.She also mentioned the tangled feelings and past with Westley.When she got to that part, she grew a little curious. "Whitney, before you married Caleb, did you ever like anyone?"Whitney shook her head."What about a secret crush?""Not even that."Whitney rarely talked to others about her past.Zachary only knew because he had looked into her and thought she was perfectly suited to be a pawn.And she had needed to become that pawn—to completely sever ties with her past, achieve her goals, and fulfill her ambitions."I was too busy studying and working to think about anything else."Jordan sensed she didn't want to go further, so she didn't press.Just then, Jane called, saying she and Charlotte would arrive soon and join them for lunch.She relayed the message to W

"We had a meal together before, and I noticed you always seemed to like sweet dishes, so I tried buying some. I was worried it might not suit your taste.""It does, it does." Jordan took a bite of the pudding. "It's delicious. But did you buy anything you like to eat?"Whitney said, "I already had breakfast. I can't eat anymore."Jordan offered a suggestion, "Why not try a bite of this sponge cake? It's a specialty here in Nelana."Whitney really couldn't eat any more. She had a small appetite, a condition built up over the years.If she ate a full meal, she couldn't eat snacks afterward. And if she ate snacks, she would lose her appetite for meals.She had a small stomach.But seeing Jordan looking at her so expectantly, she still picked up a piece of sponge cake and took a bite."It's very good."Jordan smiled and took a big bite of the sponge cake herself."Whitney, you're so good at picking food! This is great!"The old house was a bit remote, but it had a rooftop terrac

Jordan said Whitney would be coming over later.Westley hadn't expected that the first one to get out of bed would actually be Whitney."Just the two of you?" he asked."For now, yes."Jordan glanced at her phone. In the group chat, it was just her and Whitney talking—no response yet from Jane or Charlotte.She more or less knew why Jane hadn't responded, but Charlotte too?Still, it didn't really matter. There weren't any specific plans for today anyway.She hadn't known Whitney was coming, so it was a nice surprise."Maybe my sister will text me around noon. We can decide what to do then.""You." She pointed at Westley. "You are not allowed to show up in front of me again after breakfast."Westley nodded. "Got it."After buying food, Whitney told Caleb, "I'm going to find Jordan. You can go handle your stuff. I'll be staying at her place until the wedding."Caleb leaned against the elevator wall, his voice low and lazy. "You're telling me what to do?"Whitney wasn't in a

She replied with an emoji, then looked for her girls in the group chat to ask them out for food.Their group chat had a new member now—Whitney.And it was Whitney who replied to her."I'm already eating at the hotel. Do you want to come over, or should I bring something to you later?"Whitney had actually had a good night's sleep.Though it was a bit later than her usual habit, she still managed to get up for breakfast.Before, it was always Caleb who brought breakfast to the bedside and fed her, because she simply couldn't get out of bed.Jordan figured she was probably having breakfast with Caleb and decided not to bother her."No need, I'll just eat something nearby. Your hotel isn't close to me."Whitney replied. "I'm heading over later anyway, but I'll probably be a bit late. If you're hungry, go ahead and eat something first. I'll bring you something else."Jordan. "Thanks."Whitney. "No problem."Caleb noticed her holding her phone, her expression much softer, even t

Caleb was thinking that in the future, he could let her drink a little more.Of course, only when he was around.She looked kind of cute like this."I did say that, but didn't you just say you wanted to thank me?"Whitney felt that alcohol really wasn't a good thing.Even when hanging out with Jane and the others, she decided not to drink too much anymore.The rationality and logic that she was so proud of had completely vanished.She had never been as calm in front of Caleb as she was with others.Besides, there was a power imbalance between her and him.If she were sober, she wouldn't have been able to reject him anyway.Let alone now, when her mind was muddled.But maybe because she was muddled, she dared to say things that she didn’t usually dare to say."I just lost my balance earlier, and you helped me. Even if you don't accept verbal gratitude, that doesn't mean I owe you something this big."Caleb saw she could barely stand, so he held her by the waist to keep her
