Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 130
"I'm not as dramatic as you."I left these words behind, unwilling to entangle with her any longer, and turned to leave."Don't go! You must give me an explanation today!"However, she suddenly rushed over, stumbling deliberately straight towards me.And beside me was a large fountain!She crashed into me directly, sending us both tumbling towards the fountain. I grabbed her arm fiercely, pulling her in with me!Didn't she want to die together?Then let's do it together.The bone-chilling water completely soaked us in an instant, unexpectedly filling my mouth and nose!Fortunately, the water wasn't deep. I groped around with my hands, trying to find a point of support, when a large hand suddenly gripped mine tightly."Charlotte!"In the next instant, someone pulled me out, wrapping me in a coat and holding me in a warm embrace!I coughed repeatedly from being choked by water, still recovering. Jack then shouted as he looked at Jessica, who was still struggling, "Don't rescu

Looking at his reaction, an indescribable sense of pleasure surged within me.This pleasure drove me to speak even more.I felt dizzy and my body seemed to burn, but my spirit was extremely exhilarated. I disregarded everything else, just wanting to vent my anger. I was eager to do so without delay.Facing his dark eyes, I smiled cruelly and spoke, "Yes, when I first found out, it was just five weeks. It was very tiny, so tiny it didn't even have a heartbeat yet. There were signs of a miscarriage. I had been having stomach pains during that time because I was pregnant."Ryan looked at me in distress and lifted his lips slightly. "Why... didn't you tell me?""It was on our third wedding anniversary when I found out. I was so happy, so eager to share the news with you. I prepared a candlelit dinner at home for our anniversary, hiding the test results in the cake I baked myself, hoping to surprise you...""I didn't see any cake...""That day, you didn't care about me at all!" I smi
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 132
Feeling like it wasn’t enough, I smiled and said, "Ryan, when I had the miscarriage, you were with someone else. When I came out of the operating room, you slapped me hard and asked me why I didn't stop her, because I was pregnant too... I was afraid of getting hurt... I didn't dare! Are you satisfied with this answer now?""Charlotte..."This was the first time I had seen such a bewildered expression on his face. He reached out as if to hold my hand.Unexpectedly, a pair of hands intercepted him first!Suddenly, Jack returned, his gentleness tinged with sharpness. "Are you here to settle the score for Jessica? This is my doing, it has nothing to do with Charlotte."In an instant, Ryan regained his usual cold demeanor, sneering. "As for your debts, there's plenty of time. No need to rush to offer your head.""I know Ryan's methods," I couldn't help but speak up. "Jack was helping me. There's no need to shift blame onto him. If you want to defend your loved one, just come at me."
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 133
On the way to the hospital, I slumped in the passenger seat, half-conscious. I kept thinking about Ryan's pained and desolate expression before I left. I felt like someone was stabbing it and it hurt.But after that outburst, the pain in my chest did ease considerably!Yes, it was true that we lost our child together.Why should I suffer alone?He should suffer too, together with me.Jack controlled the steering wheel with one hand, reaching out to touch my forehead with a worried expression. "You're running quite a high fever.""It's okay, just caught a chill, a few shots and I'll be fine."I shook my head nonchalantly.Anyway, there was no child in my belly anymore. Catching a cold and having a fever, I just needed some medicine and injections.The MS Group was the closest to the St. Heart Hospital. Jack was afraid of wasting time and chose the closest hospital, and I didn't care about that either. In such a large hospital, as long as there was no deliberate intent, no one c

The doctor behind the hospital director inquired about my condition, skipped the step of drawing blood and directly prescribed medication. He instructed a nurse to fetch it and started an IV drip for me.When the needle was inserted, I instinctively felt afraid and involuntarily pulled back my hand. Suddenly, a pair of cool hands covered my eyes gently. "Don't be afraid, the needle's already in," a soothing voice said.My heart settled slightly. Just as I relaxed, the needle pierced into my vein.Those hands withdrew, and I helplessly looked up at Jack. "Jack, you’ve learned to lie as well?""A well-intentioned lie." He chuckled softly.After the nurse helped me lie down on the bed, she also applied a cooling patch to bring down my fever. The dean and his group left soon after.The patch felt ice-cold and instantly made me feel much more comfortable.Jack sat beside the sickroom, gesturing outside. His expression was gentle, with a hint of hesitation as he spoke carefully, "Di

I reached out in the darkness to turn on the light, glancing towards the direction of the door. It was closed shut.It wasn't Jane.Jane had stayed with me at the hospital tonight, afraid that it might affect my sleep and delay my recovery. She insisted on sleeping on the sofa in the living room, but also worried that if I felt uncomfortable and called out for her, she wouldn't hear me, so the door remained half open.Now, obviously, someone had come in.Was it him...?I didn't know.But it didn't matter anymore.The next day, after a good night's sleep, I felt much better.The nurse brought a breakfast for two, along with fruits and bird's nest, a lavish spread.Jane clicked her tongue. "Your hospital is quite generous."The nurse smiled, "To help patients recover faster. However, the nutritional plan for Mrs. Frost was personally tailored by the hospital director."After saying this, she checked my temperature and other vitals, "Mrs. Frost, you still have a slight fever. P

My spirits lifted, and I pressed on. "Please don't hold back because of this. The divorce is between him and me. But Grandfather has always been so good to me, I don't want him to leave with unanswered questions."Offering him this reassurance, Albert finally made up his mind to speak. He took out a transparent sealed bag from his pocket, containing only a small pill.And this pill, I was intimately familiar with.It was the emergency medicine Grandfather always carried in his pocket.Albert said, "This was found a few days ago by the servants while cleaning Mr. William's study, under the carpet on his desk."I took it and examined it closely, a chill running down my spine. The air in Jelaston isn't particularly dry, so if the pill had fallen on the ground a while ago, it should have been somewhat damp. But there was no trace of moisture on this pill inside the bag.My voice tightened involuntarily. "When was the last major cleaning at the old mansion?""It happened the day befo

Albert suppressed his anger, glanced at her, and snorted!"Mr. William has only been gone a few days. As a junior, have you already forgotten what he said on his deathbed? Only Charlotte can be Mrs. Frost!""You, who are so unfilial, think you deserve to enter the Frost family?!"Albert seized the opportunity to spit out at her! Then he looked at me and respectfully said, "Mrs. Frost, I'll take my leave first. You should go inside quickly, lest some riffraff cause trouble and harm you!"With that, he led the servants and departed with a demeanor reminiscent of when Grandfather was still alive."What nonsense, who's causing trouble!"Jessica was left dumbfounded by Albert's outburst, sneering repeatedly. She glared at me. "From the oldest to the youngest in the Frost family, even a servant has been misled by you with aphrodisiacs?!""Could it be because you're just too unlikeable?" I retorted.She gnashed her teeth in anger. Jane suddenly walked out, her red lips curling provoca

Rhianna blinked her beautiful purple eyes and said coquettishly, "Yes, Westley, are you going to increase the bid? If you don't, the jewelry Mrs. Howard wants will belong to me. But it’s a fair competition, don’t get mad, okay?"Westley curved his lips, a strong and obvious hint of sarcasm in his expression."I could give it to you..."Jordan suddenly looked up, almost thinking she had misheard.But then she realized, Westley was someone with a deep sense of revenge.It was likely that he wasn’t increasing the bid out of desire, but to set a trap for Rhianna.Sure enough, the next words she heard were his cold, indifferent tone."400 million and 200 thousand. It’s not that I look down on you. It is possible for you to come up with 200 thousand dollars, but where are you going to get the 400 million from? Will you sell your family’s castle, or pull all the investments out of your business?"Rhianna wasn’t foolish. She sensed something was wrong and tried to get Westley to raise

"I don't like it." Jordan threw the paddle she was holding at him and stood up, intending to leave.Out of sight, out of mind.Westley grabbed her arm. "This is your mother's heirloom. You really don't want it?""What?"Jordan's head was about to explode. There had been too many shocks tonight.She still didn’t even know who her mother was.And yet, Westley knew that this was her mother’s heirloom?"Stop making things up. I don’t like this..."Westley still didn’t plan to reveal her true identity.Nathan was intentionally playing this hidden identity game.He was playing along.Besides, whether Jordan was from the Jackson family or not didn’t matter to him.As long as she was his, that was all that mattered."You’ll regret not bidding. Really, are you sure you don’t want it?" he said with a cryptic tone, guiding her subtly.He had already said that Jordan could bid on anything she liked.Yet here she was, hesitating.Jordan stared at the pear blossom jewelry on the stag

Her hand, resting on her lap, slowly clenched into a fist.Westley admired the change in her expression, silently smirking.Rhianna watched the whole scene and asked Westley in a foreign language, "Why does it feel like your wife doesn’t want to talk to you? Westley, did you intentionally arrange someone to act with you to reject me?"Westley answered indifferently, "If it were acting, wouldn’t the person I arranged cooperate with me? I made her unhappy before we came here, so it's normal for her to give me the cold shoulder. I brought her here to apologize and make her happy."Jordan couldn’t understand what they were saying and didn’t care. She was looking at the auction booklet.She was drawn to a set of pear blossom jewelry displayed in the catalog.She didn’t know why, but it felt as if there was some kind of connection.If the set wasn’t too expensive, she might try to bid on it.Her entire fortune should be enough, right?Westley’s gaze shifted over and saw her thumb ge

"I want to explain."Westley embraced her, lowering his head to whisper, as though they were deeply in love."I won’t repeat the same mistakes again as before, and I won’t make the same mistake multiple times."Jordan shrank her neck, trying to avoid him.His warm breath brushed against her ear, it was ticklish.But she couldn’t break free from him, so she could only try to move away as much as possible."Let go of me first."Westley lowered his head and kissed her ear."Since you’re here, let’s finish what we started."Jordan was unwilling. "You handle your own problems, don’t drag me into your competition with other women."Westley stared at her for a moment, not loosening his arm but pulling her closer."She already holds a grudge against you. It’s safer for you to stay by my side. Oh, by the way, just so you know, she’s a princess."Jordan slapped the cream cake in her hand right onto his face.She couldn’t hide her emotions, anger clearly written on her face.She wan

Jordan finally finished planting all the saplings and now all she had to do was wait for them to bloom.But she probably wouldn’t be able to see the flowers. She hoped the pear trees would grow wildly here."Mrs. Howard." Buck brought her a dress. "Mr. Howard said that there is a party tonight and would like to request your company."Jordan refused without hesitation.Buck added, "There’s also an auction, with many fun and interesting items. Don’t you want to buy gifts for your sister and little nephew?"Mentioning her sister and nephew made Jordan waver.Jane liked interesting things, and Jordan couldn’t easily go out on her own to gather them.And now, she had the opportunity.But she didn’t want to attend the event with Westley."Mrs. Howard, if I were you, I would go."Jordan ignored him. He was on Westley’s side.Buck’s mouth twitched, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "When Mr. Howard broke your heart, you should have asked for more money from him, to get revenge and s

Carter had hit a wall at every turn.He had also been poked at his sore spot, and his long-established cold and distant persona was on the verge of crumbling."Forget about Zachary and the others, after all, they’re not very close. But how long have I known you? You won't help? I even helped you persuade Jordan."Westley didn’t fall for it. "As for you and Mandy, no one can help. I can’t bring her to Nelana now. You can try convincing Zachary, maybe there’s still a chance."Wasn’t that just stating the obvious?Carter said, "If I could get Zachary's help, would I be telling you all this?"Westley replied, "That’s your problem. Who told you to force her? Back then, she was just a young girl, barely an adult. It’s normal for her to be afraid of you and find you disgusting."A flash of sadness appeared in Carter's eyes."I was just too angry back then. It wasn’t intentional...""I’ve said that too." Westley put down the binoculars. "You saw my outcome. Obviously, it was useless."

"Jane, don't argue with Zachary. This time, I am staying here voluntarily," said Jordan."I’ve made a bet with Westley, and there will be a resolution in the end."Jane nodded. "I can let you handle this matter yourself, but you have to promise me that you won’t let yourself get hurt, and you won’t just keep sacrificing yourself. If it becomes unbearable, give it up. I’ll always be here to support you."Jordan nodded. "Okay."The two sisters chatted for a long time, and only when Jane started to feel sleepy did they end the video call.Jordan handed the phone to Buck and closed the door to her room.Buck was left standing there.He felt like he had been completely abandoned, as if everything around him had fallen apart.Anyway, as a sandwich in the middle, he was already crushed, so it didn’t matter anymore.For several days, Jordan got up to eat, and the food was always food prepared by the chef.She hadn’t seen Westley around.She couldn’t really say how she felt. She just

"He is faking his psychological illness," Jordan rebutted.Even if he had one, it had nothing to do with her.Even she didn’t have any psychological issues, how could someone with such a strong mind like Westley have any psychological issues?He shouldn’t blame her for everything.Having seen enough, she turned around and walked away.But Carter called her back. "He once took good care of you, and you're going to be this heartless?"Jordan wasn’t familiar with Carter. He was usually a man of few words with a cold personality.If she greeted him, he wouldn’t respond. If she talked too much, she might get an icy look in return.She really didn’t expect that one day, he would try to mediate between her and Westley."You should focus more on your own matters," she said.His own love life was a mess, so what right did he have to interfere in hers?Jordan’s emotions were written all over her face, she didn’t hide them.Carter could guess how she was feeling just by looking at her

Jane didn’t care about Westley. Even if he was feeling it now, it was too late for regrets.If he hadn’t acted the way he did, Jordan wouldn’t have suffered so much.Moreover, he had once ignored her cries for help, so now he shouldn’t blame Jordan for his injuries.“How’s my sister?” she asked.Roy replied, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Collins, Ms. Hickey is doing fine. Except for the lack of freedom, there are no other restrictions.”“When can I have a video call with her?”Roy thought for a moment. “Since Mr. Howard is now delirious, I can make the arrangements.”“Thank you,” said Jane.“It’s no trouble, it’s my job.”After hanging up the phone, Jane looked at Zachary and asked, “What do you think?”Zachary moved the phone a little farther away to avoid radiation.After finishing the massage, he helped her lie down and said, “I’m thinking what you’re thinking.”Jane gave him a sidelong glance. “You’re slick.”Zachary smirked and bent down to kiss her forehead.“Get some rest.”
