Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 157
"Yes." Gary breathed a sigh of relief.Upon arriving at the hospital, Ryan was promptly placed on a mobile hospital bed.The hospital room was brightly lit. It was only then that I noticed Ryan's face, unnaturally pale due to excessive blood loss.In the car... he had been putting on a brave front the whole time to keep me from worrying.As the doors of the emergency room closed, my heart was seized by a fierce fear.Even breathing became difficult.I leaned against the wall, unable to describe the turmoil in my heart.All I knew was that when the doors of the emergency room opened and the doctor came out saying the bullet had been removed, and as long as he rested well for a period of time, the problem would not be serious, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.I entered the hospital room, and his dark eyes stared at me intensely.As if he was trying to see through me.I pursed my lips and poured him a glass of water. "Gary has gone back to pack your daily necessities and clo

I didn't feel surprised at all. I felt no emotions either.Wherever Ryan was present, she behaved like a dog eyeing a meat bun, nothing she did would be surprising.Ryan's face darkened slightly, his voice cold. "I'm not thirsty anymore.""How come you're not thirsty anymore? Charlotte just said she would feed you..."Jessica's face frowned in confusion, then she muttered to herself, "Well, she doesn't understand you like I do. She can't tell when you want something."With that, she set the glass aside.I had been worried about Ryan's injury and hadn't found a good opportunity to ask about Jessica's situation. Now, an opportunity presented itself. I couldn't let it slip away.I looked at Ryan and curved my lips slightly. "Regarding her, have you made up your mind?"‘You said that you would consider it during the day, so by now you should have reached a decision,’ I though."What? What are you talking about?" Jessica, understanding that the "she" in my words referred to herself

"Have you forgotten how Charlotte and I lost our child?" Ryan's eyes were as cold as ice and his tone was chillingly intimidating.Jessica cried in complete despair, like a startled bunny. "It wasn't intentional... I didn't know she was pregnant! Ryan, you know, I was just so afraid of losing you that day, I lost my rationality! If I had known she was pregnant, I wouldn't have dared... Besides, I'm pregnant too! If I had known it would have such serious consequences, how could I... Would I abandon my own child?"‘So pretentious!’ I exclaimed inwardly.She must usually acted like this when she was alone with Ryan. She would act differently when Ryan’s around.I spoke coldly, "Who knows who the father of the child in your womb was, or if it was legitimate or not."Jessica's face visibly stiffened, pointing a trembling finger at me as if accused of a grave crime. "Charlotte, what nonsense are you talking about?""Enough." I took a deep breath. "I'm too lazy to argue with you about t

In the middle of the night, as I slept leaning on the hospital bed, I felt like dry fingers were caressing my face."You fool, you believe everything people tell you.""Mmm..." I brushed away that hand and turned in the other direction, then belatedly realized I was supposed to be taking care of a patient. I abruptly lifted my head, bewildered. "What did you just say? Is something wrong?"I only met Ryan's tightly closed eyes and his deep, steady breathing.Was I hallucinating?I didn't dwell on it much. I just thought I was imagining things, and then dozed off again.Early the next morning, Gary specially brought breakfast from a well-known cafe.It was exactly to Ryan's taste.But after just a few bites, he was off to attend to official matters.Gary didn't just bring breakfast; he also had a stack of documents that needed attention. Being the CEO of the Frost Group wasn't all that easy.As I ate my breakfast, I occasionally glanced in his direction.The warm winter sun st

The car slowly pulled up in front of a grand and majestic mansion. The driver got out first and opened the door for us.Jennifer, stepping lightly in her black kitten heels, led me through the gate with a straight posture that spoke of a refined upbringing since childhood."Actually, bringing Ms. Wilson here today is for a specific request," she said."What request?""You'll see when you go inside."At her words, I felt puzzled, but I didn't press for more information.Curiosity was something I seemed to lack.However, as she led me through the garden and I caught a glimpse through a window into the ancestral hall, I was momentarily stunned.Jack was kneeling on the floor, his back covered in shocking wounds, yet his face showed no pain or anger, just a calmness as still as stagnant water.The middle-aged lady grew increasingly furious, whipping him again. "Jack, don't think I can't do anything to you right now! If you die, I can just adopt another child and still inherit the

I vaguely guessed that the Renolds family's situation was probably complicated, but it wasn't appropriate to ask Jennifer, whom I had just met, about it.After a slight hesitation, I shook my head. "I'm sorry, I can't promise you that. He has his own convictions, and as his friend, I can only support him."He could have liked someone for twenty years, and he had always been calm and steady. He must have weighed the pros and cons of everything. It wasn't something outsiders could interfere with.Jennifer didn't show any displeasure on her face, just calmly said, "Aren't you curious who he likes?""If he wanted to tell me, he would."Since he hadn't told me yet, it meant he didn't want me to know. I also felt that between friends, it wasn't necessary to be completely transparent; it was okay for each other to have their own secrets.She suddenly changed the subject. "After graduating from college, my grandmother originally hoped he would inherit the family business early, like Ryan

"When I was brought back to the Renolds family that year, everyone cursed me as an illegitimate child."He fell silent for a moment, complex emotions swirling in his beautiful eyes. "But I knew, it was my dad who deceived my mom..."I finally understood that beneath the gentle exterior, Jack had also endured a long and painful past. His father was his mother's first love, but for the family's sake, he secretly married someone else without telling his mother. By the time she found out, he was almost born..."My mom took me far away, but we still couldn't escape Sally's revenge.""She..." As he mentioned this, pain flashed in his eyes, along with suppressed hatred that quickly subsided. "She's dead."His hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist, knuckles turning pale.I felt a heavy weight in my heart...He was eight years old that year, and his mother should have been around 30. Yet, because of her poor judgment of character, she paid such a heavy price.Jack smiled bitterl

I couldn’t give him an answer to that question.After all, I remembered that the girl had gotten married.I restarted the car and smiled gently. "I wish you well.""Okay," Jack responded cheerfully.I drove him to the building where he lived and hesitated before speaking, "About your injuries...""Don't listen to Jennifer's nonsense."He reached out and took the medicine, effortlessly easing my awkwardness. "Tom's at my place; just have him take care of it.""Alright." I felt somewhat relieved.It wasn't that I didn't want to help him with his wounds, but after all, it involved his back, which would require removing his shirt... My status might not be quite appropriate, and he would probably feel embarrassed too.As I prepared to return the car keys to him, he suddenly glanced over. "Today... I startled you, didn't I?"I lightly pinched my palm and honestly admitted that I was indeed frightened when I saw Sally hitting him like that. The whip had torn through his flesh.Bu

Rebecca touched her own neck.Zachary hadn't applied much force, but she felt that just a light squeeze from him in this area made her feel unbearably uncomfortable."The son I painstakingly gave birth to, for the sake of another woman, actually wants to strangle me, his own mother."Madam Collins was fiddling with her bracelet. "If you hadn't been involved in Jane's kidnapping, he wouldn't have laid a hand on you. Thinking back now, Zachary, apart from insisting on Jane, has been doing everything according to our requests. He hasn't started acting arbitrarily just because he gained power. He hasn't been reckless. I regret that I went to talk to Jane yesterday."Rebecca couldn't believe it. "Mom, what are you saying! You can't turn against us. You can't accept Zachary marrying Jane. This hasn't happened yet, but if they get married, everyone will know that Jane is the wife of the head of the Collins family. That will bring Zachary a lot of trouble. She doesn't have the ability to p

"I said I don’t know. Maybe it was because she knew she wasn't worthy of you, so I left."If this had been before, Zachary would have believed it.But this time, Jane had said she wouldn't leave.Moreover, Raymond had already said that she had been kidnapped.Thud—Zachary knelt in front of his mother, Rebecca.Rebecca was horrified.The members of the Collins family, startled by the commotion in the hospital room, walked to the door and were equally shocked.Zachary bowed his head to Rebecca."I will never forget your kindness in raising me, and the Collins family's nurturing of me. What I did to you just now was wrong. I'm sorry, Mom."As he spoke, he bowed a few more times."You're both getting old, and worrying too much can cause illness. It would be better to find a comfortable and pleasant place to rest properly."Noticing what Zachary was about to do, Madam Collins quickly spoke up, "Don't be impulsive. Let's talk calmly. We really didn't harm Jane. And we've already

Raymond didn't dare to hide anything and truthfully explained the situation.The phone was instantly hung up. With every beep, he felt like a hammer was striking his heart.By the time he reached the northern helipad, Zachary was already there.He was still wearing the clothes from when he had been taken for questioning.But now they were full of creases, clearly messy.It was obvious he had just gotten home, hadn't seen Jane, and upon hearing the report, he immediately rushed over.However, there were no signs of any helicopter having landed nearby."Wasn't it supposed to be the northern side?"Raymond's lips were trembling. "The helicopter's direction was heading north...""Could they have changed direction midway?" Zachary's voice was as cold as ice.It was sharper than winter winds, painfully piercing."I've already sent people to check the other helipads...""It's raining today, and they were in a hurry to leave. They might not have suddenly changed flight paths, it's

Watching Jane leave, Charlotte closed the door and turned around, only to bump into a man's chest.She looked up and asked him, "Zachary is really fine, right?"Frank wrapped his arms around her and led her inside. "What could happen? It's all within his expectations."Jane returned to her place, still thinking that Zachary was fine, but she still couldn't sleep.The next morning, she went to the shopping center.On the way, she replied to Charlotte's message about preparing to board her flight."Raymond, does Mr. Collins really not have any preferences?"She wanted to buy Zachary a set of clothes.Since they had been together, she had always been the one being taken care of.It seemed like she hadn't done much for him.This investigation wasn't a good thing, but she hoped that when he came out, he could wear something new, and that in the future, he wouldn't be tainted by these bad things because of her.But as she kept looking, she became more and more indecisive.Raymond

"He's also acting unilaterally, keeping things from me, thinking he's doing this for my own good, not wanting me to worry."Charlotte smiled. "Then I won't advise you."Jane was about to say something when her phone rang.In a hurry, she pulled it out and looked at it, but it wasn't Zachary.She answered, sounding exhausted, "Get to the point."Dominic paused for a moment. "I'm not saying this to nag, but don't be too hard on yourself, still need to pay attention to your health, do what you can."Jane laughed and scolded him, "What's your problem?""I've got something, a big thing.""Spit it out."Dominic chuckled. "Your clothes are ready. So, how about it? Come over and take a look? We only got two sets done, and the time is still tight. But it won't affect the next event. I've already checked the time."Jane immediately sat up straight, her voice gaining strength. "I'll come over right now."Then, she suddenly remembered something."Wait, I have something else to do. How

Raymond was startled. "Mrs. Collins..."Jane raised her hand to stop him from speaking, looking at Rebecca she said slowly, "If you can meet one condition of mine, I will leave the country immediately."Rebecca saw she had softened and her anger subsided a little. "Go on."Jane said, "If you make Zachary break up with me willingly, I will leave him. How about that?"Rebecca realized she had been tricked and immediately raised her hand.Jane sidestepped to avoid it.Rebecca lost control and sprained her waist."Ouch."Eric hurriedly supported her and was about to speak.But Jane had already taken Raymond and left in large strides.His eyes gradually filled with cruelty.Once in the car, Jane asked Raymond, "Zachary left you as the only one beside me?"Raymond started the car and replied, "Of course not. I'm just the one other people sees."Jane breathed a sigh of relief. "Then I'm at ease. Otherwise, if you were alone, I'd have to worry. What if the Collins family does some
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 984
When Raymond saw Madam Collins coming out of the conference room, his eyes nearly popped out of his head. It dawned on him that Jane had deceived him, but now he couldn't even report it."I raised you all to follow Zachary, not to help him mess things up!"Madam Collins's frustration needed an outlet. At her age, if she didn't vent her anger, it would soon send her to the hospital, unable to move a muscle."Look at the mess Zachary is in today. You'll all bear the responsibility. Come home with me and face the consequences!"Raymond knew he couldn't leave."When Mr. Collins returns, whatever punishment you want to give me is fine, but right now, I can't go. Please, calm down."Madam Collins was so angry that her breathing became erratic. "You've gone too far! Do you know who your master is? If it weren't for the Collins family, you'd have died in the slums long ago!"Raymond didn't deny it. He bowed respectfully and said, "I remember the Collins family's kindness, but Madam Coll

"You can just tell me directly what happened, or rather, what you want to say by coming to see me," said Jane.Madam Collins didn't continue to beat around the bush."Zachary has been taken in for questioning."Jane's fingers curled involuntarily, and a hint of nervousness flashed in her eyes.Madam Collins noticed her small gesture, observing every detail of Jane's reaction."There's no need to pretend to be calm. It's normal for you to feel emotional," she said. "After all, if it weren't for you, Zachary wouldn't have to go through this."Jane couldn't argue with that.Madam Collins continued, "I've known this day would come. Your father's existence is like a ticking time bomb, it was bound to explode sooner or later. I'll say it again. If you truly love Zachary, you should not be a stain on his life. I haven't said this before, but this time I must play the bad cop. Leave Zachary, child. You can name any conditions you want."Jane clenched her fists tightly, her fingertips g

Jane wasn't fooled."You just want to help Westley."Zachary laughed, placing some meat on her plate. "It's up to you."Ding-dong.The doorbell rang suddenly.With a mouthful of meat, Jane mumbled, "My place is quite lively recently."Zachary stood up to open the door.At the door stood Raymond."Sir...""You didn't answer your phone or respond to the messages. I had no choice but to..."Zachary's expression remained indifferent. "Get to the point."Raymond glanced behind him, lowering his voice to a near whisper. "The investigation team has arrived."Zachary's eyes flickered slightly, but his voice remained as cold as ever. "Got it."He turned back and walked to Jane, bending down to kiss her briefly. "I have to go on a business trip."Jane didn't ask more, with his job, business trips and meetings were normal. During the early stages of a project, it was understandable for him to be busy."How long?""Not sure yet."Zachary picked up his phone and quickly glanced at
