Jessica glanced at me. "It's convenient, but my mom has been waiting for you. It's just that Charlotte better not come in first. The doctor said my mom has been in a coma for too long, and her memory is quite confused. It's best for her to see only familiar faces first, to avoid affecting her physical and neurological recovery."The way she said it made it seem like I would be committing some unforgivable crime just by entering.I wasn't that insensitive. I looked at Ryan. "You go in. I'll leave first.""Since that's the case." Ryan coldly glanced at Jessica, then put his arm around my shoulder. "Let's wait for Ms. Wood to recover for a few days before coming to see her."I glanced at him in surprise, wanting to push his hand away, but he acted as if he didn't notice, unmoving."Ryan..." Jessica looked embarrassed, her eyes reddening. "Yesterday, you drove me away, and now at this time, you still...""Jessica, don't be unreasonable."From inside the ward came a weak voice of a w

Ryan's dark eyes glanced at me, as if hoping I would step back.I smiled faintly, firmly stating first, "What she said is true. We'll send her away by tomorrow night at the latest.""I don’t want an answer from you..."Ignoring my words, Lauren stared only at Ryan, looking like she couldn't bear to face the truth. "Ryan, tell Ms. Wood, is it true?"Perhaps my gaze was too direct, but despite his discomfort, Ryan spoke in a deep voice. "It's true.""Mom, did you hear that!"Jessica cried out, "Ryan clearly promised you he would take care of me, but now he's siding with outsiders to bully us."Ryan's face turned cold. "Charlotte is my wife, not an outsider!""You're getting divorced!"Jessica's face was streaked with tears as she emphasized firmly.As if she was the one who had been wronged.Ryan frowned, feeling displeased. "Until the divorce certificate is in hand, she remains my wife."I was somewhat surprised that he emphasized our relationship like this to Jessica."Eno

Ryan's mother, grandfather, and child. Three generations died at their hands."Charlotte! What nonsense are you spouting?" Jessica rushed over, shoved me, and warned fiercely, "I can sue you for defamation, do you know that?"With the situation slightly "improving," Lauren, also puzzled, looked over. "Ms. Wilson, what do you mean by that?""You know full well what I mean"Under Ryan's cold and gloomy expression, I spoke word by word to Lauren, "Back then, in order to marry into the Frost family, you pushed Ryan's pregnant mother down the stairs. Have you forgotten?""You need evidence to say that!" Lauren's voice rose and fell, seemingly very angry at my accusation!Just as Grandfather said, she thought that by destroying the surveillance, she left no evidence behind.Jessica, reminded by her words, also seized the crux of the matter. "Right, Charlotte, conviction isn't solely based on hearsay. Evidence, right?"I called Gary to bring over the document I had just given to Ryan.
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 168
On the day Grandfather passed away, he mentioned that Ryan would eventually find out. He couldn't be kept in the dark forever. Knowing that night was better than knowing later, to prevent him from being deceived by this Lauren and Jessica any longer.However, what caught me off guard was Albert, sounding puzzled on the phone. "Mrs. Frost, where did you hear about this?"My vision almost blacked out. I could already sense Ryan's extremely cold gaze!"Grandfather told me." I even started to doubt if I had remembered something wrong, but quickly confirmed that I hadn't. I tried to remind him, "Albert, don't you remember? It was in Grandfather's study that day, and Grandfather even took...""Are you mistaken?" Albert interrupted me abruptly!I was completely dumbfounded and couldn't believe it. "How could I possibly forget such a big thing...""Charlotte!" Jessica, who had been nervous, suddenly sneered. "Are you trying to bribe Albert to testify for you? Unfortunately, he was Gran

"So, you're afraid that the truth about his mother's death would upset him again?""Yes." Albert nodded. "The psychologist suggested taking it slow, waiting until Mr. Frost's condition improves.""Got it."I replied calmly, not feeling any other emotions. In fact, if it weren't for Grandfather's dying instructions, I wouldn't even want to deal with the Frost family's affairs.However, when I returned home and thought about Ryan's plight, I couldn't help but feel a trace of... pity.But soon, remembering how he had shouted at me in the ward, that pitiful trace of pity vanished completely.I suddenly hated myself a bit, hated that I was always unable to come up with a foolproof plan.Lying bored on the sofa, Jane suddenly arrived.I opened the door. "Why didn't you just use your fingerprint to get in?""I was afraid I might see something I shouldn't."Jane twisted her slender waist, entered gracefully, kicked off her heels, slipped into her own pair of house slippers, glanced a

"That really does look like them!"Following my gaze, Jane also saw the resemblance and got excited. "Let's go!"She unbuckled her seatbelt and quickly got out of the car.I followed closely behind as we rushed into the hotel lobby.But where were they?We had to approach the hotel receptionist. Jane softened her voice, "Miss, the man and woman who just entered, are they significantly different in age?"Jane was pretty and smiled disarmingly, making people let their guard down easily.One of the younger receptionists fell into her trap. "They seem quite different in age...""Different how? Your head looks a little different to me."The more experienced receptionist cut her off. She looked over and said, "I'm sorry, but we can't disclose any information about our guests.""That old man looks like my dad!"Jane's mind raced, tears in her eyes as she continued passionately, "My mom helped him to start his business from nothing, endured so much hardship, and now that he's made s

"It seems that Ryan, after all the trouble, is protecting his second stepmother?""Compared to him," I pursed my lips. "what I'm more curious about is how Lauren would react if this thing is true."Today at the hospital, she was still working so hard to defend her daughter.If she knew that her daughter had climbed into her husband's bed during these years she was unconscious...The showdown between mother and daughter should be quite spectacular.Jane glanced at me, saying, "What are you thinking? It's like you're planning something unethical."I smirked. "I'm thinking about when I can catch the live action of the piston in motion."Jane cocked her brows. "I didn't expect you, Charlotte, to be into such unique stuff.""Pushed into it."‘Jessica, this time, I will definitely hit the mark,’ I thought.At this hour, the nightlife at the bar had just begun, with loud music pounding the eardrums, and couples dancing intimately in the dance floor. It felt like like stepping into a

I jumped as I turned around to meet a pair of sparkling amber eyes, unconsciously patting my chest. "Jack, you scared me!""Sorry." He chuckled softly, his lips curling. "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation. I just happened to pass by."I smiled indifferently. "Are you here for business or with friends?""Friends."Jack's voice was warm, but when he looked at Jane, there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes. I naturally knew who his "friends" were. Jane also saw through it in a glance. "You guys talk. I'm going to dance."As soon as she entered the bar, she took off her coat, revealing a black silk strap dress that exposed her beautiful collarbones. Stepping onto the dance floor, she immediately drew many gazes. Her dancing was captivating.I watched Jack sit down before asking, "Is your injury okay? You probably shouldn't drink.""The injury's nothing serious, just looks scary." He shook his head casually, his eyes lightly amused. "I haven't been drinking, just

‘I’ve already taken my pants off and you’re just going to leave it at that?’She thought this must have been intentional on Westley's part.She raised her leg and kicked him, then turned around, pulling the blanket away, her back clearly showing a trace of resentment.Westley didn't mind, pulling both her and the blanket into his arms.He chuckled softly in her ear."Your reaction right now makes me think you're dissatisfied."The deliberate pause was even more teasing.Jordan immediately elbowed him.But because she was tangled in the blanket, she couldn't put much strength into it.The muffled laugh of the man in her ear clearly mocked her, making her even angrier.Her emotions flared up too quickly, and tears started falling.Westley felt the wetness on his arm, it was hot.He quickly sat up.He knew about her tendency to lose control of her tears, but seeing her cry still made his heart ache.He gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eye with his thumb and whis

"You can't possibly have nowhere to stay."Westley turned her around and found her eyes tightly closed.He laughed softly. "You used to try everything to see what’s in front of you right now, so what's wrong now?"Jordan had been influenced by dramas and novels back then.Because she was protected by the Howard family and watched over by Westley, there were no other men around her except for him.Even if there were, she couldn't see their abs.So at that time, she could only secretly look when he was training or at moments when he would take off his clothes.Leanne had also helped her a lot.When she was young, he saved her when she was hospitalized.He injured his shoulder, and he had to take off his clothes to apply medicine.During those days, she insisted on taking care of him and saw a lot.But all of this ended before she turned 18.It was like playing house, no one took it seriously.Later, she never had the chance to see Westley’s body again.Now, she couldn't loo

Westley's eyes flashed with a deep, meaningful smile.He replied calmly, "How did I trick you? I'm just being very sincere. I was just asking about the things from before. I didn't mean anything. If you're overthinking, then... Are you feeling guilty?"Jordan retorted immediately, "I'm not guilty!"Then, she weakly explained, "I didn't do anything wrong. My confession was real, and the words I said to your mom were for you. Later, I didn't contact you because your attitude toward me wasn't good. I didn't dare to reach out. So, it's all your fault."Westley laughed. "Alright, it's all my fault."He released her and stood up, heading toward the bathroom.Jordan stood frozen, not knowing why the conversation ended so abruptly.They didn't really reach any conclusion.But that wasn't the point. She followed him to the bathroom door and knocked."Westley, are you taking a shower?"There was no response. She pressed her ear to the door and thought she could hear water running.Alt

"I..."Jordan leaned on his shoulder, her voice soft. "Can you just say it?""Okay."Westley was easy to talk to. "You said that after giving it some thought, you might have mistaken your feelings for me. You might have confused sibling love with romantic love. Actually, maybe you don't really like me. That was the gist of it. The exact words, it's been so long, I don't remember."Jordan didn't believe that he didn't remember.If he didn't hold a grudge, he wouldn't have treated her the way he did afterward.He didn't even send her a message.Even when the Howard family invited them back for dinner, he had his subordinates contact her."You really are petty."Westley chuckled, pulling her even closer.He kissed the corner of her lips. "Yep, I'm petty. For the things I owe you, I'll apologize and make it up to you, but for the things I've done right, I'll remember them and make you pay me back."Jordan quickly grabbed his wrist, her speech speeding up."Westley, I can explai

Jordan was rendered speechless. "You didn't drink tonight. What, are you drunk from fruit juice?"Westley let go of her, changed his shoes, and, as if he were at his own home, casually unbuttoned his shirt and sat down on the sofa."Huh?"Jordan changed her shoes and walked over. She sat at the coffee table in front of him, her face serious as she said, "You'd better tell me the truth!"Westley leaned back against the sofa, his posture casual."What do you want me to confess?""I want you to..."The man suddenly moved closer, and Jordan swallowed her words.She stared wide-eyed at the extraordinarily handsome man in front of her.He had undone four buttons of his shirt, and as he moved, his muscular physique subtly showed through.Her gaze couldn't help but fall inside his collar.Suddenly, she felt her mouth becoming dry."Jordy, you need to take responsibility for your words.""I..."Before she could finish, her waist was grabbed, and before she could react, she was sit

Jordan spoke again as his car was about to drive into the underground car park. "The underground car park is very winding. Just drop me off in front of the building, make a U-turn, and you can leave."But Westley parked in the underground car park, at the parking space that was registered to her.Jordan unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car. Seeing that he got out too, she didn't think too much about it."Just drop me off here."Westley said calmly, "I'll send you upstairs and watch you go inside.""It's really safe here."Jordan couldn't argue with him. Though she said that, she still let him escort her upstairs.When she used her fingerprint to unlock the door, she said, "It's fine now.""I'll watch you go inside."Seeing his persistence, Jordan unlocked the door and entered.She planned to turn around and say goodbye, but she was suddenly pushed from behind.The sound of the door closing followed, and then she was hugged tightly from behind by the man.Only now d

Jordan thought for a moment, and a line of reasoning gradually became clear."Are you saying Nathan really is my brother?""Not exactly," said Westley. "He's related to you, he's your cousin."Jordan wasn't too surprised. "I see."Westley smiled. "You're much calmer when things happen now, but it still shows on your face. You need more practice."Jordan couldn't hide her emotions. She didn't show too much excitement, but she was still happy."Does my sister know?""Yes."Jordan blinked. "So, you all kept this from me, and I was the last to find out?"Westley pulled her up and headed for the dining room."We can talk while eating, it'll be cold if we wait."Jordan felt a little frustrated. "I'm so dumb."Westley peeled shrimp for her and said, "Nathan wanted to keep it a secret, so it's normal you didn't know.""But you all knew.""I knew because of my personality. You know me, if a stranger appears in front of me or you, I'll do a background check on him. Your sister know

He had someone redo the decoration, and there would always be someone there every day to do the cleaning.Today, he had originally planned to bring her back, cook for her, and had prepared all the ingredients.This wedding house, aside from the time when Jordan came to get the marriage certificate, she hadn't been here since—she went out to study and work.It was completely different from what she remembered.There were also many photos of them.From before the marriage, after the marriage, and even recently.Including the photos she had taken over the years—award-winning ones, those published in magazines, and those that made the trending searches."They're all here. You can look around. I'll call you when the food is ready."Jordan nodded and started to explore.She found a darkroom, which was specifically for developing photos.Inside, many photos hung on the walls.These were all from the three years she and Westley were ignoring each other. They were all of her life and

She wanted to see how he would truly lower his head for her.She also wanted to see if he really liked her.But later, after seeing the golden sea of flowers, he really did a lot to help her take pictures of the sea of clouds.The pink dolphins and fish were considered a blessing.She also witnessed them with him.So, she felt that the matter of pursuing her no longer mattered.She just wanted life to be simpler.She was really tired.She wanted to be happy and carefree.But unexpectedly, now that she didn't care about the pursuit anymore, he started again.It seemed that he would never follow her wishes.That stubbornness of his was something he couldn't change.‘Forget it,’ thought Jordan.She really couldn't be bothered to argue about these things anymore."Let's go." Jordan nodded and sat in the car after he opened the door.Westley walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat, leaning over to fasten her seatbelt.But Jordan fastened it herself.
