"I do, and I have medicine too." Ryan stood up and walked over, each step feeling like it was treading on my heart. "I'll teach you how to change it.""You can change it yourself."With that, I turned to leave."Charlotte."His dry palm suddenly gripped mine, his voice gritty. "It hurts."Just these two simple words caused my heart to soften instantly.Moreover, it was a gunshot wound after all, not something to be taken lightly.I stared at him, skeptical. "Ryan, how come I never noticed before that you're so good at playing the victim?"He lowered his gaze casually. "So you don't buy it?""I don't."Leaving those two words behind, I tried to walk away again, but he forcefully pulled me back. For the first time ever, he lowered his proud head and softly said, "It really hurts."At that moment, even I wanted to have a go at myself. ‘Charlotte, you're really pathetic.’But thinking about his injury, I couldn't bring myself to be harsh.I felt that the saying that a woman wo

I saw him furrow his brows subtly. "Do I look like I'm picking a fight for no reason?"That was hard to say.I found the two of them annoying. I didn't even want to step out of the building. I turned back towards my room and said, "You'd better get her out of here, or I’m leaving."Unexpectedly, before I could even enter the room, Jessica came running up, "Ryan, look at this, that Charlotte..."Her words abruptly halted when her gaze landed on me.I didn't want to see her, but since she had mentioned me directly, I looked over. "What's wrong with me? Seems like you're really concerned about me.""You... what are you doing here? You're so shameless. Even after divorcing, you still come to the Frost family..."She tried to conceal it, but I could still hear the jealousy and resentment in her tone."Jessica!" Ryan's face turned cold, "I don't want to remind you for the third time that she is still my wife."I calmly responded, "Between him and me, we're still lacking a divorce ce

If that was the case, then this woman was even more terrifying than I thought.Lauren smiled faintly, her lips still somewhat pale, "It's all Ryan's filial piety. Although I've been lying in bed for these years, I've been well taken care of. It's precisely because of this, that I can rest assured entrusting Jessica to him completely.""Oh." My lips twitched, pretending not to understand her implication. "That's good."‘Being a mistress herself and arranging her daughter to be one too.’Unfortunately, her daughter had developed an addiction to being a mistress, not even sparing her own marriage.After saying this, I prepared to return to my room."Ms. Wilson."However, Lauren stopped me. "Jessica and I are here because Jessica received some photos about you. We don’t want to show them to Ryan behind your back, so you should take a look as well."I furrowed my brow, sensing this wouldn't be good.Ryan casually put his hands in his pockets, his voice calm. "Let's talk downstairs,

He stood up from his seat, his face darkening with accumulated gloom. Looking down at me for a long time from his elevated position, he finally gritted his teeth and tsaid, "Raise your pillow higher when you sleep tonight!"He might as well have told me to keep on dreaming.I was equally irritated, abruptly standing up and walking towards the reception room, glancing at the two bitches whispering to each other. "Alright, what's the matter?""Ryan!"Jessica proudly stood up, her gaze bypassing me and directly meeting Ryan's, dropping a bombshell. "Do you know, the child Charlotte is carrying might not be yours at all!"The air seemed to freeze instantly.I felt a burning anger rising within me, ready to slap her across the face. But this time, Jessica was prepared, pushing me aside and slamming an envelope against my chest.She smirked contemptuously. "Take a look, see how you explain this to Ryan!"The envelope fell to the ground from my body. Someone was quicker to pick it up

"Ms. Wilson, the nature of the two situations is completely different."Lauren argued forcefully, though her voice remained gentle. "The evidence you presented yesterday only showed that Jessica happened to come into contact with the medication for Grandpa. What does that prove? She merely intended to feed Grandpa. As for you two... standing at the door like that, both adults, what else could happen?"I picked up the glass from the coffee table and splashed it over her face without hesitation, sneering. "Lauren, say one more word and it won't just be water I throw."Jessica slept with her stepfather behind everyone's back, but publicly, she portrayed herself as a dutiful daughter, instantly becoming frantic. "Are you crazy to treat my mom like this?"I grabbed another cup and emptied it on her face as well. "I dare you to speak one more word."Jessica's exquisite makeup was ruined by me. She looked at me incredulously, "Charlotte..."Lauren didn't expect me to act so boldly. Her

I couldn't read him.Instinctively, I stepped back. "What do you mean?""Let’s not get a divorce, okay?" Ryan held my wrist, feeling my pulse. "From now on, no matter what happens, I only want you. No one else.""Including Lauren and Jessica?""Yes.""Ryan." I found it absurd. "Do you even believe what you're saying?"If it was a sudden awakening, it came too late.I didn't expect him to believe me today, but that wasn't enough to bridge all the past barriers between us.His voice was slow and deep. "Are you still unwilling?"I looked at him firmly and uttered five words. "Yes, I am unwilling."If this decision had been made before losing the child, I might have agreed immediately.But now, I couldn't think of any reason to say yes.Did he cross over me to help another person when I was knocked down?Or did he not hit hard enough when I miscarried?Our marriage had reached a dead end.Ryan fell silent for a long time, gripping my hand tighter. Finally, his eyes were clea

I lay back on the bed to read, but after who knows how long, I realized the book was upside down. I started feeling restless. I wondered what was wrong with him. If it was because of that gunshot... It should have been me.I closed the book in a fluster and headed to the balcony for some fresh air. At that moment, someone knocked on the door, accompanied by Albert's voice. "Mrs. Frost."My feet quickened involuntarily as I opened the door. "Albert, how is Ryan?""He has a fever."I breathed a slight sigh of relief, thinking it was just a cold or something similar. But then Albert continued, "It's from the infection caused by the gunshot a few days ago. He won't let anyone touch him now, nor will he take any medicine. You're divorcing, and I shouldn't have come to you. But he was calling out your name in his sleep..."I squeezed my hands. "I'll go see him."It was right and proper for me to do so, emotionally and logically.Due to the fever, Ryan's cheeks were flushed unnaturally
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 184
I stood dumbfounded for a moment, feeling both pity and resentment towards the man before me. I couldn't distinguish between his sincerity and pretense anymore. Nor did I want to bother figuring it out, because soon enough, we would have absolutely nothing to do with each other.I sniffed and forcibly shook Ryan awake. "Take your medicine before you sleep."Perhaps knowing it was me, he didn't resist when I brought the medicine to his lips. Instead, he cooperated.After taking the medicine, he obediently fell back asleep.His fever was frighteningly high, not something that would go away quickly.I asked Albert for ointment and applied it to the burns on Ryan's wrist. Only after his fever began to subside did I get up and return to my room.Perhaps because his health was generally good and he was still young, Albert came the next morning to inform me that his fever had completely gone.However, in the afternoon, several high-fashion dresses were delivered by the servants."Ryan

Such a wonderful thing as a proposal happened today.Tonight should at least count as a wedding night, right?The assistant hadn't expected them to argue. He thought Westley might have gone out to buy something to use later."I'll take you to the supermarket.""Head back to the hotel."Westley gave an order in a cold voice, then opened the door and got into the back seat of the car.The assistant was completely confused but still drove toward the hotel.He had never seen a couple argue right after getting engaged.But as an assistant, it wasn't his place to ask questions.Jordan couldn't sleep.By the time she got up, she had two dark circles around her eyes.She was about to put on makeup when she thought about their fight last night.Would their remarriage even happen today?If not, there was no point in dressing up.She hesitated in front of the mirror for a long time before finally putting on makeup to cover the dark circles.But she still didn't look happy.After c

"You're really not letting me in?"When Westley said this, he stared at her intently, his tone slightly rising at the end. It was obvious that he didn’t mean just entering the house.There was a deeper meaning.Jordan pulled her hand back and kicked him."Get lost, you pervert."Westley glanced at the shoe print on his leg and laughed. "What did I say? Who's the one with a dirty mind here?"Jordan was indeed at a loss for words. She was angry because he had seen right through her.She was frustrated that her emotions were always so easy to read.Especially in front of someone as sharp as Westley—there was nowhere to hide.That made her even angrier."Let me tell you, even if I agreed to your proposal, I can still take it back."As she spoke, she reached for the ring, intending to take it off.Westley caught her hand and pressed her fingerprint against the scanner.When the door opened, Jordan was stunned."Westley!""Yes?" Westley responded, pulling her into the house.

Jane glanced at the screen and said, "At least Westley has quite high EQ. I'm actually quite satisfied with that."Originally, the two of them had gotten married first, without actually being in a relationship, and even after the marriage, they hadn't managed to develop any feelings.It should have been the other way around. First, dating, then proposal, and finally marriage.Zachary asked her, "Now that you're fully recovered, and Charlotte has also finished making your wedding dress, when are you going to marry me? Or do you want me to propose to you again?"Jane raised her hand to stop his approach, but then used her finger to gently trace his jaw.Her eyes were full of allure.During this time in recovery, she hadn't been able to do anything.Afraid that she wouldn't take care of herself well, he hadn't even asked for her help to satisfy his desires.He had handled everything himself.Now, he couldn't bear it when she looked at him with such a teasing gaze.Zachary grabbe

He also took her to the highest point and used a telescope to look at the sky."Look at that one, it's your star, it's called Jordy."Jordan looked in the direction he pointed, and indeed, she saw a bright, shining star.By naming the star, it truly belonged to her.This was like picking a star from the sky.And he had also made so many stars for her using diamonds.Perhaps it was the atmosphere, but she took the initiative to hug Westley.Westley stood still and said, "I haven't broken our agreement. What’s the meaning of this?"He knew what she meant.But deep down, he was happy.Jordan let go of him and said, "Tomorrow is the awards ceremony.""Yes." Westley looked at her. "Are you nervous?"Jordan shook her head. "What's there to be nervous about? I've won awards before. I've already won the biggest awards, this time it's just a small one."Westley's gaze darkened. "I'll pick you up tomorrow to do your styling."At that moment, Jordan didn't realize he had a deeper in

He placed some meat on her plate and asked, "Don't you like being close to me? Or do you still think our relationship isn't suitable for closeness right now?"Jordan couldn't really explain.Westley answered for her, "Do you think the development between us is different from others? So it's awkward?"Jordan thought for a moment, and it seemed like that was the case.Westley continued, "So you still want to go through a process before we get to the point where we can kiss in a romantic relationship?"Jordan fell silent.Westley said, "If you have something to say, just say it. There's nothing we should be embarrassed about between us."Jordan bit her cutlery, and after a few seconds, she said, "Before we remarry, we can maintain a working relationship. We can eat together, do some things together, but we can't have any intimate behavior. Can you accept that?"Westley obviously couldn't accept it.He didn't really understand why she wanted it that way.But he still went along w

"Otherwise, would you listen to something you don't want to hear?"Jordan didn't want to argue with him. "I'll say this one last time... Mm!"Her lips were sealed, and when Jordan tried to push him away, she kept punching his shoulder.She tilted her head to dodge, but he firmly held her by the back of her head.She opened her mouth to bite him, but he grabbed her face, deepening the kiss.In the quiet office, with only the two of them, the sound of water droplets, which made hearts race and faces flush, could be heard.Jordan, unable to take it anymore, kicked him.But his long legs held her down.She was completely at his mercy, unable to move at all."Um..."It wasn't until the sound of a knock on the door broke the intimate atmosphere."I'm here for the interview... Is this a bad time?"As soon as Westley released her, Jordan immediately pushed him away, wiping her lips forcefully.She stomped on him hard and tried to calm her emotions as she looked toward the door."

Jordan went to sit on the sofa and casually raised her hand toward him."Go on."Westley looked at her, noticing how she resembled a boss, a look that had some of his own influence in it.He smiled.Jordan shot him a glare. "Be serious.""Alright."Westley sat up straight, looking serious.He began to explain his previous plans to her.Except for parts of the plan that needed to be kept confidential, he didn't hide anything else."The reason I had you stab me was indeed to let you vent your anger, to make up for the harm I've caused you. It was just a coincidence that the higher-ups issued an order at the same time, so I decided to go along with it. Now, the plan has been completed. I can indeed come back to life, but right now, there's nothing I need to do. The Howard family has Leanne, and I've already resigned. I'm just a jobless wanderer now, and no one cares. Whether I'm alive or not doesn't really matter."Jordan felt that those last two sentences were clearly meant to

But when she reached the bedroom door, ready to go out and check, she thought again, how could he, such a grown man, possibly be putting himself through hardship?With so many people under him, he could just call anyone to bring him clothes.And he could book a comfortable presidential suite for himself.There was no need for her to be concerned about it.Besides, it was her who had locked him out in the first place.Going out now would only make it seem like she cared about him too much.Right.She shouldn't go out.Jordan returned to her bed.But no matter what, she couldn't fall asleep.In the living room, Westley was already lying on the sofa.The heating was turned up high, so he wasn't worried about the cold.He was holding his phone, making some kind of plan.In the end, Jordan didn't even know how she fell asleep.When she woke up groggily, the first thing she did was get up and check on Westley.But she found that he wasn't there anymore.She let out a sigh of

She now saw herself only as a sister figure to him. Even though they were a bit close, there was still a sense of distance and wariness.It was impossible for her to fully open up to him.But at that moment, suddenly talking about their relationship wasn't really appropriate.Besides, with how things had developed between her and Westley, if he intervened, it would just force them apart.In the end, it would be her who got hurt.‘Forget it.’Nathan decided to just watch how things would unfold.If Westley still didn't realize his mistakes and hurt Jordan again, then no matter what, he couldn't let them be together."Has Jasmine not come back?""Huh?" The topic changed too quickly, and Jordan was a little slow to react. "No.""Nathan, did you take anything from this room?"Nathan's gaze darkened slightly. "No."Noticing that he was in a bad mood, Jordan didn't ask about his situation with Jasmine."Jasmine probably has something she wants to do."Nathan could tell from her
