Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 118
"Okay, I get you!"Tears welled up in my eyes. As I turned my head, I saw a bright star in the sky. It was as if I had suddenly pulled myself out from an emotion that could have completely shattered me at any moment.Jack handed me a tissue from the car. "Go ahead and cry. You can cry today but don't cry anymore after today. Crying too much at times like this hurts your eyes."He didn't let me stay on the mountain for too long and drove me back to the city.After hesitating for a moment, I cautiously asked, "Jack, the girl you've liked for so many years must be a really good girl, right?""Yeah."He nodded without hesitation, his eyes and brows softening. "She's the same girl I mentioned to you just now."I couldn't help but be surprised. "But... that's many years ago.""Yeah, twenty years," he blurted out.Clearly, it was a sincere and deep-rooted affection.I sighed and didn't say anything more. When we arrived downstairs at Jane's house, I softly thanked him, "Thank you fo

I knew he wasn't joking.And I didn't want him to come up and disturb Jane, so I compromised. "Okay."Before going downstairs, Jane and Jack's actions were identical, wrapping me in an extended down jacket and pulling a hat over my head."Don't think I'm exaggerating." Jane poked my head. "It says online that it's windy now, and it's easy to get headaches in the future.""Alright, alright, you're the best."She meant well for me. After agreeing repeatedly, I casually changed into another pair of shoes and went downstairs.Seeing me coming out of the unit building, Ryan's eyes darkened. "Why are you wearing so much? Are you sick?""You care about me?"I found that I had lost the ability to talk to him properly.If he really cared about me, even if he didn't know I was pregnant, he should have asked yesterday how I was after being injured.Regardless of the severity, I had been hit by a car.Ryan frowned. "Why are you speaking in such a cryptic manner?"Not wanting to get int

I almost blurted out the words, but managed to hold back.There was no point in saying it.I smirked. "You really are selfless. Can I ask you to do another good deed next month?""Go ahead."I said calmly, "Come with me to get the divorce certificate."The restraint that held me tightened suddenly. I could feel the man's fingers tremble faintly, followed by a silent standoff.After a while, the elevator doors suddenly opened, and a loving couple walked out.Ryan seemed momentarily distracted. Seizing the opportunity, I pulled my wrist free and stepped into the elevator.I pressed the close button. As the elevator doors slowly shut, I unexpectedly felt a long-lost sense of relief.Separation was the best choice.It can only be separation.That night, whether it was because things were finally resolved or because I was exhausted, I slept until after nine the next day.Jane didn't wake me up even when she left for work.She made some sandwiches for me for breakfast.I ate tw

But he turned out to be my uncle!He could use this relationship to talk nonsense in front of Ryan!"Sis, speaking like this really hurts people's feelings." Bradley threw the snacks in his hand away and said, "I know. Isn't it just that your husband cheated on you? I just saw it earlier. That woman looks much worse than you, with a face like an internet celebrity. You let your husband play with her for a while, and when he gets tired of her, he'll come back to the family."In the eyes of these men without moral limits, it seemed particularly light and fluttering.I forced myself to remain calm. "I'm telling you, this matter doesn't need your meddling, understand?""Understood." Bob, as described online, was a typical example of a bad guy growing old. He grinned with his yellow teeth stained from smoking, boldly declaring, "If you don't want me to find Mr. Frost, that's fine. If you can give me 6,000 dollars a month in the future, and settle Bradley's job properly, I won't interfe
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 122
The man wore a dark-colored high-end western suit, his face solemn, his expression cold and indifferent, yet exuding a strong sense of oppression, a born aura of dominance.I was slightly stunned.Bob immediately changed his tune, no longer the arrogant and domineering figure from earlier. He rubbed his hands together, put on a smile, and approached Ryan, nodding and bowing, "Mr. Frost, why have you come? I was teaching this little brat a lesson."My sense of pride seemed to be trampled under Bob's feet. Even though I had already reached the point of divorce, I didn't want Ryan to see me in such a poor state or such an embarrassing relative."You can leave, this has nothing to do with you."I pushed Ryan towards the exit.I didn't want my uncle to meddle in our affairs, and similarly, I didn't want him involved in this mess."Are you scared?"Bob blocked the doorway in a stride, raising his voice. "Are you afraid my nephew-in-law will know how ungrateful you are?"I was render
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 123
Upon hearing this, Bob's expression immediately changed, looking very embarrassed. "This... this... we're all family, why do we need to be so clearly about things?"Ryan remained calm and serious, advising, "Of course we should. Uncle Bob, if there's a debt of gratitude, it should be repaid. Don't feel awkward about it. Besides the money she's given you over the years, you've raised her all these years, which must have cost at least 6 to 10 thousand dollars. So, I should give around 6 to 10 million.""Mainly, mainly..."Bob's face alternated between pale and red, finally flushing red. "Mainly it's been so many years, how can we calculate a sum?""Don't bother. What bank are you with? I'll make a call and check in a few minutes," Ryan threatened, as if he was about to take out his phone.Bob was frightened and immediately rushed over, desperately saying, "Mr. Frost, there’s no need to check!"He was afraid that if Ryan found out how poorly he had treated me, he would cause trouble
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 124
The tone of his voice was flat, but it was chillingly cold.It seemed like, as long as Bob dared, he would crush Bob's hand.This seems to be the first time I had ever, truly experienced what it was like to be defended by him.Only, it came a little too late. I wasn’t touched at allBob tried to move, but realized that a man like him couldn’t break free from Ryan’s grip. This caused him to tremble and quickly explained, "Mr. Frost, accident, this is an accident!"Aunt Laura looked at this situation and was also a little afraid, "Charlotte..."I would like to give Bob a lesson, but the aunt is already like this, it is not very appropriate.I can only pull Ryan's arm, "Forget it, let go of him."When Ryan was angry, it was not so easy to listen to others, he stared at Bob. "If you touch her, I will cut off your hand, understand?""I understand! I wouldn’t dare... you can rest assure!" Bob said with a pale face.Only then did Ryan throw his hand away. I felt exhausted as I looke

"Charlotte."His gaze lingered on me, emotions swirling in his eyes. "I regret going to the Civil Affairs Bureau with you.""Huh?""I can't bear to divorce you."His voice was low, as if veiled in mist.I licked my lips, nodded towards the elevator about to arrive. "I’ve got to go."I had said what needed to be said. Those futile struggles would only add to the trouble."I said I’ll give you a lift...""Ryan!"The elevator doors opened, and inside was unexpectedly Jessica, her face lit up in surprise, softly saying, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be free to come this afternoon? You couldn't bear to leave me alone, could you?"Without looking back, I stepped into the elevator, pressed the floor button, not even sparing a glance to see what expression Ryan had.Whether it was resignation, annoyance, or indulgence, none of it mattered to me now.What I must learn now was to let go. Let go of someone I had pursued for eight years but couldn't keep up with.On the way home, Jack

Charlotte patted her head. "First, make a video call to that little girl." Jane quickly found her phone and opened the landlord's WhatsApp. As soon as the call connected, the little girl appeared on screen, her eyes red. Tears were still visible on her face. The landlord was sitting next to her, waiting, not having gone to sleep. Jane apologized, "Sorry to disturb your rest." "Don't say that." The landlord gently patted her daughter's head. "I'm just happy you're alright." Jane smiled at the little girl. "Thanks to Celine, I'm fine." The little girl leaned closer to the screen. "Jane, you're lying. Your lips are swollen." Jane cleared her throat. "I ate something spicy earlier." She quickly added to prevent the little girl from saying anything else, "Alright, go to sleep now. We'll talk more when you get out of school. Jane went through a lot today, and she's tired too." The little girl, very understanding, handed the phone to her mother and went to bed

The captain laughed. "Don't think that just because we're from abroad, we don't understand anything.""Young lady, if you want to buy some time, then I'll play along with you. But if you're hoping for someone to rescue you, I advise you to give up on that thought. This is the border. Domestic ships can't get through here."Well, you don't know Frank.There's no one who can stop him from going where he wants to go.Jane tried her best to suppress her fear. "Sir, I have all kinds of tricks. If I can make you guys happy, can you spare my life?"She reached out, grabbed the captain's belt, and moved closer."As long as you don't kill me, you'll be my savior. I'll be yours from now on and let you have your fun with me. Is that okay?"Although Jane hadn't dressed herself up recently.But her facial features were stunning. Those fox-like eyes with a smile in them were even more alluring.The captain kept swallowing saliva. Apparently, he was attracted.However, they had already rece

They were anxious, not just because of the situation, but because they feared Zachary would go mad and go abroad with Jane. Frank glanced at their expressions and immediately understood that they were aware of Lexi's plan to send Jane abroad. "I suggest that while Zachary is looking for Jane, you should take care of the Sanchez family's matters. Otherwise, when Zachary comes back, there will be hell to pay." Jane ate the meal the waiter brought and then felt drowsy. She fell into a light sleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already half past nine. She remembered the things she had told the little girl before leaving and quickly grabbed her phone to call. But just then, the door was suddenly kicked open. Several adult men stormed in and grabbed her, dragging her outside. "What are you doing?" They had originally planned to reach the border, but unexpectedly, a violent storm had forced a slight course change. This delay allowed the effects of th

Lexi said, "The plane will leave traces. By then, Zachary will find you. The ship will change at the border and private sea areas. Once she changes ships, it will be hard to track." Jane remembered when Jack had taken Charlotte away before. She felt a sense of unease. After all, Lexi wasn't someone she could fully trust. "I didn't expect you to be so timid." Lexi noticed Jane's worry. "I thought someone with your background, who dared to pursue someone as different as Zachary, and even date him, would have extraordinary courage." But wasn't Jane regretting it now? Otherwise, why would she be running away? She decided not to care anymore. With a firm heart, she boarded the ship. Lexi smiled in satisfaction, but then a cold glint appeared in her eyes as she spoke to the captain. "When we reach the border, throw her into the sea and feed her to the sharks." No matter where she went, as long as Zachary wanted to find her, it was just a matter of time.
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 856
Lexi was so angry that she wanted to smash something. She got up and walked away, with each step of her high heels hitting the ground, the sound echoing her immense fury. The more difficult it was to conquer, the more determined she became to conquer it! Zachary went directly back to the Collins family home. The Collins family members were somewhat uneasy. When they saw him come back alone, they were both shocked and suspicious. "Did Lexi not come back with you?" asked Rebecca. Zachary did not respond and walked upstairs with long strides. Rebecca, along with Sir Collins and Madam Collins, exchanged gazes, all feeling something was off. It was strange that Zachary had actually returned to the Collins family. "Sean." Rebecca saw someone else entering behind him and immediately asked, "Did you follow him the whole time? Did you notice anything unusual?" Sean bent slightly, his face carrying a polite smile as he respectfully replied, "No abnormalities w

The situation between Zachary and Jane's relationship had not been made public. It was normal for the employees at the company not to know about it. Zachary did not answer when people congratulated him, and Lexi stood silently by his side, not saying anything either. But to those around them, their actions were as good as an admission.Some people even offered their congratulations, but Zachary didn't acknowledge them. He didn't go upstairs. Instead, he turned and left the building. This time, he didn't even get into Lexi's car. The smell inside the car was too overwhelming, making him dizzy.Lexi followed him, and they entered a nearby cafe. He didn't go straight to Jane's place, but Lexi knew that was just a way of hiding his true intentions. However, she wasn't concerned. After all, the Collins family would never approve of him being with Jane. She just needed to give him a bit of time to play along."Mr. Collins, aren't you going to consider my suggestion?" Lexi asked with a sli
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 854
The shock from the Collins family was too much for her. She wouldn't take the initiative, nor would she have the courage to continue with him.So what other way did he have?He'd tried both soft and hard tactics, yet this situation was still more complicated than advanced mathematics.The next day.Lexi invited Zachary out.But the Collins family hesitated.Rebecca said, "Why don't you two spend some more time getting to know each other at home first?"Lexi smiled. "Mrs. Collins, I know what you're worried about, but that woman is no longer in Jeswood."Rebecca was aware of this.After all, they had been keeping an eye on Jane's movements. They even knew where she was staying.It was surprising that Lexi had just returned a day ago, yet she had already figured it out.This kind of method and family background was exactly what the Collins family needed.It was also what Zachary needed."I've erased all traces. Even if he wants to find her today, he won't be able to, and it

The landlord nodded understandingly. "You young people do have a lot of new ideas."They chatted casually and soon reached the large square.The stage had already been set up.They had arrived early, but there were already a lot of people gathered.Jane commented, "It's quite formal."The landlord proudly replied, "This isn't just a community event, there are even celebrities."Jane became a little curious and wanted to see what celebrities were here.It turned out to be an R-list boy band, along with a few elderly artists.Well, it was still a big stage.She watched for a while, but soon lost interest. She made an excuse to go to the bathroom.Under the cover of night, she wandered around.She spotted a small shop and bought a bag of cheese-flavored chips to eat.This kind of life, she thought, couldn't last long. She hoped Zachary would hurry up and get married, so he would stop bothering her."Jane..." Jane was lost in thought when the voice startled her, almost caus
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 852
"Stop dreaming."Lexi, despite her feelings for Zachary, couldn't suppress her anger anymore."You want to marry that woman? That's nothing but wishful thinking."Zachary's gaze was icy, and every word he spoke, from his thin lips, carried a chilling frost."Her name is Jane."Lexi, at this point in her life, had never met a man who not only showed no interest in her but also repeatedly poked at her vulnerabilities."The more you protect her, the more dangerous she becomes. My offer won't change. You'll come to me eventually."With that, she turned, her heels clicking sharply as she walked toward the door."Excuse me, open the door."Sean opened the door.Lexi held her head high as she walked downstairs.Sean was about to close the door when Zachary threw the food outside.He even "thoughtfully" closed the door after that.When Rebecca saw the untouched food that Sean had brought down, she couldn't help but feel some pity."Not eating yet?"She had just praised Lexi for
