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

"Am I slandering him?"I could see the anger in his eyes.Seeing how easily he got angry now, I suddenly felt relieved both physically and mentally. "Isn't it true? Ryan, you told me that evidence is needed for everything."With that said, I walked towards the room.Behind me, the man suppressed his anger, uttering two words through gritted teeth, "Six o'clock.""Got it!"I didn't look back.The reason I agreed wasn't because of him, but because I thought of the scene where Jack was beaten in the ancestral hall that day. Suddenly, I hoped that if Sally embarrassed him again tonight, I could stand by him for once.For once, it was my turn to help him.After all, with the status of Mrs. Frost, it was unnecessary not to use it.After taking a shower and tidying up in my room, I put on an exquisite makeup.For such occasions, being elegant and dignified was enough. Therefore, when choosing a dress, I opted for an embroidered little black dress that ended at the knees, revealing

There was no need to turn around, just from the voice, I knew it was Jessica.Ryan calmly withdrew his arm. "Why are you here?""Dad brought me here."Jessica's voice was gentle. "Dad said I'll have to help you manage the Frost family in the future, so I came to get acquainted."I felt nothing but mockery inside. I heard Ryan's cold voice. "Then go find him. Why follow me around?""Why? Do you dislike me now?"Jessica pretended to be angry and then tried to please Ryan. "Oh, if it's about the photos from a few days ago, I'm not mad anymore. Why do you still care? Besides, it was Charlotte who cuckolded you, not me...""Jessica!" Ryan sternly interrupted, as if trying to shake her off.John appeared from nowhere, adopting his fatherly style. "I saw a few friends. I'll go say hello. Jessica hasn't been to such occasions before. Take care of her so no one bullies her."I walked away quickly, and I didn't hear what Ryan said as reply.It didn’t matter.Besides agreeing, what els

His eyes flickered slightly, looking ahead. "Yeah.""Why not call the police then?""Silly." Jack smiled. "Do you think the person celebrating her 80th birthday today would agree to me calling the police? Sometimes, achieving the same result can be done in different ways."His words were profound and difficult to fathom.I looked at him unexpectedly and laughed. "Jack, I think you're different from the Jack I knew before.""How come?" He paused for a moment, looking at me. "Or... do you not like me this way?""No!" I immediately denied, praising him. "I think you're even more capable and smart than the Jack I knew before. I really admire how thorough you are in your considerations."People like him and me had no one else to rely on.The only person we could rely on was ourselves.Moreover, he was in the wolf's den of the Renolds family. If he didn’t consider things thoroughly, he would only end up dead.He looked stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly brightened. "Really?"

A third party, and now a fourth party was being cursed at.Never did I expect that just as I burst into laughter, a stifled chuckle echoed not far behind me.Startled, I turned around and met a somewhat carefree and unruly face, with a hint of roguishness at the corners of his lips. He wore a leather jacket and casually leaned against the wall. "Mrs. Frost has quite unique tastes."Caught eavesdropping, I felt a bit guilty, but then dissipated it with a thought. "Aren't you the same?""I didn't want to interrupt your enjoyment.""Well, you've interrupted it now."I retorted, glancing at him. "Who are you, and how do you know about me?""Frank Smith." He told me his full name, abandoning his nonchalant demeanor and straightened up. "Mrs. Frost, goodbye."With that said, he walked away, grabbed the bun of the wealthy heiress, and sarcastically remarked, "Bethany, with your intelligence so dim that you can't even distinguish who the real Mrs. Frost is, you can forget about being a

Ryan grew increasingly displeased as he sneered. "You're quite concerned!""Oh, not really." I chuckled. "The fourth party who blocked Jessica today, that was her. Ryan, you can seamlessly transition from your first marriage to your second and third."His brows furrowed tightly. "Impossible.""How is it impossible? Don't you believe me? Ask Jessica yourself."After saying this, I realized that Jessica had been missing for half a day! I scanned the hall but didn't see my father-in-law, John, either.A thought flashed through my mind, and I quickly said, "I have a stomach ache, need to use the restroom!"With that, I clutched my stomach and hurried towards the direction of the restroom.The Renolds family's residence was vast. After finding no signs of movement in the restroom, I went straight to the backyard.The upper floors were reserved for the hosts; ordinary guests wouldn't go up there.They either left or were in some corner of the yard...The cold wind outside was bitin

Westley waited for a moment, and after Jane and Zachary went inside, a few seconds later, Jordan ran out.She waved at him. "Westley!"Westley glanced at Nathan, then picked up the gifts and went inside."Hurry up and come inside. It’s cold outside."Jordan reached out to help him with the things, but he refused."I can handle it, it's heavy. You have grease on your hands too."Jordan wiped off the snowflakes on his shoulder. "Have you been waiting for a while?"Westley nodded. "Nathan is making things right for you two. Giving a little warning."Jordan glanced back secretly, asking softly, "What did he do to trouble you?""It's fine." Westley smiled slightly. "Just stood outside a bit longer."Jordan nodded and handed him his slippers.Nathan was behind them, watching the pair of them, the corner of his lips twitching.No one knew what he was thinking at that moment.Zachary had entered a few seconds before Westley, and he was already blending in well with the members of

Because the memorial was rushed, some of the gifts couldn't be bought straightaway.Aunt Orianna had a lot to say, but she didn't rush it. She allowed them to get some rest firstShe went to prepare for the evening's "big meal" with Aunt Emily.Jordan wanted to sleep with Jane.The two of them lay down in bed.They still felt a bit dazed."I really didn't expect we'd be sisters," said Jordan. "I didn't expect we'd be part of the Jackson family in Impelia. I didn’t expect us to have such a strong background."Jane felt even more moved than Jordan.After all, her childhood had been so tough that sometimes she couldn't even see a future.She never imagined that her future self would be a rich heiress!It felt so surreal.They did get up early today, and hadn't slept well last night.After chatting for a while, they both fell asleep.When they woke up, it was almost time for dinner.They rushed to wash up and go downstairs, seeing everyone busy, they asked, "Why didn't you wa

Aunt Orianna twirled her big wavy curls and proudly lifted her chin, saying, "Well, I'm unlucky in love and have inherited so many estates. Later, I thought, I have more money than I can spend, so it's better not to bring harm to others. Having so many lives on my hands isn't good either. You guys agree, right?"Jane and Jordan never expected Aunt Orianna to be such an interesting person.They were shocked for a moment."Well, Aunt Orianna, you're very kind," Jane commented.Jordan didn't know what to say, so she gave her a thumbs up.Aunt Orianna held their hands and said, "I was young and just wanted to have fun back then. Otherwise, I wouldn't have lost you two. I'm sorry.""Please don't say that." During dinner earlier, Jane had already sensed that although the members of the Jackson family were talking about joyful topics and seemed very concerned about them, there was still a lot unsaid.They hesitated, holding back many words.Now that they were alone, the atmosphere shi

Charlotte had left first and reminded Jane.They were going back to the Jackson family today to reunite with the family.However, there were so many issues between them and the Jackson family, which was why Charlotte left them space to adjust.Once they had naturally integrated with the Jackson family, she would come back to meet the family and have a meal together.Therefore, Jane didn't bring Zachary with her, and Jordan followed her example.As she expected, the Jackson family didn't ask about the two of them. Although the atmosphere was fine, they talked about the Jackson family matters and asked about their lives over the past few years.It was likely that Nathan had mentioned it beforehand, so they didn't bring up their marriage."Tonight, let's have Zachary and Westley come over. We'll introduce them to Grandpa and the others," Jane said to Nathan.Nathan nodded. "Aunt Emily's husband will be back tonight too.""It’s a gathering of the son-in-laws."Jane smile. "Looks

"Go ahead."Jane wiped his tears and said slowly, "To be honest, I can't say I've completely let go, but seeing you and hearing these words from you, I've decided to let go. Please don't bring this up again in the future. Let's live well from now on, okay?"Calvin nodded repeatedly. "I'll listen to you.""Then let's eat. I'm hungry.""Okay, okay."Nathan knew that when Jane spoke, Calvin would definitely listen.Once seated, Nathan introduced Jane and Jordan to the others."This is Aunt Emily and Aunt Orianna."Jane and Jordan both greeted. "Aunt Emily, Aunt Orianna."The two women's eyes were teary. "It's good that you're back."Nathan pointed to the girl next to Aunt Emily, "This is Aunt Emily's daughter, our cousin."Anna greeted them. "Hello, my dear cousins.""Hello."Nathan added, "Aunt Emily's husband couldn't come right now. Aunt Orianna is single. This is all our family."Jane glanced over and then Nathan leaned in to whisper in her ear, "Grandma and Grandpa had

"Okay."Jane watched her get into the car and waved her goodbye.Jordan was a bit confused and asked Jane, "Jane, why did Charlotte leave early?"Jane replied, "She wanted us to get familiar with our family first, then, as genuine members of the Jackson family, she would come as a guest.""But she's not a guest!""Yes, that's the charm of Charlotte. She knows how to maintain a sense of propriety."Nathan came out of the cemetery, got into the front car, and took Jane and the others back to the Jackson family's residence.Calvin and the members of the Jackson family had already been seated in the living room, waiting for them.Hearing the noise of the cars in the courtyard, Calvin stood up excitedly and walked to the door to greet them.He happened to meet Jane and Jordan.Calvin had once been a powerful figure, but in front of his granddaughters, he appeared helpless, like a child."They... they're here..."Jane and Jordan had already discussed it in the car. They both step

And she would also act as a supervisor, so they could rest assured about Jane and Jordan.With the visit completed, Nathan led them back to the Jackson family's residence."Grandfather felt guilty for not being able to speak with you yesterday. He didn't want to bring up old matters on such a joyous day and make everyone uncomfortable, so he's been waiting here at the Jackson family’s residence since early this morning."Jane asked with concern, "What do you early? Why didn't you try to persuade him? Wouldn't it have been better for him to come with us?"Nathan replied, "At his age, if he could be persuaded, I would have, but if not, I could only comfort him. I'm afraid if he gets too anxious, it might affect his health. Though it might also be that he's tired of me, as a troublesome brat. But when you two lovely granddaughters try to convince him, he'll probably listen."Jane stopped in her tracks.Nathan asked, "What's wrong?"Jane said, "I want to go see Aunt Irene."Nathan

"You both can rest in peace now. From now on, they will come visit you often."After saying this, he stepped aside to make space for Jane and Jordan.Jordan had attended Sir Howard's funeral before and, with the Howard family's help, had also handled her grandfather's passing.She had some experience, but when it came to facing her own parents, she felt overwhelmed and at a loss.When she knelt down, she nearly fell.A steady hand supported her, then knelt down beside her."Westley..."Although she had married Westley, she hadn't expected him to kneel down beside her like that."It's only right," he said.Beside them, Jane had knelt down before Jordan.Zachary followed and knelt with her.While the others were speaking, the two of them had already finished their bows.When Jane sat back up, her face was streaked with tears.She choked up and couldn't say a single word.After calling out "Mom, Dad," she stayed silent for a long time.Zachary spoke first—But not before g

They went to bed early that night and woke up early the next day.In Jeswood, winter had already arrived, and the days were shorter.When Jane got up, it was still pitch-black outside.But Zachary had already finished getting ready and prepared all the offerings for the visit.It seemed he had woken up at least two hours earlier than her—probably at dawn."Thank you," she said.Zachary smiled and gave her cheek a firm squeeze."What, it's only the second day after our wedding and you're acting all polite with me now? What are you thanking me for?"Jane looked at him seriously. "Even if we're very close, I should still thank you for this.""Alright, message received."Zachary could see the sadness in her eyes, so he didn't say anything more.On the other side, Westley also woke earlier than Jordan.He even called Zachary to go over the items they needed to prepare.The two of them split up the tasks.They also made sure to check with Nathan.He probably couldn't sleep eit
