Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 203
It seemed like the person who readily agreed to my terms yesterday wasn't him.I was somewhat annoyed and at a loss. "Didn't you agree not to let anyone else know for now?""Huh?" Frank frowned. "I agreed not to let anyone know you were spying and recording."‘Fine. So he had done nothing wrong after all. Was it just that I hadn't been clear enough?’"Do you have a grudge against the Frost family?""No." Frank looked at me, perplexed. "Can't you understand vicious business tactics? After being with Ryan for three years, hasn't he taught you any of this?"I couldn't help but pause.His straightforwardness was both frightening and intriguing because of his second question.I squeezed my palms and replied honestly, "No."After being by Ryan’s side, what had he taught me? Independence, tolerance, patience, devotion...Besides treating each other with respect, we had no unnecessary exchanges. He never discussed matters of fame and profit with me.This time, Frank seemed taken aba

.This was the first time I had encountered someone who constantly talked about money."Well, forget it then. I'll ask someone else." With that, I turned and headed indoors.Just as I returned, Jane came out from the private room, her eyes slightly red, clearly having cried. "Let's go back.""Is everything sorted out?" I took her coat from her and draped it over her shoulders.She sniffed, her eyes clear. "Yes. From now on, whether he forms alliances or not, it has nothing to do with me."Upon hearing her decisive words, I admired how she could handle things so calmly.On the way home, Jane drove, and suddenly I received a call from Jack.After hesitating for a moment, he finally asked, "Charlotte, the person with Frank just now, was that you?"I was taken aback but didn't lie to him. "Yes, it was me... How did you know?"Frank had covered me up so well.Even Ryan... only asked about a pair of shoes in such an uncertain tone.Yet Jack managed to guess it was me.On the othe

"I heard that Frank came to Jelaston this time to look for clues about his former fiancee.""I didn't expect him to be such a devoted person."I was somewhat surprised that there was someone like Jack, who persisted in his feelings for someone he met in his youth, for so many years.Jack smiled and didn't say much more. He then just added, "Will you be home tomorrow? I'll bring the gift over after work.""The gift?" It took me a moment to remember what he mentioned last night and nodded. "Alright, I should be home these next few days."The next day, I woke up naturally and felt the empty space beside me in bed.Jane was gone.I picked up my phone and saw her WhatsApp message. "I’m off. If Tom goes crazy again, I'll come back to seek shelter.""You’re such a player. You ran off after sleeping with me."I replied with a smile and lazily lay in bed, scrolling through my phone.The matter with Jessica and John, along with what she and Wen Fang had exposed at the Civil Affairs Bur

"Stop trying to scare me!"After Bob yelled this sentence, his eyes showed fear, and before I could respond, he ran away!"Alright, Jane, I have something to attend to right now, I'll get back to you later."I hung up on Jane's call and turned to Bradley, who seemed invisible as always. "Did you just going to stand by and watch your father treat your mother like this?"Bradley shrugged. "I don't have his strength, and he doesn't listen to me."I was furious beyond words, unsure of what to say.But Aunt Laura endured the pain and spoke up, "Bradley, wait outside for a moment. I need to talk to your cousin.""Okay."After Bradley left, I pulled up a chair and sat by the bedside. "Are your injuries taken care of properly? Is there anything left untreated?""No. These wounds just look severe. The doctors and security stopped your uncle before it got too serious."Aunt Laura shook her head, looking weaker than the last time I saw her. Tears silently streamed down her face. "I want

On my way to the Frost Group, I couldn't help but feel relieved that Ryan finally seemed willing to start suspecting Lauren and Jessica. I should have been able to breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps this time it would provide answers to both grandpa's and his mother's deaths. However, deep down, I still felt unsettled, though I couldn't quite pinpoint why.Upon arriving at the Frost Group, I immediately sensed a stark contrast to the atmosphere of the past. Everyone was hurrying around with serious expressions. As I exited the elevator on the top floor, this atmosphere reached its peak.Gary personally waited for me in the elevator lobby and escorted me to the CEO's office. Sensing my curiosity, he sighed. "The online situation has had a huge impact on the company. Several projects that were on the brink of completion are now being viewed with skepticism by our partners."I furrowed my brows. "It's gotten this serious?"It seemed that Frank indeed had considerable skills. His action
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 208
It could be said that since grandpa's passing, Lauren had probably become the only warmth he could find in familial bonds. But now... if what Jessica said was true, then his concept of family affection would be completely shattered. Emotions that had persisted for a decade or two would all be shattered together. Growing up in an unsatisfactory original family, experiencing this again could be another heavy blow.However, I did not agree with Albert's approach. Some things were better to be faced with immediate pain rather than prolonged agony. I stared firmly at Ryan. "Would you believe what I say?"His voice was gentle. "Yes."He must have thought about it for a long time before deciding to ask me, so his answer was not hesitant.Now that I had no more reservations, I picked up the coffee and took a sip. "If I were to say... the words I said in the hospital room that day...""Ryan!"The office door suddenly swung open without warning, accompanied by a crisp female voice that for

‘Suicide? So, is suicide their family's specialty, passed down through the generations?’ I wondered.I didn’t know what mentality I was in, but almost involuntarily, I asked, "Do you need me to go with you?"Maybe I wanted to see for myself if it was true or false.Or perhaps, I was afraid... afraid that if something really happened, Ryan wouldn't have anyone he could trust by his side.Ryan looked at me with surprise. "Can you?""Let's go." I picked up my bag and went with him to the hospital.When we arrived at the hospital, Lauren was still in the emergency room, and Jessica and John were waiting outside.The scene struck me as somewhat comical.But at such a tense moment, I shouldn't be laughing, so I mentally reviewed all the unhappy events in my life.Ryan, Jessica, John, plus Lauren inside the emergency room.If you were to draw a relationship diagram of these four people, it would probably resemble a chaotic spider web.Jessica suddenly rushed over and shoved me forc
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 210
Jessica clenched her fists quietly, her face filled with regret and stumbling through her confession, "I... I felt humiliated being publicly scolded by her, and in a fit of anger... I said those slanderous words about Mom! I was wrong... Ryan..."Her acting was truly impressive. If I hadn't already known the truth from Grandpa, I might have believed her story.Ryan's gaze fell on John, he squinted his eyes slightly. "What do you have to say?""What do I have to say?" John forced himself to remain calm. "If Lauren really was a mistress, how could we have waited five whole years after your mom's death to get married?"As he finished speaking, the door to the emergency room opened.Ryan remained skeptical and looked at the doctor. "How serious is it?""Mr. Frost." The doctor came out, removed his mask, and looked serious. "She lost a lot of blood. Luckily, she was brought in just in time. If it had been any later, she might not have made it."Visibly, Ryan's tense body relaxed a li

Westley knew why Zachary specifically mentioned these two things.Once the wedding was held, the whole world would know they were married.And once they had the child, he and Jordan would be very closely connected.Even if the hidden matters came to light, and there were issues between the Howard and Jackson families, it wouldn't be easy for Jordan to distance herself from him.But Westley didn't want to do that.He still needed to ask Jordan, and if she wanted to know, he would give her the choice.He had never really given her the power to choose before, he had always been forcing her into decisions."I'll notify you."Zachary didn't get involved in this matter and didn't say anything else.He first took Jordan and Westley back home.When they got out of the car, Jane said to Jordan, "Don't overthink it, this is all caused by the previous generation, it has nothing to do with us. If you keep thinking about it, aren't you punishing yourself for someone else's mistakes?"Jor

But he always had doubts in his heart.He had thought it was just a professional habit.Now he realized, it might not be, and this could be another kind of warning — from Grandpa.Someone like him, who could cause trouble for the Jackson family, was really quite extraordinary."It'll be fine, trust me, okay?"Jordan turned to hug him, burying her head in his shoulder.Westley gently patted her back, offering silent comfort.When she fell asleep, he took his phone and went to the balcony.He called his father."What a surprise," said Jonathan. "But... there must be a reason why you’re calling me so late at night, right?"Westley held a cigarette in his hand but didn't light it.To be honest, he wasn't feeling certain either.Sometimes, it was actually better to stay a little confused."Dad, do you know about the Jackson family?"Jonathan was silent for a moment. "You want to ask about your grandfather and the Jackson family?""Yes.""I advise you not to know too much abo

Jane also felt that finding out wouldn't mean anything. On the contrary, it might cause a fuss."Then we won't look into it. Let's just pretend we don't know anything."Jordan followed, "I agree with my sister."Zachary and Westley quickly exchanged a look.Westley agreed, saying they wouldn't investigate.But he was the kind of person who couldn't leave any potential risks, so he still needed to be clear about the cause and effect himself.Back at the Jackson family, Westley accompanied Calvin to play chess.Aunt Emily asked Zachary how things went.Zachary smiled faintly, replying, "It went well. No issues."Aunt Emily nodded. "Did both of them meet their grandma?""They did," said Zachary. "The two sisters took a peek, and I spoke with Calandra for a bit with Westley."Aunt Emily's gaze flickered. "What did you talk about?""Nothing much. Just some casual things." Zachary took out his phone. "Aunt Emily, I have a work call to make.""Go ahead and do what you have to."

The friend who Elvis took a bullet for was the same person who had brought Jordan to the Howard family back then.Westley suddenly felt that something he had overlooked was becoming clear.Zachary also sensed that something was off and signaled him to continue speaking.Westley said, "That friend had been with my grandfather for many years, they passed away one after the other."Calandra's expression suddenly changed, and she tightly grasped Westley's hand.Westley's heart sank, but he didn't show any emotion on his face. He gently asked, "Grandma, are you feeling unwell?"Calandra suddenly pushed Westley away. "It's all your fault!""If you had helped, how could all of this have happened?" Then Calandra began crying. "If it weren't for necessity, how could I have done such things? How could I lose my daughter, my granddaughter?"Westley and Zachary exchanged a glance and looked at Ruth. "Ruth, help Grandma get some rest. If she needs medicine, give it to her.""Okay." Ruth ha

The fact that Jordan resembled her mother was well known to everyone.She felt quite happy about it, but just as she was about to speak, the care worker’s words caused her to feel extremely upset."You look so much like her, so it's better if you don't go in."Jane patted Jordan's back, signaling her not to be upset.This wasn't her fault. It was beyond their control.Jordan shook her head, signaling that she was fine.Jane turned to the care worker and asked, "Can I go in then?"The care worker examined Jane closely and said, "You resemble your father a little, but thankfully, not as much as Mr. Jackson. However, I still suggest you don't go in. Even the slightest stimulus could be dangerous for someone who's sick."Jane hugged Jordan. "We really are sisters."Jordan gave a wry smile.Westley gently patted her head. "I'll go in first to take a look. Don't worry."He then turned to the care worker. "Take them to a warm place."The care worker led Jane and Jordan to enter fr

Everything was discussed in the group chat."You're not going?"Jane glanced at her grandfather. There was a rift between him and her grandmother, so it wasn't very convenient. But Aunt Emily was her grandmother's biological daughter.Since their grandmother had already lost two daughters, she should cherish Aunt Emily and Aunt Orianna even more.Aunt Emily's face darkened slightly. "Your grandmother is ill, so I won't go this time. If you can't stand it, just come back immediately. It'll be fine."Jane comforted Aunt Emily. "It's fine, I'll handle it. I still have some confidence when it comes to easing relationships."Aunt Emily forced a smile. "There's no need to force it. We're happy that your grandmother can live this long, without any pain when she leaves. As daughters, we're also relieved."Jane was curious, but since this matter was painful for the Jackson family, she didn't ask further.Zachary and Westley arrived late and apologized to Aunt Emily and Calvin."It's fi

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Jordan was no longer the fool she once was. "If we go down for breakfast in the morning, will they think we did something?"Westley smiled, hugging her and admitting his mistake. "I’m sorry, please don’t be mad.""You apologize every time, but you'll still do the same thing next time."Westley had originally thought that their real first time should be in the honeymoon suite.But the Jackson family's residence was hers, and it had been prepared for her from the beginning.He was indeed feeling tempted, but seeing how embarrassed she was, he decided to hold back.But then she insisted on getting close to him that night.It wasn't like he was impotent, how could he resist?"As for this matter, I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m apologizing because I love you.""Jordy."When he called her that, there was a sense of helplessness in his tone.Jordan also felt that she had overreacted.But in the Jackson family's residence with Westley... she really felt s

Aunt Emily also felt awkward. "Jane, it's cold today..."Jane glanced at the time and felt it was about time.She then took Calvin and Aunt Emily back home.Aunt Emily personally went to cook for everyone. She was full of joy since Jane and Jordan returned.Jane first gave Calvin his medicine and, with some free time, played chess with him.She didn't know how to play at all, but Calvin was very patient and taught her bit by bit.At dinner, they finally saw Westley and Jordan.Jane noticed that Jordan clearly avoided eye contact, her cheeks flushed with a bit of redness, feeling embarrassed and shy.Westley, however, remained calm and composed, looking refreshed."Grandpa, dinner time." Jane put down her chess piece. "Let’s get Westley to play with you after dinner, he plays better than me. Otherwise, it's just boring here with me."Calvin was in a good mood. "It's fine, I enjoy playing with anyone."As long as they were all around, safe, happy, and healthy, he was fine with

In the middle of it, Westley went outside to get some food to replenish Jordan.Jordan buried herself under the blanket, feeling extremely embarrassed.In the end, she had been the one to go back on her own words."Have something to eat."Westley pulled her out of the blanket, put his shirt on her, and carried her to the sofa.Jordan gave him a resentful look.Her pout clearly showed she was angry, but Westley only wanted to kiss her."Westley!"Jordan suddenly pushed him away. "You're so annoying."Westley handed her some cutlery. "Well, you can be mad at me all you want but you’ve got to eat something first."Jordan really was hungry. She hadn't eaten anything all morning and had used up a lot of energy.She turned her frustration into appetite.Westley ate a little too.Jordan's eyes darted around, hesitating to speak. "When you went downstairs earlier..."Westley knew what she wanted to ask, but pretended not to understand. "What do you mean?"Jordan glared at him. "
