Otherwise, the Frost Group wouldn't have ended up directly in Ryan's hands."What about you? Are you happy?" I looked up and asked hesitantly."In these three years of being married to you?" He forced a smile, sighed, and continued, "I'm very happy."His answer made me want to cry even more.Was that regret?Clearly, if it weren't for Jessica, we could have grown old together.On the way back, neither of us spoke. We silently understood that saying more wouldn't help.He couldn't truly change the situation, and I couldn't pretend everything was fine.It was better to let go, while we still weren't too repulsive of each other.With the short days and long nights of Autumn, through the car window, his figure was bathed in a golden light by the setting sun."I'll walk you up." When we reached the Lake Garden, he spoke before I could. I didn't refuse.We went upstairs together, standing at the door, I pursed my lips. "I'm home now, you should go back.""Alright." Ryan nodded li

Jack either didn't catch the implication, or he didn't want to dwell on the matter. He just smiled. "No big deal. Why don't you guys go wash your hands? Dinner is ready."Jack was also a great cook, and the table was filled with dishes that were great in looks, fragrance, and taste. It would make anyone's mouth water.Both Tom and Jane couldn't stop praising Jack.I couldn't help but compliment, "Jack, your dishes look amazing!""Go ahead and have a bite. See if it suits your taste."Jack brought out the last two dishes from the kitchen, and placed a plate of spicy shrimp in front of me, with a warm smile. "You should love this."I was a little surprised.Except for Jane, everyone assumed my taste was as bland as Ryan's. However, before I could say anything, Ryan chimed in coldly, "She can't handle spicy food. Although you were quite close during college, you still don't understand her taste...""Mr. Frost." Jane tried to defend me with a smile on her face. "Who have you been p

The two of them also prepared gifts for me. Jack also handed me an exquisite gift box. "Hope you like it.""Thank you, Jack," I thanked him with a smile.Seeing a delicately unique dress inside the box, I was a bit surprised and looked at him, "Did you design this?""Yeah, just this one." Jack smiled."Jack is so thoughtful!"After Jane finished praising them, she intentionally teased Ryan, "Mr. Frost, since you came to attend the housewarming party, I'm sure you brought a gift too, right?"I wanted to interrupt, but was stopped by Jane.Even before I stepped into the house, I didn't know they had prepared a housewarming party for me, so how could Ryan have prepared a gift in advance?Ryan fixed his dark eyes on me and reached into his suit pocket, taking out a velvet square box and placing it in front of me.He concealed the surge of emotions in his eyes, and the curve of his lips seemed shallow. "I couldn't find the opportunity to give it to you before, but it seems like now
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 26
Thinking back, I found such a thought ridiculous.On my wedding night, I was left alone. Several times on my birthday, my husband was absent. The gifts I longed for were given to others. Even on the day of my prenatal checkup, my husband went to accompany someone else.Now that we reached the point of divorce, he couldn't accept it when my friends came to throw me a housewarming party. I smirked and looked down at him. "If you don't leave, I'll call Jessica."He wouldn't be able to handle the situation if Jessica came over.Ryan suddenly tightened his grip around my waist, resting his forehead on my chest, his voice was hoarse. "Charlotte, I never wanted things to turn out like this, really." With him like this, my heart couldn't help but soften.At that moment when I wanted to speak, his phone, casually placed on the dining table, rang.The caller ID displayed "Jessica".Such a sight sent shivers down my back and I immediately became sober. I pushed him away. "You've got a ca

"Do you really want to thank me?" Jack walked to the car, pushed Tom into the back seat, leaned against the car, and looked at me with a smile and lowered eyes.I nodded. "Of course.""Then promise me, don't always say 'thank you' to me in the future." This remark had a slightly unusual flavor. Before I could figure out what he meant, he added with a smile, "It makes things too formal."I chuckled. "Alright, got it."He got into the car as well and then said, "I'm leaving, you should head back upstairs now."When I went upstairs, the living room was empty. Ryan wasn't there. I felt my heart sank for a moment. But just for a moment. Leaving silently was his style. It was probably another "urgent matter" from Jessica's side.Back in the bedroom, I gently patted Jane. "Jane, wake up. I'll help you change into pajamas so you can sleep more comfortably.""Mm." Jane moaned slightly, and upon seeing me, she reached out to hug me, letting me take off her top. She then murmured, "Charlot

Her words might have had some effect on me if she said them a while ago, but now that I had accepted facts like "Ryan had never had any feelings for me", I no longer had the urge to question her. I just looked at her calmly and said, "You seem to have everything under control, so why bother harassing me every day?"She came to my office early in the morning and made it seem like she was the wife and was interrogating the mistress. Seeing my indifferent reaction, Jessica became a little anxious. Without waiting for me to ask, she spoke triumphantly, "It's because of me."She leaned forward on my desk as if looking at a defeated opponent. "Charlotte, if it weren't for me, he wouldn't have married you! You wouldn't even have had the chance to set foot in their house!"After hearing those words, I clenched my fists and an indescribable feeling arose in my heart, causing it to race.She curved her red lips in satisfaction, and crossed her arms over her chest. "It was Grandpa who used

"My back hurts so much..." She nestled in Ryan's arms, crying as she complained, "I just asked about her progress at work, and she pushed me... Ryan, can't you just let her be the director? Everyone else supports her too. I really don't want to work in this kind of environment anymore."Listening to her, I couldn't help but admire her skill at making up lies. I almost burst out laughing, but then I met Ryan's scrutinizing gaze."Is that so?" His voice was icy, sending a chill down my spine.I chuckled self-deprecatingly. "If I say it's not true, would you believe me?""Ryan..."Jessica's eyes welled up with tears, her delicate fingers tugging at his collar. This suit was one I personally designed and tailored for him. It was a gift I gave him for Valentine's Day this year.He didn't answer my question. Instead, he just lowered his gaze to the woman in his arms, furrowing his brow. He seemed impatient but concerned as he said, "You're not a child. Crying like this after a fall? Le

I was startled by the sudden noise. Only then did I touch my ears. The blood had already dried and some red scabs came off. The touch brought back a twinge of pain to my ears.My ears were bleeding and I didn’t even notice.Jane patted my hand. "Why are you so stubborn? Doesn't it hurt?"With that, she took out an iodine cotton swab from her bag, tied my hair up, and carefully disinfected my ears. "How did this happen?""Jessica tried to pull my earrings off." I briefly explained the situation to her.Jane cursed angrily, "Who the hell does she think she is? I swear to god she’s a nosy bitch. She loves sticking her nose into other people’s businesses. She even wants to take things that don’t belong to her. What a thief.""Why do you always know how to curse people?" After Jane’s bombardment, my gloomy mood from earlier in the day lifted a little.Jane glared at me. "With a friend like you, I have to learn how to curse.""Oh."I waited for Jane to take care of my ears. The

"I have never sided with Westley. I have always stood by your side."Jane said, "Not trying anything is the same as supporting."Zachary suddenly remembered Westley's indifference to Jordan's life, watching coldly from the sidelines.It was indeed more hurtful than not caring or not knowing."You have a cousin..."He whispered a few words, "The paternity test on your side has come out, so he's gone to find Jordan.""I think Westley should have a good talk with him."Jane wasn't so optimistic. "If he doesn't even care about my biological sister, how could he be afraid of a cousin?""It's different," Zachary said. "Just wait and see.""But Jordan has already taken a flight back, right?"Jane suddenly noticed a flaw. "Where would the cousin find Jordan?""Anything could happen during such a long flight."Jane checked the time. Eight hours had already passed since Jordan had sent her the boarding message.It was nearly dawn here, while it should still be night where Jordan was

Westley's expression darkened a little. "You go ahead and continue the shoot. I'll leave now."After saying that, he really left.But Jordan didn't feel much relief.In the end, she still expressed her apology and returned to the country with Ross.Jasmine remained silent.The silence made Jordan ask first, "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"Jasmine shook her head.She had simply connected the events that had happened recently and the conversation between Jordan and Westley, and a complete picture emerged in her mind.So it turned out that Westley had done even worse things. No wonder Jordan just wanted to stay away from him, not even wanting to see him, even for just a moment."Ms. Hickey, you've worked hard."Jordan was stunned by her sudden hug.Her words were quite amusing."What's making you feel sentimental all of a sudden?"Jasmine didn't want to mention Westley and make Jordan unhappy.She shook her head and said, "Nothing. I was just thinking, I've summari

"I wish I could turn back time, go back, and wake up the version of myself who would like you! I only liked you. Is that such a heinous thing? Why do I have to suffer so much for it? We're already divorced, yet it's still never-ending. Do you have to force me to die before you'll let me go?"Jordan was crying so hard she could barely catch her breath. Westley looked at her with pain in his eyes and raised his hand, wanting to wipe away her tears.But he was suddenly shoved hard by Ross.He wasn't prepared and staggered back several steps.After being steadied by the Jax, he looked over.There was a trace of anger in his expression.But when his gaze fell on Ross, he was clearly taken aback.Ross was actually more anxious than him, frantically pulling out tissues to give to Jordan."Don't cry, Ms. Hickey. If you keep this up, Mrs. Collins will punish me."He didn't want to go to the Arctic anymore."I'll help you leave. Don't cry, it's fine. Mr. Howard won't take you. Don't be
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1162
Actually, Jane didn't need to say anything, Jordan wouldn't believe that Westley was sick either."I know, Jane, I'll head back right away."Jane couldn't be at ease and had already sent someone."Ross will help you leave. I'll send you his photo.""Alright, don't worry, Jane. I'll be fine."Jane was still uneasy. "Get back as soon as possible. Send me the flight details, and I'll meet you at the airport."Jordan didn't argue with her now, she was pregnant after all."Okay, Jane. I understand."After hanging up the phone, Jordan grabbed Jasmine's hand and walked.But she was stopped by Westley once again."Jordy, why won't you talk to me?"Jordan ignored him and kept walking forward.Westley grabbed her other hand."Jordy, what did I do wrong? Can you tell me? Should I go buy you some snacks now? Don't be angry."Jordan had tolerated enough from Westley.He just didn't love her, so she wanted to end this marriage, which never should have happened, in a dignified way.Hi

"You're pregnant now, so take good care of yourself, and we'll talk after you have the baby. During this period, I promise I won't let Jordy be harmed. How does that sound?"Jane responded better to soft persuasion than hard.It seemed like everyone knew about this.However, based on these words from Leanne, she seemed to have caught a very important piece of information.She glanced outside, looking at Zachary.She remained silent for a few seconds before speaking."Leanne, do you really consider me a friend?""Of course.""Then let me ask you this. Is Westley really sick?"There was a brief pause. Jane already had a sense of what was going on.And Zachary also heard this. His gaze met Jane's at that moment.It was calm but carried the potential for a storm.She said to Leanne, "Leanne, I'm tired. We'll talk another time."Leanne opened her mouth, but Jane interrupted. "Zachary, I'm tired."Zachary asked Leanne to leave and immediately got into the car, instructing the d

But they still hadn't figured out who their parents were.In this case, as Jordan's sister, she had the right to demand an explanation from them.Westley had kidnapped someone, which was definitely wrong."I won't speak for my son. If he's wrong, he's wrong. Jordy was like my own daughter, and when she's sad, I'm heartbroken too." Miranda sighed. "But we've already advised him. He's an adult, and we can't just lock him in the house. There are many things that need him to manage and handle for the Howard family."When it came to her own son, she could speak nicely, but the balance in her heart was still tilted.Jane didn't argue about this."If you, as parents, can't control your son and allow him to harm someone else's precious child, I don't mind sending him to prison. If it makes it to the trending news, don't blame me for embarrassing the Howard family."The three members of the Howard family simultaneously looked at Zachary.They saw him peeling an orange, cleaning off the

It was Lewis who had taken her to her room."Sorry, Ms. Hickey, the evening was lively, and Jasmine also had a couple of drinks."He emphasized, "She only had two drinks to join in the fun. We didn't force her to drink, and let her throw up."Jordan helped Jasmine to the bed and thanked Lewis.Lewis hurriedly said, "There’s no need. It's what I should do. Jasmine went out with us, so we had to ensure her safety.""Please rest now."Jordan nodded, thanked him again, and closed the door to her room.She asked Jasmine, "Can you wash up by yourself?""Yes, I can," Jasmine replied as she walked into the bathroom. "Ms. Hickey, I didn't drink too much.""I'm still very clear-headed."Jordan said, "Girls should always protect themselves when they're out. If you can avoid drinking, it's better not to drink.""Today I was just happy to meet my idol. I don't usually drink much.""I understand."After Jordan finished her work and had washed up, she climbed into bed and started looking

"I'll be honest with you, but don't get angry."As soon as Jane heard this, she understood.She proposed a hypothesis. "If he were diagnosed with a mental illness, could he be considered legally incompetent?"Zachary placed some food on her plate and said in a negotiating tone, "Can we... just let them handle it themselves?"Jane refused to eat the food. "Westley has already committed a crime. Are you suggesting that I let my own sister suffer harm and let her handle the issue with a criminal?""That's not what I meant...""You're still siding with Westley. Well, of course, she's not your biological sister, so how could you possibly care?"Zachary realized that the more he spoke, the worse it got.He had never intended to interfere in Westley's affairs.Who could have predicted that Jordan would turn out to be Jane's biological sister?Or that he would end up marrying Jane?"We promised to be honest with each other."Zachary sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, Westley

Ameca was huge.How could they run into each other like this?Jane asked again, "How many days will you be staying?"She had only received a message from Jordan saying she had landed safely for an overseas shoot.Other than that, Jordan hadn't mentioned much, and Jane hadn't asked.After all, it was her personal job—there was no need to interfere too much.But thinking about it now, she should've asked more questions.Jordan replied, "Three days. Today's shoot is almost over, so there are two more days left.""Alright, let me know when you're coming back. I'll pick you up.""No need to trouble yourself. I won't get lost. Just take care of yourself, rest well, and don't worry about me. I can take care of myself."Jane trusted Jordan's ability to manage her own life.Even before they had reunited as sisters, she had looked into Jordan's background and knew how she had made her way through life.But she didn't understand Westley, nor could she control him.He was a dangerous
