Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 28
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

It wasn't worth the trouble.Jane forced herself to calm down. "Alright then. Let's make the payment and leave. I don't want to see them."After making the payment, the salesperson led us to the front of the store to see the car.After being in repairs for so many days, all the traces of the car crash disappeared. It looked just like a brand-new car."Wait a sec. I need to use the bathroom."With that said, Jane rushed to the toilets.I smiled and decided to wait for her in the car.As soon as I got in, I heard someone order with a beautiful voice, "I want that car!"Whatever car she liked had nothing to do with me.I closed the door and planned on leaving as soon as Jane returned.What I didn't expect was that a salesperson came knocking on my window first.I lowered the window a little and asked impatiently, "What is it?""Hello, one of our customers wants to take a look at your car. Will that be alright?""I don't just want to take a look at it. I want to buy it," Jessi

I only realized how stupid I had been on the way to dinner.I was actually looking forward to Ryan speaking up for me when Jessica was asking me questions.For example, "Isn't it normal for her to use my money to buy things?" or "Does she need your permission to spend my money?"But what did Ryan say?He said, "Grandpa bought her the car."He used Grandpa as an excuse to shut Jessica up.But the car was a Valentine's present he bought me a while ago.When Jessica was making a fuss, he not only didn't recognize the car belonged to me, but also forgot how I got the car.Another possibility was that he knew how I got the car, but he didn't want Jessica to find out. He was actually quite nice to me.Was I really Mrs. Frost? Why couldn't I even our community assets? Why did I have to hide the truth in front of his previous lover?How could he have tried to comfort Jessica in a cold voice in front of me?"That's enough. You're in your 30s already, don't be so childish. You can jus

The MS Group was one of the top luxury brands in the clothing industry. It was the company that most designers wanted to go work for.Jack smiled. "That's right. I just got an offer.""It's more like you've just accepted the offer." Tom wasn't allowing Jack to lay low. "Before he came back to the country, the MS Group had been in contact with him. He had only just made up his mind recently."Not just Nancy, even I began to admire Jack. I said with a smile, "Looks like the University of Jelaston will soon put you on the front page of the university newspaper, Jack. You made them proud."Speaking of the university newspaper, Ryan would be on the front page most of the time. He had long graduated, but still, a lot of students still looked up to him.I felt that maybe he was supposed to be a star in the sky and I shouldn't have tried to keep him for myself."So you're deliberately celebrating Jack's enrollment into the MS Group?" asked Jane."That's right." Tom nodded. "Let's eat. W

I was a little taken aback by his words.Jack was even more attentive than I had thought.At the barbecue restaurant, the smell of some of the meat made me feel nauseous, but I managed to force myself not to throw up.I hadn't expected him to notice.I smiled faintly. "A little. But it's no big deal.""That's good, health comes first." Jack then said meaningfully, "Always remember to take care of yourself no matter what.""Okay." His words made me feel warm.But later I realized what his words meant.The car slowly entered the underground garage of the Lake Garden. Jack helped me out of the car, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right. I looked around but couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.As we were walking, a Maybach zoomed past. The driver seemed to be full of rage.I was startled by the sudden situation. I then subconsciously covered my belly as I took a step back. If it weren't for Jack holding me steady, I would have fallen.After making s

"Who?" I asked, feeling puzzled.He sneered. "Jack."I was rendered speechlessI frowned, genuinely unsure what he was thinking. "Ryan, are you here trying to get proof that I'm cheating on you?"It would be truly unreasonable if he was.His eyes darkened, his lips pressed thin, and he quietly uttered the words, "No, I'm not.""Then why are you here?"Ryan didn't answer. His long eyelashes cast shadows on his cheeks, exuding a desolate aura.The night breeze blew, sending chills down my back. I then said helplessly, "If you're not going to say anything, I'm going to close the door."He then said after a long pause, "I've missed you."My heart skipped a beat.I was completely gobsmacked.He had said many flirtatious things to me before, mostly teasing, never heartfelt.A lot of the time, I had hoped he would say something from the bottom of his heart.When we were in bed, I would wrap my arms around his neck and say, "I love you. I've missed you."But all I got was in ret

The fireworks were dazzling and brilliant.Westley looked up in a certain direction.At the moment the fireworks bloomed, a figure appeared in the window of that place.Jordan couldn’t sleep because of Westley’s injury.As she tossed and turned in bed, a sudden bright light appeared in front of the window.She walked over to the window, opened it, and saw the fireworks bursting in the night sky.There seemed to be a few figures on the beach.But Westley was tall enough that she could spot him at a glance.At that moment, she forgot to watch the fireworks.It was only when Westley raised his hand and pointed upward that she looked up.She realized that the fireworks formed a few words.“I’m sorry, Jordan.”“Happy birthday.”Jordan had originally planned to spend her birthday with Nathan and Jane.But when she was brought over by Westley, she completely forgot about her birthday.She glanced at the time, and it was exactly midnight.Her birthday had begun.The night sky

Jordan had eaten and drunk enough and was about to return to her room.Westley called out to her."Wait a moment."Jordan ignored him and kept on walking.But Westley grabbed her arms and she was pulled back.She lost her balance and fell into the man's arms.As she fell, she instinctively reached out to support herself.She felt something change under her hand.Jordan jumped up as if she had been burned.She forgot there was a grill nearby, and as she was about to fall into it, she was pulled away by a force.She only heard a series of cracking sounds, and she landed on something soft but firm.When she looked closely, it was Westley's chest. She was in his arms, and his tall frame was completely shielding her.Before she could react, Buck and the others arrived.The area was crowded."Quick, put out the fire!""Call a doctor. Don’t move Mr. Howard. Help Mrs. Howard up."Jordan was stunned as she was pulled up.It was then that she saw the scene on the ground.The gr

Frank took the soup from her hands and drank it in a few gulps.Then he pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately.It had been several days since they had been close like this.The heat built up quickly.By the time Charlotte reacted, she was already lying on the bed.She covered his mouth and gently pushed him away a little."Let's finish talking about the important things.""This is the important thing," Frank said as he moved her hand away and pressed it on top of her head. He bent down and started unbuttoning her blouse."Frank..."Charlotte's voice was broken by his actions.After several days of separation, his movements were obviously more intense.She couldn't hold back, and the corners of her eyes filled with tears, as the wave of emotions overwhelmed her...Zachary set the food on the dining table and went to the bedroom to carry Jane out.But Jane wanted to walk by herself, and Zachary helped her sit down.Jane picked up her cutlery and started eatin

"Mr. Jackson, what are you talking about? Westley isn’t a fool. Since he managed to take Jordan from your turf in Impelia, it shows he was well-prepared. This preparation probably started a long time ago, and once he found out you were Jordan's cousin, he just sped up the process."Nathan caught the key point. "So, you and Zachary both guessed that Westley would take Jordan and make all the necessary preparations, but you didn’t say a word?"Frank leaned against the doorframe lazily and said, "I don’t know, I’m not close to Westley. As for Zachary, I’m not sure either. Recently, he’s been too busy with his wife and hasn’t been drinking with me anymore."Nathan didn’t believe him, but didn’t say much.Westley taking Jordan from him was his fault.When he was younger, he couldn’t protect his cousin from being taken away.Now, even with power in his hands, he still couldn’t do anything.He had to ask others for help."You keep searching abroad, I’ll assist you domestically." Fra

On the small table beside them, there were several bottles cluttered around.There were no labels on them.Jordan was cautious and didn’t drink immediately. She picked up a bottle, sniffed it to make sure there was no alcohol smell before inserting the straw and sipping slowly.Westley lit a cigarette, biting it at the corner of his mouth. He flipped the lamb skewers over and sprinkled them with cumin.Watching her unnecessary actions, he laughed. "It doesn’t really matter if you’re drunk or not. On my turf, if I want to do something, do you think you can resist?"Jordan paused.She suddenly remembered that the bet wasn’t clearly defined.“Westley, you said that if I’m moved, but before I’m moved, you can’t do anything out of line. You’re clear about that, right?”Westley handed her the grilled lamb skewer and flicked the ash off his cigarette.He glanced at her and said deliberately, "Wrong."Jordan took a big bite of the lamb skewer.She couldn’t help but exclaim, "So deli

Jordan finished her meal and was taken away by Westley.They took a helicopter and then transferred to a ship.In the end, she had no idea where they were.The journey was bumpy, and after days and nights, she was physically and mentally exhausted.Yet, she refused to say a word to Westley.She buried herself under the blankets.Everything she could say or do, she had already done.Now, she could only pray for heaven to open its eyes and make Westley a decent person, letting her go back."How about a bet?"Westley pulled the blanket off, helping her sit up."There are still some days before Jane gives birth.""We’ll forget our grudges for now. If, during this time, you can develop feelings for me, then you’ll lose, and we’ll remarry. If you don’t fall for me, I’ll let you go back."Jordan's mind was racing.She felt like Westley wouldn’t let her go so easily.But there was no flaw in his words.For her, it still seemed to give her an advantage.After all, she only felt

Jane said lightly, “Do you think Westley would let you find him easily?”“No, but if we keep chasing him, we will eventually find him.” Zachary brought the food to her. “Eat something.”Jane refused his feeding, took the plate and ate by herself.Zachary then placed some more food in front of her.Jane said, “You don’t need to take care of me. I can eat by myself. You should eat too.”Those words made Zachary feel a sense of relief.It seemed she wasn’t angry, nor was she blaming him.“This matter was indeed my oversight. I thought that since Jordan was with your cousin in Impelia, Westley wouldn’t be able to reach her. But I never expected that he would be so bold and take Jordan away directly.”Jane understood. “You want me to put the blame on my cousin, right?”Zachary replied without changing his expression, “How could that be? This matter is entirely my responsibility.”Jane didn’t say anything, only remarking, “When I give birth, I want to see Jordan.”Zachary reassure

Westley handed her the phone.“Tell him yourself.”Jordan was surprised the moment she took the phone, but then she realized something didn’t feel right.He gave it to her so easily...She snapped, “You did this on purpose!”Westley didn’t deny it.Jordan didn’t care much about that anymore and immediately dialed Zachary’s number.When Zachary saw the caller ID, his right eyelid twitched violently.Frank glanced at him. “Why aren’t you answering?”Zachary sighed in frustration. “Stop watching the show, you answer it.”Frank raised his hands. “My wife and your wife are on the same page.”Frank’s position was the same as Zachary’s. He didn’t dare answer the phone either.He pursed his lips as he didn’t have the right to criticize Frank.This phone felt like something that neither of them wanted to have anything to do with.In the end, Zachary still answered it.“Westley, you only have one chance...”“It’s me, Zachary.”Zachary thought something was terribly wrong. “Give

Westley was indeed cunning, but when Zachary said he couldn’t guess Westley’s plan, that was purely pretending to be ignorant.Even he knew that intercepting a plane wouldn’t work.Since Nathan was pursuing so closely, if Westley wanted to take someone away, he must have prepared multiple plans.For example, parachuting mid-way.But he was enjoying watching the drama and didn’t expose it.“I do have some responsibility in this matter.” Nathan was always someone who took responsibility for his actions. “But the responsibility of not saving Jordan falls on you.”Zachary felt like his head was going to explode.He could roughly guess where Westley had parachuted.But that place had many landing spots, and it wasn’t something that could be found in just a day or two.Moreover, since Westley dared to take Jordan away from Nathan, he must have made detailed plans.Knowing they were searching, he would definitely change locations.This was a tug-of-war.It was hard to explain to J
