He was very swift indeed.In less than half an hour, the vegetables were washed and chopped. However, despite my request for roast potatoes, it seemed like he intended to make chips.I didn’t have a problem with that chips were tasty too.I was idly scrolling through my phone on the sofa when he came out wearing an apron, looking quite out of his usual high and mighty self. He scratched his head and said, "Well, do you want to take a shower first?"I was puzzled. "I'd like to eat first and then shower.""Go ahead and shower. You'll feel refreshed and enjoy your meal more," he sincerely advised.I didn't know what his angle was.However, it wasn't a matter of principle. Since I was at his place, I decided to compromise. I went to the bedroom, closed the door, grabbed some clothes, and headed to the bathroom. By the time I finished my shower and came out, the meal was ready. Frank, who seemed to have been busy with something in the kitchen, looked a bit flustered when he

He saw through my thoughts. "I want the truth.""I need some time to think things through," I said honestly.He nodded in acknowledgment, "That's fair. Take your time."The next day, Frank and I planned to meet with Flint, who had previously been taken away by Mrs. Shaw. Frank said that the person had revealed some information. He needed me to hear it in person and decide whether to believe it."Otherwise, if it comes from me, it might sound like I'm stirring up trouble and ruining my image of being someone on the side of justice," he said.Just as I was about to change clothes and do my makeup, the doorbell suddenly rang.I checked my phone, but there were still about two hours until our scheduled meeting.With a smile, I got up and went to open the door. I was stunned when I saw who was standing outside.I greeted politely, "Mr. Smith."At that moment, Mr. Smith was completely different from the imposing presence he had the night before in the hospital. He resembled a friend
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 373
He was already certain, and with the conversation having reached this point, I had no other choice. But I wanted to be selfish just this once.I got up. "Mr. Smith, if you can't do it, then I don't think I can either."I didn't want to make decisions for Frank under the guise of doing what was best for him. But no matter what he chose, I would respect it.Mr. Smith's gaze became sharp. "Right now he's infatuated and impulsive, willing to give up everything for you. What about later? After the initial excitement wears off and he falls from his high perch, have you thought about three years, five years, or ten years from now?"I suddenly found it difficult to breathe.Mr. Smith sneered. "When he sees his mother and sister suffering because of his love, will he regret it and blame you as the stumbling block?"I had to admit, experience had its merits. Every word struck right at the heart of the matter."Whether you are Mrs. Frost, Ms. Wilson, or Ms. Shaw, I just hope you can see th

“Mrs. Smith Collapses from Emotional Distress”“Second Son of the Smith Family Joins the Smith Group”“Second Son of the Smith Family and Mr. Frost”“Frank's Position is Challenged”“Second Son of the Smith Family Secretly Contacts RF Group”By the evening, the news had been released piece by piece.When I saw the last one, I dialed Ryan's number. "Is this your doing?"There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line before he sneered and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Which part are you asking about? The fake daughter of the Shaw family or the mess with the Smith family?""You know what I'm asking about.""Whatever you say."His voice was cold as the sound of a lighter flicking on came through. "Charlotte, come back and be Mrs. Frost. I can help you with the Shaw family's issues and the Smith family's problems."I was momentarily stunned. "The Smith family's issues?""Frank's issues."He seemed to take a drag of his cigarette, his voice sounding husky. "Do you th

I suddenly stood up on my tiptoes, and threw myself into his embrace. My arms wrapped tightly around his waist."Such enthusiasm?" He seemed pleased, rubbing the back of my head. "Have you thought about what you needed to think about?""I have." As I spoke, my gaze swept over to Ryan, who was standing at the door with a stern expression.Before I could say anything, Ryan's well-defined fingers tapped lightly on the door. "Honey, it's time to go home.""I'll handle it." Frank patted my head, gently releasing me and turning to leave."Frank!" I called out to him. He seemed to sense something, his lean body stiffening slightly, but he still responded, "Yeah? What's up?"I dared not look into his eyes. Summoning all my strength, I said as casually as possible, "He's here to pick me up."He pursed his lips, but he wasn’t smiling. His tone bewildered. "What did you say?""I've had enough fun. I need to go back to being Mrs. Frost." I shrugged nonchalantly. "Frank, let's go our separa
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 376
Frank had once again become the flamboyant and unpredictable Mr. Smith just like before.Meanwhile, Ryan had used his connections to find a reclusive traditional medicine expert, who came out of retirement to check Grandma's pulse and attempt to totally cure her. Grandma's coma was related to the poison affecting her heart and the emergency treatment at the hospital only addressed the symptoms, not the cause.That day, after the company gathering, Megan seemed to intentionally lag behind the other employees, walking beside me with great caution. She then asked cautiously, "Charlotte, did you ever like my brother?"I knew she was inquiring on behalf of Frank.But Mr. Smith had warned me over the phone yesterday.I smiled and said, "No, never.""What do you mean never?"Ryan walked over and stood tall in front of me. "Honey, I'm here to pick you up."Lately, he had been acting like the perfect gentleman.He had returned to his role of a devoted husband.He would drop me off at
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 377
My head buzzed for a moment and my mind went blank.Although Frank seemed disorganized, he was actually very measured and strategic in everything he did. The fact that Megan was in a panic meant that it was likely a major issue.I quickly turned around and looked at Jane, who had followed me out and looked anxious. "Jane, what happened? You know, don't you?"Her behavior had been off when she entered my office earlier. Now it seemed clear she was hiding the news about Frank."Charlotte..."Jane licked her lips, looking uncertain about whether she should speak.The more hesitant she was, the more scared I became.I grabbed her arm. "Tell me, Jane, I'm begging you, please tell me..."She was still hesitating.I knew she was afraid I wouldn't be able to handle it."If you don't tell me, I'll ask someone else." I picked up my phone and started dialing as I headed outside. "If no one tells me, I'll go to Jeswood myself to find out."Megan didn't answer the phone.I tried calling

I had never seen him before. But I had heard Ryan speak with him on the phone twice. They seemed to have a life-and-death friendship, and Ryan trusted him and Ian."Alright, do as you wish." I nodded thoughtfully. "We should go and get the divorce certificate the day after tomorrow. Please remember to arrange the time."His dark eyes flickered, and he gave a self-deprecating smile with a hint of bitterness. "Are you counting the days until you're done with me?""Something like that," I answered without hesitation.Ryan's long lashes cast shadows over his eyes, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line. "Fine, I'll do as you say.""It's not about doing as I say." I corrected him. "Ryan, this is something we've already agreed on. There's no such thing as one side following the other."He looked at me quietly, and after a short pause, he sighed. "Was I always like this in front of you?""Like what? Do you mean indifferent, perfunctory, or hypocritical?" I took a sip of co

"Jane, don't argue with Zachary. This time, I am staying here voluntarily," said Jordan."I’ve made a bet with Westley, and there will be a resolution in the end."Jane nodded. "I can let you handle this matter yourself, but you have to promise me that you won’t let yourself get hurt, and you won’t just keep sacrificing yourself. If it becomes unbearable, give it up. I’ll always be here to support you."Jordan nodded. "Okay."The two sisters chatted for a long time, and only when Jane started to feel sleepy did they end the video call.Jordan handed the phone to Buck and closed the door to her room.Buck was left standing there.He felt like he had been completely abandoned, as if everything around him had fallen apart.Anyway, as a sandwich in the middle, he was already crushed, so it didn’t matter anymore.For several days, Jordan got up to eat, and the food was always food prepared by the chef.She hadn’t seen Westley around.She couldn’t really say how she felt. She just

"He is faking his psychological illness," Jordan rebutted.Even if he had one, it had nothing to do with her.Even she didn’t have any psychological issues, how could someone with such a strong mind like Westley have any psychological issues?He shouldn’t blame her for everything.Having seen enough, she turned around and walked away.But Carter called her back. "He once took good care of you, and you're going to be this heartless?"Jordan wasn’t familiar with Carter. He was usually a man of few words with a cold personality.If she greeted him, he wouldn’t respond. If she talked too much, she might get an icy look in return.She really didn’t expect that one day, he would try to mediate between her and Westley."You should focus more on your own matters," she said.His own love life was a mess, so what right did he have to interfere in hers?Jordan’s emotions were written all over her face, she didn’t hide them.Carter could guess how she was feeling just by looking at her

Jane didn’t care about Westley. Even if he was feeling it now, it was too late for regrets.If he hadn’t acted the way he did, Jordan wouldn’t have suffered so much.Moreover, he had once ignored her cries for help, so now he shouldn’t blame Jordan for his injuries.“How’s my sister?” she asked.Roy replied, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Collins, Ms. Hickey is doing fine. Except for the lack of freedom, there are no other restrictions.”“When can I have a video call with her?”Roy thought for a moment. “Since Mr. Howard is now delirious, I can make the arrangements.”“Thank you,” said Jane.“It’s no trouble, it’s my job.”After hanging up the phone, Jane looked at Zachary and asked, “What do you think?”Zachary moved the phone a little farther away to avoid radiation.After finishing the massage, he helped her lie down and said, “I’m thinking what you’re thinking.”Jane gave him a sidelong glance. “You’re slick.”Zachary smirked and bent down to kiss her forehead.“Get some rest.”

"Mrs. Howard—"Buck watched helplessly as Jordan jumped into the sea.Before he could rush over, a figure was even faster than him."Sir!"Westley dived into the water, found Jordan, and dragged her to the shore.When Jordan was pulled onto the shore, she was still a bit dazed.Wasn't she just swimming? Why was there so much fuss?Buck gestured for people to bring a stretcher, lifted Westley onto it, and hurried back.Buck also called for the maids to help Jordan back.Jordan wiped her face, pushed the maid aside, and twisted the water out of her hair. "What happened?"Buck was anxious to check on Westley, but he couldn’t stop watching Jordan, worried she might jump into the sea again and trying to think of other ways to prevent it."Mr. Howard was saving you.""Why?" Jordan was confused. "I didn’t drown. What’s the need to save me?"Buck recalled what he had seen earlier. It seemed like... swimming?"Weren’t you... jumping into the sea?""Yes." Jordan didn’t notice Buck

"Nathan, you should head back and deal with your own matters. Let's not interfere with Jordan's matters anymore."Nathan didn’t expect Jane to say this. He paused for a moment before speaking. "You know better than I do what Westley has done. How can we just ignore it? Jordan is still young and hasn’t experienced much in terms of relationships. She lacks experience, what if she falls again..."Jane knew what he was talking about and comforted him. "Don’t worry. Jordan may have experienced little in terms of relationships, but she’s not a foolish girl. She knows how to handle things."Nathan asked, "Is it because there’s something Westley knows?""No, it’s because we can't let Westley continue making a scene. This matter still needs to be handled by the person involved."Nathan didn’t say anything more and told Jane not to worry. When it was close to her delivery, he would come back.Jane agreed and hung up the phone.She threw the phone onto the counter and hugged Zachary from b

Charlotte raised her hand and gently patted Jane’s shoulder."I understand, after all, she's your sister. But I think Jordan is very smart and capable, she can take care of herself. You can worry, but at the same time, take care of your own health. Then, when she comes back, you can love her properly."Jordan walked around the island.There was a helipad on the mountain with two helicopters.Out at sea, there was a large cruise ship docked.But she didn’t know how to pilot any of them, so there was no way to escape.In the end, she decided to just accept things as they were.If there was a problem, she would deal with it. If not, she’d wait."Mrs. Howard, Jasmine is looking for you."When Jordan returned to the villa, Buck handed her a phone.Hearing Jasmine’s name, she took it."Jasmine.""I'm relieved you're okay," said Jasmine, letting out a sigh of relief, then apologizing. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have drunk so much.""It’s not your fault."Since Westley had a plan to

She got up just around noon.After thinking for a moment, she decided to go see Westley.Westley wasn't in the bedroom, so she went downstairs to ask the staff.The servant pointed toward the kitchen, and she walked over, finding Westley cutting vegetables.A strip of bandages was wrapped around his exposed wrist.His pale lips and exhausted eyes suggested he was still in poor condition.Yet, he was cooking?Jordan pressed her lips together, her sleep had been poor, and her face didn’t look good either.She stood in place for a few seconds, then turned and walked away.If he didn’t take care of his own body, what business was it of hers?Westley glanced over but didn’t call her, continuing his task.Buck watched the whole scene, worried about Westley’s health, he was still running a fever.“Sir, you should rest. Let me arrange for someone to cook, and I’ll bring it up to you later. And Mrs. Howard... probably won’t care about you... You should take care of your health. Othe

Charlotte nodded. “So does unhygienic mean better taste?”Jane directly spoke to her belly, "Son, you have to treat your mother-in-law well in the future. Mommy won't be able to back you up. Mommy’s useless..."Charlotte raised her hand and poked her forehead. "Alright, stop the act.""You're even bringing the child up. We still don’t know if it's a boy."Jane said, "I want to arrange a marriage alliance with you. My child can sense his mother’s feelings and will surely fulfill his mother's wishes.""That's nonsense." Charlotte went out to buy what she wanted to eat.As soon as she sat in the car, she received a call from Frank."Is Mr. Smith slacking off again?"Frank chuckled. "I’m calling my wife. Is that not allowed anymore?"Charlotte had driven herself. She turned on the air conditioning and was thinking about going shopping. "I’ve got to go now. I'll be home tonight."Frank heard the sound of the engine and asked, "Did you go out?"Charlotte snorted, "You should know

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
