Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 407
Alana, unable to resist, said, "You've probably had a tough time these past two years too, haven't you?"I was taken aback. "How did you know?""I guessed." She smiled helplessly, appearing like a thoughtful older sister. "Although we haven't interacted much, I can tell you're not the kind of woman who plays both sides.""Giving up on him back then must have been unavoidable, right?" It was a question, but her tone was certain.I wasn't surprised that she could guess this.Alana was the type who, despite seeming carefree, was actually very perceptive and attentive to details. In short, the Smith family seemed to be quite perceptive people.I had no reason to lie to her, so I nodded and admitted, "Yes, Frank's father came to find me. And then, Ryan… also promised that if I went back with him, he would help Frank.""You've had a hard time."Alana sounded a bit rueful, "It's a pity that Luke used such dirty tactics, almost causing Frank to suffer a setback. Actually, he did suff

She softened her gaze and asked, "And you? How is your depression…""I'm off medication now." I smiled. "I found a psychologist in Frankes through a friend, and I've been receiving treatment there for the past two years. The results have been quite good."At least, even when I recall past events or see people from back then, I no longer panic, tremble, or have suicidal thoughts.After returning to Jelaston, the night I unexpectedly saw Ryan at the hotel, my sleep had still been fairly good."That's great." Alana sighed in relief, glanced at the time, and said, "I should head to the airport now. I'll find a chance to explain things to him and give him a psychological preparation."She stood up, pointed to the room where Danny was, and said helplessly, "As for my son, you might need to take care of him a bit more during this time. Frank doesn't have the patience for him.""It's fine. I like kids too." I smiled as I walked her to the door. "Since Danny is still at home, I won't see

I was surprised. "So soon? When did you arrive in Jelaston?""This afternoon." Jack laughed. "Do you want to go out for dinner or eat at home? Do you need me to bring anything?""Hold on a moment." I moved the phone away, asked Danny quietly, "Sweetie, do you want to eat at home or go out tonight?""I want to eat the food made by Charlotte!" Danny answered instinctively, but then seemed to think of something and quickly added, "Hmm, never mind. I don’t want to go out, so can we just order takeaway? I can still treat you to dinner!"I brought the phone back to my ear and smiled. "Jack, you don't need to bring anything. Just come over."Jack nodded.After hanging up, I pinched Danny's soft cheek and asked, "You just said you want to taste my cooking, right? Why don't you want to now?""Uncle warned me.""Warned you about what?""Uncle said…" The little one mumbled, "Not to cause you any trouble. If you gets tired, he will go and defeat Superman!""Defeat Superman?""Yeah!"Da

Danny looked up at me. "Charloote, how do you spell 'Uncle'?""U-N-C-L-E, got it?""Yeah."After a moment, he looked up again. "How do you spell 'home'?""H-O-M-E."Just as I finished speaking, the doorbell rang.I got up to answer the door and, looking outside, was both surprised and delighted, "Dilan!""Woof woof woof!"A white Samoyed jumped onto me, rubbing against me enthusiastically.I was overjoyed and turned to Jack, "Jack, I was just thinking about when to have Dilan shipped back to the country, and you've brought him over for me.""You're used to him. Having him around is good for you.""Thank you!" I looked at him gratefully. "Without you, my recovery wouldn't have been so quick."He teased, "Aren't you going to invite me in?""Please, come in!"I stepped back, and Dilan stayed close to me, showing his affection.As I led Jack to the living room, I noticed that Danny was no longer on the sofa.I looked around and finally stopped at the bathroom door, where I
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 411
Danny was the first to react, sliding off the sofa with agility and running to open the door, "Un... Thank you, sir!"The takeaway I ordered had arrived.I went over to take it, closed the door again, and patted Danny's little head. "Do you miss your uncle?""Uh… No." Danny shook his head. "I don't miss him. I just want to be with you. Charlotte, can I sleep with you tonight?""Only if your uncle agrees." I took his hand and led him to the dining area, then turned to Jack. "Jack, I ordered from a local restaurant in Jelaston. Come and try it.""Alright." Jack was not picky and would eat anything.As he moved to sit next to me, Danny climbed onto a chair from behind him, patted his waist, and said cutely, "Sir, can you sit on the other side? I want to sit next to Charlotte."Jack looked down at him, pinched his cheek, and said, "Okay."The meal, consisted of five dishes and the atmosphere was quite relaxed.Danny was very well-behaved. Given a spoon, he could manage his small p

Frank was quite unreasonable.I looked at him and said, "Stop making a fuss."As Jack mentioned, whether it was during college or two years ago, he was the one who helped me through it. If he hadn't saved me two years ago, gone to great lengths to find me a doctor, and introduced me to teachers, helping me achieve a sense of accomplishment in my career, I wouldn't have recovered from depression so quickly.I couldn't repay him in terms of feelings, but I should remember his kindness. Moreover, Jack had specially brought Dilan over for me today.Frank seemed to ignore what I said, not loosening his grip at all. I felt helpless and heard Jack say, "It's okay. You stay and have dinner with them."With that, he changed his shoes, turned, and left.As the door closed, I felt a pang of guilt. I suddenly pulled away from Frank's hand and said, "Are you satisfied now?""Pretty satisfied." Frank scrutinized me, his meaning unclear. "Are you angry?"Considering Danny was present and his

My eyes were slightly misty, and my heart ached. For a moment, I thought about just laying everything bare. If it had any impact on his condition, I would face it with him. It would be better than him constantly pondering and thinking I'm an unfaithful person.I shook my head. "No, Frank, these past two years I…""Forget it." Frank's smile was shallow, with an unmistakable tone of mockery. Yet, the corners of his eyes were red. "Charlotte, I shouldn't have had any expectations from you."His words were too harsh.I widened my eyes, trying to hold back the tears, and forced a semblance of relief. "If you say so."After all, in the past two years, despite my efforts to find out about him, I hadn't received any news.Like a passing shadow, it was as if nothing had ever happened.I didn't need to tell him about everything I had done. In his eyes, I am that indifferent and ungrateful person. As soon as he was rumored to be dead, I immediately moved on and found happiness with someo

"Yes." Alana nodded. "My friend has met Yasmin a couple of times at events and managed to add her on WhatsApp and followed her on Twitter. She mentioned that last year, Yasmin seemed to have posted something on Twitter.""What kind of post?""Yasmin's Tweets are only visible for six months, but the general gist was something like a blessing from heaven. She doesn't remember the exact details, but the photo showed Yasmin with a young woman, looking to be in her 20s.""Blessing?" Frank's gaze focused, and he sent over a photo. "Have your friend check if the girl in the photo is the same person.""Sure." Alana quickly sent the photo to her friend and then reported back to Frank. "Yes, the girl in your photo is the same person on Yasmin's Twitter.""Charlotte!" While I was lost in thought on the sofa, a soft, cute voice brought me back to reality. Danny peeked out, looking a bit shy. "I forgot that I don't have any fresh clothes.""I'll go find some for you."I was now used to him c

Knock knock—There was a knock at the door.Zachary stood up to open it.Raymond handed him a chicken pizza.He sensed that the atmosphere wasn’t quite right and, gathering some courage, she asked, "Sir, you didn’t have anything for dinner. Should I have the hotel bring something over?"Zachary nodded and mentioned a few dishes.Raymond agreed and went to instruct the hotel.He happened to run into Ross on his way back and they chatted."I have no idea what Miss Greenwood might want. Mr. Collins doesn’t even know what he likes to eat himself, but he remembers what she likes."Ross, eating a sandwich, said, "Doesn’t Mr. Collins like roast chicken?"He remembered that when Miss Greenwood brought food to the Mr. Collins’s house last time, she had mentioned it.Raymond shot him a look. "You’re a blockhead. That’s what Miss Greenwood likes. Now, the things that Mr. Collins like are because they’re what Miss Greenwood likes."Ross blinked. "Oh."Raymond was rendered speechless.

Jane said, "This is not something you should be doing.""I caused the injury, so I should be the one to handle it.""I'll do it myself!"Zachary held her hands, "You can't see the injury, you have long nails as well. What if you hurt yourself again? I think I should apply the medicine."Jane felt helpless."Zachary, I’ll just ask you one thing, can you understand what I’m saying?""I’ve already ordered pizza. It’ll be delivered soon."‘As expected, he doesn’t understand what I said,’ thought Jane.Jane was no match for Zachary in terms of strength or words, so she ended up crying.Zachary stopped.Jane immediately broke free from his hands and sat on the other side of the bed."Do you only feel happy when you see me in pain?"Zachary pursed his lips. "No.""Then why do you insist on forcing me to do things I don't want to do? I’m a person, not some item that you can do whatever you want to.""Is that how you see me?" Zachary looked at her, his eyes darkened slightly. "I l

"I was just handling some matters, but I can't tell you. Please understand."Jane seemed to believe him and nodded. "I see."Raymond also nodded. "That's right."Jane smiled. "You were handling matters, but what about the others?""They also have their own matters to deal with.""So..." Jane’s gaze suddenly became sharp. "You all went off to work, but there's no one guarding the hotel entrance? Aren’t you worried that while he’s in bed with me, his enemies might come and kill him? After all, the bed is when a man is most vulnerable. You’re a man, so you should understand that, right?"For a moment, Raymond seemed distracted, as if he had seen his Mr. Collins casually asking him what mistake he had made.Then, with a cold tone, he would be sent off to Afrealia, just like Roy.The more you say, the more mistakes you make. He stopped explaining and simply said."Miss Greenwood, it’s not safe outside. You should stay in the hotel and wait for Mr. Collins."Jane didn’t believe the

He placed the pillow behind her waist and asked gently, "What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone prepare it."Jane glared at him and said, "Get out!"Zachary took her hand and said, "There’s a banquet tomorrow. Come with me."Jane pulled her hand back and replied coldly, "You’re really sick.""Yes, and you’re the reason I”m sick."Jane raised her hand, intending to hit him. "Get out!"Zachary grabbed her wrist and smiled.Jane felt that he was seriously ill and decided it was better to just leave.But as soon as she lifted the blanket, a cold wind blew, and she quickly pulled it back up."Turn around!"Her teeth were clenched in anger, wishing she could bite him.Zachary's gaze slid over her body. "What are you hiding?""I..."Jane covered his mouth. "Don’t be such a pervert."Zachary held her hand. "The banquet tomorrow has to do with the purpose of your trip. Are you really not going?""How do you know what I came here for?"Zachary didn’t answer, just looked at he

Annie saw the red marks on his neck as he moved.There was also a bite mark on his Adam's apple.Both marks told her of the wildness he had shared with Jane just moments ago.The thing she feared most had happened."And not even a day apart," Zachary said again, his voice was cold enough to send shivers down one’s spine.Annie met his sharp gaze, instinctively taking a step back.But then she felt it was wrong and moved forward to stand in front of him."What are you saying? I don’t understand," she said, reaching out to grab his arm.Zachary turned sideways to avoid her, and Ross immediately restrained Annie, kicking her in the knee and forcing her to kneel on the ground."Zachary!"Annie had never been so humiliated before.Since childhood, everyone had always revolved around her.She was given everything she wanted.Without speaking, people would rush to her, handing her things that were close to her heart.Zachary was no different, he had been delivered to her by her

"I had wanted to repay you before, but you refused. Turns out, you were saving it for such a situation. Zachary, is it fun to fool me around?"Zachary lifted his head, and his dark eyes were filled with deep desire.He had been restraining himself, and the veins on his arm were bulging.But this time, he wanted to ask her for a favor."Am I really so unworthy in your eyes?"It wasn’t that he was completely unacceptable, but after all, he had previously forced her against her will."You can’t have lost contact with your subordinates.""Nelana isn’t my turf. There are people here who don’t want me here."As for his business matters, Jane didn’t want to know or analyze anything.She simply said, "Anyway, I’m not suited to help you solve the current problem. If you want, you can get some cold water, and I’ll go buy some medicine for you."The corners of Zachary’s eyes drooped slightly, and he looked almost pitiful."Is it really that hard to help me?"Jane nodded. "I think we’r

Before Jane finished speaking, she watched as Zachary slowly stood up on his own.But then he suddenly leaned towards her.She quickly held him up.Zachary rested his head on her shoulder, his breath hot and heavy against her neck, so hot it felt alarming."Wait, weren't the people around you supposed to be sticking with you at all times? How did you end up like this, all alone?"She heard the man's voice, weak and faint."Take me back to the hotel..."Jane was really at her wit's end.He didn't even tell her the name of the hotel. How was she supposed to know where to take him?In the end, with no other choice, she reached into his pocket to find his phone.She searched both side pockets of his pants, but there was no phone.He was only wearing a white shirt, no coat.That meant his phone wasn't on him.No wonder he hadn't contacted his subordinates.But that didn't make sense either—his subordinates were supposed to be with him at all times.Before she could figure it

"People are really into these things now. I often see them on live streams," said Jane.Dominic poured her a cup of barley tea. "The houses people want aren’t just any ordinary houses."Jane knew buying a house wasn't easy. It had taken her some time to secure her little place.If it weren't for Charlotte helping her out, she probably wouldn't have gotten it so quickly."Don’t worry. If I like what I see this time, when I go back and combine it with our brand, we'll promote it. You’ll be able to make money and buy a house.""That sounds good. I know how influential your brand is."The two of them chatted happily in the private room.In the room next door, however, the atmosphere was cold and tense.Annie, seemingly unaware, picked up some food for Zachary and even peeled an apple for him."I grew up in Nelana. I have lung issues, so I’m not really suited to Jeswood’s weather.""This restaurant has been around for almost 100 years. It’s a Nelana specialty. Try this, the apples

At the hospital.After confirming that everything was fine, Zachary immediately went to the airport.Frank glanced at the time. "Leaving overnight?"Zachary nodded, a look of exhaustion between his brows.Frank took Charlotte and left the hospital with him, only to see two cars.He asked, "Is Annie going with you?"Zachary nodded again.Frank was confused. "What kind of game is this?""Let's go."Zachary didn't answer, opened the car door, and bent down to sit inside.After the two cars drove off, Charlotte asked, "Last night, did you interfere too much?"Frank touched his chin. "I shouldn't have...""Shouldn't have what?""Can't I tell who he likes?"The two of them went home to pack and then went to their respective companies.Charlotte noticed that Jane's dark circles under her eyes couldn't even be covered by foundation. She asked, "Did you go clubbing last night?"Jane shook her head. "I couldn't sleep, maybe the jet lag still hasn't passed."Charlotte immediately
