Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 42
"It's exactly what you see in front of you." Grandpa's voice carried a trace of sorrow and regret. "It's our fault. It's the Frost family's fault for Wendy's tragedy. It's my fault that I've not been able to properly discipline my own son."My late mother-in-law had a beautiful name, Wendy Lawson. After hearing Grandpa's words, I was completely dumbstruck. It turned out, my mother-in-law didn't die from hard labor. She was pushed down the stairs when she was in her final weeks of pregnancy.The person who pushed her was none other than Ryan's stepmother, who treated him as her own, and ironically ended up in a coma in an attempt to save him. My mind was in turmoil. How could she treat Ryan so well and yet be the one who killed his biological mother? It didn't make sense at all.Before I could sort everything out in my head, Grandpa continued, "I don't understand why she could be so good to Ryan.""It's all..." Grandpa sneered. "It's all about personal interests.""After Ryan's
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 43
Now that Grandpa had asked me for a favor, I had no reason to turn him down. Ryan and I were already separated, and a divorce certificate would only make our division clearer. There was no rush for us to get a divorce agreement.Moreover, Grandpa's 80th birthday was just a month away. There wasn’t much time left at all.Later, Albert escorted me out of the study."Mr. William did this because he's worried that you and Mr. Frost will regret your decisions in the future. He wants you both to think things through a little longer."I pursed my lips and was about to speak when my phone rang.It was an unknown landline."Hello, is this a relative of Jane?""Yes.""This is Jelaston Police Station. Please come over as soon as possible."Before I could ask anything, they hung up.With no time to spare, I hurried downstairs. As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I saw Jessica fuming with anger."You've gone over the line!" she exclaimed, moving to slap me, but I stopped her.

In public, Ryan maintained his usual aloof demeanor.The black trench coat added to his domineering aura.As he approached step by step, I suddenly felt uneasy.This matter could be big or small.Small, it could be settled with money. But big...With Ryan's power in Jelaston, it would be as easy as flipping a hand to make Jane go to jail.And undoubtedly, he would protect Jessica.As expected, he stood beside Jessica. His eyes were slightly lowered, lips lightly parted. "How do you want to deal with this?"I clenched my fists and before Jessica could speak, Jane pulled me behind her."I'll take full responsibility. This has nothing to do with Charlotte.""Jane!"I was anxious, but Jane glanced at me, and said disdainfully, "How are you going to deal with this? Beg your ex-husband publicly for my sake or beg the mistress who’s wrecking your marriage?"Before she finished, the atmosphere in the room became even more tense.Jessica sneered. "Who are you calling a mistress? Ac

"If it weren't for my stubbornness back then, you wouldn't have had to endure this humiliation."Jane rolled her eyes after hearing those words. If I hadn't pulled her away, she would have stormed back to argue. It was raining and the wind was strong. This caused the temperature to drop significantly. It was so cold that it could make anyone hunch their shoulders.Once inside the car, Jane fumed, "Why did you pull me away? Didn't you hear what she said? Damn it, what a stupid fool. Where was she during human evolution?""I heard."I started the car and started driving. "Ryan is unpredictable. I just want to leave before he changes his mind."There was no need to be angry with Jessica."Aren't you angry?" she asked."Not really."It was more accurate to say I was used to it.At this hour, nightlife in Jelaston was just beginning. The streets were busy and congested with people.It was stop-and-go all the way.Suddenly, Jane smiled slyly and leaned over, blinking at me. "Did

'Moving house?' I repeated inwardly.My heart skipped a beat.At that moment, I found it a little hard to calm myself down.I took a deep breath. "Move here? I didn't agree to that.""Grandpa said you promised him that you'll postpone the divorce."He played the bummer and handed me his phone. "Do you want to talk to Grandpa?""You have no shame." I couldn't help but glare at him. "Agreeing to postpone the divorce doesn't I agree to you moving in with me."I couldn't believe that the CEO of the Frost Group would be so shameless.No one would believe in such a sight."It's normal for husband and wife to live together," he said matter-of-factly."Excuses, excuses," I said as I opened the door and walked into the house.He followed me in as if it was his house as well.I thought of what Grandpa told me that night and felt sorry for Ryan, so I decided not to drive him away.I reached out and pointed to a room opposite the master bedroom. "You can stay in that room.""Okay." H

"No, no." I tried to deny the fact that I was hungry. "I just came out for something.""You mean that?" He pointed to a takeout bag on the dining table.I rubbed my nose awkwardly after he had seen through my lie. "Didn't I tell the delivery guy not to ring the doorbell?""He didn't.""Then how did you know?""He knocked."I choked, feeling embarrassed at the delivery guy's cleverness.Walking over to open the bag, Ryan placed a bowl of steaming seafood soup in front of me. "Grandpa said you didn't eat much at the banquet tonight, so he had the leftover seafood sent over.""So this soup...""I made it." Ryan sat across from me, his handsome face serious yet calm. "I took a shower first. Since you're not feeling well, try to avoid takeout for a while."I paused, realizing his gesture was telling me something. He was telling me that he had made the soup after having a shower. This meant that he made sure the soup was clean in order to make me feel comfortable.Lowering my head

It was the worst night's sleep I had ever since I became pregnant.I kept reminding myself he was just my ex-husband, but emotions were beyond my control.The next day, when I was about to leave for work with heavy dark circles under my eyes, Ryan stopped me at the doorway.He wore a tailored grey suit, exuding an unreachable elegance that only highlighted his perfect looks and figure.He then just handed me a lunchbox. "Take some breakfast with you.""Okay." I accepted calmly, saving me the trouble of buying breakfast again. As the father of the child in my womb, having one meal from him was not too much.Seeing this, a faint smile appeared on his lips. "I'm also going to work. Let's go together.""Let's not. Let's avoid trouble, lest your lover comes to me.""She won't," he replied calmly."So you admit she's your lover now?" I couldn't help but ask disdainfully. After saying this, I walked straight out of the house and into the elevator.In the underground car park, I noti

"You wouldn't know I’m looking at you unless you’re looking at me as well," I retorted."It's normal for me to look at my own wife," he said shamelessly.His words caught me off guard, and I couldn't bring myself to ask the question I had intended.The Frost Group towered above us, its glass facade reflecting the morning sun like cut diamonds.After Gary parked the car in the car park, I immediately got out and wanted to escape the scene."Morning, Charlotte!" Nancy suddenly ran over from nearby, looking energetic as she greeted me enthusiastically.I smiled and grabbed her arm, urging her to walk. "Good morning. Let's walk quickly. It's too cold.""Charlotte, you forgot your breakfast." Behind me, Ryan opened the car door and stepped out, calling after me.I took a deep breath, turned around to take the breakfast, and spoke as distantly as possible, "Thank you, Mr. Frost.""Young lady, are you and Mr. Frost..." Nancy hooked my arm and leaned in with a flirtatious wink. "Whe

Jordan was worried. "Jane, let's stay for two days before going back. You should rest.""It's fine, I know what I'm doing."Jordan didn't say anything more.After boarding the plane, she wanted to tell Jane about the man she met.However, Jane said she was tired and then fell asleep.So, Jordan could only wait until Jane woke up to talk.At that moment, the man sent her a message."Do you like peanut butter?"The question was a bit abrupt, but since he was the client, and her studio was still in its startup phase, she politely replied, "Sorry, I'm allergic to peanuts."The man didn't reply after that.Jordan didn't pay much attention to it, after all, they weren't very familiar with each other."Ms. Hickey."Jasmine sat down opposite her and, seeing Jane asleep, quietly shared with Jordan."Mr. Howard also wanted to get on the plane, but he was stopped by Mr. Collins.""And then they fought!"Jordan didn't move.First, because she couldn't solve anything even if she wen

"It's to make sure that Jordan doesn't know, to keep their relationship ambiguous, which will stimulate Westley. That way, your cousin will get to know Westley fully."Jane was rendered speechless.Although Westley was a scheming person, Zachary's heart was no better.Jordan was woken up by Jasmine, they were about to land.Jordan turned her head left and right, relieved her neck, opened the sunshade, and could already see tall buildings.She had slept pretty well this time.As Jasmine adjusted her movements and safety measures, she made eye contact with the handsome guy in the front row.Her heart raced, and she grabbed Jordan's hand to steady herself."Ms. Hickey, he's really handsome."Jordan leaned by the window. Without Jasmine's good vantage point, she still noticed the man's gaze.It was directed at her side.She was sensitive because she had often used a camera to capture moments."He just asked me if we looked alike. Did he not say anything else?"Jasmine shook he

Jasmine suddenly stood up.‘Why is Westley here?’Ross also stood up and blocked Westley.Jordan had bought an economy class ticket.A small aisle was now crowded.The flight attendants quickly came to mediate.Westley was in the VIP system, which everyone knew.But no one knew why he was in economy class this time."Mr. Howard, would you like me to handle this?"Westley gave a glance, and then Jax stepped forward to escort the flight attendants away, telling them not to come again.They couldn't intervene in Westley's matters, so they could only calm the other passengers, stopping them from filming to prevent a bad impression of Westley."Mr. Howard!"Jasmine had been quite dissatisfied with Westley recently, but because of his power, as a small assistant, she couldn't do much.But this time, she couldn't hold back."Ms. Hickey has already divorced you, you have no right to interfere in her life! Even if she dates eighty handsome guys, you can't control that!"Jordan wa

"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

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
