Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 429
Alana quickly changed the topic to avoid him guessing the truth. "Do you remember what day tomorrow is?""What day is it?""Your own birthday!" Alana, frustrated at his lack of awareness, said, "It's such a great occasion. You should naturally invite Charlotte and introduce her to your childhood friends.""Oh." Frank seemed indifferent. "I'd forgotten. I'll see.""What are you waiting for?" Alana waved her hand. "I've already booked the place and I'll notify the people. You'd better muster up the courage with the help of alcohol and make a move."After hanging up, the housekeeper finished cleaning and left.Frank, enduring the pain in his legs, got up and walked slowly to the bathroom to retrieve the bathrobe Charlotte had worn. After confirming it was dry, he folded it carefully and placed it on the bedside table next to the ugly rabbit-shaped piggy bank.The piggy bank from 20 years ago was handmade by her. The current piggy bank was also handmade by her, 20 years later.As h

"Okay, thanks, Alana," I replied.As soon as I sent that message, Alana sent over the location.Since she knew Danny would be coming, she had booked a well-known club in Jeswood instead of a bar. The environment was quiet, and children were allowed.Jane leaned over. "Is this from Frank?""No, it's from his cousin."I handed the phone to her. "It's Frank's birthday tomorrow. Want to come along?"Jane was still upset about the afternoon's events. "Are you sure you want to go?""It's probably a misunderstanding. His friend will likely be there too. We could go and clear things up in person."If it was a misunderstanding, it was best to resolve it with a face-to-face conversation.Jane, clearly frustrated, gave me a look. "For your sake, fine!""You're the best!"I winked at her and picked up Danny from the carpet. "Danny, tomorrow is Uncle's birthday. Let's go out and pick out a gift for him!"I remembered Frank's birthday and had already prepared a gift. However, if we're ce

"Paulina..." Alan swallowed hard, trying to suppress the surge of desire in his eyes. "You shouldn't act like this. As a young woman, you need to have self-respect!"Paulina looked at him, seeing through him completely. "Aren't you interested in me?"Years ago, Frank had selected six people: two women and four men. The other woman was stationed in Northern Eulast. Among the men, the woman they had the most contact with was Paulina. It didn't surprise her that Alan might have feelings for her.After taking a nap, Danny grabbed my phone and called Frank.Frank answered quickly. "Uncle, happy birthday! Are you at the your office or at home?""At home.""Then let's go to your birthday party tonight together!""Okay." Frank seemed to be in a good mood, agreeing readily. Then he remembered something and his tone turned colder. "What about your pretty sister?""Which pretty sister?""You know.""Aunt!" Danny proudly handed me the phone. "Uncle's looking for you."I took the phone
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 432
"Frank..." Paulina softened her tone, playing the role of a confidante at the right moment. "Perhaps Charlotte made such a choice because she thought you had died in the explosion. It's not entirely her fault. After all, even the police reported your death..."Bang—Hearing the loud crash of something being thrown, Frank's phone line was abruptly cut off, leaving only the sound of static.Paulina's lips curved into a satisfied smile as she immersed herself in her work.Having been by Frank's side for so many years, she had learned one thing, in any situation, there was only success, never failure. In the past, she was reluctant to see Frank disappointed. Now, she didn't want to disappoint herself.Frank's eyes were bloodshot and full of rage. He was so agitated that he no longer cared about his leg pain and kicked the bin across the room. But the more he vented, the fiercer the fire inside him burned!Almost to the point of madness!Since Charlotte's return, his anger ha

I was frozen in place.Danny wriggled free from his hold and, like a little beast, rushed back to me, clinging to my legs with tears streaming down his face. "It's not like that! Uncle, you're so mean!"Hearing this, Frank smiled slightly, fixing his gaze on me. "Am I wrong?"I realized that he must have misunderstood something. At that moment, he was probing me, waiting for me to give a contrary answer. This was probably his last chance for me to explain.I slowly averted my gaze, crouched down, and hugged the sobbing Danny, wiping away his tears. "Be good, Danny. Uncle said something wrong. Can you give Aunt a little time? Let me explain things to your uncle, okay?"The little one blinked his tear-filled long lashes and said in a soft, babyish voice, "Okay...""Jane." I dialed Jane's number.She answered, puzzled, "What's up?""Can you come up to the fifth floor first to take Danny to the place where the birthday party will be?""Sure." Jane noticed something off in my tone
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 434
Hearing this, Frank pulled me close again, still deliberately keeping a stern expression. "And what else, Charlotte? Say it all at once."I was slightly taken aback. "What else did you find out?""What should I have found out?"My gaze flickered, growing uncertain. I didn't know how extensive his network was. But since he could find out that Jack owned the house I was living in, he must have known other things as well...I hugged him and hesitantly said, "Frank, it wasn't that serious... And it's already been cured."This time, he was the one who was stunned."Cured?""Yes." I nodded. "Jack introduced me to a very skilled psychologist, a very kind woman who helped me a lot...""A psychologist?" He suddenly grabbed my shoulders, pulling us apart, his eyes filled with turbulence!I then realized something. "You... didn't know?""Psychologist..." Frank murmured, looking deeply into my eyes. "You... had depression? When did this happen?""A long time ago!" I was sure he didn't k

Before he could finish speaking, the office door was pushed open. Paulina walked in with a dark face, glaring at him through gritted teeth!Alan waited for a moment. Seeing that Frank still hadn't spoken, he said, "Frank, I'll hang up now. If you need anything, call me anytime. I'll send the relevant documents to your email right away."Smack—As soon as Alan hung up the phone, a powerful slap landed on his face!Alan gasped, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and forced a smile. "As expected of a black belt. Even slaps are so forceful.""Alan, you're so shameless!"Paulina's eyes, hidden behind black-rimmed glasses, burned with anger as she glared at him. "How dare you tell Frank?""Because it was my people who found out," said Alan. "Because Frank gave me the life I have now. Paulina, whether it's you, me, or anyone else, none of us has the right to betray Frank."Alan had never had any principles in his work. Over the years, he had committed many

"Alana asked me to buy these." Frank, with his brown eyes fixed on me, said meaningfully, "She said that if I want to pursue you, I should always be ready to be living together and prepare these feminine hygiene products."I felt my ears flush with heat. "Who said anything about living with you? Besides, we're still just friends!""Alright, alright," He pulled me closer, brushing his lips against mine briefly, his lips glistening. "Friends who can kiss and hug, is that satisfactory?""Pervert!" Embarrassed and angry, I quickly pulled away and stood up.Frank grabbed my wrist and looked up at me. "Then what would you call our relationship?""I'm not going to say." I gave him a scolding look. "Since when does pursuing someone mean they have to be the one to make the first move?""What about my birthday present?"I felt that his mood seemed a bit off. Originally, I planned to find another chance to give him the gift, but I didn't want to wait any longer. "The gift... just wait a mo

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
