Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 45
"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

With this little episode, I found myself distracted intermittently throughout the morning. It was as if there were an angel and a devil inside my head arguing.One said, "See, he does care after all. He even remembered the day we first met."The other countered, "But just recently, he forgot you were even from the Univeristy of Jelaston. How could he remember this date? Most likely, he asked someone like Tom. Don't fall into the trap of romanticizing!"At noon, I shook off these complicated thoughts and invited Jane to have lunch at the canteen together. We used to order takeout or eat out frequently, but lately, I couldn't bear to walk an extra step and found the canteen's food to be fresher and cleaner, so I settled there.As I approached the office area, someone had already packed my lunch. Suddenly catching a whiff of it made me feel nauseous, prompting me to rush to the toilet. After thoroughly emptying my stomach and enduring the bitter taste in my mouth, I leaned against the

"That's even less likely."Unless one day he learned the truth about his mother's death, maybe his attitude towards Jessica would change slightly. But before that, things would be difficult.Speaking of which, I couldn't understand why Grandpa didn't tell Ryan. I would have to visit the Frost family's residence one day and ask.As we finished eating, I returned to the main topic. "By the way, Jane, did you manage to get tickets for the concert?"Jane had more connections within the company. When it came to finalizing the concert plans, I had to ask her to help me get tickets.Jane gestured to the ceiling and complained, "I don't know what's going on with the tickets this time. Only the President's office has them, and they only have one per person.""Only the President's office?""Yeah, if you really want them, why not take advantage of Ryan while he's wanting to please you? Ask him, he'll surely provide as many as you need.""I think I'll pass."It was better for me and Ryan

Ryan was drugged.It was a drug that would make anyone feel aroused.With Ryan's decisive nature in the business world, when he came to his senses the next day, the other party would not have a good ending.However, now wasn't the time to think about those things.Looking at Ryan's face, which was unusually red. I was worried that he wouldn't survive tonight.When I was in a dilemma, the phone that I left in the bedroom rang loudly. Seeing the caller ID, I felt like I had found my savior, so I quickly answered the call."Babe, I got the tickets. Tom has some...""Jane!" I couldn't wait to interrupt. "Do you know what to do if someone's drugged?""What kind of drug?""What kind of drug?""Aphrodisiac..."I had trouble opening my mouth.Jane in all likelihood was drinking. She choked and coughed repeatedly. "Ahem, why are you suddenly asking such a question... cough cough cough, you...""No, no." I thought of the man on the sofa who was hot and couldn't care less anymore. "I

He placed some meat on her plate and asked, "Don't you like being close to me? Or do you still think our relationship isn't suitable for closeness right now?"Jordan couldn't really explain.Westley answered for her, "Do you think the development between us is different from others? So it's awkward?"Jordan thought for a moment, and it seemed like that was the case.Westley continued, "So you still want to go through a process before we get to the point where we can kiss in a romantic relationship?"Jordan fell silent.Westley said, "If you have something to say, just say it. There's nothing we should be embarrassed about between us."Jordan bit her cutlery, and after a few seconds, she said, "Before we remarry, we can maintain a working relationship. We can eat together, do some things together, but we can't have any intimate behavior. Can you accept that?"Westley obviously couldn't accept it.He didn't really understand why she wanted it that way.But he still went along w

"Otherwise, would you listen to something you don't want to hear?"Jordan didn't want to argue with him. "I'll say this one last time... Mm!"Her lips were sealed, and when Jordan tried to push him away, she kept punching his shoulder.She tilted her head to dodge, but he firmly held her by the back of her head.She opened her mouth to bite him, but he grabbed her face, deepening the kiss.In the quiet office, with only the two of them, the sound of water droplets, which made hearts race and faces flush, could be heard.Jordan, unable to take it anymore, kicked him.But his long legs held her down.She was completely at his mercy, unable to move at all."Um..."It wasn't until the sound of a knock on the door broke the intimate atmosphere."I'm here for the interview... Is this a bad time?"As soon as Westley released her, Jordan immediately pushed him away, wiping her lips forcefully.She stomped on him hard and tried to calm her emotions as she looked toward the door."

Jordan went to sit on the sofa and casually raised her hand toward him."Go on."Westley looked at her, noticing how she resembled a boss, a look that had some of his own influence in it.He smiled.Jordan shot him a glare. "Be serious.""Alright."Westley sat up straight, looking serious.He began to explain his previous plans to her.Except for parts of the plan that needed to be kept confidential, he didn't hide anything else."The reason I had you stab me was indeed to let you vent your anger, to make up for the harm I've caused you. It was just a coincidence that the higher-ups issued an order at the same time, so I decided to go along with it. Now, the plan has been completed. I can indeed come back to life, but right now, there's nothing I need to do. The Howard family has Leanne, and I've already resigned. I'm just a jobless wanderer now, and no one cares. Whether I'm alive or not doesn't really matter."Jordan felt that those last two sentences were clearly meant to

But when she reached the bedroom door, ready to go out and check, she thought again, how could he, such a grown man, possibly be putting himself through hardship?With so many people under him, he could just call anyone to bring him clothes.And he could book a comfortable presidential suite for himself.There was no need for her to be concerned about it.Besides, it was her who had locked him out in the first place.Going out now would only make it seem like she cared about him too much.Right.She shouldn't go out.Jordan returned to her bed.But no matter what, she couldn't fall asleep.In the living room, Westley was already lying on the sofa.The heating was turned up high, so he wasn't worried about the cold.He was holding his phone, making some kind of plan.In the end, Jordan didn't even know how she fell asleep.When she woke up groggily, the first thing she did was get up and check on Westley.But she found that he wasn't there anymore.She let out a sigh of

She now saw herself only as a sister figure to him. Even though they were a bit close, there was still a sense of distance and wariness.It was impossible for her to fully open up to him.But at that moment, suddenly talking about their relationship wasn't really appropriate.Besides, with how things had developed between her and Westley, if he intervened, it would just force them apart.In the end, it would be her who got hurt.‘Forget it.’Nathan decided to just watch how things would unfold.If Westley still didn't realize his mistakes and hurt Jordan again, then no matter what, he couldn't let them be together."Has Jasmine not come back?""Huh?" The topic changed too quickly, and Jordan was a little slow to react. "No.""Nathan, did you take anything from this room?"Nathan's gaze darkened slightly. "No."Noticing that he was in a bad mood, Jordan didn't ask about his situation with Jasmine."Jasmine probably has something she wants to do."Nathan could tell from her

"I've already picked out a few candidates, but I just haven't had the chance to arrange meetings for you yet. Maybe you've only ever been exposed to him since childhood. Try dating someone else, and you might realize he isn't the only one for you." Jordan shook her head. "Nathan, that's not it..." "I'm certain I like him—no matter how outstanding others are, I won't be interested." Nathan frowned. "You've never tried being with anyone else. How can you be so sure?" Of course, Jordan was sure. Ever since her youthful heart first fluttered, she had been certain, apart from Westley, she would never love anyone else. And that was precisely why his indifference had wounded her so deeply. She had filed for divorce and despised his later attempts at remorse. Because she had never wavered in her feelings—yet he only began to love her after she decided to let go. If he had realized it even a little sooner, they wouldn't have suffered through such a painful, drawn-out

"I’m not doing anything," Westley answered her question, squeezing her hand slightly. "Just need your help with something."Jordan was already in her 20s.How could she not understand the things between men and women?His voice was dangerously hoarse now, and what kind of help could he possibly need from her?"You do it yourself, I can't help.""Well, I’ll do all the hard work."He was the one doing all the hard work indeed.But he was holding her hand, making her hand... move with his!Jordan tried to pull her hand back. "Westley, you’re making me mad."Westley leaned on her shoulder and laughed lowly. "Alright, after you help me, feel free to get angry. Hit me however you want. But right now, Jordy, I can't stop."The temperature in the kitchen gradually rose.With the heating, it made the air dry and uncomfortable.She had just taken a shower to cool down, but now, a thin layer of sweat had formed.She felt hot.Jordan had nowhere to hide and couldn't break free.In t

The arm around her waist suddenly tightened.The breath sprayed near her ear, hot and unsettling.The man's hoarse voice came. "Don't want to sleep? Then how about we do something else?"Jordan gripped the blanket tightly, weakly lying, "I want to go to the bathroom. I haven't washed up yet either."Westley released her.Jordan quickly escaped. She didn't know what she might do if she stayed another second.Westley lowered his head, glancing at her, then sighed deeply.This was a pyrrhic victory.Jordan stayed in the bathroom for a long time.She even took a shower.But after finishing, she suddenly remembered that her bath towel had been taken by Westley.Standing in the bathroom, she felt like she had no way out.And in her haste to come in, she hadn't grabbed a change of clothes.She had impulsively picked up the clothes that Westley had swapped out of and her clothes and tossed them into the laundry basket.Her clothes were now all wet.She could only silently fume.

‘I’ve already taken my pants off and you’re just going to leave it at that?’She thought this must have been intentional on Westley's part.She raised her leg and kicked him, then turned around, pulling the blanket away, her back clearly showing a trace of resentment.Westley didn't mind, pulling both her and the blanket into his arms.He chuckled softly in her ear."Your reaction right now makes me think you're dissatisfied."The deliberate pause was even more teasing.Jordan immediately elbowed him.But because she was tangled in the blanket, she couldn't put much strength into it.The muffled laugh of the man in her ear clearly mocked her, making her even angrier.Her emotions flared up too quickly, and tears started falling.Westley felt the wetness on his arm, it was hot.He quickly sat up.He knew about her tendency to lose control of her tears, but seeing her cry still made his heart ache.He gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eye with his thumb and whis
