Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 472
Zachary's awkwardness lasted only for a moment. Soon, he regained his composure, showing no emotion. "Yeah, I came with Charlie to take a look."Jane, dressed in a red dress that made her porcelain skin stand out, lazily glanced outside. "Where's Charlie?"Since that night when she celebrated Frank's birthday, Charlie had taken to sending her WhatsApp messages frequently. “Do you like this handbag? ““Is this necklace pretty?”“Want to go out for a drink?”It was obvious what he meant, and Jane, who wasn’t a naive girl, understood his intentions immediately."Jane." Zachary, who usually kept to himself, pointed out, "Charlie is interested in you, but he's not right for you."Upon hearing this, Jane cocked her brows in surprise. The phrase "he's not right for you" was different from "you're not right for him." While it sounded similar at first, it had a different essence, and it didn't carry the condescension typical of wealthy people.She couldn't help but laugh. "Isn't it a

I was so angry that I raised my hand to hit him. "Are you trying to embarrass me?"Frank laughed for a while, afraid that I might really get upset. He quickly wrapped his arms around my waist and said, "Okay, okay, don't get mad. They'll get to know you sooner or later.""Besides, it will make your access to the Smith Group much smoother in the future."Hearing this, I felt like a cat being petted the wrong way. "Couldn't you have chosen a different approach?""This is the most efficient way," he said confidently.I had no response. Suddenly, I realized that I seemed to have been led into a trap by him. "You know no shame! We're just dating, okay? Who's your wife!""Don't you want to marry me?" Frank's lips curved into a slight smile. "Should I marry someone else?""You won’t dare!"As I spoke, I looked up and met his bright eyes. He lowered his eyelids and glanced at the right hand I had been hiding behind my back. "What are you hiding?""Dog food."He snorted and, catching

Frank was emitting a cold aura.It was rare for him to be in such a state.Charlotte was still downstairs at the Smith Group headquarters, and when she called him and mentioned what Paulina had said, he was a bit surprised.Paulina claimed she didn't know Charlotte?When confirming Charlotte's identity initially, a part of the investigation had been assigned to them.In other words, they knew as much about Charlotte as Frank himself did.Connecting the dots, Frank thought back to the misunderstanding with Charlotte caused by the delay in Alan's information last time.Was it a genuine delay, or was it intentional?That matter was entrusted to Paulina to investigate.The person behind it couldn't possibly be Alan.But whether it was Alan or Paulina, both had been with him for nearly 20 years...They must have become too complacent, daring to challenge him now!He had given them too much power, and now they dared to bully his woman!Hearing this, Alan was even more convinced

"Frank isn’t in any trouble," said Alan."Really?" asked Paulina."Really.""That's strange." Paulina was puzzled. "Frank just called me, and his tone was off. Where are you?""The Smith Group.""But weren't you on a business trip? How come you're back early?"Paulina's tone suddenly changed. "Did you go and tell Frank that the last incident was something I did intentionally?"Alan was sweating on her behalf and didn't know what to say anymore.He had tried his best.Paulina wanted to say something more, but the call was already disconnected.When she arrived at the CEO's office and knocked on the door, she saw Alan kneeling on the floor.Her heart sank instantly.Frank was leaning against the desk, casting a disappointed glance at her but not saying anything to embarrass her. Instead, he said coldly, "SZ Technology's Northern Eulast branch is missing a deputy manager. After you hand over your current work, go there as soon as possible to start your new position."Paulina'
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 476
For now, going to the Northern Eulast branch was still considered being with SZ Technology, still part of Frank's team, which was already quite fortunate. Frank did not deny it. "Aren't you going to leave?""Leaving?" Alan was stunned.Frank had punished Paulina but hadn't punished him yet.Frank glared at him. "This is the last time. If it happens again, don't wait for me to tell you—just leave on your own.""Yes, thank you, Frank!" Alan felt as if he had been pardoned. He got up and looked at Frank. "Don't worry, I will never betray your trust again."Frank lifted his hand lightly. "Get out."Alan quickly followed.Hurrying as best he could, he caught up with Paulina just as she was starting her car to leave. He grabbed her lowered car window. "Paulina, I need to talk to you."Paulina turned her face away and wiped her tears. "If you're going to say something like 'I should have listened to your advice,' please just be quiet.""No."Alan leaned in, looking at her through

Each word from him felt like an electric current, spreading from my ears to the core of my heart.I let out a long sigh of relief, finally understanding where his mood shift at noon had come from.Frank noticed my sense of relief. "Why are you still sighing?""Why are you asking?" I pinched his waist and huffed, "Your aura suddenly changed at noon, and it startled me."Frank was momentarily surprised and asked softly, "Why didn't you ask me about it then?""I..." I squeezed my palms, slowly piecing together my true self under his affection. No longer worried about appearances or fearing awkwardness, I simply looked up at him and said, "I was scared, Frank. I might not have truly received anything for a long time, so I was a bit insecure."As soon as I finished speaking, his hand was on my head, ruffling my hair. The man leaned down, his bright, intense eyes fixed on me, and spoke with helpless affection, "Take it slow, Charlotte. I'm only 30. Even if I don't live to a hundred, I

He gave me a sidelong glance. "A little more?""Not satisfied?""That's not it." Frank smiled. "Just wondering, when will it reach its peak?"I curved my lips into a smile. "Well, that depends on how you perform. Keep it up.""Keep it up? I'm already putting in the effort physically."Frank, with a tone of coaxing, slid his hand down to the base of my thigh. After feeling something, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's not that I don't respect the elderly, but I just want to ask, why haven't your elders left yet?"My face flushed intensely, and I slapped his hand away. "Seven days! There's no way it could be that quick. If it were that quick, I'd be in the hospital!"Frank closed his eyes, resigned. He lifted me down and pulled me toward the dining room. "I'm hungry."Julie had already prepared the meal: three dishes and a soup.I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the dishes and looked at Frank. "These are all my favorites?"Whenever it was the summer, I would lose my appet

After landing, he took a taxi directly to the hotel where Alana was staying. He left his luggage in the room next door to Alana's, intending to catch some sleep and deal with things in the morning. However, his mind wouldn't calm down.Unable to lie still, he got up and went out, knocking on the door of the adjacent room.The sound of the knock seemed very jarring in the quiet corridor.Alana, woken up and irritated, was scared by the unexpected disturbance in a foreign country. She called out from behind the door, "Who is it?"Alex's deep voice responded, "It's me."After a brief silence, the door opened, and Alana, bleary-eyed, looked at him. She rubbed her eyes uncertainly. "Alex? What are you doing here?"The usually alluring woman looked somewhat disheveled, wearing a single strap of her nightdress, with the other strap having fallen off and dangling loosely on her arm.Alex reached out and adjusted the strap on her shoulder. "Why are you wearing a nightdress?"Alana sna

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

Jordan had eaten and drunk enough and was about to return to her room.Westley called out to her."Wait a moment."Jordan ignored him and kept on walking.But Westley grabbed her arms and she was pulled back.She lost her balance and fell into the man's arms.As she fell, she instinctively reached out to support herself.She felt something change under her hand.Jordan jumped up as if she had been burned.She forgot there was a grill nearby, and as she was about to fall into it, she was pulled away by a force.She only heard a series of cracking sounds, and she landed on something soft but firm.When she looked closely, it was Westley's chest. She was in his arms, and his tall frame was completely shielding her.Before she could react, Buck and the others arrived.The area was crowded."Quick, put out the fire!""Call a doctor. Don’t move Mr. Howard. Help Mrs. Howard up."Jordan was stunned as she was pulled up.It was then that she saw the scene on the ground.The gr

Frank took the soup from her hands and drank it in a few gulps.Then he pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately.It had been several days since they had been close like this.The heat built up quickly.By the time Charlotte reacted, she was already lying on the bed.She covered his mouth and gently pushed him away a little."Let's finish talking about the important things.""This is the important thing," Frank said as he moved her hand away and pressed it on top of her head. He bent down and started unbuttoning her blouse."Frank..."Charlotte's voice was broken by his actions.After several days of separation, his movements were obviously more intense.She couldn't hold back, and the corners of her eyes filled with tears, as the wave of emotions overwhelmed her...Zachary set the food on the dining table and went to the bedroom to carry Jane out.But Jane wanted to walk by herself, and Zachary helped her sit down.Jane picked up her cutlery and started eatin
