"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

But we were obviously going to be divorced.I wanted to push him but didn’t have the strength. I was so desperate that I wanted to cry. "Don t, Ryan, I don t want it!""Don't cry... do you really not want it?" His Adam’s apple bobbed. His eyes were red, looking deeply at me. I could see that he was trying to restrain himself."Yes...""Okay."He closed his eyes, veins popping on his forehead. His breathing was ragged as hell, but he slowly let go of me.I squeezed my palms lightly. "So, you...""Charlotte."He suddenly opened his eyes, his lust not only did not fade, but it became even worse. He pulled me into his arms, his lips pressed against my ear. "Help me, okay?"Perhaps it was because my brain was a bit chaotic, I actually felt he was begging me.My heart skipped a beat. "How, how can I help?"The words became a promise in the man's consciousness as he leaned down and scooped me up with his hands through the hollows of my knees.Suddenly suspended in the air, I subco

I had completely forgotten about this matter.I didn't expect him to still remember.I wiped the water off my face with a soft towel. "It's okay, I'm fine."He frowned. "Weren't you feeling unwell last night?"I couldn't say that the doctor advised against sexual activities during the first three months of pregnancy.I could find an excuse for it. "I'm fine now."He didn't seem to believe me. "Really?"If I were to go, he would definitely take me to a private hospital owned by the Frost Group, using the VIP channel.No waiting in line and the medical reports would come out very quickly.But that way, I couldn't possibly hide the fact that I was pregnant."I don't want to go, I don't like going to hospitals." I avoided his gaze."Charlotte." Ryan squinted his eyes. "Are you hiding something from me?"Thud!His question was too sudden, I got nervous, and the skincare product in my hand fell onto the marble countertop. It made my heart skip a beat.My guilt was too obvious.

His eyes were dark. "Can't it be for some other reason?""Such as?" I didn't deny the fact that I was testing him.He pursed his lips. "I just want you to be healthy.""Sounds just like a birthday wish for elders at home."A thought crossed my mind and I smiled instantly. "Save that for next month at Grandpa's birthday banquet."Wishing for my health.Wishing for a hundred years of harmony with Jessica?When the nurse came to draw blood, as she disinfected my arm, I instinctively recoiled, my body tensing up.I had been afraid of needles since I was little.When I had fallen ill as a child, Dad would hold me, Mom would hold my other hand, comforting me during injections or blood tests.There would even be rewards.In the years since then, my health has been decent. I could handle common colds, and even with severe ones, I could just make do with some normal medicine. I rarely needed to draw blood.But I was still afraid of needles.However, I had already grown up. I was sc
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 56
In a daze, I thought of the past.Back then, Ryan and I had only been married for six months. My period was delayed by about 10 days. Even though he always used protection, I still faintly wondered if I might be pregnant each time. When I bought the pregnancy test kit, I was eager to share the news of being pregnant with him.Now that I really was pregnant, thinking about Ryan standing just a door away, I couldn't muster any excitement or joy. All I felt was fear and nervousness about what unexpected changes might come.The worst outcome would be losing this child.The mere two and a half years had turned everything upside down as if we were from different worlds now.My legs felt like lead as I walked to the door, my emotions complex, but I found no sign of Ryan outside! Where was he?All that remained was my handbag, left alone on the metal bench by the door.Had he left?I pulled out my phone from the bag, a message was on the screen."I have some urgent business. After the

Buck's unchanging poker face was stunned. "Wasn't it benign?""Well, someone has a death wish."That was true.Buck was about to say something when he heard Westley calling him. He quickly walked into the ward.He didn't need to listen, he knew it was something about Jordan."Go after her immediately. Keep a close watch on her and report back to me in real-time."Buck had been by Westley's side all these years.He thought he would be asked to arrange for someone trustworthy to keep an eye on her.But it turned out that it Westley was sending him."Sir, I can send Silas.""You go." Westley massaged his temples. "Silas still has his own matters to deal with.""Then what about Jax...""You go." Westley's eyes grew cold. "Do I need to repeat myself?""But what about you...""Do you think I’ll die in the Greyson family's hospital?"Well, that was not possible.The Greyson family's security was only slightly inferior to the Howard family's.But Buck had never left Westley's

"Mr. Howard’s illness is quite serious this time, but it wasn’t because he caught a cold from bringing you to the hospital today. It’s because he’s already been in poor health recently. It’s just a coincidence that the cold worsened his condition. Considering the past relationship, please stay and keep him company. Your fever hasn't subsided, and it's a good opportunity to rest in the hospital for a few days."Jordan remained silent. At that moment, her phone rang.She thought it was the driver calling, but when she picked up, it was Oliver."Oliver.""Have you finished what you’re doing?" Oliver's gentle voice sounded on the other end of the line. "There's work here. Once you're done, come over. It’s fine if you’re not done yet. It's not an animal shoot. If you can't spare the time, I'll contact someone else."Jordan quickly replied, "I'll fly over right now.""Mrs. Howard, you're still running a fever." Buck spoke up, earning an angry glare from Jordan."Jordy, are you running

Jordan's face turned red with anger, and she yelled, "You're sneaky and cunning. You’re just a scumbag!"Westley bent down to pick up the door handle and handed it to her."How did a perfectly fine door break in your hands? Instead of cursing, shouldn't you reflect on yourself?"Suddenly, Jordan wasn't angry anymore.In fact, she even laughed.Because she was truly speechless."Westley, you're making me feel that having feelings for you back then was the stupidest thing I’ve ever done. I was really stupid, actually feeling sad and upset for someone like you, who is full of lies and has a scheming heart. You don't deserve it. Westley, you... don't... deserve it."Westley hadn't expected this outcome.It had been a good opportunity, and he really wanted to sit down and have a proper conversation with her.But what happened last night was beyond his expectations.He hadn't predicted today's situation either."I didn't mean it like that... let me explain..."Jordan interrupted

She wasn't used to calling someone for every little thing."It's fine, I just need a sip of water.""You have a 39-degree fever, so please rest more. If the fever doesn't go down, it could turn into pneumonia, like Mr. Howard."Cough cough...Jordan choked on the water. She vaguely remembered that outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, Westley had walked toward her and seemed to have picked her up.But there were so many people around him. Could he really get soaked in the rain?How did she get this high fever?It couldn't be that she fainted, and just by him picking her up, he caught the illness, right?Westley met her confused gaze and began to explain, "You were soaked through. I carried you all the way to the hospital, and I got wet too."‘So?’"I was so focused on getting you treated, I forgot about myself. I thought I was fine, but it turns out I'm worse off than you."Jordan knew that Westley rarely fell ill.She had envied his constitution when they were kids. Unlike her

Jane happily sent the couple into the elevator.She returned home and picked up the clothes that were scattered on the floor.As she was about to pick up a piece, a fine hand took it from her.She was helped to sit down on the sofa.Jane found it amusing. "Didn't my check-up results show no issues? It's just hanging clothes, it's not like I can't do it."She felt like she was disabled being taken care of like this by Zachary."And you, you've taken over the family business now, aren't you busy? Stop circling around me all day."Zachary hung the clothes on the hanger and placed them in the study first.Hearing her words, his lips pressed down slightly."Are you getting tired of me?"‘No wonder he’s good friends with Frank,’ thought Jane.Jane had just heard Charlotte complain that every time she did something, even if she was away for a short while, Frank would make it seem as if she was getting tired of him."Staring at the same person all the time, it's bound to happen."

Due to Westley's special permission, their news was all over Nelana recently.Jordan was caught in the rain, Westley carried her to the hospital, and they even took a dramatic photo, which has been going viral all over the internet these past few days."With the beginning and end cut out, the clueless audience has been going crazy over this."Westley controlled the message he wanted to send out to the public.As for why Jordan was standing in the rain at the Civil Affairs Bureau, no one would know.To the public, they were the picture-perfect wealthy couple with a great relationship."My connections are getting better,"Dominic joked. "I found out it's nothing serious, just an acute cold from getting soaked in the rain. She's at the Greyson family's hospital, and even Carter, a big shot, was called to check on her. There’s definitely nothing to worry about."Jane let out a sigh of relief. "That's good, please keep an eye on her for me.""Don't worry. Just take care of yourself,"

Westley looked at Jordan on the hospital bed, her lips pale, and didn't say anything.His gaze was deep, and it was unclear what he was thinking.Leanne, seeing his hair still dripping wet, went to grab a towel to help him dry it.Westley raised his hand to push her away.Leanne laughed. "So what, you're planning to stay here be sick with her?"Westley remained silent.Leanne was used to it.As the eldest son of the Howard family, bearing a heavy responsibility, he had matured earlier than other kids his age. His thoughts were so deep that they were impossible to fathom.When he was in a good mood, he would talk a little more.When he was in a bad mood, he couldn't even spare a glance."Westley, the one at fault here is you. Forgive me for speaking frankly, but the way you're handling this will only make Jordan more frustrated and push her even further away from you. You know best yourself—everyone who lied would be punished severely by you. You've deceived Jordan again and a

"Tell Westley that if I don't see him at the Civil Affairs Bureau today, I'll file for divorce. If his work gets affected or he gets embarrassed because of it, he'd better not blame me."Buck's phone was on speaker, so there was no need to relay the message—Westley heard everything clearly.Caught in the middle, Buck felt like a sandwich. Not an enviable position."Mrs. Howard, you must be very busy. Don't waste time waiting outside the Civil Affairs Bureau. Once Mr. Howard finishes his work, he'll contact you.""Contact my ass!" Jordan swore, her frustration spilling over. "That scumbag is full of tricks! Let's see how long you can hide for! I'll wait until five o'clock when the Civil Affairs Bureau closes. If I don't see you, get ready for me to file for divorce!"Beep beep beep!She hung up the phone.Buck hesitated before carefully speaking. "Sir, Mrs. Howard seems to know you were listening.""Yeah."Westley's lips curved into a faint smile. "She's gotten smarter."Buck

"They've gone through so much and still haven't reconciled!"The captain didn't even open his eyes and said, "Go run 10km."Jordan thought she wouldn't be able to sleep after everything that happened.But in the end, she drifted off in a daze.In her hazy state, it seemed as if something brushed against the corner of her eye, wiping away her tears.The next morning, when she woke up, the room was completely empty, leaving only her.She immediately went out to look for Westley.There was no sign of Buck, who was always by his side.She grabbed someone nearby and asked, "Where's Westley?"The subordinate replied, "Mr. Howard left last night. I'm not sure about his specific itinerary. Please understand, Mrs. Howard."Westley's schedule was always kept confidential.It was only known when he actually appeared at an event.The only one who might know was Buck.But she couldn't get in touch with him either.Just as she was about to call Westley, another call came in.Seeing th
