Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 594
That night, kidnapping Grandma was highly risky. Kevin originally planned to poison Ben overnight, take the Shaw family's assets, and then leave that night with Simone and Bethany. With Luke's help in buying time, their escape could have gone smoothly. However, upon learning that Grandma had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, Kevin felt it was an act of god. So, he let his guard down. But this lapse gave Frank an opportunity.Kevin steeled himself and said coldly, "I don't have a wife or children."They were in a neighboring city the ship would soon reach the border. Frank's influence was limited to Jeswood.Kevin waved his hand and ordered, "Set sail."The ship began to leave."Frank…"Frank's subordinates were anxious!If the ship left Jeswood, finding them again would be difficult.But Frank remained impassive and made no move. He was too late, Kevin was already on the ship. Taking the ship by force now would only cause more harm than good. It wasn't necessary.Since Kevin

I smiled. "We still don't know the gender yet.""This is my hopeful wish. Of course, I would also cherish a godson," said Jane."Alright, go to sleep." She covered me with the blanket.I had been so tired, staying awake just to accompany Grandma. I fell asleep almost as soon as I closed my eyes. I had a dreamless night and slept very well.The next morning, I woke up hungry and vaguely smelled something delicious."Does it smell good?"Focusing my eyes, I saw Jane waving a tuna sandwich in front of me.I chuckled helplessly. "You're so childish."Jane took it as a compliment. "I am childish."She set up a small table and arranged the breakfast neatly."Where's Grandma?"I got up to check on Grandma and wash up, but the bed was empty."Grandma got up early. She didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly. After breakfast, she went to see Ben."I nodded and went to the bathroom.Jane followed, saying, "I wonder if Ben will be a good son after he wakes up this time.

Prof. Kilburn nodded. "Something like that."Immediately, my heart sank."Charlotte." I suddenly heard my mother's voice. I turned and saw her walking towards me, giving me a warm hug. "I missed you so much.""Mom!" I sighed in relief, feeling somewhat steadied. But before I could explain the situation to her, the door behind us suddenly opened.And then, I watched in disbelief as Ben grabbed my mother in a hug.He was grinning foolishly and called out, "Honey!"Me, Jane, and my mom were all gobsmacked.There was a brief silence, and then my mom let out a scream that nearly brought the whole hospital down.Fortunately, Ben was weak, and she managed to pull away with little effort."What the hell is going on?"My mom shuddered, continuously brushing herself off as if she had touched something filthy.Ben looked at Grandma with a hurt expression. "Mom, why?"My mom was at a lost for words.Grandma obviously hadn't fully accepted the situation either, but she knew what she wa

After I finished speaking, I realized something. "Did you already know about this?"Frank nodded.I couldn't help but mutter, "Then why were you pretending you didn’t?""How was I supposed to know you were calling to tell me this? I thought you just missed me," said Frank.I snorted but said, "I did miss you. Frank, it's just better when you're here."I bit my lip. "When will you be back?""Soon, just a day or two." Frank reassured me. "You don't need to worry about Ben. Grandma will definitely make sure he doesn't trouble you.""But what if Grandma wants to take him back to the Shaw family?""Then let her do that," Frank answered firmly. "That's beyond your control. Given Ben's condition, Grandma will be worried if she doesn’t take him back home.""But Grandma doesn't want to see you upset or add to your troubles. In the end, she'll choose to return to the Shaw family and take care of Ben herself."I pursed my lips. "Do you think there are any better neurologists?""You can

Jane accompanied me as we took Grandma and Ben back to the Shaw family's old residence.Ben was in a daze and was very clingy to Grandma. He would occasionally glance at me and smile foolishly but didn't say anything. He would call me "Sweetie" from time to time, and when he saw my mom, he called her "honey." My mom managed to suppress her urge to roll her eyes thanks to years of practiced composure.He also didn't ask for Simone or Bethany, and he never mentioned their names."Madam Shaw, you're back."As we brought Grandma into the old residence, someone came to greet us. She appeared to be a bit younger than Grandma but was clearly from the same generation. Taking care of Grandma would be no problem, but Ben was another matter...I suggested, "Grandma, let me find someone else to help you out, to share the burden."The Shaw family's residence used to have many servants, each with their own duties. Now, due to whatever trouble Simone caused, not a single servant could be seen

Across the ocean.Alan received a phone call and hurried to report to Frank. Frank was about to pick up his phone and dial my number when he saw Alan and frowned slightly."You'd better have something very important.""It's very important." Alan was sweating. "The place where Jack was kept has exploded."Frank cocked his brows. "Exploded?"Alan didn't was very nervous and said honestly, "The explosion was quite big, turning the area into ruins and has affected the surroundings. I need to go back and handle the relevant matters."Frank leaned back in his chair, and something flickered in his brown eyes. He tapped his fingers on the table twice."Even if it's in ruins, you still need to confirm whether he's really dead.""Yes."Alan hurriedly turned to leave, but just as he reached the door, he heard Frank's typically casual yet chilling voice from behind."Find out the details, and then you know what to do."Alan didn't dare to argue. He had previously assured Frank that ther

Jane was enjoying herself on the dance floor. Feeling her bracelet vibrate, she was about to check who was calling when she was suddenly pulled out of the dance area by an unseen force. She stumbled her way into a private room and managed to steady herself.Looking up, she saw a familiar yet cold face.Before she could say anything, her bracelet vibrated again. Seeing that it was Charlotte calling, she immediately answered, "Why are you calling me repeatedly? Is something wrong?""Can you get in touch with Zachary? I can't reach Frank."“Oh, what a coincidence...” Zachary was right in front of her. Jane raised her hand. "Did you hear that, Mr. Collins?"At the sound of her voice, Zachary took out his phone and made a call.Jane then thought of something and asked, "Have you made contact with Alan?""No."Hearing this response, Jane felt a bit more alert. Alan's phone was supposed to be on 24/7. She had always thought he was like a droid, a never-stopping one. Now, there was act

There was a moment of silence. I was even more certain of my guess, sniffing as I said, "If you keep hiding this from me, I'm going to worry." Frank felt a headache. If he talked about it, she would worry. If he didn't, she would worry even more. Thinking of this, he imagined his cold gaze, like a knife, piercing through the clumsy Alan on the other end. Alan also felt wronged, but there was nothing he could do. After bandaging his wound, he silently stepped back to stand aside. Frank glanced at the wound on his abdomen, pinched the bridge of his nose, and said, "The negotiations didn't go very smoothly, but you don't need to worry. I'm fine." I kept waiting for him to say something. In that minute-long silence, I was sure something had happened to him. And now, I couldn't fly over there to check on him. Otherwise, he'd be distracted worrying about me. "Can you just be honest with me? Otherwise, how can I not worry?" Frank let out a light laugh and s

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
