Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 628
They thought it was Frank's unbearable temperament that had angered Senno. They even imagined how satisfying it would be to see Frank dead. Once that happened, they could take the Shaw family's assets from Charlotte and then eliminate her. It would be a double celebration.But what they saw was Frank pointing a gun at Senno. It was completely the other way around. The atmosphere by the shore was tense. Only Frank, the cause of the situation, stood relaxed with one hand in his pocket. Yet beneath that calm exterior, he was on high alert, especially not having seen Charlotte."I'll ask you one more time, where is she?"Senno raised his hand, signaling everyone to lower their guns. Frank was difficult to conquer, which only made people want to conquer him more."I'll take you to her."Senno returned to his usual self, smiling as he led Frank into the forest, not caring about the gun in his hand. After all, Frank wouldn't casually kill him without first finding that woman.What Senno

He signaled me not to struggle. To trust him. He looked at me, softly saying, "I'm here, don't be afraid, okay?" I wasn't really afraid, but I had never wanted to hug him so much before. "Frank, you've seen the woman, can you come with me now?" Senno's smile faded significantly. This woman made Frank so gentle, he definitely couldn't let her stay alive. Jack was just right to take her away. Their goals would both be achieved. "Jack's mercenaries are different from me, they only care about money. If the money is right, they'll do anything." But just as Senno finished speaking, his trusted aide rushed in. "Boss, bad news! Kanby's people are coming!" "Kanby?" Senno looked at Frank, completely losing his smile. "I treated you sincerely, and you repay me like this?" "Go, tie him up for me." "Jack, take your people and get this woman far away." Jack didn't want to waste time here either. Frank could escape unscathed from Senno now that he had teamed

Taking advantage of Jack loosening his grip, I slipped out of his arms. I was dumbfounded when I saw him arm hanging down and the gun on the ground.I took two steps back, but didn't feel any sense of relief. "Charlotte." Frank strode forward and pulled me tightly into his arms. I finally regained came back to my senses a little. "Frank..." All the anxiety and tension of the day, all the bad emotions, vanished in that moment. I felt an immense sense of security. It was something no one else could give me. Jane had wanted to step forward, but seeing us so tightly embraced, she just waited to the side. At that moment, a group of people suddenly arrived. The leader was still in uniform, shouting to everyone, "Don't move!" Senno had come to this island with only a small number of people, believing no one could enter his territory. But today, Frank brought Kanby. Kanby was well-prepared and Senno was completely defeated. "Frank..." As he closed h

My head buzzed, and I watched as Jack fell straight in front of me. He coughed up blood but still smiled at me. Frank, who was tripped by Kevin, was a step slower than Jack. He saw Jack blocking the shot for me and froze for a moment before quickly coming over, covering my eyes with his hand. "Charlotte, don't look..."I instinctively shook my head and dazedly ran over. "Jack..."All the kindness Jack had shown me in the past surged back in an instant. Tears streamed down my face as I reached out to cover the gunshot wound that was gushing blood. I had no idea what to say.Alan helped Officer Locke capture Kanby, quickly controlling Kevin and Simone. With Frank's assistance, Officer Locke helped him deal with Kevin and Simone. Alan thanked them and sent them away.Jane came to me, holding my hand. "Charlotte..."Jack's face gradually turned pale, and he weakly smiled at me. "I'm fine, Charlotte... don't be afraid, I really am fine."When I was on the boat, I deeply regretted tr

I had a dream. And it was a nightmare— In the end, I dreamt of my grandma, talking to me with a kind look on her face. But I couldn't understand what she was saying. It felt like she was saying goodbye. But why was she saying goodbye to me? "Grandma, don't go!" I saw my grandma leaving and I was shouting and chasing after her in my dream. She was walking slowly, but I couldn't catch up with her no matter what. Suddenly, the scene changed, and I began fall, which jolted me awake. "Don't move." I was covered in cold sweat, my calf held by some force. It hurt so much I frowned and gasped. Gradually calming down, I saw Frank massaging my calf. "You cramped up." I did cramp, but he reacted faster than I did. "Frank, how long until we get back to Jeswood?" Frank glanced at his watch. "Around eight or nine tonight." "I want to go see Grandma as soon as we get back." Frank paused, then said, "Okay." I felt something was off. "Are you

I held her hand tightly. "The incident happened too suddenly, so you don't need to feel guilty. With the sound of the explosion and everything in chaos, I'm just grateful you weren't hurt.""You don't even know how powerful that explosion was. Zachary pulled me away because the chandelier fell. Later, when you and Frank went to the hospital, there were several more explosions. Ms. Jackson…"At that moment, Jane suddenly shut her mouth.I sensed something was off. "What happened to my mom?"Jane hesitated, clearly hiding something from me.Before I could press her further, there was a knock on the door.Jane immediately went to open it."Prof. Kilburn, please come in quickly."Prof. Kilburn thought Jane's demeanor made it seem like he was walking into a tiger's den.But he didn't think too much of it, assuming Jane was just worried about her friend.Even Prof. Kilburn had arrived, it still couldn’t take my mind off what Jane had just said.I saw Jane trying to slip away and c
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 634
I rarely saw this kind of emotion from Frank.He seemed like he was about to break.“If Dr. Travis and Prof. Kilburn say the same thing, that I can’t be stimulated, will you still tell me the truth?”Frank didn’t want to lie, but he couldn’t help it.Grandma was too important.And this explosion was indeed caused by Jack, but if we were to investigate further, it was still because of them.Grandma was truly innocent.From the Shaw family to Jack, Grandma had endured so much.Frank had never been this… careful before.“I can be honest with you, but you… I know emotions can sometimes be uncontrollable, but you can’t be too agitated.”As I listened to Frank's words, my heart gradually sank.Combined with the dream I had earlier, I had a really bad feeling.It was a result I couldn’t even dare to think about, something I completely couldn’t accept.“Don’t tell me, Grandma…"‘No, it can’t be...’ I denied inwardly.Grandma was a good person. She should be alive and well.She

Frank noticed that the person in his arms had stopped moving.Once he confirmed she was asleep, he gently laid her on the bed.Then he went to prepare a warm towel and wiped away her tear stains.After that, he quickly took a shower and climbed under the covers, pulling her back into his embrace.I had a long dream.From seeing Grandma to the days spent with her.Then came the kidnapping, the explosion…And Grandma passed away without me being able to see her one last time.Who should I blame?Blame Jack?But ultimately, I should blame myself.It was my lack of ability that failed to protect them.Grandma and the baby.The baby…“Charlotte…”I heard Frank calling me. He was standing not far away, looking at my abdomen with sadness in his eyes.His tone was one I had never heard before, so humble.“Do you really not want our baby anymore?”I quickly placed my hand on my belly. “What are you talking about? Our baby is still here…”But Frank seemed to not hear my words

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
