Chapter 683

Author: Lean
Charlie dropped Nina off and drove to Jane's place.

When he arrived downstairs, he called Jane, but she didn't answer. Instead, he received a text back.

"Man, I'm asleep."

However, he learned from the security guard that she had just left with a young man and gone into the alley across the street.

Jane wasn't famous like a celebrity, but she was outgoing and could chat with anyone. With her strikingly beautiful face, it was no surprise that people would look twice.

Having lived there for a while, she had become familiar with the security guard. During holidays, she often brought small gifts or local specialties for him.

So, whenever any unfamiliar men came looking for her, the security guard would notify her first instead of letting them in directly.

The security guard assumed Charlie was just a persistent suitor who had been turned down, hence mentioning that Jane had a boyfriend—one who was both younger and better looking.

Given how beautiful Jane was, it was only nat

The book title is "The Ex-Husband's Regret." I feel like Ryan Frost has been out of the picture for a long time now. Has this book just become Chatlotte and friends ongoing drama?

    She just wanted a change of pace. Receiving Charlie's WhatsApp message now, she felt it was time to clarify things. "Mr. Lennox, you and Mr. Smith are friends, and I'm Charlotte's best friend. There are some things I don't want to say too bluntly. I appreciate your feelings, but I cannot reciprocate. I'm sorry, you will find the right person. As for me, I like this younger guy, so please don't be so involved. You're just a friend, not a father."If her own father couldn't control her, how could Charlie? The only person that she might listen to was Charlotte. But Charlotte had always indulged her, being happy together when she was happy and sad together when she was sad. She held a place in her heart for her but wouldn't act like a mother, controlling everything and forbidding her from doing anything. In life, whether good or bad, one had to experience it for themselves. If someone could tell her she would have parents like that, she would rather be reborn as a dog than

    In a place like this, people usually squeezed towards the back. Ironically, there were more empty seats at the front. At first, there was someone sitting next to her, but she didn't pay much attention. The movie was of a genre she loved, and with someone beside her passing snacks and drinks, she became engrossed in it. The first to notice Zachary was Michael. However, he wouldn't bring it up. "Do you want some jelly, Jane?" "Sure." Jane always wanted something to snack on while binge-watching. She hadn't had dinner, so this was the perfect opportunity to munch on some snacks. Later, she could hit the gym to burn off the calories. She couldn't let anything spoil her mood. But unexpectedly, someone did. The jelly Michael handed her was abruptly snatched away from her lips. She turned her head to see who had the audacity to steal jelly from a stranger in the middle of the night! Seeing Zachary's almost smirking expression made her freeze for a moment. It wa

    Jane was momentarily stunned. After she reacted, she clumsily tried to get up but was firmly held down by him at her slender waist. "Take your dirty paws off me." Zachary not only didn't let go but pressed her closer to himself. Jane could only move one hand. She couldn't push him away, so she covered his mouth and teasingly said, "So, Mr. Collins likes to be forceful." "Let go of Jane!" Michael threw away his snacks and grabbed Jane's arm, trying to pull her out of Zachary's embrace. Although Zachary was unwell, he had been trained since childhood. Naturally, Michael couldn't successfully pull Jane away from him. Seeing Jane frown, he scolded, "You’re hurting her. Her wrist has turned red." The people in Room 3 were attracted by the chaotic scene in the front row. Since Michael couldn't pull Jane away, he turned to grab Zachary's wrist, trying to make him let go of Jane. But his hand was like a vise, not budging at all. "I'm sorry, Jane…" Michael looked a

    Jane was also a smart person and quickly understood Zachary's intentions.He spoke in a seemingly grand manner but was actually testing her.As long as she opened her mouth to tell Michael to leave, he would get what he wanted.He cleared the room, and she told Michael leave.It merely confirmed that she had not truly moved on from him.To her, he was still more important than the new guy.Jane smiled faintly. "I refuse, Mr. Collins. If you don't let go of me, I'll have Michael call Charlotte. If a boy calls Charlotte at this hour, what do you think Frank would do?"Who knew Frank's character better than Zachary?And Jane indeed was capable of doing such things.He held her tightly but eventually released her.Jane immediately stepped out of his embrace and left with Michael.Even in autumn, with a knitted dress and a coat draped over it, her charm remained undiminished.The exposed section of her straight, well-proportioned calf was extremely graceful.As they were about

    Zachary's head ached intensely. Initially, he thought he would feel better after the IV drip, but now it felt like his blood pressure had risen due to anger. His vision blurred slightly. He wanted to say something, but Jane had already shaken off his hand. When he tried to grab her again, he missed his mark. Then, everything went dark, and he collapsed. Jane instinctively reached out to support him. This wasn't just because he was Zachary, she would have helped anyone who suddenly fainted in front of her. "Stop pretending. If you don't get up soon, I'm letting go. If you fall and hurt yourself, don't blame me," she said, preparing to release him, but when she saw that he really was about to fall, she gritted her teeth and held him up. But her strength was limited, so she called out to Michael. "Help me out here." Michael was reluctant but still took over holding Zachary from Jane, though he immediately thought about just dropping him. However, he couldn't ruin his

    Jane replied instantly, "Goodnight".Michael leaned against the entrance, smiling like a three-year-old who just received candy. When Zachary woke up in the hospital, he still felt disoriented. Seeing the driver by the bedside, he frowned. "What are you doing here?" Why wasn’t it Jane? The driver poured him some water. "I was worried about you." Zachary was indeed very thirsty, and after drinking a bit, his mind began to function again. "You brought me to the hospital?" The driver nodded. Zachary frowned even more. "What did you see?" The driver answered honestly, "I saw you talking to Miss Greenwood, and then you suddenly fainted. She couldn't hold you up, but luckily her boyfriend was there to help. I hurried over and brought you to the hospital." Hearing the words "her boyfriend," Zachary's brows furrowed even more. "She said that herself?" "What?" The driver was momentarily confused. Zachary pressed. "Did you see them go home together?" The driver sho

    But he really had no other choice. He went directly to find Jane, but she wouldn't listen to him. There had to be an opportunity to sit down and talk things through. He cleared his throat. "Do you have any suggestions?" "Just hurry up and get this illness of yours treated," Frank said as he stood up, adjusting his cuffs. "You still need to help with my wedding." Zachary opened his mouth to refuse but then realized something. "You're really something, always scheming." Frank shot him a sidelong glance and walked out. After several busy days, Jane finally found a suitable venue for a traditional wedding and spent a long time negotiating before finalizing it. "Jane, have something to drink." For these past few days, Michael had been by her side. His drama had finished filming, and he was waiting for news from other productions. Jane took the cup and noticed it was warm. "Where did you get this hot drink from?" "I sweet-talked the lady in the lobby a bit, and she

    Frank finished his meeting and unlocked his phone, only to find a message from Zachary. However, another message caught his attention. Naturally, there was a priority, so he quickly exited the chat with Zachary and jumped into the other conversation. Mrs. Smith. "Frank, Jane helped us find a wedding venue!" He actually had his own plans for the wedding venue. But since Jane was so dedicated, his wife would surely appreciate it, so he decided to let them handle it. He replied to his wife. "In that case, when would it be convenient for Ms. Charlotte and me to visit the civil affairs bureau?" While waiting for a response, he casually acknowledged Zachary. "I'm getting married now. What about you? Are you going to show up while hanging on an IV?" Zachary replied instantly. "If you have the guts to get married now, I'll crawl over." ‘Is he crazy?’Frank ignored that message and opened the pinned chat with his wife. Mrs. Smith. "I'm available anytime, it just depends on

    "Jane, don't argue with Zachary. This time, I am staying here voluntarily," said Jordan."I’ve made a bet with Westley, and there will be a resolution in the end."Jane nodded. "I can let you handle this matter yourself, but you have to promise me that you won’t let yourself get hurt, and you won’t just keep sacrificing yourself. If it becomes unbearable, give it up. I’ll always be here to support you."Jordan nodded. "Okay."The two sisters chatted for a long time, and only when Jane started to feel sleepy did they end the video call.Jordan handed the phone to Buck and closed the door to her room.Buck was left standing there.He felt like he had been completely abandoned, as if everything around him had fallen apart.Anyway, as a sandwich in the middle, he was already crushed, so it didn’t matter anymore.For several days, Jordan got up to eat, and the food was always food prepared by the chef.She hadn’t seen Westley around.She couldn’t really say how she felt. She just

    "He is faking his psychological illness," Jordan rebutted.Even if he had one, it had nothing to do with her.Even she didn’t have any psychological issues, how could someone with such a strong mind like Westley have any psychological issues?He shouldn’t blame her for everything.Having seen enough, she turned around and walked away.But Carter called her back. "He once took good care of you, and you're going to be this heartless?"Jordan wasn’t familiar with Carter. He was usually a man of few words with a cold personality.If she greeted him, he wouldn’t respond. If she talked too much, she might get an icy look in return.She really didn’t expect that one day, he would try to mediate between her and Westley."You should focus more on your own matters," she said.His own love life was a mess, so what right did he have to interfere in hers?Jordan’s emotions were written all over her face, she didn’t hide them.Carter could guess how she was feeling just by looking at her

    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
