Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 714
I poked Frank in back of his waist. He glanced at me without much emotion. I couldn't help but feel amused. ‘So childish.’He kept on play with this little game of pretending to be angry, waiting for me to coax him. When we arrived at the restaurant, Jane and the others were already seated. It was a long table. Jane and Michael sat at one end, while Zachary and Nina were at the other. Nina held an ice pack, trying to place it on Zachary's face, but he turned his head away. The lighting was dim on this side, so I couldn't see clearly, but it seemed like the sides of Zachary's face were different. The left side looked a bit swollen. I sat down next to Jane and asked, "Did you hit him again?" Jane nodded. "He never listened, so I had to resort to violence." I rubbed my forehead. Michael was nearby, smiling innocently at me, making it hard for me to say much. "You handle it yourself, but if it really doesn't work out, let me know." Jane waved her han

After all, they were friends.Jane's eyes sparkled mischievously. "You're just worried about Frank."I shot her a sidelong glance. "No, I'm concerned about you. If he goes crazy, you’ll definitely be hurt."Jane clinked her wine glass against my juice. I could only drink juice while breastfeeding. "If I need your help, I'll let you know." "Okay." While we were talking, Michael had already cut the steak, even arranging it into a heart shape on a plate for Jane. "Hey, Jane, don't just drink, eat something too. You don't want to have an upset stomach." "Okay." Jane picked up her cutlery to eat, and Michael cut some roast meat. I couldn't help but sigh at the scene, but then I heard Frank's cool voice beside me. "Jealous?" Before I could respond, he added, "You make it look like I haven’t done the same for you. What's there to be jealous of?" I gave him a light shove and placed some food on his place. As I placed the food in his plate, I asked, "Satisfie

"Eat up."Zachary had a moment of impulsiveness and handed her the steak, then also peeled a crab and a lobster for her.Jane and I watched the whole thing and exchanged a glance.Jane texted me. "Did you see that? She's provoking me."I replied, "Did it ignite your competitive spirit?"Jane said, "If she had come back a while ago, maybe I wouldn't have been so preoccupied. I just wanted to enjoy my vacation."I could tell Jane hadn't completely let go of Zachary, otherwise, she wouldn't be acting here with Michael. She would have long since turned fiction into reality.With her fiery personality, if she really liked him, she would have made a move by now."Charlotte."Hearing the voice, I looked at my mom. "What is it, Mom?""I finished eating with Jason. We're taking a stroll, and Sparrow is with us. You two take your time eating."I nodded. "Okay."Jane also stood up and waved at Michael. "We're leaving."Michael, like a cute puppy, hurriedly approached his owner and ci

They didn't leave their seats to watch the fireworks, they did it to give Charlotte and Frank a moment alone.Just then, Jane also wanted to go back and rest, she felt a bit tired after a long day."Jane, do you want to see farther?" Although Jane wasn't drunk, she had drunk enough for her mind to feel a bit hazy.She asked, "How far can we see?"Michael bent down and lifted Jane onto his shoulders.Jane gasped in surprise, and once she stabilized herself, excitement followed, lighting up her smile like a blooming flower.She let down her tied-up long hair, shaking it out, her alcohol-tinged eyes looking particularly enchanting.She patted Michael's head and shouted, "Speed up!"Michael laughed in response and immediately took big strides forward.His height was 6.07 feet, he effortlessly carried Jane, who was also taller than average among girls.They stood out in the crowd like a striking landscape.Good-looking couples attracted the scattered tourists' attention, and so

Because she turned around and didn't see Zachary's figure.The elevator ascended, and Michael kept talking to her.But she felt a headache and so her replies were that sincere.However, Michael didn't mind and kindly helped her back to her room.He guided her to sit on the sofa and went to get her some water.Then he made her bed while he took a blanket to sleep on the sofa in the living room.Suddenly, Jane felt as if she had sobered up. She said, "Michael, I don't want to act anymore."A lengthy silence ensued.Michael stood in place with the blanket, looking at Jane.But his eyes were filled with grievance.Jane rubbed her face. "I really appreciate it. You've been very good to me, but our relationship can't progress further, so I don't want to hold you back. Your job is acting, you don't need to do that in real life. Just be yourself."Michael tightened his grip on the blanket, his lips moved slightly.He wanted to ask why but felt it unnecessary.The answer was alread

When Jane went to the front desk to check in, she was informed that Frank had booked the entire floor.They handed her the room keys for the other rooms directly.She twitched her lips a few times, silently cursing Frank for being a scheming fox.He was intentionally avoiding any mention of her drama with Zachary, probably because he and Charlotte needed to resolve their little conflict tonight.Ding—Lost in her thoughts, the elevator arrived.Jane stepped out.She specifically asked the front desk for a room key that was in the opposite direction from Michael's.As she was about to swipe her card, a familiar male voice suddenly called out.Even though she recognized it, it still startled her."Why did you get a room by yourself?"He was truly relentless.Jane regretted ever putting on this act.The only satisfying part had been giving him two slaps.Taking a deep breath, she turned around. "Mr. Collins, can't you sleep at this hour? Have you come just to haunt me?"At

He also knew why things had turned out this way.Because he was the one who had caused the situation today."You just need to tell me what will make you feel better."Jane smiled, but it was merely a slight curve of her lips, her beautiful face showed no hint of joy."Mr. Collins, why seek a fight with me when you have such a considerate and gentle childhood sweetheart?" Even if Zachary was clever, he couldn't understand how the topic suddenly shifted to Nina."I only have a bit of an emotional connection with her from growing up together, it's hardly enough to call her a childhood sweetheart, let alone a true love. Who told you that?"Jane couldn't possibly keep this from Charlotte, so Frank would explain the truth to Charlotte.It was impossible for Frank to have created this misunderstanding.He hadn't considered that Nina was involved in this.Initially, he thought he and Jane had drifted apart because of the hurtful things he had said, and now, if he was suffering, it w
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 721
The words sounded quite reasonable.Jane thought that no one would belittle themselves like that.If he had immediately found Michael after her at the airport, it would have made sense for him to go a bit crazy.Perhaps he couldn't accept that the person he had pursued for so long had moved on seamlessly.But..."Okay, since you said you liked me and that you would do anything as long as I forgave you, then promise me one thing."Zachary said, "I can agree to anything except giving you up."That sentence alone closed off all her options.Jane leaned against the door, fell into silence for a moment, and then decided to be straightforward."Zachary, I was impulsive when I first teased you, and I owe you an apology. I also thank you for liking me, but we can't be together."They had no future.Zachary was momentarily stunned, the topic had shifted too abruptly.He asked, "Is it because of Michael?"Jane replied, "No.""Then why?""Because you and I come from two different w

Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1358
At noon, only Whitney admitted that Jane was her sister-in-law. Jane even gave her a little gift.As for Caleb, neither Jane or Zachary cared if he admitted it or not.They thought Whitney had married Caleb for the sake of business.But just now, the two of them were so intimate, unable to part with each other, and even had a visible kiss mark that couldn't be hidden by a turtleneck.Given this relationship, wasn't it reasonable for Caleb to admit that they were his brother-in-law and sister-in-law?However, Caleb didn't really know them well, and they didn't know his personality either. Naturally, he couldn't just say that he recognized them as his in-laws.As for Westley, everyone knew him well.Besides, Westley had married Jane's younger sister, so he should be recognizing them as well."That’s unnecessary, Mr. Hilton," said Zachary. "Jordan is Jane's sister, both of them are from the Jackson family, though they've been separated for years due to some unfortunate circumstanc
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1357
"Since Mr. Hilton spoils his wife so much, how about you drink this wine for Whitney instead?"Caleb curved his lips into a smile, picked up his glass, and said, "You’re not going to double the amount if I drink for her, right, Mrs. Smith?"Before Charlotte could speak, Frank intervened.He placed one hand on Charlotte's shoulder, gently swirled his wine glass with the other, his posture relaxed and casual."Since Mr. Hilton is so interested, how can I not satisfy your requests on my turf?"He even brought Zachary into it. "Today is your big day, it's your stage, so set an example by taking the first round."Zachary glanced at him indifferently. He was pretending to be drunk today, but Frank hadn’t gone easy on him.He had originally planned to use water for his drinks, but Frank had switched it back to real alcohol.Now, he was starting trouble again."Oh!" Frank suddenly seemed to remember something. "I forgot, Mr. Collins drank a lot at lunch. I guess the alcohol in his sto

No one had called for dinner yet.She knew that Zachary and Jane were getting married today, so they might be staying in the room for a while.Caleb and Whitney were the ones they thought would be spending time together.So, she first knocked on Charlotte's room.She figured that they wouldn't necessarily want to spend time together right now.But she was wrong.No one answered Charlotte's door.However, Jane sent her a message saying she would get up soon.Then Charlotte also spoke up in their group chat.That was when she came to call Whitney.She guessed that the two should have finished their intimate act by now...Whitney, ignoring the discomfort in her body, used both hands and feet to escape from Caleb's embrace.She first responded to Jordan at the door and then rushed into the bathroom.Caleb came in shortly after.When his bare back pressed against her, Whitney was startled. "Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"Caleb held her and chuckled. "Honey, have you eve

Westley patted her on the head. "You're asking me about this because you want to help Mandy, or..."Mandy and Jordan hadn't been in touch much over the past few years, but before university, they had a pretty good relationship.When Mandy ran into trouble and went to the north, Jordan was furious.It took him several days to calm her down.But then, unexpectedly, his relationship with her had also fallen apart.Looking back now, he wondered if it was because Carter always treated him and maintained his health, but in doing so, perhaps he had also pushed the love out of his own life.Jordan shook her head. "I won’t interfere with other people’s relationships. I'm just asking out of curiosity."Westley didn't expect that but still told her about the situation."Caleb did indeed relent. He will give Carter a chance to meet with Mandy. And this was something, Zachary, Frank, and I, were all aware of but haven't spoken about it openly. Zachary is pretending to be drunk."Jordan had

Caleb and Zachary had a drink and then left with Whitney.Carter didn't even have time to drink with Zachary and hurriedly followed them.At that moment, Zachary's and the others were here to watch the show.But they didn't expect, when they turned the corner, to see Caleb pinning Whitney against the wall, kissing her.The man's brows and eyes were full of flirtatious charm, and he blocked Whitney's profile, glancing over.He asked, "What's wrong? Haven't you seen a married couple kiss?"There was no sign of Carter anywhere.They didn't want to interrupt the couple's private moment, so Westley and Frank escorted Zachary to his room, then went back to their own rooms with their wives.Jane pretended to wipe Zachary's face and was about to leave.But Zachary grabbed her and pulled her into the bed."Mr. Collins, you're getting more and more skilled at pretending to be drunk."Zachary opened his eyes and kissed her forehead.His hoarse voice carried a hint of weakness."Honey

Back then, when Rebecca caused such a scene, it was like she was a clown.And they hadn't suspected anything. Nathan and Jane looked very similar, and what Nathan said was very reasonable. The Jackson family had suffered a major blow, so they were certainly more meticulous about such matters.They wouldn't make such mistakes.The room was in an uproar, no one expected the situation to reverse like this.The reporters didn't even eat, quickly grabbing their cameras, sending out messages, and fighting for the headline.Nathan didn't say much more, handing the microphone to the emcee before walking off the stage.The emcee, amid the fading music, announced in a loud voice, "The ceremony is complete—"Petals rained down from above.Zachary lowered his head and kissed Jane, asking her, "Are you satisfied?"Jane glared at him, "Are you trying to get your mom killed from a heart attack for me?""That won't happen," replied Zachary. "I know what I'm doing. After all, she made a mista

But he didn't explain. Instead, he asked, "You're really cold-hearted. Your brother's crying like that, and you can't even manage to squeeze out a tear?"Whitney had always been emotionally detached.She did have some emotions stirring inside, but shedding tears was very difficult for her.She had never cried since she was little.Because crying meant getting punished.But before she could say anything, she heard Caleb whisper something flirtatious into her ear.She could remain emotionless and composed about almost everything.But she simply couldn't resist Caleb's teasing. The private things he said to her, especially in public, always caught her off guard.She cared about her image.Unlike him, a charming young man with plenty of experience in the art of flirting, who could easily say whatever he wanted in any setting.She didn't know how to rebut him and could only remain silent, her gaze fixed on the stage.She was more curious about why Nathan was getting up to speak.
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1351
The emcee announced that it was time for the couple to kiss. Jordan quickly went up to prepare the rings, not noticing the change in Westley's expression.She was then busy with handing over the rings.Now her task was complete.Westley took her to the main table and made her drink some water.The dishes began to come out one after another, and everyone started eating.But Rebecca wanted to leave.Frank stopped her. "Nathan hasn't spoken yet. Godmother, if you leave now, it's too early. You've come all the way here, just stay a little longer."Rebecca didn't understand. "What is Nathan going to say?"Frank replied, "You'll find out when you listen in."Rebecca wanted to leave because she didn't want to hear the sweet words that Zachary was going to say to Jane on the stage.Jane hadn't even shed a tear, but Zachary, a grown man, was crying uncontrollably.She couldn't bear to face it.But it was obvious that Frank didn't want her to leave, so she couldn't.The two of them
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1350
Jane understood the reasoning, but as a woman, hearing about Mandy's experiences truly made her feel heartbroken.She said with a sigh, "Frank thinks the same way, right?"Charlotte nodded. "Yes, Frank won't completely offend Carter. Who knows if people will remain safe and healthy for the next few decades?"Jane, however, thought of someone. "Tanner.""We don't know much about Tanner, and we're not sure how much she can help. By the way, it was Carter who performed Zachary's mother's surgery."Charlotte pondered for a moment. "Zachary should also follow Frank's lead, stepping down a little. After all, it was the Hilton family who acted, and it has nothing to do with him. You can't blame him for it."Jane, if she hadn't already done her hair, would have scratched her head.Her mind was about to explode."Jane, I think we should just go with the flow. When it comes to feelings, it's hard for outsiders to interfere. Look at me and Westley, even as your own sister, you couldn't ch
