Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 790
Right now, taking a risky move was the best way to break the deadlock. But… Charlotte put down her phone and asked Jane, “Are you serious? You just said someone stood by your side, and you were happy. Why are you saying this now? What you mean by breaking up—do you mean a permanent breakup or just a temporary separation until he handles things with Nina?” Jane wanted to have a drink, but she couldn’t because of the medication. She took a sip of water and said, “It’s a breakup. I can’t reach the Collins family. Having been there is enough for me. I don’t want him to sever ties with his family because of me. My biological father, though he has severed ties, we still have a father-daughter relationship. In the future, Zachary will go into politics. My father could become his liability. So, if I can’t help him, I shouldn’t hold him back.” Charlotte felt heartbroken. Frank had recorded these words in Madam Collins' room and sent them to Charlotte. She had intended to keep it f

“Came to check on you.”Zachary handed her the water.After she finished drinking, he took it back and asked, “Do you want more?”Jane shook her head, sat up, and wrapped herself in a blanket. Once her thoughts were clearer, she said, “I’m fine, you can go back.”Zachary looked at her without speaking.Jane also remained silent. After a while, she seemed to understand why Zachary was there.“It was Charlotte who said something, right?”“Yeah, she said you planned to break up with me.”Jane’s lips moved slightly.When she was chatting with Charlotte, she indeed had that thought.But in front of Zachary, she found it hard to express.Still, given the current situation, she felt she needed to make a decision.When one has something, they may not feel how important it is.Trying to lose it for a moment can help face one’s true feelings.Then it would be a choice between completely separating or overcoming obstacles together.“Yeah, I really…”“Put that thought away.”Zac

Zachary couldn't accept it. The moonlight fell on him, wrapping him in a layer of coldness. He sat on the coffee table, his long legs sprawling out, casually enclosing her in his territory. But he knew he couldn’t hold Jane back. When they were together, he had said that he wouldn’t restrain her. He allowed her to remain free and unrestrained. Even though he was reluctant, after a long silence, he still acquiesced to her wishes. “Okay.” The door opened and closed. The dim living room was left with a chill. If it weren’t for the lingering familiar scent of tobacco, Jane might have felt that Zachary had never been there. When Zachary left, he took Roy with him. But he still left a bodyguard to protect Jane, in case someone took advantage of the chaos to harm her. What he didn’t expect was that barely a few steps out the door, someone else entered. Jane disliked the dark, so she turned on all the lights in the room. She intended to call Charlot

“But I know this date isn’t 100% accurate. However, I consulted a doctor who said drinking this can help relieve menstrual pain.” It might have been the reason that Jane had bumped her head, she was being a little slow. “That’s too late, I already…” Her mouth always ran ahead while her brain lagged behind. After a short pause, she reached out and took the bowl, downing it in one gulp. “Thanks anyway.” Michael caught the main point. “Jane, you’re on your period?” “Yeah.” Jane grabbed her phone to place a delivery order. Michael inadvertently saw what she was doing and said, “I’ll go. Some delivery guys might not want to take this kind of order, I used to do deliveries.” This was the first time Jane had called a delivery guy to buy sanitary pads. She usually prepared in advance. But with everything going on lately and bumping her head, she had forgotten. “Wait.” Michael seemed to remember something and hurriedly added, “Call Mr. Collins. He’s your b

Zachary grabbed Jane's arm tightly, applying quite a bit of force. Before Jane could say anything, Michael hurried over, trying to help her. However, he was no match for Zachary's strength. "You’re hurting her, can’t you see she’s frowning?" "Roy." Zachary called for Roy, who walked in and pulled Michael outside. "Take off the apron." Roy removed Michael's apron, placing it on the shoe cabinet before closing the door. Michael couldn’t fight back against Roy. He was a professional bodyguard. Every time this happened, he hated himself for being unable to protect the person he liked. He glanced at Jane and saw her signaling him to leave, so he had no choice but to comply. Inside the room, Jane tried to break free from Zachary's grip, but his hand felt like a steel clamp. Her arm hurt to the point of numbness. Initially annoyed because of her period, her temper flared. "Let go!" Zachary yanked her over and threw her onto the sofa. When Jan

"I’m no match for you in a fight," Michael said angrily. "But you’re bullying Jane, so I'll definitely find a way to help her. The only thing I can do is to call Charlotte." Zachary wanted to say something, but Jane interrupted him. "Zachary, please leave my house." Zachary stepped in front of her, trying to hold her hand, but she avoided him. "Jane..." He opened his mouth to apologize, but Jane interrupted again. "Zachary, lowering yourself too much will only make you repulsive." "I actually have something important to discuss with you." Frank pulled Zachary out. Zachary shrugged him off, and Frank clicked his tongue. "What's with you? Don't need my help anymore? You begged me before, now you’re throwing a fit." Zachary lit a cigarette, his tone indifferent. "You didn’t help me either." Frank laughed in frustration. "I didn’t help? Do you have any conscience? I've been working day and night for you, and you call that no help?" Smoke curled from Zachary's lip

Jane cocked her brows. “This is the key point. He likes me, feels guilty towards me, and wants to apologize. Therefore, it stands to reason that he wants to reveal the truth to me.” Charlotte nodded in agreement. “But given the current situation, a person’s testimony is useless. We need both Nina and Michael’s statements to match in order to deal with Nina. At least we have a direction for the investigation.” “That’s true.” Jane flipped over and sat up. “Let’s ask during dinner.” Charlotte also got up and checked her phone. “They went drinking.” Jane just nodded and opened the bedroom door to go out. Michael came out of the kitchen and saw her, showing a gentle smile. “Jane, Charlotte, it’s time to eat.” Charlotte looked at the table filled with a variety of delicious dishes. She whispered to Jane, “He really put in effort for you, but unfortunately, feelings are uncontrollable.” Jane handed her cutlery. “Since you’re here, have a taste.” Charlotte wasn’t

“I can’t believe you guys didn’t tell me that you were coming to drink.” The sweet and innocent one was always carefree, completely oblivious. He raised his glass to clink with the two, cheerful, as if there was nothing in the world that could trouble him. “I feel like you’re isolating me now. Forget about Frank, he has a family. But Zachary, what’s your excuse? I haven’t seen you out drinking these days. You have a girlfriend or something?” Zachary didn’t even spare him a glance and just drank silently. Charlie then noticed something was off and asked Frank, “Frank, did his true love abandon him again?” Frank leaned back on the sofa, his long fingers holding the wine glass, making it look like a piece of art. He spoke in a laid-back tone, “Not exactly.” Charlie sat down next to Zachary and casually put his arm around his shoulder. “Your true love hasn’t abandoned you then why do you look like you’ve broken up? I’ve never looked this way when I broke up.” Zac

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

Her lips were suddenly covered by his cool ones.She widened her eyes in shock.Using all her strength, she pushed him away."What are you doing?""Isn't this what you said? We’re even, aren’t we?"Westley replied unhurriedly, "You kissed me just now, and now I've kissed you. That makes us even."‘What?’Jordan was at a loss for words to describe her feelings at that moment.So, when her slap landed on Westley's face, she didn't even realize what she had done.The man's face tilted slightly from the impact.Even Westley hadn't expected it. He was momentarily stunned, then pressed his tongue against his left cheek.His face showed no particular emotion, but the faint trace of amusement in his eyes hadn't completely faded.Seeing this, Jordan felt a chill run down her spine.It would have been better if he hadn't smiled."Well, uh... it's because you started it... I didn't mean to... If you hadn't gone too far, I wouldn't have hit you..."After she stammered her explanatio

"Yeah."Westley didn't put any distance between them, lazily replying, "You bought all of it. I don't even know where to buy it."If Westley wanted something, there were plenty of people who would go to great lengths to get it for him.It was just an ordinary body wash. Finding out where to buy it would have been a trivial matter.Jordan's attention shouldn't have been on the body wash. It should have been on the fact that he had just stepped out of the shower, wearing nothing but a bath towel.But instead, she was entirely drawn into the topic."Then I'll buy you a new one. Don't use the one that has expired—what if you have an allergic reaction?""Okay."Jordan immediately took out her phone and placed an order.After she finished, she even showed him the confirmation."It'll arrive in a few days. Use something else in the meantime."Westley stared at her silently for a few seconds before speaking."Jordy, I'm sorry."That one apology was enough to make Jordan come back

Jordan really wouldn’t be able to keep an eye on him. If she fell asleep and he left, she wouldn’t even know.By that time, who knows what excuse he would come up with.But staying in the same room together wasn’t appropriate given their current relationship.Westley spoke up, offering her a solution.“You can sleep on the sofa. Even if you fall asleep, you’ll notice if I make any moves.”That sounded like a good idea.Jordan immediately agreed.But if she had thought about it more carefully, she might have realized how unusual it was for Westley to suggest a woman sleep on the sofa.Even though they were about to divorce, they still had a bond from growing up together.If not as a husband, then as a “brother,” he shouldn’t let his “sister” sleep on the sofa.He only suggested it because he knew she would agree without hesitation.Westley handed her a blanket and, in an unhurried manner, loosened his cufflinks and tie.He casually asked, “Do you want to shower first?”Jord

“Why?” asked Jane.“Because such an opportunity is rare,” replied Zachary.Westley indeed cherished the opportunity tonight.Regarding potential rivals, he had investigated a lot.Oliver was the only person who was a little close to Jordan.So tonight, he was confident he could remain emotionally stable and have a proper conversation with Jordan.But he hadn’t expected to encounter a problem as soon as they got off the plane.“Jordan!”Leanne, holding a large bouquet of sunflowers, immediately passed the flowers to Jordan upon seeing her.“If I hadn’t asked, I wouldn’t have been able to catch you. It’s been so long since we’ve gathered together.”“No matter what happens between you and my brother, we can’t cut off our relationship, right?”Jordan had always had a good relationship with the members of the Howard familyNo one treated her poorly or like an outsider.During her school years, any troublemakers had been dealt with by the Howard family.Especially Leanne, who h

Zachary was rendered speechlessFrank teased him, "Family status."Zachary ignored him, as if Frank's family status was any higher."Dominic is keeping an eye on things over there, which is reassuring. The finished products have already been produced, and Jordan helped take some photos. The promotional effect has been good.""Dominic is reliable. It's just a pity I can't model for the later set of the clothes' promotions. Honestly, I really wanted to wear them, the patterns in the later designs are even more intricate."Charlotte glanced at her belly. "You're not showing yet, so you can wear them. I had Dominic send them over. I was in a rush to come back today because of Jordan and didn't bring them, but when the package arrives, you can wear them for the shoot."Jane sighed. "I wonder if the girl will still have time to help me take photos in a few days. I want her to take my maternity photos too.""Whether or not she gets divorced, if you ask her, she’ll definitely come.

“Let’s go back to the the Howard family’s residence.”“It’s too late, I don’t want to disturb them.”Jordan gritted her teeth. “Then let’s go to your house. It’s so big, we can each take a room and not disturb each other.”Westley calmly took a sip of tea. “It’s not very convenient.”Jordan’s temper flared. “Let’s just stay in a hotel!”Westley replied, “There are too many people watching me in Nelana. I don’t want to be misunderstood.”Jane and Charlotte exchanged a look.They both understood each other’s thoughts.Before, they had thought Westley was calculating and manipulative.He had always been clever at using tricks to handle Jordan.Now, they realized it wasn’t just that.This man had a thick skin—he could say anything without blinking.But they didn’t fully understand Westley’s intentions.He clearly had the chance to spend time alone with Jordan, perhaps to explain some things and clear the air.Yet he kept refusing.If he felt it was inconvenient, if he didn’t
