Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 814
“But Zachary…” Jane seemed unable to find the right words to express her feelings. After a moment of thought, she said, “He… is different.”There was a hint of bitterness in her smile.“My breakup with him wasn’t just because of Nina. It was also because I felt I didn’t have the courage to go against the whole world with him. Because I loved him, I didn’t want him to become an enemy of his family and the world just because of me. He started off as a fine young man, but in the end, he would have nothing. Michael, since you said you like me, I think you can understand what I mean.”Listening to her confession about Zachary, Michael felt a pang of pain in his heart.But he believed that Jane was suffering even more.From the moment he met her, she had always been vibrant and radiant.Like a bird soaring freely, only finding a branch to rest on when she was tired.After resting, she would continue to embrace the sky.No one could make her stop flying.But now, she was here, expres

After listening, Zachary asked in a cold voice, “Abroad?”Ronan nodded. “We traced the call and found it was from a public phone booth.”“Since it didn’t get through and there’s no surveillance, we can’t determine who Nina contacted.”Zachary furrowed his brows but didn’t linger on this minor issue.He tidied himself up and went downstairs, only to be stopped by his parents.His grandparents were also present.It was yet another intense family meeting.He sat down on a single sofa, crossing his long legs and idly twirling a lighter in his hand.He didn’t speak.After a moment of silence in the living room, it was Rebecca who broke the ice.“Zachary, the child’s not yours. You should already know that, right?”“Yep.”“What are your plans then?”“What plans?”Zachary’s indifferent demeanor didn’t anger the Collins family. Since he had always been like this growing up, they felt it was a good thing—rational, detached, and careful, not swayed by emotions.Who would have th

Nina truly didn’t expect Zachary to visit her ward.However, she soon managed to pull a hint of mockery from within.For Jane, Zachary was willing to do anything.“Zachary, I don’t want to hold a wedding with you.”Zachary was peeling an apple, the knife dancing between his long fingers, leaving a vivid pattern on the fruit.Upon hearing this, the man didn’t even look up.His expression remained calm, focused solely on the apple.Nina could only see a girl-like face.But she didn’t care what he was carving, nor did she want to know.“I know you want me to be a shield to protect Jane, but I don’t want that.”Zachary set the apple down on the side table, his pale fingers still gripping the fruit knife.A slight movement caused the blade to gleam coldly.“What’s wrong? Weren’t you the one who would do whatever it takes to marry me?”Zachary’s lips barely curved into a faint smile. “Marrying me always comes at a painful cost. Unfortunately, it’s too late for you to realize thi

Michael raised his hand and mimed a zipper motion across his lips.The moment Jane's plane landed in the capital, Zachary received the news.He only learned of her arrival and didn’t try to stop her or seek her out.To his surprise, she contacted him first.“Where are you?” “Let’s talk over the phone.”Had she grown so distant after just a few days apart?Jane didn’t want to lose the bet so easily and wanted to do something. “If you don’t tell me where you are, I can just ask Frank.”Zachary simply told her to come to the First Infirmary before hanging up.Jane's companion, Michael, who was nearby, picked up on the tension.“Jane, you seem upset?”Jane shook her head. It was colder in Jeswood than in Larecton. She put on her red coat and walked out of the airport without replying.Upon arriving at the hospital, they headed to the VIP ward.Seeing Roy, Jane greeted him and asked, “Where’s Zachary?”Roy pointed towards the smoking area, and Jane walked over.Michael follo

Jane finally came to her senses and said thank you. "There's no need to thank me, Jane," Michael carefully applied burn ointment on Jane's hand. He even blew on it to prevent her from feeling pain. Jane had endured much worse injuries than this. However, looking at Michael's cautious demeanor warmed her heart. "Michael." "What is it, Jane?" Jane reached out to touch his head and said, "You won." Michael smiled. "Jane, then let bygones be bygones. We can’t go back in time, so let’s look forward." "Okay." Jane nodded. After applying the medicine, the two of them left the hospital. Roy followed Zachary and hid in a corner. He sighed softly to himself. When Rebecca found Michael's house, she was informed by Madam Hall that Jane had returned to Jeswood. She hurried back to Jeswood. The person she arranged said that Jane was on her way home, so she quickly instructed the driver to head there. The taxi didn’t enter the neighborhood but stopped a

Rebecca's expression suddenly turned darkened. It seemed that Zachary's determination to protect Jane could not be shaken by anyone. For the sake of a woman, he risked his own future. This caused Rebecca to find Jane even more displeasing. Jane was very good at reading people's emotions, since she was young, she had known when her father was drunk to a certain extent that she would be hit. Since Rebecca did not like her, she felt no need to say much. At that moment, she had broken up with Zachary. Moreover, even if she wanted to please this future mother-in-law, the other party was clearly unmoved. She didn’t want to be an ass-licker, but kept the basic manners. "Is there anything else you want? If not, I'll be going home." Rebecca hesitated, she did not want the wedding to happen, but she also did not wish for Zachary to reconcile with Jane. There was one more thing—Zachary had said not to ruin the wedding, or else… Jane noticed Rebecca was hesitating but

Madam Collins held onto her walking stick. "Speaking of which, we also had our faults." Rebecca looked at Madam Collins. Madam Collins continued, "Things will develop in the opposite direction when they reach a certain point. Those who are overly calm and rational find it hardest to navigate matters of the heart." Rebecca pursed her lips. "I should have arranged for him to marry a wealthy young lady when he was growing up, instead of letting him be free for a few more years." Eric had been at work all day and only learned about these matters when he returned at night. But he brought good news. "The men at the hospital sent word back that Nina refused to hold a wedding with Zachary." Nina was now openly confronting Zachary and no longer cared about her image. She had gone crazy at the hospital, smashing anything she could. Zachary sat there, calmly watching her destroy things, then raised his hand slightly, and Roy immediately brought forward the compensation.

Jane hung up the phone, not wanting to continue listening. The content wasn’t really appropriate.She went to the kitchen and asked, "What did you make?"At Region Gardens.Charlotte pressed against the man who was moving closer. "What does Zachary mean?"Frank truthfully informed her.Charlotte furrowed her brows. "His intentions are good, but the method... Jane's quite a carefree person, she doesn't mind much, but I think Zachary's approach is somewhat biased.""Doesn't matter."Frank caught her hand that was pressing against him and kissed it. "You should worry more about me."Michael made a couple of dishes.All of them were Jane's favorites.Jane eagerly grabbed some food and placed it in her mouth, giving a thumbs up. "Delicious."Michael served her some soup.Jane took a sip, clicking her tongue. "When did you learn to cook?"His cooking skills were really quite good.Michael nodded. "I worked in a restaurant before."Jane thought about his family situation. "How

Leanne nodded, and there was sadness in her eyes.She asked, "Do you know that Westley has already quit his job and handed over the position of the head of the Howard family?"Zachary knew for sure. "You are the first female to take charge of the Howard family."The Howard family didn't practice gender bias.But there had been an old family rule passed down by their ancestors.The leader’s position was passed down to males, not females.The reasoning was that after women married and had children, they would be too concerned about their own family matters, unlike men who could fully focus on the development of the family.Maybe that was why she had cut off all emotions."Have a child soon."When Leanne heard Zachary's words, she didn't insist on taking Westley away anymore.She just spoke up for Westley. "Mr. Collins, you know Westley is sick. Don’t be too hard on him. After all, it was he who hurt my little sister-in-law, and he’s the most upset about it."She had to let Zac

Carter closed the medical record book and put the pen in the pocket on his chest.He said indifferently to Zachary, "It's nothing serious. I have the miscarriage prevention medicine from my sister-in-law. It's just temporary bleeding caused by emotional excitement, but it has stopped now. A couple of days of rest will be enough."Jordan felt too guilty to lift her head. "Jane, I... "Jane covered her mouth. "I don’t want to hear those words anymore. Don't blame yourself for everything. When you’re scared, the first person you think of should be me. That’s because we’re sisters.""But...""Have you not eaten anything?" Jane interrupted and looked at Roy. "Go buy something. Something sweet."Roy immediately went to take care of it.Jane patted Jordan's hand. "Once you eat, get some rest. This single-occupancy room has a big bed, and no one will disturb you.""We’ll talk about everything tomorrow."Jordan didn’t know how to apologize or what to say.She was physically and mental

Westley immediately wrapped Jordan in a blanket.So, he couldn’t avoid Jane's slap.After two slaps, the fingerprints were clearly visible.He didn’t care, reaching out to push Zachary out of the room.Zachary couldn’t see anything but Jane in his eyes.He was too worried.From the moment she received the news, Jane ran to the car, then onto the private plane.It was only a little over two hours of flight, but he was so anxious that his heart stopped several times.After getting off the plane, she rushed over.Now, she was extremely upset."Don’t touch me." He had no good attitude towards Westley anymore.He directly instructed someone to come in and control Westley.Jax also came in with people to protect Westley, but Westley stopped them at the door.Carter stepped ou t of the crowd, walking in with an air of indifference.He swiftly injected Westley with a sedative.Jane ordered everyone to leave the room.Zachary, still worried, wanted to call a caregiver.Jane pus

Jordan sat for a long time after she finished using the bathroom.She wiped herself, flushing the toilet.Westley turned and entered, bending down to pick her up.Slap!A slap landed on his face.Jordan's hand was trembling, and her palm instantly turned red.Westley’s face bore not only the slap mark but also bloodstains, showing the intensity of Jordan’s anger and strength.Jordan had probably used all her strength.Westley merely tilted his jaw and carried her back to the bed.Jordan had no strength left to resist.She knew there was no point in fighting back.She couldn't break free from him."Westley, what do you really want?"Westley shook his head. "I don't know...""You do." Jordan exposed him. "You want me to love you again."Westley held her hand, his posture lowered to the minimum. "Can you do that?"Jordan stared at him for a few seconds before asking, "Westley, do you love me?""Yes," Westley affirmed.Jordan snorted coldly, her tone mocking. "Westley, yo

The moment the kiss fell, Jordan felt the taste of blood.Her lips stung.She wanted to dodge, constantly retreating.The man followed her, securing her between the headboard and his chest.The kiss deepened!When his hot palm landed on her body, Jordan’s eyes widened.Her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.She tried to bite the man, but he easily dodged it.This only resulted in a fiercer assault.Tears began to fall uncontrollably.The kiss, tainted with blood, continued.The man tasted the salty wetness and paused.His eyes were dark, and he pinched her chin, kissing her tears.Yet, the tears flowed endlessly, like a running faucet.Westley moved back slightly, still gazing at her eyes, where desire still churned.But the harshness never left."Jordy, you can hate me, you can keep your distance from me, you can refuse to remarry me, but I can't lose contact with you. So, have a child for me.""You're crazy!" Jordan’s eyes were about to pop out. "Westley, li

But Jordan did not call the police.As she hung up the phone, several tall, strong men entered.Jax also came in, standing in front of him to protect him.The men did not do anything to Westley, but the leader spoke first. "Mr. Howard, you'd better let go. We only take orders from Ms. Hickey. If you insist on holding onto her, then we will have to use force."Westley glanced at the "Collins" insignia on his chest, and cursed Zachary inwardly.Zachary, in the hotel, sneezed several times.He felt innocent and sad.Jordan looked at the time, it was too late.She did not want to waste any more time here."Do it."The men from the Collins family had no choice but to act.They forcibly moved Westley's hand off Jordan.But Westley was no pushover. On his own turf, he couldn't let anyone humiliate him.Soon, the two sides were entangled.Jordan saw her side was losing and was trying to figure out a way.Suddenly, she was lifted off the ground.The scene before her reversed.S

Jordan got directly out of the car and walked away.She hadn't actually turned on the headphones, so she had heard the entire conversation between Westley and the driver.It wasn't really surprising to her.Westley was that kind of person.He could understand care, he could understand romance, he could understand anything that received positive feedback.But when it came to apologizing...He had been at the top since birth, always looking down on the world from the summit.The word "apology" did not exist in his vocabulary.The moment he said "sorry," she was shocked.Seeing his humility, his pleading, and his regret.But she hadn't been swayed.Because that was just a tactic for him, not a genuine realization of his mistake.Westley didn’t know that, during the time it took for him to pay, Jordan had thought about all of this.Right now, his mind was filled with the driver’s words.It seemed that, all along, he hadn’t really apologized sincerely.Anyone could just say a
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1133
In his eyes, there was a flicker of a smile.Jordan was annoyed by his gaze.But she also knew that the more she ignored Westley, the more persistent he became."What I said at the hospital wasn’t what I meant."After a brief silence, Westley spoke again to explain."I admit, my way of handling things was clumsy. I shouldn't have used the filming excuse to get you to leave. But at that time, I really didn’t want you to see me in such a sorry state. I care about my image, and I deserve the way you treat me."Jordan put on her headphones.Westley was rendered speechless.It was really difficult.He had wanted to fix their relationship, to apologize properly and make up for his past mistakes.But he kept messing up.He kept pushing her away.Now, their marriage was really over.And the injury issue didn’t ease the tension—it only made things worse."Young man, your apology lacks sincerity. No wonder the young lady doesn’t forgive you," the driver said, unable to watch any lo

Especially the ones she never used to like, she always wanted to try them.Jane's pregnancy was progressing smoothly, but the reactions were probably even stronger."I'll have Alan send them over. He’s meticulous, so Zachary won’t find out. But I won’t buy too much, just a little to show my intentions.""Love you! Xxx."To avoid Frank leaking any information, Charlotte said goodbye and went to work her charms.Jane scrolled through her phone and waited.Just as she was starting to feel drowsy, there was a knock at the door.The knock was rhythmic.She thought it was Alan, so she quickly opened the door.But she didn’t see his face.Looking down, she saw a little boy."You’re not my mom."The little boy frowned. "But why are you in Room 6001?"Jane looked at him, puzzled."Little one, you’ve gone to the wrong room. This is the ninth floor.""It’s impossible, I pressed the button for the sixth floor, I couldn’t have made a mistake."With a click, the door across the hallw
