Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 844
Her fingers had turned red, and they were slightly swollen, but the ring still couldn't be removed. Zachary once again held her hand, gently rubbing her middle finger to ease the pain. Jane looked coldly at him. There was no emotional reaction to his careful and considerate gestures. This was not what she wanted. No matter how well he acted, it couldn't hide the domineering arrogance in him. He said he would let her be free, but in reality, he had already tied her down without her realizing it. He had confined her in a cage. She wanted to vent her anger. But then she felt it wasn't necessary anymore. He would just respond with a few words that would make her at a loss for words anyway. She couldn't even be bothered to shake off his hand. The rest of the journey was in silence. This made Roy, in the driver's seat, feel a sense of unease. This suffocating silence was worse than an argument. Perhaps if they argued it would be better. The wor

Jane felt like her wrist was about to be crushed, and tried to pull it out. "Let go, it hurts." But Zachary pulled her closer, holding her tightly in his arms. "Don't think these words of yours will work. They can't control me." His voice was cold and hard, clearly filled with anger. But Jane didn't care. She kept provoking him. "If you were really that capable, you wouldn't have been brought here today. We would already be at the Civil Affair Bureau getting the paperwork done. Zachary, you know it yourself. You're not powerful enough to beat the Collins family." Zachary's voice grew even colder. "I'm doing this for you." "I don't want you to." Jane struggled to get out of his embrace, but when that failed, she stomped on his foot. But Zachary didn't even flinch. Jane's voice turned cold as well. "Stop always saying you're doing things for me. Your family does the same for you, so why don't you accept it? Why do you have to go against them? Sometimes, I ju

Zachary rebutted, "How can I not care? If it weren't for your relationship with Michael's grandmother, I wouldn't have kept her around waiting to match the statements with Michael. Even legally, without matching statements, we can't file a case or convict anyone." Nina was not surprised. She knew Zachary's style very well. But it didn't matter anymore. At that point, there was nothing she could do, but wait for the right moment to escape the country. As long as Zachary didn't send her to prison or kill her, there was always a chance. "Miss Greenwood, even if you don't like Zachary and want to break up with him, please don't use me as a shield. We're both women, can't we be a bit more friendly?" Jane snorted coldly. "When you were setting me up, did you ever think about being 'friendly' to me as a woman?" She replied, "Michael already told me, your little act is completely unnecessary now." Zachary chimed in, "If you don't want to see her, fine. Let Michael come

Jane didn't let out a breath of relief until she passed through the gates of the house. She wiped the cold sweat that had gathered on the tip of her nose. Quickly, she walked toward the main road. She had heard about the power and influence of Zachary's family, and had imagined it in her mind, but seeing it in person was far more shocking than she had anticipated. At that point, she even felt that breaking up with him was the right decision. She was glad she had done it quickly. If she had stayed in a relationship with Zachary any longer, the Collins family would definitely have come for her. Beep— The honking sound startled Jane. Seeing the driver, Alan, her erratic heartbeat gradually settled. "Are you here for business?" "No, I'm here to pick you up." Jane sat in the passenger seat, fastening her seatbelt and asking, "Did Mr. Smith send you?" Alan nodded. "Miss Greenwood, it's not safe to stay at your place right now. Please pack your things. I

The windows had also been locked, and there were patrols every day.The front door and the backyard offered no opportunity to escape.He lay on the bed, one hand resting under his head.He stared blankly at the ceiling.Nina had originally planned to take the opportunity to escape, but she failed. She wasn't restricted like Zachary, however.But with her abilities, escaping from the layers of encirclement was no easy task.Moreover, the guards at the gate of the compound had been instructed by the Collins family.The back wall of the yard no longer offered any chance to climb out.It seemed that this time, the Collins family was taking drastic measures.They would not allow Zachary and Jane to contact each other again.Recalling the words Zachary had said earlier.She couldn't help but sneer. ‘She’s the only person you will marry?’They had grown up together, but neither of them had ever loved each other to such an extent.How long had they known each other, really?What

"Grandma is fine. Mrs. Waxon next door is helping me take care of her.""I had an tryout, so I came over. I didn't expect to run into you, Jane."Looking at Michael's happy expression, Jane couldn't bring herself to smile."Michael, about what Charlotte told you...""You don't need to say anything."Michael interrupted her. "From now on, you're just my sister. If you need anything, just call me. I may not have power, but I will do everything I can to protect you."Jane felt a mix of emotions. "There's no need to go that far.""Jane, why did you suddenly come to Leacoston? Are you on a business trip?"Michael changed the subject, but Jane felt she couldn't avoid the conversation."Michael, I think we should maintain some distance. From the moment you started liking me, if I can't return those feelings, then we can't even be friends. When I went to Larecton with you before, it was because I wanted to know the truth about that night in Heliafield. I also needed to relax. There's

But at the last two steps, Sean let go of him.He stretched his wrist, which had been twisted, and turned to go upstairs.Sean blocked the stairs with a smile. "Mr. Collins, your blind date is already here. If I drag you downstairs, you'll be embarrassed."Zachary stayed silent for a few seconds, then turned and walked down the last two steps, heading into the living room.His father wasn't there. His grandparents were seated on a two-person sofa, and Rebecca sat on the central long sofa, with three people beside her. He glanced past them without looking closely.Not wanting to sit on the single sofa, he leaned against the stairs and stood.Rebecca smiled apologetically, stood up, and dragged Zachary to sit beside a young woman."This is Lexi Sanchez, the granddaughter of your grandfather's comrade-in-arms. You two used to set off fireworks together when you were kids."Zachary didn't even look at her, replying coldly, "When we were kids, all the children in the compound set of

Zachary didn't respond.He reached for another cigarette, preparing to light it.Lexi stretched her hand out, but he shifted his body to avoid her."You really have no taste. No wonder you were dumped."Zachary's brows lowered slightly, and he sat down on the sofa, exhaling a puff of white smoke.Lexi was very angry.But when she turned to see him sitting on the sofa, his legs casually crossed, and an air of inexplicable decadence around him, her anger faded a little.With his handsome face and indifferent demeanor, he was enough to attract attention.The thing about him was that, once someone developed feelings for him, even flaws they couldn't tolerate before would become bearable.Lexi didn't go over to snatch the cigarette from his hand.But despite liking Zachary, she still didn’t like the smell of cigarettes.Standing at the foot of the bed, she looked at him and said, "Marry me."Zachary only sneered.Lexi, unbothered, continued, "You don't want to keep being forced

The baby really did kick out."Truly a mischievous little brat."Jane laughed, her soft hand resting on his large palm, a mischievous glint in her eyes."As long as there’s someone that he’ll listen to, I, as his mother, won’t have to worry anymore."Zachary wanted a daughter like Jane.But as long as it was her child, even if it was a son, he would be fine with it.However, the son she painstakingly gave birth to was for someone else."Sparrow really looks like Frank. Aren't you worried that he might bully your son?"Jane wasn’t worried, "If my son is as clever as you, he wouldn’t necessarily be the one getting bullied."These things were still too early to discuss.Zachary stopped the conversation. "Come and sleep with me, honey."As soon as he finished speaking, the door was knocked on loudly.Zachary was about to curse.Jane calmly smoothed out his messy hair that had been pushed up from sleeping."Get some sleep. I'll go answer it. This time, I’ll make sure to handle

"Miss Howard, regarding this matter, Mr. Howard said that he will not get involved. You can look into this matter, but he doesn't recommend you getting involved."Leanne expressed concern, "But I'm afraid that Zachary might be threatened this time, and if he’s angry, he won’t handle things properly. You saw my cousin's condition. What if later, he and Jordy are still at odds? What should we do then? Carter didn’t achieve his goal this time, so who knows how he will retaliate next time."The possibility of Carter seeking revenge was slim.Since he managed to get Zachary to agree, he would certainly continue to follow Zachary and make sure this matter was handled.In the future, if something happened to Westley, Carter would still be the one to deal with it."You don’t need to worry about this. Zachary will handle it."Leanne couldn’t match Zachary’s intellect,Which was why she wanted to make some preparations beforehand."Alright, I’ll keep an eye on things."Buck went to arra

Nathan said, "It can't be fake, it has to be real.""Fine, fine, fine," Max, tired of dealing with this pampered younger sister obsession, replied. "I'll make an announcement about the delay."Nathan thought of something, "Notify that assistant."Max purposely asked, "Which assistant?"Nathan hung up the phone directly.Max clicked his tongue, realizing that he couldn’t joke around.It was really boring.He found Jasmine's number and called, introducing himself and mentioning the delay.Jasmine was more concerned about Jordan. She had been unable to contact her, but after messaging Charlotte, she got a reply saying not to worry, Jordan was fine.But now the shooting had to be postponed because Jordan wasn’t feeling well.She didn’t know who to believe."Is Jordan okay?""She's fine. Don’t worry."Jasmine sensed something was off. "Mr. Jenson your voice sounds different."Max quickly lied, "I'm his assistant, but I haven’t been in touch with you, so I’m giving you his name

When Zachary entered the password for the second time, the door was opened.Charlotte, with sharp eyes, came out and quickly pulled Frank away.When Frank tried to speak, she covered his mouth.As soon as the elevator doors closed, Frank pressed her against the wall, trapping her in the corner, pulling her into his arms."Since when are you an authoritarian, not letting me speak?"Charlotte pushed him. "There are cameras."Frank didn’t even look back, "I’m blocking the view, they can’t see.""Did you miss me?"Charlotte smiled helplessly, "You’ve only been gone for two days.""Two days and you didn’t miss me?" Frank’s eyelids drooped. "27 hours of flight, 1620 minutes, 97200 seconds...""I’ve missed you." Charlotte interrupted him. "I’ve missed you."A wicked smile instantly spread across Frank’s eyes. He leaned closer to her and asked, "Which part of me did you miss?"Zachary went straight to the bathroom as soon as he entered the house. After cleaning himself up, he came

"Yes.""Quickly, tell me."Leanne's curiosity was stirred, and Buck said."Mr. Collins made this foster sister marry the second son of the Hilton family."Leanne was shocked."The second son of the Hilton family, from the Yelar?""Which other Hilton family could make the Collins family silent?"Leanne gave a thumbs-up. "Impressive.""Zachary's mind and tactics are indeed remarkable."Buck continued, "Coincidentally, Mr. Collins’ sister is Mandy’s direct superior."Leanne nodded, "No wonder Carter insisted on Zachary backing down. But I still have a question.""What is it?" asked Buck."Why would the second son of the Hilton family marry Zachary’s sister? They don’t need to form an alliance with the Collins family to gain any benefits, do they?" said Leanne.Buck was stunned.The marriage between the Hilton family and the Collins family was facilitated by Lucifer.But Lucifer's name was a taboo for the Leanne."You can’t even tell me?" Leanne was extremely curious. She w

"I don’t have any ideas."Nathan took Jordan onto the plane and gave her a cup of milk.They flew straight back to Impelia, where they went to the hospital for a full body check-up.Although there were no external injuries, he was still not at ease.Jordan had kept refusing, but she couldn't argue with Nathan and went for the check-up.While waiting for her examination, Nathan received a call from Calvin."What happened?""Do you know the consequences of leaving the team without permission?"Nathan of course knew, but he was too worried and was caught up in a mission, so he took the risk."Don’t worry, Grandpa, I know what I’m doing."Calvin's tone was stern. "Nathan, everything you have today was earned with blood. If you aren’t careful and lose it, how will you protect those two cousins?"Nathan responded, "I’ll reflect on my actions. I won’t let the Jackson family face any issues, and I won’t lose everything I have."Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to stop Westley from en

"How could you think of me like this?" Jane glared at him. "You sound as if I’ve been terrible to you. I think you’re amazing, capable of handling anything, which is why I rely on you and trust you so much."Zachary’s frown relaxed. "I’ve put a lot of effort in this time, how are you going to reward me?"Charlotte couldn’t take it anymore and hung up the video call."Stop treating me like I’m invisible, both of you."Jane didn’t call back. She knew that help from afar couldn’t solve the immediate problem.She leaned on Charlotte’s shoulder and sighed.Charlotte patted her head. "Don’t keep sighing. We’ve already found a solution to the problem.""I feel so sorry for Jordan.""No one’s life is without difficulties."Jane knew that, but she still didn’t want Jordan to go through such hardship.Charlotte opened her phone to show her something.Jane was surprised. "A pink dolphin?"Charlotte nodded. "Yes, Jordan took it.""Why didn’t she send it to me?""This was sent to me b

"Jane..."Jane looked at her, heart aching. "Don’t worry. I’ll have Zachary take you back. I’ve bought your favorite food.""But Westley...""It has nothing to do with you."How could it not? Jordan wiped her tears. "If he really dies, without any proof, I won’t be able to explain it."This was indeed a problem.If Westley really died, no one would be able to torment Jordan anymore.But Westley’s death couldn’t be tied to Jordan."Don’t worry. Zachary will look into this clearly. It won’t be tied to you. Come back first."Jordan nodded. "Okay.""Jordy!"Leanne saw Jordan nodding and quickly said, "my cousin did hurt you, but it wasn’t a crime that he deserves to die for. Before you two got married, everything he did for you wasn’t fake. My parents and I are sincere with you too. Even if you hate my cousin, you can’t just stand by and watch him die, right? Please, I beg you. Just say something, save him, and I promise I’ll do everything I can to make sure he never bothers you

Carter moved at a steady pace. "Of course, you could also find someone else to perform the surgery on Westley. After all, you all have power and influence, finding a skilled doctor shouldn’t be difficult. You can even find someone from another country. I’m not the only one who can do this surgery."Leanne grew anxious. "Carter, what do you mean? People's lives are at stake. Can’t you save my cousin first? As long as my cousin is fine, I’ll agree to whatever conditions you put forward."Zachary bypassed Carter and walked away.Frank spoke for Zachary. "Since the head of the Howard family has promised you, there’s no need for me to stay with Mr. Collins."Carter followed, walking out without saying a word, but it felt like he had said something.Leanne chased after them and blocked their way."What do you mean? Are you just going to watch my cousin die?"Zachary understood that Carter’s reluctance was related to the matter of Mandy’s reassignment.But that was something he couldn
