Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 896
"Even if I have feelings for him, I still wouldn’t marry him.""His dad could easily destroy me if he wanted to."Charlotte had always known that Jane still had feelings for Zachary.The reason she had given up initially was because of Nina and Zachary’s indecision.Later, Zachary’s grandmother’s words had truly frightened her.She wanted to break up, and the main reason was to see if she could love Zachary enough to go against the whole world.But after visiting the Collins family, all that was left in her was fear.Someone who had always had to rely on herself since she was young was naturally someone who valued her own life."I only found out about Zachary’s trip to Nelana the night after the birthday party. But you had booked your trip to Nelana a long time ago. I’m not sure if it was because Zachary got the news and went, or if his trip to Nelana was already part of his work arrangement. I didn’t tell you earlier because I didn’t think it would be so easy to run into him i

"Alright, those two are already having a hard time. Stop watching the show."In a hotel room in Nelana.Jane stepped onto the sofa, trying to snatch her phone back from Zachary’s hand."I’m on the phone with my best friend. It has nothing to do with you! What right do you have to hang up my video call!"Zachary pulled her into his arms, and with a flick of his wrist, her phone landed steadily on the sofa.Jane realized that she was too close to him and could feel the heat from his body.She quickly struggled to break free from his embrace.Zachary tightened his arms around her. "Shall we talk?""I have nothing to talk to you about.""Aren’t you supposed to thank me?"Jane gritted her teeth. "My thanks is dinner. If you want something else, forget it!""Dinner works too."Zachary seemed to compromise, nodding slightly.Jane was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then her thigh was grabbed, and she was lifted into the air."Zachary!"When she was set down on the bed, s

Jane didn’t answer, but asked, "Did you come to Nelana for work, or...?""For you."The answer to all her questions pointed in one direction.Jane stared at Zachary for a long time before switching to another question."Are you serious about what you said?"Zachary looked at her with serious eyes. "Every word I said to you, I meant it."Then there was nothing more to say.Jane kissed him on the chin and then turned over to sleep.Zachary embraced her from behind, his deep, attractive voice whispering in her ear."What does kissing me mean?""It’s exactly what you think." Jane nudged him with her elbow. "I’m really tired, stop bothering me."That night, the rarely active Zachary updated his social media.There was only one picture.A large hand holding a small one, and on her finger, was a diamond ring.Frank commented, "You two are back together?"Zachary replied, "Yep."Charlie, who hadn’t seen Frank’s comment, learned that the Greyson family was about to marry into th

"Do you have any way to resolve the current dilemma?"Rebecca had none.Neither did anyone else in the Collins family.With this move, Zachary had them cornered.Madam Collins, holding her bracelet, said, "When there’s no way out, sometimes one should just wait. Maybe one day, a solution will come."When Jane woke up, Zachary was not beside her.She grabbed her phone, and a call came in.She initially thought it was Zachary, but it was actually Charlotte."Hey, babe.""Sounds like you're in a good mood."Jane smiled. "I guess."Charlotte mentioned Zachary’s recent social media post, and Jane minimized the call page to take a look.She muttered to Charlotte, "Typical."Charlotte chuckled. "He never posted anything on social media."Jane refreshed the page a few times. "True, this is the only one."Charlotte said, "I’m getting on a plane, I’ve sent you the itinerary. Please, Miss Greenwood, spare some time from your love life to pick me up."Jane was a little confused. "W

She had set an emergency contact and pressed the power button five times in quick succession.But Charlotte was on the plane and couldn’t receive her call.The airport police arrived quickly, but they were blocked outside the cafe by the black-suited bodyguards.Jane couldn’t help but mutter under her breath. “Looks like they have a powerful background.”Taking advantage of the moment, she called Zachary.As soon as the call connected, the bodyguards dispersed.Jane saw a familiar face walking toward her."Jane, please hand Jordan over.""Jane?"On the other end of the line, she heard Zachary calling her name. Jane responded, "I thought it was... It’s Mr. Howard. It’s fine now. Don’t worry."Zachary let out a sigh of relief. "I’ll be right there.""No need, Mr. Howard won’t do anything to me. Aren’t you busy? Don’t cause trouble."Zachary knew exactly what kind of person Westley was.Especially since he couldn’t find his wife right now, he was a man who would cut ties with

"You were supposed to tell me some things I wanted to know, you can’t ask for a reward, understand?""I understand."Zachary seemed to understand, and after saying that, he picked up his coffee and took a sip, showing no intention of speaking further.Jane waited for a while, then realized something was off.She glared at him. "So, no reward means you won’t speak, right?"Zachary curved his lips into a faint smile. "How am I supposed to tell you something that I’m not sure of?"‘Damn it! He’s being pretentious again.’Jane gritted her teeth. "With that kind of mind, you should be serving the people, not using it on me."Zachary murmured, "Are you the people?""Of course, I am.""Are you satisfied with my service? Give me a score of ten if you’re satisfied. I’ll keep working harder."Jane didn’t want to continue talking to him. "This is boring."She stood up to leave, but Zachary grabbed her wrist."Aren’t you curious anymore?""No, I’m not," Jane said through gnashed teet

Zachary's eyes immediately darkened."What's wrong?" Jane asked when she saw the change in his expression.Zachary put away his phone and shook his head. "Let’s get you home first."At that moment, Charlotte's call came through.Jane answered it.As soon as they met, Charlotte asked anxiously, "What happened? Why did you make an emergency call?"Jane took her hand and explained, "Don’t worry. It was a misunderstanding. Zachary has already sorted it out."When they reached the car, Zachary didn’t get in. He instructed Ross to make sure the two of them were safely sent off.Jane let Charlotte get in first, then looked at Zachary without saying anything.Zachary reached out, scratching the space between his eyebrows with his index finger. Finally, he decided to tell her the truth."Luthor Winston has arrived."The name "Luthor Winston" sounded familiar to Jane, but she couldn’t place it right away.However, she had heard of the surname "Winston.""The Winston family?"Zachar

"I still stand by my previous statement. No matter what decision you make, I’ll support you. If you need help or someone to rely on, I’m here for you."Jane took a while to process this. "So, what you're saying is that the Winston family actually wants the Collins family to be the figurehead, and Zachary used that point to create a protective circle around me?"Charlotte nodded.Jane scratched her head. "So, the Winston family is making a move because they’ve seen Zachary’s abilities and are starting to plan and prepare?"Charlotte nodded again.Jane sighed. "What can I do about it?""Just take care of yourself.""What good will that do him?"Charlotte smiled. "Taking of yourself is the most important thing. You have to be vigilant."Jane pouted. "I’m not that foolish."She sighed again. "This is the path I chose and there’s no turning back."Charlotte tilted her head. "This sounds like you want to be with him for the rest of your life.""What else can I do? I can’t shake h

He placed some meat on her plate and asked, "Don't you like being close to me? Or do you still think our relationship isn't suitable for closeness right now?"Jordan couldn't really explain.Westley answered for her, "Do you think the development between us is different from others? So it's awkward?"Jordan thought for a moment, and it seemed like that was the case.Westley continued, "So you still want to go through a process before we get to the point where we can kiss in a romantic relationship?"Jordan fell silent.Westley said, "If you have something to say, just say it. There's nothing we should be embarrassed about between us."Jordan bit her cutlery, and after a few seconds, she said, "Before we remarry, we can maintain a working relationship. We can eat together, do some things together, but we can't have any intimate behavior. Can you accept that?"Westley obviously couldn't accept it.He didn't really understand why she wanted it that way.But he still went along w

"Otherwise, would you listen to something you don't want to hear?"Jordan didn't want to argue with him. "I'll say this one last time... Mm!"Her lips were sealed, and when Jordan tried to push him away, she kept punching his shoulder.She tilted her head to dodge, but he firmly held her by the back of her head.She opened her mouth to bite him, but he grabbed her face, deepening the kiss.In the quiet office, with only the two of them, the sound of water droplets, which made hearts race and faces flush, could be heard.Jordan, unable to take it anymore, kicked him.But his long legs held her down.She was completely at his mercy, unable to move at all."Um..."It wasn't until the sound of a knock on the door broke the intimate atmosphere."I'm here for the interview... Is this a bad time?"As soon as Westley released her, Jordan immediately pushed him away, wiping her lips forcefully.She stomped on him hard and tried to calm her emotions as she looked toward the door."

Jordan went to sit on the sofa and casually raised her hand toward him."Go on."Westley looked at her, noticing how she resembled a boss, a look that had some of his own influence in it.He smiled.Jordan shot him a glare. "Be serious.""Alright."Westley sat up straight, looking serious.He began to explain his previous plans to her.Except for parts of the plan that needed to be kept confidential, he didn't hide anything else."The reason I had you stab me was indeed to let you vent your anger, to make up for the harm I've caused you. It was just a coincidence that the higher-ups issued an order at the same time, so I decided to go along with it. Now, the plan has been completed. I can indeed come back to life, but right now, there's nothing I need to do. The Howard family has Leanne, and I've already resigned. I'm just a jobless wanderer now, and no one cares. Whether I'm alive or not doesn't really matter."Jordan felt that those last two sentences were clearly meant to

But when she reached the bedroom door, ready to go out and check, she thought again, how could he, such a grown man, possibly be putting himself through hardship?With so many people under him, he could just call anyone to bring him clothes.And he could book a comfortable presidential suite for himself.There was no need for her to be concerned about it.Besides, it was her who had locked him out in the first place.Going out now would only make it seem like she cared about him too much.Right.She shouldn't go out.Jordan returned to her bed.But no matter what, she couldn't fall asleep.In the living room, Westley was already lying on the sofa.The heating was turned up high, so he wasn't worried about the cold.He was holding his phone, making some kind of plan.In the end, Jordan didn't even know how she fell asleep.When she woke up groggily, the first thing she did was get up and check on Westley.But she found that he wasn't there anymore.She let out a sigh of

She now saw herself only as a sister figure to him. Even though they were a bit close, there was still a sense of distance and wariness.It was impossible for her to fully open up to him.But at that moment, suddenly talking about their relationship wasn't really appropriate.Besides, with how things had developed between her and Westley, if he intervened, it would just force them apart.In the end, it would be her who got hurt.‘Forget it.’Nathan decided to just watch how things would unfold.If Westley still didn't realize his mistakes and hurt Jordan again, then no matter what, he couldn't let them be together."Has Jasmine not come back?""Huh?" The topic changed too quickly, and Jordan was a little slow to react. "No.""Nathan, did you take anything from this room?"Nathan's gaze darkened slightly. "No."Noticing that he was in a bad mood, Jordan didn't ask about his situation with Jasmine."Jasmine probably has something she wants to do."Nathan could tell from her

"I've already picked out a few candidates, but I just haven't had the chance to arrange meetings for you yet. Maybe you've only ever been exposed to him since childhood. Try dating someone else, and you might realize he isn't the only one for you." Jordan shook her head. "Nathan, that's not it..." "I'm certain I like him—no matter how outstanding others are, I won't be interested." Nathan frowned. "You've never tried being with anyone else. How can you be so sure?" Of course, Jordan was sure. Ever since her youthful heart first fluttered, she had been certain, apart from Westley, she would never love anyone else. And that was precisely why his indifference had wounded her so deeply. She had filed for divorce and despised his later attempts at remorse. Because she had never wavered in her feelings—yet he only began to love her after she decided to let go. If he had realized it even a little sooner, they wouldn't have suffered through such a painful, drawn-out

"I’m not doing anything," Westley answered her question, squeezing her hand slightly. "Just need your help with something."Jordan was already in her 20s.How could she not understand the things between men and women?His voice was dangerously hoarse now, and what kind of help could he possibly need from her?"You do it yourself, I can't help.""Well, I’ll do all the hard work."He was the one doing all the hard work indeed.But he was holding her hand, making her hand... move with his!Jordan tried to pull her hand back. "Westley, you’re making me mad."Westley leaned on her shoulder and laughed lowly. "Alright, after you help me, feel free to get angry. Hit me however you want. But right now, Jordy, I can't stop."The temperature in the kitchen gradually rose.With the heating, it made the air dry and uncomfortable.She had just taken a shower to cool down, but now, a thin layer of sweat had formed.She felt hot.Jordan had nowhere to hide and couldn't break free.In t

The arm around her waist suddenly tightened.The breath sprayed near her ear, hot and unsettling.The man's hoarse voice came. "Don't want to sleep? Then how about we do something else?"Jordan gripped the blanket tightly, weakly lying, "I want to go to the bathroom. I haven't washed up yet either."Westley released her.Jordan quickly escaped. She didn't know what she might do if she stayed another second.Westley lowered his head, glancing at her, then sighed deeply.This was a pyrrhic victory.Jordan stayed in the bathroom for a long time.She even took a shower.But after finishing, she suddenly remembered that her bath towel had been taken by Westley.Standing in the bathroom, she felt like she had no way out.And in her haste to come in, she hadn't grabbed a change of clothes.She had impulsively picked up the clothes that Westley had swapped out of and her clothes and tossed them into the laundry basket.Her clothes were now all wet.She could only silently fume.

‘I’ve already taken my pants off and you’re just going to leave it at that?’She thought this must have been intentional on Westley's part.She raised her leg and kicked him, then turned around, pulling the blanket away, her back clearly showing a trace of resentment.Westley didn't mind, pulling both her and the blanket into his arms.He chuckled softly in her ear."Your reaction right now makes me think you're dissatisfied."The deliberate pause was even more teasing.Jordan immediately elbowed him.But because she was tangled in the blanket, she couldn't put much strength into it.The muffled laugh of the man in her ear clearly mocked her, making her even angrier.Her emotions flared up too quickly, and tears started falling.Westley felt the wetness on his arm, it was hot.He quickly sat up.He knew about her tendency to lose control of her tears, but seeing her cry still made his heart ache.He gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eye with his thumb and whis
