Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 948
Jane remembered.She might forget many things, but she would never forget this.She took the cup and had a sip.Her voice, hoarse from crying, said, "It hasn’t changed."Charlotte gently patted her head and said in a soft voice, "When I saw Jasper that day, I thought, I can’t let your scars be reopened, I can’t let you face that bloody, dark past again. I also had Frank and Zachary hide everything from you, to protect you. But now, I think, exposing it might not be a bad thing. Sometimes, facing it head-on is the only way to truly move on."Zachary rushed back to the Collins family in Jeswood, and at first, he had the same thought.After threatening the Collins family, stopping the Winston family from posting the video wasn’t hard.But this situation wasn’t a solution in the long run.Life was long, and you never knew when something might resurface.Facing it head-on might not be a bad thing.He lit a cigarette on the balcony, and his phone rang."Man, I’ve been working so h

Charlotte was the person who understood Jane the most in the world.But Zachary still couldn’t fully relax. However, he didn’t press the issue and simply said, "Hmm, seems like your best friend means more to you. Her words are more comforting than mine."Jane patted his face. "Well, you at least have to say something first.""Didn't I say anything?" Zachary held her hand and kissed it. "I’ve said all my life’s words to you."While waiting for Frank at the airport, Charlotte was suddenly embraced by someone."Charlotte."Charlotte smiled and was about to speak when she noticed the approaching Westley.‘Now he’s worried. What’s he been doing these past couple of years?’ wondered Charlotte."Charlotte, did Jane send you to pick me up?""My wife definitely came to pick me up."Charlotte cocked her brows and saw the broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted man walking toward her.His usual casual smile spread across his lips as he reached out and pulled her into his arms."What are you

Jane immediately called Jordan back."Have you arrived in Jeswood?"Jordan's voice had a hint of resentment. "I’ve been here for hours, waiting for you at the hotel. I’m starving.""And there's this old man constantly staring at me—so annoying."‘Westley is here too?’Jane felt a little guilty. "It's my fault. I'll come pick you up for dinner now. Send me the name of the hotel."After hanging up, Jane received Jordan's message. She stood up and called to Zachary. "Let's go, Mr. Collins."As the car drove to the hotel, she asked him, "Is Westley here for work or something else?"Zachary grunted dismissively. "Neither."‘So he came here just to follow Jordan.’Jane nodded and then poked Zachary’s side cheek with her delicate finger."Mr. Collins, make sure to cherish this last meal with me."Zachary held her hand and responded obediently, "Alright."When they arrived at the hotel, Jordan was already waiting outside.Zachary got out of the car and made space for her."Thank

People who had been in high positions for a long time were impressive, and even when they were jealous, they kept it low-key and restrained."Why are you standing there? Are you planning to serve us dinner?"Frank teased, and Zachary pulled out the chair next to him, tapping his fingers twice."Sit down."Westley realized that he was now isolated.But he still pulled out a chair and sat behind Jordan.Frank stood up, moved Charlotte and her chair aside by two seats, and then sat next to her.Westley found an opportunity and successfully sat beside Jordan.He tilted his head and exchanged an unspoken glance with Frank.Frank smiled lazily. "You owe me a favor."Westley felt that it was a debt that could never be repaid.The Winston family.Luthor followed Zachary back to Jeswood.He first secretly sent a message to the Collins family, waiting for their response.But the Collins family did not give any reply for a long time.Zachary and Jane were still deeply in love, nest

"When Jane was so upset, how could you bring up breaking up?"Zachary's lips twitched slightly, and he gritted his teeth, forcing himself to continue the act."I can't have any stains on my record right now. Jane, if you love me, let me go.""I..."Jane was interrupted again by Jordan."You!" She stomped her foot in anger, no longer caring about anything else, and pointed at Zachary’s nose, saying furiously, "I never imagined you were this kind of person! When you saved me, I thought you were a man of good character. But for the sake of your future, you gave up the person you loved! You're just like Westley, both of you are despicable!"The innocent Westley, who was being unjustly blamed, could only stare in disbelief. The veins on Zachary's forehead were twitching, and he almost couldn't keep up the act."This is between me and Jane."Jane pretended to wipe away nonexistent tears and whispered to Charlotte, "Ahem, I feel so guilty."Charlotte hugged Jane, seemingly offering

Frank gave Westley a nudge, "Aren’t you going to take her back yet? It’s a good opportunity, don’t waste it."Westley's mind slowly started to turn, until everything connected into a clear line."So this is..."Frank interrupted him with a look.They were being watched.Westley understood what Frank had meant by "owing a favor."While Zachary and Jane were acting, Jordan, feeling heartbroken for Jane, would naturally expect Westley to step in and comfort her, offering his help.This way, Jordan would have a change of heart.Even if she still thought he and Zachary were birds of a feather, their current fiery relationship would improve.With that, it would only be a matter of time before she forgave him."Let’s go."Frank noticed that Westley’s steps were noticeably lighter.He wrapped an arm around Zachary’s shoulder and got into another car.Now, it was time for him to start playing the "good friend.""Let’s have a drink."Once they were in the car, Raymond reported the

Jane hurriedly stepped forward.She wasn’t doing it to help Westley.It was because Jordan was acting this way because of her.But she wasn’t really breaking up with Zachary.If there were serious problems between them because of her, she would be the one to blame."Well, Mr. Howard, it’s not convenient for you to come up to my place. Jordan will stay with me tonight. If there’s anything, you can talk about it tomorrow."As she spoke, she secretly gave Westley a look behind Jordan’s back.Westley understood.But he didn’t think Jane would say anything kind to help him repair his relationship with Jordan.After a moment of silence, he turned and left.Because even if he explained things to Jordan, she might not believe him.The reason for this breakup drama needed to come from the people involved.It would be better for him to talk about it later.Once they entered the house, Jane kicked off her shoes, not even bothering to put on slippers, and rushed to draw the curtains i

Jane didn’t dare to.Zachary was a madman. In this situation, if she caused any trouble, everything would fall apart."But..." Jane continued, "When Zachary ignored me during my pursuit, it was actually normal. After all, he had the right to reject me."Jordan furrowed her brows, clutching the pillow and striking it as if it were Westley. "I hate him. He’s just an old fool."Charlotte went to grab some wine and glasses. There was also the marinated food that Zachary had made in the fridge.She brought them over."If you can’t make sense of it, don’t dwell on it. We hardly get a chance like this. Let’s have a drink."Jordan perked up immediately.Jane put on a movie as background noise.Meanwhile, the people watching outside reported to Luthor."Zachary’s men have left. Only Frank and Westley’s men are with Jane.""We couldn’t see much inside, and with the curtains drawn, we couldn’t catch anything. It’s hard to tell if it's real or fake."Luthor was deep in thought, and Gre

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
