Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 98
The next day, when the servants blocked me at the gate of the old mansion, not allowing me to step out, I understood.Last night was indeed just a notification.I knew this was Ryan's idea; it had nothing to do with the servants. I patiently asked, "Where is Ryan?""Master left before dawn.""Did Albert return?""Not yet. Albert is handling the arrangements after Master's passing."I calmly said, "What if I insist on going out now?""Madam, you can't leave."The servant pointed to several black-clad bodyguards standing outside the French windows.I couldn't help but freeze.In these three years, Ryan's hypocrisy hadn't changed at all. Clearly, he told me to stay here for just one night, but now he wouldn't even let me step out of the main gate.For a moment, I even wondered if he was ever the same boy who used to kindly take me to the school clinic, who always tried to respect my dignity and invited me to dinner.Could eight years really change someone so drastically?In t

He was afraid I would call the police again, so he decided not to go to the company and instead held a video conference in the study.I sat in the courtyard all afternoon, feeling as if I was sitting on pins and needles.The next day was the day of my grandfather's funeral, with a somber and desolate atmosphere. It was drizzling lightly, the cold seeping into our hearts.I finally got out of the Frost family mansion and stood by Ryan's side, being led by him like a puppet on a string to receive the guests who came to mourn.His temper had been terrible these past two days, more like he was revealing his true nature rather than changing.I had no choice but to yield to him.I had told him again last night that my grandfather had never asked us not to divorce before he passed away, only that Jessica should not marry into the Frost family. He didn't believe me. He accused me of lying.But I was too tired to argue with him.During the funeral, I stood quietly on the sidelines in a

Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment but quickly understood the reason behind it.Jane furrowed his brows tightly, looking at me with confusion, and whispered, "Did Ryan suddenly change?""No," I replied, watching Jessica being escorted away by the bodyguards, gently pursing my lips. "He's just feeling guilty and wants to make amends."At the moment of Grandpa's passing, as his most beloved grandson, Ryan wasn't by his side. His absence on the day of Grandpa's death had greatly upset him. How could he not feel guilty, regretful, and self-blaming?His ultimate way of expressing it was to obey Grandpa's words and insist that I become the mistress of the Frost family for life. It had nothing to do with me as a person.After the funeral, I returned to the old mansion and helped Albert organize Grandpa's belongings. The servants had already tidied up once, leaving only Grandpa's everyday clothes.Every piece I held in my hands made me feel as if Grandpa hadn'

Tears streamed down my face in an instant as I tremblingly took the velvet box.Opening it, I saw two brilliant jade sculptures. One had floating flower patterns, the other did not.This grade of jadeite was hard to come by. It showed how much Grandpa cared.I carefully closed the lid and took a deep breath. "When did Grandpa find out about my pregnancy?"He knew long ago, but to take care of my emotions, he never asked me.Grandpa had passed away, but I still felt how much he cared.Albert said, "After the last family banquet, Mr. William had someone check your medical records... Don't blame him. He was only afraid of your health problems and worried about you intentionally hiding it from him.""Why would I blame..." I cried harder. "I only blame myself."If I had told Grandpa earlier, he could have been happier for a while longer.He didn’t need to be so careful and afraid to even ask me."Bringing an heir to the Frost family is already a good thing. Even if the old man has

I was momentarily stunned.I almost forgot about this matter.Grandpa had passed away, and Ryan, as the head of the Frost family, naturally had to move in.I freed myself from his grasp and compromised. "Forget it then."Later that evening, the servants prepared dinner, and Albert came to call us downstairs to eat.The vast old mansion seemed to be functioning in an orderly manner as usual.However, everyone's expressions were somewhat solemn.After dinner, I returned to my room to wash up and fell into a deep slumber.For two whole days, I had hardly closed my eyes. I was tired but couldn’t sleep.Now that everything had settled down, I slept particularly soundly, waking naturally only the next morning.Ryan was no longer there.These days, the company had been extremely busy, with rival companies trying to take advantage of this time to strike.When I arrived at work, I received many strange looks along the way.Although Ryan had promised not to have any more contact wit

I stared intently at the screen.One photo showed the side of Jack and me at the concert.The other captured us leaving, his arm seemingly draped around my shoulder from behind.Seeing the second photo, I suddenly understood why I had barely been bumped into after almost falling that day.It turned out Jack's hand had been protecting me from behind...I didn’t know to laugh or cry. "This person's imagination and logical reasoning skills are quite impressive.""Jack is so attentive to you, no wonder people are speculating." Jane remarked, "In my opinion, he's more reliable than Ryan.""Don't talk nonsense." I took a sip of hot tea. "He has someone he likes, and he's liked her for many years.""Who does he like? Why hasn't he brought her out for us to see?""I don't know. I guess when he succeeds in pursuing her, he'll bring her out."I kept silent about Jack liking someone who was already married.After all, it was his privacy, and it was somewhat... unethical. The fewer peop

She exerted tremendous force, her meticulously manicured nails digging deep into my skin, burning with a fiery pain.Hearing her words, Jane's face changed instantly. She wanted to rush forward to pull me away, but Jessica held onto my wrist tightly, refusing to let go.Her eyes were almost crazed, tainted with a coldness. "Didn't you understand? I told you to call Ryan.""Okay." Jane hesitated because of my pregnancy, not daring to forcefully pull me away. She had no choice but to compromise. "I'll call him now, just let go of Charlotte.""No way!"Jessica dragged me out of the shopping center, walked a bit further, and in front of us was the bustling main road with cars passing by.I recalled the sight of Ryan covered in blood last time, feeling a chill down my spine.Jessica... she might really be capable of dragging me into something as extreme as dying together.Jane's face turned pale. She had already dialed the phone. "Don't be impulsive, don't hurt Charlotte.""Put it
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 105
The next moment, I fell hard to the ground in pain...The pain made my head spin.My knees hurt, my arms hurt, my stomach... also hurt.I parted my lips to call out his name, but I saw him anxiously holding Jessica, who had also been hit by the car. He shouted urgently and angrily, "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"Although it was an angry question, his eyes were full of fear and concern.Then, he took out his phone and dialed a number, his fingers trembling, "Gary, come over right away!""Charlotte!"Everything happened in an instant. Jane was probably even more stunned than I was. Once she reacted, she dashed through the traffic and ran over quickly, even losing one of her high heels.Her tears fell heavily. She wanted to help me but was afraid of worsening my injuries. Trembling, she said, "Charlotte... don't be afraid..."I felt something warm slowly flowing out of my body, and with the last of my strength, I grasped Jane's hand, "It hurts... Jane, it hurts so much.

She just wanted to escape from this place and hide somewhere safe.Because of this, the familiar light pear blossom fragrance on Westley's body made her neither push him away nor leave his embrace.In fact, she even held onto him a little tighter.Sensing her reliance on him, Westley held her even closer, as if he wanted to merge her into his very bones.They were almost at the car when the younger man rushed forward to block their way.Westley's cold, piercing gaze fell on the younger man's ankle.He immediately realized that this scumbag had been faking his injury."Buck," he said.Buck appeared instantly and pinned the younger man to the ground.The younger man, however, was unbothered. "There's no way Westley would appear in a place like this. And dressed so casually? You couldn't possibly be the famous head of the Howard family. Trying to impose as Westley? You've reached the end of your rope."When Westley was in a good mood, he might have humored a fool like this.But

It was the 21st century, yet there were still such retards around.This was the first time she had encountered someone blatantly staging an accident.And, if she wasn't mistaken, the person in front of her was the leader of this boy band.Some people's voices were naturally gifted—either deep and resonant or low and attractive.It was difficult for others to imitate.Take Westley, for example.His rich, mellow voice had been honed through years of practicing a London accent.It also had something to do with the experiences he had accumulated over the years.When she was younger, it was hard not to be drawn to Westley.Because of this, she never liked younger men.Especially those who hit every one of her triggers."You're quite bold. You've shown me the diversity of species. Are you trying to rip me off? Dream on." Jordan pointed to her shoulder. "A camera. I recorded everything you just did. If you don't want to lose your fanbase, you'd better get lost right now."The youn

The woman knew very well what would happen to her best friend.She wasn't saying these things to defend her friend, though.She had never liked Jordan.Not only was she jealous of Jordan's protection from Oliver, but now, Jordan had also become the famous Mrs. Howard.Why should Jordan, just because she was a little prettier, get such preferential treatment?She had known Oliver first and had liked him for a long time.But the moment Jordan appeared, she received all of Oliver's affection.How could she accept that?But she couldn't afford to offend the Howard family.After throwing out a few insults, she left.Jasmine was rendered speechless. "Who does she think she is?"Jordan didn't waste her time with people like this.To her, they were just driven by jealousy.They were timid, and it was easy to dismiss them.But Westley, now that was truly giving her a headache.Now, almost everyone knew about her marriage to Westley.It was so annoying.Jasmine thought Jordan ha

The staff couldn't give up.This was an order from the Howard family. If she couldn't convince Mrs. Howard to get into first class, her job would be on the line."Sorry, this cannot be refunded. But if you insist on sitting in economy, you can do so at the price of a first-class ticket. It's up to you."Although it wasn't her money, it still felt wasteful.Someone like Westley, who had no shortage of money, wouldn't understand how difficult it was to earn money."Alright, let's go."Jasmine was much more excited than Jordan."Ms. Hickey, this is my first time in first class! When I first saw your work, I loved it, and now, I can be your assistant. I will definitely do my best!"Jordan was troubled and didn't feel like talking much."I'll sleep for a while. Wake me up when we arrive.""Okay."Jasmine had a feeling that the upgrade was done by Westley.She had seen his watch—a limited edition, priceless. It could buy a luxury apartment.He seemed like an employee, but in rea

She became more and more agitated.Her face and neck turned red with anger.Tears began to fall uncontrollably as her emotional distress took over.She wiped her face forcefully and then motioned for him to leave.Westley handed her a piece of tissue, but Jordan didn't take it."Leave."Westley's lips pressed together slightly, and his deep voice carried a strong tone of apology."I acknowledge all the mistakes I've made, all the things I've said. I know that the harm I've caused you can't be fixed in a day, but Jordy, you can hit me, curse me, order me to work like a servant, but asking me to give up on you, that’s something I can't do."Jordan opened the door. Though she didn't say anything, her intention for him to leave was clear.Westley stood in front of her. "The interviewees weren't as good as me. I won't accept you rejecting me because of our personal relationship. I'm starting work now."Jordan couldn't help but laugh angrily. "Westley, do you look like an assistant

"You can't reject me just without even giving me a chance to interview. And I don't accept your reason for rejection, you don’t even know what I’m good at."What professionalism did he have?Westley couldn't even tell the model of a camera.He had received elite education since childhood, and even in his personal life, he never engaged with these entertainment fields.Jordan didn't want to waste time.Even if, hypothetically, she did interview him, what would come of it? Was she really going to keep him as an assistant just because he did a little preparation?"You can leave. It's my studio, and I have the right to decide who I interview and who I don't."Westley just sat down at the door.When the next interviewee arrived, he would tell them that the studio owner didn’t care about what they were good at.He warned them not to waste their time.Jordan pushed him away and led the interviewee inside.Westley stood up and followed her."I've already turned you down, sir.

After a moment of silence.Oliver signed the resignation letter that she handed over."If you're unhappy in the future, you can still come back.""Jordy, don't feel pressured."Jordan nodded, said nothing, and turned to leave.Since she had decided to open a studio, she immediately started making arrangements.In the end, she chose Nelana as the location.After this trip, she suddenly felt that avoiding Westley all the time was rather pointless.She hadn't done anything wrong, so why was it always her who had to wander around?Even coming back to see her grandfather had to be done cautiously.In the future, she would stay in Nelana, so she could visit her grandfather’s grave more often.She tidied up the old house that her grandfather had left her.The photography studio was opened in a small alley.Over the years, she had gained some fame, so there was no need to set up shop in a busy district to attract business.The studio's name was simple “J”.After tidying up alone

She was still shocked by the fact that he had slept with Diana, and then came another gossip."Whose child is it?""Felix's."Jane couldn't help but clap her hands. "What a drama."Roy said, "Mr. Frost isn't someone who can be easily set up. He might have known exactly what happened that night with that woman. Doing this was probably to put someone's mind at ease."This someone was surely Frank.That was Jane’s guess.The next second, Roy answered, "That way, the person won't keep holding onto the past, and Mrs. Smith can live in peace."He was still thinking of Charlotte.Jane finished the last of her chicken and drank the coke.She leaned back in her chair, habitually patting her little belly.Zachary quickly stopped her with a swift move."It's not because you ate too much and your stomach temporarily bloated, it's the baby."Jane occasionally forgot she was pregnant, mainly because the early morning sickness was replaced by Zachary.With the help of Tanner's medicine,

Zachary helped her into the car and asked what she wanted to eat.Jane blinked at him wildly.He understood.Nothing was better than gossiping and eating.Zachary had someone ask around."They'll definitely get you the latest and most authentic gossip. Now, let's fill your stomach with real food first."Jane leaned closer to him, resting her chin on his shoulder, and kissed his firm jaw.Zachary sighed. "No junk food."Jane replied, "But I really want to eat fried chicken."Zachary couldn't tolerate the greasy smell.Due to his stomach issues, he couldn't eat much, so he never paid attention to it.His sense of smell was more sensitive than those who were constantly around such strange smells.Moreover, junk food was bad for both her and the baby.There was no need for it."Anything you say today won't work."Jane knew how Zachary was going to react. "You don't have to be with me. I'll go eat it myself. I must eat it, otherwise, I'll be in a bad mood, and the baby will f
