Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 998
Jane dodged a bullet, and another explosion rang in her ears.She was pulled into a familiar, warm embrace.But the smell of gunpowder and blood immediately filled her nose."Zachary!"Zachary patted her head, soothing her. "It's okay."His voice was hoarse, how could it be okay?Jane dropped what she was holding and quickly wrapped her arms around him.In front of them, Roy had already subdued Luthor, Nina, and the others.However, in the chaos, they hadn't expected Luthor to still be able to shoot with his left hand.Zachary had blocked the shot with his body.Frank arrived shortly after, and upon seeing the situation, he rushed to call for a doctor and pushed a mobile stretcher over.He contacted Westley. "Contact the Greyson Infirmary, preferably Carter Greyson."Westley had close ties with the Greyson family.When he learned that Zachary had been shot, he personally went to ask Carter to treat Zachary.He also arranged a private jet to take them to the hospital.At

"Apply some medicine."Charlotte looked at Jane's condition and paused before saying, "Call a nurse over."Frank sent someone to do that.Soon, a nurse from Cheria arrived.She didn't say much, almost nothing at all.She carefully treated Jane's wounds.Finally, she said, "She can't keep wearing wet clothes. Her skin feels a bit warm to me. She might be burning up with a fever."Frank nodded slightly.He knew that Charlotte had heard her."She can go change in the room next door.""You should change too."Charlotte had brought some clothes with her when she came on a business trip to Nelana. When she found out Jane had been kidnapped, she rushed over immediately.She had brought her suitcase along as well.Jane and Charlotte had similar builds, so wearing her clothes wouldn't be a problem.But given the situation, Jane might not want to change."You can't collapse now. I know you'll want to take care of Zachary, right?"Jane glanced at Charlotte, her voice still carryin

"You have a lot of time now since you don’t need to attend meetings, Mr. Collins."Eric had never considered that Zachary would grow this strong.He had never imagined that Zachary could push him into early retirement.Since didn’t have to go to work, he now had time to deal with Zachary and Jane's situation."Frank, you're close to Zachary, but this is a family matter. It's not convenient for you to get involved.""I'm not involved." Frank put his hands in his pockets and spoke in his usual laid-back tone. "If Mrs. Collins hit Jane, my wife will be upset. When my wife is upset, I'm the one who failed to care for her. So, how can this be just a matter for the Collins family?"Frank was always good at twisting words, and Eric didn't want to argue further.He tugged at Rebecca, signaling her to calm down.At that moment, with both Frank and Charlotte present, they couldn't do anything to Jane.Rebecca was not happy, glaring at Jane. "Are you satisfied now? Do you want him to be

"What, what does that mean?""It’s possible that he might end up in a coma. Be prepared.""How could that be…"Eric quickly supported Rebecca. He was relatively calm. "Is there no way?"Carter shook his head and walked towards Westley. "If he doesn't wake up within a month, we’ll have to call my sister-in-law for acupuncture."Westley’s gaze flickered. He turned to Frank and said, "I’ll have him stay here first."Frank nodded, but didn’t have time to tell Charlotte.Then they heard her scream, "Jane—"Jane had fainted.There was a burst of chaos.While Carter was treating Jane, Frank pulled Charlotte aside and whispered something to her.Charlotte couldn’t focus her mind. "What does this mean? Is Zachary pretending to be unconscious?""Not sure."Frank thought back to Zachary’s condition at the time and felt that the chance of him waking up during the surgery was low.It was most likely that after the surgery, he had been worried about Jane and woke up for a short time, s

Jane rarely saw Charlotte angry.It could be said that she had never seen her angry.Charlotte had always been a calm and rational person."Charlotte…"Charlotte didn’t want to talk about Rebecca’s involvement.Jane and Zachary had faced many difficulties to get this far.After all the struggles, they had both persisted, and she didn’t want to add more obstacles between them."Jane, I’ll say it again, you didn’t do anything wrong. The fault belongs to the people with bad intentions. Even if Zachary had changed his fiancee, this would still have happened. Luthor and Nina are bad seeds, and they wouldn’t give up any time soon."After speaking to Jane, she turned her gaze to Rebecca."Mrs. Collins, I respect you as an elder, but don’t use your status to pressure people. You know better than anyone what’s really going on. If you continue to hurt Jane, I don’t care whether it’s a family matter of the Collins family or not."Rebecca wanted to say something but was stopped by Eric.

"But if, in the future, Zachary ends up wandering the world with Jane, don’t blame me for helping them erase all traces."Eric was rendered speechless. He knew that Frank didn’t intervene because they hadn’t gone too far.Frank had only watched from a distance before.Now, he wasn’t going to stand back and do nothing.After finishing work, Jordan flew straight to Northern Manya.Thank goodness, Jane finally answered the phone."Why didn’t you say something earlier? It’s not safe here, you should head back.""Don’t worry. I’ve traveled all over on my own before…"Jane interrupted with a sigh. "Did you forget when you were saved?"Jordan sighed. "Let’s not bring that up."Jane said seriously, "Listen to me, head back quickly. We’re fine. I’ll find you when I’m back in the country."Just as Jordan was about to say something, a familiar male voice sounded in the background."Let’s go."Jordan didn’t want to, but Jane also heard Westley’s voice, urging her, "It’s safer with h

Jordan expressed her understanding. "The great calamity has passed, and from now on, it will be all good, happy, and peaceful days."Jane nodded. "I hope your words come true."But Zachary did not wake up as quickly as they had hoped.Jane insisted that Jordan return to the country, but Jordan was determined to stay with her.She even said she would take some documentary photos while she was there.One day, while Rebecca went to the hotel to change clothes, Jane sat by Zachary's bedside.Charlotte went to the door to keep watch, leaving the space for them both.Zachary was still unconscious, and Frank had to return to Jeswood. In addition to overseeing his own business, he also had to help keep an eye on the Collins family’s business.As soon as Charlotte closed the door, she received a message.She replied to confirm she was fine and then sat down on a nearby chair.In the room, Jane held Zachary's hand.As she got closer, she noticed a strand of grey hair behind his ear.

The little girl covered her mouth and giggled, “Have a guess, Mom.”Jane was about to say something when the door to the ward opened.A beautiful but unfamiliar woman walked in.Her gaze fell on the little girl's face, and she smiled helplessly. “Gemma, are you playing tricks again?”The little girl ran up to her and hugged her legs, her voice clear and sweet. “Mom!”Actually, the little girl didn’t need to say anything. When the woman revealed a dimple on her cheeks, both Jane and Charlotte had already guessed.The mother and daughter looked very alike.“Hi, Tanner Mayes.”Jane hurried over and shook her hand. “Are you Dr. Greyson's sister-in-law?”For some reason, she felt a trace of coldness flash in Tanner’s eyes.Tanner didn’t answer the question. Instead, she said, “Let me see the patient.”Jane quickly moved aside and pointed to Zachary.Tanner walked to the bedside and checked Zachary's pulse.Jane was well aware of Carter’s medical skills. He was famous for saving

Such a wonderful thing as a proposal happened today.Tonight should at least count as a wedding night, right?The assistant hadn't expected them to argue. He thought Westley might have gone out to buy something to use later."I'll take you to the supermarket.""Head back to the hotel."Westley gave an order in a cold voice, then opened the door and got into the back seat of the car.The assistant was completely confused but still drove toward the hotel.He had never seen a couple argue right after getting engaged.But as an assistant, it wasn't his place to ask questions.Jordan couldn't sleep.By the time she got up, she had two dark circles around her eyes.She was about to put on makeup when she thought about their fight last night.Would their remarriage even happen today?If not, there was no point in dressing up.She hesitated in front of the mirror for a long time before finally putting on makeup to cover the dark circles.But she still didn't look happy.After c

"You're really not letting me in?"When Westley said this, he stared at her intently, his tone slightly rising at the end. It was obvious that he didn’t mean just entering the house.There was a deeper meaning.Jordan pulled her hand back and kicked him."Get lost, you pervert."Westley glanced at the shoe print on his leg and laughed. "What did I say? Who's the one with a dirty mind here?"Jordan was indeed at a loss for words. She was angry because he had seen right through her.She was frustrated that her emotions were always so easy to read.Especially in front of someone as sharp as Westley—there was nowhere to hide.That made her even angrier."Let me tell you, even if I agreed to your proposal, I can still take it back."As she spoke, she reached for the ring, intending to take it off.Westley caught her hand and pressed her fingerprint against the scanner.When the door opened, Jordan was stunned."Westley!""Yes?" Westley responded, pulling her into the house.

Jane glanced at the screen and said, "At least Westley has quite high EQ. I'm actually quite satisfied with that."Originally, the two of them had gotten married first, without actually being in a relationship, and even after the marriage, they hadn't managed to develop any feelings.It should have been the other way around. First, dating, then proposal, and finally marriage.Zachary asked her, "Now that you're fully recovered, and Charlotte has also finished making your wedding dress, when are you going to marry me? Or do you want me to propose to you again?"Jane raised her hand to stop his approach, but then used her finger to gently trace his jaw.Her eyes were full of allure.During this time in recovery, she hadn't been able to do anything.Afraid that she wouldn't take care of herself well, he hadn't even asked for her help to satisfy his desires.He had handled everything himself.Now, he couldn't bear it when she looked at him with such a teasing gaze.Zachary grabbe

He also took her to the highest point and used a telescope to look at the sky."Look at that one, it's your star, it's called Jordy."Jordan looked in the direction he pointed, and indeed, she saw a bright, shining star.By naming the star, it truly belonged to her.This was like picking a star from the sky.And he had also made so many stars for her using diamonds.Perhaps it was the atmosphere, but she took the initiative to hug Westley.Westley stood still and said, "I haven't broken our agreement. What’s the meaning of this?"He knew what she meant.But deep down, he was happy.Jordan let go of him and said, "Tomorrow is the awards ceremony.""Yes." Westley looked at her. "Are you nervous?"Jordan shook her head. "What's there to be nervous about? I've won awards before. I've already won the biggest awards, this time it's just a small one."Westley's gaze darkened. "I'll pick you up tomorrow to do your styling."At that moment, Jordan didn't realize he had a deeper in

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
