All Chapters of Ex-Lover's Regret: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Adeline's POVI was still looking at the woman who bore a striking resemblance to my dead stepsister, taking in her face that was undoubtedly a perfect copy of Nicole, the damn woman I had hated for so long.She stood confidently, looking neither weak nor frightened like when I stood before her years ago when she was still alive with the Martinez Family. And her eyes, I didn't like seeing how that woman looked at me with an unwavering gaze.I hated her even more than Nicole. Memories of my inferiority complex when I first came to her house and saw every single one of her luxurious collection of items when we were teenagers, and her mother was still alive. I still remember her happy life and feel envious.I had finally managed to snatch everything I wanted from her eight years ago, and she had also been declared dead, but how could she still be alive and appear before me? Especially now that she was with the boy in her arms."How can she live like this?" I whispered so softly that they

Adeline's POVI bit my fingernails and exhaled, still thinking about that woman who looked like Nicole. I did say that I would find out about her, but I simply don't have the money to hire a private investigator and enough information other than the woman's name and appearance.There are so many people with the name Nicole, and I'm sure that she has a fairly market face that I'm not sure I can find her easily. The photo with her face was no longer in my possession because my mother and I had quickly removed all traces of her from our old house.I felt somewhat regretful, but it also felt strange not to have done so since the news of Nicole's death had been such happy news for my family. My stepfather even went straight to having fun, just as my mother and I went shopping to our heart's content.I was still deep in thought for a while until I heard Chris' voice, which surprised me. "What are you doing?" He said, making me turn my head to look at him.I had returned from my home to this

Nicole's POVTwo days went by quickly. I was about to head to a meeting this morning, a shareholder meeting that I had avoided attending for quite some time. Richard was next to me. He touched my hand lightly, so I turned to him."Mom, are you okay now?" Richard asked curiously, looking closely at my face to see how I was doing.I smiled, rubbing his cheek lightly as I said. "Of course, Richard. Mom is fine. This kind of thing is not a big problem that should make you feel bad, but instead, it makes you stronger."I was worried that I would run into Chris again today. He's a troublesome person because he doesn't just let go of someone who has made him curious, so I'm sure that when we meet, he will come back to talk to me.But I don't want to make Richard worry. This is a problem that I have to handle alone as the boy's mother and only parent. He just needs to be by my side safely and comfortably all the time as my only child."Alright, Mom." Richard nodded, tightening our grip as we

Nicole's POVI walked away from Chris without looking back, trying to keep my steps upright as long as I was within his line of sight. I turned into a blind spot where he wouldn't be able to see me and then leaned against the nearest wall.I exhaled, feeling still shaky from my encounter with Chris, which made me have to maintain a calm and firm demeanor when speaking to him, even though it was tough.My feelings were chaotic, mixed with lingering anger from memories.He had treated me coldly on the day of our wedding, leaving me at the altar alone with many eyes watching us. But how dare he show a different attitude when we met again as if he missed the old me.I touched my chest, which felt tight. "If he can be like this now, why did he do something like that before? Did he not love me enough to leave me alone back then?"I clenched my fists, turned my anger to the wall I was leaning against, and exhaled again. I thought about it several times, but I couldn't find the right reason t

Chris's POVTwo days have passed, and now it's late, and the rain can be heard pouring from my room. I've gotten a lot of work done over the past two days, but I can't sleep at all, given all the things I've been through.I looked up at the ceiling of the room, thinking of a woman who had been occupying my mind for a few days but had gotten worse after our last meeting, the shareholders' meeting. Nicole, who claimed to be someone I never knew.She was very stern and much colder than the woman I knew. That woman also never wanted to tell me her last name despite my several attempts to persuade her. Simply Nicole was all she wanted me to know as her name. However, no matter how much you think about it or how long you think about it, the faces of Nicole and Nicole Martinez, whom I have known for a long time, are very similar to each other.Only one thing stands out that distinguishes these two Nicoles from each other. Nicole, with no last name, had a genius child. The little boy was sti
