All Chapters of Ex-husband’s Regret: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

On the day of our third wedding anniversary, Ryan Frost spent a ton of money to buy a necklace that I had liked for quite some time.Everyone said that he loved me to the bottom of his heart.I was preparing a candlelight dinner whilst feeling overjoyed, but that was when I received a video.In the video, Ryan Frost personally helped another girl put on the necklace. "Congratulations, you're reborn."It seemed that today wasn't only the day of our wedding anniversary, it was also the day that his true love got her divorce.I had never thought that such a thing would happen to me.Even though the marriage between Ryan and me wasn't because the two of us fell in love with each other, he still pretended to dote on me in front of others.I sat in front of the dining table, looking at the steak that had gone cold and the words at the top of the trending searches. "Ryan Frost Spending Millions to Please His Wife."I felt every single word of that sentence taunting me.It was two o'c

I was completely dumbfounded.I looked at the email over and over again as if I was trying to confirm something.I wasn’t seeing things.Jessica suddenly became the director of the Design Department, my superior.“Do you know her, Charlotte?”Jane could tell that something wasn’t right. She reached out and waved her in front of my eyes as she tried to guess what was going on.I put down my phone. “Yes, she’s Ryan’s stepsister that I told you about before.”After graduation, my roommates went their separate ways. But Jane and I had been good friends throughout university. We promised each other to stay in Jelaston and not go anywhere else.“Fuck! So she got this position because she’s Ryan’s stepsister?” cursed Jane.I was rendered speechless.‘She’s probably more than just his stepsister,’ I said inwardly.“Is Ryan out of his mind?” Jane continued to complain. “Why does she get to be the director? I’ve never heard of her in the design industry before, but Ryan just gave her the positio

Jessica knew that Ryan was waiting for me.She was the one asking for us to give her a ride, but she still sat in the passenger seat.I really wanted to turn on my heels and leave, but reason told me to stay. I reached out my hand and said to Ryan, "Keys."Ryan remained silent and just placed the keys in my hand.I walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat. I smiled as I looked at the surprised look on Jessica's face. "No problem at all. You're Ryan's sister, so it's normal for you to ask us to give you a lift."After saying so, I looked at Ryan, who was still standing next to the car. "Get in. Grandpa is probably already waiting for us."No one spoke throughout the journey.It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.Jessica wanted to talk to Ryan, but she didn't because she probably felt that it would seem a little awkward if she kept on turning around to talk to Ryan.Ryan had probably sensed my unhappiness, so he opened a bottled drink and passed

Ryan was a little surprised at my actions, but said nothing.I pursed my lips and said softly, "What happened on the night of our wedding?"I could still remember waiting on the balcony the whole night for him.Ryan abandoned his newly wedded wife on the night of their wedding and left without saying a word.I thought it was because of something important and worried about his safety. I even thought that he was unhappy with something I had done and hoped that he would come back home soon.Back then, I was only 23 years old. I somehow was able to marry the man that I had a crush on for years.How could I not look forward to our marriage?I only found out today that he was with another woman during our wedding night.Everything sounded like a joke.Ryan didn't keep anything from me. His voice was still soft. "She went street racing that night and had an accident. I was notified by the police to pick her up."'What a coincidence. She just had to have an accident on the night of

Every move they made felt like a slap in the face to me.My heart ached more and more.I had imagined such a scene countless times.As I watched what was happening, I began to feel cold even though I was at home."Charlotte, you're awake!" Jessica said with a smile when she turned around and saw me. "Come and have a taste of Ryan's cooking. I promise you it's delicious."As soon as she said those words, she began placing dishes on the dining table as if she were the hostess of the house.I took a deep breath, walked past her, looked at Ryan, and asked, "Why is she in our house?"Ryan brought out the last dish, removed his apron, and said coldly, "She'll get lost after having lunch.""How can you be so heartless? Are you really going to kick me out of the house?" Jessica glared at him."That's enough, Jessica! I'll kick you out myself if I get any more from you!" Ryan's was dark and sounded like his patience had run out."You're so mean," Jessica mumbled as she dragged me over to the di
