All Chapters of Ex-husband’s Regret: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

I was drinking yogurt when I heard her last few words, and I choked hard.After recovering, I finished my meal and poked her cheek. "Can you have a little dignity?""It's a seven-digit number. You can handle it, but I can't." Jane's head was spinning from the money. "Actually, for the sake of money... surrendering a bit isn't impossible. Anyway, Jessica is his father's woman. Nothing could have happened between them.""You better dispel that thought right now." As we prepared to leave the house, I said, "That Lauren is still thinking about having Ryan marry Jessica.""What?"Jane put on high heels, looking like her worldview had been shattered. "She's been in a coma for so many years, is she an idiot now? Besides, didn't she have a huge fight with Jessica the other day? And now they're all buddy-buddy again?""Who knows." I picked up my bag and opened the door.Jane's imagination ran wild. "What if they're trying out something new?""What new thing?""Like a threesome?"She w

Being asked such a question in public, I suddenly felt at a loss for words.Because she had a point. It was her birthday party after all. She had the right to decide on every guest.Before I could speak, Frank lightly glanced at her and casually made up a story. "I begged her for a long time before she agreed to grace me with her presence. Now you want to kick her out?"With these few words, he instantly eased my embarrassment.Hearing this, Bethany pouted unhappily. "Since when did you become so close with her..."Frank lowered his eyes with a hint of sarcasm, "Do I need to report to you?""Then didn't you know Ryan would come? You brought her here just to embarrass me...""Alright!" The middle-aged lady smiled gently and intervened. "You two, always quarreling since childhood, haven't you had enough?"Her tone and expression were both gentle.She continued, teasing Bethany, "You're already a grown up, thinking of marrying Ryan, yet still so childish?"As I heard this, my g

Looking at him in that state, a complicated emotion welled up within me.Suddenly, I understood the meaning behind the saying, "Late passion is worth nothing."I pursed my lips. "It’s up to you if you believe it or not."With that, without casting another glance at him, I walked away. I wasn't sure if it was because I didn't want to look or didn't dare to.Whatever he thought, it didn't matter that much to me anymore.I just wanted to live my own life well.That was all.Unfortunately... I forgot, many things were simply beyond my control.Just as I reached the hotel lobby, I ran straight into Simone.It was strange. I didn't have much goodwill toward Bethany, but I felt no aversion toward her parents. In fact, I found them quite friendly.Our eyes met, and I smiled at Simone. However, her face remained expressionless as she scrutinized me again, even more nakedly than she had at the banquet hall.I smiled politely. "Aunt Simone, I'll be leaving now."Simone appeared gentle

I wasn't surprised that he asked that. I nodded. "Yeah."Frank glanced at the cake in my hand, then lifted his gaze to me, his eyes carrying a scrutinizing look, "Did you... grow up in Jelaston?"I hesitated for a moment, then realized he was still on the path of finding his ex-fiancee. Anyone with similarities might pique his curiosity.I admired his perseverance over the years and thus answered patiently and carefully, "No, I grew up in Nesax. It's quite far from both Jelaston and Jeswood.""Is that so," he murmured almost imperceptibly, his brown eyes dimming slightly.Yet his gaze remained fixed on me, as if he wished to see another person through me.I chuckled lightly. "The Shaw family found a replacement daughter, and now you're looking for a replacement fiancee?"I had to admit that the daughter of the Shaw family was really unlucky.But people would move on, and it had been so many years. It was normal.After hearing this, Frank's lips curved into a smile, but there w

I thought of the injuries on Aunt Laura's body and said coldly, "We won't be family soon.""What do you mean?" His eyes flashed with a sharp light, then landed on the lawyer beside me. "Who is this? Why did you bring him here?""He's Mr. White, one of the top divorce lawyers in Jelaston," I introduced calmly. "This marriage is over whether you like it or not."Bob couldn't keep up the act anymore. Enraged, he jumped up to hit me, but the bodyguards restrained him!His face flushed with anger as he shouted, "Charlotte, you're utterly ungrateful! Now that you've married into an affluent family, you dare treat me like this? Forcing me to divorce your aunt?""Whether I'm ungrateful or not, Aunt Laura will know." To me, the only one who had truly shown me kindness was Aunt Laura. He had nothing to do with me.Bob gritted his teeth and cursed, "Fine! We can divorce! But I want to split the assets evenly!"I glanced at him. "What assets do you two have left to split? Even if there are,
