All Chapters of Ex-husband’s Regret: Chapter 241 - Chapter 250

I repeatedly told myself not to care anymore, but when I heard he was in trouble, my body acted beyond control.It seemed like over these eight years, a conditioned reflex had formed.I couldn't help it.As I grabbed my car keys and rushed out, trying to remain calm, I confirmed, "He's at St. Heart, right? I'm coming over.""Yes, VIP ward number one," replied Gary.On the way to the St. Heart Hospital, I managed to keep my composure, but my thoughts were in disarray.Although the Frost Group's current situation wasn't particularly good, it still stood as one of Jelaston's top enterprises. Moreover, there was always the possibility of a turnaround.Who would dare to openly set Ryan up at a time like this?Despite being mentally prepared, upon arriving at the ward and seeing Ryan sitting pale-faced on the bed, staring blankly out the window while doctors changed the bandages on his arms and chest wounds and applied fresh gauze, I was still somewhat taken aback.In an instant, my

I furrowed my brows, grasping the main point and pressing on. "For me? Is this injury of his because of something related to me?"Gary scratched his head. "Well..."I racked my brain but couldn't recall anything recent that could have caused trouble for Ryan. We had hardly interacted these days.Seeing Gary hesitating, I decided to cut to the chase. "If you won't tell me, I'll just ask him directly.""Don't..." Gary gave in frustratedly. "It's about the unfinished building incident on the outskirts of the city. Remember?""I remember." How could I forget being kidnapped for the first time in my life? But wasn't that resolved?Gary sounded exasperated as he continued, "It was Zack Johnson, that bald guy. He pressured us to give him the land in the west of the city. Later, realizing he couldn't handle it, he came back to beg Mr. Frost, but insisted on taking 80% of the profits, which Mr. Frost didn't agree to.""And then?""The night before last, he got desperate and tried to for

A few days ago, Simone asked me if I was suitable.At that time, nothing had happened yet, so I didn't have any thoughts about it.But when Bethany suddenly accused me to my face, blaming me for holding him back, I actually hesitated.After all, Ryan had been injured repeatedly recently, all because of me.In that instant when I heard the question, I wondered if everything would be different if he married Bethany.The Shaw family was prominent, and Bethany wouldn't just cause trouble for Ryan. She could even assist in many ways.Their union might add up to a number I couldn't imagine.But for Ryan and me, it seemed like 1 + 1 = 0.5.The excruciating pain in my lower back from banging into the corner of the cabinet became insignificant.Looking at Bethany's resolute appearance, for the first time, I couldn't come up with a rebuttal.Because of my humble family background, I was indeed holding Ryan back, indeed causing his misery.Causing him to be in the operating room for tw

I couldn't deny that these words were quite touching.Touching enough that for a moment, I almost wanted to forget all the past grievances, yet I still found it difficult to let go.Some things have long been etched deep in my heart, leaving a profound rift.It's like how, in the past, even if he stayed out all night, I would never suspect anything, only empathize with his sacrifices for the Frost family. But now, with everything that has happened, I can't trust anymore, nor can I love without reservations, consequences be damned.I would start to hold back, be guarded, suspicious, sensitive, and restless.Even if we reconciled, if things continued like this for long, they would eventually break apart. So, it was better to cut losses now."Ryan, let's stop talking about this. Let's both be rational.""I know you don't believe me, but I will do it." Ryan's tone was as solemn as making a vow.I lowered my gaze slightly and handed another document to him, changing the subject. "Yo

After hanging up the phone, Jane kept glancing at me sneakily.I was puzzled. "Why are you looking at me like that?""Do you think the investor Lynsey is introducing to us might be your ex-husband?""No way." I shook my head, but then I hesitated a bit. "Ryan just got out of the hospital, and I haven't heard him or Gary mention this recently.""Then who could it be?" Jane became puzzled.I couldn't guess either, so I said, "Well, since we have a dinner appointment, let's go and see. Jelaston is a small place. If it's someone we know, they can't keep their identity a secret.""Good point," Jane agreed.Later in the evening, after changing into a different outfit, I grabbed a beige wool coat and went with Jane to the dinner appointment.The restaurant was booked by Jane. Having worked in the marketing department for many years, she knew her way around social engagements.Upon arrival, the waiter led us to a private room.The private room faced the river and offered a view of th
