Chapter 661

Author: Lean
"No need for 'buts.'" Frank patted my head. "A favor is a favor. He helped us, and I'll remember this debt of gratitude, but it can't serve as a shield for him hurting your friend."

I didn't have an opinion about Zachary that was this extreme.

I just wanted to know what he really meant for Jane.

He had been so cold before, speaking harshly, why was he suddenly playing this childish game now?

"Why can't he just say it directly?"

Frank opened his phone and showed me a picture.

"108 Ways to Pursue a Girl"

I tugged at the corner of my mouth. "What is this?"

Frank raised his chin slightly. "It means just what it says."

I put down the phone, thinking a bit. "Does he want to pursue Jane?"

"That's one way to understand it."

I felt a bit speechless. "But can't he just state his intentions first before taking action? Feigning illness really isn't charming at all."

Frank put some food on my plate. "Eat first, you need energy to get angry."

I chewed the food hard, incredul

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1552

    Whitney’s face flushed completely red as she hesitated, trying to get off his lap."You’d better not move again."The man’s voice was dangerously husky, and Whitney froze.The large hand gripping her slim waist tightened a bit."Whit, from today on, try to like me, okay?"Whitney nodded shyly."Ah!"Caleb lifted her up and headed straight for the bedroom."Don’t forget, there’s also exercise to help digestion."They hadn’t been intimate for a long time and had a little quarrel in between.After clearing up the misunderstanding, he showed her this little token of affection.That night was destined to be restless.When Caleb got up, he felt refreshed both in body and spirit.Looking at the person sleeping soundly beside him, he felt happiness take shape.He slowly withdrew his arm, adjusted her sleeping posture, and gently kissed her before getting up.He tidied up a bit and went to the kitchen to cook.During this time, he received a call from Philip."Can you still go

    Counting the days, she asked him the morning after tomorrow if he was already on his way back.Caleb said he was on his way back.Since it was the weekend, Whitney stayed in the living room, reading a book while waiting.Near noon, she went to prepare lunch.When the dishes were on the table, she saw Caleb enter and immediately went to greet him, taking his coat."Just in time, wash your hands and eat."Caleb changed his shoes and caught her hand to look at it.Whitney felt a bit embarrassed.He often held her hand, but his attitude had changed, and some things changed along with it."It’s nothing..."Caleb saw that her hand really wasn’t injured, he let go, and went to wash his own.After sitting down, Whitney handed him the cutlery.Caleb looked at the table full of dishes. Although not as refined as a restaurant’s, he still felt the happiness.In fact, in his life so far, except for being taken to the mountains against his will and almost forced into marriage, there had

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1550

    Whitney had never said it out loud, but being able to have a home—no matter how it came to be—still made her feel happy.However, she didn’t dare to hope for real feelings to develop between her and Caleb.Feelings were too unpredictable—someone could like you today and lose interest tomorrow.A peaceful breakup might at least leave some dignity, but what if it turned ugly?Even if she had Zachary backing her, she didn’t want to cause trouble for him.She thought that a relationship based on clearly defined interests and mutual respect might offer more days of happiness.Maybe even a lifetime, if possible.Caleb, when facing her in person, might have been able to guess some of what she was thinking.But over the phone, he couldn’t fully grasp the meaning behind her words."If someone else cooked for you, would you also feel happy?"That was probably true.Whitney didn’t tell the truth. "Not necessarily."There were too many possibilities in a "not necessarily."Caleb wante

    She saw that Janine had gotten up."Whitney, here, have some fruit."Whitney was stuffed with a piece of melon."What’s for dinner tonight?"Whitney walked toward the kitchen and saw that Janine had finished the breakfast she had left for her.But it didn’t seem like she’d had anything else, so she asked, "You didn’t have lunch?""I got up around noon and heated the food you left me."Whitney understood. "We’re having steak and spaghetti for dinner."Janine put down the fruit and went to wash her hands to help."Whitney, if I were a man, I’d want to marry you."Whitney had never thought of herself as someone worthy of being liked.Thinking of Caleb, she wondered why someone like him would like her."Because I can cook, that makes me marriage material?"Janine widened her eyes and shook her head. "What kind of logic is that? I can’t believe that’s what you’re thinking. I think you’re amazing. I’m a girl and I like you—if I were a guy, I’d absolutely marry you.""What’s so

    Realizing this, she suddenly found something off.Had she... started to empathize with others?Georgina pinched Whitney’s cheek. "I’m off. We can meet again later.""Georgina, be careful on the roads.""Alright, you should head back inside."Whitney watched Georgina’s car drive away, then turned to head back inside.She got another call from Caleb."Have you brought her back home?"Whitney froze.She started to feel nervous. "I’m sorry..."This was Caleb’s house. Even though it was his cousin, she should’ve discussed it with him instead of making the decision on her own.Just now, she had only been focused on not wanting to leave Janine behind—she had forgotten to say anything to Caleb."What are you apologizing for?""I should’ve asked you first before bringing her back."Caleb chuckled. "If I said she couldn’t come to our house, what would you have done?"Whitney didn’t really have a solution. "Maybe... stayed with her at a hotel..."If Janine were alone in a hotel, Z

    "Alright, you go get some rest. I’ll go make you something to eat."Whitney poured a glass of water and handed it to Georgina. "Georgina, could you help feed her some water?""No problem."Georgina fed water to Janine and lifted her clothes to check—what she saw was appalling."Did you apply any medicine? Do you need to go to the hospital?"Janine shook her head. "I’ve already been treated. He brought a doctor."Georgina still felt distressed. "I’ve got to admit you have guts. You actually dare to provoke that guy.""There’s nothing I can do for you."Janine smiled faintly. "That’s why I didn’t call you. I got myself into this, I couldn’t drag you into the mess too."Zain was the only heir of his family—spoiled and arrogant, fearless of anything.If Georgina got involved, things would’ve turned ugly.It would’ve been a lose-lose situation—something she never wanted to see."I actually thought, once he vented his anger, it’d be over. That’s why I didn’t ask for Whit’s help w
