Chapter 71

Penulis: Lean
I was surprised. "How come everyone knows she's pregnant? This should be something very few people know about."

"Who knows." Jane crossed her legs, sitting down. "There are plenty of people willing to expose mistresses. She probably slipped up somewhere herself, and it spread."

"Just take a look and don't get involved," I said.

I wasn't a saint. Whether it was Jessica or Ryan involved in this kind of marital affair, whoever got criticized deserves it. But Ryan was difficult to deal with. If he decided to stand up for Jessica, I was afraid that Jane would get dragged into it. She was already struggling to survive in Jelaston on her own. She wouldn't withstand Ryan's suppression.

Jane uncomfortably rubbed her ear and muttered, "Got it." She spoke so fast I could barely make it out.

After filling our stomachs, I watched her take her medicine before she settled onto the couch to play games. Meanwhile, I lay on the coffee table, pondering over the designs for the competition.

OMG! If he lets her do this to Charlotte, then he deserves to be with that witch. Why is he allowing her to demean his wife like that? if he really loved Charlotte, he would have told Jessica that he doesn't want to be with her.

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1548

    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

    "I was thinking... of going over to take a look."Caleb glanced at the time. "Find Georgina."Whitney said, "But... Georgina said she couldn’t get involved. Otherwise, Janine would’ve asked her for help instead...""But I can’t really head back right now, and it won’t help if you took bodyguards over either. Zain is an experienced fighter. He’s the only heir of the Chase family. He would always have men protecting him wherever he goes. You just can’t see them, that’s all."By the time Caleb could return, it would definitely be too late.Whitney thought for a moment. "Then I’ll call Georgina and go take a look. If it’s nothing serious, I won’t interfere."Caleb knew her temperament. "Alright."After hanging up the phone, he contacted Zain and asked what was going on.Zain had already heard that Janine had called Whitney. Janine’s phone was currently in his hand."What’s the meaning of this, Caleb?""It’s been two days already and it’s still not over? She only set you up twice.

    Whitney felt a vague sense of unease.She checked the time and still decided to ask Caleb.Caleb replied that he had sent someone to handle the matter.She thought for a moment and said, "The people over there aren’t easy to deal with."Caleb replied, "I know."Whitney had nothing to say.She didn’t have the ability to interfere anyway.Still, her right eye kept twitching irritably."When are you coming back?"When Caleb heard that voice message, he paused for a moment and replied, "Do you miss me?"Whitney heard his deep, attractive voice and felt her ears grow warm.After a while, she replied, "Yeah."Caleb felt that he was just too easy to please.As long as she took even a small step toward him, he felt like he could give her his whole life."The project still needs some time, but I’ll make a trip back to sync the progress with my parents. I’ll be back in three days."Whitney. "Okay, I’ve made a note of it. Let me know when you board the plane—I’ll come pick you up."

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1544

    After going home last night, she scrolled through the news before bed.She saw disasters happening abroad and all kinds of accidents in the country.Thinking back to what Georgina had said, she truly felt that living in the moment was important.After all, she had made plans for the future, yet had no idea what the future would actually bring.When she was a child, all she wanted was to escape that hellish place.In her teens, she believed that if she could get accepted into a school elsewhere, she could gradually leave it all behind.But right before the high school entrance exam, her parents tried to sell her.She ran away from the old guy they had sold her to. She even begged for food on the streets, just so that she wouldn’t need to go back.The turning point came when she happened to save a boy who had been kidnapped and taken to her hometown. He was meant to be "adopted" by a family that didn’t have any children.The boy clearly came from a wealthy family.But her homet

    "You can’t arrest us just for offering a drink to a pretty lady, right?"Blake pulled Yvonne into a seat, then sat down beside her, saying nothing.Those few men, realizing they might know each other, and went back to their own table.Georgina asked Blake, "Have you eaten?"Blake gave a light grunt in response."Is that true? Or is it just that you can’t eat in that uniform?"Blake replied, "I’m on duty."Georgina looked over at Millie, who went to order more dishes—the kind Blake usually liked. She had asked the owner to pack the food she just ordered in takeaway boxes."Whitney."The sudden call made Whitney freeze mid-bite.And that uniform of his gave her a bit of a trauma.Back when she had asked for help, the police hadn’t been able to save her."W-what is it?"Blake asked, "Has Caleb left?"Whitney nodded, not sure why he was asking something he clearly already knew.She felt like he must’ve known, so there was no need to ask her directly.Blake didn’t say anythi
