Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 825
Charlotte took out the invitation. "I can't leave for now. Zachary's wedding... it's in three days."Frank, being Zachary's childhood friend, couldn't possibly miss it.Jane glanced at the invitation and said, "Then I'll head over and wait for you guys.""Are you planning to stay for a while, or are you planning to get married?" Charlotte teased.Jane brushed her hair back and said with a meaningful smile, "Well, who knows?"Charlotte said, "Whatever you do, I’ve got your back, as long as you're happy."After organizing some work for the company, Jane booked a flight to Jeswood. Before taking off, she sent a message to Michael.Just as she was about to fall asleep after putting her phone down, the person next to her moved, then sat down again.That familiar, sharp scent of tobacco made her frown.Turning her head, she came face to face with the always cold and distant handsome face.After Jane's career took off and she started earning money, she never deprived herself.Of co

‘He’s like a madman, biting anyone he saw,’ thought Jane."Jane, have some water to rinse your mouth."Jane took the water.She rinsed her mouth and drank a few more sips.At least it helped to calm her down a little.Michael raised his hand and gently patted her back to help her breathe.Jane took a few deep breaths.Before she could exhale the last breath, the car suddenly braked hard.The driver cursed loudly.After steadying herself, Jane looked over between the two seats.She saw two cars blocking the taxi ahead.Before she could react, the car door on her side was opened.A bony hand reached in and pulled her out.Michael quickly tried to stop him, but was pressed back by Roy."Zachary, let go!" Jane struggled, but Zachary directly lifted her up and strode toward the black sedan.He sat her down in the back seat and ordered the driver to drive.Jane was furious and slapped him again.Zachary tapped his cheek with his tongue, his voice calm as he said, "If you'r

Zachary furrowed his brows. "You didn't understand what I meant, or…""I understood." Jane interrupted him. "You used Nina to protect me.""But I don’t need that. Nina made a mistake. She should bear the consequences of her actions. But she has no obligation to be my shield. And I don't need her to be a shield for me. If I were to be with you, I'd naturally be prepared for everything that’s coming at me. But Zachary, we’ve broken up now."After saying that, Jane tried to get up from his lap.Zachary tightened his large hand around her slender waist. "I never wanted to break up with you. I agreed because I didn't want you to be unhappy. But if you want to be with Michael, then I can't go along with it."When they were in love, communication didn't seem difficult.At Jane’s house, they had spent sweet and happy times together.But after suggesting the break up, Jane realized many problems.It wasn't something that could be solved with just saying "I love you."To be honest, she

"You don't need to be with Michael, I won't keep you trapped."Wasn't that still a demand?She had to do what he said to gain freedom.Jane shook her head.Zachary felt like his head was going to explode.After giving it some thought, the conversation returned to the original question."What's the reason you wanted to break up with me? Did you fall in love with Michael?"Jane had been flying back and forth on planes these past couple of days and she was really tired.She had originally planned to rest for a bit in the lounge chair when she arrived at Madam Hall's little courtyard.The food on the plane wasn't tasty, and Michael had sent her a message when she landed, saying that Madam Hall had specially prepared dinner for her.There was also roasted potato.But instead, Zachary had restrained her, and she hadn't had the chance to rest. She was still hungry.She had no patience to argue with him any longer."Yes."As soon as she finished speaking, she went from sitting to
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 829
Jane smiled, "Thank you, Madam Hall.""No need to thank me."Michael brought the food to the table. "Let’s dig in."Jane was truly hungry. She first drank a glass of orange juice to get her stomach started, then began eating heartily.It wasn't fully dark yet. The mountains in the distance were bathed in an orange glow.The sunset was beautiful, and the small courtyard was very comfortable.Jane's stomach was round from eating, and she let out a satisfied burp.It was perfect.Meanwhile, at the hotel.Ross glanced at the dining table. Not a single bite of food had been touched.Since arriving at the hotel room, Zachary had taken a cold shower and then sat by the window smoking.He never expected Zachary, someone who was so talented, to stumble when it came to love.Though Roy was currently keeping an eye on Michael's place, he didn't dare report anything.Ross, hiding in the shadowy corner, also made sure not to breathe too loudly.Finally, Zachary spoke up. "Has he arriv

The truth was that Jane had fallen for Zachary and was hurt.But luckily, she hadn’t lost all hopes in life.Three days later, Charlotte arrived at Michael's house with her child and Yasmin.Just as they arrived, Jane, wearing a straw hat, rolling up her pants, and covered in mud, was coming back.Charlotte's eyes widened. "For someone who always puts on makeup even to take out the trash, what happened to you? Have you become stupid after falling in love?"Jane shot her a glance. "Can’t you think of something good?"Charlotte laughed. "I do want to, but this—this really shocks me.""It looks good to me," said Yasmin. "The most comfortable state is the most beautiful."Jane looked at Yasmin, who had a peach-blossom glow on her face, and said, "Ms. Jackson seems to be enjoying the benefits of love. You seem to have changed.""Stop teasing me.""Why isn't Jason here?""He'll be here in the evening. He had a shoot that couldn't be postponed."Jane ushered them inside and introd

"What are you doing?" Michael immediately stepped forward, pulling the two apart and shielding Jane behind him. Frank pulled Zachary back. Zachary, who had originally wanted to pull Jane back, stopped. Michael, who usually appeared gentle and obedient, now glared at Zachary with burning eyes and shouted, "This is my house. Get out!" Zachary calmly wiped away the water on the corner of his lips with his thumb. His gaze toward Jane, however, was intense and burning. "Jane, come with me." At that moment, Jane just wanted to beat him up. "Michael, call the police." Michael immediately followed the order without hesitation. Zachary attempted to move forward again but was pulled back by Frank. Charlotte stood in front of Jane to protect her. "Mr. Collins, you two have already broken up. If you force her again, I'll have to tell your elders and let them handle you." "I didn't agree to the break up." Zachary's eyebrows narrowed as he spoke. "Jane, if you wan

Zachary watched their interaction, his gaze growing cold. "I'll marry you." Jane replied, "You dare come with me to get our marriage certificate now?" "What's there to be afraid of?" Jane paused for a moment. "After we’re married, I won't have any contact with your family. I don't like them. I won't attend any social events as your wife, and I won't care about your affairs, much less cook for you..." "You don't need to. I'll cook. If I'm not around, I’ll arrange for someone to deliver the food from the Summit." Zachary’s eyes softened a little. "Any other demands?" Jane gritted her teeth. "I want 200 million dollars as wedding gift." "Okay." Jane regretted her words a little. "Uh, but your family is definitely going to come make things difficult for me..." "They won't. I’ll prevent them from doing so." Jane looked to Charlotte for help. Charlotte didn't expect Jane to put herself in such a situation so quickly. She looked at Frank. Frank smirked. "Ho

“Georgina.” Whitney took the initiative to walk over and greet her. "Haven’t seen you in ages."Georgina smiled. "Everything's ready. Let's change first. We can talk while soaking in the hot springs."Millie led Whitney to the changing rooms.Yvonne mentioned that she had important guests today and would join them later.Georgina nodded.Caleb and Blake bumped into each other at the entrance.Blake had feelings for his family, but perhaps because he lost his parents at a young age, his personality had grown colder over the years.It wasn't that he didn't care, it was just that he couldn't be like Caleb, always smiling, with a more lively temperament."Caleb.""Blake."Caleb didn't waste time with pleasantries. There was no need between relatives.He walked briskly inside.Blake followed and asked what had happened.Caleb asked the receptionist where Millie's room was.The receptionist smiled professionally. "Mr. Caleb, I'm sorry, although you hold immense power, I still c

Whitney nodded.By the time they arrived, it was already dark.But the entrance of the hot spring resort was bustling with activity.People were coming and going, and the car park at the front was filled with luxury cars.Standing at the entrance was a woman in a purple gown, her figure stunning.In such cold weather, she was only wearing a form-fitting silk dress, and although she had a mink shawl draped over her shoulders, it had started snowing mixed with rain by now.Whitney felt a chill just looking at her.Then, glancing at herself, she realized she looked round and bundled up due to her thin frame, trying to stay warm.Compared to the woman in front of her, she didn't feel the least bit feminine."Yvonne!"Millie tugged Whitney over. "I brought my sister-in-law!"Yvonne excused herself from her guests, letting someone show them in, and then turned to face Millie and Whitney.The moment Whitney met her gaze, she felt a softening in her bones.It was a natural, effort

Caleb's temples throbbed.He regretted some of the things he had done to Millie when they were younger.Whitney was a bit worried, but Millie reassured her to not worry at all.In reality, Caleb was fine.If it weren't for Whitney, she would have exposed his little scheme by now."Gilbert will be here soon.""Also, the doctor said to observe him overnight, but he'll be fine. He can be discharged tomorrow. He's not missing any limbs. Whitney, it's okay to care about your husband, but don't spoil him too much. It'll bring bad luck."Whitney had never heard anything like this before.Millie always said things that were beyond her understanding.Maybe that's the difference between being spoiled growing up and struggling just to survive."Okay."She liked Millie, just as she liked Jane and the others—they were all great girls.Millie pinched her cheek. "That's more like it."Gilbert finished work at his usual time.When he arrived at the hospital, he thought for a moment and c

"You're still trying to make me gain weight." Millie was very kind to Whitney, always speaking in her favor, so she had to support her as well. "I always thought you liked a bit of meat on someone."Caleb wanted her to eat more, gain a bit of weight, and stay healthy.This was a setup, and he wasn't sure how to respond."Only giving me vegetables?"Whitney hadn't planned on cooking meat at all, but since Millie mentioned wanting some, she made cooked some meat."You can't eat anything greasy right now, but I've made some chicken. You can have some chicken."Caleb smirked. "I'll do as you say."Millie couldn't stand it anymore and clicked her tongue a few times.But Caleb didn't give her a chance to speak. "Can't the roast pork shut you up?"Millie was so angry that she gritted her teeth. After finishing her meal, she saw Whitney still feeding Caleb.Unable to stop herself, she said, "Caleb, you've got alcohol poisoning, not a broken arm. Whitney, you should eat. The dishes ar

Whitney felt that Millie probably had some longstanding grudge with Caleb from when they were kids.Therefore, she treated Millie with respect as well.That was why she said those words.What was so great about her?Being able to cook wasn't anything extraordinary.The Hilton family's status in Yelar was such that, had it not been for her good luck in becoming Zachary's sister and getting such an opportunity, she would have likely died in some unknown gutter.As for the various daughters of affluent families surrounding Caleb—beautiful, gentle, intellectual, and so on—the list was endless.Compared to her, they were a thousand times better.And yet, she still thought that Caleb marrying her was a loss.It wasn't as exaggerated as Millie had said."Millie, please don't say that. Caleb can cook for me, too. It's nothing special."Millie was shocked.Could Caleb even cook?But when she saw Whitney's expression, she realized that the times Caleb had cooked for her when they we

1461In the quiet ward, Caleb naturally heard those words.Whitney took a small step to the side, avoiding him.Caleb. ‘Oh, great.’"Alcohol poisoning," Whitney whispered to Millie.Millie exploded all of a sudden. "Alcohol poisoning?""Caleb used to drink for three days and nights straight without getting alcohol poisoning. If he got alcohol poisoning now, I'll livestream eating shit."Caleb could no longer stand it. He got up and snatched Whitney's phone.His voice was cold and low. "Millie, do you have nothing better to do?"Millie wasn't scared of him at all. "Trying to fool my sister-in-law, huh? Caleb, you really have no shame. Pursuing someone isn't done like this..."Caleb ended the call without another word.But who was Millie?Her grasp was not something one could get out of easily.She stormed straight to the hospital.Caleb's eyelids twitched when he saw her.But she didn't call him out, instead, she said, "I'll stay with Whitney and take care of you. When you
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1460
A flash of triumph appeared in Caleb's eyes as he raised his arm toward her.Whitney quickly pulled his arm over her shoulder, supporting him as she helped him get up.She hadn't expected him to lean all his weight on her, causing her to stumble slightly.Caleb took advantage of the moment, letting himself fall back onto the bed, and even deliberately let out a soft "hiss."Whitney immediately forgot about herself and rushed to check on him. "Did you hurt yourself?"Caleb pressed his hand to his head. "My head hurts."Whitney started to call for the doctor, but the man yanked her back toward him.Before she knew it, she was pressed against his chest.At that moment, her face felt like it was on fire."Are you messing with me?" Whitney was a little angry.She didn't like him, but she was still concerned about him.After all, though their marriage was far from perfect, they were still legally married.Caleb held her by the back of the head and gently pressed her down."Are y

But even though she sensed something was wrong, Whitney couldn't quite put her finger on it.In the end, she simply treated it as a test of her ability to handle unexpected situations.If something similar happened again—and with members of the Hilton family present—she couldn't afford to stay so calm and indifferent.That wasn't how a wife should react when faced with a rival.Tentatively, she asked, "I should have... stopped her and warned her?"Caleb felt she was finally on the right track, and gave a slight nod of agreement. Then he asked, "And after that?"‘After that...’Whitney had no real experience to draw from.She thought back to her school days, her part-time jobs, her internships.It seemed she had seen a wife confronting a mistress once.But back then, she had been too busy working hard and studying to pay close attention."Then I..."When she had walked in just now, she hadn't really seen anything inappropriate."Did she touch you?" she asked.How could Cal
Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 1458
Whitney had nothing to say.Even if Caleb's accusations were unreasonable, even if he was deliberately making things difficult, she still had to go along with it—and endure it."I'll keep that in mind."Caleb didn't feel any joy at her answer, but he still asked, "What exactly will you keep in mind?"Whitney replied obediently, "If the same thing happens again, I'll either send you a text or call you."Beneath his large palm was her small, soft hand. He brushed his thumb slowly across her skin and asked, "If I'm not home by six in the evening, what will you do?"Whitney answered with surprising seriousness, "Does a traffic jam count?"Caleb took a deep breath. "No. Let's say it's a normal day, I should be home on time, but I don't show up.""Oh..." Whitney nodded thoughtfully. "Then I'll call you and ask why you haven't come home."‘Good enough.’This topic could be put to rest.He released her hand and said, "I'm thirsty."Whitney immediately got up to pour him a glass of
