Ex-husband’s Regret Chapter 826
‘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

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

"Yes, that’s right." Jane nodded like mad. "You really do know me." Charlotte patted her shoulder. "Don't worry, you won't be able to get your marriage certificate that easily." Jane asked, "Why do you say that?" Charlotte said, "Don’t you know what kind of status Zachary’s father has? If he casually makes a call, who would dare to enter your details into the system at the Civil Affairs Bureau?" "That's true." Jane had just been blinded by anger earlier. Now, she wasn't worried at all. Michael also breathed a sigh of relief, but he still apologized to Jane. Jane waved her hand. "Let's not talk about this anymore." However, she still apologized to Madam Hall. "Sorry for scene." Madam Hall smiled and said, "I'm old enough to have seen many things. This little scene won't scare me. I'll go prepare the bed for you. I have a room with a big bed, enough to fit all of you. It will be more convenient for you to talk there." Jane went to help. Michael p

The man who had just sat down was Caleb's younger cousin, Blake Hilton.He was a police officer.His parents had died in the line of duty. The Hilton family had originally not wanted him to follow the same path.But he had chosen it anyway, without hesitation.Whether it was because of his profession, or the fact that his own parents were no longer around — even though the Hilton family was tightly bonded — he remained quiet and reserved.Whitney wasn't much of a talker either, so she had barely exchanged more than a few words with him.Besides, every time the family had a meal, he was always the last to arrive.She had long since gotten used to it, never questioning why.Lately, though, she had heard rumors that he had fallen for someone.She had noticed the slap mark on his face at the last family gathering. And this time, his aunt had used the word "again".Blake said nothing.The others understood without needing to say a word, but Dianne had always been the type to spea

She really hadn't expected that someone could ask their parents for pocket money so brazenly.She had never seen it before.It truly opened her eyes."Are you okay?" Janet quickly patted her back to help her catch her breath, while Caleb pulled out a tissue and gently wiped her mouth.Whitney, embarrassed, said, "I'm sorry, I...""What are you apologizing for?" Caleb casually wiped the table as well. "It's nothing. Everyone chokes on water now and then.""Exactly," Millie chimed in cheerfully. "I choked on water just yesterday.""Alright, enough talking. Bring out the dishes and let's eat!" Lia called out, setting a plate of food in front of Whitney. "Try this and see if you like it."Whitney had always felt that, to the Hilton family, she was an outsider.So every time she came over, she couldn't help but feel nervous and constrained.Especially facing so many elders, she was neither sweet-tongued nor good at small talk.Every time, it was Caleb who managed all the social i

Whitney quickly stood up and called out, "Aunt Stephanie."Stephanie curved her lips into a smile and nodded."Stephanie!" Lia said as she came out of the kitchen. "How come you’re here by yourself? Where's Steve?"Steve Hilton was Lia’s eldest son and also Stephanie’s husband."He had something to take care of and will be a bit late. We can start eating first."She looked at Millie and asked, "Millie, what were you saying about me?"Millie immediately tattled, saying that Gilbert had bullied her.Stephanie didn't even ask for details, she just swung her fist and punched Gilbert.She had trained before, so the punch was solid and strong.But Gilbert had also trained, and he had grown up. Otherwise, if it had been when he was little, he wouldn't have been able to take it.This kind of situation had often happened when Millie was young — as long as the little girl cried and complained, he would get beaten by his own mother."I don’t think she’s your daughter-in-law. I think sh

Whitney wanted to thank Georgina through Millie, but Georgina said there was no need.However, simply having a meal together was acceptable.Up to now, they had only eaten together once.She wasn't very good at interpersonal interactions.On top of that, she had been busy with work early on and had gone on a business trip for a while, and almost all of her remaining time had been taken up by Caleb."Whitney, if you have time, I'd like to ask Georgina out for a meal. Sorry to trouble you.""No problem. Georgina told me that she’s missed you as well."Whitney didn't know what to say, so she could only force a smile.Millie already knew her personality and didn't mind, continuing to talk about amusing things on her own.She even asked how the wedding had gone for her this time.Whitney said, "It was great. I got along really well with Mrs. Howard and her two sisters. They're all wonderful people. I'll introduce them to you sometime.""That's great. I like making friends. The mo

The guard at the door saluted and let Caleb's car pass.As soon as Whitney got out of the car, she saw the Lia waiting at the door."Whitney!"She paused for a moment before being pulled inside.When she had first married Caleb, the Hilton family hadn't been this warm toward her.Caleb rarely took her back to the Hilton family's residence, except for the mandatory monthly family dinners.Sometimes, if a family member hosted a dinner that couldn't be refused, they would eat together.The Hilton family had been polite to her, and it was quite decent.But this time, she felt something was different.She didn't know what to say, so she gave a stiff smile.Caleb followed behind at a slow pace, breaking the awkwardness. "It's so cold outside. Why not wait inside?""The air inside’s quite dry due to the heating," said Lia. "I felt short of breath, so I came out to get some fresh air."Caleb asked in concern, "Did you do your regular checkup?"Lia replied, "I've done it. Stop nagg

Whitney was very surprised.She had eaten at the Hilton family's residence before.But because she wasn't picky about food, she just ate whatever was available.Caleb’s grandmother, Lia Hilton, had asked her if there was anything she particularly liked.She shook her head and said she could eat anything.What Lia prepared wasn't something she particularly liked, it was just a local specialty from her hometown.Her hometown was located in the mountains and it wasn’t very inconvenient to come in and out of there, so they had to make do with what they had.Thus, local plants became a speciality.But she never had the luxury of eating such high-quality food, even chewing on the food was a treat.After she escaped, she had made it herself, but thought it was just so-so.For a moment, she didn't know what to say.She wasn't adept at handling other people's kindness.Moreover, she and Caleb hadn't married for love.Sometimes she thought, it would be better not to get too close to

It even gave her the goosebumps.She didn't dare lift her head, picking up her plate to go wash it in the kitchen.She could already imagine that Caleb was definitely laughing at her right now.Caleb grabbed her wrist and pressed her down on a chair."I'll do it. You go take your post-meal medicine."Whitney felt uneasy. "You cooked, so let me do it.""No need. Go take your medicine. Since you went to the doctor, you should follow the advice."Whitney had no choice but to go take the medicine.And right now, she did indeed want to put some distance between herself and Caleb.After taking the medicine, she had nothing else to do, so she took out her phone and checked the work group.Then she saw a message from Tanner."I forgot to tell you, although the post-meal medicine that treats your issue, it has some side effects."This message had been sent when she was boarding the plane. At the time, she was apologizing to Caleb.Later, Caleb asked her to sleep for a while.She o

The evening glow had not yet appeared on the horizon.But her stomach had already reached the time to eat.Caleb rolled up his sleeves, took ingredients out of the fridge, and walked into the kitchen, reminding her to take her pre-meal medicine."The tea maker is on, there's hot water."Whitney took the medicine, then returned to the kitchen to help wash the vegetables.She knew how to cook, after all, making something herself was cheaper than eating out.And in the mountains, as a girl, she had to know how to cook.However, since coming to the Hilton family, they had a dedicated cook, and she had never been allowed into the kitchen.Now, seeing that it was just her and Caleb, she wondered if Caleb had ever even entered the kitchen, so she asked if he wanted anything and she could cook for him."After you finish washing the vegetables, just put them here."Whitney started boiling water, but Caleb pushed her out of the kitchen. "Wait outside."Whitney wanted to speak but didn

"You claimed to be fair, only trusted your own investigation results, not just believing hearsay, didn't you?"What he said was actually in line with what she had hoped for.It was also a beautiful wish of hers.But in this world, many things were not absolutely fair.Her job was to serve the people and provide justice to the best of her ability.However, she would never trust what anyone else said, she needed to look into things herself, and only after solid evidence would she act.Whitney could tell that he wasn't complimenting her, but mocking her, which made her feel somewhat ashamed."As for your situation, I've been biased from the start."Mainly because, she didn't plan on getting involved with Caleb.She didn't need to stand up for him.She had no interest in what kind of person Caleb was.So, she never thought that those rumors about him would become the trigger for him being angry with her."Sorry."Caleb seemed to have realized what she was thinking earlier.He
