I clutched my aching chest until my knuckles turned white. Tears streamed down my cheeks.

Why did everything have to become such a mess?

I wanted to tell Dylan about Jessy! So why were we fighting over something so trivial instead?

I pressed my fingers against the bridge of my nose. Slowly, I drew in a deep breath, trying to calm the storm of emotions raging inside me.

I managed to get up from the floor and leave the room, intending to follow Dylan to his room. But when I stepped outside, I saw

  • HIS REGRET AFTER HER LAST 100 DAYS   98. Not Ready to Let Go

    Dylan wouldn’t let me go to the hospital. So, the only information I could get about Abraham came from Brenda, who called me. She told me everything in a nasal voice, having just finished crying.“Fortunately, Mr. Abraham made it through the critical period, Mrs. Anna,” Brenda told me softly. I could hear her taking a deep breath on the other end of the line. “You don’t need to worry about this, Mrs. Anna. Everything is better now. For the moment, just focus on your treatment, Mrs. Anna.”I fell silent, clutching my clothes.“I’ll keep trying, Brenda. Thanks for the information.”“Oh, and Mr. Dylan has been at the hospital for the past three days without coming home. Don’t you want to ask him to come home for a while? He looks terrible,” Brenda whispered.“Just leave him be, Brenda,” I said briefly. “That’s enough. I’m hanging up.”After ending the call, I walked to Dylan’s bedroom. Without the slightest hesitation, I stepped inside and closed the door behind me. For a moment, I breat

So why were we fighting over something so trivial instead?I pressed my fingers against the bridge of my nose. Slowly, I drew in a deep breath, trying to calm the storm of emotions raging inside me.I managed to get up from the floor and leave the room, intending to follow Dylan to his room. But when I stepped outside, I saw him coming through the open door with a file in his hand.My eyes widened as he raised the papers in front of me.“We might as well get divorced today,” he said coldly. “I’ll give you fifty percent of my assets.”He held out the file and pen.I stared at him, then shook my head. I had no intention of taking either from him.“No, no, Dylan... this isn’t right. You’ve got it all wrong.”“Got it wrong? You were in a room with Vallen, and he asked you to marry him!” Dylan snapped. He let go of the

  • HIS REGRET AFTER HER LAST 100 DAYS   96. When He Gets Jealous

    When I woke up, I was already dressed in a long gown. My body lay on my bed with the blanket pulled up to my chest. I sat up, pressing a hand against the side of my head, then glanced at Vallen, who was sitting beside my bed with a worried expression.I noticed that my arm had already been bandaged.“The wound wasn’t too deep, so I didn’t have to stitch it,” he said.Vallen reached for my hand. He clasped my fingers tightly before speaking again in a gentle voice. “Can you end this, Anna?”“What do you mean?” I asked, confused by where the conversation was going.“The maid said Jessy caused this injury. She even told me Jessy held you underwater,” Vallen explained. His thumb gently stroked the back of my hand. “Anna, I can’t stand seeing you suffer like this because of Dylan.”My lips fell silent at his words. For some reason, I couldn’t sense the concern of a friend in his voice. What I felt from his words was something more tha

    Jessy shouted at all the servants who were watching. “If any of you dare come closer and help her, I’ll fire you right now,” she threatened, leaving them all too intimidated to move.I was still in the water, trying to climb out of the pool. But Jessy shoved me, sending me back into the water. My body was already weak, and my breathing had become ragged.“I didn’t think you’d be this reckless, Anna.” Jessy crouched down in front of me.“You should also know better than to pick a fight with me. Dylan certainly won’t just stand by and do nothing.”“All right. Looks like you want to play games with me,” she said coldly.My heart pounded hard. For some reason, I had a terrible feeling about this. The predatory look in Jessy’s eyes forced me to realize just how bad my situation was. If I didn’t move now, Jessy might do something.As best I could, I dragged myself out of the pool while Jessy left the pool area.My legs were trembling. Every breath sent a sharp ache through my chest, while m

  • HIS REGRET AFTER HER LAST 100 DAYS   94. Price of Knowing

    ANNAAt Dylan’s request, I headed to his office to avoid Jessy. I had no idea why he had told me to do that. Something must have happened earlier.When I arrived at the office, his employees greeted me cheerfully. I was escorted to Dylan’s office and offered a drink. While waiting for Dylan to arrive, I tried calling him, but he never answered.After waiting for half an hour, the door opened. I got to my feet and greeted him with a cheerful smile. But a second later, my smile faded when I saw Erwin standing there, staring at me with a furrowed brow.“Mrs. Anna? What are you doing here?”“Dylan told me to come here.”Erwin raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled by my presence. He approached me and scratched his cheek. “Wasn’t Mr. Dylan supposed to pick you up?”Now I was the one confused by his words. “Dylan didn’t pick me up. I came here by myself,” I said as I reached into my pocket, trying to pull out my phone again.“That’s strange,” Erwin muttered. “Mr. Dylan was going to pick you up

  • HIS REGRET AFTER HER LAST 100 DAYS   93. A Growing Suspicion

    “Now everything is clear,” I said, breaking the silence between us. There was no longer any passion in our gazes. All that remained was anger.My body grew hot after hearing the explanation from the doctor treating Lea.“Because of that minor accident, Miss Lea suffered a miscarriage. A few hours ago, we finished performing a D&C procedure on her,” the doctor explained.I did not take my eyes off Lea’s pale face for even a second. I was certain she would report everything to Jessy after this, and then Anna would be the one to suffer the consequences of their anger. The thought of her being tortured like before made my blood boil.“Thank you for the explanation, Doctor.”“You’re welcome, Mr. Dylan. If that’s all, I’ll take my leave,” he said before leaving the room.Lea got up and approached me, but I raised a hand, stopping her.“Don’t come any closer,” I said sharply. “There’s no need to defend yourself anymore. I’ve heard everything. Even without you explaining it, I understand the

    "Vallen, just pretend you never saw any of this," I said calmly."Damn it, Anna, what do you mean? How am I supposed to stay quiet after seeing something this unfair?

    For nearly half the day, I lay in bed, curled up as I stared blankly through the open window. My body felt hot, and I was utterly exhausted even though I hadn't done anything physically demanding.Fortunately, Jessy wasn't home. She was probably working at her boutique.
