My brows furrowed slightly as I waited for him to continue.
“His name is Peter Taylor, the son of my eldest uncle. He possesses an extremely dark and twisted soul, with a combative nature. Even when I was young, he repeatedly provoked me, engaging in every form of scheming and plotting—even murder. In his attempts to eliminate me, he harmed the innocent and even caused the death of my foster sister. This enraged the then head of the family, my grandfather Karl Taylor.
“After that, Peter was sent abroad. I thought he had finally quieted down, but twenty-three years ago he returned to the U.S. He appealed to my grandfather’s blood ties, trying to win him over. My grandfather was a man of old-fashioned ideas, deeply patriarchal at heart. He believed that since Peter and I were both Taylor blood, and Peter seemed remorseful, I should give him another chance.
“At that time, my wife was pregnant with Scarlett. F

Regret After Divorce Chapter 163 Baby moved
Scarlett’s POV:After that, everyone endured another agonizing wait of over two hours.I returned to the hotel for a light dinner before Eleanor practically forced me onto the bed to rest.Though my eyes were closed, my mind remained wide awake, unable to drift off.Countless possibilities ran through my head, but the most frequent thought was: What if Everett really became disabled? What would I do then?He was such a proud man… if he became crippled…My frown deepened. I couldn’t even begin to imagine how devastating that outcome would be for Everett.Perhaps sensing his mother’s anxiety, the baby in my womb suddenly kicked several times.I snapped my eyes open, my breathing softening to a whisper.This was my first time feeling fetal movement… strong, distinct kicks.Fetal movements can occur early or late—some sensitive expectant mothers feel them as early as three months. But I hadn’t felt them until today.I gently placed my hand on my belly and felt it pulsing rhythmically bene
Regret After Divorce Chapter 162 Everett wants her heart
Scarlett’s POV:Hearing Alicia’s words, I felt a bit dazed. I turned to look at my father.He looked at me, visibly flustered. “I never wanted him to become crippled either. I have never denied his kindness. And I know that if he doesn’t pull through, you will be the one suffering the most.”I felt a sting in my nose and bit my lip.Alicia asked, “As for keeping you in the dark, it really can’t be blamed on Mr. and Mrs. Taylor. That was Everett’s decision.”Hearing this, I froze.Alicia observed my dazed expression and gently tapped my forehead. “You should know why he didn’t want you to know.”I remained silent.But the answer was already clear in my heart.Everett didn’t want me to know because he didn’t want my sense of guilt toward him to deepen—he didn’t want me to place too much weight on this debt of gratitude.But how could I not know?Everett’s right leg had become like this because of me…“Everett wants your heart, not your guilt or gratitude,” Alicia stated succinctly.I lo
Regret After Divorce Chapter 161 Maybe his right leg ruined
Davis’s POV:Outside the operating room, Alicia and I stood waiting for the operation to finish.The situation inside remained unclear.Footsteps approached.I turned and froze when I recognized the figure.Alicia followed my gaze, her elegant, distant-mountain brows arching slightly.Scarlett and the others walked straight toward us.Alicia looked at me and remarked meaningfully, “They’re here sooner than I expected.”I gave an awkward smile. “I didn’t snitch, you know.”Before entering the operating room, President had repeatedly emphasized that no one was to inform Scarlett about his surgery. Logically, the Taylor family should have been eager for her to remain unaware. Yet here they were… who had let the cat out of the bag?I looked at the tightly closed operating room door and sighed.Actually, it might be for the best that Scarlett knew. Who knows? Maybe this misfortune would turn out to be a blessing in disguise for President.Scarlett approached the entrance, looked at the doo
Regret After Divorce Chapter 160 What happened to Everett?
Scarlett’s POV:Hearing this, I fell silent. Eleanor studied my expression, then looked at Mom and Dad before saying,“It’s not that I don’t believe Miley. I just think it’s hard for someone’s ideology to change that easily. Mainly, her actions this time are too different from everything she’s done over the past decade.”“Ellie is right. It feels too strange to me too,” James added, scratching his forehead. “Even villains in dramas need a process to redeem themselves. This… it’s just too sudden.”Hearing this, Harvey, who had remained silent earlier, still said nothing.Mom looked at Dad. Dad nodded.“I understand your concerns, but Louis and Everett were both present. They examined the scene… under those circumstances, it was impossible for anyone to survive and escape.”“Discussing this now won’t get us anywhere. Let’s wait for the autopsy report.”“Scarlett is right,” Mom said with a smile. “But regardless, this operation was a success. From now on, our Scarlett will be free.” She
Regret After Divorce Chapter 159 Could it be a trick
Scarlett’s POVEleanor’s sudden question caught me off guard.I shook my head. “Not yet.”“Alicia mentioned you wanted to call him earlier. He should be reachable now. Aren’t you going to call?”“I…” I felt awkward for a moment.My state of mind last night was vastly different from today’s, and now I actually felt embarrassed about it.She noticed my hesitation and raised an eyebrow with a smile. “Actually, there’s no need to rush. You’ll meet Mr. Robinson when he returns to L.A. Whether it’s to express gratitude or apologize, saying it in person carries more sincerity than over the phone.”“Yes.”Everett had done so much for me; I truly needed to thank him properly in person.Seeing that I’d come to terms with it, Eleanor suggested, “After dinner, shall we head downtown to meet up with Uncle and the others?”I nodded. “Yes, it’s been a while since I’ve seen Louis. I miss him a bit.”“Yeah, ever since Louis and Harvey started the security company, they’ve been swamped! They hardly com
Regret After Divorce Chapter 158 Meily and Peter died
Eleanor’s POVI watched Scarlett’s retreating figure, sighed softly, then turned and walked out of the villa.Outside, Alicia stood under the eaves smoking a cigarette, her other hand holding a phone as she talked.I glanced at her before turning to find John first.After giving instructions to James, I turned back and walked toward Alicia.As I drew closer, I heard Alicia’s voice: “Contact Mr. Browne. He has always been in charge of his surgeries.”I frowned and halted.Alicia heard the movement behind her and turned, meeting my gaze.She paused slightly, then said to the person on the other end of the call, “I’ll hang up now.”I studied her, sensing she was hiding something. “Who was that?”“A friend,” she replied without flinching.I narrowed my eyes. “A woman’s intuition tells me that call was connected to tonight’s operation.”Alicia raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on her lips. “Is your intuition usually that accurate?”“Very accurate,” I said firmly.“It sure is.” Alici
