Semua Bab Ex-husband’s Regret: Bab 191 - Bab 200

His eyes turned cold instantly, his voice lowering as he warned, "Charlotte, I've noticed you're getting bolder. We're not divorced yet.""I know." I raised my head. "People come and go. What can he and I possibly do?""Come home with me!"He remained as domineering as ever, grabbing my hand and preparing to leave.I tried to shake him off, but then he said, "He and Bethany were summoned by Mrs. Renolds. Do you want to freeze out here?"His implication was that Jack might not show up for a while.I gave up struggling. After all, I also had something to discuss with Ryan tonight. "Let go, I can walk on my own."He acted as if he hadn't heard me.And so, I was dragged all the way to the car by him.Feeling somewhat annoyed, I sent a quick WhatsApp message to Jack , letting him know I was leaving early. Rather than waiting until I got home, I started playing the video and handed my phone over to Ryan.Ambiguous and provocative sounds immediately filled the car!The driver, prob

"Sure." I nodded with delight, casting a skeptical glance at her. "Is it because... Tom won't leave you alone?""Yeah!" She hiccupped after drinking the water, her gaze slightly unfocused but her thoughts clear. "He said he doesn't want to split up with me and is willing to give up his engagement for me."I was somewhat surprised. "Is that true?""You silly thing!" Jane poked my head with her finely manicured fingers, completely sober. "Whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter. Even if he's willing, will his family agree? The Hilton family might not be as affluent as the Frost family, but no matter what, it's not my place to marry into such a family.""Love, no matter how intense, can it withstand his family's strong opposition? Even if I marry into the Hilton family, will I really live a happy life? Only a fool would fall for it!"After hearing her out, I pinched her cheek. "After drinking so much, you're still so clear-headed?"She smiled at me. It was a bitter smile. "It's

I was confused and retorted, "What do you mean don’t I know?"His eyes were sharp. "Stop pretending."I stared at him blankly, anger rising from within. "Are you crazy? I didn't do anything, what am I pretending?""You just won’t admit it." Ryan's lips curved into a sneer, and he became even more fierce. He picked up his phone and tapped it twice before turning it towards me. "Take a look. Is this your handiwork?"I was momentarily stunned, then looked at his phone screen. It displayed a hot search that had just exploded two minutes ago. Upon seeing the contents clearly, I was struck as if by lightning!It was a freshly exposed scandal involving a prominent family, and the protagonists were my father-in-law, John, and Jessica.There was even a video.The cover of the video was a scene from the backyard of the Renolds family last night...I could almost recognize it at a glance. I shivered all over, reached out to tap on it to confirm if it was the one I had filmed, but the vi

"Okay." I nodded thoughtfully, smiling as I asked a cruel question, "What if she tries to take something from you?"This question caught Lauren off guard, but Jessica was nervous as a thief.Her face turned pale, trying to cover her panic, and she snapped, "Charlotte, what are you doing? Now you not only want to snatch Ryan away, but also want to drive a wedge between me and my mom?""Mom, let's go!" said Jessica, grabbing Lauren and trying to leave, afraid that I might say something I shouldn’t.Lauren refused to move, shielding Jessica behind her and standing tall, her eyes full of disdain and scorn."Jessica is right. Don't try to break up our mother-daughter relationship. I know you grew up without parents. Although John and I are remarried, he loves Jessica just as much as I do. Jessica has always had a harmonious and loving family since she was a child. Ultimately, as an orphan like you, you must envy Jessica, right?""Yeah, you're right." I nodded without denying it and sa

Lauren was pushed unexpectedly and fell flat on her back on the floor, grimacing in pain, unable to believe it as she looked at Jessica. "Jessica... you pushed me? From childhood until now, I provided you with the best things possible. Is this how you treat me?""If you had really been good to me, you wouldn't treat me like this now!" Jessica's face was full of resentment. She squatted down, grabbed Lauren's hair, and demanded with each word, "You taught me to seize whatever I wanted by my own abilities. Aren't these your teachings? Why do you blame me for doing so? Mom... haven't I been following your words?""No..." Lauren was somewhat bewildered, filled with both hatred and regret. "I never taught you this... never, never! I didn't... it's not like that... it's not!" The more she spoke, the more frenzied she became. Suddenly, she got up, speaking vehemently, her eyes unfocused, and ran outside.Jessica looked in the direction where Lauren had left, suddenly bursting into tears. S
