บททั้งหมดของ Ex-husband’s Regret: บทที่ 261 - บทที่ 270

Jane was rarely so serious, and I felt an indescribable unease rising within me.It was as if something was about to be destroyed.I stared at Jane, biting my lip, "I'm prepared. Go ahead and tell me.""Actually..." Jane struggled to speak. She bit her lip before finally saying, "The person who took you to the school infirmary and the one who brought you food in college wasn't Ryan!"‘Wasn’t Ryan?’ My mind buzzed, and I felt a fleeting blankness, stunned.It took me a while to come to my senses, a heavy weight pressing on my chest, making my voice tremble. "Really?"Deep down, I knew Jane was telling me the truth.Jane knew how important this was to me. If she wasn't completely certain, she wouldn't have told me like this.But...What did all the affection I had for these years mean?Jane nodded. "Yes.""Then... the person who really helped me..." I took a deep breath, trying to stay calm as I spoke, "Was Jack, right?"Jane was stunned. "How did you know?""No wonder..."

The air seemed to have thickened.Jack reached out and gently rubbed my head, his voice calm and steady."The person I wanted to invite to the concert that time was you...""And the person I was waiting to be divorced was also you.""The person I've liked for 20 years is you."His voice was composed and firm, carrying an unwavering resolve. His dark eyes sparkled with intensity. "Charlotte, it's always been you, and no one else."My heart felt as if it were being tugged forcefully.Then it became anxious, feeling lost and unsure.It turned out that when someone truly cared for and loved me, my first reaction was to feel unworthy.I was overwhelmed with mixed emotions and instinctively wanted to deny it. "How could it be me? Haven't you known each other for so many years? And you and I...""Do you remember I told you I returned to the Renolds family only after I was eight?"Jack explained slowly, lifting his luminous wrist to show me the red string, "Before I was brought back

At that moment I stood outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, I felt an unprecedented sense of relief.Jane had initially wanted to stay with me, but I asked her to leave first.Back then, I chose to start alone, and now, it was time to say goodbye on my own.I watched the traffic in front of me, seeing couples coming and going, either getting married or divorced.It was easy to judge.Smiling faces are getting married; expressionless or resentful faces are getting divorced.Broken relationships are always hard to handle gracefully.Fortunately, there was no such issue between Ryan and me.He had no feelings for me, and my eight years of love for him were a series of misunderstandings.But I didn't expect that Ryan wouldn't come alone.He got out of a shiny black Maybach, followed by Bethany.The man's expression was as cold and indifferent as usual, as if he was oblivious to anything being amiss. He stuffed his hands into his pockets and said, "Let's go in."His tone was so cas

Jane and I pondered the situation but couldn't figure out who would be doing such a kind deed."Never mind, let's not dwell on it. It's good news to get orders when we're starting a business," Jane said optimistically, stretching her back. "Someone's coming for an interview soon. Are you ready to join me?""Sure," I agreed.With so much to do for the new company's opening and only Jane and I working around the clock, we couldn't possibly finish everything.Hiring new staff was an urgent task.During interviews, Jane asked the questions while I simply observed and would discuss the decisions with her later.The first few candidates seemed okay, but I couldn't pinpoint what was good about them.Then, a young woman walked in, slightly bowing to us and sitting down politely. "Hello, I'm Megan Smith..."Her innocent appearance seemed somewhat familiar.As she spoke, she would occasionally glance at me, her eyes bright and moist.Jane found it amusing and asked, "Do you know Ms. Wi

When Mrs. Shaw appeared in the office, her chest was visibly heaving, indicating she was quite agitated. It was clear to anyone that she cared deeply for her daughter, Bethany. The concern she showed was akin to that of protecting a precious gem.Seeing that she has someone to back her up, Bethany pouted and looked like she wanted to cry, "Mom, I just wanted to help her with her business after her recent divorce, and she and her friend actually called me a dog!"Mrs. Shaw furrowed her brows and glared at me with anger. "Charlotte, don't be so ungrateful! Apologize to my daughter!""Like mother, like daughter."Jane couldn't stand it anymore. "What do you mean by ungrateful? Who's begging your daughter to take care of our business? I already said we wouldn't take her order, but she insisted on making a scene!""Who do you think you are? Do you think you’re worthy of talking to me?"Mrs. Shaw disdainfully dismissed Jane's words and turned her threatening gaze back to me, "Charlotte
