Semua Bab Ex-husband’s Regret: Bab 501 - Bab 510

"Not at all."Yasmin smiled gently and took my hand. "I’m not here to discuss the dress either.""Then what is it?" asked Alana."Ask Charlotte." Yasmin glanced at the time, stood up, and explained to me, "Charlotte, I have a dinner appointment with the brand representatives. Do you want to come along?""I... I’ll pass."Originally, when she was connecting me with people, I always dealt with it in a way that considered social etiquette. Now suddenly, she became my... mother, and I was still trying to get used to it.She didn’t insist, but tentatively asked, "How about tomorrow’s celebration dinner? I’ll have Joanne come pick you up and take you to the Cloud. Is that okay?"Joanne was the person she trusted the most.With Joanne picking me up and taking me to the celebration dinner in the Cloud, it meant she wants to publicly acknowledge my background and was seeking my consent.I pursed my lips and nodded. "Okay."After seeing her to the elevator, as we were parting ways, I a

The producer shuddered and quickly replied a message on WhatsApp. “Joanne, I may not have expressed myself clearly earlier. What I meant was that we will ensure Miss Christine’s segments are edited beautifully, matching her online persona 100%.”“Did I not express myself clearly? Brian, what we mean is, edit it however it looks best! If the market response is good, Ms. Jackson will consider funding the next season. Do you understand?”The producer, being quite shrewd, finally understood. “Got it! I’ll do as you say!”It seemed that Christine had managed to offend her own mother!But he had some doubts in his mind. Would a biological mother really allow the show’s crew to expose her daughter’s negative material?How much conflict could there be?It seemed that the saying "blood is thicker than water" did not apply in the upper class.However, this was none of his concern. His job was to hold onto Yasmin’s coattails tightly!He could edit it however it looks best!He smiled, con

The next day, when I woke up, the alarm hadn't gone off yet.As soon as I stepped out of my room, the doorbell rang. It was Jane.I felt a bit helpless. “Don’t you have a fingerprint access? Why didn’t you just come in?”“Well, that’s because…”Jane cast an ambiguous glance toward the master bedroom and said, “I was afraid of disturbing you and your man.”“Disturb what? He’s not here,” I explained. Then I asked, “Why did you come so early?”Last night, Frank didn’t return to Region Gardens; he just sent me a WhatsApp message saying that there was an urgent matter with the Smith family that needed his immediate attention. He didn’t tell me any specifics.Jane then remembered the main issue and hurriedly asked, “Was the WhatsApp message you sent me real or not?”“I drank too much last night. When I groggily checked my phone this morning, it startled me awake!”“On my way here, I kept looking at that WhatsApp message, afraid I was dreaming or seeing things.”“Is Christine really

“Let me check.”He seemed to be looking at WhatsApp while explaining to me. “I was in a long meeting, and my phone was with Alan. He only brought it into the meeting room when he saw your call.”“Fortune and misfortune are intertwined. Don’t be afraid.”Although he was trying to comfort me, I was still worried. “This is targeted at you, right? Did Lucas do this?”“You’re right about the first part.”Frank took a sip of something, and his voice regained some clarity. “But Lucas isn’t stupid enough to do this. He would only engage in actions that harm others without benefiting himself, not something that would damage the enemy while hurting himself.”Frank’s explanation made sense. The chip had been on the market before he returned to the Smith Group, and before that, Lucas had been in charge. Ultimately, this issue falls under Lucas’s responsibility.If Lucas exposed this now, it would certainly create a huge mess for Frank, but it would also eliminate any possibility of Frank ma

After finishing the snack, I still had some time left. Seeing that Yasmin seemed hesitant to speak, I couldn't help but smile."Is there something you want to say or ask me?"In terms of being a daughter and a mother, both Yasmin and I are probably novices. It’s inevitable that there’s some awkwardness and unfamiliarity, but I can genuinely feel her desire to give me the best.Yasmin’s eyes were full of affection as she spoke softly, “It’s nothing major. I was just thinking that since you’ll be moving in eventually, how about you choose your room now while there’s still time? This way, I can prepare your bedroom according to your preferences.”A wave of emotion I had never felt before surged within me. Smiling, I said, “No need to choose. I trust you.”“Really?” Yasmin seemed worried that I was being polite. “Don’t be too formal with me. You’re my only daughter…”“It’s not about being formal!” I interrupted with a sigh, taking her hand gently and speaking softly, “I just know tha
