Semua Bab Ex-husband’s Regret: Bab 511 - Bab 520

Alana deliberately teased him, leaning in and raising her eyebrows, “So, don’t you want to get married?”“I have someone I want to marry and am not interested in arranged marriages.”Frank dismissed it lightly, glancing inside the room. “Is Charlotte here?”From his angle, he couldn’t see me behind the door.Seeing Alana’s triumphant smile, I couldn’t help but laugh lightly. Just as I was about to speak, Alana looked at me and said, “Niece, come here quickly. My brother is looking for you.”I could almost imagine the bewildered expression on Frank’s face.I walked over, and Frank took my cool, dry hand. He glanced at Alana and, with a playful smile, asked, “When did Charlotte become your niece?”Before I could speak, Yasmin put her arm around my shoulder and, noticing Alex and his wife teasing him, couldn’t help but laugh. “Because Charlotte is my daughter, what do you think?”“Huh?” Frank immediately straightened up. Before he could delve deeper or confirm the truth of the sta

Bethany smiled and pretended to stop her. “Forget it, Carrie, don’t underestimate her. She might end up with some rich husband and getting support from someone later.”“Bethany, you’re the daughter of the Shaw family! Are you really afraid of her? You said she’s an orphan. Even if she’s good at attracting rich men, who would actually marry her?”Carrie Harrison sneered. “Anyone invited by Ms. Jackson is from a family that values social standing. At most, they might play around with her. No one would turn against us for an obscure lover.”The young man who had previously approached me couldn’t stand it any longer and spoke up for me, “No, she was just introduced by Ms. Jackson…”“Enough,”People of this social tier generally looked down on ordinary celebrities. No matter how popular one was, it ultimately depended on capital.Bethany interrupted him. “I know you want to say she knows Ms. Jackson…”“What?” Carrie suddenly looked alarmed, “She knows Ms. Jackson? Why didn’t you say

The people present exchanged glances, with some having their mouths hanging open in shock.After all, Frank and Ryan were both significant figures. No one there was unafraid of them.Everyone tacitly understood that the Harrison family was finished!Carrie was stunned, glancing between Frank and Ryan, unable to utter a word of pleading. In the next moment, she suddenly looked at me with a pale face, panic-stricken, and said, “Ms… Ms. Wilson… I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have looked down on you or insulted you. Please, hit me if you want, just please!”She was nearly in tears, no longer concerned about the dignity of a young lady. “I really know I was wrong. I beg you, please let Mr. Smith and Mr. Frost spare my family… I came here hoping to collaborate with Ms. Jackson, but instead, I’ve brought trouble to my family. My father will kill me!”Yes, I knew she wasn’t exaggerating.In such families, children who enjoy wealth and power must also pay the corresponding price. If they not only

The girl next to her said, “What else could it be? It’s definitely Elena from the Charlotte Jewelry! I just didn’t expect that she would be such a young and beautiful woman!”“I didn’t see you speaking up for her earlier. Now you’re praising her.”“What could I have been able to do?”The girl next to her gave her a sidelong glance. “Did you forget what you and Carrie and Bethany said earlier? If I had helped her, you would have probably cursed me as well.”It was only natural to protect oneself.“No...”She didn’t argue, muttering, “Originally, my mom was trying to get another spot for a private commission with Elena, but now that I’ve messed things up… I’m afraid it’s impossible for the rest of our lives.”“Not necessarily.” Another girl spoke up, “She doesn’t seem like the type to hold grudges. She probably won’t hold it against someone like you who doesn’t have much sense.”The people around were also discussing among themselves.The dinner hadn’t ended yet, and I had alrea

Frank gave me a sidelong glance, not responding and maintaining his firm grip, not allowing me to withdraw. He took out his phone and made a call.In a short while, a waiter brought in iodine swabs and an ointment.Frank broke the swab, gently applied iodine to my wound, his long eyelashes casting shadows over his emotions. His voice, though somewhat muffled, was clear. “I can’t change how you lived before, but from now on, you need to take good care of yourself.”“Where you are careless, I will handle things for you.”I felt a shiver inside, my eyes welling up with tears. I pursed my lips, finding myself on the verge of crying.It turned out that people cried not only when they were sad.Before I could speak, the man’s large hand, which had always claimed to be incapable of handling delicate tasks like treating wounds, was now applying the ointment with skill. He was more meticulous than he ever was while signing billion-dollar contracts.The cool ointment spread through my lim
