Semua Bab Ex-husband’s Regret: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Perhaps the person I was waiting for would never come.The girl was clever, smiling brightly as she asked, "Are you waiting for someone, Miss?""Yes.""Your friend must be stuck in traffic, it's really jammed around the stadium right now."Maybe sensing my disappointment, she walked over with a comforting smile, tilting her head slightly. "I'll wait with you.""Aren't you going in?""I didn't get a ticket."She shrugged, her mouth turning down in disappointment and helplessness.I chuckled lightly. "Then stay with me."He wasn't going to come. I wasn't waiting for him to come.I was waiting for me to be totally disappointed.Another whole hour passed, until the crowd in the square thinned out and people gradually dispersed. My hand holding the phone was almost numb from the cold.The announcement came over the broadcast that entry was about to close."Charlotte."A warm voice suddenly sounded from behind.I turned around in pleasant surprise, seeing Jack in the same brow

"What do you mean by that?"I was like a typical gossip girl who tried to get to the bottom of things. But then I felt that asking further would be impolite, so I could only leave it at that.The songs performed at today's concert were all on my favorite playlist. Even after the whole show, I still felt unsatisfied.As the singer left the stage, I had a surreal feeling of awakening from a big dream. I sat dumbfounded in my chair, watching the slowly departing crowd after the noise.The emptiness in my heart was terrifying. Until now, the phone I had been clutching in my hand still hadn't received any messages or calls from Ryan.During my absent-minded lapse, Jack was very respectful and didn't rush me at all. He just quietly waited by my side. It was only when I came to my senses that we followed the crowd and left together.Despite the security guards maintaining order and the crowded pushing, I was walking fine when suddenly a force pushed me from behind. I stumbled and almost

Ryan squinted his eyes slightly, casually looking at me, lips curved. "Wanna try?"It was the same smile as usual, but I felt a chill run down my spine.It seemed like if I dared, he would snap my neck the next second."Let's give it a try."I followed the principle of not backing down.His face turned cold as frost, a sneer forming, ready to explode, when suddenly, his phone rang loudly.Jessica’s name immediately flashed through my mind.I couldn't help but marvel at how accurate a woman's sixth sense could be.It really was Jessica.Ryan furrowed his brows. He didn't pick up, and the ringtone continued to sound.If he wanted to decline the call, he had a hundred ways to do so.So obviously, he didn't want to."Ryan, where have you been? Why haven't you come back yet? The baby in my womb wants strawberry cake. Hurry up and get it for me!"The car's cramped space completely isolated us from the outside noise, and Jessica's gentle and charming voice rang clearly in my ears

I couldn't help but laugh.Ryan was going to take responsibility for her.What did she want from me?She should be going to Ryan.Jessica touched her belly. "You need to finalize your divorce quickly, or it'll delay getting my child registered.""Then you should go tell Ryan to hurry up."The company's headquarters had constant temperature-controlled air conditioning throughout the year. I took off my coat, hung it up, and picked up a spray bottle to water the row of plants in front of the French windows.Since Ryan refused to draw clear boundaries, I wasn't in a hurry either.I could just let Jessica make a fuss.Jessica sneered coldly. "Don't play this game of pretending to be indifferent while clinging to Ryan. I can actually understand you. Being an orphan, with no parents, grabbing onto the Frost family tree that ensures your comfort, you don't want to let go. It's human nature. But Charlotte, as a woman, you know when to feel shameful."She crossed her arms whilst laugh

When we returned home after finishing the IV, it was already dark outside. Worried that she wouldn't take care of herself for the next couple of days, I decided to stay at her place.The next day, during breakfast, Jane glanced at me several times furtively. I chuckled. "What's up?""Well, it's just... it's just..." Jane hesitated, then brought herself together. "The night Ryan took the aphrodisiac, your phone suddenly died. I didn't get a chance to ask you about it later."I didn't understand. "Ask me about what?"She smiled and leaned in, asking, "Did you guys do it? With that drug, is it really long-lasting and powerful?"I was having cereals and choked instantly. Although I already knew she had an outspoken personality, she still caught me off guard.I coughed several times, pretending to be calm. "No, we didn't do anything."She handed me a few pieces of tissues, looking skeptical. "Really?""Of course not. I'm still in the first three months of pregnancy. How could we?"
