Semua Bab Who's the One Regretting Now?: Bab 411 - Bab 420

After stepping out of the police station, Nathan wondered who Davidson was. What kind of email could be so important that Edward was practically desperate to see it? Nathan found Edward's behavior odd, too, and the latter wouldn't tell him anything.Back in the detention center, Edward set the phone down and slowly turned around. His body was stiff like a dead tree as he dragged his feet step by step toward the door.His email password hadn't changed in years. It was the one he used for everything—email, encrypted documents, and apps. The password was created using the initials of Sharon's name and her birthday.He'd been using it since university, and it was so familiar that he rarely thought about it. However, when he said it out loud earlier, something clicked in his mind.He wasn't reminiscing—Sharon only stirred up disgust and hatred in him at that point. He was just reminded that he'd used the same password for his computer's lock screen.Initially, he thought Macie might ha

Nathan casually agreed to Macie's offer, though he wasn't helping her out of gratitude for dinner. It was just plain sympathy, nothing more.Right before the call ended, he added, "As for the second court hearing, the lawyers are working on it, but Mr. Fowler never officially handed the case over to me. I don't even know the full details yet. By the time he's out, the appeal deadline might have already passed."And once he hears the truth about the gas leak… I doubt he'll even bother to appeal."If Edward still wasn't satisfied with the initial ruling after everything, then honestly, Nathan had no words left."I'm still getting things ready on my end," Macie said coolly. "Just in case he decides to send someone else in his place."Nathan stepped out of the car, paid the driver, and hung up.…Outside Brightech Studios, in the corridor just past the elevators, Macie lowered her phone and stared blankly out the window. She barely took in the city view. A few seconds later, she loo

Edward overlooked the fact that Macie's foot had already been injured and ended up pushing her to the ground, which resulted in a fractured tailbone.The plate slipped because Sharon had let it drop on purpose. Macie hadn't even aimed the knife at her, but from a misleading angle, he jumped to conclusions without hesitation.An aggravated foot injury, a baseless accusation, and a fractured tailbone…Edward suddenly realized why Macie was in the bathroom, silently letting the water run over her foot. It was no wonder that someone as mild-tempered as Macie had finally snapped at him.At that moment, she'd still been holding back. Anyone else in her shoes might've tried to kill someone.His eyes burned, then blurred as the tears welled up and slipped down his cheeks.A sharp, twisting pain gripped Edward's chest. He was overwhelmed with regret and self-hatred.He'd gone to great lengths to blame everything on Sharon, convincing himself he was just a misled bystander, kept in the da

At this point, Yosef finally saw the whole picture.So it had all started with Sharon stirring the pot and twisting things from behind the scenes. Edward had completely misunderstood and wronged Macie. Moreover, the damage he'd done to her wasn't just emotional. It had nearly cost her her life.No wonder things never added up.Yosef had always wondered how Edward could go from cold-blooded indifference during the divorce to suddenly acting like he couldn't live without her if he truly loathed her that much.It wasn't true hatred, just harm born from a misunderstanding. If Sharon had never come into the picture, Edward and Macie might have already been together.Now that Edward knew the truth, he realized he'd completely misjudged her. And worse, he'd hurt Macie deeply because of it. "I'm sorry," Nathan apologized again. "I should've considered Mr. Fowler's condition before showing him the footage like that.""This isn't on you," Yosef said expressionlessly."You were just foll

The truth about Edward's situation was something outsiders could never fully uncover.Nathan had been making daily trips to the detention center, and that day was no exception. This time, though, he'd also gone to the hospital. Even Yosef had shown up.It all pointed to one undeniable fact. Edward hadn't been missing work because of a stomach issue. He had been detained.Edward's stomach condition might be real, but it could just as easily be something else entirely.Whatever it was, the fact that he collapsed in a detention center and had to be rushed to the hospital meant that this wasn't some minor inconvenience.Adrian figured that there might actually be something worth watching here.Back at his desk, Adrian typed a message to one of his contacts. He instructed them to keep watch outside. Once Yosef and his people left, they were to find out which room Edward was in.After sending the message, he exited the chat window on his phone and opened his laptop. He stared at the s
