All Chapters of Who's the One Regretting Now?: Chapter 681 - Chapter 690

Sean turned and walked away, lost in thought.He wondered why everyone thought that he liked Macie. It started with Xavier, then Alice, and even Edward dropped hints. And now Elias?All he'd done was offer a little help here and there. He thought that it was hardly enough to be misunderstood. It wasn't even anything significant; it was just small favors.Back at his desk, Sean glanced at his phone. He'd originally intended to text Macie and tell her that Elias had agreed to give a formal assurance.But then he remembered what Elias had said earlier, and deleted the message. Instead, he sent it to Alice. Either way, the message would ultimately reach Macie. It was a different route, but the message would ultimately find its way to Macie.At that moment, in a private hospital, Yosef was ready to be discharged. But instead of returning to the Fowler residence, he contacted Elias' parents, Edmund and Mira, and asked them to discipline and restrain Sharon.However, he was surprised to

"Take it," Elias said as he pushed the card back toward Sharon. "This afternoon, have someone take you shopping. Get some fresh air. Don't stay cooped up in your room all day."Sharon hesitated for several seconds before finally picking it up slowly. "Thank you, Elias. Thank you, Dad and Mom," she said.Elias saw that Sharon had finally stopped crying completely, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. They continued eating their meal.Sharon, having accepted the card, felt a rush of joy. She hadn't expected such a surprise that day. With their familial bond and the added sympathy of being lost for 20 years, she knew that the Hale family would never abandon her. As long as her identity stayed hidden, the Hales would cover for her even if she killed someone.This meant that she had to get rid of Macie quickly, thoroughly, and permanently.But now that the Fowler family had stepped in, making another move would be much harder. Sharon ruefully wished that Rico had succeeded last time

"Don't look at me like that. I even asked Sean what would happen if my law firm got targeted by the Hale family because of this. He said that if I got dragged into it for helping you, he'd also protect me out of gratitude for taking your case," Xavier said. That part, at least, was true.Macie looked at him, feeling a little skeptical. She had hesitated earlier, primarily because of Alice. She knew that Alice would stand by her no matter what. Perhaps Sean did say something along those lines, but not exactly as Xavier made it sound.She doubted that Sean did it purely for her.At the very least, he did it for Alice's sake, and Alice did it for her. One link led to the next, forming an unbreakable chain. Without Alice in the middle, none of this would've happened.Xavier realized that his strategy wasn't resonating with Macie, so he adjusted his approach. "I think it looks good on my end. Let me check with Sean and see what he says."Macie gave him a slightly puzzled look, not unde

"Alright. I'll stay at your place for now," Alice said. "Sharon hasn't left the country yet, right? What if that crazy woman tries to get back at you while she's still here? I'll handle your rides to and from work.""There's no need to go out of your way. The Hale family still has people in the country, like Sharon's brother, Elias. We just signed the agreement today, so they'll definitely have someone watching her," Macie replied. "Really, I'm fine now. Thanks for worrying, but there's no need for any special attention." She gave a small smile.Alice had no choice but to drop it. She left the hospital room shortly after, walking out with Xavier.Inside the elevator, Xavier remarked, "You and Macie seem really close.""She's the only friend I have whose relationship with me has nothing to do with gain. Being around her is easy and natural," Alice replied.Xavier thought about that and said, "That's because there's a difference in your social standing. There's no exchange of mutual

"No, that's not it," Nathan said. "There are plenty of officers on the case. Mr. Fowler Senior even sent private personnel, but they still haven't found anything."Surveillance around Rico's hometown is being monitored 24/7, but no one's seen him."It was as if the man had vanished into thin air.Rico wasn't in his hometown, and there were no signs of him nearby. They couldn't find any records of him at hotels or on public transit either. The police had already blocked major highways right after the incident. If he had fled by car overnight, road surveillance should've picked him up, too.Yet, there was no sign of anything. None whatsoever."He's very good at hiding. The police even searched basements and brought in K9 units," Nathan added. "They've expanded the search to neighboring cities. If he's no longer in Williamford, it's likely that he escaped right away."And the only escape route that would avoid all surveillance and witnesses is the riverside channel nearby."That wa
