All Chapters of HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back): Chapter 861 - Chapter 870

"Yes," Chris replied with a nod. He briefly glanced at the watch around his wrist. "We should head home.""Ah, yes. You're right." Naomi agreed. She had no desire to listen to a lengthy lecture from Cale if they returned late. Cale was a punctual person, and when it came to him, one needed a very go

That explanation sounded perfectly reasonable to Lydia. However, an hour later, the last traces of her smile faded as well.Daniel entered the room again, and this time the lines on his face were far more serious than before. "I still can't find them, sir."Cale's brow immediately furrowed deeply. "

Naomi sat rigidly on the edge of her bed, her hands clasped tightly together in her lap. Her gaze remained fixed on the floor, not daring to look around.Ever since Lydia had pulled her away from the hallway outside the study and brought her into the bedroom, neither of them had spoken a single word. The silence that settled between them only made Naomi more uneasy, especially because she knew Cale was venting his anger at Chris out there.Meanwhile, Lydia pulled one of the wooden chairs from beside the vanity table. She placed it directly in front of Naomi, closing the distance between them. Lydia sat down calmly, folded her hands in her lap, and looked steadily at the girl before her.For quite some time, the woman remained silent, simply observing Naomi's tense expression. That gentle gaze only made it harder for Naomi to lift her head. Deep down, she felt she would have been more prepared if Lydia had simply scolded her.But because the woman remained calm and silent, the guilt th

Taking occasional sips of her warm milk, Naomi began to tell her everything, her voice filled with enthusiasm."The first campus had a very modern design," Naomi said, her hands moving as she described the glass architecture she had seen that morning. "But Chris said I shouldn't be impressed by the facilities alone. He showed me the list of distinguished alumni and said that connections matter far more in the real world."Lydia listened with a faint smile that gradually grew wider, nodding from time to time in understanding."Then at the second campus, we ended up arguing because I said I wanted to major in Economics," Naomi continued as she nibbled on a biscuit.Her expression turned into a slightly pouty yet amused one. "Chris immediately cut me off and said my stubborn personality was better suited for Strategic Management. He was so annoying, but after thinking about it the whole way back... all of his analysis about me was actually true."Naomi continued talking, telling Lydia ho

Lydia pouted softly, though she couldn't hide her laughter. She smoothed her slightly tousled hair before adjusting her position to make herself more comfortable.Meanwhile, Cale gently stroked the ends of Lydia's hair as it draped over her shoulder. His fingers moved slowly, almost unconsciously, as though the touch had long since become a habit that always calmed his mind after an exhausting day."I like this peace and quiet."Lydia looked at him in confusion."Because once everyone else is asleep..." Cale's gaze slowly dropped to his wife's lips before meeting her eyes again. "...I finally get to have my wife all to myself."Lydia caught her breath for a moment. "Cale." Her voice was little more than a whisper.But Cale didn't answer. He merely smiled faintly before rising to his feet, still holding Lydia securely in his arms.Reflexively, Lydia's arms slipped back around her husband's neck. "Where are you going?"Cale glanced briefly at the stack of files on his desk. "To our room
