All Chapters of A Regret too Late: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

For some reason, seeing how indifferent the boy was made Richard feel a little uncomfortable. Maybe Maria had a point about being so distant from Jonathan.Jonathan had already found out about Richard and Eleanor's marriage, even though Richard never told him directly. Yet, the boy never came to Richard and asked why. He never asked what would happen to Maria. He showed no reaction at all, even now, when Eleanor said she didn't want a divorce.Before Richard realized it, his expression had darkened.Seeing Richard's expression, Eleanor paused and hesitated. "What's wrong, Richard? If it's not convenient, I can just rent another place for now. There's no need for me to insist on having my own home." She lowered her head, her eyes suddenly reddening as she grabbed a tissue to wipe her eyes. "If I had known, I never should have sold my house to pay for treatment before I left. Not having a place of my own here makes me feel like I'm still drifting, with nowhere to call home."Richar

After everything was settled, Maria stood up and said goodbye to Zack. The two of them walked out of the cafe together.Zack let out a long breath, relieved. "I'm really glad you get to retaliate before you leave. Don't worry. This time, we'll make sure Eleanor Cooper's reputation is completely ruined."But Maria shook her head. "Eleanor was never the one I wanted revenge on. It takes two to tango. I was abandoned and betrayed by Richard and Jonathan, and that's not her fault. Exposing her as a fake is just to do right by my favorite artist."Zack nodded. "Yeah, either way, she can't keep living off Robin Bell's name and using it to boost her reputation."Maria gave him a gentle smile and didn't say anything else. She simply hailed a cab and went home. When she arrived, she saw Richard's car already parked out front.Back already? That was quick.Maria walked inside and immediately spotted Jonathan sitting in the living room. Richard wasn't home. She looked around in confusion.

"What do you mean, Mari?" Richard's heart skipped a beat, anxiety flickering in his eyes. Did Maria already know that their marriage was fake?Maria caught every change in his expression. She rubbed her brow, annoyed. "It's nothing. All I know is that, as my husband, you shouldn't be doubting me like this."Richard couldn't say anything. He thought of how Maria had been kept in the dark for seven years, how he couldn't find Eleanor for years, and how he still hadn't divorced Eleanor. Guilt washed over him.His tone softened as he gently took Maria's hand. "I'm sorry. It's all my fault."Maria paused, lowering her eyes to look at him."It really is my fault," Richard said, gripping her hand a little tighter. "I promise I won't doubt you again, but can you not meet with Zack from now on? Please, do it for me."He looked up at Maria with sincere eyes. "For our relationship."Our relationship…Those words felt so ironic to Maria.She pulled her hand away and turned to the mirr

Richard ignored Jonathan. He looked at Eleanor, his tone gentle. "Don't get the wrong idea. I just think it's not good for Jonathan to depend on you too much. If he keeps following you around, calling you 'Mom' every day, people will start to talk."Eleanor lowered her head, tears rolling down her cheeks. Richard's polite words sounded like he was comforting her, but deep down, she knew he was just worried about Maria being talked about.She just couldn't understand it. Maria had been cold to everyone lately and wasn't even happy with Jonathan anymore. Why was Richard still trying to please her?The more Eleanor thought about it, the worse she felt. She clenched her teeth and looked up at Richard. Something strange flashed in her eyes. "Fine. Since you've decided, I'll see Jonny less and let him spend more time with Maria."Jonathan immediately burst into tears, refusing to give in. "No! I don't want to be with her! She's mean to me all the time and won't let me call her mom!"

After Richard left, it wasn't long before a crowd of reporters gathered outside the neighborhood. They couldn't get inside, so they camped out by the front gate, desperate for a scoop.A maid hurried in. "Madam, Master Richard just called. He said you must stay home no matter what. Don't go out no matter what!"Maria scrolled through the expose online and nodded with barely any interest. She even zoomed in on the leaked marriage certificate photo. In the lower left corner, there was a patch of pink wool fabric.At first glance, it looked quite ordinary, but Maria remembered that Eleanor had a pink wool sweater just like it. She had even worn it to visit Jonathan before.So, Eleanor had leaked it herself.Maria's lips curled in a sneer. Did Eleanor really think this would hurt her? Or did Eleanor think she would be so rattled, she would go running to question Richard? Maria showed no emotion as she swiped past the images, as if they barely entered her eyes.Eleanor still had the
