All Chapters of Regret After Divorce: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Scarlett’s POV:Downstairs, Uncle Donald and Eleanor were preparing breakfast in the kitchen.Alicia was doing aerobic exercise with Mona in the courtyard.I stood at the doorway watching them.Alicia, who practiced dance year-around, possessed a perfectly proportioned physique… a powerful kind of beauty with well-defined, balanced lines.Mona, who had practiced yoga for years, maintained excellent form. Though in her forties, her age showed not at all.I watched them, occasionally yawning.Alicia paused and walked over to me, “Didn’t sleep well last night?”I looked at her and nodded.“Want to talk about it?”I thought for a moment before saying, “I dream about Everett!”“Oh?” she raised an eyebrow, “What did you dream about him?”“My memories weren’t complete before, but last night I dreamed all night long an

Scarlett’s POVI understood the logic and said, “All we can do now is wait for news.”“Is your head hurting? Let Mona give you a massage.”“Sure.”Breakfast was ready. Eleanor emerged from the kitchen, beaming. “Scarlett, you’re up so early today! Uncle Donald and I made breakfast together. He really lives up to being a five-star chef—the plating is absolutely stunning! I even convinced him to take me on as his final apprentice!”Eleanor’s cheerful voice echoed through the villa, slightly easing the heavy atmosphere. I took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying to appear more relaxed. I wasn’t a pessimist. Since things had come to this, I could only focus on the positive. Maintaining a hopeful mindset while waiting was, in a way, cheering them on.After breakfast, I took a stroll in the garden to aid digestion. During my walk, I called my father.*****

Miley’s POVNight fell.Fluorescent lights flickered on inside the concrete building. Outside, the aged streetlamps glowed intermittently as moths circled in the darkness.Across the river, scattered lights began to spark to life.Black eagles lurked deep within the forest, their occasional soft coos breaking the stillness.I wore black athletic gear, a baseball cap shadowing my petite face, and sneakers for easy movement.Everett emerged from the house, clad in a black bulletproof vest and work pants, a pistol tucked at his waist. His military boots struck the concrete floor with steady, deliberate steps.“Put this on,” he said, handing me another bulletproof vest.I looked at the vest, hesitating for a moment before meeting his eyes.Everett’s handsome face remained expressionless. “Just in case.”I took the vest. “Thanks.”“We’re in this togethe

Eleanor’s POVI watched Scarlett’s retreating figure, sighed softly, then turned and walked out of the villa.Outside, Alicia stood under the eaves smoking a cigarette, her other hand holding a phone as she talked.I glanced at her before turning to find John first.After giving instructions to James, I turned back and walked toward Alicia.As I drew closer, I heard Alicia’s voice: “Contact Mr. Browne. He has always been in charge of his surgeries.”I frowned and halted.Alicia heard the movement behind her and turned, meeting my gaze.She paused slightly, then said to the person on the other end of the call, “I’ll hang up now.”I studied her, sensing she was hiding something. “Who was that?”“A friend,” she replied without flinching.I narrowed my eyes. “A woman’s intuition tells me that call was connected to tonight’s operation.”Alicia raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on her lips. “Is your intuition usually that accurate?”“Very accurate,” I said firmly.“It sure is.” Alici

Scarlett’s POV:Hearing this, I fell silent. Eleanor studied my expression, then looked at Mom and Dad before saying,“It’s not that I don’t believe Miley. I just think it’s hard for someone’s ideology to change that easily. Mainly, her actions this time are too different from everything she’s done over the past decade.”“Ellie is right. It feels too strange to me too,” James added, scratching his forehead. “Even villains in dramas need a process to redeem themselves. This… it’s just too sudden.”Hearing this, Harvey, who had remained silent earlier, still said nothing.Mom looked at Dad. Dad nodded.“I understand your concerns, but Louis and Everett were both present. They examined the scene… under those circumstances, it was impossible for anyone to survive and escape.”“Discussing this now won’t get us anywhere. Let’s wait for the autopsy report.”“Scarlett is right,” Mom said with a smile. “But regardless, this operation was a success. From now on, our Scarlett will be free.” She
