Regret After Divorce의 모든 챕터: 챕터 221 - 챕터 230

Scarlett’s POVI jolted awake.The dream had felt far too real — especially the baby’s final accusation at Everett. It stung with a strange, painful clarity.Outside, the sky had already brightened. I glanced at the clock — it was nine in the morning.I rolled over, propped myself up on my elbows, and slowly sat up in bed. Nothing else bothered me, but the dream in which Everett and I interacted like a married couple… those scenes had been so warm and tender. Even now, after waking, that sweet, cozy feeling lingered in my chest, refusing to fade.I raised a hand to my face — it felt slightly warm.People say that what you think about during the day appears in your dreams at night.Could this really reflect my innermost thoughts?The more I thought about it, the more ashamed I felt.How could I dream of something like that?My phone on the nightstand began to ring. Snapping back

Scarlett’s POV:After hanging up, I opened Twitter and found Everett’s account.His personal page was sparse, with only a brief bio: CEO of WS Group.There were only three posts. Aside from the one he posted at the airport a month ago when he left America, the other two were both from the time he helped me with the Twitter incident.I stared at those three posts for a long time. Finally, I logged out and let out a soft sigh.My gaze dropped to my belly.The baby wouldn’t arrive for another five months or so, and after giving birth, I’d need at least a month to rest. That made it nearly half a year.Actually, if I wanted to participate, there was still time.But…I hesitated, then pulled out my phone and sent Everett a message.(Are you busy?)Everett replied almost instantly.BFHBGM: (At a dinner meeting. Just woke up?)I looked at the reply, feeling both amused

Scarlett’s POV:Michael didn’t reply immediately.I set my phone aside and examined the Pikachu plushie closely.Just then, I noticed a button on Pikachu’s chest.I pressed it.“Hello there, I am Pikachu! Starting today, I can keep you company, Master! You can give me a lovely name! Say my new name three times, and the system will automatically record it! From now on, just say ‘Hello (new name)’ to wake me up!”“I also have many voice functions. My owner can give me commands using voice control. For example, saying ‘Pikachu, play prenatal music,’ will make me respond, ‘Sure thing, playing prenatal music for you now…’”“….”This was actually a multifunctional doll!“Haha, so adorable! No wonder it’s from CEO Everett Robinson! Even when gifting a doll, he doesn’t forget prenatal education for the baby.”“I’m surprised too!” Listening to this chatterbox Pikachu, I found it hard to believe this was a gift from the notoriously clueless Everett!I felt both amused and exasperated. “If this

Scarlett’s POV:The two of us took numerous photos in front of the Christmas tree.I rarely took photos, so my expressions and poses felt stiff at first, but with Eleanor’s quirky guidance, I soon loosened up.We playfully fought and pinched each other’s cheeks while Nancy’s shutter clicked away, capturing countless candid, natural, and stunning moments.After the photo shoot, Lily hurried me inside. After all, I couldn’t risk catching a cold with my big belly.Eleanor linked arms with me as we entered.We changed our shoes and sat down on the living room sofa.Lily brought in hot drinks and snacks. “Miss Scarlett, Miss Eleanor, please have something warm to drink and warm yourselves up.”“Thank you, Lily!” Eleanor picked up her drink and handed one to me.As soon as I stepped inside and felt the warmth of the heater, my eyelids began to droop.Rubbing my eyes

Scarlett’s POV:How did Everett end up here?Didn’t he say he was swamped with work?My heart pounded wildly.I never dreamed Everett would show up… and dressed as Santa Claus, no less.Was he trying to surprise me?Should I play along?I blinked, steadying my nerves. Seeing Everett in that costume stirred a wave of emotion within me.Once upon a time, I never would’ve imagined Everett doing something this crazy for me.Could this notoriously clueless man actually come up with something this romantic?I couldn’t help but doubt it.But regardless, he was here now—and I wanted to see what else he had planned.“Did you come to give me a gift?”Everett nodded silently and set the red sack from his shoulder onto the table.I watched as he untied the bag.He pulled out several gift boxes and placed them on the table.“What a
