All Chapters of The Goodbye he regretted : Chapter 231 - Chapter 240

“Hello, Uncle Richard.” Charles approached with grace and politely bowed toward Richard. Although Charles and Christopher were half-siblings, their physical traits diverged noticeably. Christopher, Lance’s fourth son, boasted a delicate and androgynous appearance, rendering gender identification challenging. Conversely, Lance’s second son showcased more sharply defined features—thick, arched eyebrows gracefully extending into his temples. His eyes were deep-set, and his gaze was as sharp as his father’s. He was also tall and slim. “Oh, Charles, greetings to you as well!” Richard extended an affectionate smile to the younger Iverson, whom he had watched grow up. “Lance, didn’t you say that you were bringing your youngest son along as well? It’s been quite a few years since I last laid eyes on your fourth son. Why isn’t he with you?” “Haha… That rascal mentioned having some last-minute business to attend to, so he will be arriving a bit later.” Lance scanned his surroundings, exp

With Christopher’s taunting, Charles’s expression shifted instantly, and he discreetly clenched his fists.The Ashford family members pretended not to notice, but at this precise moment, Lance exhibited keen perception. As he gazed at Christopher, his eyes unmistakably conveyed displeasure.“Maureen, I’ll have someone fetch you a glass of white wine to wash down the seafood. A small glass won’t do any harm,” Christopher suggested gently, now disregarding the pallid Charles.Maureen coughed. “Well, to be honest, anything is fine for me.”Caught between the two Iverson brothers, Maureen felt a tingling sensation on her scalp. She could only offer an awkward smile and say, “But I actually prefer beer…”To her surprise, both Charles and Christopher simultaneously redirected their attention to her, saying in unison, “No! That could lead to gout!”As dinner neared its end, Christopher briefly excused himself and headed toward the restroom.Standing in front of the sink, Christopher methodic

During this period, although the Vance Hotel and Ashford Hotel appeared to be at peace on the surface, they were quietly competing against each other behind the scenes. As an international superstar, Xin Wang held a prestigious position in the entertainment industry and always conducted herself in an extremely high-profile manner. She would spare no expense for her wedding. Thus, she would not look at wedding planning proposals unless several top-tier brands sponsored the event. It was widely known that Xin Wang was a jewelry connoisseur, having privately held small-scale exhibitions of her extensive personal collection, where each piece was valued at no less than a million dollars. For this grand wedding, Xin Wang presented a demanding requirement to both the Vance Hotel and the Ashford Hotel. The jewelry she would wear must be globally top-notch, made by master craftsmen, and exclusively for her. “Ms. Xin insisted that only something unique would be fitting for her superstar st

At this moment, Lucas walked over with a cup of coffee and placed it on the table. “Mr. Vance, I’ve already contacted Ms. Silvia, the person in charge of Alexa’s studio. She said she’s willing to meet you.” “Really?” Damien’s dim eyes finally lit up. “Yes, but she only agreed to a meeting, and her attitude seemed quite cold and reluctant.” Lucas sighed with concern. “I’m afraid we might hit a snag in this matter.” “No need to worry. As long as someone from Alexa’s team is willing to meet me, we shouldn’t give up any hope.” After arriving in Inalia, Damien anxiously waited for three days before finally meeting Silvia, the person in charge, at a café near Alexa’s studio. He did not even get to step inside the studio. “Mr. Vance, if you don’t mind me being straightforward…” Silvia crossed her arms. Her gaze toward Damien was somewhat arrogant. “Up until now, Alexa has only designed and crafted jewelry for the First Lady, royal members, and individuals who have made outstanding co

“Mr. Vance, your wisdom knows no bounds!” Lucas could not help but break into a nervous sweat as he cautiously asked, “Given Young Madam’s unpredictable nature and her relentless tactics, do you think she might actually steal Xin away? Maybe we should…” “What?” Damien interrupted, his eyebrow furrowing in response. Lucas grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth. “Why not let Young Madam have her way this time? Anyway, it’s not the ultimate showdown. It’s just a welcoming banquet. A real man shouldn’t compete with a woman, especially considering you two used to be married…” “No way!” Damien cut him off decisively and frowned. “Since the plan with Alexa is not feasible right now, we have to start with Xin Wang. If Maureen can think of it, it means her situation is similar to ours. At this critical moment, any small progress could change the situation dramatically. I won’t let her have the upper hand. By any means necessary, Xin Wang must attend our welcoming banquet!” Hav
