Ex-husband’s Regret

Upon returning to Region Gardens, Frank led me toward the bed.

"It's still not dark outside!"

I felt a bit shy and pushed him away with all my might.

Frank held my hands down. "Today is our wedding. Everyone knows what that means..."

I caught the evident desire in his eyes and couldn't help but glare at him.

He continued, "Besides, Mom is in the children's room playing with the kids. No one will disturb us."

I was no match for his strength and was completely under his control.

I couldn't break free or stop him.

Feeling embarrassed, I needed to think of a way to stall for time.

"Let's not discuss Jane and Zachary, but there is something we need to talk about."

Frank's expression remained focused as he asked, "Mom and Jason?"

I nodded.

Initially, my mom had agreed, and Linvited Jason to the wedding.

However, upon hearing my arrangements, Jason politely declined. "We can't overshadow your wedding. Dancing and singing are fine, but your mom can take the stage to speak, I won't."

"Charlotte, I understand your point. Your mom's willingness to let me attend your wedding shows we're not completely estranged. I appreciate that. But the wedding is important, especially since you and Frank have come this far." "Feelings can't be forced, and I don't want to put your mom in a tough spot. Let things flow naturally."

So, I didn't include any of those elements in the wedding.

Moreover, when Jason came, he was very low-key, fully dressed, and only greeted my mom privately.

Throughout the ceremony, they hardly exchanged any words.

Just earlier, Alan had taken my mom back, and Jason had dropped by briefly before flying abroad for an event.

"So, since you're so clever. Analyze for me. Is there any chance for Mom and Jason?"

Frank teased, squinting his eyes. "Trying to buy some time?"

I certainly couldn't admit that, so I argued, "Mom is our closest person. How can you not care about her happiness?" "Oh, here comes the moral kidnapping."

I intended to say more to stop him, but he had already seized the opportunity.

The sounds I tried to produce shattered in my throat.

Hearing myself made me blush all over.

Zachary was determined to settle things with Jane today, but she wanted to keep their paths separate.

She decided to move on and not look back.

At least for now, she had to be responsible for Michael

Even if they weren't in a real romantic relationship, she couldn't have it both ways.

"Mr. Collins, save yourself some embarrassment."

Zachary had no intention of letting go. While Michael couldn't match him in strength, he also couldn't just stand there like a statue.

However, before Michael even approached Zachary, he was pinned to the ground by his bodyguards.

It was the first time he felt such resentment towards the class differences.

Zachary had a close childhood friend, rumored to be his first love.

Yet, Zachary hadn't denied it and had brought her to Charlotte and Frank's wedding.

How could he then entangle himself with Jane again?

A man who couldn't distinguish between his feelings clearly didn't deserve Jane.

"You're just relying on your family background!"

Zachary ignored Michael, focusing solely on Jane. "If you don't want him to suffer, come with me." Jane scoffed. "If Mr. Collins likes to do things by force, I wouldn't need to work so hard to flirt with you." Ignoring her sarcasm, Zachary directly pushed her into the car.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Jane struggled but couldn't match his strength.

"Zachary..."

Nina had never seen this side of Zachary.
