Ex-husband’s Regret

"Jane, Sir Collins is in the hospital."

Jane jumped out of bed, quickly washed up, got dressed, and called a taxi to the hospital.

After getting out of the car, she called Charlotte. Charlotte and Frank were already at the hospital. After hanging up, she told Frank and then came downstairs to find her.

Jane walked over quickly. "What happened?

Charlotte said, "He's old and got too angry, so he fainted."

Jane bit her lip. "Is it because of me and Zachary?"

Charlotte shook her head. "Not entirely. Don't overthink it. It also has something to do with Nina. If you want to see Zachary, I'll talk to Frank, but we need to avoid the Collins family for now. We can't let Sir Collins know." "They've locked down the news. Sir Collins's illness can't be spread, so I can't take you up there for now. I'm sorry."

Firstly, it was because of Sir Collins's status

Secondly, although Charlotte was Jane's close friend, this was a private matter of the Collins family, and she had no standing to make any decisions for them.

Given the current attitude of the Collins family, it was better for Jane to keep her distance.

Jane nodded. "What are you apologizing for? I completely understand. Their family is special, I knew that before I started dating Zachary."

Charlotte said, "You haven't eaten yet, right? I'll go eat with you."

The two of them found a burger shop.

There weren't many people at that time, and they sat in a booth.

Charlotte talked about the specifics. "Nina told the Collins family about that night at the hotel. The Collins family wants Zachary to take responsibility but not marry her."

Jane paused in wiping the table and then let out a soft, cold laugh. "So Nina's plan didn't work out."

Charlotte nodded. "It's normal for the Collins family to oppose you and Zachary. It

mainly depends on what Zachary wants."

She sent a message to Frank and continued, "Zachary was busy all night trying to contain the news. Although his grandmother and grandfather had an arranged marriage, they have a good relationship. Because of their worries, they got emotional. He didn't even have time to recharge and inform you, so don't be mad." Jane asked, "Is this what you wanted to say, or did he ask you to tell me?"

"Of course he asked me to tell you this. Otherwise, I wouldn't speak up for him. I steadfastly stand by your side."

"Okay, with your words, I have no regrets."

"Touch wood!"

The two exchanged smiles.

After Zachary finished his tasks, he was still being watched. Under such

circumstances, he couldn't continue to oppose his family.

While he took the opportunity to go to the restroom, Roy brought him a fully charged phone. He quickly sent a message to Jane to apologize.

As Jane and Charlotte exited the burger shop, her phone vibrated.

She looked at it.

It was a message from Zachary. "Sorry, it's not convenient to call. I can only send you this message to express my apology. I might not be able to see you in the next few days, so don't overthink it. It has nothing to do with you. Take care of yourself. If you want to know about my situation, you can ask Charlotte."

He followed it with a sticker of someone kneeling and bowing.

Jane showed it to Charlotte.

Charlotte said, "I never thought he would use emojis."

Jane replied briefly, "I used to think he was emotionless, like a monk who had renounced the world. Who knew this solitary, cold flower growing on a cliff would turn out to be so hot to the touch once I plucked it."

Charlotte had to return to the hospital, and Jane took a taxi.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Before getting into the car, she anxiously reminded her, "Call me immediately if anything happens."
