Ex-husband’s Regret

Frank woke up very quickly.

Earlier than expected.

So much so that Alex hadn't finished dealing with things on his end.

Zachary and Alan hadn't found any trace of Charlotte either.

Jane waited at the door of Frank's ward, while Alana waited next door for her child to wake up.

Both were on edge.

Jane was about to go get a hot coffee to calm her and Alana's nerves when the ward door suddenly opened.

She turned her head in a daze.

Seeing Frank's pale face made her even more anxious.

Her lips fumbled for a moment before she managed to say dryly, "You're awake..."

Although Frank looked unwell, the coldness and pressure he exuded hadn't diminished at all.

"Where's Charlotte?"

Jane had to tell the truth quickly, even if Frank went mad, he could find Charlotte faster.

"She went into the emergency room but hasn't come out. We went in to look, but no one was there, and now..." "Frank."

Jane's words were cut off by the hurried arrival of Zachary.

Zachary didn't have time to catch his breath. "Madam Shaw has passed away."

"What?"

"What?"

Frank was shocked, but his nature meant his emotions wouldn't fluctuate too visibly. Jane, however, was so stunned that her

Voice broke. "Are you sure?"

Zachary's expression was serious. "How could I joke about something like this?"

Jane felt a bit unsteady, what was going on?

Originally, Charlotte reuniting with her grandma was such a good thing.

How had it turned into this?

"Ben has also died."

Frank felt both shock and sorrow.

But there was something even more important.

Frank asked, "Where's Charlotte?"

Zachary replied truthfully, "Alan is still looking. He was also injured by the sulfuric acid, and his wound hasn't been treated properly, he's been searching." Frank's hand, which hung by his side, instinctively rubbed his thumb and i

finger together.

He had some guesses in his heart but didn't dare to confirm them.

"Danny!"

Danny woke up, and the first thing he said was that he wanted to find Frank, so Alana brought him over.

"You can't run, walk slowly."

Danny couldn't wait, he hugged Frank's thigh tightly.

"It's the man who's trying to take away Aunt Charlotte!" "What?"

Frank didn't immediately understand what he meant.

Danny, with a serious little face, said angrily, "It's the man named Jack who brought a dog to our house! He took Aunt Charlotte away!" Zachary was startled. "You saw Jack?"

"Yes!" Danny nodded vigorously. "Uncle, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Alana didn't know about this.

At the time of the explosion, it had come so suddenly, Danny was playing with other kids and was a bit farther away from her.

Even with her quick reaction, he had still been affected.

He had gone into the emergency room right after Charlotte.

She asked, "How did you see that? You were unconscious at the time."

"I woke up in the emergency room and saw Aunt Charlotte being taken away, but the doctor immediately gave me a shot..."

Frank had always suspected this, but he didn't expect Jack to be like a cockroach, utterly disgusting and hard to kill.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

The one who found it hardest to accept was Zachary.

"Danny, are you sure about this?"

He had assured Frank that Jack must be dead.

Danny shook his head. "I'm sure. It was him."

He remembered clearly the person who tried to take his aunt!

Zachary found it hard to believe. "Is he Superman or something? The chemical plant exploded into ruins, how did he survive and come to take Charlotte?" "That's what I want to ask you." Frank's expression was flat, his tone light.

Zachary felt that it would be better if Frank gave him a beating.
