Ex-husband’s Regret

623

"Was it you who changed my clothes?"

When I woke up on the boat, I was wearing a set of beige cotton pajamas.

At that moment, I was too shocked to see Jack, and then I was in a constant state of panic, desperately thinking of ways to escape.

All sorts of emotions made me forget about this matter.

Jack's gaze lightly swept over me, and I couldn't tell what flickered in his eyes, but he actually said "Yes."

1: nly tensed up, a wave of disgust surging uncontrollably.

I didn't understand how someone I once trusted the most, someone who knew how to navigate relationships, had turned into this.

Even though it was under unconscious circumstances, just thinking about it made me feel as if ants were crawling all over me.

That kind of physical discomfort was impossible to control.

"I just changed your clothes, why do you look so lifeless?"

Jack pulled me to the deck.

The cold sea breeze blew toward me, howling, but I still couldn't catch my breath.

I didn't want to talk to Jack.

He let go of me, clearly confident that I wouldn't jump into the sea.

He took a chair and sat down on the deck.

I stood by the railing, keeping my distance from him.

Jack looked at me. "I'll take it as you're still not used to it, it's okay, we have plenty of time to get to know each other better, and you won't resist me anymore." My stomach churned, and I turned my head to lean over the nearby trash can and threw up.

The meal I had just eaten felt like a waste.

Just thinking about him changing my clothes made me nauseous.

Jack frowned slightly. "Drink some water."

As he spoke, he handed me a cup, but I didn't take it.

He pointed ahead. "We'll be docking soon."

I glanced toward the back of the boat and saw nothing but unfathomable darkness.

Jack shoved the cup into my hand and patted my head. "Don't think about it, it's a private sea area, Frank can't come in."

I remained silent.

However, Jack didn't get angry at my attitude.

He gently reached out, wanting to tuck my hair, which had been blown by the wind, behind my ear.

I frowned and instinctively turned my head away.

Jack looked at his hand hanging in mid-air and smiled. "Senno has taken an interest in Frank. If Frank really wanted to come into this sea area to save you, he would have to deal with Senno, but given Frank's personality, I don't think that's possible. So, he will never come into this sea area. Senno is one of the biggest mafia families here, no matter how capable Frank is, he can't confront them head-on."

Upon hearing this, I clenched my palms.

explicably believed in Frank.

He would find a way.

"Charlotte, I love you more than Frank does. Stop thinking about him. If you behave, I can let you give birth to this child. But if you still foolishly hope Frank will come to take you away, then I can only give you a lasting memory."Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

I couldn't hold back, I suddenly raised my hand and splashed water on his face.

Before he could react, I smashed the cup, took off the black coat I was wearing, left the deck, and returned to my room.

Even knowing it was futile, I still locked the door.

I didn't dare to sleep and moved a stool to block the door.

Even if I really couldn't hold on and fell asleep, I would know if Jack opened the door.

Thus, I would wake up.

Frank's boat was still drifting outside Senno's sea area.

Senno kept sending him messages, but he acted as if he hadn't seen them.

Senno was furious enough to order cannon fire to drive Frank away.

But he didn't know that Frank had already boarded a secret boat sent by the Jebwi family to pick him up.

At that moment, he was already on land.

"I was still curious about who had such great ability to speak so arrogantly, claiming to help me get rid of the Valin family."
