Ex-husband’s Regret

Not

far away was Zachary... and the rumored first love.

I couldn't help but frown, "Alana, can you keep Jane company for a bit? I need to..."

Alana gave me an OK gesture and went to find Jane.

She even blocked Jane's line of sight,

I quickly went to find Frank.

Frank had already seen and walked towards Zachary.

"What a good brother I have," he said sarcastically. "On my family's big day, you're here to ruin the fun."

Zachary hadn't spoken yet when Charlie chimed in, "No, how is it ruining the fun? There are no other ex-girlfriends of Zachary here."

Zachary shot him a sidelong glance. "Shut up."

Charlie looked quite aggrieved, "I was speaking up for you."

Zachary couldn't be bothered to respond to him and looked at Frank, his gaze actually crossing over him

to Jane.

Frank stepped aside, completely blocking his view.

Zachary knew what Frank meant by a big day. It wasn't just the birthday party, it was also the day for his proposal.

He said, "I won't ruin the fun."

"Nina isn't an outsider either, the red envelope is ready."

Nina Linton handed me a gift bag. "Happy birthday, and congratulations, Mrs. Smith."

I smiled politely and looked up at Frank.

Frank took the bag, smiling as he weighed it. "Is this a gift from the two of you?"

Nina's smile was perfectly measured, like it was drawn with a ruler.

Both sides were symmetrical, paired with her long, straight black hair and a simple white dress, elegant and poised.

She wasn't the prettiest, but she was enough to catch people's eyes..

Her beauty was completely different from Jane's bright and vivacious style.

If Zachary liked Nina, he would definitely not like Jane,

"It's just from me. As your best friend, Zachary can't be as stingy as I am."

The wedding gift inside the bag was already quite valuable..

Even if she said the gift was from both of them, no one could say anything, this was already quite appropriate for a first meeting with me.

"Alright." Frank nodded slightly. "Find a place to sit, I still have to host others. Let Zachary entertain you."

"Okay, do what you have to."

After Zachary and Nina left, I pulled Frank over. "How could this happen?"

Frank shrugged. "I really didn't know. Don't blame me,'All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"He has helped us a lot, but what he's doing is really annoying."

"Yeah, so you don't have to hold onto the favor he did. That counts on my side, you can fell however you want."

I frowned slightly. "I'll keep an eye on Jane. You need to make sure Zachary won't seek trouble."

Frank patted my head. "I promise."

"Wait." Charlie, who was still confused, said, "What are you all talking about? I didn't understand a word."

Frank dismissed him. "Can't you see how busy we are? Go help out."

Charlie had to set aside his curiosity and hurriedly left.

Once Charlie was far away, I whispered to Frank, "Aren't you going to tell him anything?"

"Tell him what?"

Frank glanced at Zachary. "They weren't together, nor did they confess. Jane was pursuing Zachary before, and it seems that they won't end up together anyway. Not saying anything would actually cause less trouble. There's no telling what's going on in that mind of Charlie's...

He shook his head, giving me a "you know what I mean" look.

I was rendered speechless.

'Alright then,' I thought.

Jane had actually seen everything.

When Alana came over, it was basically just to find something to talk about, she knew it was to prevent her from seeing Zachary.

"Alright, Alana, take a break and have something to drink. I have nothing to do with him, it doesn't matter who he brings. I won't ruin Charlotte's birthday party, so you don't have to keep an eye on me."
