Ex-husband’s Regret

Jane cocked her brows. "This is the key point. He likes me, feels guilty towards me, and wants to apologize. Therefore, it stands to reason that he wants to reveal the truth to me."

Charlotte nodded in agreement. "But given the current situation, a person's testimony is useless. We need both Nina and Michael's statements to match in order to deal with Nina. At least we have a direction for the investigation." "That's true."

Jane flipped over and sat up. "Let's ask during dinner."

Charlotte also got up and checked her phone. "They went drinking."

Jane just nodded and opened the bedroom door to go out.

Michael came out of the kitchen and saw her, showing a gentle smile. "Jane, Charlotte, it's time to eat."

Charlotte looked at the table filled with a variety of delicious dishes.

She whispered to Jane, "He really put in effort for you, but unfortunately, feelings are uncontrollable."

Jane handed her cutlery. "Since you're here, have a taste."

Charlotte wasn't very hungry but didn't want to spoil the mood, so she picked up her cutlery and ate some vegetables.

Jane was hungry and grabbed a piece of chicken breast.

Michael sat down opposite them and served them some soup.

He said to Charlotte, "Charlotte, Jane prefers light flavors, so I put less salt in the food. If you find it lacking flavor, I have salt, you can add some yourself."

"It's fine." Charlotte smiled politely. "I've been eating light flavors since giving birth, so I'm used to it."

But Jane also found it bland. "The food has no taste."

Michael offered her more vegetables. "Then you should eat more vegetables, Jane."

Jane didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly, "Just spill it. I'm only giving you this one chance. Even though you saved me, you did set me up before." Michael set down his cutlery.

He came today because he genuinely wanted to tell Jane the truth.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

However, since she and Zachary had broken up revealing it would only entangle them again.

He couldn't say anything about Nina as long as Zachary didn't break up with her cleanly.

Otherwise, it would only put Jane in danger.

"I have to go see grandma now. Enjoy your meal, Jane."

After saying that, he got up, walked to the entrance, changed his shoes, and left.

Once the door closed, Jane and Charlotte stared at each other in shock.

"Is he leaving just like that?" Jane couldn't believe it, still chewing on her food.

Charlotte finished her bowl of soup. "Did he become hesitant after hearing that you and Zachary broke up?"

Jane shook her head. "From my years of experience, it's not like that. This would be the perfect opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation. Telling the truth would be the best solution." Charlotte's understanding of men wasn't as deep as Jane's, so she couldn't offer much advice.

"There's nothing we can do if he chose not to say anything."

Jane didn't want to think too much and focused on her meal.

Suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Will Frank let you drive after drinking?"

Charlotte laughed helplessly. "He'll probably pretend to be drunk."

Jane chuckled. "I guess he'll have Alan pick you up."

Charlotte nodded. "100%."

Jane took a bite of chicken. "Then let's watch a movie.'

Charlotte agreed. "Sure."

At the bar.

Once Frank and Zachary entered the private room, the drinks were served.

Zachary downed one drink after another, hardly taking a break.

Frank shook his glass and poked him in the side. "Even if you drink until you bleed and end up in the hospital tonight, Jane won't come to see you." Zachary shot him a cold glance but said nothing.

Frank still considered their friendship and thought about offering some comfort.

At that moment, the door to the private room opened.

A cheerful voice rang out.

"Hi, my brothers!"
