Ex-husband’s Regret

Across the ocean.

Alan received a phone call and hurried to report to Frank. Frank was about to pick up his phone and dial my number when he saw Alan and frowned slightly.

""You'd better have something very important."

"It's very important." Alan was sweating. "The place where Jack was kept has exploded."

Frank cocked his brows. "Exploded?"

Alan didn't was very nervous and said honestly, "The explosion was quite big, turning the area into ruins and has affected the surroundings. I need to go back and handle the relevant matters."

Frank leaned back in his chair, and something flickered in his brown eyes. He tapped his fingers on the

table twice.

"Even if it's in ruins, you still need to confirm whether he's really dead."

"Yes."

Alan hurriedly turned to leave, but just as he reached the door, he heard Frank's typically casual yet chilling voice from behind.

"Find out the details, and then you know what to do."

Alan didn't dare to argue. He had previously assured Frank that there wouldn't be any problems with Jack, Now, just because he had been out of the country for a few days and lost track, an incident had occurred. Thinking about having to go to some remote place in the future, he was feeling frustrated.

""Yes, Frank."

The door closed.

Frank got up and walked to the French Window, glancing at the blinding sun outside. After a while, he opened WhatsApp and started typing a message.

"No phone call today, I have something to deal with. Go to be early and take care of yourself."

Just as he was about to send the message, the hotel room door was violently kicked open.

The news of the explosion in the suburbs remained high on the trending searches.

I was scrolling through videos, and nine out of ten were about it.

It was an abandoned chemical plant, which had left behind many potentially toxic products. The explosion created a thick black smoke, and the air within several miles was polluted. Even though it was in the suburbs, there were still people living nearby "It looks serious. If there were people inside, they definitely wouldn't survive."

I nodded. "Okay, I get it."

Since my mom was maintaining her figure, she only ate a tomato and gave me the rest of the fruit.

"Go to bed after finishing them."

I asked hesitantly, "Mom, I won't turn into a pig, will 1?"

All I did were eating and sleeping all day long.

Yasmin reassured me, "No, you're eating a diet carefully prepared by a nutritionist, so you won't gain weight. Don't worry."

I felt relieved and pushed my mom towards her room. "Go get some beauty sleep, or you'll be swollen in the morning, and it won't look good on camera."

My mom was heading to the set and didn't have time to take care of me. She asked me to check when Frank would be back. If he couldn't make it, she suggested Jane could come and keep me company. "Don't stay up late either."

"Got it."

I glanced at the time; Frank hadn't called me today. I thought he might still be busy. There's a time difference between here and there; it's night here and daytime there. I sent him a message to ask. After finishing the fruit and still not receiving a reply, my right eyelid started twitching uncontrollably. I couldn't stay calm and decided to call him.

No one answered.

1 called several more times, but still no response.

Feeling increasingly anxious, I called Alan, but his phone was turned off.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Recalling that he had mentioned a special contact method before he went abroad, I quickly called summoned a bodyguard. But that person couldn't get in touch with Alan either. "Don't worry, Charlotte. I'll go check now."

"Okay, hurry."

After the bodyguard left, I was restless and couldn't just wait idly, so I decided to call Jane to ask her to check with Zachary.
