Ex-husband’s Regret

"Yes, and he never responds to the rumors about my mom, but he has clarified others. Being unmarried and childless at this age isn't a problem, it just means he's waiting for someone to open up."

Frank pinched my face. "I didn't know you would pay attention to such details."

I heard all of this from Jane.

At that time, we didn't know that my mom was my biological mother.

Jane loved to chase celebrities and gossip, always chatting with me about it.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

When we talked about my mom and the Jason, we never imagined that one day the main person would have anything to do with us.

"I think we can find an opportunity to try."

Frank hummed in agreement, "Then go arrange it with Jane, I won't be involved. If there's something you really can't solve, just tell me."

I hugged him. "Thank you, Frank."

I knew he wanted me to not trap myself.

Frank held me as he lay down, a playful smile appeared on his face. "Let's thank me practically."

The next day, I asked Jane out.

Of course, I didn't get up until noon.

I told my mom I wouldn't be home for dinner and hurried out.

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw Jane leaning against the car.

She spotted me and opened the back door.

I asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

She pushed me inside, and I realized there was someone in the driver's seat.

The guy greeted me warmly, "Hello, Miss."

I looked at Jane. "What the hell's going on?"

Jane tossed her hair and introduced, "Michael Hall."

I smiled and nodded as a greeting, then whispered to Jane, "Is he your new friend?"

Jane beamed, "My new little puppy."

When the birthday party ended, I asked Jane.

She said if it weren't to help Frank propose to me, she wouldn't even spare Zachary a glance.

But after so many years as friends, I could tell she hadn't completely let go.

However, I also had no plans to help them clear up misunderstandings.

Because what Zachary did wasn't very nice.

If he wanted to be with Jane, he needed to suffer quite a bit.

"That's good, as long as you're happy."

Jane winked at me. "Isn't it funny? You told me you wanted to matchmake Ms. Jackson and Jason, and he is in the same crew as Jason."

I was surprised. "He's an actor?"

"Not graduated yet."

Jane said, "He just got an opportunity to join the crew, it's like starting an internship."

This world was big, yet it was surprisingly small.

I chuckled lightly. "That really is quite a coincidence."

We passed by a store on the way.

I had to say, this world was terrifyingly small.

That was what I silently thought when I saw Zachary at the store entrance.

What was even more coincidental was that Michael had just bought Jane her favorite iced coffee.

Jane was typing furiously on her phone, not noticing.

Michael opened the coffee cup and fed Jane a sip.

Jane took a sip and turned to him, smiling. "So sweet.

Jane could ignore Zachary, but since I saw him, I had to greet him.

Not liking what he did was one thing, but he also put in effort to help.

""Mr. Collins."

Zachary withdrew his gaze from Jane and turned to me.

Although his voice was faint, I could still hear the politeness.

"Out shopping with friends?"

I maintained a polite smile. "Just checking out the store and having a wander around."

Just as I finished speaking, a gentle female voice rang out.
