Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209 

‘Suicide? So, is suicide their family’s specialty, passed down through the generations?‘ I wondered. 

I didn’t know what mentality I was in, but almost involuntarily, I asked, “Do you need me to go with you?” 

Maybe I wanted to see for myself if it was true or false. 

Or perhaps, I was afraid… afraid that if something really happened, Ryan wouldn’t have anyone he could trust by his side. 

Ryan looked at me with surprise. “Can you?” 

“Let’s go.” I picked up my bag and went with him to the hospital. 

When we arrived at the hospital, Lauren was still in the emergency room, and Jessica and John were waiting outside. 

The scene struck me as somewhat comical. 

But at such a tense moment, I shouldn’t be laughing, so I mentally reviewed all the unhappy events in my life. 

Ryan, Jessica, John, plus Lauren inside the emergency room. 

If you were to draw a relationship diagram of these four people, it would probably resemble a chaotic spider web. 

Jessica suddenly rushed over and shoved me forcefully. “Charlotte, what are you laughing at? My mom is in trouble, are you happy about this, coming specially to see the excitement?” 

Yes, I tried hard to suppress my laughter, but couldn’t. 

But I lagged behind Ryan by half a step, and he didn’t see. 

Immediately, he shielded me behind him, his face frosty, his voice icy. “What’s wrong with you? I asked Charlotte to come.” 

“Ryan…” 

Jessica’s and John’s matter had been exposed. She dared not act as usual in front of Ryan and just burst into tears. “Why did you ask her to come? If it weren’t for her provoking my mom so much, how could my mom have committed suicide!” 

“What do you mean by provoking?” I stepped forward, speaking calmly and reasonably. “You did things willingly. At the Civil Affairs Bureau, it was you who cursed and fought with your mom. What does that have to do with me?” 

“You!” 

Jessica was momentarily speechless, hindered by Ryan’s presence, she could only glare at me angrily. John, on the other hand, was concerned about his confidante and accused me indignantly, “Charlotte,

when Grandpa was alive, you were still gentle and kind. How did you become like this now? Do you want to disturb this family into chaos?” 

Both were good at pinning the blame. 

After the online incident, they had been criticized for two days and nights. Probably the only conclusion they drew was that it was all my fault.
