Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244 

*Ouch.” 

This trick was exactly the same as last time. 

I pointed at his right hand. “You just used that hand to pull me earlier, with quite some strength.” 

“Doing that earlier made my arm ache.” He smoothly picked up where I left off. 

I stuffed a piece of dragon fruit into his mouth. “Alright, eat up, eat more.” 

Later in the evening, Gary brought in a stack of documents. 

They were all documents waiting from the company. As long as Ryan was still alive, we had to find a way to handle them. 

His right hand was indeed injured, unable to be used frequently. So, I helped him flip through the documents and he signed them at the end. 

For a moment, it felt like we had returned to the days of mutual respect. 

“Charlotte, there’s an issue with this return rate…” Ryan turned his head as I leaned forward to pass over a new document. 

His slightly cool lips unexpectedly landed on my face. 

We both froze! 

Although we had many intimate moments before, things were different now…

I didn’t expect her to be so strong. Caught off guard, I bumped into the corner of the bedside table. 

Before I could straighten up, Bethany stared angrily at Ryan “Ryan, you’re so mean much! I came here with good intentions to visit, and this is what I see.” 

Unexpectedly, Ryan just gave her a cold glance, his voice chilling. ‘Who asked you to come?” 

“It was me who asked her to come. 

Seeing them on the verge of conflict, Lauren, in the role of peacemaker, intervened, sounding like a protective mother. “Ryan, Miss Shaw heard you had an accident and specially asked me which hospital you were in. She insisted on coming to see you. Where else can you find such a considerate girl?” 

From her words, I understood. 

She must have seen that Jessica had lost his chance at taking over, so she immediately started supporting Bethany. 

‘Wendy…” 

Ryan looked at her coldly, somewhat puzzled. “First Jessica, now Bethany. Why do you think you can dictate my marriage?”
