Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 256

Chapter 256 

“Three…” 

Ryan’s aura dropped sharply. He steadily raised the gun, aiming it at Bethany. 

Bethany desperately shook her head. “No… Ryan, don’t” 

Ryan, however, showed no signs of emotional disturbance. But in the fleeting moment our eyes met, I saw a deep, suppressed anguish in his gaze. 

Zack continued to count down. “Two…” 

Ryan gritted his teeth, lightly shaking his wrist, and chambered the gun with one hand. 

“One…” 

Bang! 

In the instant the gun fired, Ryan suddenly changed direction, and with precision, pulled the trigger whilst aiming at me! 

I was completely frozen, my blood running cold! 

It turned out that I was the one he abandoned. 

Even if it meant I had to die. 

Despair seeped into every part of me in an instant. I stared blankly in Ryan’s direction, my vision becoming unfocused. 

Although the anticipated pain did not come, somewhere within me, a sharp, piercing pain throbbed. 

“It’s my own choice…” 

“I’m trying to win you back…” 

“I’ll take the remaining ninety–nine steps for you. Just wait here and don’t back out of this last step.” 

“Charlotte, I’m serious, and I will make it right. I don’t want to lose you.” 

“I’m beginning to have other thoughts about you, so I’m barking like a dog…” 

“No matter what happens, you must believe in me.” 

The so–called pursuit of love and deep affection had become a huge joke at this moment. 

It was all fake. 

His deep feelings for me were worthless. 

It was my own folly to naively hope he would choose to save me… 

He would never choose me. 

Never 

‘Charlotte, why are you so foolish?

Zack laughed again. “Mr. Frost, don’t be angry. It was just a joke. This one is Miss Shaw from the Shaw family, and the other is your wife for now. How could I dare lay a finger on them?” 

“But, I didn’t expect that even Mr. Frost couldn’t escape the fact that one could be fickle in affection!” 

A thin layer of cold, frosty mist covered Ryan’s dark eyes. “Can we release them now?” 

‘Since you’ve chosen Miss Shaw, of course, she can go. Please, feel free!” said Zack. 

Ryan walked over slowly, his face showing an almost imperceptible struggle. If one didn’t know him well, they wouldn’t notice it at all.
