Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 4

Ryan almost agreed instantly and didn't hesitate at all.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, curved my lips, and locked gazes with him. "Are you really willing to give me 10% of the company's shares?"

His eyes were clear. "I'm giving the shares to you and not some outsider."

At that moment, I had to admit that money was really good at proving loyalty.

All the emotions that I had suppressed during the morning had finally eased.

As if trying to prove something, I asked with a smile, "What about Jessica? Are you willing to give her shares?"

He fell silent for a moment and then gave me a definite answer. "No."

"Seriously?"

"Seriously. All I can give her is the director's position."

Ryan pulled me into his arms and said in a warm and gentle voice, "I'll get Gary to bring the share transfer agreement in the afternoon. From today onwards, you're one of the Frost Group's shareholders. Everyone else will be working for you."

"What about you?" I asked with a smile since I was in a better mood.

He cocked his brows. "What?"

"Are you working for me?"

"Of course." He smiled and rubbed my head. He then leaned in and whispered in my ear, "I'm at your service both in and out of bed."

I blushed at those words and then glared at him.

This was what Ryan was like. He looked like a serious man, cold and distant, but his words could make someone blush easily.

Seeing that my mood had improved, he looked at his watch. "I've got a meeting to go to. It's the weekend tomorrow, let's head back to the Frost family's residence tonight and have dinner with Grandpa. I'll wait for you in the car park."

"Okay." I obviously wasn't going to refuse. I gave it some thought and made a decision. "Honey, I have a surprise for you tonight."

A few days ago, due to his lie about the necklace, I wasn't sure if I should tell him about me being pregnant.

But now that he could tell the difference in importance between me and Jessica, I felt that I shouldn't keep such a matter a secret anymore.

"What surprise?" Ryan was very curious and wanted to know the answer right away.

"I'll tell you when I get off work!" I went on my tiptoes and kissed him on the lips.

After doing so, I went back to work and didn't talk to him anymore.

After Ryan had left, I focused my attention on the designs.

Not knowing how long had passed, someone knocked on the door of my office again.

"Come in," I said without raising my head.

"Am I disturbing you, Charlotte?" Jessica's gentle voice sounded.

"A little," I replied honestly.

I didn't like being interrupted during work.

An awkward expression appeared on Jessica's face. She then said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I just found out that the director of the Design Department should have been yours. I accidentally took your position, so I thought I'd come and apologize."

"It's alright."

Ryan had already made up for it.

10% of the Frost Group's shares was something I couldn't earn in my whole life working as the director of the Design Department.

My calmness and indifference seemed to have surprised Jessica.

"Are you sure you're alright with this? If you feel uncomfortable about it, you can just tell me. I can switch to another department. I don't want to be unhappy because of this." She walked casually to the sofa and sat down.

"I'm fine, Jessica. You can stay in the Design Department."
