For seven years, Jessica Greene remained Timothy Lawson's secret wife, waiting patiently for the day he would finally acknowledge her. When he finally agrees to bring her to their son's school event, she believes her moment has come—until a devastating diagnosis shatters her world: she has only six months left to live.
Heartbroken but determined, she rushes to the school—only to find another woman playing the role of her son's mother. The child she carried for nine months clings to this stranger, calling her "Mommy."
In that moment, Jessica realizes the truth: Timothy will never love her.
So she does what she should have done years ago—she walks away. Leaving behind divorce papers, she disappears, determined to live whatever life she has left on her own terms.
But when Timothy discovers her absence, something unexpected happens. The cold, unfeeling man who once dismissed her now scours the world for her, desperation in his eyes.
And when he finally finds her?
Jessica Greene is no longer the woman he took for granted. Radiant, successful, and glowing with newfound happiness, she meets him with a smile—and a stunning announcement:
"Mr. Lawson, I'm getting married. Shall we finalize our divorce?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Goodbye, Mr. Regret
The plot of this novel is like an elevator. Its up then down, then up to be back to down again after. Same story. No interesting twists, always the same... naive Jessica, villain Timothy, so when can we have a refresher?...
