Ex-husband’s Regret by Lean

Chapter 160

In the middle of the night, as I slept leaning on the hospital bed, I felt like dry fingers were caressing my face.

"You fool, you believe everything people tell you."

"Mmm..." I brushed away that hand and turned in the other direction, then belatedly realized I was

supposed to be taking care of a patient. I abruptly lifted my head, bewildered. "What did you just say? Is something wrong?"

I didn't dwell on it much. I just thought I was imagining things, and then dozed off again.

Early the next morning, Gary specially brought breakfast from a well-known cafe.

It was exactly to Ryan's taste.

Gary didn't just bring breakfast; he also had a stack of documents that needed attention. Being the CEO of the Frost Group wasn't all that easy.

As I ate my breakfast, I occasionally glanced in his direction.

The warm winter sun streamed in, enveloping the man in a soft glow, highlighting his perfect profile with his glasses perched on his high nose and his lips slightly pursed.
