Ex-husband’s Regret by Lean

Chapter 168

On the day Grandfather passed away, he mentioned that Ryan would eventually find out. He couldn't be kept in the dark forever. Knowing that night was better than knowing later, to prevent him from being deceived by this Lauren and Jessica any longer.

However, what caught me off guard was Albert, sounding puzzled on the phone. "Mrs. Frost, where did you hear about this?"

I persisted, wanting to confirm with Albert again, but Ryan snatched the phone from me and walked outside with a grim expression, apparently asking Albert something.

When he returned, the brewing storm in his eyes seemed almost ready to swallow me whole. His voice was cold and sharp, "Do you have anything else to say?"
