Dylan apartment.

Lucy was reclining on a chair deep in thought, before a hand appeared in front of her, picking her up. “What are you thinking about?” Dylan asked her. She had been moody for a week now.

After Jane and Leonard's engagement, her mood had turned sour. She had been happy after finding her lost friend, and her happiness affected him, now she is moody, which is also affecting him negatively. He hadn’t been intimate with her for a while now, which he caused his friend, Leonard, for his misfortune.

If it’s not for him, he wouldn’t be suffering.”I’m just thinking about Jane. You know, she has gone through a lot already, I can’t see her suffer again.” Lucy's care for Jane was genuine, which Dylan was always jealous of. Sitting her down on a chair in the dining room, he went to the kitchen to bring some cutlery.

“I ordered Chinese, let’s eat.” He said as he walked up to her. He brought the takeout to the table, opening them one by one. “Don’t you hear what I said? How ca

    “Mom, Jane rushed into her mother's waiting arms. “Oh, my darling.” Evelyn hugged her daughter affectionately. “I’ve missed you, mom.” Jane's soft voice sounded. Evelyn chuckled. “In a week, you will be a married woman. Your husband's house would be yours, you have to get used to it. “Alright, mum.” She mumbled. “Where are Dad and Desmond? Jane gazed into the dining hall, and, seeing her brother and father were nowhere to be seen, I thought you invited me for a family dinner.” “They will be back soon. Your dad called me just now, he said there is a traffic jam.” Work has been hectic for some days now, they are always coming back late. Sometimes, Desmond won’t come back at all. Evelyn complained. “That reminds me, Mum, I need your help in persuading Dad to let me work at his company. I’ve been idle enough.” Jane complained. Evelyn's expression turned thoughtful. “Ah, Jane, I've been thinking about that too. Your father would be delighted to have you on board, but you know how he

    As Jane walked out, she was greeted by Leonard's warm smile and piercing eyes. He looked dashing in his tailored suit, his hair perfectly styled. “Hey, beautiful,” he said, offering his arm. Jane's heart skipped a beat, looking at the dashing man in front of her, feeling a rush of excitement. “I didn't expect you to pick me up,” she said, her voice barely above a whisper as she walked into his embrace. Leonard chuckled. “I wanted to surprise you. Besides, I missed you.” Jane's cheeks flushed as he led her to his car. As they drove away, Evelyn watched from the window, a smile on her face. “Please keep her happy, Leonard,” she whispered to herself. The drive was filled with easy conversation, Leonard asking about her day and Jane sharing stories about her family dinner. When they arrived at their home, Leonard hugged her waist as they walked in. “Welcome sir, welcome ma’am.” The butler greeted them as they nodded towards him, walking into the elevator. Thirty minut

    The phone rang, piercing the serene atmosphere. Leonard sighed, reluctantly releasing Jane from his embrace. “I'll get it,” he said, walking to the nightstand, and picking up his phone. Jane watched as he answered, his expression changing from relaxed to formal. She walked back to the bed, and lay down, covering herself with the blanket, as she stared at her man's gracious figure in his pajamas. “Mother,” he said, his tone respectful, watching as Jane lay down on the bed. Jane's curiosity piqued. Seeing her curiosity, he walked to the bed, climbed in, and drew her into his embrace, making her rest her head on his chest. “Hello, dear,” Leonard's mother's voice chimed through the phone. “I hope I'm not interrupting anything.” “No, Mother. What's up?” Leonard replied, caressing Jane’s silky brown hair. “I was thinking, Jane should meet with the wedding planner tomorrow. We need to finalize the wedding details,” she said. Jane's heart skipped a beat. The wedding. “Of cour

    Ivy’s presence sparked unease in Jane's chest. She hadn't expected to encounter her here. “Jane, you are finally here.” Lisa hugged Jane affectionately. “I miss you.” Jane hugged her back. “I miss you too dear.” They giggled as they released each other. Ivy's face burned with their intimacy. She had known Lisa since they were kids. She knew Lisa didn’t like associating with too many people. As the heiress of the Banks family, Lisa was a spoiled brat. She had made sure Lisa didn’t associate with the girls in their social circles. Her relationship with Jane puzzled her. She promised herself to destroy this relationship. “Aunt, you are here.” She greeted Catherine. “Don’t be angry I came uninvited, I was bored at home, and when Lisa told me she wanted to go shopping with you, I decided to come with her, to kill boredom.” She hugged Catherine's arm, acting coquettish. “No Ivy, why would I be angry? You are also like a daughter to me. I watch you grow. I would love having you shop w

    The room fell silent. All eyes turned to Ivy. Catherine's face darkened. “Ivy, is this true?” Though Catherine knew Ivy didn’t like Jane due to her connection with Leonard, the man she loved, she didn’t expect her to stoop this low, just to make them hate Jane. Ivy's face reddened, her eyes flashing with defiance. “Of course not, Aunty! This is ridiculous. The salesperson must be mistaken,” Ivy spat, her voice dripping with venom. The salesperson was shocked at Ivy's shamelessness. “But you told me… “Shut up.” Ivy glared at her, making the small girl shaken. “And even if it were true, which it's not, you'd still defend Jane, wouldn't you? You're blind to her manipulations,” Ivy snarled at Catherine, her gaze shifting to Jane. “You think you've won, but this isn't over. You'll pay for stealing Leonard from me.” “Ivy!” Lisa angrily shouted her name. “Just shut up already. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? My brother has made it clear several times that he doesn’t and would nev

    “That’s all for today's schedule sir.” Rachel looked up from the tab in her hand and handed some documents to Leonard. Leonard took the documents from Rachel, scanning them briefly before nodding. “Thank you, Rachel. You've been invaluable today.” Rachel smiled, gathering her belongings. “It's my pleasure, sir. Shall I schedule the meeting with the Lockwood representatives for tomorrow?” Leonard nodded. “Yes, please do. And make sure to include Desmond in the meeting. I want his input on the merger.” Rachel's eyes flickered with curiosity, but she remained professional. “Consider it done, sir.” As Rachel exited the office, Leonard's gaze drifted to the photo on his desk. Jane, with her bright smile and sparkling eyes, was his rock. He couldn't wait to see her after work. Just then, his phone buzzed. Eric's name flashed on the screen. “Hey, Len! I've got some intel on Ivy and Gavin, your cousin. Eric said, his voice low and serious. Leonard rests his back on his executi

The stress of the day melted away, replaced by a sense of calm and comfort. “Are you okay?” Leonard's voice was laced with concern. Jane was surprised by the urgency in his voice. After understanding he might have been filled in on what happened today, she felt touched by his care and concern for her. Jane's surprise turned to warmth as she wrapped her arms around him. She chuckled as she said, “I’m in front of you breathing fine, of course, I’m okay. Leonard's beating heart calmed down seeing she could still joke after everything. “At least she is fine.” He reassured himself. Leonard's grip tightened, his face buried in her hair. Her fragrance, a subtle blend of vanilla and sweetness, soothed his frazzled nerves. As Leonard held her close, Jane felt his tension ease, his chest rising and falling with deeper breaths. His relief was palpable, and she

    “Had you guys allowed me to discipline that wretched b*tch yesterday, I would have torn her into pieces.” Lucy fumed in anger, still not satisfied with almost making Ivy bald yesterday.“Lucy, violence isn’t everything. Sometimes, you just have to make clowns make fools of themselves. For a proud person like Ivy, losing face was the greatest punishment of all.” Jane sneered as she sipped her coffee.She had received a call from Lucy this morning to meet up at a cafe near her house. She knew Lucy was worried about her. She reassured her not to worry, but she insisted on seeing her.

Get here with your team immediately.” Leonard explained the situation in one breath, feeling frustrated.“That sly, deceitful motherfvcker. He is like a snake who attacks when you least expect it.

    “Is everything alright?” Jane asked worriedly as she saw Leonard's frowning face. Leonard let out a deep sigh as he heard Jane’s worried voice. Taking his gaze back to the beautiful woman on the screen, his frown immediately vanished as he smiled lovingly at Jane, whose despite her bruised cheek, her beauty still shone through.

    New York 10:00pm “Ouch,” Jane, who stood in front of the vanity in her room, winced in pain. Her eyes welled up in tears as she dabbed cotton swabs on her swollen cheek. She bit her lips to hold back her whimper. Her hand trembled slightly as she hissed through gritted teeth as the swab made contact with her tender cheek skin. The warm glow of the table lamp on her vanity cast a warm glow on her soft and delicate body. As she studied her reflection in the mirror, she noticed the faint bruise that had formed on her tender cheek skin. Her thought couldn’t help drifting back to Helen’s ruthless slap, as her mind replayed the scene continuously. A spark of anger ignited within her as she felt the surge of revenge brewing in her heart. She was done with letting others bully her. From today onwards, she was done with being a victim of bullying. Just then, her phone rang, it’s loud ringtone shattering the peaceful silence in the room, interrupting her thought. Jane couldn’t help feeli

You can’t just send me out of the house because of an outsider.” Ivy said, her eyes red-rimmed from shedding some tears.“Since you know that, apologize to Jane immediately. And I don’t ever want to hear you call Jane an outsider. She is family.” Grandpa Edward said, his face slightly pale, but his words were firm.“Fine, since you are not supporting me anymore, I will leave.” Ivy’s face contorted in anger as she said this. “Had you not promised me when I was young that Leonard was mine, I wouldn’t be so obsessed with him till now.
