Chapter 1059

Author: Lean
"Mr. Howard’s illness is quite serious this time, but it wasn’t because he caught a cold from bringing you to the hospital today. It’s because he’s already been in poor health recently. It’s just a coincidence that the cold worsened his condition. Considering the past relationship, please stay and keep him company. Your fever hasn't subsided, and it's a good opportunity to rest in the hospital for a few days."

Jordan remained silent. At that moment, her phone rang.

She thought it was the driver calling, but when she picked up, it was Oliver.

"Oliver."

"Have you finished what you’re doing?" Oliver's gentle voice sounded on the other end of the line. "There's work here. Once you're done, come over. It’s fine if you’re not done yet. It's not an animal shoot. If you can't spare the time, I'll contact someone else."

Jordan quickly replied, "I'll fly over right now."

"Mrs. Howard, you're still running a fever." Buck spoke up, earning an angry glare from Jordan.

"Jordy, are you running

    Buck's unchanging poker face was stunned. "Wasn't it benign?""Well, someone has a death wish."That was true.Buck was about to say something when he heard Westley calling him. He quickly walked into the ward.He didn't need to listen, he knew it was something about Jordan."Go after her immediately. Keep a close watch on her and report back to me in real-time."Buck had been by Westley's side all these years.He thought he would be asked to arrange for someone trustworthy to keep an eye on her.But it turned out that it Westley was sending him."Sir, I can send Silas.""You go." Westley massaged his temples. "Silas still has his own matters to deal with.""Then what about Jax...""You go." Westley's eyes grew cold. "Do I need to repeat myself?""But what about you...""Do you think I’ll die in the Greyson family's hospital?"Well, that was not possible.The Greyson family's security was only slightly inferior to the Howard family's.But Buck had never left Westley's

    After getting into the car, Jordan woke up but didn't want to go to the hospital.Oliver also thought about going to a hotel, but it wasn't as convenient as home.First, hotels were always crowded with people coming and going. Second, no matter how clean they were, they still couldn't compare to the comfort of home.So he took the liberty of taking Jordan back to his own house.Jordan didn't know where she was, she just felt the soft bed beneath her and immediately found a comfortable position to sleep.Oliver removed her shoes and covered her with a blanket.Then, he went to call a family doctor to come over.Meanwhile, Buck only made it as far as the entrance of the neighborhood but couldn't get in.Oliver's family had some influence and lived in an upscale community.The security was quite good.Buck had to pull some strings to get in, and then he squatted outside Oliver's house.In the meantime, he was also thinking about how to report the fact that Jordan had been carri

    Oliver originally had no intention of getting involved in their marital issues.Besides, judging by Jordan's state, this marriage was bound to end sooner or later.He just needed to wait.However, Jordan had clearly been unhappy for some time now.And today, seeing her so ill, he couldn't suppress his emotions any longer."As a husband, you've truly failed," he said.Not to mention that, over the years, Oliver had never heard Jordan speak about her husband.The moment he learned she was married, she was already preparing for a divorce.And it seemed urgent.That alone was proof of how deeply Westley had hurt her.Oliver continued, "Taking your anger out on me—what does that prove? It's just impotent rage."Westley wanted to refute him but had to admit that Oliver was right.Looking back at everything he'd done in the past, he felt like slapping himself.Still, no matter what happened between him and Jordan, an outsider had no right to interfere.But before he could say an

    "Then how about I end my life in return?"In the end, Buck left.Caught in the middle, there was only so much he could do.However, he still acted cautiously and recorded the conversation.At least when reporting to Westley later, he might avoid harsher consequences.Oliver poured Jordan a glass of water and proactively explained, "Bringing you to my house was indeed thoughtless of me. But you didn't want to go to the hospital, and I felt a hotel wasn't suitable for recovering, I'm sorry.""Oliver, you don't need to apologize," replied Jordan, taking a sip of the water. "You didn't do anything wrong."Oliver saw the redness on her cheeks and her tired demeanor and didn't say much more."Get some rest first. The doctor will be here soon to set up an IV drip for you.""Alright." Jordan nodded, pulling the blanket over herself and lying down. "Thank you, Oliver.""There's no need for such words between us," Oliver said softly.His eyes were gentle, brimming with affection, but

    Jordan was awakened by a tempting aroma.Groggily, she sat up and realized she was still hooked up to an IV drip.Her body felt as though it had been pulled from water, drenched and weak.Looking around, the clean and warm-toned surroundings reminded her that she was at Oliver's house."Awake?"Oliver walked in, placing his warm hand gently on her forehead."The fever has gone down a bit."The medication in the IV bottle had just run out.He bent down, held her hand, and swiftly removed the needle.Jordan didn't feel any pain at all."Hold it here yourself," he instructed.Jordan pressed down on the needle site as instructed, while Oliver went out and returned with two bags in his hands."The bathroom is just next door. Change your clothes and come have something to eat."After her grandfather's passing, Jordan had rarely experienced such detailed care.The members of the Howard family were kind to her, but they were still Westley's relatives.During the years of his sil

    "Did you think I was that wife of yours, who’s currently staying with his lover?"Westley didn't even look at him, nor did he respond."Tsk."Frank casually sat down, placing the cheap fruit basket he had bought on the side. "I came all this way just to visit you. Zachary didn’t have time, so he asked me to check in on you on his behalf."Westley glanced at the low-quality fruit basket. "You, Frank, with your wealth and business empire, can't even afford a premium fruit basket?"Frank chuckled. "Oh, I see. You can't lash out at others, so you're taking it all out on me, huh? Fine, I'll let it slide, considering you're the patient here. Me? I've got a wife, and she manages all the money. Premium fruit baskets need her approval, and she said no. Even this ordinary fruit basket used up my entire monthly allowance."Westley, hearing the word "wife" repeated so many times, wanted to shove a dirty sock in Frank's mouth.‘Oh, so having a wife makes you all high and mighty?’It was as

    Frank wasn't polite about it. "Even though it was my wife helping Jane worry less that led to this outcome, she still put in effort. So, consider this a favor you owe. If my wife ever faces any difficulties, you must help."‘Do they see me as a wishing well or something?’One after another, people would toss him a coin and expect him to grant a big favor in return.But since the words had already been spoken, there was no way to take them back.In any case, he did receive some very useful information."Fine."Frank left, satisfied.Once he got into the car heading to the airport, he sent a message to Charlotte, asking for a reward.After a long while, a photo came through from her.The moment Frank saw it, he felt a rush of heat coursing through his entire body."Frank..."From the front seat, Alan glanced back through the rearview mirror and was stunned. "Your nose is bleeding! We're still near the Greyson family's hospital. Should we stop and check?"Frank calmly grabbed

    She noticed the blanket on him had mostly fallen off, so she tiptoed over to cover him.Suddenly, her wrist was grabbed.She found herself staring into Oliver's dreamy yet deeply affectionate eyes."Jordy, only in my dreams do I dare to tell you that I like you..."Buzz buzz—The sudden vibration, like an alarm, jolted Oliver awake instantly.He abruptly withdrew his hand.Rubbing his eyes, he sat up, and upon seeing Jordan's slightly dazed expression, a flash of regret crossed his face."Sorry, I thought I was dreaming."Jordan, slow to react, stood up. She felt something was off but instinctively chose not to ask further."Oliver, your phone—it seems like it's urgent."Oliver immediately picked up his phone and walked toward the French window to answer.Jordan went to pour herself some water. After drinking it, she suddenly grasped what had felt off earlier.She remembered Westley's hostility toward Oliver.Initially, she thought it was just Westley's possessiveness and

    "You claimed to be fair, only trusted your own investigation results, not just believing hearsay, didn't you?"What he said was actually in line with what she had hoped for.It was also a beautiful wish of hers.But in this world, many things were not absolutely fair.Her job was to serve the people and provide justice to the best of her ability.However, she would never trust what anyone else said, she needed to look into things herself, and only after solid evidence would she act.Whitney could tell that he wasn't complimenting her, but mocking her, which made her feel somewhat ashamed."As for your situation, I've been biased from the start."Mainly because, she didn't plan on getting involved with Caleb.She didn't need to stand up for him.She had no interest in what kind of person Caleb was.So, she never thought that those rumors about him would become the trigger for him being angry with her."Sorry."Caleb seemed to have realized what she was thinking earlier.He

    "I think this is a good start," she told Charlotte.They were together, and Charlotte sat close to her, looking at her phone."It’s a good thing that she’s being sincere to us, but the most important thing is that you need to trade sincerity with Caleb."Jane pondered for a moment. "Then how should I reply?""Let her ask Caleb directly."Jane nodded. "I still don't really understand why he's like this, you should just ask him directly, communication between the two of you is still important."Whitney stared at the reply for a long time, then looked at Caleb.It seemed like he was really asleep, there was no movement from him.She wondered if it was not good to wake him up?Maybe she should wait until he woke up?Caleb hadn't actually fallen asleep, there was a pressure building in his chest, how could he sleep?He wasn’t really a generous person.So he saw Whitney holding her phone and looking at him.In the end, he compromised.She didn't even know why he was mad at her.

    He took out a small cushion and placed it on the table, then told her, "Put your hand here."Whitney did as instructed.Tanner began to check her pulse, her expression slightly solemn."Your health is so poor?"Tanner opened a cabinet, took out two small bottles, one green and one milky white."The green one, take two pills every day, after breakfast and dinner. The milky white one, take three times a day, before meals.""After finishing them, come back for a check-up."She took out her phone. "Add me on WhatsApp."Whitney quickly took out her phone and added Tanner on WhatsApp."If you feel uncomfortable, just send me a message, I'll reply."Whitney obediently nodded.Tanner smiled. "You're really cute."Caleb crossed his arms, smiling in a half-amused way. "I really suspect you like women."Tanner remained indifferent, firing back, "If I liked women, would your wife be willing to give me a chance?""Dream on." Caleb grabbed Whitney and they left.It was said that Tanne

    He didn't let her say a word, but when he exhausted her to the point of collapse, he made her call him "honey."She stayed silent, and he tormented her.In the end, she had no choice but to reluctantly utter the words."H-honey..."Westley was satisfied, knowing there would be plenty of chances in the future for her to call him that.Whitney went to the hotel, changed out of her dress, removed her makeup, and washed up. She then changed into more comfortable clothes and started packing her luggage.But she was stopped by Caleb."We’re not heading back yet.""What?"Caleb grabbed her arm, pulling her up, and they directly headed out.Whitney figured he had plans and didn't ask further.Once they were in the car, Caleb explained, "Tanner is in Nelana. She's not easy to approach. After you've seen her, we'll head back."Whitney didn't say anything, mainly because she didn't have much say in the matter.She could focus on recovering her health.After all, she needed to be hea

    "What are you doing?"Jordan was both angry and anxious, her face completely red.Westley smiled. "What do you think?""Stop messing around! We still need to go toast the guests.""Exactly." The man pinched the satin ribbon behind her back. "How can you wear the toasting dress if you don't take off the wedding dress?"The wedding dress was too heavy, and with him pressing on her, Jordan couldn't break free."You want to do it yourself, but you can’t."In the end, Jordan was stripped down to just her undergarments and was forcibly changed into the toasting dress.Seizing the right moment, she immediately broke free from Westley and opened the door, about to run out.Westley quickly grabbed her and carried her back. "Your makeup is ruined."‘Whose fault is it that my makeup is ruined?’Jordan stomped hard on his foot. "You’re so annoying!""Already annoyed right after the wedding?" Westley sat her down on the edge of the bed, opened the makeup bag, and took out a lipstick. "I

    Westley had someone distribute the wedding sweets. He carried Jordan into the hotel and delivered her to the bridal rest room.Jane and the others had already been waiting."So, what's up, Westley? As your sister-in-law, I took your big envelope, and I didn't make things difficult for you, did I?"What could Westley say? "Thank you, Jane.""Jordy's wedding shoes?"Jane and Charlotte each handed him one of the shoes.Westley crouched down and carefully put them on Jordan."I'm going to be busy up front, I'll wait for you."Jordan nodded. "Okay."After Westley left, Jane and Charlotte helped her change into the wedding dress.Whitney also helped.Caleb brought her to the wedding venue, and while they were waiting in the rest room, Jane explained to her.The reason they arrived here first was that everything had been arranged in advance, and it was intentionally done this way.She actually found it quite interesting."Whit." Jane patted her shoulder. "This is a good way to

    Even the foundation couldn't hide the pink flush spreading on her cheeks.Jordan knew she was rather introverted, and without Jane and Charlotte there to back her up, this felt like hell to her."Westley!""Yes!"Jordan was amused by him and forgot what she was about to say.Westley stepped forward, kneeling on one knee, preparing to go through the motions.Whitney quickly tried to stop him, but was pulled away by Caleb."This won't do..." She struggled, but couldn't fight against the man's strength.Only Jordan and Westley were left in the bedroom.The man kneeled beside the bed and handed her the bouquet. "Dear Mrs. Howard, please come home with me."Jordan took the bouquet, revealing her small feet from under the large skirt."I don't have shoes on."Westley asked, "How can I find your shoes?""You're asking me?""Yes.""Well, I can't tell you."Westley knew it wasn't going to be that easy.Even if Jane and Charlotte were kept busy, with their family status, how cou

    "They're here, they're here," Charlotte called out, urging Whitney to quickly close the bedroom door.Whitney said, "Jane hasn't come in yet.""If she's slower than Westley, it means she's caught up in something," replied Charlotte."But isn’t Zachary afraid of angering Jane by helping Westley like this?"Charlotte smiled. "This is a wedding. Blocking the door is just for fun. We won’t really make it hard for the groom to take the bride away."Whitney only then realized what they were doing. "Sorry.""It's fine, you've never had a wedding, so it's normal," Charlotte reassured her."So, what should I do now?"Charlotte said, "Just cooperate with me.""Don't be too formal, it's not a big deal."At that moment, Westley knocked on the door. "What does Mrs. Smith want? Feel free to name your price."Charlotte laughed. "Mr. Howard always reads people well and is full of schemes. Why don't you try guessing?"Frank had already come over, but he looked lazy and still had no energy.

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1438

    Westley seemed not to hear Zachary's words and asked him if his clothes were alright and whether his tie was crooked.Zachary couldn't be bothered to respond.Frank didn't even bother to lift his eyelids.At that moment, Caleb stepped forward and adjusted Westley's tie and collar, smiling faintly.Westley understood. "Carter will come to the wedding. I'm certain of it."Caleb then asked, "With the relationship between Mr. Greyson and Mr. Howard, why isn't he coming as a groomsman?""He doesn't get along well with my wife.""Because of Mandy?"Westley nodded. "Mandy and my wife were good friends during their teenage years."Actually, Jordan wasn't someone who held grudges, but he couldn't let anything go wrong at the wedding.Originally, it didn't matter whether Carter came or not.If it weren't for Caleb, he wouldn't have insisted on having Carter attend.Caleb understood.The sky gradually brightened.Whitney stood at the door, waiting for news from Jane.Suddenly, some
