Chapter 1127

Author: Lean
“But didn’t you say you acknowledged him as an uncle?” Jordan asked in confusion.

“Sigh.” Jane waved her hand dismissively. “That was just to prevent him from maintaining a marital relationship with you. At the time, I didn’t know you were already divorced. Since you two are truly divorced, there’s no need for any connection.”

Jordan caught the key point. “The divorce certificate is real?”

“Not only that, but your divorce status is also officially recorded. According to the Civil Affairs Bureau, you are now legally divorced.”

Jordan should have been happy, but suddenly, she felt an inexplicable discomfort in her heart.

She couldn’t quite put her finger on what that feeling was.

Pressing her lips together, she said, “It’s good that it’s real.”

The dishes were served one after another. Jane placed some food onto Jordan’s plate. “So, you don’t have to dwell on what happened at the black market last night. Everything is settled.”

Settled.

It was good that things were settled.

    "Good.""Alright, eat well."In the car, Zachary was still checking his watch every second.He keenly noticed that Jordan had been looking at his car for quite a while.She had noticed him, so Jane couldn't have missed it either.It must have been an act.Unable to hold back, he sent a message back.Jane replied, "Did you finish seeing Westley?"Zachary immediately understood why she had been so warm and enthusiastic yesterday, but was much colder today.It was mostly because of Westley and Jordan’s situation.It was still connected in some way.He typed. "I didn’t see him. I asked about the bodyguards and then came over."Jane sent a nodding emoji.Zachary waited for a while but didn’t see any new messages from her.He had quit smoking, and when he was feeling impatient, he chewed on mint candy.The sound of him biting the mint candy felt like he was chewing on bones.It sent a chill down the driver’s spine."Sir, please don't do anything impulsive.""I won’t."Zach

    Carter was smarter, but he didn’t ask any questions. He directly sent the medical records.Jane forwarded them to Tanner.Zachary cocked his brows slightly.He was surprised that Tanner even had WhatsApp.The father of the child hadn’t even added her on WhatsApp."I see it," said Tanner, finishing her joke. "I can do acupuncture to treat it, but I’m not that magical. Actually, Carter has a better treatment method."Tanner knew that Carter had set this up, still knowing that Jane could contact her."I’ll be on the plane back after I’m done here, but before that, you can try asking Carter if he wants to save him."Jane knew the Greyson family’s secrets.After agreeing, she hung up the phone.She turned to look at Zachary, who was drinking soup."Is there something you want to tell me?"Zachary put down his soup bowl, took a napkin to wipe his mouth, and then said, "I do want Westley to recover quickly, but I didn’t deceive you into making the call. And Carter not treating him

    "Otherwise, after you described Westley's condition, Tanner would be able to deduce the illness without needing the medical record."Zachary continued, "She was also giving Carter a signal, showing that she saw through his scheme. Westley sending me a message means it's already settled. You and Tanner should interact as usual, she's always been considerate toward women."However, Jane couldn't agree.Even though Tanner was considerate to women and their relationship was good now, that was a separate matter.And because they were friends, she believed it was even more important not to become an accomplice.She sent a message apologizing to Tanner.Then, she turned to Zachary and said, "I'm angry now, and I've decided to punish you. I’m ignoring you for three days."Zachary quickly tried to defend himself. "I just didn't want Westley to use his injury to threaten Jordan, so I wanted him to get treated quickly, which is why I asked you to contact Tanner."Jane scoffed, "But you kn

    "Come to Jeswood. You can bring Grandpa along, I'll make the arrangements."In Nelana, where it was Westley's territory, if something happened, she wouldn't know how to handle it.Jordan originally planned to do this.Before, she hadn't known that Jane was her biological sister.Now that she knew, she wanted to be with the only family member she had in the world."I'll fly back later, and I have an assistant to settle as well.""Alright."Jane immediately asked the taxi to head to the airport.She sent Jordan into the security check and planned to find a hotel to stay for a couple of days.But as she turned, she bumped into a man’s chest.Before she could react, she was picked up.She was quickly and forcefully pushed into a car.In her ears, the man's voice, deep and slightly aggrieved, came through."You can ignore me, you can give me the cold shoulder, but you can't not go home."‘Wouldn’t you still be anxious even if I was at home?’ thought Jane.Jane's eyes shifted,

    Especially the ones she never used to like, she always wanted to try them.Jane's pregnancy was progressing smoothly, but the reactions were probably even stronger."I'll have Alan send them over. He’s meticulous, so Zachary won’t find out. But I won’t buy too much, just a little to show my intentions.""Love you! Xxx."To avoid Frank leaking any information, Charlotte said goodbye and went to work her charms.Jane scrolled through her phone and waited.Just as she was starting to feel drowsy, there was a knock at the door.The knock was rhythmic.She thought it was Alan, so she quickly opened the door.But she didn’t see his face.Looking down, she saw a little boy."You’re not my mom."The little boy frowned. "But why are you in Room 6001?"Jane looked at him, puzzled."Little one, you’ve gone to the wrong room. This is the ninth floor.""It’s impossible, I pressed the button for the sixth floor, I couldn’t have made a mistake."With a click, the door across the hallw

    In his eyes, there was a flicker of a smile.Jordan was annoyed by his gaze.But she also knew that the more she ignored Westley, the more persistent he became."What I said at the hospital wasn’t what I meant."After a brief silence, Westley spoke again to explain."I admit, my way of handling things was clumsy. I shouldn't have used the filming excuse to get you to leave. But at that time, I really didn’t want you to see me in such a sorry state. I care about my image, and I deserve the way you treat me."Jordan put on her headphones.Westley was rendered speechless.It was really difficult.He had wanted to fix their relationship, to apologize properly and make up for his past mistakes.But he kept messing up.He kept pushing her away.Now, their marriage was really over.And the injury issue didn’t ease the tension—it only made things worse."Young man, your apology lacks sincerity. No wonder the young lady doesn’t forgive you," the driver said, unable to watch any lo

    Jordan got directly out of the car and walked away.She hadn't actually turned on the headphones, so she had heard the entire conversation between Westley and the driver.It wasn't really surprising to her.Westley was that kind of person.He could understand care, he could understand romance, he could understand anything that received positive feedback.But when it came to apologizing...He had been at the top since birth, always looking down on the world from the summit.The word "apology" did not exist in his vocabulary.The moment he said "sorry," she was shocked.Seeing his humility, his pleading, and his regret.But she hadn't been swayed.Because that was just a tactic for him, not a genuine realization of his mistake.Westley didn’t know that, during the time it took for him to pay, Jordan had thought about all of this.Right now, his mind was filled with the driver’s words.It seemed that, all along, he hadn’t really apologized sincerely.Anyone could just say a

    But Jordan did not call the police.As she hung up the phone, several tall, strong men entered.Jax also came in, standing in front of him to protect him.The men did not do anything to Westley, but the leader spoke first. "Mr. Howard, you'd better let go. We only take orders from Ms. Hickey. If you insist on holding onto her, then we will have to use force."Westley glanced at the "Collins" insignia on his chest, and cursed Zachary inwardly.Zachary, in the hotel, sneezed several times.He felt innocent and sad.Jordan looked at the time, it was too late.She did not want to waste any more time here."Do it."The men from the Collins family had no choice but to act.They forcibly moved Westley's hand off Jordan.But Westley was no pushover. On his own turf, he couldn't let anyone humiliate him.Soon, the two sides were entangled.Jordan saw her side was losing and was trying to figure out a way.Suddenly, she was lifted off the ground.The scene before her reversed.S

    Jordan and Whitney chatted casually.Most of the time, it was Jordan doing the talking while Whitney listened.After covering enough about the wedding, they talked about Jordan's work over the past few years.She also mentioned the tangled feelings and past with Westley.When she got to that part, she grew a little curious. "Whitney, before you married Caleb, did you ever like anyone?"Whitney shook her head."What about a secret crush?""Not even that."Whitney rarely talked to others about her past.Zachary only knew because he had looked into her and thought she was perfectly suited to be a pawn.And she had needed to become that pawn—to completely sever ties with her past, achieve her goals, and fulfill her ambitions."I was too busy studying and working to think about anything else."Jordan sensed she didn't want to go further, so she didn't press.Just then, Jane called, saying she and Charlotte would arrive soon and join them for lunch.She relayed the message to W

    "We had a meal together before, and I noticed you always seemed to like sweet dishes, so I tried buying some. I was worried it might not suit your taste.""It does, it does." Jordan took a bite of the pudding. "It's delicious. But did you buy anything you like to eat?"Whitney said, "I already had breakfast. I can't eat anymore."Jordan offered a suggestion, "Why not try a bite of this sponge cake? It's a specialty here in Nelana."Whitney really couldn't eat any more. She had a small appetite, a condition built up over the years.If she ate a full meal, she couldn't eat snacks afterward. And if she ate snacks, she would lose her appetite for meals.She had a small stomach.But seeing Jordan looking at her so expectantly, she still picked up a piece of sponge cake and took a bite."It's very good."Jordan smiled and took a big bite of the sponge cake herself."Whitney, you're so good at picking food! This is great!"The old house was a bit remote, but it had a rooftop terrac

    Jordan said Whitney would be coming over later.Westley hadn't expected that the first one to get out of bed would actually be Whitney."Just the two of you?" he asked."For now, yes."Jordan glanced at her phone. In the group chat, it was just her and Whitney talking—no response yet from Jane or Charlotte.She more or less knew why Jane hadn't responded, but Charlotte too?Still, it didn't really matter. There weren't any specific plans for today anyway.She hadn't known Whitney was coming, so it was a nice surprise."Maybe my sister will text me around noon. We can decide what to do then.""You." She pointed at Westley. "You are not allowed to show up in front of me again after breakfast."Westley nodded. "Got it."After buying food, Whitney told Caleb, "I'm going to find Jordan. You can go handle your stuff. I'll be staying at her place until the wedding."Caleb leaned against the elevator wall, his voice low and lazy. "You're telling me what to do?"Whitney wasn't in a

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1427

    She replied with an emoji, then looked for her girls in the group chat to ask them out for food.Their group chat had a new member now—Whitney.And it was Whitney who replied to her."I'm already eating at the hotel. Do you want to come over, or should I bring something to you later?"Whitney had actually had a good night's sleep.Though it was a bit later than her usual habit, she still managed to get up for breakfast.Before, it was always Caleb who brought breakfast to the bedside and fed her, because she simply couldn't get out of bed.Jordan figured she was probably having breakfast with Caleb and decided not to bother her."No need, I'll just eat something nearby. Your hotel isn't close to me."Whitney replied. "I'm heading over later anyway, but I'll probably be a bit late. If you're hungry, go ahead and eat something first. I'll bring you something else."Jordan. "Thanks."Whitney. "No problem."Caleb noticed her holding her phone, her expression much softer, even t

    Caleb was thinking that in the future, he could let her drink a little more.Of course, only when he was around.She looked kind of cute like this."I did say that, but didn't you just say you wanted to thank me?"Whitney felt that alcohol really wasn't a good thing.Even when hanging out with Jane and the others, she decided not to drink too much anymore.The rationality and logic that she was so proud of had completely vanished.She had never been as calm in front of Caleb as she was with others.Besides, there was a power imbalance between her and him.If she were sober, she wouldn't have been able to reject him anyway.Let alone now, when her mind was muddled.But maybe because she was muddled, she dared to say things that she didn’t usually dare to say."I just lost my balance earlier, and you helped me. Even if you don't accept verbal gratitude, that doesn't mean I owe you something this big."Caleb saw she could barely stand, so he held her by the waist to keep her

    "But your reaction just now didn’t seem like you knew I was here."Jane tried to pull her leg back, but when she couldn't, she slapped him in frustration."It was called acting, understand? I didn't want you to look embarrassed, so I got those two out of the way first."Zachary rubbed her ankle with his thumb, as if he believed her. "Then should I be thanking you—for being so considerate?"Jane couldn't be bothered to argue. "Let go. I want to drink.""I'll drink with you."Meanwhile, Frank held Charlotte close and asked in a low voice, "Did she really know we were here?"Charlotte nodded. "What do you think? You really think Jane would mess around during her marriage? She might be bold, but she has boundaries. But you guys really are annoying."Frank hooked her chin with his thumb. "I knew it. You're being cold to me because you're sick of me. I've said it so many times, and you still wouldn't admit it."After saying that, he picked her up and walked out of the bar.He hadn'

    Charlotte nudged him with her elbow, warning him not to stir things up.Jordan truly didn't dare to stay any longer. "Westley, take me home.""Okay." Westley finally got up. "You all take your time. If it gets too late, don't go back to the old house—just find a place to crash.""But..." Jordan suddenly felt like leaving wasn't such a good idea. "Maybe I'll stay and play a bit more."Westley simply dragged her out."Jane and Zachary...""You can't control what they do, so why bother worrying over nothing?"Jordan was settled into the passenger seat, her seatbelt fastened firmly.She didn't resist, mostly because she felt what Westley said made sense.Jane was way more capable than she was. This kind of minor drama would be easy for her to handle.Plus, with the smart and composed Charlotte around—It was better if she didn't add to the chaos.Once Westley got into the driver's seat, she asked, "Why did you guys show up? Especially you—didn't you say no seeing each other a w

    But it was just a polite gesture—if they had been singing inside, they wouldn't have heard her anyway.So after knocking, she pushed the door open and went in.Charlotte and the others followed to take a look.When they saw the scene inside, they gasped.The four men from home were sitting around a cards table, all eyes on the door, each with a different expression.Zachary looked at Jane, who entered first, and said with a smile, "Honey, pick someone you like and give him a kiss."Jane took a step back and bumped into Charlotte's arms.That was when she noticed the big screen beside them—it was showing their own private room."You were watching us?"Zachary tapped the cards on the table with his long fingers, still smiling."If we weren't watching, how would we get to enjoy such an entertaining scene?"They had all been drinking.Whitney didn't hold her liquor well. She was already a little dazed. Although the room was fairly bright, everything seemed a little off to her.

    Caleb didn't respond. Instead, he looked at Westley and played a card.Westley won.And it was a big pot as well.He cocked his brows. "Is this your wedding gift to me, Caleb?"Caleb asked, "Your wedding—Dr. Greyson won't be absent, will he? I heard you two are very close. You've been at death's door multiple times, and he's the one who saved you."Westley nodded. "Theoretically, yes. But I'm not sure if he might have some emergency.""Besides, it's not like you, Caleb, can't reach him. You helped him last time. It's impossible he'd ignore you now."Caleb could contact Carter, but if he did, it would mean helping Carter meet Mandy.He had no interest in meddling in romantic matters—too troublesome.But he couldn't get in touch with Tanner at all.Technically, there was no real need for him to attend Westley's wedding.Even if Whitney was invited by Jane, he himself wasn't obligated.He simply wanted to go, hoping to "accidentally" run into Carter.That way, it wouldn't loo
