Chapter 1133

Author: Lean
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

    The moment the kiss fell, Jordan felt the taste of blood.Her lips stung.She wanted to dodge, constantly retreating.The man followed her, securing her between the headboard and his chest.The kiss deepened!When his hot palm landed on her body, Jordan’s eyes widened.Her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.She tried to bite the man, but he easily dodged it.This only resulted in a fiercer assault.Tears began to fall uncontrollably.The kiss, tainted with blood, continued.The man tasted the salty wetness and paused.His eyes were dark, and he pinched her chin, kissing her tears.Yet, the tears flowed endlessly, like a running faucet.Westley moved back slightly, still gazing at her eyes, where desire still churned.But the harshness never left."Jordy, you can hate me, you can keep your distance from me, you can refuse to remarry me, but I can't lose contact with you. So, have a child for me.""You're crazy!" Jordan’s eyes were about to pop out. "Westley, li

    Jordan sat for a long time after she finished using the bathroom.She wiped herself, flushing the toilet.Westley turned and entered, bending down to pick her up.Slap!A slap landed on his face.Jordan's hand was trembling, and her palm instantly turned red.Westley’s face bore not only the slap mark but also bloodstains, showing the intensity of Jordan’s anger and strength.Jordan had probably used all her strength.Westley merely tilted his jaw and carried her back to the bed.Jordan had no strength left to resist.She knew there was no point in fighting back.She couldn't break free from him."Westley, what do you really want?"Westley shook his head. "I don't know...""You do." Jordan exposed him. "You want me to love you again."Westley held her hand, his posture lowered to the minimum. "Can you do that?"Jordan stared at him for a few seconds before asking, "Westley, do you love me?""Yes," Westley affirmed.Jordan snorted coldly, her tone mocking. "Westley, yo

    Westley immediately wrapped Jordan in a blanket.So, he couldn’t avoid Jane's slap.After two slaps, the fingerprints were clearly visible.He didn’t care, reaching out to push Zachary out of the room.Zachary couldn’t see anything but Jane in his eyes.He was too worried.From the moment she received the news, Jane ran to the car, then onto the private plane.It was only a little over two hours of flight, but he was so anxious that his heart stopped several times.After getting off the plane, she rushed over.Now, she was extremely upset."Don’t touch me." He had no good attitude towards Westley anymore.He directly instructed someone to come in and control Westley.Jax also came in with people to protect Westley, but Westley stopped them at the door.Carter stepped ou t of the crowd, walking in with an air of indifference.He swiftly injected Westley with a sedative.Jane ordered everyone to leave the room.Zachary, still worried, wanted to call a caregiver.Jane pus

    Carter closed the medical record book and put the pen in the pocket on his chest.He said indifferently to Zachary, "It's nothing serious. I have the miscarriage prevention medicine from my sister-in-law. It's just temporary bleeding caused by emotional excitement, but it has stopped now. A couple of days of rest will be enough."Jordan felt too guilty to lift her head. "Jane, I... "Jane covered her mouth. "I don’t want to hear those words anymore. Don't blame yourself for everything. When you’re scared, the first person you think of should be me. That’s because we’re sisters.""But...""Have you not eaten anything?" Jane interrupted and looked at Roy. "Go buy something. Something sweet."Roy immediately went to take care of it.Jane patted Jordan's hand. "Once you eat, get some rest. This single-occupancy room has a big bed, and no one will disturb you.""We’ll talk about everything tomorrow."Jordan didn’t know how to apologize or what to say.She was physically and mental

    Leanne nodded, and there was sadness in her eyes.She asked, "Do you know that Westley has already quit his job and handed over the position of the head of the Howard family?"Zachary knew for sure. "You are the first female to take charge of the Howard family."The Howard family didn't practice gender bias.But there had been an old family rule passed down by their ancestors.The leader’s position was passed down to males, not females.The reasoning was that after women married and had children, they would be too concerned about their own family matters, unlike men who could fully focus on the development of the family.Maybe that was why she had cut off all emotions."Have a child soon."When Leanne heard Zachary's words, she didn't insist on taking Westley away anymore.She just spoke up for Westley. "Mr. Collins, you know Westley is sick. Don’t be too hard on him. After all, it was he who hurt my little sister-in-law, and he’s the most upset about it."She had to let Zac

    After Westley woke up, he rushed back to the master bedroom.Inside, there was only a messy bed and scattered chains, but there was no sign of Jordan."Where is Jordan?" he asked Jax.Before Jax could answer, someone else spoke first."Mr. Howard."When Westley saw Roy, he more or less understood."I’ll go see Jordan first."Roy remained respectful. "You can’t see her. Mr. and Mrs. Collins had a quarrel. It’s because of you and the former Mrs. Howard."Westley didn’t say anything in the end and followed Roy out.But when he boarded the plane, he still received a photo from Zachary.Jordan was sleeping relatively well.After saving the photo, he replied. "Thank you."Zachary didn’t reply.In fact, Jordan hadn’t slept well.She kept thinking that Jane was right beside her.She couldn’t let Jane worry anymore, so she forced herself to sleep.When she woke up, she just felt a headache.She tiptoed out of bed, washed up, and went out to buy food.But she ran into Zachary.

    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

    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
