Frank replied, "Mr. Smith says that he won’t help."Then he hung up the phone.Leanne was rendered speechless.Charlotte was also speechless. She reached out to grab the phone."Didn't you say you couldn't speak?"Frank allowed her to take the phone and hugged her from behind as she sent a message to Leanne."They’re not deliberately not helping you. Their point is that they want you to figure it out yourself, to become stronger. If you keep relying on others, you’ll never be able to hold the position of the head of the Howard family."Frank kissed her neck and laughed, saying, "You really know how to comfort someone."Charlotte nudged him with her shoulder.Frank rested his chin on her shoulder and moved with her, up and down.He chuckled. "The head of the Howard family isn’t like that little media company she runs. It doesn’t have to be so gentle. She needs to understand how many strokes the word 'cruel' has."Charlotte had a question. "Even if Westley gets better, he stil

"Do you mean, give up?"Zachary replied indifferently, "Shouldn't I give up?"Carter rarely managed to pull a smile, but it was extremely cold."Advising others to give up, then why did you... not give up on her?"Zachary followed Carter's gaze and looked into the car.Jane was sitting upright, but clearly eavesdropping.With a smile in his eyes, he looked at her, but his words were aimed at Carter."I’m different from you guys, she loves me."Jane shot him a glare.Zachary didn't waste more time and bent down to get into the car.The car drove out of the hospital's underground car park.Jane looked through the rearview mirror and noticed that Carter was still standing in the same spot.All this time, her impression of Carter was that he was cold, ruthless, and quiet.He didn't seem like a doctor, but his medical skills were impressive, healing one patient after another.But at this moment, all she saw in him was desolation.She asked Zachary, "Is Carter’s love life this

"I only know this much."Jane handed the snacks to Jordan again.Zachary chuckled softly. "You really love gossip.""Of course."Seeing her admit it directly, with such a proud look, Zachary’s smile softened with affection.Jordan felt like she should have been under the car."Go ahead," Jane urged her.Jordan continued, "Once he knew Mandy wasn't his biological sister, Carter's feelings became obvious, but Mandy couldn’t accept it. Plus, Mandy Greyson was always targeting her, and Carter protected her fiercely. For her, he didn’t even care about his biological sister.""Mandy Morris didn’t want to cause a rift between the siblings because of her, and she really had monopolized Mandy Greyson’s good days for over a decade. When Mandy Greyson finally managed to escape the mountains and had suffered a lot. Therefore, Mandy Morris left the Greyson family."Jane didn’t understand. "How is what you’re saying related to their feelings? Is that why Mandy could hate Carter so much?"J

"What the f..."Jane held back the urge to curse.In the end, she didn’t say anything.Because whatever she said would certainly not sound nice.She had to consider the baby’s well-being.Jordan noticed that Jane was upset and didn’t continue the topic.Zachary had expected this and held her gently, soothing her."So, I’m not helping him. What he did was wrong? I’m well-behaved, aren’t I?"Jane sighed softly. "When I ignored you before, didn’t you also forcefully pursue me?""It’s different." Zachary rubbed against her neck. "I knew you had feelings for me."Jane pushed him. "Get off, I’m trying to be angry here."Zachary eased up a little but still held onto her."Don’t be upset. What do you want to eat? I’ll go buy it for you.""I’m not eating."Jane wasn’t in the mood to eat.She wouldn’t let someone else’s issues cause a conflict between her and Zachary.But she just felt uneasy."Jane, here’s some candy for you."Jordan reached over from the front seat. "You told

It was nothing more than him giving Jane an explanation by sending Westley abroad.And Westley knew that he had been too harsh with Jordan this time, so he went to reflect on what he had done.After landing, Charlotte came to pick them up.Jasmine blended in quickly, and the four girls immediately made plans to have a meal together.Frank and Zachary walked behind. The former's steps were lazy.Frank asked Zachary, "Did Carter ask you for help?"Zachary asked in return, "Did he ask you as well?"Frank clicked his tongue. "Last time, my wife made clothes for Mrs. Scholfield, and she really liked them. She has a very good relationship with the eldest daughter-in-law of the Hilton family.""You could say, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Hilton family is Mrs. Scholfield's little fan. She listens to and supports whatever Mrs. Scholfield says.""Since it didn't work on you, she's trying to make moves through me."Zachary's voice remained steady. "I advise you not to get involved.

Jane asked Jasmine, "How do you play this game? I want to try it too.""They say that looking at handsome men more often will result in having handsome children. That way, my son will be worthy of becoming Charlotte's son-in-law."Jasmine loved sharing this kind of fun with others, but Jordan secretly poked her.Jordan knew the tempers of Zachary and Frank.Even if it was just men in an otome game, her sister and Charlotte couldn't look at them too much.Since Jasmine was her assistant, she had to protect her."You can play this game by yourself. My sister doesn't need it. My brother-in-law is so handsome, and my sister is so beautiful. Their children will definitely be better looking than these game models."Jordan had already hinted crazily, blinking so much that her eyes were about to wear out."Oh my!" Jordan exaggerated her actions. "My eyes feel so uncomfortable today."Jane and Charlotte exchanged glances and burst into laughter.Jane turned to Charlotte and said, "Isn

"Besides, I didn't even download that game."She hadn't even seen clearly what it was.Zachary rested his chin on her shoulder, his nose brushing against her neck as he took in her scent.His deep, attractive voice carried a hint of grievance. "I feel like you've been upset with me lately, acting cold and distant. And now, seeing how you wanted to look at other men today, I suppose you're tired of me, huh? You were even reminiscing about the past. So, I robbed you of the chance to enjoy being surrounded by admirers, is that it? Honey, am I not good enough for you? You're actually thinking about other men?""Huh?" Jane was so amused she laughed. "Maybe you should go get your brain checked at the hospital."Zachary hummed in agreement. "I probably should. If they scan it, I'm sure it'll just be filled with your name—completely love-struck."Jane burst out laughing. She turned her head and kissed his thin lips.Zachary took the opportunity to deepen the kiss.The driver silently r

When Jordan landed, she received a message from Yasmin.Yasmin informed her that someone had been arranged to pick her up and sent her the contact details.She was instructed to reach out after leaving the airport and head straight to the film site."Okay."After replying, Jordan called the contact.Following the directions given, she quickly found the person."Ms. Hickey."The man opened the car door and introduced himself, "I'm Mr. Hall's assistant. Just call me Lewis."Jordan found the name somewhat familiar.Meanwhile, Jasmine grabbed her arm excitedly."It's Michael Hall! I'm a huge fan of his! He's one of the men in that game I play! They modeled one of the characters after his face—he's so handsome!"Jordan had heard of Michael Hall before.Because of Jane, there had once been some gossip about him.But work was work—nothing personal.However, the content of this shoot would be displayed on a large screen later.She wasn't sure if it would be shown in Jeswood, but

Jordan hadn't decided yet. "Do you have any particular places you'd like to visit?"Jane said, "Then let's go shopping."She turned to Charlotte. "Can you walk?""I’m fine. If we get tired, we can find a place to sit and rest."Jane then looked at Whitney and asked if she wanted to go.Whitney nodded.The four girls made a quick decision and set off.Ross was eating an apple when he saw them coming out together. He immediately asked, "Mrs. Collins, where are you going? Do you need me to give you a lift?"Jane looked at the car behind him and noticed there were no other cars."Take us to the biggest shopping center.""Okay."The MPV was large, and with just Ross as the driver, it was more than enough for the four of them to sit comfortably."Ma’am, there are yogurts and snacks next to you, all your favorites."Jane glanced at it and said, "Remember to tell Zachary that it’s too late to apologize after making a mistake."Ross would only repeat the exact words to Zachary, an

Ross agreed and turned to leave.Jane kicked the door open with her foot, then stepped onto the balcony, and Whitney quickly came to help.After setting the breakfast down, she noticed something was wrong.Jane and Charlotte exchanged a glance.Jane asked in confusion, "Why are there things in here that neither Charlotte nor I like to eat?""It seems that Zachary and Frank were a bit careless."Whitney quickly said, "I can eat what you don't like."She wasn't picky about food, it was just that she used to not have enough to eat, so she had always eaten less and stayed thin.Jane hadn't heard Ross mention that Caleb had come.She said, "Don't you think Caleb specifically bought this for you?"Whitney was puzzled.Charlotte pointed and said, "The things we like to eat were all prepared by Frank and Zachary. They wouldn't purposely prepare things we don't eat. So, what do you think the extra food is for?"Whitney was momentarily stunned.She thought it was because Jane had or

Whitney washed up and went straight to bed.She didn't have the habit of playing on her phone before bed.Before coming to Nelana, all her work had been handed over.If something urgent came up, someone would call her.So she didn't check her phone, and thus missed Caleb's message.Caleb was on the hotel balcony, with his phone placed on the small coffee table.He held a glass of wine, swaying it absentmindedly.His gaze, however, remained fixed on the phone.But even when it got to dawn, there was no reply from Whitney.The man curved his lips slightly and lit a cigarette.He leaned against the balcony railing, waiting for the sun to rise.Whitney woke up in the morning, went to wash up, and after she finished, took a book from her luggage and went to sit on the swing on the balcony to read.As she passed the kitchen, she made herself a cup of coffee.She didn't like to move much, most of her time was spent on improving herself.She tried to learn as much as possible.S

Westley didn't say anything either.Zachary and Frank were a team, he was no match for them in an argument.His relationship with Caleb wasn't that close, so it was impossible for the latter to help him."They're having barbecue for lunch," said Frank, locking his phone. "They just ordered the ingredients."Jordan found two power strips and moved the pot to the balcony."Good thing we have these, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to eat.""Why do you have so many pots left in this house?" asked Whitney."I lived here for a while before," Jordan placed the plates and cutlery down. "I also feel like leaving these things here makes it seem like Grandpa is still around."Whitney apologized.Jordan smiled and reassured her, "It's fine. No need to apologize. From now on, we're good friends."Whitney nodded and smiled in agreement, "Alright.""By the way, Jordan.""What's up, Jane?"Jane said, "Both Zachary and Frank have booked hotels, so they don’t to stay here. It can't fit them

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
