"So, you're afraid that the truth about his mother's death would upset him again?""Yes." Albert nodded. "The psychologist suggested taking it slow, waiting until Mr. Frost's condition improves.""Got it."I replied calmly, not feeling any other emotions. In fact, if it weren't for Grandfather's dying instructions, I wouldn't even want to deal with the Frost family's affairs.However, when I returned home and thought about Ryan's plight, I couldn't help but feel a trace of... pity.But soon, remembering how he had shouted at me in the ward, that pitiful trace of pity vanished completely.I suddenly hated myself a bit, hated that I was always unable to come up with a foolproof plan.Lying bored on the sofa, Jane suddenly arrived.I opened the door. "Why didn't you just use your fingerprint to get in?""I was afraid I might see something I shouldn't."Jane twisted her slender waist, entered gracefully, kicked off her heels, slipped into her own pair of house slippers, glanced a

"That really does look like them!"Following my gaze, Jane also saw the resemblance and got excited. "Let's go!"She unbuckled her seatbelt and quickly got out of the car.I followed closely behind as we rushed into the hotel lobby.But where were they?We had to approach the hotel receptionist. Jane softened her voice, "Miss, the man and woman who just entered, are they significantly different in age?"Jane was pretty and smiled disarmingly, making people let their guard down easily.One of the younger receptionists fell into her trap. "They seem quite different in age...""Different how? Your head looks a little different to me."The more experienced receptionist cut her off. She looked over and said, "I'm sorry, but we can't disclose any information about our guests.""That old man looks like my dad!"Jane's mind raced, tears in her eyes as she continued passionately, "My mom helped him to start his business from nothing, endured so much hardship, and now that he's made s

"It seems that Ryan, after all the trouble, is protecting his second stepmother?""Compared to him," I pursed my lips. "what I'm more curious about is how Lauren would react if this thing is true."Today at the hospital, she was still working so hard to defend her daughter.If she knew that her daughter had climbed into her husband's bed during these years she was unconscious...The showdown between mother and daughter should be quite spectacular.Jane glanced at me, saying, "What are you thinking? It's like you're planning something unethical."I smirked. "I'm thinking about when I can catch the live action of the piston in motion."Jane cocked her brows. "I didn't expect you, Charlotte, to be into such unique stuff.""Pushed into it."‘Jessica, this time, I will definitely hit the mark,’ I thought.At this hour, the nightlife at the bar had just begun, with loud music pounding the eardrums, and couples dancing intimately in the dance floor. It felt like like stepping into a

I jumped as I turned around to meet a pair of sparkling amber eyes, unconsciously patting my chest. "Jack, you scared me!""Sorry." He chuckled softly, his lips curling. "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation. I just happened to pass by."I smiled indifferently. "Are you here for business or with friends?""Friends."Jack's voice was warm, but when he looked at Jane, there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes. I naturally knew who his "friends" were. Jane also saw through it in a glance. "You guys talk. I'm going to dance."As soon as she entered the bar, she took off her coat, revealing a black silk strap dress that exposed her beautiful collarbones. Stepping onto the dance floor, she immediately drew many gazes. Her dancing was captivating.I watched Jack sit down before asking, "Is your injury okay? You probably shouldn't drink.""The injury's nothing serious, just looks scary." He shook his head casually, his eyes lightly amused. "I haven't been drinking, just

On the way back, Jack controlled the steering wheel, glancing at me. "Are you still worried about Jane?""No." I shook my head. "She can handle these things herself."Jane weighs everything she does on a scale in her heart. I believe she has the ability to withdraw in time."Yeah." Jack responded lightly. "As for the matter with MS, what have you decided?""Jack, thank you for your kindness."After thanking him, I explained, "I can't go to MS at the moment. A lot has happened recently, and I think I need to take a break first."Once the matters that need to be resolved are settled peacefully, then I'll be able to work with peace of mind. Jack didn't mind at all, just chuckled softly. "So it seems like we can’t be colleagues.""Huh?" I didn't understand. Jack's eyes were dark, his thin lips tinged with an imperceptible gentleness. "Some things have to be resolved in advance, so I'm going back to the Renolds family soon.""Back to the Renolds family?" I was somewhat surprised. Fr

I was astonished by his confidence. Yes, I didn't deny that I used to like him a lot, but why did he think I would stand still and wait for him. Why would I choose him forever?My wrist twisted in his grip, but I couldn't break free. I said slowly and deliberately, "I don't want to. Ryan, let go!"The light from above cast shadows over his head, deepening the hollows of his eyes. His voice turned cold as frost. "Very well, you really have some backbone."However, in the next moment, he effortlessly pushed me into the car and slammed the door shut with a loud bang. Ignoring my attempt to open it, he pressed the door tightly shut.Outside the car, two men over 6 feet tall exuded a tense atmosphere, like a spark ready to ignite gunpowder.I feared they would start fighting again, but I didn't know what Ryan said—just a few words—and Jack ceased his hostility. He seemed tinged with resignation and restraint.Ryan pulled open the car door and shoved me inside. As I got in, I heard Jac

In the end, it was the Renolds family's fault for mistreating him and his mother. He was just taking back what rightfully belonged to him.I looked at Ryan. "Besides, even if he's not simple as he seems and I fell into his trap, it still has nothing to do with you.""You have everything to do with me as long as I haven’t received our divorce certificate yet/"He seemed to chuckle in exasperation, tongue touching his cheek. "Charlotte, don't think about cheating on me."With that said, he instructed the driver in a calm voice, "Drive! Back to the Frost family's residence!"I was dumbfounded, staring at him with wide eyes. "What are you trying to do?""Until you bring me the divorce certificate, don't think about meeting Jack privately again!"Hearing his tone that brooked no argument, I almost went mad with anger, struggling desperately. "You have no right to interfere with my life!"He remained unmoved. "I do because I’m still your husband!"I took a deep breath, speaking with

I had to admit, power was really something.With just a few words from him, I suddenly knew clearly that I couldn't escape. As long as he gave the order, bodyguards would form a human wall in front of me, making it impossible for me to move.I pursed my lips and decided to turn around, walking past him with a cold face and heading straight back to the room. I locked the door behind me without hesitation.Fine, he could just keep me locked up here. I had nothing to do anyway. The Frost family's residence had no shortage of food or drink, and there were people to serve me. At most, I would wait out the cooling-off period for the divorce, and then I would be free.Our room still maintained its original state. The servants knew that Ryan didn't like anyone touching his things, so when they cleaned, they only did basic dusting and floor mopping without moving anything. My slippers, skincare products, bedside reading materials, hair ties, and various personal items were all still in thei

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

Frank pulled her into his arms and asked, "You really have to go out for drinks?"Charlotte nodded. "It's a girls-only night. No men allowed.""Oh?" The man repeated slowly and deliberately, "No… men… allowed?"Charlotte saw the look on his face and knew exactly what he was thinking."Only women. Even the drinks are for women.""Oh? Tell me, how do you tell if a drink is male or female?"Charlotte lightly patted his face twice. "The drinks women drink are for women. Got it?"Frank laughed. "Got it."Over on Jane's end, after finishing her call, she was about to go look for Jordan, but Zachary pulled her into the room and pinned her against the wall.His warm lips covered hers, then quickly pulled away.With his forehead against hers, the man asked, "Going out for drinks?"Jane hooked his chin with her finger. "What, Mr. Collins, trying to seduce your way into a drinking invitation?"Zachary chuckled lowly, kissed her again, and asked, "May I?""No."Jane rejected him comp

Jordan had grown up in the Howard family, but the person who had taken care of her since she was little had an old house.She arranged for Jane and the others to stay there, and she would also be getting married from that house.She didn't have many friends. Originally, Leanne was supposed to be her bridesmaid. Although she had a child, she had never been married.But Leanne wasn't sure if she could make it back in time, so she let Jane and Charlotte take over as substitutes for now. They would adjust accordingly later."Try on the dress. If there's a problem, I can still make adjustments."With the help of the two of them, Jordan put on the wedding dress.But Jane was most looking forward to the wedding dress.Both her and Charlotte's weddings were going to be Cherian style.Jordan, however, wanted a Western-style one.And Charlotte, who had designed clothes for many years, had never actually designed a wedding dress before.This was her first attempt, and she was very excit

"Okay, I won't bring it up anymore."Westley walked over with Jonathan and sat down.Miranda was very satisfied. "Finally, Jordy can have dinner with me again."Jordan smiled. "I'm also happy. I can still call you Mom.""Then let's drink to that.""Okay."Westley waited for the "mother and daughter" to finish speaking, then threw out a big announcement. "By the way, our wedding is on the 22nd of next month."Clang!The spoon in Miranda's hand fell."What did you say?""On the 22nd of next month, Jordy and I are getting married. We sincerely invite you and your husband to attend."Jordan was also shocked.She only knew that Charlotte's dress was being made, and they were picking the wedding date.But Westley hadn't told her about this in advance."Next month, it's almost the New Year.""Yes, it's a wedding before the New Year. Then we'll celebrate the New Year at home. I'm informing you in advance, my dear mom. You can prepare for the the New Year Eve dinner.""The New Y

Jonathan almost spit out the tea he was drinking."You have principles now?""Not the right time to talk nonsense."Westley. "Do you always talk in a way that pokes others' pain points?"Jonathan smiled for a moment. "If you've done it, don't be afraid of people talking about it."Westley didn't want to continue the conversation and stood up to leave.He went to the kitchen to find Jordan and found her eating ravioli."Didn't you say you'd help?" Westley sat next to her. "How come you're eating secretly? Give me a bite?"Jordan guarded the food. "It’s in the kitchen. There's still plenty in the pot.""But I want to eat from your bowl.""But I don't want to give you any."Westley laughed. "Okay."But while Jordan took a bite of the ravioli, he kissed her.Jordan's eyes widened as she felt the ravioli in her mouth being stolen away."You're disgusting."Westley smiled. "Sweet."Jordan couldn't eat anymore and pushed the remaining ravioli to him. "I'm not eating anymore."
