I saw him furrow his brows subtly. "Do I look like I'm picking a fight for no reason?"

That was hard to say.

I found the two of them annoying. I didn't even want to step out of the building. I turned back towards my room and said, "You'd better get her out of here, or I’m leaving."

Unexpectedly, before I could even enter the room, Jessica came running up, "Ryan, look at this, that Charlotte..."

Her words abruptly halted when her gaze landed on me.

I didn't want to see her, but since she had mentioned me directly, I looked over. "What's wrong with me? Seems like you're really concerned about me."

"You... what are you doing here? You're so shameless. Even after divorcing, you still come to the Frost family..."

She tried to conceal it, but I could still hear the jealousy and resentment in her tone.

"Jessica!" Ryan's face turned cold, "I don't want to remind you for the third time that she is still my wife."

I calmly responded, "Between him and me, we're still lacking a divorce ce

    If that was the case, then this woman was even more terrifying than I thought.Lauren smiled faintly, her lips still somewhat pale, "It's all Ryan's filial piety. Although I've been lying in bed for these years, I've been well taken care of. It's precisely because of this, that I can rest assured entrusting Jessica to him completely.""Oh." My lips twitched, pretending not to understand her implication. "That's good."‘Being a mistress herself and arranging her daughter to be one too.’Unfortunately, her daughter had developed an addiction to being a mistress, not even sparing her own marriage.After saying this, I prepared to return to my room."Ms. Wilson."However, Lauren stopped me. "Jessica and I are here because Jessica received some photos about you. We don’t want to show them to Ryan behind your back, so you should take a look as well."I furrowed my brow, sensing this wouldn't be good.Ryan casually put his hands in his pockets, his voice calm. "Let's talk downstairs,

    He stood up from his seat, his face darkening with accumulated gloom. Looking down at me for a long time from his elevated position, he finally gritted his teeth and tsaid, "Raise your pillow higher when you sleep tonight!"He might as well have told me to keep on dreaming.I was equally irritated, abruptly standing up and walking towards the reception room, glancing at the two bitches whispering to each other. "Alright, what's the matter?""Ryan!"Jessica proudly stood up, her gaze bypassing me and directly meeting Ryan's, dropping a bombshell. "Do you know, the child Charlotte is carrying might not be yours at all!"The air seemed to freeze instantly.I felt a burning anger rising within me, ready to slap her across the face. But this time, Jessica was prepared, pushing me aside and slamming an envelope against my chest.She smirked contemptuously. "Take a look, see how you explain this to Ryan!"The envelope fell to the ground from my body. Someone was quicker to pick it up

    "Ms. Wilson, the nature of the two situations is completely different."Lauren argued forcefully, though her voice remained gentle. "The evidence you presented yesterday only showed that Jessica happened to come into contact with the medication for Grandpa. What does that prove? She merely intended to feed Grandpa. As for you two... standing at the door like that, both adults, what else could happen?"I picked up the glass from the coffee table and splashed it over her face without hesitation, sneering. "Lauren, say one more word and it won't just be water I throw."Jessica slept with her stepfather behind everyone's back, but publicly, she portrayed herself as a dutiful daughter, instantly becoming frantic. "Are you crazy to treat my mom like this?"I grabbed another cup and emptied it on her face as well. "I dare you to speak one more word."Jessica's exquisite makeup was ruined by me. She looked at me incredulously, "Charlotte..."Lauren didn't expect me to act so boldly. Her

    I couldn't read him.Instinctively, I stepped back. "What do you mean?""Let’s not get a divorce, okay?" Ryan held my wrist, feeling my pulse. "From now on, no matter what happens, I only want you. No one else.""Including Lauren and Jessica?""Yes.""Ryan." I found it absurd. "Do you even believe what you're saying?"If it was a sudden awakening, it came too late.I didn't expect him to believe me today, but that wasn't enough to bridge all the past barriers between us.His voice was slow and deep. "Are you still unwilling?"I looked at him firmly and uttered five words. "Yes, I am unwilling."If this decision had been made before losing the child, I might have agreed immediately.But now, I couldn't think of any reason to say yes.Did he cross over me to help another person when I was knocked down?Or did he not hit hard enough when I miscarried?Our marriage had reached a dead end.Ryan fell silent for a long time, gripping my hand tighter. Finally, his eyes were clea

    I lay back on the bed to read, but after who knows how long, I realized the book was upside down. I started feeling restless. I wondered what was wrong with him. If it was because of that gunshot... It should have been me.I closed the book in a fluster and headed to the balcony for some fresh air. At that moment, someone knocked on the door, accompanied by Albert's voice. "Mrs. Frost."My feet quickened involuntarily as I opened the door. "Albert, how is Ryan?""He has a fever."I breathed a slight sigh of relief, thinking it was just a cold or something similar. But then Albert continued, "It's from the infection caused by the gunshot a few days ago. He won't let anyone touch him now, nor will he take any medicine. You're divorcing, and I shouldn't have come to you. But he was calling out your name in his sleep..."I squeezed my hands. "I'll go see him."It was right and proper for me to do so, emotionally and logically.Due to the fever, Ryan's cheeks were flushed unnaturally

    I stood dumbfounded for a moment, feeling both pity and resentment towards the man before me. I couldn't distinguish between his sincerity and pretense anymore. Nor did I want to bother figuring it out, because soon enough, we would have absolutely nothing to do with each other.I sniffed and forcibly shook Ryan awake. "Take your medicine before you sleep."Perhaps knowing it was me, he didn't resist when I brought the medicine to his lips. Instead, he cooperated.After taking the medicine, he obediently fell back asleep.His fever was frighteningly high, not something that would go away quickly.I asked Albert for ointment and applied it to the burns on Ryan's wrist. Only after his fever began to subside did I get up and return to my room.Perhaps because his health was generally good and he was still young, Albert came the next morning to inform me that his fever had completely gone.However, in the afternoon, several high-fashion dresses were delivered by the servants."Ryan

    "Am I slandering him?"I could see the anger in his eyes.Seeing how easily he got angry now, I suddenly felt relieved both physically and mentally. "Isn't it true? Ryan, you told me that evidence is needed for everything."With that said, I walked towards the room.Behind me, the man suppressed his anger, uttering two words through gritted teeth, "Six o'clock.""Got it!"I didn't look back.The reason I agreed wasn't because of him, but because I thought of the scene where Jack was beaten in the ancestral hall that day. Suddenly, I hoped that if Sally embarrassed him again tonight, I could stand by him for once.For once, it was my turn to help him.After all, with the status of Mrs. Frost, it was unnecessary not to use it.After taking a shower and tidying up in my room, I put on an exquisite makeup.For such occasions, being elegant and dignified was enough. Therefore, when choosing a dress, I opted for an embroidered little black dress that ended at the knees, revealing

    There was no need to turn around, just from the voice, I knew it was Jessica.Ryan calmly withdrew his arm. "Why are you here?""Dad brought me here."Jessica's voice was gentle. "Dad said I'll have to help you manage the Frost family in the future, so I came to get acquainted."I felt nothing but mockery inside. I heard Ryan's cold voice. "Then go find him. Why follow me around?""Why? Do you dislike me now?"Jessica pretended to be angry and then tried to please Ryan. "Oh, if it's about the photos from a few days ago, I'm not mad anymore. Why do you still care? Besides, it was Charlotte who cuckolded you, not me...""Jessica!" Ryan sternly interrupted, as if trying to shake her off.John appeared from nowhere, adopting his fatherly style. "I saw a few friends. I'll go say hello. Jessica hasn't been to such occasions before. Take care of her so no one bullies her."I walked away quickly, and I didn't hear what Ryan said as reply.It didn’t matter.Besides agreeing, what els

    She changed the topic, saying, "Your mother is ill."After boarding the plane, Zachary called home to check on the situation.Frank, sitting beside him, briefly explained what had happened during Zachary's coma.Zachary thought for a moment, then grabbed a blanket and returned to Jane's side, covering her with it.On the table in front of her were a tablet, fruits, water, and everything else she might need.Even so, Zachary still felt he hadn't taken care of her well enough."Do you feel uncomfortable? I heard your medical results weren’t great. If it might harm your health, then maybe..."Jane stuffed an orange into his mouth before he could finish.The orange was incredibly sour. She enjoyed it, but it made his handsome face scrunch up."Is it good?" she asked, her face full of triumphant delight.Zachary swallowed it whole and said, "Anything you feed me tastes good."Across from them, Charlotte was rendered speechless.Frank showed up just in time, popping a piece of c

    Frank found the situation boring and clicked his tongue dismissively.Charlotte asked, “Wouldn’t you be happy to have such an adorable daughter?”Zachary glanced at Gemma.The little girl smiled, revealing two dimples, her big, gem-like eyes sparkling.She looked like a delicate doll.Of course, he would be thrilled to have such a cute daughter with Jane.But the one in front of him clearly wasn’t his.She didn’t resemble him or Jane in the slightest.Neither of them had dimples.If nothing else, at least a trait like his sharp canine teeth should have been passed down.But the little girl had none of those.“We will have a lovely daughter,” Zachary said confidently.Charlotte stepped aside, taking Gemma with her, leaving the two of them space.Forgetting Frank for a moment, she suddenly heard him drawl, “Congratulations, you might be having a daughter soon.”“What?”Charlotte quickly clamped her hand over Frank’s mouth and dragged him away.“Surprises like this should

    Charlotte couldn’t help but sigh. “Can things really balance out like that? With the current situation, Mrs. Collins will inevitably use her health problems to threaten them into breaking up. If Zachary cuts ties with his family for Jane, it’ll only make her feel worse.”Frank lifted her face again. “Let me see if you’ve gotten wrinkles yet.”Charlotte pushed him away. “When will you ever stop joking around?”Frank chuckled. “Is cheering you up a crime now?”“It depends on the timing.”“No matter the timing, my wife’s happiness is always the most important.”Charlotte was helpless against Frank.Frank raised his hand and lightly tapped her cheek with the back of it.“Let Zachary handle his family’s affairs. Even if you keep worrying, you won’t be able to solve anything.”Hearing his words, Charlotte suddenly felt a bit clearer.“You and Zachary have a plan, don’t you?”Frank looked at her brightened eyes, and a laugh spilled from his chest.With a cryptic tone, he said, “Gu

    Tanner’s index and middle fingers moved slightly.“Send her back to the country, have Carter do a checkup, and if necessary, she’ll need surgery.”Everyone’s expressions changed.Eric, who had come to deliver food, dropped everything he was holding, spilling it all on the floor.He rushed over and took Rebecca from Frank’s hands.“What kind of surgery?”Tanner withdrew her hand. “If you’re her husband, you should know she has heart problems, right?”“Her liver is in poor condition, and her heart is also weak. You’ll need to comfort her more and stop making her angry all the time.”Rebecca had worked hard for her business. When she was about to give birth to Zachary, she was still in a business meeting.After the negotiation, she didn’t even have time to go to the hospital before giving birth.She rushed to the hospital with the baby in a hurry.She had a sudden hemorrhage and ended up in the emergency room.Because of this, she developed some lingering health issues.In re

    “She’s truly amazing. I could talk about her for three days and nights without stopping.”“Then don’t say it now. Wait until Zachary wakes up so Jane can hear it too. She loves listening to stories.”“You’re being awfully tactful, my dear.”Charlotte rubbed her nose, feeling a little awkward. Tanner was here to treat Zachary, so gossiping about people didn’t seem very appropriate.“You should go rest. You’ve worked hard recently.”Frank gave her a deep, lingering look. “When you need me, you’re warm. When you don’t, you’re cold, huh?”Charlotte glared at him playfully. “Can’t you show a little brotherly love?”“Zachary is still lying there. Watch your words.”Frank let out a soft scoff. “He’s faking—”Charlotte immediately covered his mouth.‘Alright, fine...’Frank pulled her hand down and gave it a firm squeeze. “Just wait until we’re back in Jeswood.”Charlotte turned and walked into the ward, but not before sticking her tongue out at him through the small window.‘Fine

    Only Rebecca wore a face full of resentment, her eyes blazing with anger.She couldn’t feel any joy at all.Ross suddenly said, “Mrs. Collins, once Mr. Collins wakes up, I won’t stay by his side anymore.”Jane was stunned. “Why?”Ross replied, “Because I can’t eat my favorite snacks anymore.”‘Alright, he has a point.’Jane truly didn’t know how to respond to that.An hour later, Frank returned with the pregnancy test results.Charlotte immediately stepped forward to greet him. “How is it?”“I didn’t look. I’m not the one who’s pregnant.”Charlotte shot him a glare and grabbed the test results from his hand.The final result indicated four weeks of pregnancy.It confirmed that Jane was indeed pregnant.She handed the results to Jane. “Congratulations.”Even though Jane had already accepted the idea of being pregnant, seeing the confirmation still filled her with excitement.Charlotte quickly helped her sit down. “You must rest well during the early stages. No intense emo

    Jane's lips twitched.It was all because of Ross.Zachary once said that as long as something didn’t require flexibility, Ross was the one to rely on.He only followed orders and never played tricks.No matter who the other person was.He only obeyed Zachary and her.She hadn’t expected that her commands would be more effective than those of Rebecca."Ross, you’re the Collins family’s bodyguard. How can you obey orders from an outsider?"Rebecca was still struggling, but Ross, annoyed, actually tied her up.Then, he grabbed the unfinished snack, and just as Rebecca was about to speak, he stuffed a bite into her mouth.Rebecca hated snacks the most, and she immediately felt nauseous and uncomfortable. She couldn’t even think about speaking anymore.Ross was puzzled. “This snack is delicious. You just don’t know how to appreciate its flavor. Also, my master is only Mr. Collins. When I came here, it was made clear that I only serve Mr. Collins“Then why…”Rebecca, driven to t

    The little girl covered her mouth and giggled, “Have a guess, Mom.”Jane was about to say something when the door to the ward opened.A beautiful but unfamiliar woman walked in.Her gaze fell on the little girl's face, and she smiled helplessly. “Gemma, are you playing tricks again?”The little girl ran up to her and hugged her legs, her voice clear and sweet. “Mom!”Actually, the little girl didn’t need to say anything. When the woman revealed a dimple on her cheeks, both Jane and Charlotte had already guessed.The mother and daughter looked very alike.“Hi, Tanner Mayes.”Jane hurried over and shook her hand. “Are you Dr. Greyson's sister-in-law?”For some reason, she felt a trace of coldness flash in Tanner’s eyes.Tanner didn’t answer the question. Instead, she said, “Let me see the patient.”Jane quickly moved aside and pointed to Zachary.Tanner walked to the bedside and checked Zachary's pulse.Jane was well aware of Carter’s medical skills. He was famous for saving

    Jordan expressed her understanding. "The great calamity has passed, and from now on, it will be all good, happy, and peaceful days."Jane nodded. "I hope your words come true."But Zachary did not wake up as quickly as they had hoped.Jane insisted that Jordan return to the country, but Jordan was determined to stay with her.She even said she would take some documentary photos while she was there.One day, while Rebecca went to the hotel to change clothes, Jane sat by Zachary's bedside.Charlotte went to the door to keep watch, leaving the space for them both.Zachary was still unconscious, and Frank had to return to Jeswood. In addition to overseeing his own business, he also had to help keep an eye on the Collins family’s business.As soon as Charlotte closed the door, she received a message.She replied to confirm she was fine and then sat down on a nearby chair.In the room, Jane held Zachary's hand.As she got closer, she noticed a strand of grey hair behind his ear.
