"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

    His eyes flickered slightly, looking ahead. "Yeah.""Why not call the police then?""Silly." Jack smiled. "Do you think the person celebrating her 80th birthday today would agree to me calling the police? Sometimes, achieving the same result can be done in different ways."His words were profound and difficult to fathom.I looked at him unexpectedly and laughed. "Jack, I think you're different from the Jack I knew before.""How come?" He paused for a moment, looking at me. "Or... do you not like me this way?""No!" I immediately denied, praising him. "I think you're even more capable and smart than the Jack I knew before. I really admire how thorough you are in your considerations."People like him and me had no one else to rely on.The only person we could rely on was ourselves.Moreover, he was in the wolf's den of the Renolds family. If he didn’t consider things thoroughly, he would only end up dead.He looked stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly brightened. "Really?"

    A third party, and now a fourth party was being cursed at.Never did I expect that just as I burst into laughter, a stifled chuckle echoed not far behind me.Startled, I turned around and met a somewhat carefree and unruly face, with a hint of roguishness at the corners of his lips. He wore a leather jacket and casually leaned against the wall. "Mrs. Frost has quite unique tastes."Caught eavesdropping, I felt a bit guilty, but then dissipated it with a thought. "Aren't you the same?""I didn't want to interrupt your enjoyment.""Well, you've interrupted it now."I retorted, glancing at him. "Who are you, and how do you know about me?""Frank Smith." He told me his full name, abandoning his nonchalant demeanor and straightened up. "Mrs. Frost, goodbye."With that said, he walked away, grabbed the bun of the wealthy heiress, and sarcastically remarked, "Bethany, with your intelligence so dim that you can't even distinguish who the real Mrs. Frost is, you can forget about being a

    Ryan grew increasingly displeased as he sneered. "You're quite concerned!""Oh, not really." I chuckled. "The fourth party who blocked Jessica today, that was her. Ryan, you can seamlessly transition from your first marriage to your second and third."His brows furrowed tightly. "Impossible.""How is it impossible? Don't you believe me? Ask Jessica yourself."After saying this, I realized that Jessica had been missing for half a day! I scanned the hall but didn't see my father-in-law, John, either.A thought flashed through my mind, and I quickly said, "I have a stomach ache, need to use the restroom!"With that, I clutched my stomach and hurried towards the direction of the restroom.The Renolds family's residence was vast. After finding no signs of movement in the restroom, I went straight to the backyard.The upper floors were reserved for the hosts; ordinary guests wouldn't go up there.They either left or were in some corner of the yard...The cold wind outside was bitin

    In his tone, one could easily discern a hint of mockery.In the play of light and shadow, Frank leaned against the tree trunk, with scattered short hair falling over his forehead. The corners of his eyes curved upwards, exuding a carefree and unrestrained demeanor.Seeming completely oblivious, he said such things to someone of the opposite sex whom he had just met today, which was quite inappropriate.On such a cold and bleak night, why did he come out to the courtyard?I put away my phone, feeling somewhat guarded. "What are you doing here too?""Relax, I'm definitely not following you," Frank replied in a lazy voice. "It's too stuffy inside. I came out for some fresh air. Who knew people in Jelaston were so open.""It's just them."I always felt this man was not simple and not suitable for much interaction.I pursed my lips and got straight to the point. "Can you keep this matter to yourself for now?"I needed to achieve my goal with this matter. If he let it slip, all my p

    His eyes turned cold instantly, his voice lowering as he warned, "Charlotte, I've noticed you're getting bolder. We're not divorced yet.""I know." I raised my head. "People come and go. What can he and I possibly do?""Come home with me!"He remained as domineering as ever, grabbing my hand and preparing to leave.I tried to shake him off, but then he said, "He and Bethany were summoned by Mrs. Renolds. Do you want to freeze out here?"His implication was that Jack might not show up for a while.I gave up struggling. After all, I also had something to discuss with Ryan tonight. "Let go, I can walk on my own."He acted as if he hadn't heard me.And so, I was dragged all the way to the car by him.Feeling somewhat annoyed, I sent a quick WhatsApp message to Jack , letting him know I was leaving early. Rather than waiting until I got home, I started playing the video and handed my phone over to Ryan.Ambiguous and provocative sounds immediately filled the car!The driver, prob

    After hearing what I said, he sneered..What followed was an overwhelming rage from the man. His jaw tightened, voice as cold as ice. "So, you went to such lengths to film this kind of thing just to threaten me into divorcing you?"I retorted, "What else could it be?"Could it possibly be to make him see Jessica clearly and return to this broken and miserable marriage of ours?That was too far-fetched.He brimmed with fury, gritting his teeth. "Charlotte, are you sure you want a divorce?""Yes," I said without a hint of hesitation.A dark cloud overshadowed his face. "And what if I don't agree?"I stood my ground. "Then I'll let everyone see this video."I was absolutely certain. Given Ryan's character, he would never allow this thing to be exposed.It would not only be embarrassing but also affect the Frost family's stocks, causing turmoil.On a small scale, it was private, but on a larger scale, it was a scandal for an affluent family.Veins bulging on his forehead, Ryan

    "Sure." I nodded with delight, casting a skeptical glance at her. "Is it because... Tom won't leave you alone?""Yeah!" She hiccupped after drinking the water, her gaze slightly unfocused but her thoughts clear. "He said he doesn't want to split up with me and is willing to give up his engagement for me."I was somewhat surprised. "Is that true?""You silly thing!" Jane poked my head with her finely manicured fingers, completely sober. "Whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter. Even if he's willing, will his family agree? The Hilton family might not be as affluent as the Frost family, but no matter what, it's not my place to marry into such a family.""Love, no matter how intense, can it withstand his family's strong opposition? Even if I marry into the Hilton family, will I really live a happy life? Only a fool would fall for it!"After hearing her out, I pinched her cheek. "After drinking so much, you're still so clear-headed?"She smiled at me. It was a bitter smile. "It's

    "I’m fine. I’ve already recovered quite a bit," Zachary said as he bent one knee to the floor.Jane instinctively wanted to kneel with him, but Zachary stopped her. "You can’t," he said, giving her a meaningful look.Understanding his intent, Jane obediently stood to the side.Rebecca became agitated. "Do your knees mean nothing to you? You’ve knelt once for her, and now again!"Lowering his gaze, Zachary said calmly, "I’m kneeling in front of my parents. There’s no question of whether it’s worth it or not. She is my fiancee, soon to be my wife. If she has caused you any displeasure, it’s my responsibility to bear it. What’s more, she hasn’t done anything wrong."Rebecca wanted to lash out, but Eric intervened. "Do you want to make your condition even worse with this anger?"A flicker of emotion passed through Zachary’s eyes, but his tone remained neutral. "I don’t understand. I only want to marry the person I love and have children. Why must you go to such lengths to oppose it

    "Why are your hands so cold?"Zachary became even more anxious. He immediately picked her up, placed her on the seat, added another blanket, and asked the flight attendant to increase the temperature of the air conditioning."It’s not that cold."It was already spring. With all these layers on, Jane was worried she’d end up with a heat rash."I just washed my hands a moment ago," she explained.Zachary brought over a hand warmer for her. "Washing your hands doesn’t make them this cold. Just listen to me."Jane sighed. "It’s normal to feel nauseous during pregnancy. There might even be other symptoms later...""No, there won’t be. Nothing else will happen."Jane wanted to explain some of the facts so he could mentally prepare. When Charlotte was pregnant, Jane had read many books. If he was already this anxious now about the morning sickness, how would he handle what came later?Unexpectedly, he refused to accept any of it.Charlotte, observing the scene, couldn’t help but fee

    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
