Chapter 291

Author: Lean
Meanwhile, a force was pulling the door from the inside just as I was about to peek in. A waiter blocked my view.

This place pays great attention to guest privacy.

The waiter said, "Hello, are you a friend of Mr. Wilde?"

The name was unfamiliar to me.

I had no choice but to shake my head. "No, I must have gone to the wrong room."

As I turned to leave, it felt like someone was staring at me intensely, making me feel uneasy.

When I glanced back, the door to the private room was already closed tightly.

Back in the room, Jane had already ordered the food. "Take a look, is there anything you want to eat?"

"I'm not picky. Just order what you want."

Thinking about what happened earlier, I was somewhat preoccupied.

It wasn't someone I knew, but what they talked about sounded very much like something that happened to me.

It almost felt like a perfect fit.

But I had never heard of someone called Mr. Wilde being close to Ryan.

Jane noticed something was off and leaned close to my ear

    "Charlotte, your uncle has received our divorce lawsuit notice," said Mr. White. He then warned, "But when I was leaving the hospital, I ran into your uncle. He looked very upset and might cause trouble for your aunt.""Got it, thank you! I'll head over there right away."My aunt was in a critical stage of treatment, and the stomach was an organ sensitive to one’s emotions. A big argument or commotion wouldn't be good for her recovery.I hung up and returned to the private room and leaned close to Jane's ear. "Jane, you take care of things here. Something happened with my aunt, and I need to go check on her."Her expression changed with concern. "What happened? I'll go with you.""It's probably nothing serious." I patted her shoulder. "You go ahead and have fun with everyone. I don't want to ruin the mood."With that, I grabbed my bag and said my goodbyes before leaving.Jack also hurriedly stood up. "You've been drinking. I'll take you.""Alright."I knew he had come to this

    I turned abruptly, about to question further, when Jack strode over with an unfriendly expression. "Charlotte."I nodded. "Jack."As soon as Bob saw him, his expression changed instantly. He stammered, "Mr. Renolds, what are you doing here?"Clearly, he was very afraid of Jack.Jack glanced at me, confirming that I was alright, then fixed his gaze on Bob. "Have you forgotten what I told you so soon?""I wouldn't dare!" Bob vehemently denied, forcing a fawning and cautious smile. "I—I'm just here to see my wife. This girl just happened to come by."Seeing how scared Bob was of Jack, I took the opportunity to press on. "What you just said, what was that all about? You keep bringing it up. Don't tell me it was just idle talk."Jack had also heard that comment.Bob shrank back, avoiding my aunt's gaze. Gritting his teeth, he began, "I was just...""You'd better tell the truth." Jack smiled slightly, interrupting gent.y, "When we were young, I saw how her parents treated her like a

    I didn't think much of it and smiled. "We left a while ago. I've even taken a shower after getting home.""That's good.""Bob... Uncle Bob didn't cause any more trouble for you, did he?"Before Jack and I left, he had warned Bob.Bob kept nodding, practically bowing.My aunt nodded. "Don’t worry. He's already signed the divorce agreement and just left."I was somewhat surprised. "He signed it so quickly?"It seemed that Bob was indeed terrified of Jack.He had insisted earlier that he would claim a share of my assets.My aunt also breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, you should really thank Mr. Renolds. He's a good person.""Alright, I'll find a chance to thank him."With my aunt's divorce resolved, it alleviated a major concern of mine.From now on, I would only need to care for my aunt, without dealing with that old scoundrel.The Charlotte Jewelry, a newly established brand, naturally didn’t have many customers.But that didn't stop me from being extremely busy.It took n

    Megan, who wasn’t backing down, left Jane and me wide-eyed.When I realized what was happening, I quickly pulled Megan behind me, fearing that Mrs. Shaw might involve her."Come at me if you have any issues.""Charlotte!" Megan, undeterred, faced Mrs. Shaw and said, "Didn't you say you didn't want this dress? Let Bethany come out and stop trying it on.""What!" Mrs. Shaw sneered repeatedly, showing extreme contempt. "You're making me laugh. You're just a small employee. Does your boss agree with what you're saying? Do you know how much this dress costs...""I can buy it!" Megan puffed out her cheeks and declared this with an air of authority.I pretended not to hear her bragging.Mrs. Shaw, infuriated, turned pale with rage. "Charlotte, is this also your intention?""If you don't like it, that's fine," I said with a faint smile.Mrs. Shaw gritted her teeth and glared at Megan. "Are you sure you can afford it? This dress costs over 1 million dollars!""It’s only a million doll

    "Mom... Why... I'm the customer here!""Behave yourself!"Mrs. Shaw, swallowing her anger, handed the phone back to Frank and turned to me with a forced smile. "Ms. Wilson, as the designer of the dress, please make sure to attend the engagement party next week. If there are any issues with the dress, it will be easier to resolve them if you're present.""Safe travels. I won’t be seeing you out."I made a gesture to indicate that they could leave. "Please transfer the final payment to the account from last time. Thank you."After the farce, it was already nearing seven o'clock.I suggested treating them to pizza.Just as we reached the underground car park, Jane received a call about a drinking party and decided to abandon me.So it was just Frank, Megan, and me.Frank raised his chin a little. "Get in my car. I'll drop you and Megan off at work tomorrow.""Alright."As I walked over to open the rear door, Megan pushed me into the front seat, "Charlotte, sit in the front. It'

    I instinctively took a step back. "Frank..."He glanced at me, suppressing his emotions, and said curtly, "Leave."He then squatted down and began picking up the shards of the broken piggy bank, carefully.I felt quite sorry and quickly crouched down to help him, "I'm sorry, I..."He didn't even look up and repeated coldly, "I said leave.""Charlotte, let's go..."Megan grabbed my hand and led me out, gently closing the door behind us before explaining, "That piggy bank was his most treasured possession. He took it everywhere and never let anyone touch it.""He..." I felt some guilt and wanted to make amends. "Do you know where I can buy a replacement for that piggy bank? I'll get him a new one.""It can't be bought."Megan shook her head helplessly, "That piggy bank was a gift made by a ceramic artist that Lily begged Madam Shaw to invite for my brother's birthday. It was made just for him. The rabbit on it represents Lily herself. She wanted to accompany my brother every day

    As I invited him in and changed my shoes, I couldn't help but ask, "Were you able to find something about my background?"He paused for a moment, then smiled lightly. "How did you guess so quickly?""How did it go?"I was eager to know. Although my parents had passed away many years ago, it was very important to me to know whether I was truly their child.He walked over to the sofa, handed me a file, and said helplessly, "Indeed, Bob was talking nonsense. Don't dwell on this anymore. It would make your parents sad if they knew."Hearing this, I felt my heart settle and began to flip through the file. It contained my birth certificate, various medical records from childhood, blood type, date of birth... Everything matched up.With each thing I checked, my heart felt more at ease.I was completely reassured. I was indeed my parents' child, and their affection for me was never false."Thank you so much, Jack!"I looked at Jack with gratitude. "Have you eaten? There are still

    I had to admit, it was quite heartbreaking.When Ryan and I got married, there was no engagement party. Even the wedding was handled entirely by Grandpa. He only reluctantly made an appearance. It wasn't grand at all because he said he didn't want it to be public. The wedding was attended only by the Frost family and close friends, making it as simple as a dinner party.From our marriage to divorce, outsiders only knew that he pampered his wife, but few knew who his wife actually was. I repressed my emotions, shifted my gaze, and out of the corner of my eye, I saw Ryan striding in with a custom-made tailcoat, his expression cold and detached. On his arm was Bethany, wearing a dress I had designed myself. They looked like a golden couple, their attire shimmering and radiant. Their appearance drew many guests' attention.Several people tried to approach and ingratiate themselves.However, Bethany walked towards me, embodying the demeanor of the hostess. "Ms. Wilson, I invited you

    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."
