Chapter 459

Author: Lean
Yasmin blurted out, "What a coincidence?"

Two years ago, Christine had impersonated Charlotte, the eldest daughter of the Shaw family.

Christine and Charlotte had the same birthday.

They were born in the same hospital.

It might be normal if only one or two of these coincidences happened, but all of them coming together was strange.

Yasmin began to carefully review the documents, and Joanne spoke up at the right moment, "Yes, I also think... isn't it a bit too coincidental?"

"It is."

The more Yasmin read, the more serious her expression became.

Additionally, with Christine's "previous offenses" of impersonating someone else, Yasmin had to be more careful.

She loved Christine, of course.

She would do anything for her.

But that was only if Christine was truly her daughter!

Joanne, realizing the gravity of the situation, looked alarmed and raised her voice a bit. "Could it be that Ms. Wilson is actually..."

"Shush." Yasmin frowned and interrupted, glancing toward the

    They were in the open, while the other party was in the dark. It was impossible to guard against everything.The search for her daughter had been a private affair before Christine was identified. Very few people knew about it, and they were all reliable.It was unclear which link in the chain leaked information, giving the other party an opportunity.Yasmin thought about her attitude towards Charlotte, feeling a pang of anxiety. "If I'm wrong, then my real daughter is very likely Charlotte... right?""Yes," Joanne answered straightforwardly. "Actually, don't you think Charlotte resembles you quite a bit?""Resembles in appearance?""That's one way to put it." Joanne nodded, then shifted her focus. "But the main thing is her attitude. Doesn't she remind you of how you were when you were younger?"Yasmin frowned. "What do you mean?""She's ruthless when it comes to dealing with scumbags."Joanne smiled. "She and Ryan have also cut ties completely."Yasmin disagreed. She seemed

    Christine desperately hoped that Jack would come up with a solution. Even if it was just to delay things for a while.Or...On the other end of the line, Jack's expression froze, and he asked coldly, "What happened?"He sensed that the situation was quite complicated. Christine was rarely this flustered and disoriented.Christine steadied herself, locked the door, and tried to regain her composure to explain the situation clearly. "Yasmin suspects my identity! That's not all..."As she spoke, she shook her head and said in a panic, "It's not just suspicion; she wants to do another paternity test!"Realizing this, she admired the man on the other end of the line immensely. She had thought that everything was foolproof once Yasmin accepted her. It was Jack who reminded her to always stay on guard.Even moving into this villa, he had advised her to install a bug in the study and Yasmin's bedroom to prevent being caught off guard if anything happened.She had only installed the bug

    Regarding this, Jack was even more concerned than she was. Just like two years ago, when Charlotte was safely studying and receiving treatment in Frankes, with no one around who could rival his importance. He didn't have to worry about anyone taking Charlotte away. It was perfect.But he knew that Charlotte would not return.Jack exhaled deeply and rejected the idea. "No.""You must have a way... you definitely do..."Christine knew that Jack was ruthless. If he wanted, Charlotte could disappear!Hearing this, Jack was slightly taken aback. "What are you trying to say?""To, to..." Christine's dark thoughts kept surfacing, but she also knew that Jack had a fondness for Charlotte, that wretched woman. After a long pause, she finally said, "Lock her up! Or find a way to bind her...""Impossible!" Jack's face turned dark, his anger evident. "I warn you, keep your thoughts to yourself. As long as she's in Jeswood, you better ensure her safety. If anything like what happened at the l

    The next morning.In a half-awake, half-dreaming state, I turned over and reached out to touch something extra beside me. No, it wasn't an object. It was a person. I jolted awake and realized I was in someone's embrace, and the owner of the embrace was... Looking at me with soft eyes, as if trying to use up all his tenderness, he asked, "Awake?" His voice was slightly raspy and hoarse. As my consciousness gradually cleared from last night, I felt a bit embarrassed. Then, I reached out and hugged him, snuggling closer into his arms, and boldly declared, "Not awake yet, still want to sleep."This sleep was a deep, restful one I hadn't had in a long time. Very comforting, with no dreams throughout the night. Frank cocked his brows and asked lazily, "Are you a little pig or something?""I’m your little pig." I nuzzled against his chest, the cool, minty scent somewhat invigorating. He chuckled. "Are you calling me a pig as well?""Not at all." I looked up at him and pl

    There was a moment of silence in the air.Jack didn't seem surprised, his face still bearing a gentle smile. "I heard. Congratulations."He then turned to Frank. "Charlotte has endured a lot of hardship. I hope she won't have to suffer any more with you.""Otherwise, as her family, I won't let you off so easily."I expected the situation to be a bit awkward. Although Jack had promised to be just friends from now on, as adults, I could sense whether he had truly moved on or not. Over the past two years, he hadn't brought up emotional topics, but the concerns he showed every day was obvious. He didn't mention it, and I didn't want to force the issue or emphasize anything.Now that there was a chance to clear things up, he didn't show any unusual reaction, which was a relief.Jane waved her fist at Frank. "Count me in, Mr. Smith. Charlotte is my best and only friend. If you bully her, I won't care whether you are!""If I bully her..." Frank looked at me and said. "I'll be the

    Having lived on the lower rungs of society for over twenty years, she knew exactly what kind of people the fans at that level would like.She entered the courtyard for this recording, greeting each of the Jacks one by one. With her identity as Yasmin's daughter, almost everyone who saw her was very warm and welcoming.There were cameras and program directors all over the place. Christine felt a bit dazed but was very well-behaved, presenting herself like a neighbor's daughter in front of the Jacks.She even brought gifts for everyone, including the production team.It was easy to imagine that once the show aired, there would be no shortage of praise for her.It wasn't until she entered her room in the evening, covered the camera with a piece of clothing, and took out her phone to call Jack that her expression turned serious.She didn't know how things were going on his end!Jack sat in the darkness, watching his phone ring incessantly, feeling extremely frustrated. But Chris

    That evening, after finishing my shower, I was doing my skincare routine while urging Danny to go to bed.Jane walked in with an incredulous look on her face. "Christine is trending on social media!"I was applying toner and said, "It would be abnormal if she weren't."With Yasmin as her mother, she automatically had massive exposure from the start.Ordinary people didn't know that Christine had previously disappeared. They only thought that Yasmin had kept her protected under her wing for over 20 years, shielding her from public disturbance.Now that she was suddenly on a variety show, curiosity about Christine naturally surged, and many wanted to explore more about her."But the content of this trending topic is really strange!" Jane handed me her phone. "Look at this—what it's saying, about how beautiful and kind she is, calling her a beautiful fool, almost praising Christine to the heavens."“Christine is so warm!”“Christine gaining followers!”“Yasmin's daughter, a new cel

    When I opened the door, there was a stranger standing outside.The man was dressed in a well-tailored suit vest, with a tall and upright posture, and a dark overcoat draped over his arm. He appeared to be in his thirties, with a dignified and inscrutable demeanor.He was like an elder.I didn't recognize this person and was momentarily confused. "Hello, who are you looking for?""Hello." He nodded slightly. "I'm looking for Daniel.""Daniel?"My brain briefly froze, then I realized and asked with a smile, "Is it Danny?""Yes.""And you are...?""I'm his father, Alex Jackson.""I see."His formal way of speaking made me quickly recall the few words Danny had used to introduce his father—an old-fashioned gentleman.Alex didn't rudely look inside the house but instead looked directly at me. "Today is the Jackson family's family dinner. I've come to pick him up."As far as I knew, the Jackson family was the most low-key but also the most intricate among the three great familie

    Jane didn’t care about Westley. Even if he was feeling it now, it was too late for regrets.If he hadn’t acted the way he did, Jordan wouldn’t have suffered so much.Moreover, he had once ignored her cries for help, so now he shouldn’t blame Jordan for his injuries.“How’s my sister?” she asked.Roy replied, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Collins, Ms. Hickey is doing fine. Except for the lack of freedom, there are no other restrictions.”“When can I have a video call with her?”Roy thought for a moment. “Since Mr. Howard is now delirious, I can make the arrangements.”“Thank you,” said Jane.“It’s no trouble, it’s my job.”After hanging up the phone, Jane looked at Zachary and asked, “What do you think?”Zachary moved the phone a little farther away to avoid radiation.After finishing the massage, he helped her lie down and said, “I’m thinking what you’re thinking.”Jane gave him a sidelong glance. “You’re slick.”Zachary smirked and bent down to kiss her forehead.“Get some rest.”

    "Mrs. Howard—"Buck watched helplessly as Jordan jumped into the sea.Before he could rush over, a figure was even faster than him."Sir!"Westley dived into the water, found Jordan, and dragged her to the shore.When Jordan was pulled onto the shore, she was still a bit dazed.Wasn't she just swimming? Why was there so much fuss?Buck gestured for people to bring a stretcher, lifted Westley onto it, and hurried back.Buck also called for the maids to help Jordan back.Jordan wiped her face, pushed the maid aside, and twisted the water out of her hair. "What happened?"Buck was anxious to check on Westley, but he couldn’t stop watching Jordan, worried she might jump into the sea again and trying to think of other ways to prevent it."Mr. Howard was saving you.""Why?" Jordan was confused. "I didn’t drown. What’s the need to save me?"Buck recalled what he had seen earlier. It seemed like... swimming?"Weren’t you... jumping into the sea?""Yes." Jordan didn’t notice Buck

    "Nathan, you should head back and deal with your own matters. Let's not interfere with Jordan's matters anymore."Nathan didn’t expect Jane to say this. He paused for a moment before speaking. "You know better than I do what Westley has done. How can we just ignore it? Jordan is still young and hasn’t experienced much in terms of relationships. She lacks experience, what if she falls again..."Jane knew what he was talking about and comforted him. "Don’t worry. Jordan may have experienced little in terms of relationships, but she’s not a foolish girl. She knows how to handle things."Nathan asked, "Is it because there’s something Westley knows?""No, it’s because we can't let Westley continue making a scene. This matter still needs to be handled by the person involved."Nathan didn’t say anything more and told Jane not to worry. When it was close to her delivery, he would come back.Jane agreed and hung up the phone.She threw the phone onto the counter and hugged Zachary from b

    Charlotte raised her hand and gently patted Jane’s shoulder."I understand, after all, she's your sister. But I think Jordan is very smart and capable, she can take care of herself. You can worry, but at the same time, take care of your own health. Then, when she comes back, you can love her properly."Jordan walked around the island.There was a helipad on the mountain with two helicopters.Out at sea, there was a large cruise ship docked.But she didn’t know how to pilot any of them, so there was no way to escape.In the end, she decided to just accept things as they were.If there was a problem, she would deal with it. If not, she’d wait."Mrs. Howard, Jasmine is looking for you."When Jordan returned to the villa, Buck handed her a phone.Hearing Jasmine’s name, she took it."Jasmine.""I'm relieved you're okay," said Jasmine, letting out a sigh of relief, then apologizing. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have drunk so much.""It’s not your fault."Since Westley had a plan to

    She got up just around noon.After thinking for a moment, she decided to go see Westley.Westley wasn't in the bedroom, so she went downstairs to ask the staff.The servant pointed toward the kitchen, and she walked over, finding Westley cutting vegetables.A strip of bandages was wrapped around his exposed wrist.His pale lips and exhausted eyes suggested he was still in poor condition.Yet, he was cooking?Jordan pressed her lips together, her sleep had been poor, and her face didn’t look good either.She stood in place for a few seconds, then turned and walked away.If he didn’t take care of his own body, what business was it of hers?Westley glanced over but didn’t call her, continuing his task.Buck watched the whole scene, worried about Westley’s health, he was still running a fever.“Sir, you should rest. Let me arrange for someone to cook, and I’ll bring it up to you later. And Mrs. Howard... probably won’t care about you... You should take care of your health. Othe

    Charlotte nodded. “So does unhygienic mean better taste?”Jane directly spoke to her belly, "Son, you have to treat your mother-in-law well in the future. Mommy won't be able to back you up. Mommy’s useless..."Charlotte raised her hand and poked her forehead. "Alright, stop the act.""You're even bringing the child up. We still don’t know if it's a boy."Jane said, "I want to arrange a marriage alliance with you. My child can sense his mother’s feelings and will surely fulfill his mother's wishes.""That's nonsense." Charlotte went out to buy what she wanted to eat.As soon as she sat in the car, she received a call from Frank."Is Mr. Smith slacking off again?"Frank chuckled. "I’m calling my wife. Is that not allowed anymore?"Charlotte had driven herself. She turned on the air conditioning and was thinking about going shopping. "I’ve got to go now. I'll be home tonight."Frank heard the sound of the engine and asked, "Did you go out?"Charlotte snorted, "You should know

    The fireworks were dazzling and brilliant.Westley looked up in a certain direction.At the moment the fireworks bloomed, a figure appeared in the window of that place.Jordan couldn’t sleep because of Westley’s injury.As she tossed and turned in bed, a sudden bright light appeared in front of the window.She walked over to the window, opened it, and saw the fireworks bursting in the night sky.There seemed to be a few figures on the beach.But Westley was tall enough that she could spot him at a glance.At that moment, she forgot to watch the fireworks.It was only when Westley raised his hand and pointed upward that she looked up.She realized that the fireworks formed a few words.“I’m sorry, Jordan.”“Happy birthday.”Jordan had originally planned to spend her birthday with Nathan and Jane.But when she was brought over by Westley, she completely forgot about her birthday.She glanced at the time, and it was exactly midnight.Her birthday had begun.The night sky

    Jordan had eaten and drunk enough and was about to return to her room.Westley called out to her."Wait a moment."Jordan ignored him and kept on walking.But Westley grabbed her arms and she was pulled back.She lost her balance and fell into the man's arms.As she fell, she instinctively reached out to support herself.She felt something change under her hand.Jordan jumped up as if she had been burned.She forgot there was a grill nearby, and as she was about to fall into it, she was pulled away by a force.She only heard a series of cracking sounds, and she landed on something soft but firm.When she looked closely, it was Westley's chest. She was in his arms, and his tall frame was completely shielding her.Before she could react, Buck and the others arrived.The area was crowded."Quick, put out the fire!""Call a doctor. Don’t move Mr. Howard. Help Mrs. Howard up."Jordan was stunned as she was pulled up.It was then that she saw the scene on the ground.The gr

    Frank took the soup from her hands and drank it in a few gulps.Then he pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately.It had been several days since they had been close like this.The heat built up quickly.By the time Charlotte reacted, she was already lying on the bed.She covered his mouth and gently pushed him away a little."Let's finish talking about the important things.""This is the important thing," Frank said as he moved her hand away and pressed it on top of her head. He bent down and started unbuttoning her blouse."Frank..."Charlotte's voice was broken by his actions.After several days of separation, his movements were obviously more intense.She couldn't hold back, and the corners of her eyes filled with tears, as the wave of emotions overwhelmed her...Zachary set the food on the dining table and went to the bedroom to carry Jane out.But Jane wanted to walk by herself, and Zachary helped her sit down.Jane picked up her cutlery and started eatin
