"That's it?" asked Alana.

"That's it," replied Alex.

Alex looked at her. "What about your young boyfriend?"

Alana had a young mixed-race boyfriend in her social circle. He was different from the person she had been seeing just half a month ago.

"If you don't leave, how’s going to show up?" said Alana.

Alex asked calmly, "Where did you find this actor?"

Alana was puzzled. "Actor?"

"Not an actor? Are you really changing boyfriends every two weeks? Alana, you don't do that."

Knock knock—

A lively young man opened the door from outside. Seeing the situation inside, he hesitated, knocked on the door, looked at Alana with a flirtatious smile, and said in fluent Engrian, "Alana, are we playing a game that involves three people today?"

Alex's face darkened!

The speed of his mood change was comparable to the weather.

Alana glanced at Alex. "What do you think, Mr. Jackson?"

"Stop fooling around!" Alex's expression darkened further as he directly opened her suitcase and stuffed cloth

    "You wouldn't understand even if I told you.""Try me.""Chasing after the one you love." Alana gave him a sidelong glance and muttered quietly, "You've never truly liked anyone, so how could you understand?"Alex's expression suddenly darkened, and he seemed momentarily lost in thought. "Who told you I've never loved anyone?""Who?" Alana smiled, her tone flirtatious and teasing. "Me?"That day, I got up holding the drowsy Danny and took him into the bathroom to brush his teeth.Julie was already in the kitchen making breakfast, and the sweet aroma of oat porridge filled the air."Charlotte!"Jane suddenly burst out of the guest room, frantically searching for me with her phone in hand. She stood at the bathroom door, jumping up and down with excitement. "We're famous again, completely famous!"I looked at her dark circles from a hangover and handed the toothpaste-squeezed toothbrush to Danny. "What?""The Charlotte Jewelry!" Jane handed me her phone. "Look! Last night, Yasm

    On the other end of the line, Yasmin's voice was warm with a hint of a smile. "Charlotte, thank you so much. The dress you designed was fantastic. As soon as the awards ceremony ended last night, a top luxury brand contacted Joanne to sign her as their global ambassador."Hearing this, I was even more delighted. "Really? That's wonderful!"For celebrities, especially someone at Yasmin's level, there was no need to take on ordinary endorsements. They should go for top luxury brands. However, it was rare for Cherian celebrities to be chosen by such brands, so even being an ambassador is something to boast about among fans. Let alone being a global ambassador.Though for Yasmin, this might just be an extra bit of good fortune rather than a significant achievement."It's true." Yasmin smiled slightly, her tone easing. She asked, "Once the contract is successfully signed, there will be a celebration party. May I invite you to attend?"For some reason, I detected a hint of caution in he

    The relationship between Charlotte and her seems pretty much settled...Of course, we would still go through the formalities, conduct the paternity test, and confirm the blood relationship thoroughly.During breakfast, Jane suddenly suggested that we consider opening a branch office in Jeswood. She had mentioned this to me before, but there hadn't been a pressing need for it. Jelaston was sufficient for the operations of the Charlotte Jewelry, so I thought it might be better to wait."Now that both the Charlotte Jewelry and you are completely popular, the company's scale is definitely insufficient."Jane, while sipping her porridge, analyzed clearly, "Our first offline store is in Jeswood. Once you return to the Shaw family, your focus will definitely be here. So, opening a branch office in Jeswood would be highly beneficial for both you and the Charlotte Jewelry."Without hesitation, I agreed, "I know."Yasmin had given us a boost. The financial data received earlier showed that

    Perhaps it was because life had been unusually smooth recently.When he mentioned Ryan, I was momentarily dazed, feeling as if it were a distant memory. These days, the Charlotte who was mired in pain and struggle seemed like a different person.Frank pinched my cheek. "What are you daydreaming about?""Nothing." I shook my head, unable to pinpoint my exact feelings, and followed his lead, asking, "What does this matter have anything to do with Ryan?"I was somewhat aware of Ryan's influence spreading into Jeswood. His help to Frank was beyond my expectations, but it seemed somewhat anticipated.He had never been a truly bad person. In fact, he could be considered a good person—good boss, good grandson, good adopted son, good half-brother... but he was not a good husband.Only I was left hurt in a world where everything seemed to fall into place.After finishing his meal, Frank acted casually but with clear signs of his upbringing. He took a napkin and said frankly, "It's a bit

    Then, Frank casually stood up, finished his soy milk in one gulp, and set the cup down. "In that case, Ms. Wilson, you must keep this retreat option open for me. If I can't make it, I'll come back to rely on you.""Uncle!"The little one, who was sipping milk from a bottle, looked at him with a hint of resentment, pouting. "Don't you have to go to work today?"Frank's tender expression faded, and he shot a sideways glance at the child. "Little brat, you're complaining already?"The child huffed lightly. "When you're here, Aunt is monopolized by you!"Frank was driven away by the child.After sending Frank into the elevator, the little one climbed onto me using hands and feet, and planted a kiss on my face. "Aunt, who do you like more, me or Uncle?"I chuckled. "Of course, it’s you."‘But I love your uncle,’ I added inwardly.As night fell, at the top-tier club in Jelaston.Located in a quiet area amidst the hustle and bustle, the club operated on a membership basis, with a si

    "Diana..." Ryan tugged at his thin lips, dragging out the name as if he were savoring the words.Diana dared not look directly at the man's pitch-black eyes, fearing she might give herself away. She only heard Ryan laugh coldly and ask sharply, "Who sent you?"Ryan could guess that someone who had had dealings with him and had ulterior motives was behind her.To cater to his preferences, naturally, there was no such thing as a free lunch.Diana was taken aback by how astutely the man saw through her. Her face turned pale as she took a deep breath and recited the lines she had prepared."No one sent me. I'm just here for a part-time job...""Miss West." Ryan, with his long legs crossed, took a drag from his cigarette, his chin lowered, with a cold and hard line to his jaw, his voice deep and menacing. "Since you're here, you must know who I am. I can find out anything that the person behind you can find out. Anything he can give you, I can give you. In other words, I'm known for m

    Felix believed his words were well-reasoned and justified, but the next second, he saw Ryan nod dismissively. "You have a point."Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Ryan's expression darkened as he extinguished the cigarette butt. "I'll break one of your legs for this, and then we'll consider it over."Felix suddenly clung to Ryan's leg, pleading desperately. "Mr. Frost, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have been so blinded. Please spare me..."The leg injury he had sustained last time in Jeswood had not fully healed, and now he was about to lose another leg!Realizing that pleading with Ryan was futile, he turned to Ian for help. "Ian, Ian! Help me, I'm begging you...""Serves you right."Ian didn't wait for Ryan to explode but ordered his subordinates to forcibly drag Felix away.Diana, pale-faced, felt the stark division of social classes in the world!Felix could easily manipulate her.But in front of Ryan, he was treated like a dog.With such a commotion, Ryan lost interest.

    Jeswood International Airport.Alana strode out of the airport in red high heels, bending down to get into the Rolls-Royce that had been waiting outside.As she moved, the long skirt fluttered, revealing a slender, fair calf.Alex's eyes darkened slightly as he thought about how that leg had been wrapped around his waist when he was with her the morning before.After leaving the airport motorway, the car drove straight towards the city center.Alana was in a good mood and hummed a tune softly.Just like in her own car."Hello?"Beside her, Alex suddenly took a phone call, his expression serious yet slightly excited. "Is the information accurate?""Okay, I understand! She's living in the Cloud now, right? Send me the address on WhatsApp."After hanging up, Alana glanced at him. "So excited, did your second uncle pass away?"Alex's second uncle had been causing trouble and setting traps for him, even kidnapping Danny.The thought of Danny's injuries at that time made Alana gr

    "She's originally from abroad, it's hard to catch her." Frank waved his hand and said to Zachary, "Take care of it. I'm going to have some fun for a while. Once you're better, you can handle the aftermath." Zachary nodded. After Frank left the hospital room, Zachary told everyone to go home. "I'm fine, just a stomach cramp. It's not serious." Rebecca held his hand, hesitant to speak. Zachary took the initiative and said, "Don't worry. I've already cleared things up with Jane. Even if we run into each other in the future, we won't greet each other. We'll be strangers from now on." Outside the hospital room, Jane withdrew her hand from the door, turning to speak to Charlotte. "No need to go in. He's fine." After getting in the car, Charlotte looked at her. "You should stay at Region Gardens for a while." "Once Zachary and Frank finish dealing with the Sanchez family, you can move back to your own place. The Sanchez family has deep roots, and I'm worried that if

    They were eager to see Zachary and hadn't had the chance to speak yet. "Was it Zachary who took Lexi away?" Frank nodded. "He said he would handle it personally, so it should be him handling it." "If the Sanchez family is inconvenient for you, I can take care of it." Just as Eric was about to speak, Mr. and Mrs. Sanchez arrived at the hospital room. They looked quite angry. "Eric, we've known each other for so many years. Even if we can't have a marriage alliance, don't harm my daughter." He unlocked his phone and handed it to Eric. Eric saw the image of Lexi tightly bound. He frowned. Zachary was still unconscious at this moment. Who sent this photo? Ross entered shortly after, answering his question. He heard Ross tell Frank. "The Winston family took her." The Winston family was the Collins family's greatest enemy. And the enemies who had nearly taken Jane's life in Heliafield were the most loyal followers of the Winston family. Thinking b

    Charlotte patted her head. "First, make a video call to that little girl." Jane quickly found her phone and opened the landlord's WhatsApp. As soon as the call connected, the little girl appeared on screen, her eyes red. Tears were still visible on her face. The landlord was sitting next to her, waiting, not having gone to sleep. Jane apologized, "Sorry to disturb your rest." "Don't say that." The landlord gently patted her daughter's head. "I'm just happy you're alright." Jane smiled at the little girl. "Thanks to Celine, I'm fine." The little girl leaned closer to the screen. "Jane, you're lying. Your lips are swollen." Jane cleared her throat. "I ate something spicy earlier." She quickly added to prevent the little girl from saying anything else, "Alright, go to sleep now. We'll talk more when you get out of school. Jane went through a lot today, and she's tired too." The little girl, very understanding, handed the phone to her mother and went to bed

    The captain laughed. "Don't think that just because we're from abroad, we don't understand anything.""Young lady, if you want to buy some time, then I'll play along with you. But if you're hoping for someone to rescue you, I advise you to give up on that thought. This is the border. Domestic ships can't get through here."Well, you don't know Frank.There's no one who can stop him from going where he wants to go.Jane tried her best to suppress her fear. "Sir, I have all kinds of tricks. If I can make you guys happy, can you spare my life?"She reached out, grabbed the captain's belt, and moved closer."As long as you don't kill me, you'll be my savior. I'll be yours from now on and let you have your fun with me. Is that okay?"Although Jane hadn't dressed herself up recently.But her facial features were stunning. Those fox-like eyes with a smile in them were even more alluring.The captain kept swallowing saliva. Apparently, he was attracted.However, they had already rece

    They were anxious, not just because of the situation, but because they feared Zachary would go mad and go abroad with Jane. Frank glanced at their expressions and immediately understood that they were aware of Lexi's plan to send Jane abroad. "I suggest that while Zachary is looking for Jane, you should take care of the Sanchez family's matters. Otherwise, when Zachary comes back, there will be hell to pay." Jane ate the meal the waiter brought and then felt drowsy. She fell into a light sleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already half past nine. She remembered the things she had told the little girl before leaving and quickly grabbed her phone to call. But just then, the door was suddenly kicked open. Several adult men stormed in and grabbed her, dragging her outside. "What are you doing?" They had originally planned to reach the border, but unexpectedly, a violent storm had forced a slight course change. This delay allowed the effects of th

    Lexi said, "The plane will leave traces. By then, Zachary will find you. The ship will change at the border and private sea areas. Once she changes ships, it will be hard to track." Jane remembered when Jack had taken Charlotte away before. She felt a sense of unease. After all, Lexi wasn't someone she could fully trust. "I didn't expect you to be so timid." Lexi noticed Jane's worry. "I thought someone with your background, who dared to pursue someone as different as Zachary, and even date him, would have extraordinary courage." But wasn't Jane regretting it now? Otherwise, why would she be running away? She decided not to care anymore. With a firm heart, she boarded the ship. Lexi smiled in satisfaction, but then a cold glint appeared in her eyes as she spoke to the captain. "When we reach the border, throw her into the sea and feed her to the sharks." No matter where she went, as long as Zachary wanted to find her, it was just a matter of time.

    Lexi was so angry that she wanted to smash something. She got up and walked away, with each step of her high heels hitting the ground, the sound echoing her immense fury. The more difficult it was to conquer, the more determined she became to conquer it! Zachary went directly back to the Collins family home. The Collins family members were somewhat uneasy. When they saw him come back alone, they were both shocked and suspicious. "Did Lexi not come back with you?" asked Rebecca. Zachary did not respond and walked upstairs with long strides. Rebecca, along with Sir Collins and Madam Collins, exchanged gazes, all feeling something was off. It was strange that Zachary had actually returned to the Collins family. "Sean." Rebecca saw someone else entering behind him and immediately asked, "Did you follow him the whole time? Did you notice anything unusual?" Sean bent slightly, his face carrying a polite smile as he respectfully replied, "No abnormalities w

    The situation between Zachary and Jane's relationship had not been made public. It was normal for the employees at the company not to know about it. Zachary did not answer when people congratulated him, and Lexi stood silently by his side, not saying anything either. But to those around them, their actions were as good as an admission.Some people even offered their congratulations, but Zachary didn't acknowledge them. He didn't go upstairs. Instead, he turned and left the building. This time, he didn't even get into Lexi's car. The smell inside the car was too overwhelming, making him dizzy.Lexi followed him, and they entered a nearby cafe. He didn't go straight to Jane's place, but Lexi knew that was just a way of hiding his true intentions. However, she wasn't concerned. After all, the Collins family would never approve of him being with Jane. She just needed to give him a bit of time to play along."Mr. Collins, aren't you going to consider my suggestion?" Lexi asked with a sli

    The shock from the Collins family was too much for her. She wouldn't take the initiative, nor would she have the courage to continue with him.So what other way did he have?He'd tried both soft and hard tactics, yet this situation was still more complicated than advanced mathematics.The next day.Lexi invited Zachary out.But the Collins family hesitated.Rebecca said, "Why don't you two spend some more time getting to know each other at home first?"Lexi smiled. "Mrs. Collins, I know what you're worried about, but that woman is no longer in Jeswood."Rebecca was aware of this.After all, they had been keeping an eye on Jane's movements. They even knew where she was staying.It was surprising that Lexi had just returned a day ago, yet she had already figured it out.This kind of method and family background was exactly what the Collins family needed.It was also what Zachary needed."I've erased all traces.
