“I’ve already had someone look into who she had been in contact with before,” said Yasmin.“That’s hard to look into.” Frank was certain and continued, “When you went to find Charlotte yesterday, it was probably seen by someone with ulterior motives. They’ll likely be much faster at erasing traces than we are at investigating.”“In that case, the best solution is to keep this matter under wraps for now. After a few days, when the suspicion has died down, we can follow the clues more easily.”“But my mom and I have been in contact more than just a designer-client relationship yesterday and today.”“The other party’s suspicion might not be so easily dispelled, right?” I asked.The methods of the behind-the-scenes person were similar to those from two years ago. Both were deeply hidden, with enough scheming to not easily let go of their concerns.Alex squinted his eyes. “Yasmin, what do you think about publicly acknowledging Charlotte as your goddaughter first?”“That way, we can p

Bethany smiled and pretended to stop her. “Forget it, Carrie, don’t underestimate her. She might end up with some rich husband and getting support from someone later.”“Bethany, you’re the daughter of the Shaw family! Are you really afraid of her? You said she’s an orphan. Even if she’s good at attracting rich men, who would actually marry her?”Carrie Harrison sneered. “Anyone invited by Ms. Jackson is from a family that values social standing. At most, they might play around with her. No one would turn against us for an obscure lover.”The young man who had previously approached me couldn’t stand it any longer and spoke up for me, “No, she was just introduced by Ms. Jackson…”“Enough,”People of this social tier generally looked down on ordinary celebrities. No matter how popular one was, it ultimately depended on capital.Bethany interrupted him. “I know you want to say she knows Ms. Jackson…”“What?” Carrie suddenly looked alarmed, “She knows Ms. Jackson? Why didn’t you say

After giving my instructions, I decided not to bother and headed straight to find Jane.“Why should I leave?” Carrie, after hearing the security's straightforward eviction notice, looked at me with suspicion and asked, “Who… who is she?”Bethany glared at me with hatred and then turned to the security, “Oh! Now I get why a mere designer can stay here so long. It's because she has an affair with you, isn’t it?”“Please watch your language!”The security guard frowned, “Ms. Wilson is an esteemed guest. Your insults…”“Esteemed guest?”Carrie’s expression grew more anxious. “She, she’s someone’s esteemed guest? Could it be… Ms. Jackson?”But after saying that, she looked a bit doubtful.Bethany was even less convinced. Now that she was being expelled and the guests who had been watching the scene started whispering among themselves, she felt humiliated and quickly became red with anger. She stormed over to me, gritting her teeth, “Charlotte, what trick are you playing now! Even if

The people present exchanged glances, with some having their mouths hanging open in shock.After all, Frank and Ryan were both significant figures. No one there was unafraid of them.Everyone tacitly understood that the Harrison family was finished!Carrie was stunned, glancing between Frank and Ryan, unable to utter a word of pleading. In the next moment, she suddenly looked at me with a pale face, panic-stricken, and said, “Ms… Ms. Wilson… I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have looked down on you or insulted you. Please, hit me if you want, just please!”She was nearly in tears, no longer concerned about the dignity of a young lady. “I really know I was wrong. I beg you, please let Mr. Smith and Mr. Frost spare my family… I came here hoping to collaborate with Ms. Jackson, but instead, I’ve brought trouble to my family. My father will kill me!”Yes, I knew she wasn’t exaggerating.In such families, children who enjoy wealth and power must also pay the corresponding price. If they not only

Frank noticed her too and frowned slightly, then looked at me and said quietly, "Charlotte, I have some business to discuss with Mr. Frost. Can you check on why Jane hasn’t come up yet?""Okay." I nodded, left straightaway, and called Jane while waiting for the elevator.Anyone could see the undercurrents between these two formidable figures.Ex-husband, current boyfriend…Anyone who dared to approach them at that moment would consciously steer clear and give them space.Frank pressed his tongue against his cheek, clearly ready to erupt but reluctant to cause a scene in front of his future mother-in-law. He sneered and said, “Mr. Frost, can we have a word in private?”“Sure.” Ryan looked at Charlotte’s distant figure, his fingers slightly curled.He had expected that Charlotte might show some emotional reaction with another woman around him. To his surprise, she didn’t seem to care at all!It was as if, for her, the past was simply the past.To her, he was just an ordinary ex-

The girl next to her said, “What else could it be? It’s definitely Elena from the Charlotte Jewelry! I just didn’t expect that she would be such a young and beautiful woman!”“I didn’t see you speaking up for her earlier. Now you’re praising her.”“What could I have been able to do?”The girl next to her gave her a sidelong glance. “Did you forget what you and Carrie and Bethany said earlier? If I had helped her, you would have probably cursed me as well.”It was only natural to protect oneself.“No...”She didn’t argue, muttering, “Originally, my mom was trying to get another spot for a private commission with Elena, but now that I’ve messed things up… I’m afraid it’s impossible for the rest of our lives.”“Not necessarily.” Another girl spoke up, “She doesn’t seem like the type to hold grudges. She probably won’t hold it against someone like you who doesn’t have much sense.”The people around were also discussing among themselves.The dinner hadn’t ended yet, and I had alrea

Diana was stunned for a moment.This was indeed not what she had anticipated!Ryan smiled, his pitch-black, deep-set eyes showing no hint of scrutiny, calmly seeing through Diana.With just one glance, Diana awkwardly lowered her head, avoiding his gaze!This man was too intimidating!Playing games of pretending to be weak and then seizing an opportunity was a big mistake in front of someone as perceptive as him…Ryan leisurely extinguished his cigarette. His voice was hoarse, yet his aura remained penetrating. “Why do you think I’ve brought you here today?”Diana’s heart was pounding, not out of anything else, but out of fear and nervousness.Ryan looked down at her, methodically peeling away her thoughts, “Seeing Charlotte, did you think you could be a substitute?”She gripped the hem of her dress tighter to control her trembling, but it was likely futile. She forced herself to look up at Ryan. “Then, Mr. Frost, can I?”Ryan sneered, not providing a direct answer, only utte

Frank gave me a sidelong glance, not responding and maintaining his firm grip, not allowing me to withdraw. He took out his phone and made a call.In a short while, a waiter brought in iodine swabs and an ointment.Frank broke the swab, gently applied iodine to my wound, his long eyelashes casting shadows over his emotions. His voice, though somewhat muffled, was clear. “I can’t change how you lived before, but from now on, you need to take good care of yourself.”“Where you are careless, I will handle things for you.”I felt a shiver inside, my eyes welling up with tears. I pursed my lips, finding myself on the verge of crying.It turned out that people cried not only when they were sad.Before I could speak, the man’s large hand, which had always claimed to be incapable of handling delicate tasks like treating wounds, was now applying the ointment with skill. He was more meticulous than he ever was while signing billion-dollar contracts.The cool ointment spread through my lim

"Jane, don't argue with Zachary. This time, I am staying here voluntarily," said Jordan."I’ve made a bet with Westley, and there will be a resolution in the end."Jane nodded. "I can let you handle this matter yourself, but you have to promise me that you won’t let yourself get hurt, and you won’t just keep sacrificing yourself. If it becomes unbearable, give it up. I’ll always be here to support you."Jordan nodded. "Okay."The two sisters chatted for a long time, and only when Jane started to feel sleepy did they end the video call.Jordan handed the phone to Buck and closed the door to her room.Buck was left standing there.He felt like he had been completely abandoned, as if everything around him had fallen apart.Anyway, as a sandwich in the middle, he was already crushed, so it didn’t matter anymore.For several days, Jordan got up to eat, and the food was always food prepared by the chef.She hadn’t seen Westley around.She couldn’t really say how she felt. She just

"He is faking his psychological illness," Jordan rebutted.Even if he had one, it had nothing to do with her.Even she didn’t have any psychological issues, how could someone with such a strong mind like Westley have any psychological issues?He shouldn’t blame her for everything.Having seen enough, she turned around and walked away.But Carter called her back. "He once took good care of you, and you're going to be this heartless?"Jordan wasn’t familiar with Carter. He was usually a man of few words with a cold personality.If she greeted him, he wouldn’t respond. If she talked too much, she might get an icy look in return.She really didn’t expect that one day, he would try to mediate between her and Westley."You should focus more on your own matters," she said.His own love life was a mess, so what right did he have to interfere in hers?Jordan’s emotions were written all over her face, she didn’t hide them.Carter could guess how she was feeling just by looking at her

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
