Tears welled up in my eyes and I said, "There's no need…""Alright, alright." Yasmin smiled and said, "Since Frank needs to find the antidote and probably doesn't have much time to be with you, how about I bring you and your… grandma to the Cloud to stay?"Hearing this, even more tears welled up in my eyes, and my nostrils began to sting.Even though the Shaw family was the one at fault, she was willing to bring Grandma and me to the Cloud for my sake.And I hadn't even shared the big news of my pregnancy with her in a timely manner…I shook my head repeatedly. "No need, Mom. Jane is here with me, and I don't want you to cause inconvenience for yourself for my sake.""You…" Yasmin, hearing my refusal, didn't press the issue. "Then when Grandma gets better, should you come and spend some time with me?"I immediately agreed, "Of course! I'll stay with you until you're tired of me and ask me to leave. I won't leave, ever."Her tone softened with affection. "Well, I’ll keep that in

Christine intended to leave the hotel and head to Jeswood to find Yasmin. However, paparazzi were like wild dogs when there was news, and she might not be able to leave the hotel without any trouble. For now, all she could do was wait."Go get me something to eat. I'm hungry," said Christine.Riley, suppressing her grievances, nodded in agreement. But just as her hand touched the door handle, the door was suddenly knocked on. She was startled.Christine was also startled and quickly hid inside the room, telling her to find out who it was.Riley looked through the peephole and saw a man in a security uniform outside, but she didn't make a sound and let him continue knocking.Christine became anxious. "Why aren't you responding?"Riley didn't have time to stop him.The man stopped knocking and spoke through the door, "Hello, I'm a hotel security guard. There have been complaints about noise from upstairs. I'm here to check the situation. Could you please open the door?"This was

"Get back her god damn it!"After shouting those words, Christine was scared that there would be more reporters, so she quickly shut the door.Remembering her assistant's words, she fished her phone out from the mess. The top trending topic had already changed to "Yasmin Denies Christine's Background."Christine lost all her strength and stumbled. At that moment, she couldn't think of anything else and instinctively dialed Jack's number...The call went unanswered until a cold, mechanical voice came on.Christine persisted, calling again and again. But each time, it was unanswered and automatically disconnected."Ah!" Christine broke down, screaming in frustration. In her panic and anger, she threw her phone against the wall, and the screen shattered into pieces.This time, it wasn't that Jack wasn't answering. He simply didn't have the chance, even though the phone was right in front of him.Frank lounged casually on the central sofa, his legs crossed, as if he were in his own

Frank's gaze fell on the tea canister next to the teapot. Jack noticed his attention and tried to stand up with great effort, but the pain from his injuries left him too weak to succeed.Frank took a handful of tea leaves and scattered them over Jack. He gave a knowing smile and said, "Looks like I was right."Jack exerted all his strength to stand up, trying to snatch the black glass jar containing the only antidote from Frank's hands. But even breathing was difficult for him, let alone grabbing anything.Frank's light movement was enough to keep Jack from reaching it."Do you think you've won?" With each word Jack spoke, his heart and lungs ached, but he still managed to say, "Let's not discuss the rest. This time, you can’t win. Charlotte will definitely be mine."Frank raised his hand and slightly moved his index finger.Alan immediately stepped forward to restrain Jack. Frank picked up a fruit knife from the coffee table, knelt in front of Jack, and tapped his face with th

I didn't want to be constantly worried, so I agreed obediently, "Okay, I understand."Yasmin said softly, "Alright, get some rest. Pregnant women shouldn't stay up late.""You too," I replied.After hanging up, I had just put down my phone when I heard the sound of the door opening. I immediately headed toward the door, while Jane and Grandma exchanged glances.Grandma said, "Come with me to see the flowers I've been growing."Jane played along. "Sure."The person who came back was, of course, Frank.I opened my arms to hug him, but he stopped me by pressing down on my shoulders, saying, "I'm dirty. I need to shower first."That didn't sound right. Even though I was pregnant and he was worried about germs affecting the baby, he had been out running errands, not working at a construction site. How dirty could he be?Just as I was about to ask, a small black medicine bottle appeared in front of me.My eyes lit up. "The antidote?""Yep."He cocked his brows with an air of arro

Frank laughed. Given that we had to consider Grandma and Jane, he decided to end the topic, stopping the conversation in the room just a wall away.Seeing that it was best to drop the subject, I picked up the medicine bottle he had left on the coffee table. "I'm going to give the antidote to Grandma.""Okay."Seeing him nod, I stood up and headed towards Grandma's room, only to find him following. "Let's go together," he suggested.Jane was playing cards with Grandma. When Frank and I entered, we saw Grandma happily collecting a large pile of cards, looking as delighted as a child who had received candy.At that moment, I felt that no matter what sacrifices were made, as long as Grandma could live healthily and happily, it was all worth it.I lifted the small medicine bottle and, feeling relieved, said, "Grandma, Frank brought the antidote for you."Jane looked at the bottle. "Is it really the antidote? Don't tell me Jack tampered with it again…"I hadn't thought about that.

When we arrived at the hospital, Prof. Kilburn was already waiting.After we got Grandma settled into the examination room, Dr. Travis arrived at the hospital as well. I hurried over, saying, "Thank you for coming all this way at such an hour."Dr. Travis waved his hand. "It's no trouble. Studying medicine is all about curing and saving people. Doing this is just my duty."Dr. Travis and Prof. Kilburn entered the examination room together. Frank helped me sit down. "Are you feeling unwell?"I shook my head. "No."Frank gently rubbed my back, soothing me. "That's good."I knew that seeing Grandma spitting out blood must have made him worry. After all, he had brought back the antidote, and despite multiple confirmations, it was still unsettling.I held his hand and looked into his eyes. "Frank, Grandma will be fine. The medicine you brought back won’t have any problems."Frank seemed to silently breathe a sigh of relief. "Even after Grandma has spat out blood, you still trust me

Grandma chuckled lightly. "I know, I know.""Okay." I then turned to Frank. "Let's go home. First, let's drop Jane off."Unexpectedly, Jane waved her hand. "I'll stay here. I have nothing to do, so I'll stay at the hospital with Grandma. That way, you won't have to worry about not being able to eat or sleep properly at home, affecting the growth and development of my goddaughter."I couldn't help but laugh. "You’re exaggerating.""If I say it's necessary, it is." Jane pushed me out of the ward. "It's getting late. Go home, take a bath, and get a good night's sleep. Remember to bring me my food tomorrow afternoon!""Alright, I'll bring them for you," I agreed, feeling a bit touched. "Thank you, Jane."I knew that asking me to bring lunch was just a way to help me feel more at ease.Jane pretended to be unhappy. "What? Now that you have a man, you're being distant with your best friend?"I quickly denied, "No, not at all!"Jane cocked her brows. "Since it's not the case, why don

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."
