At that moment, I could only comply and said, "Okay, I agree.""First, let her put Grandma down. If she doesn't, not only will you get nothing, but you'll also end up in prison."Ben looked at Simone. “Let Mom go now.”Simone, wary, scanned the hospital room and instructed, "Get these bodyguards out."Frank raised his hand.Once the bodyguards exited the room, Simone said, "Move my daughter closer to me!"Hearing this, Alan, following Frank's gesture, went over and placed Bethany on the bed near the window. After a quick look, he turned and gave Frank a signal."Frank."Zachary entered and handed a brown paper bag to Frank.He glanced briefly at Jane but didn't linger.Frank gave the paper bag to Ben, who quickly took it and examined it carefully, confirming it twice before signing.Then he immediately walked toward Simone.However, he was stopped by Alan."Put Grandma down," Frank said coldly.But Simone pulled out a syringe, its cold, sharp needle pressed against Grandm

Frank patted my head and said, "I'll handle it. Don't worry. You can't get too emotional right now.""Charlotte!" Jane suddenly shouted, startling me.Frank, who had been maintaining his usual calm, immediately panicked when he followed Jane's gaze.I had never seen such a helpless expression on his face before.The next moment, Frank quickly picked me up. I could feel the wetness between my legs. Blood was already streaming down them.I grabbed his arm. "The baby…""It'll be alright," Frank said in a serious tone, trying to reassure both me and himself.Being so close to him, I could clearly feel the irregularity in his heartbeat.As we entered the emergency room, I saw his hand shaking.Jane was injured and had difficulty walking. Zachary, for some reason, was moving slower than usual.She looked at the man ahead of her and couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you answer my calls?"Zachary remained indifferent. "It was too late. It wasn't convenient."Jane's temper flared u

I slowly ate the food that Frank was feeding me.While feeding me, Frank instructed, "The doctor said you need to rest well. After you're discharged, stay at home with Grandma. If you can't reach me, don't go anywhere."I nodded.There would definitely be more troubles ahead.Right now, I could do nothing but try not to hold Frank back.I looked up at his reddened eyes. "Why haven't you been answering my calls today?""I was so busy that I didn’t have time to return your calls."Hearing this, Frank instinctively began to explain. I sighed. "So you haven't even had time to eat?"Frank's lips curved into a pleased smile. "I thought you were going to accuse me, but it turns out you're concerned about me?"I took the spoon from his hand, fed him some food, and said, "Why would I accuse you? More than anything else, I'm concerned about your health."Frank swallowed the food in his mouth, cocked his brows slightly, and said meaningfully, "Don't worry. My health will ensure your hap

Grandma called my name, but she looked at me as if she was looking at a stranger."Grandma…""Grandma, what's wrong?"I tried to hold Grandma's hand again, but she pushed it away.Slap—The force was strong, leaving a visible red mark on the back of my hand.I was completely stunned.After all, Grandma would never treat me like this.She usually just patted me affectionately and had never hit me this hard."What's wrong?"When Frank entered the room, he saw my dazed expression.I reached out to him and then pointed at Grandma.Seeing the red mark on the back of my hand, Frank's eyes immediately became cold.But in the room, apart from me and Grandma, there was no one else.Frank frowned, unable to believe what was going on. "Grandma hit you?"I nodded. "Grandma seems not to recognize me. When I tried to hold her hand, she wouldn't let me."The coldness in Frank's eyes was replaced by concern. He called for the doctor and also notified Prof. Kilburn.Although the red ma

When Jane learned about Grandma's condition, she was somewhat incredulous."How could this happen?"Seeing my downcast mood, she comforted me. "The world is unpredictable. However, Grandma has supported the Shaw family, which shows how strong and stable she is deep down. So, you don't need to worry too much. With Prof. Kilburn and Dr. Travis around, even if they can't cure her, they can at least stabilize her condition. Grandma has always been so good to you. I believe she wouldn't just forget you."I couldn't be that optimistic. "Grandma might not forget, but this illness is so irrational."Jane was somewhat familiar with Alzheimer's disease. Elderly people with this condition could undergo drastic personality changes and it was common for them to become violent. They often refused to listen to anything and may wander off alone, sometimes would get lost if they reached the streets or other dangerous places.Taking care of someone with this illness was much more challenging than w

Hearing this, I forced a bitter smile, "It seems Ben's true nature was never good. Otherwise, how could he be so easily swayed by Simone to turn against his own mother and daughter?"Jane agreed, "True, but you don't need to worry too much about this. Frank won't let them get away with it.""Let them be proud for a while. They'll only be more miserable when they fall."As Jane and I talked, we drifted off-topic. Before falling asleep, she suddenly remembered something. "By the way, Charlie was drunk a few days ago and said he wanted to tell me a secret about Zachary. But Zachary showed up suddenly and scared him so badly that he became sober. No matter how much I questioned him, he wouldn't tell me. Can you ask your husband about it? He must know.""Sure," I agreed. Frank, Zachary, and Charlie grew up together like brothers. If Charlie knew, Frank would certainly have the inside information.Just as I picked up my phone to message Frank, the screen lit up with a message from him.

The next morning, Frank arranged for Alan to deliver breakfast to the ward. After Jane and I finished eating, a nurse came in to change her dressings. Jane didn't want me to watch. "Now that I'm you’re pregnant with my goddaughter, your mood affects her development. Don't look, okay? Just relax.""Alright."I couldn't argue with her. Just then, Yasmin called me, so I walked out of the ward."Charlotte, where are you? I came to see you, but Julie said you're not home."I suddenly remembered my mom had said that she would come by when she had time. I hadn't expected another incident to occur.I was initially worried about her getting anxious and considered lying, but then realized that lying would require more lies to cover up. Moreover, some issues inevitably involve the Jackson family's influence, and my uncle would probably inform her. If she found out I'd been lying to her, she'd be upset.It was better to tell the truth."At the Smith family’s hospital."Half an hour later

"Of course!" Yasmin agreed readily. She then stood up and said to me, "I'm going to check on your grandmother. Seeing you so worried and restless, and since I don't interact with her often, it shouldn't stimulate her too much. Maybe she'll still remember me."I nodded. "But can you promise me to tell me about any developments, no matter what? Don't hide anything. I can handle it.""You can handle it?" Yasmin tapped my forehead. "I asked Frank on the way here. He wouldn't lie to me, his future mother-in-law. You didn't tell me that you were rushed into the emergency room last night."I rubbed my nose.When I was being honest with her earlier, I had indeed left out that detail. Even though I was fine now, it would definitely be unsettling for my mom.Mainly, if she were worried, she would most likely disapprove of me staying at the hospital. She was already busy and had to divide her energy to deal with my issues. The matter with my grandmother shouldn't be something my mom had to h

“Let’s go back to the the Howard family’s residence.”“It’s too late, I don’t want to disturb them.”Jordan gritted her teeth. “Then let’s go to your house. It’s so big, we can each take a room and not disturb each other.”Westley calmly took a sip of tea. “It’s not very convenient.”Jordan’s temper flared. “Let’s just stay in a hotel!”Westley replied, “There are too many people watching me in Nelana. I don’t want to be misunderstood.”Jane and Charlotte exchanged a look.They both understood each other’s thoughts.Before, they had thought Westley was calculating and manipulative.He had always been clever at using tricks to handle Jordan.Now, they realized it wasn’t just that.This man had a thick skin—he could say anything without blinking.But they didn’t fully understand Westley’s intentions.He clearly had the chance to spend time alone with Jordan, perhaps to explain some things and clear the air.Yet he kept refusing.If he felt it was inconvenient, if he didn’t

At that moment, someone under Westley came to report.“Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Howard flew to Jeswood. They’re likely going back to celebrate Mr. Collins and Mrs. Collins’ wedding.”Westley immediately booked a flight as well.When Jordan saw Jane, she started venting her frustrations.As she spoke, her voice gradually faded, and she apologized, “I’m sorry. It’s your big day, and here I am talking about this.”Jane poured her a cup of tea. “It’s alright, I understand. I invited you to celebrate, which is sudden of me, considering you’re in the middle of a divorce.”Jordan shook her head. “I could use the good vibes. Hopefully, it’ll help me get the divorce finalized smoothly.”Zachary and Frank exchanged glances, wisely choosing not to get involved in the conversation.What they didn’t expect was for Westley to show up at such a critical moment.He even handed Zachary a gift. “Congratulations.”Zachary instinctively looked at Jane and saw her smiling faintly. His scalp tingled wi

Zachary had already planned for today.He didn’t take Westley’s words to heart.He assumed Frank would explain things to Charlotte.Who knew Charlotte actually accompanied Jordan to Nelana?“It’s not that, it’s just a coincidence.”Jane chatted with Charlotte and asked about Jordan’s situation.Charlotte said, “Westley didn’t show up, so the young girl is very angry right now. I’m taking her to get some photos taken.”“Then after you’re done, come back. How can I celebrate without you here?”Nelana and Jeswood weren’t far from each other. Charlotte checked the time and agreed.“If you’re hungry, just eat something first. Don’t keep waiting. Once I’m on the plane, I’ll let you know. You can roughly estimate the timing.”“Alright!”Jane hung up the phone and looped her arm around Zachary’s. “I want to eat a strawberry cake.”Zachary helped her into the car and instructed Ross to drive to a cake shop.He got out of the car himself to buy it.As Jane ate, she asked, “So if We

“I don’t care! I must go back and put on some makeup!” Jane declared.Ross, who would rather face Zachary’s wrath than make Jane unhappy, immediately prepared to turn the car around.But Zachary stopped him. “Keep driving.”He gently patted Jane’s back to calm her down.“I know you’re excited about getting the certificate, but don’t get so worked up—think about the baby.”Was that what he thought this was about?Jane grabbed Zachary’s ear. “Are you getting old and becoming deaf? I said turn the car around! If you keep pretending not to hear me, don’t even think about me taking a photo with you to get the certificate when we get there!”In the end, Zachary had no choice but to compromise.Jane hadn’t done her makeup in a while. With the sudden pregnancy, she hadn’t had the time to prepare maternity-safe cosmetics.So they went to the mall, where she bought what she needed and applied a full, flawless makeup look.Feeling beautiful and confident, she finally went to the Civil A

Jordan planned to return to Nelana right after breakfast.Yasmin tried to persuade her to stay a few more days.But she was eager to return and finalize her divorce.Charlotte decided to accompany her since she hadn’t had the chance to visit Dominic and look at the finished products after Jane’s recent accident.Frank wanted to tag along, but Charlotte stopped him. “You stay here and handle things.”Frank sneered. “You’re just tired of me and keep coming up with reasons to stay apart.”Charlotte had been hearing this from him a lot lately and was immune to it by now.She patted his shoulder, linked arms with Jordan, and walked away.Frank was rendered speechless‘Fine.’Westley had never drunk so much alcohol before.Although he wasn’t completely wasted, there were still some things he remembered clearly.However, his headache was intense.Buck brought him some water, asked about his schedule, and reported on the events of the night before.Westley paused while drinking t

She could say nothing more.Moreover, even if she said something, it would be useless.Zachary achieved his goal and turned to leave.After the door to the ward closed, Rebecca picked up a piece of yellowing apple to eat.The old lady of the Collins family sighed, “We didn’t raise him in vain.”Rebecca wiped away tears, she still couldn’t bring herself to like Jane.But Zachary was her only son. At this point, there was nothing she could do to stop him.She could only look the other way and let it go.She said to Eric, “Jeswood is too cold. Take me to Clisfield. This is what you’ve promised me.”Spring had already arrived in Jeswood, it wasn’t cold at all.But Eric still immediately arranged for tickets to be booked.There were still several months before Zachary and Jane’s wedding.In the meantime, she could relax and gradually come to terms with things as time passed.Eric looked at the elderly couple. “Mom, Dad, come with us. The weather there is warm year-round.”Zach

If this were Jane, just a single cough would send him into a panic.Rebecca felt that Zachary now cared more about Jane than her.“Even if Jasper isn’t her biological father, how can you be so sure her real parents are good people? What if...”Zachary finished slicing the apple into small pieces, placed them on a plate, and handed it to his mother.His tone was unhurried. “I can accept anything. As I said before—I will marry no one but her.”Rebecca didn’t take the plate, so Zachary set it aside.The apple, left untouched, began to oxidize and turn brown.Zachary lightly tapped the apple with the fruit knife and said, “There are more than one path in front of me.”Rebecca opened her mouth to speak, but Zachary interrupted her.He pulled out a photo and handed it to her.“The Collins family doesn’t only have me for the official route. There is a sister who can take my place.”Rebecca was stunned. “What sister?”Zachary produced a document. “A recently acknowledged goddaughte

“I forgive you, I forgive you.” Jane ruffled his hair. “Such juicy gossip is worth forgiving. But I’m warning you, don’t try to trick me again next time.”Zachary raised his hand. “I promise.”Jane was satisfied. She ate her fill, felt sleepy, and went to bed.Zachary tucked her in carefully and planted a kiss on her forehead.“I’m heading to the hospital.”“Okay.”At midnight, Raymond released the results of the paternity test.Originally, not many people were paying attention to Jasper’s situation anymore.After all, so much happens every day, and with Zachary’s maneuvering, the buzz had already died down.But as soon as the paternity test result was revealed, it caused an uproar.“I knew it. With the way he was behaving, how could the child be his? And yet, he dared to make such a fuss.”“All those people defending Jasper should apologize!”“Unbelievable. This scum is still alive and even dared to go online to play the victim. If I ever see him, I’ll make sure to give hi

Jane felt that Zachary had too many tricks up his sleeve.Moreover, she felt that it was better not to fully trust men.There was no such thing as absolute honesty.Even she couldn’t achieve that herself.Jane leaned back against the sofa, looking into his eyes.Her stare made Zachary feel a chill down his spine. He cleared his throat and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”Jane gave a sarcastic smile.Zachary was rendered speechless.He tactically glanced at his watch and asked, “Are you sleepy?”“Nope.”“Hungry?”“Nope.”Jane raised her hand and patted his face. “Playing tricks on me?”This feeling was like looking at himself.For a moment, Zachary didn’t know how to react.The corners of his lips twitched slightly as he said, “I’m just trying to discuss things with you.”“Oh, okay.” Jane nodded. “I believe you.”He realized he was wrong—he shouldn’t have tried to help Westley.Zachary hugged her, trying to appease her. “He deserves it. From now on, I won’
