I slapped him lightly. "Stop saying that, the baby might hear you."Frank clicked his tongue with a hint of grievance.I massaged his shoulders. "You've been working hard lately. Let me help you relax a bit."Frank took my hand. "Alright, this little bit of effort from you is like just scratching an itch."Seeing him back to his usual self, I said, "Grandma’s condition suddenly worsened and kept calling out for Ben. But I haven't mentioned Ben recently, nor have I shown her anything about him."Frank tossed his phone to me.I looked down and saw a news article.Even though I didn't have any personal feelings for Ben, seeing the word "dead" made my heart skip a beat."Is this real?" Frank took back his phone. "It almost became real."I asked, "Is Ben in your custody now?""In the ICU.""So you came back because you saw this?"Frank nodded. "I remembered that Grandma usually uses her phone after a nap. I thought you'd see it first."I felt a bit guilty. "My mom came, and I w

After dinner, Frank and I headed to the hospital together.I had packed some food for my mom, but when we arrived at the ward, no one was there.Grandma was already asleep, so there was nothing much to worry about for now.At this point, it all came down to whether Ben would survive.Frank took me directly to the ICU.I saw Yasmin standing there and walked over. "Mom."Yasmin looked at me. I was initially worried she might be upset by the situation, but her face was calm and emotionless.I didn't ask further, just pulled her to sit down. "Have something to eat.""Frank has told you everything, right?" asked YasminI nodded.Yasmin cursed, "He's a disaster.""If he had listened to the old lady even a little, things wouldn't have turned out this way.""I actually hope he survives, just to see how his beloved Simone is with someone else, and the daughter he's cared for all these years is someone else's. It's really satisfying."I looked at Frank, "Did you tell my mom all this

Because I was absolutely certain that this man cared more about me than I do myself, that was enough.Jane was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled. "You're really a hopeless romantic. But Frank is indeed worth it."She said this while refilling my glass with juice, and reminded me, "However, the design of the wedding dress should definitely be prioritized. After all, it's such an important occasion, it needs careful consideration.""Alright, I'll do as you say." I pretended to concede. Unexpectedly, with her fiery temperament, she immediately began discussing the design of the dress after finishing the meal. She was more anxious than the bride herself, afraid that I might regret something at the wedding.That night, my mom called to say she had to attend a film festival in the next few days and wouldn't be able to visit me."It's fine, Mom. Jane is here, and with Julie cooking at home and Frank's people around, I'm well taken care of."Yasmin felt reassured and ended the ca

That night, kidnapping Grandma was highly risky. Kevin originally planned to poison Ben overnight, take the Shaw family's assets, and then leave that night with Simone and Bethany. With Luke's help in buying time, their escape could have gone smoothly. However, upon learning that Grandma had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, Kevin felt it was an act of god. So, he let his guard down. But this lapse gave Frank an opportunity.Kevin steeled himself and said coldly, "I don't have a wife or children."They were in a neighboring city the ship would soon reach the border. Frank's influence was limited to Jeswood.Kevin waved his hand and ordered, "Set sail."The ship began to leave."Frank…"Frank's subordinates were anxious!If the ship left Jeswood, finding them again would be difficult.But Frank remained impassive and made no move. He was too late, Kevin was already on the ship. Taking the ship by force now would only cause more harm than good. It wasn't necessary.Since Kevin

I smiled. "We still don't know the gender yet.""This is my hopeful wish. Of course, I would also cherish a godson," said Jane."Alright, go to sleep." She covered me with the blanket.I had been so tired, staying awake just to accompany Grandma. I fell asleep almost as soon as I closed my eyes. I had a dreamless night and slept very well.The next morning, I woke up hungry and vaguely smelled something delicious."Does it smell good?"Focusing my eyes, I saw Jane waving a tuna sandwich in front of me.I chuckled helplessly. "You're so childish."Jane took it as a compliment. "I am childish."She set up a small table and arranged the breakfast neatly."Where's Grandma?"I got up to check on Grandma and wash up, but the bed was empty."Grandma got up early. She didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly. After breakfast, she went to see Ben."I nodded and went to the bathroom.Jane followed, saying, "I wonder if Ben will be a good son after he wakes up this time.

Prof. Kilburn nodded. "Something like that."Immediately, my heart sank."Charlotte." I suddenly heard my mother's voice. I turned and saw her walking towards me, giving me a warm hug. "I missed you so much.""Mom!" I sighed in relief, feeling somewhat steadied. But before I could explain the situation to her, the door behind us suddenly opened.And then, I watched in disbelief as Ben grabbed my mother in a hug.He was grinning foolishly and called out, "Honey!"Me, Jane, and my mom were all gobsmacked.There was a brief silence, and then my mom let out a scream that nearly brought the whole hospital down.Fortunately, Ben was weak, and she managed to pull away with little effort."What the hell is going on?"My mom shuddered, continuously brushing herself off as if she had touched something filthy.Ben looked at Grandma with a hurt expression. "Mom, why?"My mom was at a lost for words.Grandma obviously hadn't fully accepted the situation either, but she knew what she wa

After I finished speaking, I realized something. "Did you already know about this?"Frank nodded.I couldn't help but mutter, "Then why were you pretending you didn’t?""How was I supposed to know you were calling to tell me this? I thought you just missed me," said Frank.I snorted but said, "I did miss you. Frank, it's just better when you're here."I bit my lip. "When will you be back?""Soon, just a day or two." Frank reassured me. "You don't need to worry about Ben. Grandma will definitely make sure he doesn't trouble you.""But what if Grandma wants to take him back to the Shaw family?""Then let her do that," Frank answered firmly. "That's beyond your control. Given Ben's condition, Grandma will be worried if she doesn’t take him back home.""But Grandma doesn't want to see you upset or add to your troubles. In the end, she'll choose to return to the Shaw family and take care of Ben herself."I pursed my lips. "Do you think there are any better neurologists?""You can

Jane accompanied me as we took Grandma and Ben back to the Shaw family's old residence.Ben was in a daze and was very clingy to Grandma. He would occasionally glance at me and smile foolishly but didn't say anything. He would call me "Sweetie" from time to time, and when he saw my mom, he called her "honey." My mom managed to suppress her urge to roll her eyes thanks to years of practiced composure.He also didn't ask for Simone or Bethany, and he never mentioned their names."Madam Shaw, you're back."As we brought Grandma into the old residence, someone came to greet us. She appeared to be a bit younger than Grandma but was clearly from the same generation. Taking care of Grandma would be no problem, but Ben was another matter...I suggested, "Grandma, let me find someone else to help you out, to share the burden."The Shaw family's residence used to have many servants, each with their own duties. Now, due to whatever trouble Simone caused, not a single servant could be seen

“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’
