Chapter 627

Author: Lean
After Jack left the cabin, I looked around the place. I found nothing. When I opened the door to go outside, I was surprised to see someone guarding it.

I suppressed my frustration and asked, "Are you from Senno's side or Jack's?" No one answered me. But if I dared to take a step forward, they would immediately block me.

On the other side, Frank's face was as dark as water, he had no interest in picking up his cutlery. No matter how much food Senno filled his plate with, Frank's patience was already thin, and his concern for Charlotte made it even scarcer. However, he had to buy some time to ease Senno's vigilance.

"I'm not hungry." Frank stood up and walked outside, glancing towards the shore before heading into the forest. Senno didn't stop him and followed along. But he was blocked at the entrance.

Frank had a gut feeling that Charlotte was nearby. "Don't think that just because I'm on this island, you can control me. I can't join the Valin family without seeing my wife."

    They thought it was Frank's unbearable temperament that had angered Senno. They even imagined how satisfying it would be to see Frank dead. Once that happened, they could take the Shaw family's assets from Charlotte and then eliminate her. It would be a double celebration.But what they saw was Frank pointing a gun at Senno. It was completely the other way around. The atmosphere by the shore was tense. Only Frank, the cause of the situation, stood relaxed with one hand in his pocket. Yet beneath that calm exterior, he was on high alert, especially not having seen Charlotte."I'll ask you one more time, where is she?"Senno raised his hand, signaling everyone to lower their guns. Frank was difficult to conquer, which only made people want to conquer him more."I'll take you to her."Senno returned to his usual self, smiling as he led Frank into the forest, not caring about the gun in his hand. After all, Frank wouldn't casually kill him without first finding that woman.What Senno

    He signaled me not to struggle. To trust him. He looked at me, softly saying, "I'm here, don't be afraid, okay?" I wasn't really afraid, but I had never wanted to hug him so much before. "Frank, you've seen the woman, can you come with me now?" Senno's smile faded significantly. This woman made Frank so gentle, he definitely couldn't let her stay alive. Jack was just right to take her away. Their goals would both be achieved. "Jack's mercenaries are different from me, they only care about money. If the money is right, they'll do anything." But just as Senno finished speaking, his trusted aide rushed in. "Boss, bad news! Kanby's people are coming!" "Kanby?" Senno looked at Frank, completely losing his smile. "I treated you sincerely, and you repay me like this?" "Go, tie him up for me." "Jack, take your people and get this woman far away." Jack didn't want to waste time here either. Frank could escape unscathed from Senno now that he had teamed

    Taking advantage of Jack loosening his grip, I slipped out of his arms. I was dumbfounded when I saw him arm hanging down and the gun on the ground.I took two steps back, but didn't feel any sense of relief. "Charlotte." Frank strode forward and pulled me tightly into his arms. I finally regained came back to my senses a little. "Frank..." All the anxiety and tension of the day, all the bad emotions, vanished in that moment. I felt an immense sense of security. It was something no one else could give me. Jane had wanted to step forward, but seeing us so tightly embraced, she just waited to the side. At that moment, a group of people suddenly arrived. The leader was still in uniform, shouting to everyone, "Don't move!" Senno had come to this island with only a small number of people, believing no one could enter his territory. But today, Frank brought Kanby. Kanby was well-prepared and Senno was completely defeated. "Frank..." As he closed h

    My head buzzed, and I watched as Jack fell straight in front of me. He coughed up blood but still smiled at me. Frank, who was tripped by Kevin, was a step slower than Jack. He saw Jack blocking the shot for me and froze for a moment before quickly coming over, covering my eyes with his hand. "Charlotte, don't look..."I instinctively shook my head and dazedly ran over. "Jack..."All the kindness Jack had shown me in the past surged back in an instant. Tears streamed down my face as I reached out to cover the gunshot wound that was gushing blood. I had no idea what to say.Alan helped Officer Locke capture Kanby, quickly controlling Kevin and Simone. With Frank's assistance, Officer Locke helped him deal with Kevin and Simone. Alan thanked them and sent them away.Jane came to me, holding my hand. "Charlotte..."Jack's face gradually turned pale, and he weakly smiled at me. "I'm fine, Charlotte... don't be afraid, I really am fine."When I was on the boat, I deeply regretted tr

    I had a dream. And it was a nightmare— In the end, I dreamt of my grandma, talking to me with a kind look on her face. But I couldn't understand what she was saying. It felt like she was saying goodbye. But why was she saying goodbye to me? "Grandma, don't go!" I saw my grandma leaving and I was shouting and chasing after her in my dream. She was walking slowly, but I couldn't catch up with her no matter what. Suddenly, the scene changed, and I began fall, which jolted me awake. "Don't move." I was covered in cold sweat, my calf held by some force. It hurt so much I frowned and gasped. Gradually calming down, I saw Frank massaging my calf. "You cramped up." I did cramp, but he reacted faster than I did. "Frank, how long until we get back to Jeswood?" Frank glanced at his watch. "Around eight or nine tonight." "I want to go see Grandma as soon as we get back." Frank paused, then said, "Okay." I felt something was off. "Are you

    I held her hand tightly. "The incident happened too suddenly, so you don't need to feel guilty. With the sound of the explosion and everything in chaos, I'm just grateful you weren't hurt.""You don't even know how powerful that explosion was. Zachary pulled me away because the chandelier fell. Later, when you and Frank went to the hospital, there were several more explosions. Ms. Jackson…"At that moment, Jane suddenly shut her mouth.I sensed something was off. "What happened to my mom?"Jane hesitated, clearly hiding something from me.Before I could press her further, there was a knock on the door.Jane immediately went to open it."Prof. Kilburn, please come in quickly."Prof. Kilburn thought Jane's demeanor made it seem like he was walking into a tiger's den.But he didn't think too much of it, assuming Jane was just worried about her friend.Even Prof. Kilburn had arrived, it still couldn’t take my mind off what Jane had just said.I saw Jane trying to slip away and c

    I rarely saw this kind of emotion from Frank.He seemed like he was about to break.“If Dr. Travis and Prof. Kilburn say the same thing, that I can’t be stimulated, will you still tell me the truth?”Frank didn’t want to lie, but he couldn’t help it.Grandma was too important.And this explosion was indeed caused by Jack, but if we were to investigate further, it was still because of them.Grandma was truly innocent.From the Shaw family to Jack, Grandma had endured so much.Frank had never been this… careful before.“I can be honest with you, but you… I know emotions can sometimes be uncontrollable, but you can’t be too agitated.”As I listened to Frank's words, my heart gradually sank.Combined with the dream I had earlier, I had a really bad feeling.It was a result I couldn’t even dare to think about, something I completely couldn’t accept.“Don’t tell me, Grandma…"‘No, it can’t be...’ I denied inwardly.Grandma was a good person. She should be alive and well.She

    Frank noticed that the person in his arms had stopped moving.Once he confirmed she was asleep, he gently laid her on the bed.Then he went to prepare a warm towel and wiped away her tear stains.After that, he quickly took a shower and climbed under the covers, pulling her back into his embrace.I had a long dream.From seeing Grandma to the days spent with her.Then came the kidnapping, the explosion…And Grandma passed away without me being able to see her one last time.Who should I blame?Blame Jack?But ultimately, I should blame myself.It was my lack of ability that failed to protect them.Grandma and the baby.The baby…“Charlotte…”I heard Frank calling me. He was standing not far away, looking at my abdomen with sadness in his eyes.His tone was one I had never heard before, so humble.“Do you really not want our baby anymore?”I quickly placed my hand on my belly. “What are you talking about? Our baby is still here…”But Frank seemed to not hear my words

    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

    Jordan had eaten and drunk enough and was about to return to her room.Westley called out to her."Wait a moment."Jordan ignored him and kept on walking.But Westley grabbed her arms and she was pulled back.She lost her balance and fell into the man's arms.As she fell, she instinctively reached out to support herself.She felt something change under her hand.Jordan jumped up as if she had been burned.She forgot there was a grill nearby, and as she was about to fall into it, she was pulled away by a force.She only heard a series of cracking sounds, and she landed on something soft but firm.When she looked closely, it was Westley's chest. She was in his arms, and his tall frame was completely shielding her.Before she could react, Buck and the others arrived.The area was crowded."Quick, put out the fire!""Call a doctor. Don’t move Mr. Howard. Help Mrs. Howard up."Jordan was stunned as she was pulled up.It was then that she saw the scene on the ground.The gr

    Frank took the soup from her hands and drank it in a few gulps.Then he pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately.It had been several days since they had been close like this.The heat built up quickly.By the time Charlotte reacted, she was already lying on the bed.She covered his mouth and gently pushed him away a little."Let's finish talking about the important things.""This is the important thing," Frank said as he moved her hand away and pressed it on top of her head. He bent down and started unbuttoning her blouse."Frank..."Charlotte's voice was broken by his actions.After several days of separation, his movements were obviously more intense.She couldn't hold back, and the corners of her eyes filled with tears, as the wave of emotions overwhelmed her...Zachary set the food on the dining table and went to the bedroom to carry Jane out.But Jane wanted to walk by herself, and Zachary helped her sit down.Jane picked up her cutlery and started eatin

    "Mr. Jackson, what are you talking about? Westley isn’t a fool. Since he managed to take Jordan from your turf in Impelia, it shows he was well-prepared. This preparation probably started a long time ago, and once he found out you were Jordan's cousin, he just sped up the process."Nathan caught the key point. "So, you and Zachary both guessed that Westley would take Jordan and make all the necessary preparations, but you didn’t say a word?"Frank leaned against the doorframe lazily and said, "I don’t know, I’m not close to Westley. As for Zachary, I’m not sure either. Recently, he’s been too busy with his wife and hasn’t been drinking with me anymore."Nathan didn’t believe him, but didn’t say much.Westley taking Jordan from him was his fault.When he was younger, he couldn’t protect his cousin from being taken away.Now, even with power in his hands, he still couldn’t do anything.He had to ask others for help."You keep searching abroad, I’ll assist you domestically."

    On the small table beside them, there were several bottles cluttered around.There were no labels on them.Jordan was cautious and didn’t drink immediately. She picked up a bottle, sniffed it to make sure there was no alcohol smell before inserting the straw and sipping slowly.Westley lit a cigarette, biting it at the corner of his mouth. He flipped the lamb skewers over and sprinkled them with cumin.Watching her unnecessary actions, he laughed. "It doesn’t really matter if you’re drunk or not. On my turf, if I want to do something, do you think you can resist?"Jordan paused.She suddenly remembered that the bet wasn’t clearly defined.“Westley, you said that if I’m moved, but before I’m moved, you can’t do anything out of line. You’re clear about that, right?”Westley handed her the grilled lamb skewer and flicked the ash off his cigarette.He glanced at her and said deliberately, "Wrong."Jordan took a big bite of the lamb skewer.She couldn’t help but exclaim, "So deli

    Jordan finished her meal and was taken away by Westley.They took a helicopter and then transferred to a ship.In the end, she had no idea where they were.The journey was bumpy, and after days and nights, she was physically and mentally exhausted.Yet, she refused to say a word to Westley.She buried herself under the blankets.Everything she could say or do, she had already done.Now, she could only pray for heaven to open its eyes and make Westley a decent person, letting her go back."How about a bet?"Westley pulled the blanket off, helping her sit up."There are still some days before Jane gives birth.""We’ll forget our grudges for now. If, during this time, you can develop feelings for me, then you’ll lose, and we’ll remarry. If you don’t fall for me, I’ll let you go back."Jordan's mind was racing.She felt like Westley wouldn’t let her go so easily.But there was no flaw in his words.For her, it still seemed to give her an advantage.After all, she only felt

    Jane said lightly, “Do you think Westley would let you find him easily?”“No, but if we keep chasing him, we will eventually find him.” Zachary brought the food to her. “Eat something.”Jane refused his feeding, took the plate and ate by herself.Zachary then placed some more food in front of her.Jane said, “You don’t need to take care of me. I can eat by myself. You should eat too.”Those words made Zachary feel a sense of relief.It seemed she wasn’t angry, nor was she blaming him.“This matter was indeed my oversight. I thought that since Jordan was with your cousin in Impelia, Westley wouldn’t be able to reach her. But I never expected that he would be so bold and take Jordan away directly.”Jane understood. “You want me to put the blame on my cousin, right?”Zachary replied without changing his expression, “How could that be? This matter is entirely my responsibility.”Jane didn’t say anything, only remarking, “When I give birth, I want to see Jordan.”Zachary reassure

    Westley handed her the phone.“Tell him yourself.”Jordan was surprised the moment she took the phone, but then she realized something didn’t feel right.He gave it to her so easily...She snapped, “You did this on purpose!”Westley didn’t deny it.Jordan didn’t care much about that anymore and immediately dialed Zachary’s number.When Zachary saw the caller ID, his right eyelid twitched violently.Frank glanced at him. “Why aren’t you answering?”Zachary sighed in frustration. “Stop watching the show, you answer it.”Frank raised his hands. “My wife and your wife are on the same page.”Frank’s position was the same as Zachary’s. He didn’t dare answer the phone either.He pursed his lips as he didn’t have the right to criticize Frank.This phone felt like something that neither of them wanted to have anything to do with.In the end, Zachary still answered it.“Westley, you only have one chance...”“It’s me, Zachary.”Zachary thought something was terribly wrong. “Give

    Westley was indeed cunning, but when Zachary said he couldn’t guess Westley’s plan, that was purely pretending to be ignorant.Even he knew that intercepting a plane wouldn’t work.Since Nathan was pursuing so closely, if Westley wanted to take someone away, he must have prepared multiple plans.For example, parachuting mid-way.But he was enjoying watching the drama and didn’t expose it.“I do have some responsibility in this matter.” Nathan was always someone who took responsibility for his actions. “But the responsibility of not saving Jordan falls on you.”Zachary felt like his head was going to explode.He could roughly guess where Westley had parachuted.But that place had many landing spots, and it wasn’t something that could be found in just a day or two.Moreover, since Westley dared to take Jordan away from Nathan, he must have made detailed plans.Knowing they were searching, he would definitely change locations.This was a tug-of-war.It was hard to explain to J
