Chapter 650

Author: Lean
Jane seemed to have endless wealth, waving her hand, "How is it a waste of money when you spend it on your daughter? Besides, Frank doesn't lack money."

She put little shoes on the baby and added, "Mr. Smith said he'd reimburse me for everything, so it's fine."

I thought to myself, ‘Everyone here is quite extravagant.’

"Aw... so cute!"

Jane couldn't help but kiss the baby and asked, "Have you chosen a formal name yet? You can't just keep calling her 'baby.'"

"When I visit others, they even have nicknames. We should at least have a formal name."

I felt that names just had to be simple and easy to remember.

But Frank was different, he insisted on a unique name.

He flipped through dictionaries every day but never found anything he liked.

"Why don't you choose the nickname? I can't decide on the formal name."

I initially planned to just call her "baby" until Frank picked a name that would last.

I thought I could come up with a nickname later that would match

    Frank even went to a church for a name. When I found out, I couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. My mom sighed. "It's my fault as a mother-in-law, I put too much pressure on him." Jane teased, "Now you have more competition for Frank's love." "He's a materialist, and now he's religious." "Don't stir up trouble," I huffed. "He's not loving anyone else, he loves my daughter. I'm actually happy about it." But Frank's actions were indeed a bit over the top. A name was important, but it didn’t require such a big fuss. When he returned, I planned to talk to him about it seriously. Instead, he put a bracelet on my wrist. "The good luck charm from Alana is too childish. This one can help you ward off all disasters." I couldn't help but feel my resolve weaken. My heart was gradually filled with emotion. He used to be so arrogant, yet now he sought divine protection for our peace. It was quite unbelievable. "Alan said you went to seek a n

    In the evening, Frank didn't have dinner at home. Zachary also helped him handle many things. He couldn't keep being aloof, he had to go check it out. I fed the child some milk and sat down at the dining table. I noticed Jane was staring at her phone, bringing cutlery to her mouth but not picking up a single grain of rice. "What are you busy with? If it's work-related, I can start handling it with you now." Jane shook her head. "Nothing." She put down her phone and said, "It's my personal matter." There were rarely any secrets between Jane and me. She wasn't someone who could keep things hidden. Something was off. Thinking back, it seemed like there was something strange between her and Zachary. "Have you completely given up on pursuing Zachary?" Jane responded with a nod. "Let’s not talk about him him, you should eat more meat and nourish yourself." She kept serving me dishes until my plate was piled high. I reached out to stop her. "

    "Under such circumstances, even I’m not moody." ‘Ex-girlfriend…’ Frank's smile deepened as he looked at Zachary, casually saying, "So it seems our bet still has some suspense." Charlie chimed in, "I think Frank can win. His family wouldn’t agree with the relationship between him and his girlfriend so easily. With his personality, he wouldn't sneak off to get a marriage certificate and then announce it later." Zachary glanced at Charlie and finally spoke to Frank, "Why didn't the people who were supposed to visit me last time I was hospitalized show up?" Frank cocked his brows, responding unhurriedly, "Oh, my wife told me not to talk about it." "But the ones who shouldn't have come did. I'm not clear on that." Zachary hadn't received any news and was waiting for Jane, only to be surprised by someone else. "Let's drink." Frank didn't say anything and downed his drink. He put down the glass and stood up. "It's getting late, I'm heading back." Charlie quick

    "Hmm?" I forgot that Frank was always reckless. I tried to cover his mouth but didn't have time. "Honey, are you hinting at something?" I shot him a glare, hurriedly chatting with Jane for a moment before pulling Frank into the elevator. Back home, Frank cocked his brows, a hint of mischief in his expression. "In a hurry?" At first, I didn't get what he was talking about. Then I reached out and poked his face hard. "What's wrong with you?" Frank looked confused. "What do you mean?" I withdrew my hand. "About Jane and Zachary. She's Sparrow's godmother. You handle it." Frank pulled me into his arms and leaned down to kiss me. "I won’t do anything, just watching the show." I was about to speak when he picked me up effortlessly. "Besides, I have my own important matters to attend to." I could truly feel Frank's urgency. He was so anxious that he even took a shower with me. But just as we got into the bathroom and stripped down, the bedroom door

    "If Mr. Collins wants me to give you a ride, I'm sorry, I don't have time. But I can call a taxi for you." Zachary pressed his throbbing forehead. "Why must it be like this?" Jane found it amusing and was too lazy to say much to the drunk. "Are you calling for a taxi yourself, Mr. Collins, or should I help you?" Zachary felt confused and asked, "Are you still talking to Charlie?" Jane had tied her hair up to make it easier to hold the baby. Feeling a bit irritated, she let it down and shook it. Then she glanced over at Charlotte's house. She was contemplating whether to interrupt their moment and let Frank deal with Zachary. But thinking about Frank's methods, she passed on that idea. She took out her phone, preparing to call a taxi. Just then, Charlie called her, which was convenient, she could have him take Zachary away. But before she could answer, her phone was snatched away, then she was enveloped by a shadow. Before she could react, she felt somet

    "Sir Collins found out about it and sent her abroad, saying it was to see the world and learn more. In reality…" Frank patted my head. "Got it?" "So..." I reached out to tap Frank's strong chin. "That's what makes someone unforgettable, right?" Frank glanced at me. "You now know that Zachary and his first love can’t be together, and now you're planning to match him with Jane?" "Not really, it all depends on Jane's feelings." I withdrew my hand. "I just think it's a pity to miss out on a good relationship because of such misunderstandings." "Are you playing with words here?" Frank leaned in and nudged my nose. "I've told you everything, what's my reward?" I quickly pushed back against him. "I still have questions to ask." Frank let out a nonchalant hum and kept his hands moving. "Go ahead and ask." I pressed down on his hands and asked seriously, "Then wouldn't that mean Jane isn't qualified to marry into the Collins family?" Now, the Charlotte Jewelry was

    Jane stopped, turned, and leaned against the car. Suddenly she asked, "Has Mr. Collins encountered any issues recently?" "Huh?" Charlie was caught off guard by the sudden topic, but he didn't think much of it and replied, "Hey, it's just that his ex-girlfriend is back. It's normal for him to be a bit off, he almost fell out with his family over her before." ‘So devoted. Then why the hell did he kiss me? So shameless!’ Jane turned and kicked the tire. Such an action caused her foot to hurt and tears streamed down her cheeks. Seeing this, Charlie realized something was wrong. "Feeling down? Did someone bully you? I'll go teach them a lesson." Jane really wanted to say it was Zachary, but unfortunately, they were friends. She had to deal with this herself. "No one bullied me. I just don't want Mr. Collins to be in a bad mood and raise my rent. Or not give me such a good spot to rent." Charlie waved his hand. "Nonsense! I'm still here, you don’t have to worry,

    I was hesitating whether I should speak first. Jane finished a glass of ice water and bit her lip, cursing, "Do you know that Zachary’s sick?" I nodded in agreement. If he liked her, he should just say so, after that, they could talk things out and be in a proper relationship. What was with the kissing? That was just something couples did. Now it was like he was acting like a thug. Anyone would be angry in her shoes. "Why not report him to the police?" "I want him to learn a lesson that he’ll never forget," said Jane. Then suddenly realized something was off. "I don't think I mentioned what he did, why would you suggest calling the police?" "Oh, I know." She leaned back on the sofa, crossing her arms in a questioning posture. "Did you peek at us from upstairs last night?" I felt guilty about this. I originally intended to go downstairs, but Frank wouldn't let me. I also thought this was their issue, and as a friend, I shouldn't intervene too much. "I’

    Jordan and Whitney chatted casually.Most of the time, it was Jordan doing the talking while Whitney listened.After covering enough about the wedding, they talked about Jordan's work over the past few years.She also mentioned the tangled feelings and past with Westley.When she got to that part, she grew a little curious. "Whitney, before you married Caleb, did you ever like anyone?"Whitney shook her head."What about a secret crush?""Not even that."Whitney rarely talked to others about her past.Zachary only knew because he had looked into her and thought she was perfectly suited to be a pawn.And she had needed to become that pawn—to completely sever ties with her past, achieve her goals, and fulfill her ambitions."I was too busy studying and working to think about anything else."Jordan sensed she didn't want to go further, so she didn't press.Just then, Jane called, saying she and Charlotte would arrive soon and join them for lunch.She relayed the message to W

    "We had a meal together before, and I noticed you always seemed to like sweet dishes, so I tried buying some. I was worried it might not suit your taste.""It does, it does." Jordan took a bite of the pudding. "It's delicious. But did you buy anything you like to eat?"Whitney said, "I already had breakfast. I can't eat anymore."Jordan offered a suggestion, "Why not try a bite of this sponge cake? It's a specialty here in Nelana."Whitney really couldn't eat any more. She had a small appetite, a condition built up over the years.If she ate a full meal, she couldn't eat snacks afterward. And if she ate snacks, she would lose her appetite for meals.She had a small stomach.But seeing Jordan looking at her so expectantly, she still picked up a piece of sponge cake and took a bite."It's very good."Jordan smiled and took a big bite of the sponge cake herself."Whitney, you're so good at picking food! This is great!"The old house was a bit remote, but it had a rooftop terrac

    Jordan said Whitney would be coming over later.Westley hadn't expected that the first one to get out of bed would actually be Whitney."Just the two of you?" he asked."For now, yes."Jordan glanced at her phone. In the group chat, it was just her and Whitney talking—no response yet from Jane or Charlotte.She more or less knew why Jane hadn't responded, but Charlotte too?Still, it didn't really matter. There weren't any specific plans for today anyway.She hadn't known Whitney was coming, so it was a nice surprise."Maybe my sister will text me around noon. We can decide what to do then.""You." She pointed at Westley. "You are not allowed to show up in front of me again after breakfast."Westley nodded. "Got it."After buying food, Whitney told Caleb, "I'm going to find Jordan. You can go handle your stuff. I'll be staying at her place until the wedding."Caleb leaned against the elevator wall, his voice low and lazy. "You're telling me what to do?"Whitney wasn't in a

    She replied with an emoji, then looked for her girls in the group chat to ask them out for food.Their group chat had a new member now—Whitney.And it was Whitney who replied to her."I'm already eating at the hotel. Do you want to come over, or should I bring something to you later?"Whitney had actually had a good night's sleep.Though it was a bit later than her usual habit, she still managed to get up for breakfast.Before, it was always Caleb who brought breakfast to the bedside and fed her, because she simply couldn't get out of bed.Jordan figured she was probably having breakfast with Caleb and decided not to bother her."No need, I'll just eat something nearby. Your hotel isn't close to me."Whitney replied. "I'm heading over later anyway, but I'll probably be a bit late. If you're hungry, go ahead and eat something first. I'll bring you something else."Jordan. "Thanks."Whitney. "No problem."Caleb noticed her holding her phone, her expression much softer, even t

    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
