Chapter 693

Author: Lean
She was beautiful enough to attract attention.

I had thought that after Charlie was rejected by Jane, he wouldn't have any more thoughts about her.

But at that moment, I saw his eyes shining, and his eager expression was impossible to hide.

As for Zachary…

He still had that usual calm demeanor, looking as if he was lost in thought.

"Charlotte."

Hearing my name, I looked at Frank, who unexpectedly knelt on one knee to help me put on my wedding shoes. "Honey, let's go home."

I placed my hand in Frank's palm, my brows and eyes curving up in a smile. "Okay."

Once he received my affirmative reply, he lifted me in his arms and strode out.

Upon returning to Region Gardens, he let Sparrow roll around on the wedding bed.

My mom had cooked food for us, and unsurprisingly, the first bite was raw.

I looked at my mom, and she winked at me. "Do you like it?"

I smiled helplessly. "I can’t really say I don’t."

My mom laughed. "Alright, let's move on."

    "Charlotte, happy wedding!"Michael raised his glass to me. Just as I lifted mine, I heard another voice calling my name.Before I could respond, a voice came from beside me. "Mrs. Smith, happy wedding!"It was Nina.Nina also knew Frank, so I wasn't surprised by her presence.Jane and Michael had been getting along well recently, so they weren't paying much attention to Zachary.At least they wouldn't cause trouble at our wedding.However, I still felt a bit worried when I caught a glimpse of Zachary's indifferent face.But since everyone was right in front of me, I raised my glass and politely responded, "Thank you."Nina took a sip of her drink and smiled at me. "Wait here, I'll help you rescue Frank. Don't let him delay your wedding night, especially since Zachary has just recovered. It can't go on like this.""Two birds with one stone," she said.I felt that her last four words were the key point.But I didn't say much, just replied, "Thank you and sorry for the troubl

    Upon returning to Region Gardens, Frank led me toward the bed."It's still not dark outside!"I felt a bit shy and pushed him away with all my might.Frank held my hands down. "Today is our wedding. Everyone knows what that means..."I caught the evident desire in his eyes and couldn't help but glare at him.He continued, "Besides, Mom is in the children's room playing with the kids. No one will disturb us."I was no match for his strength and was completely under his control.I couldn't break free or stop him.Feeling embarrassed, I needed to think of a way to stall for time."Let's not discuss Jane and Zachary, but there is something we need to talk about."Frank's expression remained focused as he asked, "Mom and Jason?"I nodded.Initially, my mom had agreed, and I invited Jason to the wedding.However, upon hearing my arrangements, Jason politely declined. "We can't overshadow your wedding. Dancing and singing are fine, but your mom can take the stage to speak, I won'

    He was born into such a harsh family and was an only child, bearing a tremendous responsibility.The path of his upbringing was filled with hardships.From a young age, he clearly knew what he wanted, and his personality was thus steady and aloof.At that time, even when he expressed his feelings, he remained calm and composed.However, before anything could happen, his grandfather sent her abroad.He said it was for her development, to help her learn more.In reality, he just wanted to separate her from Zachary.After years apart, everything changed as they grew up.But when she returned home and visited him in the hospital, his attitude toward her remained unchanged.Although indifferent, there was a unique gentleness about him.She thought that even his grandfather's actions wouldn't affect that.Previously, he was too young to fully control his life.Now that he had grown up, he was gradually taking over the Collins family.At that time, with power in his hands, no one

    "I was more honest than you about this."Nina was not angry, her smile seemed glued to her face.Her tone remained gentle. "Tonight, let them resolve the previous misunderstanding. Tomorrow night, we can just let them have a new misunderstanding."Outside, the owner of the escape room watched the surveillance footage and said to a nearby employee, "These two are really bold. The ghost have been trying to scare them for a while, and they're still calmly chatting together."The car drove into the underground car park. Before it had even come to a complete stop, Jane was ready to open the door and get out.Zachary reached out a large hand and pressed down on her, "If you want to talk in the car, I'm here for it.""You really have issues," Jane replied coldly.The driver wisely slipped away.Zachary asked her, "Upstairs or here?"Jane lifted her leg to kick him. "Neither. I don't want to talk to you. Just breathing the same air as you makes me feel sick."Especially the faint sce

    "Fine."When good words didn't work, he started to threaten her.Jane was so angry that her teeth itched. She ground her teeth and said, "There won't be any unpleasantness between them. Frank will always stand firmly by Charlotte. As soon as I tell Charlotte about your shameless behavior, Frank will surely find a way to make you unable to do anything."Zachary, however, smirked. "Just in time. I've been bored lately. Let Frank and your best friend skip their honeymoon and come to spar with me, so they can focus on serious matters."Jane felt defeated.Not defeated by Zachary, but by Frank.If Zachary really engaged Frank in a business battle, the city would be thrown into chaos.At that point, Charlotte would definitely worry.They had just gotten married, because she couldn't enjoy her life properly, she felt guilty.But she held her ground verbally. "You really are a good friend to Frank."Zachary didn't take it to heart. He brushed Jane's disheveled hair and said, "Can we

    Zachary hadn't really heard her previous words. He also didn't catch the latter part clearly.Faintly, it seemed he heard the word "want."He pressed her wandering hands down and spoke again, his voice already thick with desire, "If you could just speak properly, I wouldn't have to do this."‘Oh, now it’s my fault too.’Jane took the opportunity to bite his Adam's apple.Zachary's grip on her waist tightened suddenly, causing her to gasp in pain.She unhappily said, "Let go."Zachary pulled her tighter into his embrace, resting his chin on her shoulder.It seemed like he sighed in resignation, but Jane detected a faint hint of triumph in it."If you keep this up, I'll just take it as you've forgiven me and that you like me."‘Listen to this ridiculous logic. It was no wonder his family was involved in both politics and business,’ thought Jane.After cursing him inwardly, Jane continued where he left off, "I get it now. Mr. Collins just enjoys the feeling of me chasing after

    Zachary was quite surprised when she pinched his mouth shut.His usual calm and indifferent demeanor was nowhere to be seen.Jane held his mouth tightly, looking at him coldly. "Mr. Collins, you may have power and influence, but if you continue to harass me, then a person who has nothing to lose won’t be afraid of anything. Even if it costs me my life, I will make you pay the price."This was not what Zachary wanted.Hearing her say she liked someone else caused a fire to surge in his chest, wildly crashing around.He couldn't control himself.At that moment, he had only one thought and that was to silence her irritating mouth.Now that he had calmed down a bit, he recalled the hurtful things he had said earlier.At that time, Jane probably wanted to sew his mouth shut."I've let you scold me," he said, removing her hand from his mouth. "Aren't you done venting your anger? Tell me what would make you feel better?”Jane's expression was indifferent. "I already told you, didn’t

    "I told the security guard to let you in."Michael had actually prepared himself for Jane to refuse.He was also ready for her to end their casual relationship.When he received her message telling him to come in, he was overjoyed, spinning around where he stood.With the security guard's confirming gaze, he entered Jane's community, heading toward her building.Meanwhile, Zachary received the news that Michael had entered Jane's home.He couldn't sit still for a moment, grabbing his coat and heading out.However, when he opened the door, he came face to face with the thinly dressed Nina."Zachary..."Zachary paused slightly but still draped his coat over her shoulders, not allowing her to enter. He asked, "What's wrong?"Nina and Michael had discussed their plan at the escape room.But they had received news that Jane had left Zachary's place.She thought that the two would have resolved their misunderstanding and would be stuck together.They were both adults, and Jane w

    "Jane, don't argue with Zachary. This time, I am staying here voluntarily," said Jordan."I’ve made a bet with Westley, and there will be a resolution in the end."Jane nodded. "I can let you handle this matter yourself, but you have to promise me that you won’t let yourself get hurt, and you won’t just keep sacrificing yourself. If it becomes unbearable, give it up. I’ll always be here to support you."Jordan nodded. "Okay."The two sisters chatted for a long time, and only when Jane started to feel sleepy did they end the video call.Jordan handed the phone to Buck and closed the door to her room.Buck was left standing there.He felt like he had been completely abandoned, as if everything around him had fallen apart.Anyway, as a sandwich in the middle, he was already crushed, so it didn’t matter anymore.For several days, Jordan got up to eat, and the food was always food prepared by the chef.She hadn’t seen Westley around.She couldn’t really say how she felt. She just

    "He is faking his psychological illness," Jordan rebutted.Even if he had one, it had nothing to do with her.Even she didn’t have any psychological issues, how could someone with such a strong mind like Westley have any psychological issues?He shouldn’t blame her for everything.Having seen enough, she turned around and walked away.But Carter called her back. "He once took good care of you, and you're going to be this heartless?"Jordan wasn’t familiar with Carter. He was usually a man of few words with a cold personality.If she greeted him, he wouldn’t respond. If she talked too much, she might get an icy look in return.She really didn’t expect that one day, he would try to mediate between her and Westley."You should focus more on your own matters," she said.His own love life was a mess, so what right did he have to interfere in hers?Jordan’s emotions were written all over her face, she didn’t hide them.Carter could guess how she was feeling just by looking at her

    Jane didn’t care about Westley. Even if he was feeling it now, it was too late for regrets.If he hadn’t acted the way he did, Jordan wouldn’t have suffered so much.Moreover, he had once ignored her cries for help, so now he shouldn’t blame Jordan for his injuries.“How’s my sister?” she asked.Roy replied, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Collins, Ms. Hickey is doing fine. Except for the lack of freedom, there are no other restrictions.”“When can I have a video call with her?”Roy thought for a moment. “Since Mr. Howard is now delirious, I can make the arrangements.”“Thank you,” said Jane.“It’s no trouble, it’s my job.”After hanging up the phone, Jane looked at Zachary and asked, “What do you think?”Zachary moved the phone a little farther away to avoid radiation.After finishing the massage, he helped her lie down and said, “I’m thinking what you’re thinking.”Jane gave him a sidelong glance. “You’re slick.”Zachary smirked and bent down to kiss her forehead.“Get some rest.”

    "Mrs. Howard—"Buck watched helplessly as Jordan jumped into the sea.Before he could rush over, a figure was even faster than him."Sir!"Westley dived into the water, found Jordan, and dragged her to the shore.When Jordan was pulled onto the shore, she was still a bit dazed.Wasn't she just swimming? Why was there so much fuss?Buck gestured for people to bring a stretcher, lifted Westley onto it, and hurried back.Buck also called for the maids to help Jordan back.Jordan wiped her face, pushed the maid aside, and twisted the water out of her hair. "What happened?"Buck was anxious to check on Westley, but he couldn’t stop watching Jordan, worried she might jump into the sea again and trying to think of other ways to prevent it."Mr. Howard was saving you.""Why?" Jordan was confused. "I didn’t drown. What’s the need to save me?"Buck recalled what he had seen earlier. It seemed like... swimming?"Weren’t you... jumping into the sea?""Yes." Jordan didn’t notice Buck

    "Nathan, you should head back and deal with your own matters. Let's not interfere with Jordan's matters anymore."Nathan didn’t expect Jane to say this. He paused for a moment before speaking. "You know better than I do what Westley has done. How can we just ignore it? Jordan is still young and hasn’t experienced much in terms of relationships. She lacks experience, what if she falls again..."Jane knew what he was talking about and comforted him. "Don’t worry. Jordan may have experienced little in terms of relationships, but she’s not a foolish girl. She knows how to handle things."Nathan asked, "Is it because there’s something Westley knows?""No, it’s because we can't let Westley continue making a scene. This matter still needs to be handled by the person involved."Nathan didn’t say anything more and told Jane not to worry. When it was close to her delivery, he would come back.Jane agreed and hung up the phone.She threw the phone onto the counter and hugged Zachary from b

    Charlotte raised her hand and gently patted Jane’s shoulder."I understand, after all, she's your sister. But I think Jordan is very smart and capable, she can take care of herself. You can worry, but at the same time, take care of your own health. Then, when she comes back, you can love her properly."Jordan walked around the island.There was a helipad on the mountain with two helicopters.Out at sea, there was a large cruise ship docked.But she didn’t know how to pilot any of them, so there was no way to escape.In the end, she decided to just accept things as they were.If there was a problem, she would deal with it. If not, she’d wait."Mrs. Howard, Jasmine is looking for you."When Jordan returned to the villa, Buck handed her a phone.Hearing Jasmine’s name, she took it."Jasmine.""I'm relieved you're okay," said Jasmine, letting out a sigh of relief, then apologizing. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have drunk so much.""It’s not your fault."Since Westley had a plan to

    She got up just around noon.After thinking for a moment, she decided to go see Westley.Westley wasn't in the bedroom, so she went downstairs to ask the staff.The servant pointed toward the kitchen, and she walked over, finding Westley cutting vegetables.A strip of bandages was wrapped around his exposed wrist.His pale lips and exhausted eyes suggested he was still in poor condition.Yet, he was cooking?Jordan pressed her lips together, her sleep had been poor, and her face didn’t look good either.She stood in place for a few seconds, then turned and walked away.If he didn’t take care of his own body, what business was it of hers?Westley glanced over but didn’t call her, continuing his task.Buck watched the whole scene, worried about Westley’s health, he was still running a fever.“Sir, you should rest. Let me arrange for someone to cook, and I’ll bring it up to you later. And Mrs. Howard... probably won’t care about you... You should take care of your health. Othe

    Charlotte nodded. “So does unhygienic mean better taste?”Jane directly spoke to her belly, "Son, you have to treat your mother-in-law well in the future. Mommy won't be able to back you up. Mommy’s useless..."Charlotte raised her hand and poked her forehead. "Alright, stop the act.""You're even bringing the child up. We still don’t know if it's a boy."Jane said, "I want to arrange a marriage alliance with you. My child can sense his mother’s feelings and will surely fulfill his mother's wishes.""That's nonsense." Charlotte went out to buy what she wanted to eat.As soon as she sat in the car, she received a call from Frank."Is Mr. Smith slacking off again?"Frank chuckled. "I’m calling my wife. Is that not allowed anymore?"Charlotte had driven herself. She turned on the air conditioning and was thinking about going shopping. "I’ve got to go now. I'll be home tonight."Frank heard the sound of the engine and asked, "Did you go out?"Charlotte snorted, "You should know

    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
