"I also thought that maybe it would be fine to remain indifferent, but I just couldn’t let go. That time I saw Charlie calling you and remembered he liked you, I got so angry that I impulsively kissed you. Later, I realized my true feelings. After that, when you started dating Michael, I completely understood that I liked you and couldn't stand seeing you with another man."

Jane had never heard Zachary say so much.

He wasn't a talkative person, he only spoke at critical moments.

After they added each other on WhatsApp, during the time she flirted with him, his replies were sparse.

Other than “okay” or refusals, when he saw her being stubborn, he simply chose not to reply and just ignored her.

In the WhatsApp window, only messages from her could be seen.

Even after she began to distance herself, when he forcefully kissed her, she still thought maybe he liked her a little.

But before she could figure it out, his true love returned.

The atmosphere between them also seemed ambiguou

    On a quiet night, even the ocean breeze gently embraced the rocks on the shore and came to a stop.However, in a room on the top floor of a hotel, the passion continued unabated.It wasn't until early morning that things finally calmed down.Outside the door, footsteps seemed to come and go.Under the crack of the door, faint white smoke drifted in.Jane had already fallen asleep, while Zachary caught a hint of sweet fragrance but didn't pay attention. He held Jane tightly as she slept peacefully.Beep—It was hard to tell how long had passed when the door to the room was opened.The light from the corridor stretched the shadows of two figures, one tall and one short.The shorter one's skirt swayed slightly as they moved.Jane had slept soundly.She usually struggled with insomnia, likely because she hadn't exhausted her energy."Ouch…"When she turned to check the time on her phone, the pain in her waist made her gasp.It also reminded her of the wild night they had.Sh

    "I’ll go get you something to eat."After saying that, Michael left the room.At that moment, Jane couldn't focus on what was happening.She first rummaged through the small box on the bedside table, which was open.Then she looked at the trash can, which had been used.But she wasn’t completely certain.She hurriedly got up, took a shower, put on some clothes, and rushed out with her phone.She remembered that when she went out yesterday, she passed a pharmacy.But when she opened the door, the door to the room diagonally across the corridor also opened."Zachary, don't worry. I won't tell anyone..."Facing her was Nina, with red eyes and only a bathrobe on, along with a disheveled Zachary, who had a serious expression.A few minutes earlier.Zachary woke up, still with his eyes closed, holding the person in his arms, wanting to kiss her.But he sensed something was off.The scent of jasmine—Jane would never use such a faint fragrance.She always smelled of intense rose

    Jane said, "You go have her take the medication first, I'll ask the front desk."Zachary reached out and pulled Jane back. "Let’s go together."Jane shook her head. "We should split up. I'm afraid someone might destroy evidence."In this matter, Zachary's first suspicion was Michael.He wasn’t as innocent as he seemed."You won't get much from asking now," he said.Jane's expression turned somewhat grim.Hours had passed since they fell asleep at dawn. If the other party had planned this, they indeed wouldn't let them find anything.She followed Zachary back to the top floor of the hotel.Watching him knock on Nina's door, she saw it open shortly after from the inside.Nina peeked out, nervously looking at Zachary. "Zachary..."A flicker of emotion crossed Zachary's dark eyes, but his face remained expressionless.He handed her the medication.Nina saw the words on the box, lowered her eyes, suppressing the coldness in them.With a pitiful tone, she asked, "Zachary, what

    Michael wasn't angry, but his dog-like eyes were filled with sadness. "Whoever my sister chooses, I will wish her all the best, as long as she's happy. I'm willing to do anything. But, Mr. Collins, your childhood sweetheart just came out of your room, shouldn't you take some responsibility for her? Isn't it inappropriate for you to assert your claim over me now?"Zachary couldn't stand Michael's pitiful act of pretending to be kind-hearted.He didn't need a kid who only knew how to talk pretty but had no real ability to interject in his affairs.Before he could speak, Michael continued, "Well, with Mr. Collins's background, if he wants it all, no one would dare to say anything. Those with money and power, all have more than one woman, right?"Even though they were in an elevator, it felt like they had stepped into a refrigerator.Jane had to speak up. "Enough! My ears are ringing and I want some quiet."Zachary hadn't even opened his mouth, and Michael obediently fell silent.Ju

    "I can handle it."Jane turned to reassure Yasmin. "It's really nothing. Please don't tell Charlotte, I'm begging you, Ms. Jackson.""Alright." Since Jane didn't want any interference, Yasmin decided not to press further. "You go ahead and take care of things."Jane returned to Zachary's side, just as the floor manager said, "Mr. Collins, my superior will take a little longer to arrive. I'll take you to the lounge upstairs for some tea and snacks while we wait."Zachary waved his hand dismissively. "Tell him to hurry up."The floor manager didn't dare to provoke him and made another call in front of Zachary.Jane quietly asked Zachary, "Shouldn't we check the surveillance footage first?"Zachary replied, "Only the owner of the hotel have authorization to some things."Jane understood.Footage accessible to everyone likely wouldn't reveal much.They needed to look at backups stored in the cloud or hidden permissions.Michael watched them from behind, puzzled about how these t

    This was too coincidental.Jane and Zachary exchanged glances. Zachary asked, "If there’s a skilled hacker, can they recover it?"The staff in the surveillance room didn't know Zachary's identity. They just saw their boss being so servile and guessed he was probably a more powerful figure.They didn't dare to offend him, so they replied honestly, "Even the person who designed the surveillance program can't recover it. This isn't just a simple file deletion that a skilled programmer or hacker could fix. It's a self-rescue program, or rather, a self-destruction program. Once the data is erased, it can't be recovered."After hearing this, a cold light flashed in Zachary's eyes.He asked, "Where's the hard drive?"The staff handed Zachary the hard drive they had fished out of the water.Zachary took it and looked at the hotel owner. "I need your computer, along with your cloud account and everything else. I just happen to have a friend who’s in the surveillance industry, I'll get yo

    "What the hell is she up to this time?"At that moment, a relaxed, deep male voice had sounded."Was this a grand performance prepared because we returned?"Jane was surprised to see Charlotte."How come you’re back?"Charlotte poked her forehead. "You thought you could hide such a big thing from me."Jane believed Yasmin was not someone who lacked integrity. "How did you know?"Charlotte pointed to Frank.They came to a tacit understanding.Jane grasped Charlotte's hand. "We aren't children. Zachary and I can handle this, you can do what you have to."Charlotte replied, "We’re in no rush.""Zachary!"Just as Jane wanted to say more, she heard a hoarse cry.Turning around, she saw Nina had thrown herself into Zachary's arms.At that moment, she had stood frozen in place.Her intuition told her that someone like Nina wouldn't hurt herself willingly.Moreover, it wasn't just her, Frank had noticed the moment he appeared.But Zachary couldn't just watch, he still reached

    As he spoke, he shot a glance at Jane. "He used to be so clingy to you, but it’s a little strange that he’s now avoiding you after what seemed you two sleeping together."Jane didn't have the energy to pay attention to Michael and was too lazy to watch the farce, so she pulled Charlotte away.After Frank's reminder, she felt that Michael's behavior had been quite off since she woke up."After dinner, I'll go find him and ask what's going on.""No need," said Zachary. "Once there's evidence, he won't be able to deny it."Jane rested her chin on her hand. "How long until we see this evidence?"Zachary couldn't specify a timeline, this matter was complicated."As soon as possible," he said.The waiter began serving the dishes, and Jane started eating.Zachary said that she shouldn't go, but she wasn't that obedient.She felt restless until there was a resolution.Michael was the one who was really feeling restless.He didn't want to deceive Jane or use such despicable means to

    Charlotte patted her head. "First, make a video call to that little girl." Jane quickly found her phone and opened the landlord's WhatsApp. As soon as the call connected, the little girl appeared on screen, her eyes red. Tears were still visible on her face. The landlord was sitting next to her, waiting, not having gone to sleep. Jane apologized, "Sorry to disturb your rest." "Don't say that." The landlord gently patted her daughter's head. "I'm just happy you're alright." Jane smiled at the little girl. "Thanks to Celine, I'm fine." The little girl leaned closer to the screen. "Jane, you're lying. Your lips are swollen." Jane cleared her throat. "I ate something spicy earlier." She quickly added to prevent the little girl from saying anything else, "Alright, go to sleep now. We'll talk more when you get out of school. Jane went through a lot today, and she's tired too." The little girl, very understanding, handed the phone to her mother and went to bed

    The captain laughed. "Don't think that just because we're from abroad, we don't understand anything.""Young lady, if you want to buy some time, then I'll play along with you. But if you're hoping for someone to rescue you, I advise you to give up on that thought. This is the border. Domestic ships can't get through here."Well, you don't know Frank.There's no one who can stop him from going where he wants to go.Jane tried her best to suppress her fear. "Sir, I have all kinds of tricks. If I can make you guys happy, can you spare my life?"She reached out, grabbed the captain's belt, and moved closer."As long as you don't kill me, you'll be my savior. I'll be yours from now on and let you have your fun with me. Is that okay?"Although Jane hadn't dressed herself up recently.But her facial features were stunning. Those fox-like eyes with a smile in them were even more alluring.The captain kept swallowing saliva. Apparently, he was attracted.However, they had already rece

    They were anxious, not just because of the situation, but because they feared Zachary would go mad and go abroad with Jane. Frank glanced at their expressions and immediately understood that they were aware of Lexi's plan to send Jane abroad. "I suggest that while Zachary is looking for Jane, you should take care of the Sanchez family's matters. Otherwise, when Zachary comes back, there will be hell to pay." Jane ate the meal the waiter brought and then felt drowsy. She fell into a light sleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already half past nine. She remembered the things she had told the little girl before leaving and quickly grabbed her phone to call. But just then, the door was suddenly kicked open. Several adult men stormed in and grabbed her, dragging her outside. "What are you doing?" They had originally planned to reach the border, but unexpectedly, a violent storm had forced a slight course change. This delay allowed the effects of th

    Lexi said, "The plane will leave traces. By then, Zachary will find you. The ship will change at the border and private sea areas. Once she changes ships, it will be hard to track." Jane remembered when Jack had taken Charlotte away before. She felt a sense of unease. After all, Lexi wasn't someone she could fully trust. "I didn't expect you to be so timid." Lexi noticed Jane's worry. "I thought someone with your background, who dared to pursue someone as different as Zachary, and even date him, would have extraordinary courage." But wasn't Jane regretting it now? Otherwise, why would she be running away? She decided not to care anymore. With a firm heart, she boarded the ship. Lexi smiled in satisfaction, but then a cold glint appeared in her eyes as she spoke to the captain. "When we reach the border, throw her into the sea and feed her to the sharks." No matter where she went, as long as Zachary wanted to find her, it was just a matter of time.

    Lexi was so angry that she wanted to smash something. She got up and walked away, with each step of her high heels hitting the ground, the sound echoing her immense fury. The more difficult it was to conquer, the more determined she became to conquer it! Zachary went directly back to the Collins family home. The Collins family members were somewhat uneasy. When they saw him come back alone, they were both shocked and suspicious. "Did Lexi not come back with you?" asked Rebecca. Zachary did not respond and walked upstairs with long strides. Rebecca, along with Sir Collins and Madam Collins, exchanged gazes, all feeling something was off. It was strange that Zachary had actually returned to the Collins family. "Sean." Rebecca saw someone else entering behind him and immediately asked, "Did you follow him the whole time? Did you notice anything unusual?" Sean bent slightly, his face carrying a polite smile as he respectfully replied, "No abnormalities w

    The situation between Zachary and Jane's relationship had not been made public. It was normal for the employees at the company not to know about it. Zachary did not answer when people congratulated him, and Lexi stood silently by his side, not saying anything either. But to those around them, their actions were as good as an admission.Some people even offered their congratulations, but Zachary didn't acknowledge them. He didn't go upstairs. Instead, he turned and left the building. This time, he didn't even get into Lexi's car. The smell inside the car was too overwhelming, making him dizzy.Lexi followed him, and they entered a nearby cafe. He didn't go straight to Jane's place, but Lexi knew that was just a way of hiding his true intentions. However, she wasn't concerned. After all, the Collins family would never approve of him being with Jane. She just needed to give him a bit of time to play along."Mr. Collins, aren't you going to consider my suggestion?" Lexi asked with a sli

    The shock from the Collins family was too much for her. She wouldn't take the initiative, nor would she have the courage to continue with him.So what other way did he have?He'd tried both soft and hard tactics, yet this situation was still more complicated than advanced mathematics.The next day.Lexi invited Zachary out.But the Collins family hesitated.Rebecca said, "Why don't you two spend some more time getting to know each other at home first?"Lexi smiled. "Mrs. Collins, I know what you're worried about, but that woman is no longer in Jeswood."Rebecca was aware of this.After all, they had been keeping an eye on Jane's movements. They even knew where she was staying.It was surprising that Lexi had just returned a day ago, yet she had already figured it out.This kind of method and family background was exactly what the Collins family needed.It was also what Zachary needed."I've erased all traces. Even if he wants to find her today, he won't be able to, and it

    The landlord nodded understandingly. "You young people do have a lot of new ideas."They chatted casually and soon reached the large square.The stage had already been set up.They had arrived early, but there were already a lot of people gathered.Jane commented, "It's quite formal."The landlord proudly replied, "This isn't just a community event, there are even celebrities."Jane became a little curious and wanted to see what celebrities were here.It turned out to be an R-list boy band, along with a few elderly artists.Well, it was still a big stage.She watched for a while, but soon lost interest. She made an excuse to go to the bathroom.Under the cover of night, she wandered around.She spotted a small shop and bought a bag of cheese-flavored chips to eat.This kind of life, she thought, couldn't last long. She hoped Zachary would hurry up and get married, so he would stop bothering her."Jane..." Jane was lost in thought when the voice startled her, almost caus

    "Stop dreaming."Lexi, despite her feelings for Zachary, couldn't suppress her anger anymore."You want to marry that woman? That's nothing but wishful thinking."Zachary's gaze was icy, and every word he spoke, from his thin lips, carried a chilling frost."Her name is Jane."Lexi, at this point in her life, had never met a man who not only showed no interest in her but also repeatedly poked at her vulnerabilities."The more you protect her, the more dangerous she becomes. My offer won't change. You'll come to me eventually."With that, she turned, her heels clicking sharply as she walked toward the door."Excuse me, open the door."Sean opened the door.Lexi held her head high as she walked downstairs.Sean was about to close the door when Zachary threw the food outside.He even "thoughtfully" closed the door after that.When Rebecca saw the untouched food that Sean had brought down, she couldn't help but feel some pity."Not eating yet?"She had just praised Lexi for
