Chapter 724

ผู้เขียน: Lean
"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

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 725

    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

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 728

    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

    In the end, it was Jane who went to get the luggage.She was an impatient person. If she had doubts, she needed to clarify them.Otherwise, she couldn’t even sleep well.Zachary wanted to follow her, but she refused, so he could only wait at the door.Frank had known Zachary for years and had never offered any false comfort.He just waited silently beside him.Charlotte went to see the child.In the room, Jane tidied up the suitcase she had messed up when she woke up, picked it up after closing it, and didn’t even sit down.She looked straight at Michael and asked, “Did I really return to this room by myself last night?”Michael lowered his gaze, looking like a dog scolded by its owner for doing something wrong.In reality, he only appeared to admit his fault but was still somewhat unconvinced deep down.“Jane, I never wanted to make things difficult for you... It was my first time…”Jane was rendered speechless.She didn’t believe that Michael genuinely thought it was fin

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 732

    Michael almost impulsively revealed the truth.But in the end, he held back.Jane misunderstood him. It didn’t matter if they weren’t even friends.As long as she could see what kind of person Zachary really was, she would understand his actions later.“Okay, I’ll do as you say, Jane. I’ll leave now.”There was only a door between them, but the soundproofing on the top floor was quite good, and Zachary hadn’t heard anything.He just kept checking the time, feeling it was taking too long.Just as he was about to knock, the door opened.He saw Michael carrying a suitcase as he walked out.Then Jane followed behind him.“How was it?” Zachary took the suitcase from her hands, his voice soft.Frank cocked his brows, then stepped away to find Charlotte, giving them some space.Jane was about to speak when the door diagonally across from them opened.Nina stood there, looking distressed, tears brimming in her eyes as she looked at Zachary.“Zachary, I feel so terrible…”Zachary

    Westley knew why Zachary specifically mentioned these two things.Once the wedding was held, the whole world would know they were married.And once they had the child, he and Jordan would be very closely connected.Even if the hidden matters came to light, and there were issues between the Howard and Jackson families, it wouldn't be easy for Jordan to distance herself from him.But Westley didn't want to do that.He still needed to ask Jordan, and if she wanted to know, he would give her the choice.He had never really given her the power to choose before, he had always been forcing her into decisions."I'll notify you."Zachary didn't get involved in this matter and didn't say anything else.He first took Jordan and Westley back home.When they got out of the car, Jane said to Jordan, "Don't overthink it, this is all caused by the previous generation, it has nothing to do with us. If you keep thinking about it, aren't you punishing yourself for someone else's mistakes?"Jor

    But he always had doubts in his heart.He had thought it was just a professional habit.Now he realized, it might not be, and this could be another kind of warning — from Grandpa.Someone like him, who could cause trouble for the Jackson family, was really quite extraordinary."It'll be fine, trust me, okay?"Jordan turned to hug him, burying her head in his shoulder.Westley gently patted her back, offering silent comfort.When she fell asleep, he took his phone and went to the balcony.He called his father."What a surprise," said Jonathan. "But... there must be a reason why you’re calling me so late at night, right?"Westley held a cigarette in his hand but didn't light it.To be honest, he wasn't feeling certain either.Sometimes, it was actually better to stay a little confused."Dad, do you know about the Jackson family?"Jonathan was silent for a moment. "You want to ask about your grandfather and the Jackson family?""Yes.""I advise you not to know too much abo

    Jane also felt that finding out wouldn't mean anything. On the contrary, it might cause a fuss."Then we won't look into it. Let's just pretend we don't know anything."Jordan followed, "I agree with my sister."Zachary and Westley quickly exchanged a look.Westley agreed, saying they wouldn't investigate.But he was the kind of person who couldn't leave any potential risks, so he still needed to be clear about the cause and effect himself.Back at the Jackson family, Westley accompanied Calvin to play chess.Aunt Emily asked Zachary how things went.Zachary smiled faintly, replying, "It went well. No issues."Aunt Emily nodded. "Did both of them meet their grandma?""They did," said Zachary. "The two sisters took a peek, and I spoke with Calandra for a bit with Westley."Aunt Emily's gaze flickered. "What did you talk about?""Nothing much. Just some casual things." Zachary took out his phone. "Aunt Emily, I have a work call to make.""Go ahead and do what you have to."

    The friend who Elvis took a bullet for was the same person who had brought Jordan to the Howard family back then.Westley suddenly felt that something he had overlooked was becoming clear.Zachary also sensed that something was off and signaled him to continue speaking.Westley said, "That friend had been with my grandfather for many years, they passed away one after the other."Calandra's expression suddenly changed, and she tightly grasped Westley's hand.Westley's heart sank, but he didn't show any emotion on his face. He gently asked, "Grandma, are you feeling unwell?"Calandra suddenly pushed Westley away. "It's all your fault!""If you had helped, how could all of this have happened?" Then Calandra began crying. "If it weren't for necessity, how could I have done such things? How could I lose my daughter, my granddaughter?"Westley and Zachary exchanged a glance and looked at Ruth. "Ruth, help Grandma get some rest. If she needs medicine, give it to her.""Okay." Ruth ha

    The fact that Jordan resembled her mother was well known to everyone.She felt quite happy about it, but just as she was about to speak, the care worker’s words caused her to feel extremely upset."You look so much like her, so it's better if you don't go in."Jane patted Jordan's back, signaling her not to be upset.This wasn't her fault. It was beyond their control.Jordan shook her head, signaling that she was fine.Jane turned to the care worker and asked, "Can I go in then?"The care worker examined Jane closely and said, "You resemble your father a little, but thankfully, not as much as Mr. Jackson. However, I still suggest you don't go in. Even the slightest stimulus could be dangerous for someone who's sick."Jane hugged Jordan. "We really are sisters."Jordan gave a wry smile.Westley gently patted her head. "I'll go in first to take a look. Don't worry."He then turned to the care worker. "Take them to a warm place."The care worker led Jane and Jordan to enter fr

    Everything was discussed in the group chat."You're not going?"Jane glanced at her grandfather. There was a rift between him and her grandmother, so it wasn't very convenient. But Aunt Emily was her grandmother's biological daughter.Since their grandmother had already lost two daughters, she should cherish Aunt Emily and Aunt Orianna even more.Aunt Emily's face darkened slightly. "Your grandmother is ill, so I won't go this time. If you can't stand it, just come back immediately. It'll be fine."Jane comforted Aunt Emily. "It's fine, I'll handle it. I still have some confidence when it comes to easing relationships."Aunt Emily forced a smile. "There's no need to force it. We're happy that your grandmother can live this long, without any pain when she leaves. As daughters, we're also relieved."Jane was curious, but since this matter was painful for the Jackson family, she didn't ask further.Zachary and Westley arrived late and apologized to Aunt Emily and Calvin."It's fi

    "Do you think I'm stupid?" Jordan was no longer the fool she once was. "If we go down for breakfast in the morning, will they think we did something?"Westley smiled, hugging her and admitting his mistake. "I’m sorry, please don’t be mad.""You apologize every time, but you'll still do the same thing next time."Westley had originally thought that their real first time should be in the honeymoon suite.But the Jackson family's residence was hers, and it had been prepared for her from the beginning.He was indeed feeling tempted, but seeing how embarrassed she was, he decided to hold back.But then she insisted on getting close to him that night.It wasn't like he was impotent, how could he resist?"As for this matter, I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m apologizing because I love you.""Jordy."When he called her that, there was a sense of helplessness in his tone.Jordan also felt that she had overreacted.But in the Jackson family's residence with Westley... she really felt s

    Aunt Emily also felt awkward. "Jane, it's cold today..."Jane glanced at the time and felt it was about time.She then took Calvin and Aunt Emily back home.Aunt Emily personally went to cook for everyone. She was full of joy since Jane and Jordan returned.Jane first gave Calvin his medicine and, with some free time, played chess with him.She didn't know how to play at all, but Calvin was very patient and taught her bit by bit.At dinner, they finally saw Westley and Jordan.Jane noticed that Jordan clearly avoided eye contact, her cheeks flushed with a bit of redness, feeling embarrassed and shy.Westley, however, remained calm and composed, looking refreshed."Grandpa, dinner time." Jane put down her chess piece. "Let’s get Westley to play with you after dinner, he plays better than me. Otherwise, it's just boring here with me."Calvin was in a good mood. "It's fine, I enjoy playing with anyone."As long as they were all around, safe, happy, and healthy, he was fine with

    In the middle of it, Westley went outside to get some food to replenish Jordan.Jordan buried herself under the blanket, feeling extremely embarrassed.In the end, she had been the one to go back on her own words."Have something to eat."Westley pulled her out of the blanket, put his shirt on her, and carried her to the sofa.Jordan gave him a resentful look.Her pout clearly showed she was angry, but Westley only wanted to kiss her."Westley!"Jordan suddenly pushed him away. "You're so annoying."Westley handed her some cutlery. "Well, you can be mad at me all you want but you’ve got to eat something first."Jordan really was hungry. She hadn't eaten anything all morning and had used up a lot of energy.She turned her frustration into appetite.Westley ate a little too.Jordan's eyes darted around, hesitating to speak. "When you went downstairs earlier..."Westley knew what she wanted to ask, but pretended not to understand. "What do you mean?"Jordan glared at him. "
