When Jane groggily woke up, she felt as if she were still swaying.Thinking it was Zachary still at it, she tried to push and kick him, but ended up missing.She opened her eyes and realized she was in the cabin, alone in bed.Seeing a white shirt draped over the sofa, she put it on and opened the door to step outside.There was hardly anyone in the hallway.She went on the deck and it was also empty.Leaning against the railing, she enjoyed the breeze and the scenery, suddenly noticing that the cruise ship had stopped, with splashes of water rising.She curved her lips, intentionally walking to one side, and the splashes followed her movement.She walked all the way to the soft ladder.A person emerged from the splashes, climbing up the ladder.Jane leaned against the railing, watching.Her gaze started at his handsome face, following the sparkling droplets of water as they slid down.They landed on his well-defined muscles.Zachary pushed his wet hair back, bent down clo

Yasmin frowned. "You swam in the sea?"Zachary nodded.Yasmin panicked. "Were there sea snakes or something in the water that bit her?"Jane could swim and was quite good at it. She had heard Charlotte mention it before.The only thing she could think of was that an accident had occurred.Zachary shook his head.There was no way that would happen in that area, he had checked everything before letting Jane swim. If there was any danger, he wouldn’t have allowed her to go.Seeing him distressed, Yasmin decided not to press further.They just had to wait for the doctor's examination results."Zachary.""How is it?"The female doctor replied, "It seems her leg got tangled in some seaweed, which led to her drowning, but Miss Greenwood likely went into shock due to an allergy to something.""Allergy to what?" asked Zachary.The doctor said, "We can’t be sure. There are many factors in the sea. It could even be an allergy to the seaweed.""Has Jane swum in the sea before?"Zach

The female doctor hung the IV for Jane and said to Zachary, "Mr. Collins, I need to draw blood for a blood test."Zachary nodded. "Get the results quickly."After drawing the blood, the female doctor replied, "I’ll do it as soon as possible."Roy followed the female doctor out.Zachary looked at Yasmin. "You and Jason go handle your matters. I'll stay here and keep an eye on things."Yasmin did not want to disturb the couple. "If you need anything, just call us."Zachary saw them out and assured, "I can handle it.""Alright then."Zachary closed the door and returned to the living room, asking his subordinates, "Where is Nina?"Ross replied, "Rick and the others took her back. They arrived in Jeswood long ago and have been keeping watch."Something flashed in Zachary’s eyes. Could it really be an accident?"Confirm if it is indeed Nina herself."Ross immediately called Rick.Zachary fetched some water, wrung a towel, and wiped Jane's face.Then he sat by the bed, staring

But after all, she was recognized as a goddaughter by his mother and had grown up in the Collins family. She could be considered part of the family. In this situation, he felt reluctant to investigate her affairs. He only thought about how to make it up to her. Yet he didn’t want to put Jane in danger. Frank noticed Zachary's unpleasant expression and continued, "But there's no direct evidence to prove anything. If she doesn't tell the truth, reporting it won't help.""But you should have a way to make her speak.""What, should we go back and check it out?" Zachary threw the tablet he was holding aside and pulled out a cigarette, though he didn’t light it. After a moment of silence, he said, "Once Jane is fine, I'll take her back with me." "By then, I’ll handle all those messy matters, and then I'll take her out to enjoy herself properly." "Perfect timing." Frank snapped his fingers. Zachary looked surprised. "What do you mean?"Frank replied, "We need to go back

"What did you bump into?" Zachary and Charlotte asked almost simultaneously. Jane couldn't remember the details clearly. She tried to recall. "When I was trying to break free from the seaweed, I think I saw a hand in the pile of seaweed, and my calf touched something cold and soft. I had already held my breath to the point of seeing stars, so I couldn’t see clearly what it was. I thought it was just a fish swimming by. As for that hand, I can't be sure if I was seeing things. As for the allergy, I really don’t have a history of allergies. Did the doctor say I was allergic?" Zachary replied, "It’s still uncertain, we’re waiting for the test results." Jane nodded and looked at Charlotte. "Charlotte, I know you care about me, but I have Zachary here. You should enjoy your honeymoon with Frank and not let me hold you back." Charlotte shook her head. "Let’s go back to Jeswood. We’re all worried about you. It’s better to let Dr. Travis or Prof. Kilburn take a look." Jane tried to s

Roy said, "His son once went abroad to avoid trouble and encountered Nina, but there hasn’t been any close contact. We can’t definitively say that Miss Greenwood’s drowning was plotted by them." But Zachary had a gut feeling that things weren’t that simple. He felt guilty toward Nina, but if she intended to harm Jane, he wouldn’t let it slide easily. "You go and investigate further," he ordered. Roy nodded and left to carry out the task. The car arranged by Frank was already waiting. Jane and Charlotte shared one car, while Yasmin, with the child and Jason, took another. Frank didn’t rush to cuddle with his wife, instead, he sat alone in the car, waiting for Zachary for quite a while. So, when Zachary finally got in, Frank made it uncomfortable for him right away. "Two girls, Zachary, how do you plan to choose?" At this point, Zachary had indeed lost to Frank. This guy had liked Charlotte since childhood and still did. The two girls were the same person. In th

Dr. Travis had lived to this age and had seen everything clearly, he felt no embarrassment saying whatever came to mind. Moreover, as a doctor, he had to be straightforward. "You've exhausted yourself too much. You need to take some time to rest and recover. And Mr. Collins, you can’t exhausted yourself either. Give yourself some time to rest too." Everyone was an adult, there was nothing difficult to understand here. While Dr. Travis spoke calmly, Zachary felt embarrassed. Saying such things in public still had a sense of shame attached to it. "Ahem, I’ve noted that," he cleared his throat. "Thank you, Dr. Travis." Dr. Travis stood up, putting away his small cushion. "There are no other issues. Just pay special attention to the allergens identified this time. Drowning has caused some pulmonary edema, so keep your diet light and take care of yourself during this period." Jane and Zachary saw Dr. Travis to his car, followed by Charlotte and Frank. After sending Dr. Tra

They could always be precise.“Let’s eat, Zachary will handle it. There are some things I don’t want you to hear, and you don’t need to take it to heart. It probably isn’t anything good, we shouldn't internalize it.”Charlotte helped Jane with her food while providing comfort.Jane’s situation with Zachary was different from that with Frank.If they were to take the step towards marriage in the future, it would likely be a fierce battle.In the bathroom, Zachary lit a cigarette.On the other end, his mother was venting furiously, but he maintained one attitude.Nina must be sent abroad, Jane was not just a fleeting interest, he was serious about her.His mother was so infuriated that her blood pressure rose, and she had to take medication to continue talking to him.“What, are you willing to give up being the son of the Collins family and sever ties with us for her?”Zachary’s tone was unusually serious. “I will if I have to.”His mother took a deep breath, controlling her a

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

Frank pulled her into his arms and asked, "You really have to go out for drinks?"Charlotte nodded. "It's a girls-only night. No men allowed.""Oh?" The man repeated slowly and deliberately, "No… men… allowed?"Charlotte saw the look on his face and knew exactly what he was thinking."Only women. Even the drinks are for women.""Oh? Tell me, how do you tell if a drink is male or female?"Charlotte lightly patted his face twice. "The drinks women drink are for women. Got it?"Frank laughed. "Got it."Over on Jane's end, after finishing her call, she was about to go look for Jordan, but Zachary pulled her into the room and pinned her against the wall.His warm lips covered hers, then quickly pulled away.With his forehead against hers, the man asked, "Going out for drinks?"Jane hooked his chin with her finger. "What, Mr. Collins, trying to seduce your way into a drinking invitation?"Zachary chuckled lowly, kissed her again, and asked, "May I?""No."Jane rejected him comp

Jordan had grown up in the Howard family, but the person who had taken care of her since she was little had an old house.She arranged for Jane and the others to stay there, and she would also be getting married from that house.She didn't have many friends. Originally, Leanne was supposed to be her bridesmaid. Although she had a child, she had never been married.But Leanne wasn't sure if she could make it back in time, so she let Jane and Charlotte take over as substitutes for now. They would adjust accordingly later."Try on the dress. If there's a problem, I can still make adjustments."With the help of the two of them, Jordan put on the wedding dress.But Jane was most looking forward to the wedding dress.Both her and Charlotte's weddings were going to be Cherian style.Jordan, however, wanted a Western-style one.And Charlotte, who had designed clothes for many years, had never actually designed a wedding dress before.This was her first attempt, and she was very excit

"Okay, I won't bring it up anymore."Westley walked over with Jonathan and sat down.Miranda was very satisfied. "Finally, Jordy can have dinner with me again."Jordan smiled. "I'm also happy. I can still call you Mom.""Then let's drink to that.""Okay."Westley waited for the "mother and daughter" to finish speaking, then threw out a big announcement. "By the way, our wedding is on the 22nd of next month."Clang!The spoon in Miranda's hand fell."What did you say?""On the 22nd of next month, Jordy and I are getting married. We sincerely invite you and your husband to attend."Jordan was also shocked.She only knew that Charlotte's dress was being made, and they were picking the wedding date.But Westley hadn't told her about this in advance."Next month, it's almost the New Year.""Yes, it's a wedding before the New Year. Then we'll celebrate the New Year at home. I'm informing you in advance, my dear mom. You can prepare for the the New Year Eve dinner.""The New Y

Jonathan almost spit out the tea he was drinking."You have principles now?""Not the right time to talk nonsense."Westley. "Do you always talk in a way that pokes others' pain points?"Jonathan smiled for a moment. "If you've done it, don't be afraid of people talking about it."Westley didn't want to continue the conversation and stood up to leave.He went to the kitchen to find Jordan and found her eating ravioli."Didn't you say you'd help?" Westley sat next to her. "How come you're eating secretly? Give me a bite?"Jordan guarded the food. "It’s in the kitchen. There's still plenty in the pot.""But I want to eat from your bowl.""But I don't want to give you any."Westley laughed. "Okay."But while Jordan took a bite of the ravioli, he kissed her.Jordan's eyes widened as she felt the ravioli in her mouth being stolen away."You're disgusting."Westley smiled. "Sweet."Jordan couldn't eat anymore and pushed the remaining ravioli to him. "I'm not eating anymore."
