The two of them couldn't come to any conclusion about the matter.

Charlotte helped Jane lie down. "Your head still hurts, so don’t think about it for now. It seems like a deadlock, and stressing over it won't help. At the very least, you should take care of yourself in a situation like this."

Jane lay on the hospital bed, stretching her limbs and sighing. "This isn’t something I can just bear on my own. It's strange, isn’t it? I know my background will cause Zachary trouble, yet I still ended up truly falling for him."

Suddenly, the door to the room swung open. Charlotte turned to see Frank and nodded to Jane before getting up to leave the room.

She closed the door behind her and looked up at Frank. "How did it go on your side?"

Frank replied, "Nothing yet. I suggested they put this on hold and deal with Nina first."

"Did they agree? Not exactly, but they didn’t oppose it either. I just dropped Zachary off at the car, and they’ll be home soon."

Charlotte nodded. "That’s good to

    In the ward, Zachary peeled an orange for Jane. For half a day, they had said nothing. Yet they understood everything. Zachary carefully peeled the orange, removing the white pith as well. He fed one piece after another to Jane. After finishing one orange, he offered her some water. Only then did he speak, “What do you want to eat? I’ll go buy some for you.” Jane couldn’t shake her head yet, so she waved her hand. “You should go back.” They locked gazes for a moment, then Zachary leaned in and kissed her forehead. “I’m sorry.” Jane hugged him and patted his back. “You don’t need to say sorry.” “It’s not about Nina.” That referred to the words of his grandmother. Jane realized this and asked, “Were you at the door when your grandmother came?” “Yes.” “So you heard everything.” “Yes.” Zachary gently embraced her but then tightened his arms, wishing he could merge with her completely. “I told them I would stand by you.” Jane laughed. “That’s enough for

    “Keep an eye on her?” Frank scoffed, “You only realized she was in your bed after waking up at noon, so what about before you woke up?” Zachary only remembered that he fell asleep around three in the morning. He woke up at noon. He frowned slightly. “Is that enough time?” “Doctors on night duty can handle this kind of situation,” replied Frank. “She knew we were on our honeymoon in Heliafield, so if she had a plan, she would have arranged it in advance. Artificial insemination is always the sooner the better.” Zachary still couldn’t figure it out. “Roy is on the floor below. If Nina went out, he would have noticed.” Frank watched Zachary without saying anything, instead handing him a tablet. “What’s this?” “See for yourself.” As Zachary scanned the text on the screen, disbelief grew within him. “You’re saying she took my… and put it into herself? How could that be possible?” He couldn’t believe it at all. Frank also found this possibility disturbing, but some th

    Frank's gaze turned colder. “If after the wedding she finds a way to get rid of the child, then it’s not yours. If not, it’s definitely yours.” Zachary chuckled in frustration. “Let me ask you this. in the same situation, would you use this method?” Frank leaned lazily against the chair, his casual tone striking a nerve. “I wouldn’t let that situation happen.” At the hospital, Jane finished her IV and was discharged. She didn’t want to stay in the hospital, who knew if someone would come to talk to her again? Returning to her little home improved her mood, perhaps she would recover better there. “Have you started cooking?” Charlotte poured her a glass of water and noticed the kitchen equipment had increased significantly, and the fridge was fully stocked. “If I remember correctly, you don’t know how to cook at all.” “You really know how to flatter me, don’t you?” Jane leaned against the doorframe, sipping yogurt. “Zachary cooks, and I wash the dishes.” Charlotte loo

    Even though it wasn’t as exquisite as a fancy restaurant, it was still delicious.“But Charlotte, I plan to break up with Zachary.” Zachary returned to the Collins family, and Nina was just walking downstairs. He glanced at her and silently headed to his room. Nina seemed flustered, as if she almost stumbled down the stairs. He didn’t reach out, but she grabbed his arm. After steadying herself, she exclaimed in panic, “You scared me! Thank goodness you’re back, Zachary. Otherwise, our child might be lost.” Zachary remained indifferent. Since that night at the hotel, he found it increasingly hard to understand Nina, nor did he intend to. In any case, he definitely wouldn’t give her any chances to act out. After a long silence, he recalled what Frank had suggested. “Nina, do you want to marry me?” Nina was stunned, unable to believe her ears. Clearly, Zachary had pretended to be ill just to see Jane. She had been trying to find a way, and now he suddenly propos

    Right now, taking a risky move was the best way to break the deadlock. But… Charlotte put down her phone and asked Jane, “Are you serious? You just said someone stood by your side, and you were happy. Why are you saying this now? What you mean by breaking up—do you mean a permanent breakup or just a temporary separation until he handles things with Nina?” Jane wanted to have a drink, but she couldn’t because of the medication. She took a sip of water and said, “It’s a breakup. I can’t reach the Collins family. Having been there is enough for me. I don’t want him to sever ties with his family because of me. My biological father, though he has severed ties, we still have a father-daughter relationship. In the future, Zachary will go into politics. My father could become his liability. So, if I can’t help him, I shouldn’t hold him back.” Charlotte felt heartbroken. Frank had recorded these words in Madam Collins' room and sent them to Charlotte. She had intended to keep it f

    “Came to check on you.”Zachary handed her the water.After she finished drinking, he took it back and asked, “Do you want more?”Jane shook her head, sat up, and wrapped herself in a blanket. Once her thoughts were clearer, she said, “I’m fine, you can go back.”Zachary looked at her without speaking.Jane also remained silent. After a while, she seemed to understand why Zachary was there.“It was Charlotte who said something, right?”“Yeah, she said you planned to break up with me.”Jane’s lips moved slightly.When she was chatting with Charlotte, she indeed had that thought.But in front of Zachary, she found it hard to express.Still, given the current situation, she felt she needed to make a decision.When one has something, they may not feel how important it is.Trying to lose it for a moment can help face one’s true feelings.Then it would be a choice between completely separating or overcoming obstacles together.“Yeah, I really…”“Put that thought away.”Zac

    Zachary couldn't accept it. The moonlight fell on him, wrapping him in a layer of coldness. He sat on the coffee table, his long legs sprawling out, casually enclosing her in his territory. But he knew he couldn’t hold Jane back. When they were together, he had said that he wouldn’t restrain her. He allowed her to remain free and unrestrained. Even though he was reluctant, after a long silence, he still acquiesced to her wishes. “Okay.” The door opened and closed. The dim living room was left with a chill. If it weren’t for the lingering familiar scent of tobacco, Jane might have felt that Zachary had never been there. When Zachary left, he took Roy with him. But he still left a bodyguard to protect Jane, in case someone took advantage of the chaos to harm her. What he didn’t expect was that barely a few steps out the door, someone else entered. Jane disliked the dark, so she turned on all the lights in the room. She intended to call Charlot

    “But I know this date isn’t 100% accurate. However, I consulted a doctor who said drinking this can help relieve menstrual pain.” It might have been the reason that Jane had bumped her head, she was being a little slow. “That’s too late, I already…” Her mouth always ran ahead while her brain lagged behind. After a short pause, she reached out and took the bowl, downing it in one gulp. “Thanks anyway.” Michael caught the main point. “Jane, you’re on your period?” “Yeah.” Jane grabbed her phone to place a delivery order. Michael inadvertently saw what she was doing and said, “I’ll go. Some delivery guys might not want to take this kind of order, I used to do deliveries.” This was the first time Jane had called a delivery guy to buy sanitary pads. She usually prepared in advance. But with everything going on lately and bumping her head, she had forgotten. “Wait.” Michael seemed to remember something and hurriedly added, “Call Mr. Collins. He’s your b

    Jane rolled her eyes at him.Zachary, however, let out a deep smile from his eyes."Have fun here. I have some things to take care of. We'll go to the banquet together tonight."Jane couldn't care less about him, waving her hand.Zachary patted her head before leaving.A young girl, smiling, teased, "You and your boyfriend have such a good relationship."Jane wanted to explain, but she didn't think it was necessary. Maybe she wouldn’t come to this place again. Even if she did, she could explain it next time.She smiled. "Could you teach me how to make the embroideries?"The girl happily agreed.Embroidery was indeed very time-consuming and mentally draining. Jane spent the whole day sitting there, embroidering, only getting up to eat or use the restroom.She learned a stitching technique and completed a small piece.When she stood up to stretch her stiff back and neck, she saw Zachary walking toward her."Did you have fun?"Jane tossed the piece of embroidery at him dismis

    It was as if he could hear her thoughts. “I only said it to you.”Jane pushed him. "Go sit across from me.""Isn't it better for me to sit next to you? If I sit opposite from you, you’ll lose your appetite."Sitting next to him would only lead to more physical contact, making her even less able to eat."Just sit across from me."Zachary obeyed, standing up and moving to the opposite side. He then filled her cup with some more tea."Be careful with the tea. It’s hot. Don’t burn yourself."The breakfast they had was satisfying.Jane didn’t want to spend more time with Zachary, so she planned to talk to Dominic about intangible cultural heritage and the national trend.But Zachary directly shoved her into the car.She couldn’t escape, so she turned her back to him, ignoring him.Zachary didn’t provoke her either. He sat beside her, focused on his tablet, looking at recent work arrangements.In the front seats, Raymond and Ross exchanged glances.Ross didn’t slow down while ta

    He didn’t even furrow his brows."If hitting me will make you feel better, go ahead and hit me. Just make sure I’m still alive after you’re done. That way, I’ll still be able to make arrangements for you if someone bullies you."Jane snorted coldly. "You’re the one who’s bullying me.""Well, I admit that." His gaze burned with intensity as he looked at her. "I can’t live without you."Jane sneered. "Oh, so because you can’t live without me, you bully me?""How can having sex be seen as bullying you?"‘He’s so annoying.’Jane didn’t want to talk about these ambiguous topics with him."Let go, I need to wash up."Zachary released her, but Jane, still irritated, kicked him.Zachary, however, seemed to be in a great mood.Once she finished her makeup and changed clothes, they went out to eat together.As Zachary introduced Nelana to her, Jane became more and more upset."You know so much about Nelana, you must have already arranged everything in advance. So, last night, you we

    The phone was still turned off.But even though she was angry, Jane knew that Zachary wasn’t crazy enough to take someone’s life just because he was upset.She figured he just didn’t want her to contact Dominic tonight.She would call him tomorrow instead.However, when she woke up, she didn’t expect Dominic to be the one calling her first."Are you okay?"They both spoke at the same time.After saying that, both of them laughed.Dominic was still a little dazed. "Do you know what happened to me?""After I paid the bill yesterday, two tall and burly men in black suits dragged me into a car, and I passed out right away. I woke up this morning, having slept on the floor all night. My neck was sore from sleeping on the ground, and I think I might be catching a cold. Achoo—"Jane cursed Zachary inwardly.How petty! What was wrong with putting Dominic on his bed?"One of my friends is a weirdo, sorry for the trouble."Dominic sniffed. "It wasn’t too bad. By the way, is he your

    Knock knock—There was a knock at the door.Zachary stood up to open it.Raymond handed him a chicken pizza.He sensed that the atmosphere wasn’t quite right and, gathering some courage, she asked, "Sir, you didn’t have anything for dinner. Should I have the hotel bring something over?"Zachary nodded and mentioned a few dishes.Raymond agreed and went to instruct the hotel.He happened to run into Ross on his way back and they chatted."I have no idea what Miss Greenwood might want. Mr. Collins doesn’t even know what he likes to eat himself, but he remembers what she likes."Ross, eating a sandwich, said, "Doesn’t Mr. Collins like roast chicken?"He remembered that when Miss Greenwood brought food to the Mr. Collins’s house last time, she had mentioned it.Raymond shot him a look. "You’re a blockhead. That’s what Miss Greenwood likes. Now, the things that Mr. Collins like are because they’re what Miss Greenwood likes."Ross blinked. "Oh."Raymond was rendered speechless.

    Jane said, "This is not something you should be doing.""I caused the injury, so I should be the one to handle it.""I'll do it myself!"Zachary held her hands, "You can't see the injury, you have long nails as well. What if you hurt yourself again? I think I should apply the medicine."Jane felt helpless."Zachary, I’ll just ask you one thing, can you understand what I’m saying?""I’ve already ordered pizza. It’ll be delivered soon."‘As expected, he doesn’t understand what I said,’ thought Jane.Jane was no match for Zachary in terms of strength or words, so she ended up crying.Zachary stopped.Jane immediately broke free from his hands and sat on the other side of the bed."Do you only feel happy when you see me in pain?"Zachary pursed his lips. "No.""Then why do you insist on forcing me to do things I don't want to do? I’m a person, not some item that you can do whatever you want to.""Is that how you see me?" Zachary looked at her, his eyes darkened slightly. "I l

    "I was just handling some matters, but I can't tell you. Please understand."Jane seemed to believe him and nodded. "I see."Raymond also nodded. "That's right."Jane smiled. "You were handling matters, but what about the others?""They also have their own matters to deal with.""So..." Jane’s gaze suddenly became sharp. "You all went off to work, but there's no one guarding the hotel entrance? Aren’t you worried that while he’s in bed with me, his enemies might come and kill him? After all, the bed is when a man is most vulnerable. You’re a man, so you should understand that, right?"For a moment, Raymond seemed distracted, as if he had seen his Mr. Collins casually asking him what mistake he had made.Then, with a cold tone, he would be sent off to Afrealia, just like Roy.The more you say, the more mistakes you make. He stopped explaining and simply said."Miss Greenwood, it’s not safe outside. You should stay in the hotel and wait for Mr. Collins."Jane didn’t believe the

    He placed the pillow behind her waist and asked gently, "What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone prepare it."Jane glared at him and said, "Get out!"Zachary took her hand and said, "There’s a banquet tomorrow. Come with me."Jane pulled her hand back and replied coldly, "You’re really sick.""Yes, and you’re the reason I”m sick."Jane raised her hand, intending to hit him. "Get out!"Zachary grabbed her wrist and smiled.Jane felt that he was seriously ill and decided it was better to just leave.But as soon as she lifted the blanket, a cold wind blew, and she quickly pulled it back up."Turn around!"Her teeth were clenched in anger, wishing she could bite him.Zachary's gaze slid over her body. "What are you hiding?""I..."Jane covered his mouth. "Don’t be such a pervert."Zachary held her hand. "The banquet tomorrow has to do with the purpose of your trip. Are you really not going?""How do you know what I came here for?"Zachary didn’t answer, just looked at he

    Annie saw the red marks on his neck as he moved.There was also a bite mark on his Adam's apple.Both marks told her of the wildness he had shared with Jane just moments ago.The thing she feared most had happened."And not even a day apart," Zachary said again, his voice was cold enough to send shivers down one’s spine.Annie met his sharp gaze, instinctively taking a step back.But then she felt it was wrong and moved forward to stand in front of him."What are you saying? I don’t understand," she said, reaching out to grab his arm.Zachary turned sideways to avoid her, and Ross immediately restrained Annie, kicking her in the knee and forcing her to kneel on the ground."Zachary!"Annie had never been so humiliated before.Since childhood, everyone had always revolved around her.She was given everything she wanted.Without speaking, people would rush to her, handing her things that were close to her heart.Zachary was no different, he had been delivered to her by her
