Jane cocked her brows. “This is the key point. He likes me, feels guilty towards me, and wants to apologize. Therefore, it stands to reason that he wants to reveal the truth to me.”

Charlotte nodded in agreement. “But given the current situation, a person’s testimony is useless. We need both Nina and Michael’s statements to match in order to deal with Nina. At least we have a direction for the investigation.”

“That’s true.”

Jane flipped over and sat up. “Let’s ask during dinner.”

Charlotte also got up and checked her phone. “They went drinking.”

Jane just nodded and opened the bedroom door to go out.

Michael came out of the kitchen and saw her, showing a gentle smile. “Jane, Charlotte, it’s time to eat.”

Charlotte looked at the table filled with a variety of delicious dishes.

She whispered to Jane, “He really put in effort for you, but unfortunately, feelings are uncontrollable.”

Jane handed her cutlery. “Since you’re here, have a taste.”

Charlotte wasn’t

    “I can’t believe you guys didn’t tell me that you were coming to drink.” The sweet and innocent one was always carefree, completely oblivious. He raised his glass to clink with the two, cheerful, as if there was nothing in the world that could trouble him. “I feel like you’re isolating me now. Forget about Frank, he has a family. But Zachary, what’s your excuse? I haven’t seen you out drinking these days. You have a girlfriend or something?” Zachary didn’t even spare him a glance and just drank silently. Charlie then noticed something was off and asked Frank, “Frank, did his true love abandon him again?” Frank leaned back on the sofa, his long fingers holding the wine glass, making it look like a piece of art. He spoke in a laid-back tone, “Not exactly.” Charlie sat down next to Zachary and casually put his arm around his shoulder. “Your true love hasn’t abandoned you then why do you look like you’ve broken up? I’ve never looked this way when I broke up.” Zac

    "Look at me. Jane rejected me. Although I was sad at that time, I’m doing fine now. Recently, I met a few younger girls, and they were all quite good. How about I call them over to accompany with you for a while? I guarantee that you would feel energized right away."Zachary pressed Charlie against the coffee table, placing a beer bottle against his head."What nonsense are you talking about? Where did I get my true love?"Charlie extended his index finger and subtly moved the bottle aside."Wasn't Nina your true love? When you were a child, you almost fell out with your family over her. When she returned to the country, you personally went to pick her up and seemed quite happy. It’s alright, Zachary, don’t be sad. She has grown up now and must understand that she can’t marry you, so she rejected you. It’s not that you’re not good enough."Zachary did go to pick up Nina, but it wasn’t something to be happy about. Most of his feelings he had was guilt because she had nearly been

    No one answered Charlie. Zachary had already stumbled out of the private room. Frank followed him, to prevent him from causing a scene. He didn’t want to be dragged into it later. "Roy." Roy immediately appeared, and Frank pushed Zachary in front of him. "Take him to his place." "To Jane's house," said Zachary. Roy only listened to Zachary. "Sorry, Mr. Smith." Frank couldn’t just let him cause trouble, but he also didn’t want to spend the night watching over him. "I know you’re not drunk to the point of being unconscious." Frank knew better than anyone about Zachary's alcohol tolerance. If he got drunk after just a few drinks, he wouldn’t have survived all those times out there. "Zachary, listen, Jane is Charlotte’s best friend. You’d better handle this like a man. If you hurt her, no matter how you beg me, I won't help you at all." "Wait..." Charlie came out. "Frank, what does Jane have to do with Zachary?" Frank touched his wedding ring, suppressing his ir

    "I’m set as your emergency contact on your phone. If there's something, you don't need to scroll through your contacts, just press the power button five times to call me." "I know, you’ve already told me about it before." Jane felt Frank's jealousy. "Let’s head back. Let me know when you’re home." Charlotte nodded. Once in the car, Frank held her and said softly in her ear, "You didn’t set me as your emergency contact. You’re my emergency contact." Charlotte felt that this man was so powerful outside and everyone feared him. Yet in front of her, he acted like a poor little puppy. It was quite amusing. "Mr. Smith is so powerful. Is there anything that needs me to solve?" "There is." Frank nipped at the soft flesh of her neck. "Like right now." He placed her hand on his belt. Charlotte was rendered speechless. Jane finished washing up and lay down to sleep. However, she rolled over countless times and couldn’t fall asleep. She wondered if she had napped too long

    Rebecca sat on the sofa, with a pile of invitations spread out on the coffee table. Zachary poured a glass of water and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?" Rebecca gestured for him to sit. "Can we talk for a moment?" Zachary sat down and asked, "About what?" Rebecca inquired, "Have you really made up your mind?" Zachary replied with a soft "Yes." "You aren’t willing to wait a month. You’re using such an extreme method just for her. Are you willing to do anything, even if it goes against your principles?" Zachary leaned back against the sofa, raising a hand to massage his temples In reality, he glanced upstairs. He replied coolly, "I broke up with her. It’s not for her." Rebecca thought she misheard. "What did you say?" Zachary didn’t repeat himself. He asked, "What else is there to discuss? If there’s nothing, I’m going to bed." Rebecca stopped him, still unable to fully believe it. "Then what about the wedding..." "Proceed as usual." He left t

    "Miss Greenwood, as long as you accept the food, I will naturally leave." Jane got angry. "If you keep this up, I’ll call the police." Roy responded, "Feel free to do as you wish, Miss Greenwood, but please accept the food. It will get cold soon." Jane didn’t want to be bothered. "I can accept it this time, but no more deliveries in the future. Otherwise, we’ll meet at the police station." Roy thought that delivering it once was better than nothing. He would find a way next time. "Alright, please open the door." Jane opened the door and took the food. She slammed the door shut with a bang. She really didn’t want to eat the food, but throwing it away would be a waste. After thinking for a while, she called someone over. Roy immediately reported to Zachary. "Sir, Miss Greenwood ordered an in-home massage." Zachary remained in his room, not going out. The food delivered to Jane was ordered from her favorite restaurant. He had initially planned to coo

    When Jane saw Roy again on the video doorbell, she cursed in annoyance. She didn’t plan to respond. But the doorbell kept ringing. She called security to ask about the situation and received a shocking reply. "You said he moved to my neighborhood?" "Yes, Miss Greenwood." Jane felt a surge of anger rising, causing the bump on her forehead to throb. "He's living right across from me?" The security guard hadn't anticipated this situation either. Rich people truly had enviable resources. "Miss Greenwood, I'm sorry, but he is now a property owner. I can't force him to leave. If he continues to bother you, I still recommend you call the police, or if it's inconvenient for you, I can call them." "No need, I’ll handle it myself." Jane hung up the phone and opened the door. The first thing she said to Roy was, "Where is Zachary?" Roy moved aside. Jane walked across the hallway and knocked hard on the door. Her continuous motions displayed her impa

    Upon learning he was at her house, she had to head back. She left the car in the underground car park and walked out to meet him. “Have you finally decided to tell me the truth?” Michael, however, answered with a different question. “Jane, would you be willing to leave Jeswood with me?” Zachary returned to the Collins family’s residence. As soon as he entered, he saw the living room was filled with people. Only Nina was absent. His family and the doctor seemed to be discussing something. “What’s going on?” Dr. Travis replied, “Mr. Smith, the pregnancy isn’t very stable during the first four weeks. Miss Linton was bleeding because she has been exhausted from trying on wedding dresses. The child is fine, but she still needs to rest. You and Miss Linton can postpone the wedding a bit, ideally until she is 12 weeks along when it is most stable. Because Miss Linton’s health isn’t great to begin with. If this pregnancy doesn’t hold, it may be difficult for her to b

    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
