Chapter 7

Author: Lean
Ryan was a little surprised at my actions, but said nothing.

I pursed my lips and said softly, "What happened on the night of our wedding?"

I could still remember waiting on the balcony the whole night for him.

Ryan abandoned his newly wedded wife on the night of their wedding and left without saying a word.

I thought it was because of something important and worried about his safety. I even thought that he was unhappy with something I had done and hoped that he would come back home soon.

Back then, I was only 23 years old. I somehow was able to marry the man that I had a crush on for years.

How could I not look forward to our marriage?

I only found out today that he was with another woman during our wedding night.

Everything sounded like a joke.

Ryan didn't keep anything from me. His voice was still soft. "She went street racing that night and had an accident. I was notified by the police to pick her up."

'What a coincidence. She just had to have an accident on the night of

    I didn't want to understand Tom's perverted joke, but I still did.Jane chuckled and said, "It's not, but it didn't really satisfy me."I looked at Jane in disbelief as if asking her what she was talking about."We slept with each other once. It wasn't a great experience." Jane didn't care if Tom was right next to her or not.Tom stomped his foot sulkily. "That was my first time. What do you know anyway!""Stop right there! I can't be held responsible! You're just a playboy, so don't talk about your first time with me. You've probably lost your virginity to these anyway." Jane interrupted and pointed to Tom's hands.I looked at Tom, who was usually the playboy and saw him blush. Only then did I figure out what was going on.The two of them had a one-night stand and Tom was probably pursuing Jane at the moment.Jane ignored Tom and led me towards a private room. "A senior in university has returned to the country. Tom and the others organized this party and asked me to tag along

    Every move they made felt like a slap in the face to me.My heart ached more and more.I had imagined such a scene countless times.As I watched what was happening, I began to feel cold even though I was at home."Charlotte, you're awake!" Jessica said with a smile when she turned around and saw me. "Come and have a taste of Ryan's cooking. I promise you it's delicious."As soon as she said those words, she began placing dishes on the dining table as if she were the hostess of the house.I took a deep breath, walked past her, looked at Ryan, and asked, "Why is she in our house?"Ryan brought out the last dish, removed his apron, and said coldly, "She'll get lost after having lunch.""How can you be so heartless? Are you really going to kick me out of the house?" Jessica glared at him."That's enough, Jessica! I'll kick you out myself if I get any more from you!" Ryan's was dark and sounded like his patience had run out."You're so mean," Jessica mumbled as she dragged me over to the di

    The date that my parents died was the following Saturday as well.I planned on going to the hospital in the morning and then going to my parents' grave after the checkup.It wouldn't take too long.I somehow had a bad feeling about my plan on Saturday, but I couldn't tell what was wrong. This caused me to be unable to tell Ryan about the baby.It also caused me to be unable to tell Jane if I was going to take Ryan to my parents' grave or not.Things might change at any moment.The relationship between Ryan and Jessica was like a time bomb in my heart.Seeing that my spirit wasn't really high, she glanced in the direction of Jessica's office. "Has Ryan taken care of that bitch?""More or less."The two of us chatted for a while longer before Jane returned to the Marketing Department.I didn't know if Jessica had come to her senses or something, but nothing happened for the next couple of days.I was worried that she wasn't going to pass my designs, but things went more smooth

    Everything that I had been looking forward to disappeared. I was completely disappointed.I felt that it was probably the feeling of being hopeless.I held the phone and was at a loss for words for a long time.There were some questions that I wanted to ask, but there was no point anymore.It was obvious where Ryan had gone.But he promised me that there wasn't going to be a next time.Therefore, this was his choice.The answer was obvious.All Grownups knew that in order to gain something, they had to first give up something else.I was probably the person he decided to sacrifice after careful consideration.I subconsciously rubbed my stomach. I suddenly began to wonder if I really should keep the child.If I decided to keep the child, then it would be very hard to cut off my connections with Ryan.The custody of the child alone would be a big problem."Charlotte?" Ryan called my name on the other end of the line."Okay."I didn't say anything else, or should I say I di

    It was the third time that day.I had tried to tell Ryan about the child three times, but was never able to.It seemed that Ryan was destined not to meet the baby in my child.I was glad that I didn't tell him. That way, the divorce would be much simpler.Jelaston was a big city. If Ryan and I got divorced, it would be almost impossible for the two of us to meet again.Ryan would probably never find out that we had a child.Jane agreed with me after hearing what I had in mind. "Your child won't want a scumbag for a father. You're doing the right thing for not telling him."By the time I finished the IV drop and left the hospital, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.Jane wrapped her arms around mine as we headed to the car park. "Your car has been sent to the garage for repairs. It was quite badly damaged and repairs would probably take a week. I'll go with you to collect your car when the repairs are finished. If you want to go anywhere for the next few days, you can j

    "What?" I was dumbfounded.Ryan continued casually, "Jack Renolds. Wasn't he the one who gave you a lift back home that night? You went to see him as soon as he came back into the country."His voice was full of disdain and self-mockery.I furrowed my brows and locked gazes with him. I then asked in disbelief, "Are you saying that I have feelings for Jack?""Do you not?" He curved his lips into a sneer.To me, his expression was full of mockery.An uncontrollable anger that I had never felt arose in my head. I raised my hand and slapped him. "You're such a bastard, Ryan!"I tried my best to not cry, but tears still welled up in my eyes.After crying for a while, I couldn't help but laugh.It was hilarious. I loved Ryan for so many years, but in the end, all he could do was ask me if I had divorced him for another man. It was pointless to say anymore.Jane had arrived without me noticing and Tom was behind her.She dragged me out of the house, looked at Tom who seemed to be i

    Ryan and I weren’t even officially divorced yet and Jessica was already in such a rush to get his things back.The shares were worth way too much, so I never planned on keeping them.I just didn’t want Jessica to get what she wanted so easily.I frowned slightly. "Who are you to ask me such a question?"Jessica chuckled arrogantly. "Are you trying to seize the shares? Those were given to Ryan's wife by Ryan himself. Once you divorce him, the shares won't belong to you anymore!""Have you still not gone to see a doctor?" I asked. "You need to go see a doctor as soon as possible. Otherwise, you might end up in a mental hospital and not just medication."Jessica squinted her eyes. "Charlotte, are you calling me crazy?!"I couldn't be bothered to argue with her, so I asked softly, "Have you received the letter of resignation? Please approve it as soon as possible.""Do I need you to tell me what to do? I submitted it to the Human Resource Department last night." She wished that I c

    After hearing that question, I realized that besides William, there was another gaze fixed on me tightly.I actually found it hard to answer William's question.I didn't want to lie to William, but if I told the truth, William would definitely not allow us to get a divorce.After hesitating for a while, before I could say anything, William seemed to have already got an answer. "Alright, I think I know the answer. Please stay by his side for me. This kid didn't have a mother to raise him, that's why he has such a bad temper. Please forgive him."Finally, he grabbed Ryan's ear and said, "If you think I've been around for too long, you're welcome to piss me off so much that I die of a heart attack or something. No one will stop you two from getting a divorce if I'm not around.""Are you trying to use your life to force me to do something?" Ryan asked with a meaningful smile."How dare you speak to me like that?"William was furious and was about to hit him again, but Ryan dodged th

    Jordan quickly reached out to push him away, “You’re really getting old, don’t be so touchy.”Westley remained unmoved, letting out a mocking chuckle. “Do you want me to prove how old I am?”Jordan didn’t want to talk to him anymore. “Let go.”Westley, however, took a step forward, spreading her legs apart with his knee.Jordan panicked. “Don’t do anything rash, or I...”“Or what?”Westley lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose. “It’s hard enough for you to push me away, do you think those threats are useful? You’re so naive.”Jordan could only speak the truth. “I didn’t try to seduce you, don’t get me wrong, I just want to grab the phone in your pocket.”Westley made an ‘oh’ sound, laced with subtle sarcasm.Jordan immediately grabbed his neck. “Are you letting me go or not?”Westley didn’t care, not even furrowing his brows, he looked at her with a smile in his eyes.Jordan really exerted force but couldn’t move him an inch.Finally, feeling defeated, she sighed.

    “You...”She was facing away, unable to see Westley’s expression.But she could imagine what his expression was.He must have looked a little smug.‘What a childish old man.’“We’re about to find a place to land. You don’t have much time, are you going to take the photo or not?”“Alright!”Jordan hurriedly grabbed the camera, hung it around her neck, and started capturing the view.After she finished taking the pictures, Westley began the descent.When her feet finally touched the ground, Jordan’s soul seemed to return.She quickly started to undo the straps on her body, but couldn’t manage to get it done.Westley took advantage of this and hugged her from behind, watching her fumble, even laughing.Jordan was so angry she felt powerless, cursing at him. “You’re such a jerk.”“Okay.” Westley rested his chin on her shoulder and even kissed her neck. “Cuss some more. Say more insults.”Jordan gritted her teeth. “Hurry up and let go, I need to use the bathroom.”Westley rel

    She hadn’t had time to grab her phone.There were no communication devices in the room.Just as she was about to leave, thinking of breaking through from Westley, he suddenly entered.She quickly stepped back, hugging herself, her voice trembling.“What do you want?”Westley threw a set of clothes at her, saying indifferently, “If I wanted to do something, could you really avoid it? That’s really unnecessary."Jordan didn’t want to talk to him any longer.The clothes were brought by him, but she didn’t refuse.At this point, it was better to have clothes on than stay in a bathrobe.If there was an opportunity to escape, it would also be easier."Aren’t... aren’t you going out?"Just as she was about to change, she noticed Westley leaning against the door, his arms crossed, watching her leisurely.It was hard to imagine that all these recent events were done by a 35-year-old mature man.She never realized that Westley was so childish at his core.Seeing that he had no inte

    He drank some water and forced it down.Jane was extremely worried. "Go to the hospital.""It's fine..."Zachary’s voice was a bit hoarse, his throat moved, and he took a deep breath to calm himself before continuing, "I’m fine, it’s just a candy, it’ll dissolve when it’s mixed with water."Jane cupped his face, checking his throat, and then realized the lights were off.She was about to turn on the lights when he held her."I’m really fine, don’t panic, let me hold you for a while."Jane stroked his head and asked, "What’s going on?"It was a matter regarding Jordan, he actually didn’t dare to tell her, fearing she would get upset.He also hadn’t expected her to wake up halfway through the night.Could it be that sisters have a sixth sense?"It’s nothing, I just feel a bit tired lately. You’re about to give birth, and I’m anxious."Jane sensed something was off. "Did you forget? We agreed not to hide anything from each other."Before Zachary could speak, his phone vibrate

    Jordan felt completely limp when she was released to catch her breath.Her cheeks were flushed pink, especially when she felt his fingers, still gripping her waist, wet with moisture.Thinking back to what he had just done, her body flushed with heat, and her exposed skin turned red.She slapped him again, but her hand had no strength left."Trying to scratch me?"His voice, usually rich and deep, now carried an undertone of desire.It made her feel dangerous.Luckily, the slap just now wasn’t hard.Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to resist his hold, and she didn't know what he would have done to her.Unable to fight back, unable to escape.Her emotions surged, and once again, she lost control, tears flowing uncontrollably.Westley took a tissue, gently wiping her tears away.What he said, however, made her want to strangle him."I’d rather see you cry in that situation."Jordan had almost suffocated under his onslaught of kisses earlier.Now, her breathing slowly

    She stared at Westley’s eyes, which seemed to spit fire.She hated him so much that she wished she could tear him apart.But Westley just smiled. "You thought that by finding your brother, you'd have a protector?""You didn't even think about it—he’s just the head of a magazine, how could he have so much power to protect you?"Global Magazine wasn’t a privately owned company.How could the head of it have no power?And Nathan’s aura wasn’t that of an ordinary businessman.The car he drove wasn’t something a simple businessman could afford.Jordan wasn’t stupid.She wasn’t going to rely on just anyone to protect her.“Westley, what exactly do you want?”Westley didn’t expect her to react this way.Since Nathan wanted to play this game, not directly acknowledging Jordan as his relative, Westley didn’t plan to expose it either.He didn’t want Jordan to feel protected by the Jackson family and think she could escape him.She could never escape him in this lifetime.“Isn’t wh

    At that time, there was no need for a marriage alliance to strengthen their position, as long as they liked each other and the person had good character and could take care of his daughter, that was enough.Therefore, there was a strict requirement that the children must carry the Jackson surname.However, the eldest daughter eventually married someone talented. She had a son, which led to a disagreement over the surname.Due to the pressure from the Jackson family’s power, they compromised and allowed the child to take the Jackson surname.So, when something happened within the Jackson family, they abandoned the eldest daughter. They had already had other children outside and had multiple offspring by then.Their reasoning was absurd. They had money and wanted more children, but since the eldest daughter refused to bear more children and wouldn’t let them carry their surname, they sought others instead.At that time, they also wanted Nathan, but Nathan voluntarily stayed with Ca

    Because they looked so alike, she had initially assumed they were siblings.Even just now, when Jean had targeted Jordan, treating her as a rival, she had mocked Jean without giving it much thought.However, she had forgotten.There was no evidence proving they were siblings.Nathan had been overly considerate of Jordan.After dinner, Nathan drove them back to the hotel.They had been out all day and were feeling a bit tired.Jordan declined Nathan’s invitation to go somewhere else.She noticed Jasmine looked rather down.She thought it was because of Nathan, so she decided to bring her back to the hotel to comfort her."Thank you, Nathan. Drive safely on the roads."Nathan nodded. "If anything comes up, don’t hesitate to call me. I can always answer your calls, don’t worry about troubling me. Since you see me as your brother, that makes us family."Jordan agreed and waved at him.As she was about to grab Jasmine’s arm, she noticed she hadn’t said a word and had already wa

    Jane said, "Sure enough, when you love someone, even if you lose your memory, you’ll still be moved when you see them again."Charlotte glanced at the picture of Nathan and said, "But your brother doesn’t seem to care. If he wanted to find her, it would be easier for him than for us."Jane leaned back on the cushion, drinking water as if it were alcohol, giving it a little swirl for enjoyment."My cousin has always been emotionally detached. It’s not easy to make him care. But once he does, he will love deeply, and he will be devoted to that one person for life."Charlotte also leaned back, propping her face up with her hand and asking, "Your brother’s background... isn’t there pressure to form a marriage alliance?"Jane replied, "He should, but if he ends up liking Jasmine, I can help. After all, we do have some influence now."Charlotte smiled. "But who doesn’t want to reach for the stars?""Your cousin’s marriage alliance, plus you, would make the Jackson family's position ev
