Chapter 821

Author: Lean
Jane hung up the phone, not wanting to continue listening. The content wasn’t really appropriate.

She went to the kitchen and asked, "What did you make?"

At Region Gardens.

Charlotte pressed against the man who was moving closer. "What does Zachary mean?"

Frank truthfully informed her.

Charlotte furrowed her brows. "His intentions are good, but the method... Jane's quite a carefree person, she doesn't mind much, but I think Zachary's approach is somewhat biased."

"Doesn't matter."

Frank caught her hand that was pressing against him and kissed it. "You should worry more about me."

Michael made a couple of dishes.

All of them were Jane's favorites.

Jane eagerly grabbed some food and placed it in her mouth, giving a thumbs up. "Delicious."

Michael served her some soup.

Jane took a sip, clicking her tongue. "When did you learn to cook?"

His cooking skills were really quite good.

Michael nodded. "I worked in a restaurant before."

Jane thought about his family situation. "How

    Roy had something he wanted to say, but when he met Zachary's cold gaze, he quickly backed off.Nina sat up and looked at him. "Zachary, you still don't understand women. It’s quite rare for someone like Jane to genuinely fall in love with someone. If you upset her this time, it will be very difficult for her to open her heart to you again. I sincerely suggest that you go and talk things out with her now. That's the best solution."Zachary continued to look at the documents on his computer.But Nina didn't stop just because he wasn't speaking."Even if you use me to shield her, what happens after I die? What will you do then? Are you going to find another woman to ask as a shield for her? Let's not talk about your enemies. The Collins family won't approve of this either. Besides, your enemies aren't fools. They'll be watching you like locusts drawn to blood. They won't stop until they've eradicated you. Zachary, once you go down that path, you'll never be able to be with Jane. She'

    At the exit of the car park, there was an off-road vehicle parked there.Zachary leaned against the front of the car, his long fingers holding a cigarette.His indifferent gaze pierced through the windshield of the car and landed on Jane's face.Jane didn't even glance at him. She turned the steering wheel and sped onto the main road.Roy was just as clueless. He didn't know what Zachary was doing there so early in the morning, torturing himself.Zachary turned and got into the car.Roy quickly recognized the situation and sat in the passenger seat, fastening his seatbelt.The next second, the car shot out like an arrow from the bow.He quickly grabbed the handle to steady himself.The black off-road vehicle stood out even in the heavy morning traffic.Soon, Zachary caught up with Jane's car.At a set of traffic lights, he stopped steadily beside her.Despite the cold weather, Zachary rolled down his window, casually resting his arm on the ledge. The watch on his wrist caug

    Rebecca looked at his expression and asked, "Did you have a quarrel with Jane?"Zachary didn't respond.Rebecca recalled that yesterday, he had been parked behind her car. He must have heard it when Jane introduced her boyfriend. She thought that Zachary, being quiet about it, might have managed to hold back, but now, early this morning, he had gone there himself."Your neck… Did Jane do this?" she asked.Zachary controlled his emotions and replied, "If you have something to say, just say it."Rebecca didn't beat around the bush. "Cancel the wedding with Nina."Zachary refused. "If that's all you want to discuss, I'll have to excuse myself."Seeing him about to leave, Rebecca pressed him down and started to advise him with earnestness. "Son, this is your first relationship. You don't understand what's going on in the heads of women. If you go ahead with the wedding with Nina, Jane will never forgive you."Zachary remained indifferent. "Isn't this what you all want?"Rebecca wa

    Charlotte took out the invitation. "I can't leave for now. Zachary's wedding... it's in three days."Frank, being Zachary's childhood friend, couldn't possibly miss it.Jane glanced at the invitation and said, "Then I'll head over and wait for you guys.""Are you planning to stay for a while, or are you planning to get married?" Charlotte teased.Jane brushed her hair back and said with a meaningful smile, "Well, who knows?"Charlotte said, "Whatever you do, I’ve got your back, as long as you're happy."After organizing some work for the company, Jane booked a flight to Jeswood. Before taking off, she sent a message to Michael.Just as she was about to fall asleep after putting her phone down, the person next to her moved, then sat down again.That familiar, sharp scent of tobacco made her frown.Turning her head, she came face to face with the always cold and distant handsome face.After Jane's career took off and she started earning money, she never deprived herself.Of co

    ‘He’s like a madman, biting anyone he saw,’ thought Jane."Jane, have some water to rinse your mouth."Jane took the water.She rinsed her mouth and drank a few more sips.At least it helped to calm her down a little.Michael raised his hand and gently patted her back to help her breathe.Jane took a few deep breaths.Before she could exhale the last breath, the car suddenly braked hard.The driver cursed loudly.After steadying herself, Jane looked over between the two seats.She saw two cars blocking the taxi ahead.Before she could react, the car door on her side was opened.A bony hand reached in and pulled her out.Michael quickly tried to stop him, but was pressed back by Roy."Zachary, let go!" Jane struggled, but Zachary directly lifted her up and strode toward the black sedan.He sat her down in the back seat and ordered the driver to drive.Jane was furious and slapped him again.Zachary tapped his cheek with his tongue, his voice calm as he said, "If you'r

    Zachary furrowed his brows. "You didn't understand what I meant, or…""I understood." Jane interrupted him. "You used Nina to protect me.""But I don’t need that. Nina made a mistake. She should bear the consequences of her actions. But she has no obligation to be my shield. And I don't need her to be a shield for me. If I were to be with you, I'd naturally be prepared for everything that’s coming at me. But Zachary, we’ve broken up now."After saying that, Jane tried to get up from his lap.Zachary tightened his large hand around her slender waist. "I never wanted to break up with you. I agreed because I didn't want you to be unhappy. But if you want to be with Michael, then I can't go along with it."When they were in love, communication didn't seem difficult.At Jane’s house, they had spent sweet and happy times together.But after suggesting the break up, Jane realized many problems.It wasn't something that could be solved with just saying "I love you."To be honest, she

    "You don't need to be with Michael, I won't keep you trapped."Wasn't that still a demand?She had to do what he said to gain freedom.Jane shook her head.Zachary felt like his head was going to explode.After giving it some thought, the conversation returned to the original question."What's the reason you wanted to break up with me? Did you fall in love with Michael?"Jane had been flying back and forth on planes these past couple of days and she was really tired.She had originally planned to rest for a bit in the lounge chair when she arrived at Madam Hall's little courtyard.The food on the plane wasn't tasty, and Michael had sent her a message when she landed, saying that Madam Hall had specially prepared dinner for her.There was also roasted potato.But instead, Zachary had restrained her, and she hadn't had the chance to rest. She was still hungry.She had no patience to argue with him any longer."Yes."As soon as she finished speaking, she went from sitting to

    Jane smiled, "Thank you, Madam Hall.""No need to thank me."Michael brought the food to the table. "Let’s dig in."Jane was truly hungry. She first drank a glass of orange juice to get her stomach started, then began eating heartily.It wasn't fully dark yet. The mountains in the distance were bathed in an orange glow.The sunset was beautiful, and the small courtyard was very comfortable.Jane's stomach was round from eating, and she let out a satisfied burp.It was perfect.Meanwhile, at the hotel.Ross glanced at the dining table. Not a single bite of food had been touched.Since arriving at the hotel room, Zachary had taken a cold shower and then sat by the window smoking.He never expected Zachary, someone who was so talented, to stumble when it came to love.Though Roy was currently keeping an eye on Michael's place, he didn't dare report anything.Ross, hiding in the shadowy corner, also made sure not to breathe too loudly.Finally, Zachary spoke up. "Has he arriv

    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."
