Chapter 839

Author: Lean
Jane had already made the donation at the church entrance.

But when she turned around, she didn’t see Charlotte.

Jason came over and said, "She took the child to the restroom."

Jane nodded and decided to wait at the entrance.

Suddenly, a nun came to give her a flower.

She thought it was some sort of blessing from the church and accepted it.

However, Michael felt something was off, especially when, not long after, another nun came with another flower.

One after another, the roses in Jane's hands kept multiplying, and soon, she had a huge bouquet.

"Wait a moment." Michael stopped a little nun and asked him, using the local accent, what was going on.

The nun replied, "I don't know. The father asked us to bring flowers to this sister."

Another little nun, who could speak Cherian, chimed in, "A benefactor uncle donated a huge amount of incense money, so the master asked us to help him fulfill a wish."

Jane immediately felt something was wrong and quickly tri

    Zachary stepped out from behind, and immediately, the little nuns scattered. Jane looked at his smiling face and wanted to slap him. But the presence of the Jesus statue restrained her. "You..." She was about to speak when he covered her mouth. "No foul language in front of Jesus." Jane glared at him and slapped his hand away. Then, she watched as he knelt down on one knee. He opened a small square box and presented it to her. "Jane, I'm proposing to you in front of Jesus. My sincerity is as clear as the heavens. Don't worry about my family or any trouble that we may come across in the future. I've also sincerely asked for Jesus's blessing. He will guide us. Jane, please marry me." Jane suddenly understood. It wasn’t that Zachary didn’t understand what she said. He simply didn't want to do things her way. Instead, he deliberately twisted her words and followed his own will, and did whatever he liked. "I won't marry you." Jane had come here to pray

    The power that Zachary had were something Michael could never obtain no matter how hard he worked in this lifetime. This kind of disparity, when mentioned again and again, was like an slap in the face. But even so, he still had to help Jane. "You don't understand her at all. You don't understand why she doesn't want someone like you, someone with money and power, but instead chooses to be with me, a younger man who's already plotted against her and has nothing." Zachary really didn't understand, and upon hearing this, he furrowed his brows. But he also didn't want to feel embarrassed in front of his rival. "She will eventually be my legitimate wife." "She won’t be happy," said Michael. Zachary replied, "You are not her, she will be happy." "You are not her, how do you know she will be happy?" Zachary didn't want to get tangled up in this childlike argument. "Don't think that because your grandmother's life is coming to an end, there's nothing left to th

    "You weren’t dating normally from the beginning. Michael, I’m only telling you this because I see you as a friend. Stop wasting time on Jane. Spend time with your grandmother in her final days, and focus on building your career. The future will bring you the happiness that belongs to you." Michael forced a smile, but it was bitter. "Charlotte, I'll remember what you said. We should go now. Frank's eyes are about to kill me." Charlotte said, "You’ve set her up, she used you, and now you're even. Neither of you owes the other anything. I left some money under the pillow in the guest room. Thanking Madam Hall for cooking for us. Even though we only stayed for one night, we still disturbed her. Michael, I wish you all the best." A deep bitterness and pain spread through Michael's heart, but he still showed a perfect smile. "Charlotte, you too. And Jane, I wish you all the best." "Alright." Michael watched as the luxury cars drove away. He opened his palm and stared

    They didn't take the main road to the Civil Affairs Bureau. But even on a small road, it shouldn't have been this desolate. It was clear that these people had been waiting for him for a long time. It seemed that the news about him and Jane going to get the marriage certificate must have reached the Collins family the moment they boarded the plane. Zachary's indifferent gaze moved up, briefly landing on the middle-aged man's face. Then he raised the car window. The middle-aged man raised his hand and signaled for the armored vehicles to move aside. Roy drove past. Originally, he should have turned left toward the Civil Affairs Bureau, but he turned the steering wheel to the right. Jane had heard everything, and now she still felt a lingering fear. "Zachary." Zachary turned his head and said, "You don't have a chance to run anymore." Since the temple, Jane had been angry. Now that she was no longer in a temple, she couldn't hold it back any longer. But

    Her fingers had turned red, and they were slightly swollen, but the ring still couldn't be removed. Zachary once again held her hand, gently rubbing her middle finger to ease the pain. Jane looked coldly at him. There was no emotional reaction to his careful and considerate gestures. This was not what she wanted. No matter how well he acted, it couldn't hide the domineering arrogance in him. He said he would let her be free, but in reality, he had already tied her down without her realizing it. He had confined her in a cage. She wanted to vent her anger. But then she felt it wasn't necessary anymore. He would just respond with a few words that would make her at a loss for words anyway. She couldn't even be bothered to shake off his hand. The rest of the journey was in silence. This made Roy, in the driver's seat, feel a sense of unease. This suffocating silence was worse than an argument. Perhaps if they argued it would be better. The wor

    Jane felt like her wrist was about to be crushed, and tried to pull it out. "Let go, it hurts." But Zachary pulled her closer, holding her tightly in his arms. "Don't think these words of yours will work. They can't control me." His voice was cold and hard, clearly filled with anger. But Jane didn't care. She kept provoking him. "If you were really that capable, you wouldn't have been brought here today. We would already be at the Civil Affair Bureau getting the paperwork done. Zachary, you know it yourself. You're not powerful enough to beat the Collins family." Zachary's voice grew even colder. "I'm doing this for you." "I don't want you to." Jane struggled to get out of his embrace, but when that failed, she stomped on his foot. But Zachary didn't even flinch. Jane's voice turned cold as well. "Stop always saying you're doing things for me. Your family does the same for you, so why don't you accept it? Why do you have to go against them? Sometimes, I ju

    Zachary rebutted, "How can I not care? If it weren't for your relationship with Michael's grandmother, I wouldn't have kept her around waiting to match the statements with Michael. Even legally, without matching statements, we can't file a case or convict anyone." Nina was not surprised. She knew Zachary's style very well. But it didn't matter anymore. At that point, there was nothing she could do, but wait for the right moment to escape the country. As long as Zachary didn't send her to prison or kill her, there was always a chance. "Miss Greenwood, even if you don't like Zachary and want to break up with him, please don't use me as a shield. We're both women, can't we be a bit more friendly?" Jane snorted coldly. "When you were setting me up, did you ever think about being 'friendly' to me as a woman?" She replied, "Michael already told me, your little act is completely unnecessary now." Zachary chimed in, "If you don't want to see her, fine. Let Michael come

    Jane didn't let out a breath of relief until she passed through the gates of the house. She wiped the cold sweat that had gathered on the tip of her nose. Quickly, she walked toward the main road. She had heard about the power and influence of Zachary's family, and had imagined it in her mind, but seeing it in person was far more shocking than she had anticipated. At that point, she even felt that breaking up with him was the right decision. She was glad she had done it quickly. If she had stayed in a relationship with Zachary any longer, the Collins family would definitely have come for her. Beep— The honking sound startled Jane. Seeing the driver, Alan, her erratic heartbeat gradually settled. "Are you here for business?" "No, I'm here to pick you up." Jane sat in the passenger seat, fastening her seatbelt and asking, "Did Mr. Smith send you?" Alan nodded. "Miss Greenwood, it's not safe to stay at your place right now. Please pack your things. I

    Jordan's face turned red with anger, and she yelled, "You're sneaky and cunning. You’re just a scumbag!"Westley bent down to pick up the door handle and handed it to her."How did a perfectly fine door break in your hands? Instead of cursing, shouldn't you reflect on yourself?"Suddenly, Jordan wasn't angry anymore.In fact, she even laughed.Because she was truly speechless."Westley, you're making me feel that having feelings for you back then was the stupidest thing I’ve ever done. I was really stupid, actually feeling sad and upset for someone like you, who is full of lies and has a scheming heart. You don't deserve it. Westley, you... don't... deserve it."Westley hadn't expected this outcome.It had been a good opportunity, and he really wanted to sit down and have a proper conversation with her.But what happened last night was beyond his expectations.He hadn't predicted today's situation either."I didn't mean it like that... let me explain..."Jordan interrupted

    She wasn't used to calling someone for every little thing."It's fine, I just need a sip of water.""You have a 39-degree fever, so please rest more. If the fever doesn't go down, it could turn into pneumonia, like Mr. Howard."Cough cough...Jordan choked on the water. She vaguely remembered that outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, Westley had walked toward her and seemed to have picked her up.But there were so many people around him. Could he really get soaked in the rain?How did she get this high fever?It couldn't be that she fainted, and just by him picking her up, he caught the illness, right?Westley met her confused gaze and began to explain, "You were soaked through. I carried you all the way to the hospital, and I got wet too."‘So?’"I was so focused on getting you treated, I forgot about myself. I thought I was fine, but it turns out I'm worse off than you."Jordan knew that Westley rarely fell ill.She had envied his constitution when they were kids. Unlike her

    Jane happily sent the couple into the elevator.She returned home and picked up the clothes that were scattered on the floor.As she was about to pick up a piece, a fine hand took it from her.She was helped to sit down on the sofa.Jane found it amusing. "Didn't my check-up results show no issues? It's just hanging clothes, it's not like I can't do it."She felt like she was disabled being taken care of like this by Zachary."And you, you've taken over the family business now, aren't you busy? Stop circling around me all day."Zachary hung the clothes on the hanger and placed them in the study first.Hearing her words, his lips pressed down slightly."Are you getting tired of me?"‘No wonder he’s good friends with Frank,’ thought Jane.Jane had just heard Charlotte complain that every time she did something, even if she was away for a short while, Frank would make it seem as if she was getting tired of him."Staring at the same person all the time, it's bound to happen."

    Due to Westley's special permission, their news was all over Nelana recently.Jordan was caught in the rain, Westley carried her to the hospital, and they even took a dramatic photo, which has been going viral all over the internet these past few days."With the beginning and end cut out, the clueless audience has been going crazy over this."Westley controlled the message he wanted to send out to the public.As for why Jordan was standing in the rain at the Civil Affairs Bureau, no one would know.To the public, they were the picture-perfect wealthy couple with a great relationship."My connections are getting better,"Dominic joked. "I found out it's nothing serious, just an acute cold from getting soaked in the rain. She's at the Greyson family's hospital, and even Carter, a big shot, was called to check on her. There’s definitely nothing to worry about."Jane let out a sigh of relief. "That's good, please keep an eye on her for me.""Don't worry. Just take care of yourself,"

    Westley looked at Jordan on the hospital bed, her lips pale, and didn't say anything.His gaze was deep, and it was unclear what he was thinking.Leanne, seeing his hair still dripping wet, went to grab a towel to help him dry it.Westley raised his hand to push her away.Leanne laughed. "So what, you're planning to stay here be sick with her?"Westley remained silent.Leanne was used to it.As the eldest son of the Howard family, bearing a heavy responsibility, he had matured earlier than other kids his age. His thoughts were so deep that they were impossible to fathom.When he was in a good mood, he would talk a little more.When he was in a bad mood, he couldn't even spare a glance."Westley, the one at fault here is you. Forgive me for speaking frankly, but the way you're handling this will only make Jordan more frustrated and push her even further away from you. You know best yourself—everyone who lied would be punished severely by you. You've deceived Jordan again and a

    "Tell Westley that if I don't see him at the Civil Affairs Bureau today, I'll file for divorce. If his work gets affected or he gets embarrassed because of it, he'd better not blame me."Buck's phone was on speaker, so there was no need to relay the message—Westley heard everything clearly.Caught in the middle, Buck felt like a sandwich. Not an enviable position."Mrs. Howard, you must be very busy. Don't waste time waiting outside the Civil Affairs Bureau. Once Mr. Howard finishes his work, he'll contact you.""Contact my ass!" Jordan swore, her frustration spilling over. "That scumbag is full of tricks! Let's see how long you can hide for! I'll wait until five o'clock when the Civil Affairs Bureau closes. If I don't see you, get ready for me to file for divorce!"Beep beep beep!She hung up the phone.Buck hesitated before carefully speaking. "Sir, Mrs. Howard seems to know you were listening.""Yeah."Westley's lips curved into a faint smile. "She's gotten smarter."Buck

    "They've gone through so much and still haven't reconciled!"The captain didn't even open his eyes and said, "Go run 10km."Jordan thought she wouldn't be able to sleep after everything that happened.But in the end, she drifted off in a daze.In her hazy state, it seemed as if something brushed against the corner of her eye, wiping away her tears.The next morning, when she woke up, the room was completely empty, leaving only her.She immediately went out to look for Westley.There was no sign of Buck, who was always by his side.She grabbed someone nearby and asked, "Where's Westley?"The subordinate replied, "Mr. Howard left last night. I'm not sure about his specific itinerary. Please understand, Mrs. Howard."Westley's schedule was always kept confidential.It was only known when he actually appeared at an event.The only one who might know was Buck.But she couldn't get in touch with him either.Just as she was about to call Westley, another call came in.Seeing th

    Her lips were suddenly covered by his cool ones.She widened her eyes in shock.Using all her strength, she pushed him away."What are you doing?""Isn't this what you said? We’re even, aren’t we?"Westley replied unhurriedly, "You kissed me just now, and now I've kissed you. That makes us even."‘What?’Jordan was at a loss for words to describe her feelings at that moment.So, when her slap landed on Westley's face, she didn't even realize what she had done.The man's face tilted slightly from the impact.Even Westley hadn't expected it. He was momentarily stunned, then pressed his tongue against his left cheek.His face showed no particular emotion, but the faint trace of amusement in his eyes hadn't completely faded.Seeing this, Jordan felt a chill run down her spine.It would have been better if he hadn't smiled."Well, uh... it's because you started it... I didn't mean to... If you hadn't gone too far, I wouldn't have hit you..."After she stammered her explanatio

    "Yeah."Westley didn't put any distance between them, lazily replying, "You bought all of it. I don't even know where to buy it."If Westley wanted something, there were plenty of people who would go to great lengths to get it for him.It was just an ordinary body wash. Finding out where to buy it would have been a trivial matter.Jordan's attention shouldn't have been on the body wash. It should have been on the fact that he had just stepped out of the shower, wearing nothing but a bath towel.But instead, she was entirely drawn into the topic."Then I'll buy you a new one. Don't use the one that has expired—what if you have an allergic reaction?""Okay."Jordan immediately took out her phone and placed an order.After she finished, she even showed him the confirmation."It'll arrive in a few days. Use something else in the meantime."Westley stared at her silently for a few seconds before speaking."Jordy, I'm sorry."That one apology was enough to make Jordan come back
