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

They were eager to see Zachary and hadn't had the chance to speak yet. "Was it Zachary who took Lexi away?" Frank nodded. "He said he would handle it personally, so it should be him handling it." "If the Sanchez family is inconvenient for you, I can take care of it." Just as Eric was about to speak, Mr. and Mrs. Sanchez arrived at the hospital room. They looked quite angry. "Eric, we've known each other for so many years. Even if we can't have a marriage alliance, don't harm my daughter." He unlocked his phone and handed it to Eric. Eric saw the image of Lexi tightly bound. He frowned. Zachary was still unconscious at this moment. Who sent this photo? Ross entered shortly after, answering his question. He heard Ross tell Frank. "The Winston family took her." The Winston family was the Collins family's greatest enemy. And the enemies who had nearly taken Jane's life in Heliafield were the most loyal followers of the Winston family. Thinking b

"She's originally from abroad, it's hard to catch her." Frank waved his hand and said to Zachary, "Take care of it. I'm going to have some fun for a while. Once you're better, you can handle the aftermath." Zachary nodded. After Frank left the hospital room, Zachary told everyone to go home. "I'm fine, just a stomach cramp. It's not serious." Rebecca held his hand, hesitant to speak. Zachary took the initiative and said, "Don't worry. I've already cleared things up with Jane. Even if we run into each other in the future, we won't greet each other. We'll be strangers from now on." Outside the hospital room, Jane withdrew her hand from the door, turning to speak to Charlotte. "No need to go in. He's fine." After getting in the car, Charlotte looked at her. "You should stay at Region Gardens for a while." "Once Zachary and Frank finish dealing with the Sanchez family, you can move back to your own place. The Sanchez family has deep roots, and I'm worried that if

‘Come on,’ Roy muttered to himself. ‘When have you ever cared for strangers? You don't even bother with people you know. You clearly care, yet your words are so harsh.’"Whether it's someone else or you, whether you're just passing by or whatever, the fact is, you saved me this time, and I should stay and take care of you."Zachary didn't even glance at her. He just curved the corner of his lips in a faint, mocking smile."You don't want to take advantage of this opportunity to rekindle our relationship, do you? Sorry, I don't do that."Roy wanted to sew Zachary's mouth shut.He was aloof when he needed to speak, yet chatty when he shouldn't.Jane didn't back down because of his words."Mr. Collins, you're overthinking things. I don't do such things either. I'm only taking care of you because you got hurt saving me."Zachary wanted to dismiss her, but then he heard her imply something. "Could it be that Mr. Collins is afraid that my charm might attract you again?"Jane stayed,

Jane really didn't want to leave him alone in the hospital, even though he had so many reliable people around him. "I still want to stay." Charlotte didn't say anything more. "Once he's discharged, I'll help you move." During this time, she had bought some things for the place. Jane nodded and smiled. "Okay." Between good friends, they knew what each other was thinking. They understood each other. Charlotte and Frank didn't stay long. They left the food for them and then left together. No matter what happened in the future, both of them instinctively wanted to give the couple some space. Zachary was staying in a VIP ward. After Roy delivered the toiletries, Zachary instructed him to bring in a bed. Jane said she was fine with sleeping on the sofa. Roy glanced at the large hospital bed that could comfortably fit two people. He said, "Mr. Collins, medical resources are tight. Let's make do with one bed for a few days." "Let's give the bed to those w

Jane couldn't sit on the bed, so she sat on the nearby chair.But the angle was a bit awkward, and before she realized it, she was half-lying on the bed.What she didn't know was that while she was engrossed in watching the movie, someone had been watching her the whole time.Her back stiffened a bit, so Jane stretched and turned her head to speak to the man.She realized he had already turned his back and lay down.She didn't disturb him, instead, she quietly pulled the blanket over him, carefully avoiding the burned areas.Then she went to lie down on the sofa and chatted with Charlotte for a bit.She also glanced at some New Year clothing designs.When sleepiness began to hit, she got up first to check on Zachary, making sure he was sleeping soundly.But just as she was about to turn around, she noticed something was wrong."Does it hurt?"Zachary didn't respond.Jane went to find a nurse to ask about pain relief methods.Then, she returned with some ointment, knelt beh

Rebecca stayed in place for a long time, her gaze heavy, before finally leaving.When she arrived home, Eric was just heading out. He asked, "Where did you go?"Rebecca explained about Zachary's injury, as well as the things he had said.Eric's face darkened. "Do you think Zachary hasn't truly given up on Jane?"Rebecca nodded. "That's the impression I got."She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Do you think we should..."Eric waved his hand. "Let's wait and see. No need to act yet."Rebecca was a bit worried. "He's about to go back to work soon. After the birthday, the position of power will be handed to him. By then, it might be too late."Eric replied, "Let's wait until after the New Year."Jane woke up and found herself in bed.She hurriedly checked on Zachary, but he was nowhere to be found in the bed.She got out of bed and saw Zachary coming out of the bathroom.He had changed out of the hospital gown and was now dressed in a neatly pressed shirt and trousers.Sh

He scratched his nose. ‘So pretentious.’ Jane returned to Region Gardens to pack her things and move back to her own little place. Charlotte noticed that she looked dispirited and asked, "Did Zachary bully you?" Jane shook her head. "It's my fault. Even though he took the hit for me, I feel bad and want to take care of him, but I forgot that it was me who insisted on breaking up. I said so many hurtful things, forcing him to stop bothering me. So, I should have done what you said and just paid for the medical expenses, no need to personally take care of him." Charlotte smiled. "Listening to you speak, you sound like you're full of resentment." Jane sighed. "Exes should be treated as though they're dead. He saved me, but I should treat him like a stranger, like a living saint, just pay the medical fees and offer compensation, not insist on taking care of him." "What if he's out on a blind date with some young lady? That would be a misunderstanding, which would be

"I laugh when I get emotional, that's all—no other reason. If I've offended anyone, I'll punish myself with three more glasses of wine."No one really believed Caleb was genuinely moved.It was obvious that under the surface of his smile, there was a trace of mockery.But no one said anything.After all, it wasn't their family's business—there was no need for him to empathize with them.Besides, Caleb really wasn't close to them. It was his first time sharing a meal at the same table.And with his status, even if he was Zachary's brother-in-law, Zachary wouldn't embarrass him publicly.Given the occasion, there was no reason to stir up conflict.Whitney furrowed her brows but still spoke up to offer an apology on Caleb's behalf.Jane quickly said, "We're family, there's no need to be so formal. Caleb was just moved—I understand."Whitney still wanted to say something, but suddenly a large, warm hand rested on her thigh.It moved back and forth slowly, radiating heat.She tu

So at that moment, Westley and Zachary shared a tacit understanding and aligned explanation."We didn't look into it. This matter was a private family issue, and given the situation at the time, it wasn't convenient for us to investigate."Those words, coming from Westley, sounded quite believable.After all, his relationship with Jordan had been very tense at the time.But for Zachary, that excuse wasn't really necessary.Jane looked at him without saying anything.Zachary held her hand and said, "We did get our marriage certificate back then, but I really didn't look into this matter. If you don't believe me, ask Nathan. If I had looked into it, there's no way he wouldn't have noticed."Nathan also felt guilty—revitalizing the Jackson family was his way of making up for the wrongs his father had committed.Later, his unwavering kindness toward them also stemmed from guilt, knowing they had suffered because of his father.Now, of course, he didn't want a joyful day like the w

Back then, the Jackson family's power and status were highly sought after.Initially, when the eldest daughter of the Jackson family married the eldest son of the Westford family, it was considered a perfect match by everyone—a well-matched marriage of equal social standing.The Westford family's business was booming back then.But later, it was the Westford family that resorted to unscrupulous methods for the sake of business."At that time, my uncle was kidnapped shortly after birth and grew up in an ordinary family. He was very pure and kind, not understanding the scheming and deceit of the business world. The Westford family intended to train him, but when it became clear he wasn't up to it, they gave up. But then he fell in love with your mother, and the Westford family thought there was still something to gain from it. As for grandpa, he didn't care about family background, he only looked at character and sincerity. My uncle was highly favored by him, and his relationship wit

Westley chuckled.Frank couldn't be bothered to make it complicated. He drank seven sips, and everyone else followed with a sip.Zachary did the same as Frank.However, he paused slightly when it came to Westley, offering them his blessings."Congratulations. And I hope you two will continue to be happy in the future."At that point, Westley couldn't just take a sip anymore.He downed the drink in one go."We've received your promise, my dear brother-in-law."Westley was rendered speechless.Caleb had been watching the show for a long time.Finally, it was his turn."Everyone, how much do you think I, a first-time guest, should drink?"Of course, the answer was to drink more.They all thought the same thing, though their expressions were different.But none of them spoke the truth aloud.Today was a special day for Jane and Zachary, and they were the ones in charge.It should have been them who spoke first.Zachary said, "This is my brother-in-law's first time in Jeswo

At noon, only Whitney admitted that Jane was her sister-in-law. Jane even gave her a little gift.As for Caleb, neither Jane or Zachary cared if he admitted it or not.They thought Whitney had married Caleb for the sake of business.But just now, the two of them were so intimate, unable to part with each other, and even had a visible kiss mark that couldn't be hidden by a turtleneck.Given this relationship, wasn't it reasonable for Caleb to admit that they were his brother-in-law and sister-in-law?However, Caleb didn't really know them well, and they didn't know his personality either. Naturally, he couldn't just say that he recognized them as his in-laws.As for Westley, everyone knew him well.Besides, Westley had married Jane's younger sister, so he should be recognizing them as well."That’s unnecessary, Mr. Hilton," said Zachary. "Jordan is Jane's sister, both of them are from the Jackson family, though they've been separated for years due to some unfortunate circumstanc

"Since Mr. Hilton spoils his wife so much, how about you drink this wine for Whitney instead?"Caleb curved his lips into a smile, picked up his glass, and said, "You’re not going to double the amount if I drink for her, right, Mrs. Smith?"Before Charlotte could speak, Frank intervened.He placed one hand on Charlotte's shoulder, gently swirled his wine glass with the other, his posture relaxed and casual."Since Mr. Hilton is so interested, how can I not satisfy your requests on my turf?"He even brought Zachary into it. "Today is your big day, it's your stage, so set an example by taking the first round."Zachary glanced at him indifferently. He was pretending to be drunk today, but Frank hadn’t gone easy on him.He had originally planned to use water for his drinks, but Frank had switched it back to real alcohol.Now, he was starting trouble again."Oh!" Frank suddenly seemed to remember something. "I forgot, Mr. Collins drank a lot at lunch. I guess the alcohol in his sto

No one had called for dinner yet.She knew that Zachary and Jane were getting married today, so they might be staying in the room for a while.Caleb and Whitney were the ones they thought would be spending time together.So, she first knocked on Charlotte's room.She figured that they wouldn't necessarily want to spend time together right now.But she was wrong.No one answered Charlotte's door.However, Jane sent her a message saying she would get up soon.Then Charlotte also spoke up in their group chat.That was when she came to call Whitney.She guessed that the two should have finished their intimate act by now...Whitney, ignoring the discomfort in her body, used both hands and feet to escape from Caleb's embrace.She first responded to Jordan at the door and then rushed into the bathroom.Caleb came in shortly after.When his bare back pressed against her, Whitney was startled. "Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"Caleb held her and chuckled. "Honey, have you eve

Westley patted her on the head. "You're asking me about this because you want to help Mandy, or..."Mandy and Jordan hadn't been in touch much over the past few years, but before university, they had a pretty good relationship.When Mandy ran into trouble and went to the north, Jordan was furious.It took him several days to calm her down.But then, unexpectedly, his relationship with her had also fallen apart.Looking back now, he wondered if it was because Carter always treated him and maintained his health, but in doing so, perhaps he had also pushed the love out of his own life.Jordan shook her head. "I won’t interfere with other people’s relationships. I'm just asking out of curiosity."Westley didn't expect that but still told her about the situation."Caleb did indeed relent. He will give Carter a chance to meet with Mandy. And this was something, Zachary, Frank, and I, were all aware of but haven't spoken about it openly. Zachary is pretending to be drunk."Jordan had

Caleb and Zachary had a drink and then left with Whitney.Carter didn't even have time to drink with Zachary and hurriedly followed them.At that moment, Zachary's and the others were here to watch the show.But they didn't expect, when they turned the corner, to see Caleb pinning Whitney against the wall, kissing her.The man's brows and eyes were full of flirtatious charm, and he blocked Whitney's profile, glancing over.He asked, "What's wrong? Haven't you seen a married couple kiss?"There was no sign of Carter anywhere.They didn't want to interrupt the couple's private moment, so Westley and Frank escorted Zachary to his room, then went back to their own rooms with their wives.Jane pretended to wipe Zachary's face and was about to leave.But Zachary grabbed her and pulled her into the bed."Mr. Collins, you're getting more and more skilled at pretending to be drunk."Zachary opened his eyes and kissed her forehead.His hoarse voice carried a hint of weakness."Honey
