"Don’t mention it, I know what you need."Westley saw that he didn’t respond, but didn’t mind. He turned to Jane and said, "Jane, feel free to handle this however you like. As long as it’s done well, I have no particular demands. But there are a few points to note, and I’ll have my secretary send them to you later."Jane bowed slightly. "Thank you for your trust."Westley still had to greet others. He turned to Zachary and said, "You take Jane and get something to eat. Later, we’ll go upstairs to play cards.""Have your friend stay and join us for a bit. Some of the people here might collaborate with you later, so it’s good to get to know them."Dominic was so excited that he couldn’t even speak. It was Jane who thanked Westley on his behalf.After Westley left, Jane patted Dominic on the back."Dominic, don’t chicken out! I don’t know much about intangible cultural heritage national trends, you should take the lead and talk about your strengths."Dominic scratched his head. "J

Jane couldn’t be bothered to respond to him. She pushed him aside and went over to Dominic to chat.Zachary had intended to go over, but Westley called him over instead. He had his secretary go over to Jane to have her sign a few documents.Westley clinked his glass against Zachary’s."You're quick-witted, aren't you? You knew to find me as your fiancee's shield. Aren’t you afraid your family will find out and get furious?"Zachary looked in Jane's direction, his gaze gentle yet firm."My only wish right now is to marry her."Westley had known Zachary for many years and had never seen him care about anything so much, especially to the point of going to such lengths.His expression darkened slightly. "You now have a weakness."Zachary replied indifferently, "She’s not my weakness."A weakness could be used against you by your enemies, manipulated, threatened, and become something that shackles you forever.He didn’t like that. He didn’t want Jane to ever be in danger."She is

She asked, "You said before that we should eliminate the root cause—there must be a way, right?"Eric sighed at her words."That was before. Westley can easily find a business partner. Jane isn’t the only person in the world who can take care of the business. Even if we do something behind his back, Westley won't openly confront us.""Yes, he would. If I’m not mistaken, he owes Zachary a favor."Rebecca was taken aback. "When? Why didn’t I know about this?"Eric raised a hand and patted her shoulder. "Calm down a little. I’m a bit hazy on the details myself. It’s not entirely clear.""It seems like Westley’s wife once went on an animal photography shoot in some remote wilderness and ran into some criminals. At the time, Zachary was in training and happened to be there."Rebecca thought back to the timeline of Zachary’s training. "Wasn’t his wife still a student back then? And at that time, she wasn’t even his wife.""But she is now." Eric gently pushed her to sit on the edge of

Jane’s attention was immediately piqued. Earlier, when Zachary had introduced Westley to her downstairs, her shock had been rooted in the fact that he was Jordan’s husband, a man ten years older. She hadn’t expected to meet him so soon.Her curiosity about their relationship, especially considering the "marriage first, love later" and their seemingly endless entanglement, was growing by the second. She couldn’t wait to hear the full story. But just as she was about to ask, the door to the private room suddenly opened.A familiar face stormed in, fuming. Without a word, she grabbed a glass of wine from the table and splashed it across Westley’s face.“You’re despicable!”Westley, a man in his 30s who had climbed to the top of the Howard family, was known for his ruthless methods and deep scheming. The authority he exuded was palpable, and everyone in the room, even the most powerful, dared not make eye contact with him, let alone throw a drink in his face.Yet Westley didn’t show a

Zachary glanced at him coldly. ‘He’s always fooling kids around.’He thought back to how Westley had disappeared for so many years, without a word or care. Now, the woman was divorcing him, and it was his own fault.Jordan wasn’t the little girl she used to be, easily fooled by a few words from Westley.“She’s familiar with Zachary. They’re already a couple, no need for me to accompany her.”A scheming look flashed in Westley’s eyes.“This collaboration requires some promotional photos. Since you’re so familiar with her, you’ll be able to work together more smoothly. You should stay and help her out—she’s not familiar with the area.”Jane was about to speak, but Zachary pressed his hand over her mouth.She cocked her brows, silently accusing him of collusion.Zachary sighed.“You don’t lack photo shoots.”Jordan seemed a little convinced, but she wasn’t about to just go along with whatever Westley suggested.“No one takes better photos than you.”‘Flattering, with a touch o

Jane slapped his hand away."Focus on the cards that you’re playing," she said.She turned around and told to her friends to start.Leanne handed her a lollipop and whispered, "This is the first time I've seen Zachary like this. He used to look at no one and was cold as ice. Now he's like this."Jordan agreed softly, "When he saved me back then, he looked down at me and coldly said, 'Fool'. After that, he never said anything to me again. Whatever I said, all I got was a simple nod."Jane had also seen Zachary during his cold period. Hearing this, she chuckled."You're exaggerating. Didn't he just talk to you a moment ago? That was only because of Jane.""Westley doesn't have that much influence. When he saved me, he didn't even know I was Westley's wife. After he found out, he went to Westley to ask for a favor. I can still remember the scheming look in his eyes. But I was pretty happy. Not many people can set Westley up."They were right next to the men, and it wasn’t hard to

Jordan was unhappy. "This has nothing to do with you.""We're not divorced yet.""We're about to be."Jordan tried to grab her phone, but Westley held it out of her reach.She pressed her whole body against his.Jane sneered.Men’s tricks—he could fool young girls, but she saw right through it.She tried to say something, but her mouth was firmly covered by Zachary.She had forgotten.There was someone here who was in on the trick.Westley locked his arm around Jordan's waist, his eyes darkening slightly."You owe me money now. Until you repay it, you can’t get a divorce."Jordan immediately became infuriated. She stomped hard on his foot and ground it back and forth."I can pay you back right now. You can go with me to get the divorce certificate."Westley was like a big bad wolf luring a little rabbit into his den."Jordan, I’m the creditor. How and when you repay, it’s up to me to decide."Clap, clap, clap—Jane couldn’t hold back and started clapping.But Westley

"Even if I have feelings for him, I still wouldn’t marry him.""His dad could easily destroy me if he wanted to."Charlotte had always known that Jane still had feelings for Zachary.The reason she had given up initially was because of Nina and Zachary’s indecision.Later, Zachary’s grandmother’s words had truly frightened her.She wanted to break up, and the main reason was to see if she could love Zachary enough to go against the whole world.But after visiting the Collins family, all that was left in her was fear.Someone who had always had to rely on herself since she was young was naturally someone who valued her own life."I only found out about Zachary’s trip to Nelana the night after the birthday party. But you had booked your trip to Nelana a long time ago. I’m not sure if it was because Zachary got the news and went, or if his trip to Nelana was already part of his work arrangement. I didn’t tell you earlier because I didn’t think it would be so easy to run into him i

Westley thought back to the times before their marriage.From the moment Jordan came to the Howard family, he was the one who brought her milk every night.He took care of her meticulously in every aspect of her life—planting pear trees, picking pears, standing up for her.He even accompanied her in the childish games of playing house, which he used to disdain.He thought that Jordan had fallen for him because of these things.But these were things that anyone could have done.If someone else had become her older brother, they could have done the same.So he believed that Jordan was too young to truly understand what love meant.Yet, he never expected that she truly understood her feelings—that her love for him was not because of his care, not because he was her "brother."It was because she saw him as a man.And because of that, she now hated him to the extreme.Because she had once loved him to the extreme."Jordy, if I let you tie me up this time, can it erase my mistake

Before Jordan could react, Westley said, "Hurry, take a picture."She looked toward the water. Gentle ripples spread outward, shimmering under the light. Overjoyed, she quickly adjusted her camera and began shooting.Under the blue sky and white clouds, a pink dolphin swam playfully in the golden sunlight.This area was completely quiet—just the two of them.She could even hear the dolphin’s ethereal calls, soothing and pure.Just moments ago, she had been upset with Westley, but now, all of that frustration faded away.Her lips curved into a smile as the camera shutter clicked repeatedly—she didn’t want to miss a single frame.Pink dolphins were incredibly rare.Back when they had tried to photograph rainbow fish, they had also hoped to capture pink dolphins.But Oliver had almost died, and they had to abandon the shoot.Afterward, life had been too busy, and she never had another chance to come back.This time, though she had been brought here against her will by Westley,

"How lucky? If I catch one, will you stop pestering me for good?"Westley replied calmly, "You can try."Jordan didn’t know how to fish. When she cast the line, it got tangled.After struggling to get the hook in the water, she suddenly heard Westley chuckle beside her.It was a mocking laugh.It was only then that she realized—she hadn’t put any bait on the hook."You did that on purpose!" Jordan couldn’t hold back. "You knew I didn’t know how, so you set me up with this trick!"Westley neither confirmed nor denied it.Frustrated, Jordan reeled the hook back, properly put on some bait, and lowered it into the water again.Westley pulled a chair over and placed it behind her. "Have a seat. Take your time. There’s no rush."Jordan shot him a glare.Westley didn’t mind and walked away to make a phone call.Jordan sat there, waiting all the way until noon, as the sun rose high in the sky.She never even saw a rainbow fish.She was convinced Westley was messing with her."Ti

Later, he didn’t know why Westley was so determined to be with Jordan.Even now, he still didn’t understand.He had long known that Jordan’s mother’s heirloom would be auctioned, and he had put in a great deal of effort to prepare for it in advance.Before Nathan appeared, they had already known about Jordan’s background.Knowing that she and Jane were biological sisters, they began investigating.Zachary intervened to mislead the information, trying to prevent them from finding out.They simply went along with it, pretending they couldn't find anything.Westley’s attitude toward Nathan was the same—he knew he had made a mistake, and even being polite wouldn’t help anymore.This time, because of the heirloom, he had offended the entire country.The heirloom had never been put up for auction before, great effort had been made to orchestrate things so Jordan would receive them.Back then, Leanne had been waiting at the door every day for Westley, trying to solve the obstacles s

It was always going to come to this, there had to be a resolution.If Westley didn't keep his word this time and unilaterally tore up the agreement, she would have to take other measures."Can I give my sister a video call?"As soon as she asked, Roy’s phone vibrated.He handed it to Jordan.Jordan took it and pressed the answer button.Jane's face appeared on the screen."Jane.""What's wrong? Did something happen to you?"Jane moved closer to the screen. "Why are your eyes so red?"Jordan was worked up and shocked.She cried very easily."I just went to the auction..." She explained everything again. "I wasn't hurt in any way. It’s just about that estate..."Jane asked her, "So, you think he never hurt you before?"Jordan used to think Westley had stepped over the line before, but after this period of time, she felt that Westley hadn’t actually done anything wrong.He didn’t love her, and he was forced to marry her—why would he show her any kindness?If he had been ni

She didn’t dare to move.It was Westley who came over, holding her hand and signing at the bottom of the document."No, no, no!"Jordan quickly shook off Westley’s hand, repeatedly refusing."I don’t want it!"Westley chuckled. "Don’t you like money?""You can stay in this estate if you want, or you can sell it. If you sell it, it should be 20 billion dollars."Jordan’s hand that was holding the pen trembled.Her eyes widened, and she could hardly believe what she had just heard."You, you, you..."Westley forcefully held her hand and signed her name.Buck wisely left the room."What else do you want?"Jordan couldn’t say a word, her whole body frozen in the action of signing.Westley sighed softly and reached out to pat her head."Forget it, no need to say anything."Jordan bit her lip, unable to find her voice.She actually wanted to say that she didn’t need anything else.After all, the estate was enough for her to spend for several lifetimes.But for some reason,

Rhianna blinked her beautiful purple eyes and said coquettishly, "Yes, Westley, are you going to increase the bid? If you don't, the jewelry Mrs. Howard wants will belong to me. But it’s a fair competition, don’t get mad, okay?"Westley curved his lips, a strong and obvious hint of sarcasm in his expression."I could give it to you..."Jordan suddenly looked up, almost thinking she had misheard.But then she realized, Westley was someone with a deep sense of revenge.It was likely that he wasn’t increasing the bid out of desire, but to set a trap for Rhianna.Sure enough, the next words she heard were his cold, indifferent tone."400 million and 200 thousand. It’s not that I look down on you. It is possible for you to come up with 200 thousand dollars, but where are you going to get the 400 million from? Will you sell your family’s castle, or pull all the investments out of your business?"Rhianna wasn’t foolish. She sensed something was wrong and tried to get Westley to raise

"I don't like it." Jordan threw the paddle she was holding at him and stood up, intending to leave.Out of sight, out of mind.Westley grabbed her arm. "This is your mother's heirloom. You really don't want it?""What?"Jordan's head was about to explode. There had been too many shocks tonight.She still didn’t even know who her mother was.And yet, Westley knew that this was her mother’s heirloom?"Stop making things up. I don’t like this..."Westley still didn’t plan to reveal her true identity.Nathan was intentionally playing this hidden identity game.He was playing along.Besides, whether Jordan was from the Jackson family or not didn’t matter to him.As long as she was his, that was all that mattered."You’ll regret not bidding. Really, are you sure you don’t want it?" he said with a cryptic tone, guiding her subtly.He had already said that Jordan could bid on anything she liked.Yet here she was, hesitating.Jordan stared at the pear blossom jewelry on the stag

Her hand, resting on her lap, slowly clenched into a fist.Westley admired the change in her expression, silently smirking.Rhianna watched the whole scene and asked Westley in a foreign language, "Why does it feel like your wife doesn’t want to talk to you? Westley, did you intentionally arrange someone to act with you to reject me?"Westley answered indifferently, "If it were acting, wouldn’t the person I arranged cooperate with me? I made her unhappy before we came here, so it's normal for her to give me the cold shoulder. I brought her here to apologize and make her happy."Jordan couldn’t understand what they were saying and didn’t care. She was looking at the auction booklet.She was drawn to a set of pear blossom jewelry displayed in the catalog.She didn’t know why, but it felt as if there was some kind of connection.If the set wasn’t too expensive, she might try to bid on it.Her entire fortune should be enough, right?Westley’s gaze shifted over and saw her thumb ge
