Chapter 902

Author: Lean
Zachary's eyes immediately darkened.

"What's wrong?" Jane asked when she saw the change in his expression.

Zachary put away his phone and shook his head. "Let’s get you home first."

At that moment, Charlotte's call came through.

Jane answered it.

As soon as they met, Charlotte asked anxiously, "What happened? Why did you make an emergency call?"

Jane took her hand and explained, "Don’t worry. It was a misunderstanding. Zachary has already sorted it out."

When they reached the car, Zachary didn’t get in. He instructed Ross to make sure the two of them were safely sent off.

Jane let Charlotte get in first, then looked at Zachary without saying anything.

Zachary reached out, scratching the space between his eyebrows with his index finger. Finally, he decided to tell her the truth.

"Luthor Winston has arrived."

The name "Luthor Winston" sounded familiar to Jane, but she couldn’t place it right away.

However, she had heard of the surname "Winston."

"The Winston family?"

    "I still stand by my previous statement. No matter what decision you make, I’ll support you. If you need help or someone to rely on, I’m here for you."Jane took a while to process this. "So, what you're saying is that the Winston family actually wants the Collins family to be the figurehead, and Zachary used that point to create a protective circle around me?"Charlotte nodded.Jane scratched her head. "So, the Winston family is making a move because they’ve seen Zachary’s abilities and are starting to plan and prepare?"Charlotte nodded again.Jane sighed. "What can I do about it?""Just take care of yourself.""What good will that do him?"Charlotte smiled. "Taking of yourself is the most important thing. You have to be vigilant."Jane pouted. "I’m not that foolish."She sighed again. "This is the path I chose and there’s no turning back."Charlotte tilted her head. "This sounds like you want to be with him for the rest of your life.""What else can I do? I can’t shake h

    Frank leaned back in his chair, his hand resting behind Charlotte. He said lazily, "We’re a married couple. You two should be more mindful of your public image."Zachary retorted, "Stop showing off."Frank shot back, "Only married people are qualified to talk to me like that.""Enough," Jane and Charlotte spoke simultaneously, "We’re all the same. No one should say anything about anyone."Frank wasn’t someone who would easily keep quiet."Don’t forget, you owe me a favor. Watch your words, or I might ask you to do something. Don’t say I didn’t warn you."He had already gotten ahead of Zachary in terms of love, marriage, and children.And considering Sparrow’s personality, if Zachary had a son and formed a family tie, he’d lose again.At that moment, he honestly had nothing to compare with.Zachary wasn’t pleased and spoke, "Fine."Frank was satisfied. "Tonight, you’re treating. I’ll see what I feel like eating. Oh, maybe something that help you last longer in bed."Charlotte

    The two men were both tall, but in the dense crowd, they couldn’t find the person they were looking for."What's the point of showing off a stupid mask? Now look what happened."Zachary's lips pressed into a straight line, and his gaze turned cold.He didn’t respond to Frank’s jibe. He had been confident before, thinking Luthor’s arrival was no big deal. But now, with no sign of her, he felt an overwhelming sense of panic.He couldn’t make a scene either.He hadn’t felt so suffocated in over thirty years.He was nervous, anxious, and utterly at a loss."You can't search like this. Clear the area first, get Westley to do it."Frank’s words calmed Zachary’s nerves a little. He immediately called Westley.Just as the call was answered, he felt a tap on his back.He turned around, and there, in front of him, was the face he had been searching for.He immediately pulled her into his arms.Jane was stunned. "What’s wrong with you?"Charlotte was also tightly held by Frank, and s

    Zachary raised his head to look at her, his gaze sincere."If that day comes, I will.""But I don't want that."Jane flipped over and sat up, crossing her legs. Her posture suggested she was about to have a serious talk with him."Have you ever thought about it? If you were to risk your life for me, it would seem like you love me so much. But without you, how am I supposed to live the rest of my life?""You can't lose me, but does that mean I can lose you?"Zachary also sat up, crossing his legs just like her."You're right. But if I can't save you, wouldn't I be bearing the same pain?"This kind of hypothetical situation had no solution.What would happen in life was inherently unknown."Forget it. Let's just keep a calm mindset."Jane lay back in a starfish position, "The enemy is already in plain sight. While being on guard, we still need to live our own lives. Don’t worry about things that may never even happen."Zachary propped his head up, looking down at her."You j

    Because her waist also ached.She hadn't paid attention when she opened the door for the waiter and returned Dominic's call.Now, every time she walked, it was painful.The two women looked at each other, both feeling sore and stiff, and they smiled.Jane said, "I guess we’re on the same boat now."Charlotte nodded and sat down at the dining table."Next time, let’s cut down on the pranks. In the end, it’s always us who suffer."Jane quickly washed up and sat down as well.She nodded in agreement.She glanced at the dining table and saw that there were dishes not only she liked, but also some of Charlotte’s favorites.No wonder Charlotte had come to her room."When you woke up, was Frank there?"Charlotte shook her head. "Before you called, he sent a message telling me to come here after I wake up..""I didn’t see Zachary when I woke up either.""Luthor’s here. They must have been discussing countermeasures."Jane didn’t understand anything that they were doing. The only

    Zachary took a sip of tea, a faint smile on his lips, but it held a deeper meaning."Trying to pry information from me?"Westley was about to speak when his secretary came over and whispered a few words in his ear.His expression darkened slightly as he waved his hand.The secretary left, and Westley looked at the two men across from him, speaking slowly, "Luthor has gone to Dominic’s report meeting. Both of your wives are there."As soon as the words fell, the two men across from him immediately disappeared from sight.Westley wasn’t in a hurry. He leisurely sipped his tea for a while before standing up to head to the scene.Luthor’s arrival was unexpected to both Jane and Charlotte.Given his position, he didn’t need to attend such a meeting in person.Moreover, the Howard family was in charge here, so his presence wouldn’t change much.Dominic didn’t recognize Luthor, but one of Westley’s subordinates had whispered something to him.He was also informed that this person w

    The conference room suddenly felt much emptier.Dominic looked a little nervous. "Jane, should I continue?"Jane nodded. "Go ahead."Half an hour later, Dominic finished the rest of his presentation.Jane said, "Great job, Dominic. You did well. Just implement your plan as it is."As she finished speaking, her fingertip was pinched sharply.Jane turned and winked at him. "What’s the matter? Are you dissatisfied with your brother-in-law?"Zachary smiled. "Very.""Perfect timing, since everyone’s here. Let me treat him to a meal to thank him for taking care of you."Jane had originally planned to treat them all, so this worked out perfectly.The group headed to the best restaurant in Nelana.It wasn’t the one where Jane had run into Zachary and Annie last time, but a private kitchen."This place isn’t easy to book. Money isn’t enough. You have to know the owner."Dominic said to Jane, "Your fiance is really something."In the end, they still had to thank Westley.Zachary d

    "Have I stopped talking to you?"Jane’s words made Zachary want to laugh.Jane wrapped her arms around his neck. "Of course, it’s different with me than with anyone else. You usually don’t talk much outside."Zachary deliberately scoffed. "You get along so naturally and happily with Dominic. It seems he understands you quite well."Jane knew he was pretending to accept Dominic as her “brother-in-law,” but after all, Dominic wasn’t related to her by blood.So, of course, he was feeling a little jealous."After all, we’ve known each other for many years. Isn’t that how friends are?""He knows what you’d like. Even though he’s never been to the restaurant, he can still recommend the dishes that suit your taste. You seemed really happy tonight."Jane pinched his ear. "He’s local. Isn’t that the reason why he’s here tonight?""I know local specialties too. Why didn’t you ask me?"Hearing his slightly envious tone, Jane was both amused and helpless. "Alright, Mr. Collins. He’s a fr

    "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

    Jordan really wouldn’t be able to keep an eye on him. If she fell asleep and he left, she wouldn’t even know.By that time, who knows what excuse he would come up with.But staying in the same room together wasn’t appropriate given their current relationship.Westley spoke up, offering her a solution.“You can sleep on the sofa. Even if you fall asleep, you’ll notice if I make any moves.”That sounded like a good idea.Jordan immediately agreed.But if she had thought about it more carefully, she might have realized how unusual it was for Westley to suggest a woman sleep on the sofa.Even though they were about to divorce, they still had a bond from growing up together.If not as a husband, then as a “brother,” he shouldn’t let his “sister” sleep on the sofa.He only suggested it because he knew she would agree without hesitation.Westley handed her a blanket and, in an unhurried manner, loosened his cufflinks and tie.He casually asked, “Do you want to shower first?”Jord

    “Why?” asked Jane.“Because such an opportunity is rare,” replied Zachary.Westley indeed cherished the opportunity tonight.Regarding potential rivals, he had investigated a lot.Oliver was the only person who was a little close to Jordan.So tonight, he was confident he could remain emotionally stable and have a proper conversation with Jordan.But he hadn’t expected to encounter a problem as soon as they got off the plane.“Jordan!”Leanne, holding a large bouquet of sunflowers, immediately passed the flowers to Jordan upon seeing her.“If I hadn’t asked, I wouldn’t have been able to catch you. It’s been so long since we’ve gathered together.”“No matter what happens between you and my brother, we can’t cut off our relationship, right?”Jordan had always had a good relationship with the members of the Howard familyNo one treated her poorly or like an outsider.During her school years, any troublemakers had been dealt with by the Howard family.Especially Leanne, who h

    Zachary was rendered speechlessFrank teased him, "Family status."Zachary ignored him, as if Frank's family status was any higher."Dominic is keeping an eye on things over there, which is reassuring. The finished products have already been produced, and Jordan helped take some photos. The promotional effect has been good.""Dominic is reliable. It's just a pity I can't model for the later set of the clothes' promotions. Honestly, I really wanted to wear them, the patterns in the later designs are even more intricate."Charlotte glanced at her belly. "You're not showing yet, so you can wear them. I had Dominic send them over. I was in a rush to come back today because of Jordan and didn't bring them, but when the package arrives, you can wear them for the shoot."Jane sighed. "I wonder if the girl will still have time to help me take photos in a few days. I want her to take my maternity photos too.""Whether or not she gets divorced, if you ask her, she’ll definitely come. You

    “Let’s go back to the the Howard family’s residence.”“It’s too late, I don’t want to disturb them.”Jordan gritted her teeth. “Then let’s go to your house. It’s so big, we can each take a room and not disturb each other.”Westley calmly took a sip of tea. “It’s not very convenient.”Jordan’s temper flared. “Let’s just stay in a hotel!”Westley replied, “There are too many people watching me in Nelana. I don’t want to be misunderstood.”Jane and Charlotte exchanged a look.They both understood each other’s thoughts.Before, they had thought Westley was calculating and manipulative.He had always been clever at using tricks to handle Jordan.Now, they realized it wasn’t just that.This man had a thick skin—he could say anything without blinking.But they didn’t fully understand Westley’s intentions.He clearly had the chance to spend time alone with Jordan, perhaps to explain some things and clear the air.Yet he kept refusing.If he felt it was inconvenient, if he didn’t

    At that moment, someone under Westley came to report.“Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Howard flew to Jeswood. They’re likely going back to celebrate Mr. Collins and Mrs. Collins’ wedding.”Westley immediately booked a flight as well.When Jordan saw Jane, she started venting her frustrations.As she spoke, her voice gradually faded, and she apologized, “I’m sorry. It’s your big day, and here I am talking about this.”Jane poured her a cup of tea. “It’s alright, I understand. I invited you to celebrate, which is sudden of me, considering you’re in the middle of a divorce.”Jordan shook her head. “I could use the good vibes. Hopefully, it’ll help me get the divorce finalized smoothly.”Zachary and Frank exchanged glances, wisely choosing not to get involved in the conversation.What they didn’t expect was for Westley to show up at such a critical moment.He even handed Zachary a gift. “Congratulations.”Zachary instinctively looked at Jane and saw her smiling faintly. His scalp tingled wi

    Zachary had already planned for today.He didn’t take Westley’s words to heart.He assumed Frank would explain things to Charlotte.Who knew Charlotte actually accompanied Jordan to Nelana?“It’s not that, it’s just a coincidence.”Jane chatted with Charlotte and asked about Jordan’s situation.Charlotte said, “Westley didn’t show up, so the young girl is very angry right now. I’m taking her to get some photos taken.”“Then after you’re done, come back. How can I celebrate without you here?”Nelana and Jeswood weren’t far from each other. Charlotte checked the time and agreed.“If you’re hungry, just eat something first. Don’t keep waiting. Once I’m on the plane, I’ll let you know. You can roughly estimate the timing.”“Alright!”Jane hung up the phone and looped her arm around Zachary’s. “I want to eat a strawberry cake.”Zachary helped her into the car and instructed Ross to drive to a cake shop.He got out of the car himself to buy it.As Jane ate, she asked, “So if We
