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

Charlotte thought the term was good. “What’s wrong with that? Clothes aren’t just for celebrities, right?”Jane hugged her. “You set your standards too high, but I understand. Still, with the designs you’ve produced, they’re already perfect. And we can do nationwide customization, but we have to release the celebrity collection first. After seeing the results, we can make adjustments and mass-produce, right? You also said that some of the colors you’ve created aren’t suitable for everyone. We have to make mistakes first, don’t we?”Charlotte had indeed hit a bottleneck.That was why she was thinking of combining intangible cultural heritage with national trends to innovate a new series.Otherwise, with so many clothing brands on the market, without innovation, they would be eliminated sooner or later.But innovation was also a troubling thing.You couldn’t overdo it and kill the market.“I think dopamine is fine. Many dopamine style clothes make people happy right now.”Jane po

Charlotte was confused. “Although Westley assigned Dominic to this project, does Dominic really have that much authority?”Dominic spoke up. “No, Mrs. Smith. The Intangible Cultural Heritage National Trend Festival is supported by the Howard family, but we’re the organizer. Also, bringing you here has nothing to do with the Howard family. This is my own network. I’ve been in this industry for so many years, and it wasn’t for nothing. Don’t worry. We’ll definitely make it to the last day of the event.”Jane also said, “Don’t worry, Charlotte. Dominic is really good at handling things.”She gave a thumbs-up.Charlotte wasn’t very familiar with Dominic, but they were getting to know each other better now.“By the way, don’t forget about the photoshoot,” Dominic said to Jane.This was something Jane was still a bit worried about.“Do you know any other photographers?”Dominic looked puzzled. “What’s wrong? Did Jordan’s schedule clash?”“No...”It wasn’t that.If she showed up th

Jane really liked the little restaurant, and Charlotte wasn’t that particular either.But they both needed to report to their families first.Dominic teased Jane. “Didn’t expect you to be in such a situation before.”After sending the message, Jane said, “You’ll be in the same position sooner or later. But if your gold-digger ex comes back after seeing you’ve made a fortune, promise me, don’t get back together with her.”Dominic rolled his eyes. “Am I really that cheap?”“Aren’t you?”Charlotte smiled and pursed her lips.The two of them were really a funny pair.On the other side, Zachary hid on the small balcony, the tip of his cigarette glowing in the dark.Frank brought two glasses of alcohol, placing one in front of him.“I went to Sharaston. Luthor’s marriage to the eldest daughter of the Joseph family is confirmed.”Zachary flicked the ash from his cigarette. “The eldest daughter is willing to marry him?”Frank flashed a meaningful smile. “They said it’ll be the elde

The girl hooked her arm around Tom’s, looking up at him with innocent, wide eyes. “Tom, is this your wife?”“Don’t disgust me.” Jane spoke before Tom could. “I’m just a concerned citizen.”The girl looked at Tom. “Do you know her?”Tom pulled his arm away. “I have something to do. You go back to school first.”The girl was unwilling, but when Tom’s expression turned cold, she glared at Jane with resentment and turned to leave.Her high heels seemed to hammer into the floor, showing just how angry she was.Jane felt innocent under the glare and regretted getting involved.“Jane...”“No matter what you say, I won’t listen. Please stay away from me. Don’t ruin my appetite.” Jane interrupted coldly.But Tom reached out and grabbed her arm.Jane immediately pulled away. “If you have a problem, go to the police. Try not to disgust me.”“I’m getting a divorce.” Tom pulled out a chair and sat next to Jane. “Jane, I’ve always had you in my heart.”Had her in his heart?He had just

Without saying a word, Zachary turned and led Jane away.Tom, didn’t seem to be afraid at all. He held his stomach and chased after them.“Jane!”Zachary didn’t slow his pace, and since Jane was being pulled along by him, she couldn’t stop either.Tom jogged a couple of steps and blocked their way.When he saw Zachary, he froze.Then his gaze dropped and landed on Zachary’s arm around Jane’s waist.“Your boyfriend is... Mr. Collins?”Jane stood on tiptoe and kissed Zachary’s cheek. “I’ve said it, my boyfriend is way better than you.”Tom’s face darkened. “How could he possibly...”Then he suddenly remembered that there were rumors in the circle that Zachary had someone he liked, but that person didn’t have a strong background and hadn’t been accepted by the Collins family.So he hadn’t paid much attention to it.After all, people in their circle were all like this. In the end, he had done an arranged marriage too.But he never expected it would be Jane.Zachary didn’t say

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."
