Chapter 907

Author: Lean
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

    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

    ‘I’ve already taken my pants off and you’re just going to leave it at that?’She thought this must have been intentional on Westley's part.She raised her leg and kicked him, then turned around, pulling the blanket away, her back clearly showing a trace of resentment.Westley didn't mind, pulling both her and the blanket into his arms.He chuckled softly in her ear."Your reaction right now makes me think you're dissatisfied."The deliberate pause was even more teasing.Jordan immediately elbowed him.But because she was tangled in the blanket, she couldn't put much strength into it.The muffled laugh of the man in her ear clearly mocked her, making her even angrier.Her emotions flared up too quickly, and tears started falling.Westley felt the wetness on his arm, it was hot.He quickly sat up.He knew about her tendency to lose control of her tears, but seeing her cry still made his heart ache.He gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eye with his thumb and whis

    "You can't possibly have nowhere to stay."Westley turned her around and found her eyes tightly closed.He laughed softly. "You used to try everything to see what’s in front of you right now, so what's wrong now?"Jordan had been influenced by dramas and novels back then.Because she was protected by the Howard family and watched over by Westley, there were no other men around her except for him.Even if there were, she couldn't see their abs.So at that time, she could only secretly look when he was training or at moments when he would take off his clothes.Leanne had also helped her a lot.When she was young, he saved her when she was hospitalized.He injured his shoulder, and he had to take off his clothes to apply medicine.During those days, she insisted on taking care of him and saw a lot.But all of this ended before she turned 18.It was like playing house, no one took it seriously.Later, she never had the chance to see Westley’s body again.Now, she couldn't loo

    Westley's eyes flashed with a deep, meaningful smile.He replied calmly, "How did I trick you? I'm just being very sincere. I was just asking about the things from before. I didn't mean anything. If you're overthinking, then... Are you feeling guilty?"Jordan retorted immediately, "I'm not guilty!"Then, she weakly explained, "I didn't do anything wrong. My confession was real, and the words I said to your mom were for you. Later, I didn't contact you because your attitude toward me wasn't good. I didn't dare to reach out. So, it's all your fault."Westley laughed. "Alright, it's all my fault."He released her and stood up, heading toward the bathroom.Jordan stood frozen, not knowing why the conversation ended so abruptly.They didn't really reach any conclusion.But that wasn't the point. She followed him to the bathroom door and knocked."Westley, are you taking a shower?"There was no response. She pressed her ear to the door and thought she could hear water running.Alt

    "I..."Jordan leaned on his shoulder, her voice soft. "Can you just say it?""Okay."Westley was easy to talk to. "You said that after giving it some thought, you might have mistaken your feelings for me. You might have confused sibling love with romantic love. Actually, maybe you don't really like me. That was the gist of it. The exact words, it's been so long, I don't remember."Jordan didn't believe that he didn't remember.If he didn't hold a grudge, he wouldn't have treated her the way he did afterward.He didn't even send her a message.Even when the Howard family invited them back for dinner, he had his subordinates contact her."You really are petty."Westley chuckled, pulling her even closer.He kissed the corner of her lips. "Yep, I'm petty. For the things I owe you, I'll apologize and make it up to you, but for the things I've done right, I'll remember them and make you pay me back."Jordan quickly grabbed his wrist, her speech speeding up."Westley, I can explai

    Jordan was rendered speechless. "You didn't drink tonight. What, are you drunk from fruit juice?"Westley let go of her, changed his shoes, and, as if he were at his own home, casually unbuttoned his shirt and sat down on the sofa."Huh?"Jordan changed her shoes and walked over. She sat at the coffee table in front of him, her face serious as she said, "You'd better tell me the truth!"Westley leaned back against the sofa, his posture casual."What do you want me to confess?""I want you to..."The man suddenly moved closer, and Jordan swallowed her words.She stared wide-eyed at the extraordinarily handsome man in front of her.He had undone four buttons of his shirt, and as he moved, his muscular physique subtly showed through.Her gaze couldn't help but fall inside his collar.Suddenly, she felt her mouth becoming dry."Jordy, you need to take responsibility for your words.""I..."Before she could finish, her waist was grabbed, and before she could react, she was sit

    Jordan spoke again as his car was about to drive into the underground car park. "The underground car park is very winding. Just drop me off in front of the building, make a U-turn, and you can leave."But Westley parked in the underground car park, at the parking space that was registered to her.Jordan unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car. Seeing that he got out too, she didn't think too much about it."Just drop me off here."Westley said calmly, "I'll send you upstairs and watch you go inside.""It's really safe here."Jordan couldn't argue with him. Though she said that, she still let him escort her upstairs.When she used her fingerprint to unlock the door, she said, "It's fine now.""I'll watch you go inside."Seeing his persistence, Jordan unlocked the door and entered.She planned to turn around and say goodbye, but she was suddenly pushed from behind.The sound of the door closing followed, and then she was hugged tightly from behind by the man.Only now d

    Jordan thought for a moment, and a line of reasoning gradually became clear."Are you saying Nathan really is my brother?""Not exactly," said Westley. "He's related to you, he's your cousin."Jordan wasn't too surprised. "I see."Westley smiled. "You're much calmer when things happen now, but it still shows on your face. You need more practice."Jordan couldn't hide her emotions. She didn't show too much excitement, but she was still happy."Does my sister know?""Yes."Jordan blinked. "So, you all kept this from me, and I was the last to find out?"Westley pulled her up and headed for the dining room."We can talk while eating, it'll be cold if we wait."Jordan felt a little frustrated. "I'm so dumb."Westley peeled shrimp for her and said, "Nathan wanted to keep it a secret, so it's normal you didn't know.""But you all knew.""I knew because of my personality. You know me, if a stranger appears in front of me or you, I'll do a background check on him. Your sister know

    He had someone redo the decoration, and there would always be someone there every day to do the cleaning.Today, he had originally planned to bring her back, cook for her, and had prepared all the ingredients.This wedding house, aside from the time when Jordan came to get the marriage certificate, she hadn't been here since—she went out to study and work.It was completely different from what she remembered.There were also many photos of them.From before the marriage, after the marriage, and even recently.Including the photos she had taken over the years—award-winning ones, those published in magazines, and those that made the trending searches."They're all here. You can look around. I'll call you when the food is ready."Jordan nodded and started to explore.She found a darkroom, which was specifically for developing photos.Inside, many photos hung on the walls.These were all from the three years she and Westley were ignoring each other. They were all of her life and

    She wanted to see how he would truly lower his head for her.She also wanted to see if he really liked her.But later, after seeing the golden sea of flowers, he really did a lot to help her take pictures of the sea of clouds.The pink dolphins and fish were considered a blessing.She also witnessed them with him.So, she felt that the matter of pursuing her no longer mattered.She just wanted life to be simpler.She was really tired.She wanted to be happy and carefree.But unexpectedly, now that she didn't care about the pursuit anymore, he started again.It seemed that he would never follow her wishes.That stubbornness of his was something he couldn't change.‘Forget it,’ thought Jordan.She really couldn't be bothered to argue about these things anymore."Let's go." Jordan nodded and sat in the car after he opened the door.Westley walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat, leaning over to fasten her seatbelt.But Jordan fastened it herself.
