Chapter 915

مؤلف: Lean
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

    He said cryptically, “Maybe you two are destined.”Jane frowned, “Don’t disgust me.”Zachary reached out and pinched her chin, his gaze deep and mysterious.“Why didn’t you say that I was your fiance just now?”Jane slapped his hand away and glared at him.As if saying, “You’re crazy.”Zachary’s lips curved into a slight smile, and he pulled her into his arms.“You still haven’t answered my question.”Jane was speechless. “You’re my boyfriend, right? Why emphasize the fiance part? What’s the difference? Let him know our relationship, isn’t that enough?”Zachary disagreed, “A boyfriend could become an ex-boyfriend by tomorrow, but a fiance means marriage is on the horizon. It’s a more stable relationship and also more intimidating to him.”“He’s the one with the problem.” Jane waved her hand. “Look at this huge ring, it’s so obvious, and he can’t even see it. Even if I told him you’re my fiance, he wouldn’t believe it. Because he only broke up with me due to family pressure an

    “What’s wrong with me having a serious relationship? Unlike some people who treat their ‘friend’ as if she was their girlfriend.”This round ended in a draw.Jane placed a piece of fried chicken in her mouth.She had expected the fried chicken to be nothing special, but to her surprise, it was amazing.She immediately wanted to share it with Charlotte and ask Dominic why the taste was so unique.Just as she picked up her phone, Zachary snatched it away.“What? Want to fight again?”Zachary placed her phone on the edge of the dining table and sat beside her.“Are you wanting to ask about the fried chicken?”Jane’s gaze narrowed. “You really know me well. Looks like you truly love me a lot.”“Am I not showing it enough?”That was enough.She didn’t want to continue on that topic.Instead, she asked, “Why does this fried chicken taste different from the one in Jeswood?”“The chicken is different.”Jane took a closer look but didn’t notice any difference.“It’s organic chic

    Raymond glanced at Zachary’s expression and continued, “Now, your relationship with Mrs. Collins is well-known. Tom is currently having marital problems and is on the brink of divorce. It’s possible that Luthor might try to recruit him later. If you disregard Mrs. Collins, you’ll be walking right into Luthor’s trap.”After finishing his report, Raymond noticed that Zachary’s expression hadn’t changed at all.At that moment, he missed Roy more than ever.Roy was the one who could best understand Mr. Collins’s thoughts.But, of course, it was also because he was so good at it that he got sent to Afrealia.Raymond hesitated and said, “As long as we prevent Tom from contacting Mrs. Collins, Luthor’s plan won’t succeed.”The car fell into silence.They had arrived at the meeting place.Zachary didn’t give any instructions, only raised his hand.Raymond got out of the car, opened the door, and shielded him as he exited.“Mr. Collins, what should we do next?”“Nothing.”With that,

    "So clingy!" Charlotte teased. "You see each other every day, and still send so many messages?"Jane unlocked her phone, and her expression darkened.Charlotte immediately guessed who it was."All the sins I committed when I was younger are starting to come back at once," said Jane.She handed the phone to Charlotte.Charlotte asked, "Didn't you block him? I did, but he changed his number and kept messaging."Tom didn't care whether Jane would reply. He sent long messages, one after another.The general gist of them was that with someone like Zachary, who had such a powerful background, it was impossible for him to marry her. He urged her to cut her losses before she got hurt.He also said that he was getting a divorce and couldn't forget her, wanting to reconcile because he truly cared for her.He explained the situation with the girl from last night—he had only been acting on impulse, nothing had happened, and promised there would be no more “flirty women” once they got back

    “Jane, you won’t be able to marry him! Stop dreaming! Ouch—”Tom's voice faltered as the pain hit him, making it hard for him to say another word. Even begging for mercy was difficult. He was close to being castrated.Zachary retracted his foot, and Tom immediately curled up in pain.He raised his hand, and Ross stepped forward, dragging Tom away."Tell the Hilton family, if they don’t want to end their bloodline, they need to keep a better watch on their people."Ross nodded. "Yes, Mr. Collins."The hotel entrance returned to normal.Jane stepped forward and asked, "Why did you suddenly come back? Didn't you say you had something to do this afternoon?"Zachary dispersed the cold aura around him, his expression softening as he gently patted her head."Change of plans. I came back to check on things."Jane wasn’t convinced. "You told me that with the people you’ve placed around me, you couldn’t have not known Tom was going to show up.""You just wanted a chance to hit him," s

    Jane immediately pulled back and called out, "Rick."The girl finally whispered in her ear, "I hope to see you alive again."After leaving the store, Jane still felt a chill down her back.Charlotte gently stroked her back to comfort her. "Let’s not act rashly. We’ll talk after asking Zachary.""Anyway, she's already out in the open, there's no need to be afraid."Jane had anticipated that after her breakup some time ago, many dangerous things might happen in the future.This path was full of thorns. Even if one could walk through it, they would be covered in wounds.But since they had gotten back together, she knew she would face it with Zachary, no matter what."Rick.""Mrs. Collins."Jane stopped. "What did you just call me?"If she remembered correctly, they had always addressed her as "Miss Greenwood". When did the title change?"You and Mr. Collins are going to marry, so of course, we need to change how we address you. In the future, you’ll be Mrs. Collins."She had

    Zachary arrived uninvited.He even sat in the host's seat.Without any hesitation, he picked up the tea that the butler had brought for the head of the family, his long fingers delicately holding the cup. He lightly tapped the rim twice, then took a sip.After setting the cup down, he looked at the people in front of him.In a joking tone, he made everything obvious.But he remained completely calm.Luthor sat at his right, in the lower seat.Silently sipping his tea, his expression unchanged.Yet in his eyes, hidden from everyone, was a strong murderous intent.The expressions of all the members of the Joseph changed.The head of the Joseph family had no dealings with the Collins family, nor had he offended them.But he understood very well the purpose of Zachary’s visit.The marriage alliance with the Collins family’s greatest enemy, the Winston family, had already made it clear to the world, they were now enemies of the Collins family.But even so, he couldn’t openly br

    Raymond saw that Luthor's hand, gripping the redwood armrest, had turned pale.If it had been glass, it would have shattered by now.‘Mr. Collins really did have a knack for making people angry.’"Mr. Collins..." The head of the Joseph family said cautiously, "Could you kindly tell me where my eldest daughter is? I'll go pick her up so she can go with Mr. Winston to register for the marriage. This is something that's already been arranged. There’s no turning back."Zachary fished out a cigarette, and as he looked for his lighter, the head of the Joseph family immediately held one up to him.But Zachary, instead of using the lighter, tilted his head slightly and lit the cigarette with the incense that hadn’t burned out behind him.The head of the Joseph family froze, still holding the lighter in midair.Zachary glanced at him indifferently, his voice casual. "Sorry, I didn’t notice you offering the lighter."It wasn’t that he hadn’t noticed, he simply didn’t want to use the one

    He placed some meat on her plate and asked, "Don't you like being close to me? Or do you still think our relationship isn't suitable for closeness right now?"Jordan couldn't really explain.Westley answered for her, "Do you think the development between us is different from others? So it's awkward?"Jordan thought for a moment, and it seemed like that was the case.Westley continued, "So you still want to go through a process before we get to the point where we can kiss in a romantic relationship?"Jordan fell silent.Westley said, "If you have something to say, just say it. There's nothing we should be embarrassed about between us."Jordan bit her cutlery, and after a few seconds, she said, "Before we remarry, we can maintain a working relationship. We can eat together, do some things together, but we can't have any intimate behavior. Can you accept that?"Westley obviously couldn't accept it.He didn't really understand why she wanted it that way.But he still went along w

    "Otherwise, would you listen to something you don't want to hear?"Jordan didn't want to argue with him. "I'll say this one last time... Mm!"Her lips were sealed, and when Jordan tried to push him away, she kept punching his shoulder.She tilted her head to dodge, but he firmly held her by the back of her head.She opened her mouth to bite him, but he grabbed her face, deepening the kiss.In the quiet office, with only the two of them, the sound of water droplets, which made hearts race and faces flush, could be heard.Jordan, unable to take it anymore, kicked him.But his long legs held her down.She was completely at his mercy, unable to move at all."Um..."It wasn't until the sound of a knock on the door broke the intimate atmosphere."I'm here for the interview... Is this a bad time?"As soon as Westley released her, Jordan immediately pushed him away, wiping her lips forcefully.She stomped on him hard and tried to calm her emotions as she looked toward the door."

    Jordan went to sit on the sofa and casually raised her hand toward him."Go on."Westley looked at her, noticing how she resembled a boss, a look that had some of his own influence in it.He smiled.Jordan shot him a glare. "Be serious.""Alright."Westley sat up straight, looking serious.He began to explain his previous plans to her.Except for parts of the plan that needed to be kept confidential, he didn't hide anything else."The reason I had you stab me was indeed to let you vent your anger, to make up for the harm I've caused you. It was just a coincidence that the higher-ups issued an order at the same time, so I decided to go along with it. Now, the plan has been completed. I can indeed come back to life, but right now, there's nothing I need to do. The Howard family has Leanne, and I've already resigned. I'm just a jobless wanderer now, and no one cares. Whether I'm alive or not doesn't really matter."Jordan felt that those last two sentences were clearly meant to

    But when she reached the bedroom door, ready to go out and check, she thought again, how could he, such a grown man, possibly be putting himself through hardship?With so many people under him, he could just call anyone to bring him clothes.And he could book a comfortable presidential suite for himself.There was no need for her to be concerned about it.Besides, it was her who had locked him out in the first place.Going out now would only make it seem like she cared about him too much.Right.She shouldn't go out.Jordan returned to her bed.But no matter what, she couldn't fall asleep.In the living room, Westley was already lying on the sofa.The heating was turned up high, so he wasn't worried about the cold.He was holding his phone, making some kind of plan.In the end, Jordan didn't even know how she fell asleep.When she woke up groggily, the first thing she did was get up and check on Westley.But she found that he wasn't there anymore.She let out a sigh of

    She now saw herself only as a sister figure to him. Even though they were a bit close, there was still a sense of distance and wariness.It was impossible for her to fully open up to him.But at that moment, suddenly talking about their relationship wasn't really appropriate.Besides, with how things had developed between her and Westley, if he intervened, it would just force them apart.In the end, it would be her who got hurt.‘Forget it.’Nathan decided to just watch how things would unfold.If Westley still didn't realize his mistakes and hurt Jordan again, then no matter what, he couldn't let them be together."Has Jasmine not come back?""Huh?" The topic changed too quickly, and Jordan was a little slow to react. "No.""Nathan, did you take anything from this room?"Nathan's gaze darkened slightly. "No."Noticing that he was in a bad mood, Jordan didn't ask about his situation with Jasmine."Jasmine probably has something she wants to do."Nathan could tell from her

    "I've already picked out a few candidates, but I just haven't had the chance to arrange meetings for you yet. Maybe you've only ever been exposed to him since childhood. Try dating someone else, and you might realize he isn't the only one for you." Jordan shook her head. "Nathan, that's not it..." "I'm certain I like him—no matter how outstanding others are, I won't be interested." Nathan frowned. "You've never tried being with anyone else. How can you be so sure?" Of course, Jordan was sure. Ever since her youthful heart first fluttered, she had been certain, apart from Westley, she would never love anyone else. And that was precisely why his indifference had wounded her so deeply. She had filed for divorce and despised his later attempts at remorse. Because she had never wavered in her feelings—yet he only began to love her after she decided to let go. If he had realized it even a little sooner, they wouldn't have suffered through such a painful, drawn-out

    "I’m not doing anything," Westley answered her question, squeezing her hand slightly. "Just need your help with something."Jordan was already in her 20s.How could she not understand the things between men and women?His voice was dangerously hoarse now, and what kind of help could he possibly need from her?"You do it yourself, I can't help.""Well, I’ll do all the hard work."He was the one doing all the hard work indeed.But he was holding her hand, making her hand... move with his!Jordan tried to pull her hand back. "Westley, you’re making me mad."Westley leaned on her shoulder and laughed lowly. "Alright, after you help me, feel free to get angry. Hit me however you want. But right now, Jordy, I can't stop."The temperature in the kitchen gradually rose.With the heating, it made the air dry and uncomfortable.She had just taken a shower to cool down, but now, a thin layer of sweat had formed.She felt hot.Jordan had nowhere to hide and couldn't break free.In t

    The arm around her waist suddenly tightened.The breath sprayed near her ear, hot and unsettling.The man's hoarse voice came. "Don't want to sleep? Then how about we do something else?"Jordan gripped the blanket tightly, weakly lying, "I want to go to the bathroom. I haven't washed up yet either."Westley released her.Jordan quickly escaped. She didn't know what she might do if she stayed another second.Westley lowered his head, glancing at her, then sighed deeply.This was a pyrrhic victory.Jordan stayed in the bathroom for a long time.She even took a shower.But after finishing, she suddenly remembered that her bath towel had been taken by Westley.Standing in the bathroom, she felt like she had no way out.And in her haste to come in, she hadn't grabbed a change of clothes.She had impulsively picked up the clothes that Westley had swapped out of and her clothes and tossed them into the laundry basket.Her clothes were now all wet.She could only silently fume.

    ‘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
