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

    Jane received a message from Zachary inviting her to dinner.Just as she was about to tell Charlotte, Frank appeared and took her away.It was perfect timing.She called the front desk and ordered a few dishes.She quickly tidied up the room, placed flowers and candles on the dining table.Then she opened a bottle of red wine to let it breathe.She had just nestled into the sofa and opened Zachary's chat window, planning to ask where he was.At that moment, she heard a beep at the door.She got up and walked over.Seeing the familiar figure entering, she was a little surprised. "So soon?"Zachary shut the door with one hand and immediately pulled her into his arms.They had recently reconciled and were in the honeymoon phase of their relationship.But his behavior was still a bit off.Jane patted his back. "I can’t breathe... a bit tight."Zachary loosened his grip slightly but didn’t fully let her go.He still held her close.His face nuzzled into the crook of her neck

    Zachary had a phone call and, after finishing it, came over.He hugged her from behind."You've already put on this outfit, don’t waste it."Jane pressed his hand down. "This is proper sleepwear. I usually wear this."Zachary lingered on her swan-like neck."A candlelit dinner, sexy sleepwear... Are you sure this isn’t a hint?""Of course not!"Jane elbowed him in the stomach. "Have you lost your memory? Didn’t we just finish this morning? I don’t want to die in bed while I’m still young. Go away, and help me pack!"Zachary kissed her cheek, released her, and began folding her clothes.Jane went into the bathroom, changed out of her sleepwear, and stuffed it into her suitcase.She walked around the room to make sure nothing was left behind, grabbed her phone, slung her bag over her shoulder, and opened the door.After waiting for a while, Raymond entered and took the suitcase.Once they reached the underground garage, Jane saw Charlotte."Are you heading back to Jeswood, o

    "But what?"Westley didn't say anything.Zachary didn’t ask either, just silently smoked his cigarette.In the end, Westley couldn't hold it in anymore."Why aren’t you asking me?""Don’t really care."Westley clenched his fist, took a few deep breaths, and suppressed the words that almost slipped out.If it weren’t for owing someone a favor, and their close relationship with mutual interests, he really couldn’t be bothered to deal with Zachary."I’ve been thinking a lot lately, about why I ended up becoming friends with you.""I had the same question myself."Frank walked over and handed Westley a glass of wine.Westley’s gaze darkened a little. "This wouldn’t happen to be from my wine cellar, would it?"Frank smirked and replied, "A limited edition."Westley must have committed some sin in his past life to be acquainted with these two in this one."You know that kind of limited edition is priceless, right?""I know, so while I’m still alive, I might as well try a sip."

    "Later, when I found out you were chasing after Zachary, I thought you were very carefree, not bound by the constraints of society. But after you started dating him, I saw you hesitate. You were thinking too much, and you just didn’t have the courage to give up. I said you were serious back then. Now, it seems, your heart is completely occupied by Zachary."Jane listened to Charlotte’s words and finished a bag of crisps.She gasped and said, "That can’t be. In my heart, there’s still a place for you.""Yes, and that’s all."Jane held her hand. "My dear best friend, please don’t say that."The two conversations of the guys and girls ended at the same time.Zachary and Frank went back to their rooms to find their wives.Westley, being a lonely bachelor, returned to his room and took out his phone to send a message.The red exclamation mark was both glaring and piercing. It was also cold and sharp.He angrily threw the phone aside and lay down on the bed, muttering through gritte

    Westley asked, “How did you help?”Charlotte and Jane were that close, and Frank listened to his wife. Even if Zachary asked him, it probably wouldn’t have worked."I didn't help."Westley knew it.He shouldn't have bothered asking Zachary."Are you leaving just like that?"Zachary followed Westley. "His actions don’t represent mine."Westley felt like he had fallen into a trap. "I don’t need your help.""Well, I never said I’d help."Westley was certain now!In this lifetime, Westley had a smooth ride, rising to his current position.Everyone he met would try to flatter or please him.So, Zachary’s honest words were really hard to accept.This was probably why no one dared to say anything honest to their emperor during ancient times."I can get my wife back myself."Zachary and Frank simultaneously responded, "We’ll be waiting for the good news."Jane didn’t get up until noon.It wasn’t something she wanted to do. It was Leanne who came to drag her out of bed."Tsk t

    'Jewelry?' I wondered.I furrowed my brows slightly and raised my voice to ask Ryan, who had just gone into the bathroom, "Ryan, Jessica's here. I'll head down to take a look."The next second, Ryan quickly walked out of the bathroom. His face was colder than ever. It was an expression that I had never seen."I'll go. It's none of your business, go wash up."The man who had always been calm in front of me suddenly had a trace of emotion in his voice. He sounded annoyed and nervous at the same time.A strange feeling arose in my heart. "I've already washed up. I was the one who squeezed the toothpaste on your toothbrush, have you forgotten?""Alright, let's head downstairs together then. We can't keep the guest waiting."I held his hand and walked down the stairs.The staircase was in a spiral. When we were halfway down, I could see Jessica wearing a white dress and sitting elegantly on the sofa.She also raised her head when she heard us coming down the stairs. When she saw mi

    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

    “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.
