Chapter 932

مؤلف: Lean
Jane found it strange. “He actually has things he doesn’t tell you?”

Charlotte didn’t think it was a big deal.

At the moment, Zachary’s matters were certainly the top priority.

Whether his path went smoothly or not was tied to Jane’s safety.

And she trusted Frank. If he didn’t say something, there was a reason for it.

When the time came to speak, he wouldn’t hide anything from her.

“You’ll know eventually.”

As they were talking, they reached the parking area.

Raymond had been waiting for a long time.

Jane wanted to drive herself, but she was refused. “We’re now under special times, please understand.”

Jane sat in the back seat and whispered to Charlotte, “I’m still kind of trapped.”

Charlotte comforted her. “It won’t be like this forever, trust me.”

Jane smiled. “I thought you’d make me trust Zachary.”

Charlotte held her hand. “If I made you trust him, you’d still be anxious deep down. But I know you’ll trust me unconditionally.”

“Of course.”

“Then that’s fine.”

    He glanced backstage to confirm that Jane and the others were fine, then changed the music.“Let’s invite our first model on stage...”Jane, being a social butterfly and having worked as a part-time model before, confidently walked on stage.On the other hand, Charlotte was a bit nervous, but once she was on stage, she quickly became natural and graceful.Leanne was also a social butterfly, having grown up with various social etiquette and attending different parties to network.This kind of scene was nothing to her.Jordan was the busiest, as she had to take photos from every angle.As the crowd grew larger, it became more difficult for her to move around.“Isn’t there security?” she asked Dominic. “This isn’t okay, they’re crowding the stage, it could be dangerous.”There was security at the exhibition, but they weren’t stationed at a single booth.After all, the event they were hosting wasn’t as large as other major events.The crowd was big, but most were just here for t

    Charlotte immediately stood in front of Jane.She had never met the person in question, but she had seen photos of him.This was Jane's biological father.“Doing well, huh? With luxury cars and bodyguards. Jane, you’ve made it big but didn’t even bother to show some respect to your old man. Instead, you’ve been hiding from me. Luckily, I have the means to find you.”Jane grabbed Charlotte’s sleeve, hiding behind her, without saying a word.Even though she hadn’t been beaten in a long time and hadn’t seen this so-called father, the memories of being abused as a child were still triggered.She now had the ability to defend herself and knew she wouldn’t be beaten anymore, but she couldn’t control the instinctive fear.“It’s okay.” Charlotte comforted, holding her hand. “I’m here. He won’t get to you.”With Raymond and the others around, there was no way Jasper Greenwood could approach Jane.“Charlotte, let’s go...”“Okay, let’s go.”Charlotte opened the car door for Jane to get

    Charlotte asked, “Has Luthor’s investigation been completed?”“That matter wasn’t hard to investigate. The twin sisters, the Joseph family helped to clarify it. The person he married is was also from the Joseph family, so it won’t affect him much.” Frank sat up. “But being embarrassed is a huge disgrace for him. He cares most about his reputation.”Charlotte could understand. After all, Luthor was a generation older than them, essentially an elder. How could he allow a younger person to embarrass him like that?On the other side, Jane gradually stopped crying.Zachary gently patted her back, helping her to calm down.Then he helped her into the car.Ross handed over a thermos, closed the car door, and stood by the car, waiting.Inside the car, Zachary poured her a cup of hot tea and gave it to Jane to warm her hands.He rubbed her head and placed a kiss on her hairline.“He won’t appear in front of you again.”Jane suddenly thought of something and looked at Zachary, her hand

    Charlotte shook her head. “I’ll go tidy up first.”This outfit wasn’t very convenient either.“I’ll accompany you.”“You can talk to Mr. Howard.”Charlotte quickly left.Westley sat down in the main seat, and his trusted aide immediately poured him tea.Frank, who had drunk the tea Charlotte poured earlier, asked, “What video?”Westley gave a subtle glance, and his aide handed the tablet to Frank.Frank opened it and looked.When he saw Jasper’s face, he suppressed his disgust and watched until the end.“What did they say?”Westley replied, “The USB driver was sent by a courier. The sender’s address is a courier station in a nearby county. Following the surveillance footage, the person’s face wasn’t captured. Based on the body type, it can be judged that it's a martial artist, but it’s hard to determine whether it’s from the Collins family or the Winston family.”“Let me see the surveillance.”The aide tapped the tablet and brought up the footage.Frank paused and zoomed

    Westley was puzzled. “In such a hurry?”Zachary didn’t want to leave either. It was clear that Jane was dependent on him.But time waited for no one. If they didn’t solve the issue quickly, once it spreads all over the internet, no matter what they did later, it would still hurt Jane to some extent.Frank also stood up. “I’ll go check on the other Jasper, see what’s going on.”“I’ll leave this to you,” said Zachary, his voice suddenly serious. “I’m counting on you. The news absolutely can’t be leaked.”Westley was momentarily taken aback.They had known each other for many years, and Zachary had never asked him for anything before.Because of the favor he owed and their brotherly bond, if there was something, they would just speak frankly.But hearing him speak so earnestly made Westley respond with the same seriousness. “Don’t worry.”After sending off Zachary and Frank, he instructed the maid to send over some food.Jordan wasn’t really good at comforting others. She could

    Charlotte said, “You stay in Nelana for now. I’ll handle the company’s affairs. There’s no rush for you to come back.”Jane knew exactly what she meant—she was stopping her from going back.After all, with Westley here, it was much safer than in Jeswood.The power of the Collins and Winston families was all in Jeswood. Now that Zachary had returned to handle things, if she went there too, it would definitely cause more trouble.But she felt that hiding like this wasn’t the solution either.Was she supposed to live her life under Zachary’s protection forever?“I want to face this with him.”Charlotte was a bit surprised. “You’re already facing it with him. As long as you’re okay, he won’t have to worry about you. He’ll handle things soon enough.”The issue with Jasper was different from the others.It was Jane’s most indelible scar.Like an ulcer, the flesh kept rotting.Even the slightest touch would pierce straight through her heart.“Since we’ve decided to get married in

    Jordan was at a loss for words.Jane said, “When I first pursued Zachary, he ignored me. Later, when I stopped pursuing him, he said he liked me and started to cling to me.”Jordan couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “No wonder they’re good friends. Birds of a feather flock together. I can’t imagine that if someone truly liked another person, they wouldn’t even call them or send a message on WhatsApp. What kind of feeling is that?”Jane felt that someone like Westley had been strictly trained since childhood.His future path had been paved, and he couldn’t afford to let his emotions show too much.It was quite similar to Zachary.It wasn’t until he realized he couldn’t keep the person by his side that he began to panic.But she didn’t really agree with this kind of behavior.Especially since Jordan was younger, and Westley was 10 years older than her.The gap in their emotional worlds was bound to be large.Of course, a young girl would want to feel loved, passionately and drama

    There were only a few people at the airport.So she immediately saw Zachary waiting at the exit.She jogged a few steps and threw herself into his arms.Zachary gently patted her head, placing a kiss on the top of her hair. In a soft voice, he asked, "Are you hungry? What would you like to eat?"Jane shook her head, then looked up at him. "Aren’t you going to ask me why I came back to Jeswood?"Zachary’s lips curved into a faint smile. "No need to ask, I already know."Jane curved her lips. "Makes you sound so smart."Zachary took the bag off her shoulder, and Ross immediately took it from him.He wrapped his arm around her as they walked out together."Then I don’t know the reason that you’re back. How about you tell me?" he teased.Jane gave him a sidelong glance.Zachary helped her into the car and held her hand, playing with it.He asked again, "Are you hungry?"Jane shook her head.The car started, and after a while, she realized something was off with the route."W

    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
