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

Eric pressed his forehead, and his brows and eyes already showed signs of exhaustion.It wasn’t that he was tired, or that he had been waiting until midnight.Rather, he regretted that, before Zachary had fully grown up, he should have been more resolute.He knew he could eliminate Jane without letting Zachary committing suicide.“I can only wait and see what they want.”When they returned home, Jane noticed that the room had already been cleaned.She asked Zachary, “Did you have someone clean the room?”Zachary nodded and went to the kitchen to pour her a cup of hot water.Jane took it and sipped slowly.Zachary went to take a shower first. When Jane went to the bathroom afterward, the water was still warm.That night, they did nothing and just held each other to sleep.Early in the morning, they were woken up by a phone call.Jane turned over and reached for her phone, but a hand reached it first.It pressed the answer button, and a resentful voice came through from Jord

When she heard the name Jasper, Jane instinctively stiffened.Zachary raised his hand and placed it on her back, gently soothing her.“Relax, I’m here.”Jane wanted to relax.But Jasper was like a curse.Although she hadn’t seen him in years and hadn’t been beaten again, seeing him now made those dark days from the past feel like they were resurfacing.And she couldn’t deny that this biological father of hers had indeed become a stain in her life.In this situation, staying with Zachary was actually harming him.How could she relax?“Eat, it’s bad for your stomach if the food gets cold.”Zachary served her some dishes, his gaze never leaving Jane, regardless of the expressions on the people across the table.Under these circumstances, no matter how carefree Jane tried to be, she couldn’t eat.She tapped Zachary’s thigh under the table.Zachary held her hand and whispered, “We’ll talk about it tonight. Don’t make a scene now.”Jane withdrew her hand.She looked at Rebecca

“However, fate brought us back together, so this time, I will stay with Zachary firmly. No one and nothing can separate us.” She paused and then changed her tone. “That’s all I wanted to say.”Just as she was about to sit down, Madam Collins spoke, and Jane immediately straightened up.But Zachary pulled her back down.She felt a bit nervous, but Madam Collins said, “Let’s all be seated. We’re not your superiors or elders, you don’t need to stand as if you’re reporting to us or showing absolute respect.”It seemed she still wasn’t accepting it.Jane didn’t argue.Madam Collins asked, “Do you really love Zachary?”Jane answered without hesitation, “Yes.”A faint smile flashed in Zachary’s eyes, and he served her a hot drink.“If you don’t want to eat, have something to drink. It’ll warm your stomach.”But since Madam Collins was speaking to her, Jane couldn’t drink it at that moment.“We’re having a family dinner today,” Zachary reassured her. “It’s not a struggle session or

Jordan and Whitney chatted casually.Most of the time, it was Jordan doing the talking while Whitney listened.After covering enough about the wedding, they talked about Jordan's work over the past few years.She also mentioned the tangled feelings and past with Westley.When she got to that part, she grew a little curious. "Whitney, before you married Caleb, did you ever like anyone?"Whitney shook her head."What about a secret crush?""Not even that."Whitney rarely talked to others about her past.Zachary only knew because he had looked into her and thought she was perfectly suited to be a pawn.And she had needed to become that pawn—to completely sever ties with her past, achieve her goals, and fulfill her ambitions."I was too busy studying and working to think about anything else."Jordan sensed she didn't want to go further, so she didn't press.Just then, Jane called, saying she and Charlotte would arrive soon and join them for lunch.She relayed the message to W

"We had a meal together before, and I noticed you always seemed to like sweet dishes, so I tried buying some. I was worried it might not suit your taste.""It does, it does." Jordan took a bite of the pudding. "It's delicious. But did you buy anything you like to eat?"Whitney said, "I already had breakfast. I can't eat anymore."Jordan offered a suggestion, "Why not try a bite of this sponge cake? It's a specialty here in Nelana."Whitney really couldn't eat any more. She had a small appetite, a condition built up over the years.If she ate a full meal, she couldn't eat snacks afterward. And if she ate snacks, she would lose her appetite for meals.She had a small stomach.But seeing Jordan looking at her so expectantly, she still picked up a piece of sponge cake and took a bite."It's very good."Jordan smiled and took a big bite of the sponge cake herself."Whitney, you're so good at picking food! This is great!"The old house was a bit remote, but it had a rooftop terrac

Jordan said Whitney would be coming over later.Westley hadn't expected that the first one to get out of bed would actually be Whitney."Just the two of you?" he asked."For now, yes."Jordan glanced at her phone. In the group chat, it was just her and Whitney talking—no response yet from Jane or Charlotte.She more or less knew why Jane hadn't responded, but Charlotte too?Still, it didn't really matter. There weren't any specific plans for today anyway.She hadn't known Whitney was coming, so it was a nice surprise."Maybe my sister will text me around noon. We can decide what to do then.""You." She pointed at Westley. "You are not allowed to show up in front of me again after breakfast."Westley nodded. "Got it."After buying food, Whitney told Caleb, "I'm going to find Jordan. You can go handle your stuff. I'll be staying at her place until the wedding."Caleb leaned against the elevator wall, his voice low and lazy. "You're telling me what to do?"Whitney wasn't in a

She replied with an emoji, then looked for her girls in the group chat to ask them out for food.Their group chat had a new member now—Whitney.And it was Whitney who replied to her."I'm already eating at the hotel. Do you want to come over, or should I bring something to you later?"Whitney had actually had a good night's sleep.Though it was a bit later than her usual habit, she still managed to get up for breakfast.Before, it was always Caleb who brought breakfast to the bedside and fed her, because she simply couldn't get out of bed.Jordan figured she was probably having breakfast with Caleb and decided not to bother her."No need, I'll just eat something nearby. Your hotel isn't close to me."Whitney replied. "I'm heading over later anyway, but I'll probably be a bit late. If you're hungry, go ahead and eat something first. I'll bring you something else."Jordan. "Thanks."Whitney. "No problem."Caleb noticed her holding her phone, her expression much softer, even t

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
