Chapter 91

The engagement party had begun and Cassidy had begun receiving guests at the entrance to the mansion. She was extravagantly dressed from head to toe and beaming.She had to greet the guests alone as Ethan had gone back to his ruse of being a cripple but she preferred it this way, it gave her the opportunity to speak to these people without Ethan's shadow.The guests scrutinized the decorations and set up. Although they didn't speak, each had the same thought… too much!The women in particular eyed the wedding decorations and tutted. Some even began whispering.“If this was what the bride to be settled on for engagement party decorations with few people then I wonder how the actual wedding decorations would be.”“Her choices reek of new money.”“That's offensive to the new money people who actually have taste.”“Then it must be that the rumors are true.”“Rumors?”“You haven't heard? I heard it over the radio on the way here, she's the unwanted mistress.”Someone turned to whisper too a

Everyone waited for his words with bated breath. He looked at Jane with wonder at her discovery of the hidden functions of the necklace.“Yes, she's correct.”There was an uproar as the guests began to speak again but this time more boldly.“Ha! So she wanted to become a phoenix?”“She'll forever remain a chicken even though she bears the Owen family name.”“They were such a classy bunch, who knew their remaining relative would turn out like this and ruin their good name.”“She's a prime example to teach young ladies what not to become.”“So Ethan Harrington would have married this ninny if his wife hadn't shown up today?”“I can't imagine how his life would turn out then, his wife is really his lucky charm.”Ethan was livid but he composed himself and dismissed the guests.“Dear guests, thank you for coming and as you have probably figured out, this engagement will not happen. I apologize for showing you our embarrassment.”They got the hint and began to leave one by one while whisper

Chapter 93

Bruce took Jane to the room where he had put all her things in storage, Jane assessed the room and decided.“We're not moving my things back to the master bedroom, Bruce. I like it here way better,” she said with a small smile.Bruce was a little taken aback at her decisiveness but he wasn't surprised at her decision, he had to admit that he would have been a little disappointed if she let everything go.“Yes, Young Madam.”“Wait a minute.”“What?” Did she change her mind? This simply wouldn't do, she had to be a little more hard-hearted.“Why have you been calling me Young Madam and not Young Mistress like you always did?”Bruce blinked. That was it? He thought it was going to be something else.“Bruce?”“Ah yes, well Dr. Owen was sort of a mistress so we would rather not sully your name like that. Young Madam is better.”“Oh,” she said surprised, “Ok.”She had never thought it would be something like that.They turned to continue setting up the room when Ethan's guard and two others

After Arnold left, Ethan's sour mood returned. He walked to the balcony attached to their room and stood with his hands in his pockets.He began to wonder if he had gone about all this the wrong way but he had no choice.

It had been two weeks since Jane returned home, she had settled down and gone back to school. With her being more confident, it was hard for the guys to not notice the beauty concealed initially.Guys from different classes and departments had started to compete for her attention and it made the girls jealous but how could they say anything to her?It was no news that she had changed a lot from her usual peace loving self who avoided confrontation. Now she always had something to throw back at anyone who made trouble with her.Even her step sister had not been spared from butting heads with her, her eloquence and confidence always had them stifled but the guys loved it.“Jane, Jane, just hear me out for ten minutes please…”“Senior, I don't have ten minutes to spare. I have a class to get to.”“Ok, just five minutes…”She rolled her eyes and made to leave.“Alright! Just two minutes, okay?”“Please be quick, I really do not want to rush to my next class.”“I… I have been watching you f

Chapter 96

Jane stood frozen with a panicked look on her face as Ethan wheeled himself away to the elevator to head to their room.She knew he meant what he said and being the kind of person he was, she knew he would drag her to renew their vows even if she resisted.She admitted that she had succeeded in pushing all his buttons and he would definitely not sit still anymore but she didn't want to bury the hatchet with him just yet, it was far too enjoyable to watch him suffer.She strode quickly to her room and took out her phone to call Ivy who picked up on the first ring.“Jane? Where were you? What happened?”“You didn't tell me anything and I heard from the gist being passed around in school that your husband picked you up.”“Yes, yes he did but that is not what this call is about.”“What do you mean? Is something wrong?”“It's Ethan…” she sighed.“Ok, and?! You can't keep me in suspense like that, young lady.”“I promise I'm not, just listen,” when she heard quiet breathing on the other end,

Meanwhile Jane had landed at W County and prepared to check into the hotel she had already booked when she heard her name from behind.She turned and came face to face with Brock Davenport who stood in awe of Jane before his eyes, she had changed.He then remembered that she knew what he had done and looked down at his feet in shame, he couldn't bear her intense gaze.“Senior, why are you here?” Her question took him back to when he had first seen her at the hospital when she first arrived at W County.“I had a conference here. I'm already being trained professionally at the hospital from last time.”Jane arched her brow, “Good for you,” then she spun back around, “well bye, I hope things work out for you.”He hesitated, “Jane… please wait.”She sighed and turned to face him as he approached and stopped three feet from her to avoid people listening in.“Can we talk… about last time? I know I did something wrong and I would like to apologize and make up for it.”“There is no need…”“Pl

“Let go, Young Madam!”Bruce ran into the room. “That is the Young Master's… bodyguard!”Jane relaxed when she heard that the maxed man worked for her husband. She looked at the blood staining his shirt and licked her lips while shifting her eyes awkwardly.“I did not know you were here on my husband's behalf. Why did you not say something earlier? I am sorry…”“And I did not know you still remembered that you have a husband,” the man sneered.His sarcasm made her unhappy.“Of course I remember that I have a husband. But how can you hurt innocent people, even as his bodyguard?”Jane shook him off and wanted to help Brock Davenport up, but could not escape the man's vice grip.“Let me go!” She cried out.“You are coming with me!” Let's go? He had left her alone for a day and she took that as an invitation to run away to another country and even come to another man's house. He was not letting her out of his sight.“Just because you are my husband's bodyguard does not mean you can be so u

Chapter 99

Ethan reached out to touch her beautiful face. He yearned to tear off her two-faced mask and make her confess the truth.When she had said that she liked him, were those just lies meant to win his favor?“Did anything happen last night that you want to tell me about?” It had been dawn when he finally got to W County, the weather had started acting up so they couldn't fly.He wanted to ask exactly what heart transpired between Brock Davenport and her but he couldn't bear to utter that man's name – and he wasn't sure that he wanted to hear her answer.Jane's thoughts traveled to that encounter in the dark that she had the last time she was in W County and all her grievances came spilling out.“So many things. I am still in pain. That man, he…”She couldn't wait to rant about all the awful things that had happened. However a roar interrupted her before she could continue.“Shut up, Jane!”At her husband's shout, Jane stared at him in blank shock. He had called her with such anger… was he

Chapter 100

“Why? Did something happen?” Ivy asked suspiciously.Bruce sighed as he felt a tingle of fear move up his spine and moved his phone farther away from him.“The Young Master… misunderstood the Young Madam… he saw her with Young Master Davenport.”Ivy trembled in rage at Bruce's tone. She had to bite back several curse words.“Jane said you were very smart. I told her she was too simple-minded – with your low salary, how brainy can you be?”“You should be happy Jane chose your Young Master at all, in that condition of his. She was worried about her husband the first time she ran to W County and asked someone where he was.”“I was not able to contact her when she boarded that plane back then. I was worried about her – she flew to such a remote place just to take care of your Young Master, without caring about the price of the ticket.”“I don't understand what you just said and I don't want to. I will assume I just heard a very big joke.”“Listen up; if she comes back hurt, I don't care ho
