Chapter 241

Leah was well aware of Jade's temperament. Once she made up her mind about something, she wouldn't change it. This stubbornness of hers was what exasperated Leah."Oh, you…" Leah sighed deeply, looking at Jade with a mix of heartache and helplessness. "Do you really have no feelings for Caelan at all?"Jade's smile was also helpless. "Grandma, I want someone who truly loves me. Even though Caelan is outstanding, his heart isn't with me."Leah finally understood. Jade had her pride—she didn't want a man who didn't love her wholeheartedly."Since you've made up your mind, I won't say more. The engagement was somewhat abrupt in the first place. How can a marriage bound by interests be happy?"Leah's words brought tears to Jade's eyes, and she threw herself into Leah's arms. "I knew you'd understand me, Grandma."Leah affectionately patted her head and said with a smile, "Go ahead. Do whatever makes you happy."Jade nodded and left Leah's embrace. "I'll come to see you again in a fe

Chapter 242

In Jade's previous life, Jacob had shamelessly taken advantage of her. She hadn't dared to tell anyone then because she was ashamed and timid. This had only emboldened Jacob further. This time, she refused to be weak and fought back bravely."Y-You're insane," Jacob stuttered, his face pale with pain as he knelt on the ground, unable to get up. Despite his condition, he remained unaware of Jade's capabilities."You better not give me a chance, or—" His sentence was cut short as he was abruptly sent flying through the air, landing with a thud on the ground.Standing over him was a tall, sturdy man who effortlessly lifted him."Ms. Severin, do you want me to break his hand?" It was Owen, who had been secretly protecting Jade.Having witnessed Jacob's attempt to take advantage of Jade, he had wanted to intervene. However, Jade had beaten him to it, so he continued observing from the shadows. Only when he saw that Jacob remained unrepentant did he step in.Jade was surprised by Owe

There was a small hairpin in Owen's hand, and Jade took it with curiosity. "What's this?""A locator," Owen replied.Jade's eyes widened in surprise. She had only seen such things on TV before and never expected that they existed in real life."What's with the surprise?" Owen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, trying to smile but failing.Jade pinned the hairpin to her hair and asked Owen, "Is this okay?"The hairpin was adorned with diamante in a chic design. Who would have thought it was actually a tiny locator?"Yeah." Owen nodded. "Looks good.""Thanks!" Jade smiled at him and got out of the car.As soon as she reached her dormitory, Colin called her. "Jade, come over quickly."Hearing the urgency in Colin's voice, Jade became nervous. "What's wrong, Professor?""Our drug approval has been intercepted," Colin said anxiously."What?!" Jade was also worried. Everything had been fine before, so how could it suddenly be deemed unfit?These opportunists really

Jade swatted Melanie's wandering hand away and said seriously, "I have important plans tonight. Stop making things up. Who have you ever seen dressed this formally to go out for fun?"She spun around on the spot and smiled at Melanie. "Do I look like a career woman to you?"Melanie propped her chin up with her hand and replied earnestly, "Don't you think this looks more like a silent sexy style?"Their conversation didn't seem to align, so Jade rolled her eyes at Melanie. "Forget it. We're not on the same wavelength. Your mind is full of garbage."Checking the time and seeing it was getting late, Jade grabbed her bag and headed out, but not before telling Melanie, "I'll bring back some good food for you.""Yay, I knew you're the best!" Melanie cheered, blowing a kiss to Jade.Jade smiled and then hailed a cab to The Lochan.…Cooper was already waiting for her in the private room. When she arrived, he quickly informed her, "I'm in Room 209."Finding the room, Jade pushed the d

Just as the sharp knife was about to strike Jade, the door was kicked open. A strong hand timely blocked the assailant's knife.The masked person hadn't expected Jade's reinforcements to arrive so quickly. Without landing a blow, they decided not to linger and quickly fled through the window."Are you okay?" Owen looked Jade up and down, relieved to see she wasn't injured.Jade shook her head and glanced outside, catching sight of the masked man jumping onto a motorcycle and disappearing in an instant."That was too close for comfort," Jade said, still shaken by the experience. Too much comfort had made her lower her guard.The enemy had intentionally stayed hidden for several days, waiting for her to relax her vigilance."Will he come back?" Jade asked with a frown.Owen shook his head. "If he chose to strike at this time, he must have been tracking you for a while. Give me your phone."Jade handed her phone to Owen, who expertly opened the case and carefully examined it for a

Shane committed all sorts of wrongdoing, relying on his family's power and influence. His grandfather was a prominent figure in politics, and his father worked in the government administrative department.Although Shane didn't have a job himself, he still held considerable sway in their circle due to his family background.In Jade's previous life, he was the one who had assaulted Melanie, causing her to miscarry after six months of pregnancy. Eventually, he abandoned her. Unable to bear the blow, Melanie jumped off a building.Melanie's miserable fate once again flashed before Jade's eyes. She clenched her fists, but she still couldn't extinguish the raging anger in her chest."Shane, you're here at last." Cooper greeted Shane warmly, guiding him to his seat. He gestured towards Jade as he introduced her, saying, "Meet my good friend, Jade Severin."Cooper emphasized "Jade Severin", so Shane immediately caught the hint and responded with a meaningful "oh".Jade's name wasn't unfa

Chapter 247

Shane felt a twinge of awkwardness. He was accustomed to calling the shots and others fawning over him in his circle. Never before had he encountered rejection like this.Initially, he was just asking casually, but Jade's attitude stirred up his competitiveness. He made up his mind that he must win Melanie over."Forget it if you don't know her." He decided to take a step back for now and put Melanie aside. "I'll take care of your matter. I'll get back to you tomorrow."Shane was very generous not to stoop to Jade's level. His smile remained soft on the surface, but there was a chill in his gaze.Cooper was somewhat puzzled and signaled to Jade with his eyes, asking her not to be so cold. Having Shane around would make things easier for her.Unfortunately, Jade hated Shane to the core. Not only did she refuse his favor outright, but she couldn't help the urge to kill him now that they were sitting together.The reason she didn't leave right away was a favor to Cooper. After all,

Chapter 248

Cooper hurriedly introduced Melanie, "This is my good friend, Shane Bancroft. Shane, this is Melanie Newell."Cooper was unaware of the bar fight, thus he did not know about the girl Shane had asked about earlier.Shane politely greeted Melanie, "Hi, Melanie. You look really sweet."Melanie, typically laid-back, had never experienced such praise before. Like any other girl, she dreamed of being treated like a princess. Instantly, she smoothed out her rough edges and smiled at Shane, resembling a docile kitten. "Thank you."Observing Melanie's shy expression, Jade couldn't help but feel a twinge in her heart.Was this fate? In her past life, Melanie and Shane had crossed paths, and now they seemed destined to be intertwined once more.With both Melanie and Shane already seated, Jade found no excuse to ask Shane to leave, so she reluctantly took the passenger seat."Melanie, have you finished your thesis?" Jade tried to make conversation.Melanie's face fell, and she complained,

Jade stared into Melanie's eyes, asking with utmost seriousness, "Do you believe in rebirth?"Melanie blinked, then waved a hand and laughed heartily. "Are you drunk or something? Hahaha!"Jade stayed silent. She knew Melanie would think she was crazy, yet she couldn't ignore the memory of Melanie's previous suffering.Jade held Melanie's hand and asked nervously, "Melanie, can you promise me something?" Seeing Jade's serious expression, Melanie put away her smile and nodded. "Go on.""Could you... not associate with Shane?" Jade asked reluctantly.Melanie's smile froze momentarily as she gazed at Jade with uncertainty, and she struggled to say, "Jade… do you like him?"Jade was speechless."I actually noticed earlier that you've been staring at him." Melanie's expression turned somewhat crestfallen. "If you like him, I can—""What nonsense are you blabbering?" Jade quickly interrupted her, "How did you even come up with the guess that I like him?""Then why don't you want m

"No!" Jade refused outright, trying to brainwash Melanie. "Shane is not a simple person. He's seen all kinds of girls, so don't delude yourself into thinking he likes you."Melanie pouted. "Jade, why do you have such a big issue with him? It's not easy for me to have someone like me for once, and you're just discouraging me."Melanie wasn't bad-looking, with a round face that was quite cute, albeit slightly chubby. Plus, she was easygoing and carefree, so even if someone liked her, he wouldn't dare confess to her. Consequently, she had remained single over the years.Shane had a poised demeanor and smooth eloquence, precisely the image of a perfect man in Melanie's eyes. His appearance ignited her flames of romance and set them ablaze.Jade frowned, concerned that Melanie might fall into Shane's trap if she continued like this.Jade explained, "It's not that I don't want you to date, but he may not be as good as you imagine. Before getting too close, it's wise to observe his chara
