Chapter 261

Jane was rarely so serious, and I felt an indescribable unease rising within me.It was as if something was about to be destroyed.I stared at Jane, biting my lip, "I'm prepared. Go ahead and tell me.""Actually..." Jane struggled to speak. She bit her lip before finally saying, "The person who took you to the school infirmary and the one who brought you food in college wasn't Ryan!"‘Wasn’t Ryan?’ My mind buzzed, and I felt a fleeting blankness, stunned.It took me a while to come to my senses, a heavy weight pressing on my chest, making my voice tremble. "Really?"Deep down, I knew Jane was telling me the truth.Jane knew how important this was to me. If she wasn't completely certain, she wouldn't have told me like this.But...What did all the affection I had for these years mean?Jane nodded. "Yes.""Then... the person who really helped me..." I took a deep breath, trying to stay calm as I spoke, "Was Jack, right?"Jane was stunned. "How did you know?""No wonder..."

Jane ran barefoot to open the door. When she saw who it was, she was taken aback. "Jack, you... came to see Charlotte?""Yes."Jack smiled gently, stepped inside, and while changing into slippers, glanced at me. "How are you feeling today? Still in pain?"Although it had only been one night, seeing him again now made me feel a bit embarrassed.The person who helped me was him.Noticing my dazed expression, Jack came over and chuckled, "What are you thinking about?""Nothing."I gathered my thoughts, hurriedly shook my head, and answered his earlier question, "I'm feeling much better, not as painful as yesterday.""That's good."He placed a bag on the coffee table, "I got some scar cream for you from the hospital. Your injuries are quite serious. Although they're not on your face, they still can't be neglected. You’ll still need to prevent yourself from getting scarred."Perhaps knowing the situation, I felt a bit guilty and very grateful, and I was particularly obedient, "Oka

The air seemed to have thickened.Jack reached out and gently rubbed my head, his voice calm and steady."The person I wanted to invite to the concert that time was you...""And the person I was waiting to be divorced was also you.""The person I've liked for 20 years is you."His voice was composed and firm, carrying an unwavering resolve. His dark eyes sparkled with intensity. "Charlotte, it's always been you, and no one else."My heart felt as if it were being tugged forcefully.Then it became anxious, feeling lost and unsure.It turned out that when someone truly cared for and loved me, my first reaction was to feel unworthy.I was overwhelmed with mixed emotions and instinctively wanted to deny it. "How could it be me? Haven't you known each other for so many years? And you and I...""Do you remember I told you I returned to the Renolds family only after I was eight?"Jack explained slowly, lifting his luminous wrist to show me the red string, "Before I was brought back

Talking about this, Jack also seemed a bit pained. "So when I met you again during university, I hated myself for missing so many years of your life and letting you suffer so much.""Jack, this is not your fault."When I was going through difficulties, he was still just a child.Some paths in life, you would have to walk by yourself.No one else could help.It was already very good that he could lend me a hand when I needed it the most.At that moment, Jane came out with the pizza, smiling. "How was your chat? How about we dig in?"Jack responded enthusiastically, "Go ahead, I skipped lunch and am starving."With Jane around, the hot pot was filled with joy and laughter.Gradually, I managed to push the trending topic out of my mind.It will pass; everything will pass.The next day, the snow still hadn't stopped. The cold wind was biting, and everything outside was covered in a blanket of white.Jane stayed over last night. Now, after receiving a phone call, she was nearly

At that moment I stood outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, I felt an unprecedented sense of relief.Jane had initially wanted to stay with me, but I asked her to leave first.Back then, I chose to start alone, and now, it was time to say goodbye on my own.I watched the traffic in front of me, seeing couples coming and going, either getting married or divorced.It was easy to judge.Smiling faces are getting married; expressionless or resentful faces are getting divorced.Broken relationships are always hard to handle gracefully.Fortunately, there was no such issue between Ryan and me.He had no feelings for me, and my eight years of love for him were a series of misunderstandings.But I didn't expect that Ryan wouldn't come alone.He got out of a shiny black Maybach, followed by Bethany.The man's expression was as cold and indifferent as usual, as if he was oblivious to anything being amiss. He stuffed his hands into his pockets and said, "Let's go in."His tone was so cas

As I looked out the car window, there was a moment when it felt like tears were streaming down, yet my face was clean and dry.Even my vision was remarkably clear.Just as I got home, the real estate agent suddenly called to tell me that a buyer had decided to purchase the apartment at the Lake Garden. And they were generous, not negotiating the price at all. I was asked to go over and meet with the buyer. If everything was fine, we could sign the contract and proceed with the process.On my way to the Lake Garden, I kept thinking that if this apartment had found a buyer just a little bit earlier, the Charlotte Jeweley wouldn't have had to rely on the RF Group Group's investment.Unfortunately, there were no "ifs."However, having a big tree to lean on has its pros and cons.Arriving at the Lake Garden, I was surprised to see the "buyer" standing next to the agent. "Mr. Brown, it's you... you're interested in this apartment?""Yes, it's me."Ian seemed completely unsurprise

Jane and I pondered the situation but couldn't figure out who would be doing such a kind deed."Never mind, let's not dwell on it. It's good news to get orders when we're starting a business," Jane said optimistically, stretching her back. "Someone's coming for an interview soon. Are you ready to join me?""Sure," I agreed.With so much to do for the new company's opening and only Jane and I working around the clock, we couldn't possibly finish everything.Hiring new staff was an urgent task.During interviews, Jane asked the questions while I simply observed and would discuss the decisions with her later.The first few candidates seemed okay, but I couldn't pinpoint what was good about them.Then, a young woman walked in, slightly bowing to us and sitting down politely. "Hello, I'm Megan Smith..."Her innocent appearance seemed somewhat familiar.As she spoke, she would occasionally glance at me, her eyes bright and moist.Jane found it amusing and asked, "Do you know Ms. Wi

We could only hire more as time went on.In the afternoon, while I was focused on designing new spring collections, I heard voices arguing outside. One of them was unmistakably familiar, and the other wasn't completely unknown either.I just opened the door and was about to step out when I heard Jane say, "Don't you understand? I said we won't do business with you! Designing clothes for you would dirty Charlotte's hands!""Humph!" The response was a cold and arrogant snort, as expected from Bethany. "Then let me make it clear. Whether you want to or not, you will do it."Only Bethany would be so domineering."I'm won’t accept orders from you. What are you going to do about it?"Jane wasn't intimidated, spreading her hands, "Or you can call the police. Oh right, you'll need to call the dog catchers, not 110, to avoid wasting police resources."She never lost in the art of insulting.Bethany was furious as she gritted her teeth. "Are you sure you won't accept my order? Fine, I'll

When Mrs. Shaw appeared in the office, her chest was visibly heaving, indicating she was quite agitated. It was clear to anyone that she cared deeply for her daughter, Bethany. The concern she showed was akin to that of protecting a precious gem.Seeing that she has someone to back her up, Bethany pouted and looked like she wanted to cry, "Mom, I just wanted to help her with her business after her recent divorce, and she and her friend actually called me a dog!"Mrs. Shaw furrowed her brows and glared at me with anger. "Charlotte, don't be so ungrateful! Apologize to my daughter!""Like mother, like daughter."Jane couldn't stand it anymore. "What do you mean by ungrateful? Who's begging your daughter to take care of our business? I already said we wouldn't take her order, but she insisted on making a scene!""Who do you think you are? Do you think you’re worthy of talking to me?"Mrs. Shaw disdainfully dismissed Jane's words and turned her threatening gaze back to me, "Charlotte

It was one thing to be intentionally humiliating, but she's wrapping it up so nicely. She presented a picture of deep affection, but I still clearly remember the candid words she exchanged with Ryan in the hospital room.Mrs. Shaw was clearly swayed by this performance, tapping her daughter's forehead in frustration. "Why are you so obsessed with Ryan?"Bethany smiled obediently. "He's such a good man. Some people don't appreciate him, but I should, right?"‘Such a hypocrite.’I found it amusing but was not inclined to argue with her. I just wanted to wrap things up quickly and asked again, "So, can you tell me your requirements now?""It must be noble!" She threw out her most important requirement with an air of command and continued, "It should have lots of diamonds, sparkling everywhere, with a collar lined with Astrian White pearls, something that looks very expensive. Oh, and it must have rubies, I love red..."By the end, I felt a bit overwhelmed.Diamonds, Astrian White p
