Chapter 31

It wasn't worth the trouble.Jane forced herself to calm down. "Alright then. Let's make the payment and leave. I don't want to see them."After making the payment, the salesperson led us to the front of the store to see the car.After being in repairs for so many days, all the traces of the car crash disappeared. It looked just like a brand-new car."Wait a sec. I need to use the bathroom."With that said, Jane rushed to the toilets.I smiled and decided to wait for her in the car.As soon as I got in, I heard someone order with a beautiful voice, "I want that car!"Whatever car she liked had nothing to do with me.I closed the door and planned on leaving as soon as Jane returned.What I didn't expect was that a salesperson came knocking on my window first.I lowered the window a little and asked impatiently, "What is it?""Hello, one of our customers wants to take a look at your car. Will that be alright?""I don't just want to take a look at it. I want to buy it," Jessi

Chapter 32

I only realized how stupid I had been on the way to dinner.I was actually looking forward to Ryan speaking up for me when Jessica was asking me questions.For example, "Isn't it normal for her to use my money to buy things?" or "Does she need your permission to spend my money?"But what did Ryan say?He said, "Grandpa bought her the car."He used Grandpa as an excuse to shut Jessica up.But the car was a Valentine's present he bought me a while ago.When Jessica was making a fuss, he not only didn't recognize the car belonged to me, but also forgot how I got the car.Another possibility was that he knew how I got the car, but he didn't want Jessica to find out. He was actually quite nice to me.Was I really Mrs. Frost? Why couldn't I even our community assets? Why did I have to hide the truth in front of his previous lover?How could he have tried to comfort Jessica in a cold voice in front of me?"That's enough. You're in your 30s already, don't be so childish. You can jus

Chapter 33

The MS Group was one of the top luxury brands in the clothing industry. It was the company that most designers wanted to go work for.Jack smiled. "That's right. I just got an offer.""It's more like you've just accepted the offer." Tom wasn't allowing Jack to lay low. "Before he came back to the country, the MS Group had been in contact with him. He had only just made up his mind recently."Not just Nancy, even I began to admire Jack. I said with a smile, "Looks like the University of Jelaston will soon put you on the front page of the university newspaper, Jack. You made them proud."Speaking of the university newspaper, Ryan would be on the front page most of the time. He had long graduated, but still, a lot of students still looked up to him.I felt that maybe he was supposed to be a star in the sky and I shouldn't have tried to keep him for myself."So you're deliberately celebrating Jack's enrollment into the MS Group?" asked Jane."That's right." Tom nodded. "Let's eat. W

Chapter 34

I was a little taken aback by his words.Jack was even more attentive than I had thought.At the barbecue restaurant, the smell of some of the meat made me feel nauseous, but I managed to force myself not to throw up.I hadn't expected him to notice.I smiled faintly. "A little. But it's no big deal.""That's good, health comes first." Jack then said meaningfully, "Always remember to take care of yourself no matter what.""Okay." His words made me feel warm.But later I realized what his words meant.The car slowly entered the underground garage of the Lake Garden. Jack helped me out of the car, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right. I looked around but couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.As we were walking, a Maybach zoomed past. The driver seemed to be full of rage.I was startled by the sudden situation. I then subconsciously covered my belly as I took a step back. If it weren't for Jack holding me steady, I would have fallen.After making s

"Who?" I asked, feeling puzzled.He sneered. "Jack."I was rendered speechlessI frowned, genuinely unsure what he was thinking. "Ryan, are you here trying to get proof that I'm cheating on you?"It would be truly unreasonable if he was.His eyes darkened, his lips pressed thin, and he quietly uttered the words, "No, I'm not.""Then why are you here?"Ryan didn't answer. His long eyelashes cast shadows on his cheeks, exuding a desolate aura.The night breeze blew, sending chills down my back. I then said helplessly, "If you're not going to say anything, I'm going to close the door."He then said after a long pause, "I've missed you."My heart skipped a beat.I was completely gobsmacked.He had said many flirtatious things to me before, mostly teasing, never heartfelt.A lot of the time, I had hoped he would say something from the bottom of his heart.When we were in bed, I would wrap my arms around his neck and say, "I love you. I've missed you."But all I got was in ret

The air seemed to have froze and my heart began to race.It was as if I still looked forward to get an explanation from him.After a moment of silence, Ryan asked in a cold voice, "Do you really want a divorce that badly?"The mixture of feelings in my heart caused me to find it difficult to breathe. I raised my head and looked at the blinding lights in the living room and blinked. I was on the edge of having a mental breakdown, but I still said ruthlessly, "Yes, that badly."I wanted to cut ties with him at least before my belly began to show.There was no way that I was going to gamble with a child in my womb.Behind me, the man remained silent. The sound of the door closing was his response.It felt as though all strength had been drained from me as I slowly slid down the shoe cabinet, staring blankly at the ceiling.In an instant, my heart felt empty and began to ache.That night, my pregnancy hadn't been able to affect my sleep at all. I lay in bed and couldn't fall aslee

"Is that it?""That's it."I cocked my brows "You don't like him at all?""Maybe a little" Jane answered. She then smiled mockingly. "But that doesn't mean anything. My mom said that she married my dad because they loved each other.""Even so, they would still aim for each other's heads when they got into a fight. How could there possibly be feelings that would last forever in this world?"I knew she didn't believe in love. She didn't even believe in love from parents or relatives.When her father failed in doing business, he began drinking, gambling, and assaulting his wife and daughter.Her mother disappeared without a trace, leaving her to grow up with that unreliable father of hers. This caused her to be frequently beaten by her father.I was afraid she would be upset, so I changed the subject and asked with a smile, "Then why have you been so good to me all these years?"Jane rolled her eyes. "Who was the one crying on the rooftop in the dead of winter, and begged me not

Chapter 38

Her words almost caused me to explode with anger.Ryan had spoiled her so much that she had no shame whatsoever.I curved my lips into a sneer and said, "Are you a member of the Frost family? Last time I remember, your dad had to beg Grandpa to allow you to have Frost as your surname. I don’t think you’re accepted into the Frost family since Grandpa hasn’t given the word yet. According to you, then I have more reason to say that this car belongs to me, because I am Ryan's lawfully wedded wife."I spoke deliberately, watching her expression change bit by bit, and a sense of satisfaction surged within me.Jessica gritted her teeth. "The two of you are getting divorced soon!""But we’re not divorced just yet, are we? As long as we're still married, I have more right to claim ownership of this car than you." I smirked."You have no shame!" She was furious as she glared at me fiercely. "If you’re going to divorce him then do it already! Why the hell are you still married to Ryan then?

Chapter 39

I was rendered speechless.He was indeed good at putting the blame on others.I wanted to laugh but the pain on my face prevented me from doing so. "Did you even give me a chance to explain things just now?"Ryan would always become desperate about anything that was related to Jessica."Charlotte...""Alright, your 'sister' is still waiting for you in your car."I didn't want to say anything more to him, so I cut him off and got back into my car.As I closed the door, he grabbed the door handle. "Cover up the mark on your face, don't let Grandpa find out about what happened. Otherwise, he'll definitely..."Each word felt like a dagger to the heart. The pain was excruciating.I didn't have the courage to continue listening, so I slammed the door to prevent myself from hearing any more of what he was saying.Tears welled up in my eyes, I turned my face away hastily, so that he couldn't see the state of me.It was me who had been hit, yet he was worried about Jessica getting in

I smiled and found a seat, picking up the teacup the servant had just brought, and took a sip.The tea was fresh and the fragrance filled the air. It tasted soft and sweet.I smiled. "Grandpa always thinks of us whenever there's something good.""No wonder the old man favors you. You have such a sweet mouth!" Aunt Chloe chuckled.I smiled faintly and didn't say anything else.After chatting for a while, Albert came to invite everyone to the dining table.The seats for the family banquet had been arranged in advance.Grandpa sat in the main seat, with Uncle Luke, Aunt Chloe, and their daughter sitting respectively to his right.On the left were Ryan who had taken over the Frost family, myself, my father-in-law, and Jessica.Everyone's status in the family was clear at one glance.There was nothing Jessica could do even if she wasn't happy with the arrangement.She could make things difficult for me in other places, but at the Frost family's residence, she wouldn't dare do any
