All Chapters of Broken to finding love: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Jason and Evelyn exchanged a glance before Jason released his embrace. They both went to the front door to welcome their guest as the host and hostess. The Bank’s family drove more than five luxurious cars into the garage. They came down one after another, as they made their way to the front door. As the Banks family emerged from their vehicles, Jason and Evelyn stood tall, gracious hosts welcoming esteemed guests. Sir Edward Banks, Leonard's grandfather, led the procession, his imposing figure commanding respect. Reginald Banks, Leonard's father, followed closely, his eyes scanning the Lockwood estate with interest. Catherine, Leonard's mother, also followed with her younger daughter, Lisa clinging to her arms. Leonard himself appeared last, his gaze locking onto the Lockwood estate taking in the view of where Jane grew up. Tall, handsome, and confident, Leonard exuded an aura of quiet strength. “Welcome, Sir Edward. It's an honor to have you and your family here.”

Leonard's lips reluctantly left Jane’s, as they turned to face the intruder. “Sorry to interrupt,” Desmond said with a warm smile, “but dinner is ready. Everyone is waiting for you guys.” “We will be right there Desmond, thank you.” Leonard grinned. Desmond nodded and left. Jane was shy about being caught by her brother making out. Seeing her shy expression, Leonard's frustration of being interrupted turned into a warm smile. “Let’s go.” He held her hand, pulling her with him. “Leonard wait,” Jane stopped, making Leonard also stop. “I think I should be honest with your family and tell them about my previous marriage. It won’t be nice if they later knew from somewhere.” Jane suggested. Leonard's expression turned resolute. “No, Jane. Don't tell them. It's our personal life, no one else needs to know.” Knowing that if his family came to know about Jane's previous marriage, the good relationship they seemed to have now, would turn sour. Even his grandfather forcing him to get ma

Ava, who had been watching everything unfold, couldn’t take it anymore. She had loved Leonard for more than fifteen years now. She once confessed her feelings for him, but he rejected her. She thought since he had been single for all this while, she felt he might like her too. Now seeing another woman in his embrace, she couldn’t take it. As she saw Leonard wanting to kiss Jane, she couldn’t help interrupting. Her shout echoed through the ballroom, “How could you, Leonard? How could you get engaged with her?” Her voice cracked, and tears streamed down her face. Jane and Leonard's kiss was forgotten as all eyes turned to Ava. She stumbled forward, her heels clicking on the marble floor. Suddenly, she lost her balance and crashed into a nearby waiter. The waiter's tray of drinks went flying, shattering on the floor. Ava cried out, clutching her ankle. “Oh, my God, I'm hurt!” Seeing Leonard still standing beside Jane, looking at her as if he was looking at a joke, a sharp pain

Los Angeles, Wilson’s Enterprise. Wilson's enterprise was busy as usual. The only difference is that everyone is in a bad mood. No one talks to each other if it’s unnecessary. The atmosphere was heavy with unease, like a household where a volatile patient temper loomed. And why was that? It’s because their president was in a bad mood just like a volatile patient whose temper loomed. The employees had been cracking their brains about what happened suddenly. It’s not that the company was experiencing bankruptcy, so why? When was the last time their boss acted normal? That would be three months ago. ******** Teddy’s office. The sound of something crashing could be heard. Assistant Ian was trembling seeing his boss go crazy. When was the last time his boss acted normal? That would be three months ago before he received that call, which told him to prepare the divorce papers. 10 minutes ago… Assistant Ian walked into the office after getting his boss' permission. Since hi

Dylan apartment. Lucy was reclining on a chair deep in thought, before a hand appeared in front of her, picking her up. “What are you thinking about?” Dylan asked her. She had been moody for a week now. After Jane and Leonard's engagement, her mood had turned sour. She had been happy after finding her lost friend, and her happiness affected him, now she is moody, which is also affecting him negatively. He hadn’t been intimate with her for a while now, which he caused his friend, Leonard, for his misfortune. If it’s not for him, he wouldn’t be suffering.”I’m just thinking about Jane. You know, she has gone through a lot already, I can’t see her suffer again.” Lucy's care for Jane was genuine, which Dylan was always jealous of. Sitting her down on a chair in the dining room, he went to the kitchen to bring some cutlery. “I ordered Chinese, let’s eat.” He said as he walked up to her. He brought the takeout to the table, opening them one by one. “Don’t you hear what I said? How ca
