CHAPTER 301 – IN VAIN

In front of Victor James, Angela Carter never regarded herself as a girl.

She has always considered herself as a warrior. She fought hard to defeat Victor James and always tried to bring him down. She had been working hard for a long time, but she always fell back to the same place without any progress.

At first, Angela Carter was not very worried. She thought that she had enough time to spend with Victor James, but now she cannot think like this. A lot of time has passed. She had to find a way to knock down Victor James and to "clean sweep" him.

These days, she watched a lot of adult films and learned a lot of flirtatious skills from the heroines. Today, she decided to take Victor James to practice.

She thought her learning ability was very good. She just needed to knock down Victor James and then Victor James will surely give up. However, before she could start, she had been pushed away by Victor James and he threw her on the other side of the sofa.

Angela Carter bit her teeth angrily and scolded, "Victor James, you bastard, can’t you be a little gentle?"

Victor James glanced at her and said, "Arthur Simon is coming. If you want to become a wife or a mother, please go for him. I don’t think he will mind."

Angela Carter glared at him severely, her eyes turned, and she had a new idea, "Victor James, do you know what drug those people gave to me?"

She thought that this kind of drug can only make people drowsy, and would not cause too much harm, so it was the most suitable medicine to deal with Victor James.

As soon as Angela Carter’s eyeballs rolled around, Victor James understood what she was thinking. He said, "Go back with Arthur Simon and don’t think about anything messy."

 

"I won’t go back. I want to sleep with you." Angela took advantage of Victor James’s distraction and pounced on him again, but his action was even faster and she pounced on the empty sofa.

What else Angela Carter could do?

The doorbell rang loudly. It seemed that the stupid third wheel Arthur Simon has arrived.

Victor James went to open the door, and it was Arthur Simon. After politely greeting Victor James, he said, "Polaris, I came to pick you."

Angela Carter grabbed the pillow and smashed it on Arthur Simon. "Arthur Simon, how can you be so stupid?" She said angrily. "You’ve been with me for so many years, don’t you know what I’m thinking?"

Arthur Simon, of course, knew what Angela Carter was thinking, but Victor James has called him to pick her. It was impossible for him to refuse. What’s more, he knew that Victor James was Angela Carter’s uncle. If anything really happened between them, it would be too awkward.

Angela Carter reluctantly stood up to go back with Arthur Simon and stared at him. Her eyes were so fierce that they can kill people. Arthur Simon hung his head down and didn’t dare to say a word. If he said anything at this point, he would be beaten badly by Angela Carter.

Just after sitting in the car, Angela Carter’s mobile phone rang. She picked it up and looked at the name on the screen of her mobile phone. She smiled happily, "Grandpa, you haven’t slept yet?"

CHAPTER 302 – GRANDPA’S RETURN

"I haven’t seen Angela for a long time. I miss Angela so much and can’t sleep." Grandpa’s kind voice fell into Angela Carter’s ear.

"Grandpa, sorry, Angela is not a good child."

After hearing Grandpa’s voice, Angela Carter thought she was not filial. She promised to go back to the United States to see grandpa a few days ago, but she didn’t go back. Her mind was busy thinking ways to pursue Victor James.

"Silly girl, you are my dearest child. How can you say that?"

"Grandpa, I am free these days. I’ll ask someone to book a ticket right away. I’ll come to America tomorrow to meet you."

"Angela, you don’t need to go to America. Just wait for me in Jiangbei."

"Grandpa, have you come to Jiangbei?"

"I still have something to deal with. After that, I will come to Jiangbei."

"Grandpa, since you are coming to Jiangbei, let me tell you a good news in advance."

"What’s it?"

"Three years ago we thought that sister-in-law died but she is back alive. Although she has lost the memory of the past, she has come back."

"..."

"Grandpa, don’t you think it’s amazing? You said her body had been cremated. How could she survive?"

"Angela, I have not been in charge of affairs for many years. So I don’t know what happened. But since your brother cares so much about your sister-in-law, it’s good that she has come back."

 

"Yes, after the return of sister-in-law, brother also started smiling a lot. He is not the same as before."

Grandpa asked, "Has your sister-in-law recovered her memory?"

Angela Carter shook her head and said, "No, she hasn’t recovered it yet. She doesn’t even recognize us."

"Well, I see." Grandpa sighed and said, "It’s not early. Go home and rest."

Angela Carter, "Grandpa, how do you know I am not at home?"

"..." Grandpa gave a little pause and said, "I heard the surrounding noise. Besides, I know that you little devil won’t stay at home and doesn’t sleep so early."

Of course, he couldn’t tell Angela Carter that he was downstairs, sitting in the car, watching Angela Carter leaving Victor James’s house.

 

After the call with Angela Carter, the person came down to meet grandpa.

Grandpa asked the driver to open the door, and Victor James sat next to him in the back seat.

Grandpa asked, "How is the matter that I asked you to check?"

Victor James said, "I found no clue."

Grandpa said, "We can’t get rid of Jonathan Ronan until we find out about this. If Jonathan Ronan stays alive, the secret may be made public at any time."

Victor James also understood the seriousness of the matter, but it was not so easy to find out the things that have no clue.

Grandpa added, "Now it is an era of Internet. If the news leaks, no matter how hard we try, we won’t be able to block it."

Victor James said, "I will try harder."

Jonathan Ronan can easily register an email and write everything on the email and then schedule it to post at any time. The secret can be disclosed after his death. There were many similar methods and Victor James cannot explicitly let the information technology department to check.

However, no matter how difficult it was, he will do his best to find out the thing for the sake of the person they wanted to protect.

They just needed to find the way that Jonathan Ronan has chosen to expose this matter, then it won’t be difficult for them to deal with Jonathan Ronan.

At the same time, Jonathan Ronan also had a dream. He saw that he got the money, the power and he regained the lost glory of the Ronan family.

CHAPTER 303 – PLAYED A GOOD TRICK

Because Jane wanted to take better care of Janell, because she wanted to quickly retrieve the past memory, because she wanted to return to Edwin Carter and Janell as Mrs. Carter, Jane’s will power in quitting drug treatment was stronger than normal patients.

For several days in a row, she almost didn’t relapse due to drug addiction, and her mental state was much better.

There were just two or three days left in Children’s day, and the clothes that she designed for Janell was almost finished.

Because it was the first time to make clothes for her daughter, as one can well imagine every design and stitch was beautiful. She stitched two beautiful skirts and a suit, so Janell can have more choices, she can choose to be a beautiful princess or a handsome tomboy.

Jane took the dresses and looked at them again, as if she could imagine the lovely appearance of Janell when she will wear these clothes.

 

The thought that Janell was her own baby made her heart filled with joy.

She was not alone. She had her own child, Janell.

Just when Jane was indulged in her thoughts, her mobile phone on the other side vibrated, and she looked at the screen of her mobile phone displaying two words, she was no longer familiar with - father.

At first, she didn’t want to answer the phone, but she thought about it and wanted to hear what else Jonathan Ronan had to say to her, so she answered.

She heard Jonathan Ronan’s worried voice, "Jane, dad is back. You are not at home nor in the company. Where have you been? Dad is worried about you."

If she didn’t know about being poisoned by her father, she will continue to be cheated by Jonathan Ronan’s kind appearance.

 

In the past, when she heard Jonathan Ronan’s voice, she always felt happy. She has lost her memory and everything, but there was still a father who cared about her so much. And accompanied her to give her strength.

But now after hearing Jonathan Ronan’s voice, Jane only felt extremely hypocritical. She didn’t even want to say anything to him.

"Jane, what happened? Why are you quiet? Are you unwell?" Jonathan Ronan asked a series of questions.

Jane took a deep breath and said, "I’m ok. Why did you call me?"

Jane’s indifference proved Jonathan’s guess right. She called a few days ago to ask about the medicine, he was afraid that she will manage to know that the medicine he had given her contained morphine.

But it was a guess, to make it sure he said again, "Jane, dad is back. When will you come home?"

Jane thought and decided that she should discuss this thing face to face. After a long silence, she said, "I’ll come back in a moment."

Jane prepared Janell’s clothes first and then got ready to meet Jonathan Ronan.

She went back and when she was at the door, she smelled the tempting aroma of food, just like many times before.

In the past, when she smelled this kind of fragrance, she felt happy to have her father’s care. But now she has only one feeling. She felt as if Jonathan Ronan tried to please her, rather than cared about her from the heart.

But with Edwin Carter and Laura Ferdinand, she felt that they really cared for her from the heart. The people on both sides gave her totally different feelings.

People say that women’s sixth sense is accurate.

Jane also believed that her sixth sense was very accurate. For example, when she first met Janell, she felt very familiar with her.

CHAPTER 304 – A GOOD PLAY

"Jane, you’re back." Jonathan Ronan greeted her.

Jane nodded her head and didn’t say anything.

"Dad has cooked your favorite soup and the dishes you like the most. Sit for a while and let dad serve the food to you." After that, he turned around and went to the kitchen.

Jonathan Ronan behaved like he didn’t notice Jane’s abnormal mood at all. He was as kind as he has been with Jane for three years.

Actually, it was not that he didn’t have the idea that Jane doubted him. He knew it, that’s why he has to play more tricks.

As long as Jane didn’t regain her past memory, he wanted to seize every chance to use Jane to deal with Edwin Carter.

He was also not afraid to admit that he gave her drugs. He was just waiting for Jane to ask. When Jane asks him, he will have a 100% chance to make her believe in him again.

Jonathan Ronan filled a bowl of soup for Jane and served it to her. She said, "Jane, dad has come back, you don’t need to stay hungry. Have this soup first."

Jane didn’t pick up the soup. She looked at Jonathan Ronan and asked, "Why do you give me the drugs?"

Jane didn’t call him dad, and her voice was cold. Jonathan Ronan knew that Jane had believed that it was he who fed her poison.

But it didn’t matter.

He was ready to deal with it for a long time.

Jonathan Ronan pretended to be distressed and sighed, "Do you know it? Edwin Carter told you?"

Without waiting for Jane to speak, Jonathan Ronan said, "I wanted to hide it from you, but it seems that I can’t hide it from you longer."

 

"Hide it from me? You can hide it from me for a while, can you keep it hidden from me for a lifetime?" Jane said emotionally.

"Jane, do you know why I have to give you drugs? Do you remember the time when you were in a sickbed for a year?"

Of course, Jane remembered that time, she can’t even get out of bed and walk. She was not very conscious. She felt that she had turned back from the ghost gate.

"Do you think it was really an illness?" Jonathan Ronan shook her head and said, "Jane, no, you were not sick. You’ve been injected with a medicine."

"What kind of medicine?" Jane asked.

Jonathan Ronan bit his teeth, and his expression became more painful. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice, "After being injected with that kind of medicine, the person has 50% chances to die and 50% chances to lose their memory."

After listening to Jonathan Ronan’s words, Jane was shocked. She tried to stay calm and said, "You are saying that I have lost my past memory, not because of an illness but because I have been injected with that kind of medicine?"

At that time, she was pregnant with Janell. Someone injected her with that drug and forcefully took Janell out of her abdomen.

Who can be so cruel to her?

"Yes," Jonathan Ronan nodded.

"Who did it?" She paused and asked again, "Why someone did it to me?"

"Because we are ordinary people, we are not worthy of the Carter family. Carter's family just used your belly to give birth to their child. When the child was born, you, as a mother, had no value in their eyes." Jonathan Ronan said with tears in his eyes, and then he slapped himself hard and said, "Jane, you should blame me. I’m not a qualified father."

CHAPTER 305 – DAD WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU

Jonathan Ronan dropped some tears and spoke again emotionally, "The Carter family wants children, but they don’t want their children to know that they have such an ordinary mother, so the best way was to let you die, so they injected you with the medicine used by the army of country to deal with spies. Their purpose was to let you die, but your destiny didn’t let you die. You still survived."

Jonathan Ronan’s words were eloquent, and she can’t help but waver.

However, there were some thoughts disturbing Jane’s mind,

If he is telling the truth, why does Edwin Carter approach her?

Why did Edwin tell her that Janell is her child?

If the Carter family only wants children, based on Edwin Carter’s status what kind of women he cannot have? After all, a lot of women are willing to have children for him.

…

Although Jane had doubts in her heart, she showed nothing. She calmly looked at Jonathan Ronan to see in his eyes, but he didn’t dare to face her at all.

Jane took a deep breath and asked, "Why my mother died because of you?"

 

Jonathan Ronan didn’t expect that she would suddenly mention the cause of her mother’s death. He was a little flustered, but soon calmed down.

He was a very cunning man, and soon came up with a way to deal with it. He wiped his tears and said sadly, "Jane, you would rather believe a person who has nothing to do with you than me?"

Jane, "..."

Jane also admitted it in her heart that she believed in Edwin Carter and Laura Ferdinand more, but she couldn’t tell him this. She was worried that her words would hurt Jonathan Ronan.

Jonathan noticed that Jane didn’t say anything and hesitated, he said, "Jane if you don’t believe me, I have nothing to say. I just want to tell you, no matter where you go, don’t forget, dad will always be there for you."

 

Leaving the words behind, Jonathan Ronan got up and left. He just walked for a while and almost fell to the ground, as if he had been greatly hurt.

Jane can’t bear to ask anything else after seeing Jonathan Ronan like this.

She was a person who had no memory. She could guess about the past and could listen to others. She had no way to know the truth. To prove the truth of these things and to know what happened three years ago, she just has to regain her lost past memory.

But she knew nothing about the past. How will she find it?

Her father left the discussion without telling her about the past, but Laura Ferdinand had told her a lot. She said that they two grew up in Kyoto.

She can have some more information from Laura Ferdinand and she can also go back to Kyoto to have a check, which may help her find her past. With this idea, Jane went to find Laura Ferdinand.

Whether it was true or not, she just wanted to confirm it.

...

CHAPTER 306 – DETECTION OF EAVESDROPPERS

At the same time, Edwin Carter has just heard the dialogue between Jonathan Ronan and Jane, and his eyes were as dark and solemn as the sky with dark clouds.

He had an idea that Jane has been injected with the potentially lethal medicine, and now he had confirmed it.

If three years ago, Jane didn’t have a good fortune, she might have disappeared leaving him and Janell alone forever.

He just thought of the sufferings that Jane had suffered, his heart was torn into pieces and his pain became unbearable. He thought about Jane, who had experienced all the terrible plots, how helpless and scared she must be now.

He immediately took out his cell phone, turned to Jane’s phone number, but he stopped when his fingertips were about to touch the dialing key. He knew that Jane wouldn't attend any call at this time.

After thinking about it, Edwin Carter did not call Jane, he called Robert Michael, "I have confirmed it. Jane has been injected with the kind of medicine you said. Now you have to find a solution as soon as possible."

Edwin Carter himself asked people to put Jonathan Ronan back. He didn’t stop Jane from meeting him. He just wanted to hear the news from Jonathan Ronan’s mouth.

Edwin Carter got the information he wanted and also heard that dirty story that Jonathan Ronan made for the Carter Family. In fact, maybe it was not at all a dirty story. Maybe what Jonathan Ronan said was exactly what his respected grandfather thought for Jane and did to her.

Edwin Carter was worried about another thing, what if Jane believed Jonathan Ronan’s words…

Sienna Henry knocked on the door and interrupted Edwin Carter’s thoughts, "Chairman Carter, the meeting will begin soon."

Edwin Carter nodded and suppressed down his complicated mood, "Okay."

...

Jane came out of her home, walked out of the community and stopped a taxi, ready to rush to the studio to find Laura Ferdinand.

Today, she was fortunate. In the past, it was hard to find a taxi on this road. Today, she just came out of the community, and a taxi came here just like it was waiting for her.

Jane sat in the car, told the address, looked out of the window and thought about many things.

After returning to Jiangbei, she had met many people. She had made friends and she talked to them more than she talked in the last three years.

This kind of feeling was very good, it didn’t let her feel that she was a stranger. She didn’t feel like the same as before, when even in the crowd, she felt so lonely.

Just when Jane was in a trance, the car braked so hard that she was sitting in the back seat of the car without a safety belt, jumped forward, hit the back of the seat and bounced back.

She touched her aching head and was about to speak.

The driver in the front seat turned back made a gesture to stay quiet, and then he raised a paper and gave it to her to read.

—Miss Ronan, please don’t speak, read it quietly. You are equipped with GPS tracking eavesdroppers. Each action of you is being monitored. If you don’t believe it, you can take off the amulet you are wearing and open it.

"Why..." Why do I believe you?

Jane just opened her mouth but suddenly paused. She looked at the driver quietly. She wanted to know how he knew that she had a bug on her and even if he knew it why he told her?

But the taxi driver didn’t have any expression, and his eyes were even calmer, like a professionally trained person.

Jane bit her lips, and with a little uneasiness and contradiction, she took off the amulet that Janell had given her on her neck.

When she took it off, she held the amulet tightly in her hand. She was nervous to open it because she was afraid. Although her mind told her that she should not fully believe in Edwin Carter. But her emotion was biased towards Edwin Carter, and she could not stop herself from trusting him.

If there will be a tracking bug in the amulet, it will be obvious that it was Edwin Carter who took advantage of Janell and her love for Janell.

One can well imagine the despicable nature of that man.

Jane took a deep breath, opened the amulet, turned it over, in a pile of iron sand she found a very small instrument.

CHAPTER 307 – ASKING ABOUT THE PAST

Jane remembered that he jokingly asked Edwin Carter that if he was monitoring her and his answer was yes!

He also asked her if she wanted to catch him.

Her answer was also a - yes.

At that time, she thought that he was joking with her, and she felt some inexplicable happiness in her heart, but now she was scared.

Jane closed her eyes, clenched her fists and tried to calm down. After a while, she tied the amulet back to her neck.

This was the first gift that her daughter Janell had given to her. Even if the person behind her who asked Janell to do had hidden motives, she still wanted to keep the amulet.

After wearing the amulet, Jane said, "Please take me to R.F clothing studio in Fuxing Road."

Edwin Carter wanted to track and monitor her, so she let him do it.

She would like to see what he wants from a person like her who has no past!

After a while, the car stopped in front of Laura Ferdinand’s studio. The car stopped steadily, but she didn’t get off the car. She looked at the driver’s face quietly from the rearview mirror.

She wanted to know the driver’s real identity.

She wanted to know how he knew Edwin Carter had put a bug in the amulet and why he told her.

The drive seemed to know that Jane had these questions, he handed Jane a note and said, "Please get off and pay attention to safety."

Jane got out of the car and opened the note. There were two sentences - it doesn’t matter who I am and why I told you. You need to see the people around you.

Just two simple sentences, she read it but found nothing.

She looked back, but the taxi has disappeared, as if the person who just gave her the note has never appeared, it was just an illusion.

Jane calmed down and tried to make herself look happy then she walked to Laura Ferdinand’s studio.

Laura Ferdinand was talking with the designers about some design problems. She listened to them and didn’t disturb them.

Laura Ferdinand finished and looked back, "Jane, how long have you been here? Why don’t you call me?"

"Just arrived." Jane smiled.

Laura Ferdinand gave Jane a warm hug and said, "It’s dinner time now. Today, I’ll invite you to dinner."

"Okay." she nodded.

CHAPTER 308 – STRIVING TO RETRIEVE THE LOST PAST

Laura took Jane to a nearby hot pot restaurant they used to go to. In more than three years, the restaurant has been changed. There were new waiters and no one knew them.

Laura asked Jane for her opinion, ordered some dishes that she used to like, and then started the conversation.

She said, "Jane, how is it going between you and Mr. Carter?"

"Everything is fine."

If she hadn’t known anything by chance today, her and Edwin Carter’s relationship was really very good.

Every night they slept in the same bed with Janell.

Every morning, she opened her eyes and saw him sitting by the window reading the newspaper. Just like an ordinary couple’s life.

 

Laura said happily, "Jane, I’m glad to see you two getting along well with each other."

Jane smiled and said, "I didn’t remember the past. We can’t get along as before. It is my regret."

Jane came to Laura today to know about the past, so when she chatted, she mentioned the topic.

Laura said, "Jane, I can understand you. Just like the two of us are now, we are sitting together chatting, but I know you're not what you used to be, so I am also careful about talking to you."

Laura has always been straightforward. She always spoke her mind. Especially in front of Jane, she never felt the need to hide her true temperament. But now she was very careful about Jane. She was worried that her wrong word will scare Jane.

 

"You said that I’m your best friend, so take it easy. You can say what you want to say. Maybe it will help me to remember something."

"Oh, right." Laura nodded and said, "Ask me what you want to know. I promise I won’t lie."

"I really don’t know what I want to know." Jane smiled apologetically. "If you don’t dislike me, please tell me what I’ve done before. The more details you have, the better."

"How can I dislike you?" Laura said with a displeased look at Jane and said, "I can even dislike John Alex but I can’t dislike you."

When Laura said a word, Jane observed her eyes. When she spoke, she made eye contact with Jane without any flicker. It can be seen that she wasn’t lying.

Laura seriously told Jane everything that happened before. Where she lived, about her home, her primary school, middle school, and university. She said them clearly, and Jane stored everything in her mind, as well as the things about her pitiful and hateful sister Sophie Ronan.

If a good memory can’t help her get back to the past quickly, will Sophie Ronan be the breakthrough for her to restore the memory?

Jane had this idea in her mind, but she didn’t say anything.

She had a good time eating dinner with Laura Ferdinand. When the hot pot was half-eaten, Edwin Carter called to ask where she was. He knew where she was, but he pretended to ask her, and she did not tear it down.

When she went downstairs, she saw Edwin Carter waiting for her. He leaned against his very bright Bentley car and looked at someplace quietly. He was quite indulged in his thoughts.

People passing by him looked at him with the eyes full of admiration. However, no one has been favored by him, and they left disappointed.

"Mr. Carter, your Jane is here. What are you looking at?" Laura Ferdinand waved to Edwin Carter and spoke loudly.

Edwin Carter’s eyes moved to them, he hid the complex emotions in his eyes, nodded politely to Laura Ferdinand, and then looked at Jane, "Have you eaten?"

"Yes." Jane nodded.

Laura Ferdinand said very wisely, "It’s not early. My John Alex must be waiting for me to eat at home. So I need to go back, bye."

"Laura, be careful on the way," Jane said.

Laura Ferdinand just turned around to go back but after hearing Jane’s words of concern, she hugged her hard, "Jane, come on! I’m sure you can!"

"Thank you." Jane smiled at her.

After seeing Laura Ferdinand going far away, Edwin Carter reached out to hold Jane. He just touched her finger and his hand was shaken off by Jane.

Jane without saying a word to Edwin Carter took the lead to sit to the car.

Edwin Carter thought that she might have believed the dirty truth that Jonathan Ronan told her because he didn’t know that Jane has found out that he was secretly tracking her and eavesdropping.

CHAPTER 309 – SOFT HEARTED

Along the way, none of them spoke.

Jane looked directly at the front of the car, on the surface she looked calm, but her heart was completely tangled.

If it wasn’t for Janell, or if she didn’t have to hand over the gift of children’s day to Janell, she thought she might not follow Edwin Carter to go back to his home again.

Edwin Carter didn’t say anything. He didn’t know how to explain to Jane the things that Jonathan Ronan had told her. More precisely, he couldn’t explain anything to Jane.

Jane didn’t want to talk to him, and he let her be. Because if he did anything extra it will let Jane know that he was eavesdropping on her.

"Jane, is there something on your mind? You can tell me." In the past, if they had any misunderstanding, she always tried to break the silence when they were together and he always spoke after that but now things have changed.

Jane looked at the front, as if she had not heard Edwin Carter’s words.

Edwin Carter couldn’t ask again. When they reached home, he heard Jane’s voice, "Edwin, when we were together… everything was good between us?"

Jane didn’t know what was wrong with her.

While facing Jonathan Ronan, she has always been calm and rational, and her brain worked normally.

However, while facing Edwin Carter, her brain became muddled. She couldn’t make her heart hard for him, even it became difficult for her to distinguish between right and wrong so she often just starts blaming him.

She would even like to believe that Edwin Carter eavesdropped her just to understand her life, and to help her recover her lost memory as soon as possible.

 

But if it was like this, why he didn’t tell her clearly?

Whatever the reason was, she cannot avoid the fact that Edwin Carter violated her privacy and eavesdropped her without her permission.

"Jane," Edwin Carter pulled Jane forcibly into his arms and put her hand on his heart, "I don’t know how you feel in your heart. I only know that when you are not by my side, my heart is empty."

His heart was empty, so was hers.

It was just that she couldn’t let go of her bad feelings and also hasn’t figured out how to talk to him about tracking and eavesdropping.

She rubbed her hand against Edwin Carter’s chest, looked up at him and said, "Let’s go in. It’s so late, Janell must be waiting for us."

"Okay." If Jane didn’t want to continue the topic, then Edwin Carter couldn’t force her. He took her hand again, and Jane didn’t stop him this time. He held it tightly with the intention of never letting her go.

When they came back home, Lucas was playing with Janell, they were playing a very childish game, hide and seek but Lucas was playing with Janell without a trace of boredom.

Jane saw such a cold boy accompanied Janell to play hide and seek, she couldn’t help looking again at him. She has been living in this villa for a while, but she had never heard a word from Lucas.

If she had never heard from Janell that brother Lucas can speak a lot, she must have thought that he really can’t speak.

The boy was indifferent and defensive to everyone. Only when he was with Janell, one can see the tenderness in his eyes and he occasionally smiled.

Janell has no brother and sister by her side, but she has a good brother with her, Jane was at ease to see them like this.

CHAPTER 310 – NEW CLOTHES

"Dad, big Jane..." Janell was hiding behind the sofa but didn’t care that Lucas was still looking for her. She got up and rushed to them.

Edwin Carter stretched his arms to hug Janell, but Janell went into Jane’s arms, leaving his outstretched hands empty.

"Janell, did you have dinner?" Jane asked in a soft voice.

"Yes, I have eaten so much." Janell touched her small belly, and point to the side where her Lucas was standing, "We ate together."

"Very good." Jane smiled politely at Lucas again, "thank you for accompanying Janell."

Lucas didn’t answer.

Janell looked at Lucas, smiled at him and said in a soft voice, "brother you can sleep, I also want to sleep."

After hearing Janell’s order, Lucas responded and nodded to go upstairs to his room.

 

Jane rubbed Janell’s head and said, "Janell, brother Lucas is very good, isn’t he?"

"Yeah!" Janell nodded repeatedly and said naively, "Brother plays with me, eats with me. I really like him."

Jane smiled contentedly and said, "If you like brother, you should treat him as your own brother, okay?"

"Okay." Janell didn’t understand Jane’s real meaning but cleverly nodded.

The mother and daughter chatted together and completely ignored the Edwin Carter behind them.

Although he has been completely ignored, still he had no complaints, and there was nothing more pleasant for him than having his wife and daughter around him at the same time.

Jane helped Janell take a bath, put her on the bed, and said gently, "Janell, play with dad for a while, I have to do something else."

Edwin Carter stopped Jane, "Jane-"

Jane smiled at him and said, "I am just going to iron Janell’s clothes, I will be back in a moment."

He knew that she was angry with him, so he was so worried that she would never return.

 

In fact, she didn’t know why, but she couldn’t get angry with him.

Jane went to collect the dry clothes, ironed them and came back to the room.

In the room, Janell was happily rolling over Edwin Carter’s body, and laughing at the same time. She looked very happy. Jane saw this father and daughter and couldn’t move her eyes for a while, and her heart softened.

Jane thought of many things.

She thought about Edwin Carter, how he helped her in these days for treating her drug addiction, he took care of her. His intentions were so obvious, why she cannot see.

No matter how busy he stayed every day, he always spent time with his daughter.

How he can be such a heinous man who needed his daughter but not his wife that Jonathan Ronan described?

Jane took a deep breath and said, "Janell, I have made some new clothes for you. Would you like to have a try?"

"Yes!" Janell rolled down from Edwin Carter’s body and replied happily.

Edwin Carter took the clothes from Jane’s hands and said, "You have done a lot of hard work. I’ll help her change. I can’t let you do everything. Janell will think that her father is useless."

Edwin Carter skillfully took off Janell’s pajamas and put on the skirt.

The princess skirt made up of pink fabric had no special features. Jane just tied the belt with embroidered butterflies on it, and instantly it became very graceful.

"Janell, do you like it?" Jane asked cautiously. After asking, she found that she was so nervous that if her daughter didn’t like the first gift that she gave her, then?

CHAPTER 311 – GOING TO KYOTO ALONE (PART 1)

Edwin Carter hurriedly helped Jane and exaggerated, "Wow, it’s so beautiful. It’s the best princess skirt Janell has ever worn."

Janell rolled in the bed and said in a flattering way, "I want to see the mirror."

She was a little elf. She was looking good or not she cannot decide on her father’s words. She needed to verify it. She knew that dad really likes big Jane so much. She was not sure, maybe in order to help big Jane, he has told her a lie.

However, after looking at the beautiful self in the mirror, Janell was very happy. She turned back and kissed Jane’s face, "Thank you, big Jane, I like it very much."

"You’re welcome." Jane kissed Janell back.

Jane was more excited and happier to be praised by Janell for her work than she was when she stood on the international stage and held the best new fashion designer’s award.

Janell liked this dress and also liked the other two. She also agreed to her father’s words. It seemed that these clothes were really best and the most beautiful she has ever worn. She didn’t want to take them off, so when she fell asleep Jane changed her clothes and put on her pajamas.

Jane looked at Janell’s face and her cute pouted lips. She kissed her daughter again. Whenever she looked Janell as her own child, she felt so happy that she couldn’t describe her inner satisfaction.

Janell was sleeping and without this small noisy kid, the atmosphere of the room became quiet. The two persons lying on the left and right sides of Janell were looking at the ceiling at the same time. They wanted to say a lot to each other, but they didn’t know how to open their mouths.

After a long time, Edwin Carter turned over and moved Janell to the side. He lay down beside Jane and dragged her to his arms.

"Edwin Carter, what are you doing?" Jane struggled, but she couldn’t get rid of him. She shook her fist and hit it hard on his chest.

"I just want to hold you." He wanted to hold her, to let her body temperature fill the hole in his heart.

Jane heard his low voice and suddenly had some heartache. She put down her fist silently, snuggled up in his arms and listened to his strong heartbeat.

"Edwin Carter, are.."

Are you hiding something from me? If you tell me honestly, I will forgive you.

Jane wanted to say it to Edwin Carter, but she couldn’t.

"Jane, just trust me!"

No matter what happens, just trust me, trust me that I can handle everything… trust me that I can protect you and our daughter!

Edwin Carter wanted to say this to her, but he can’t say it. He didn’t want to add more trouble to this story. He decided that when everything is fine he’ll tell Jane the truth. At that time it will be easy for her to believe him.

"Humm." Jane hummed a syllable out of her throat. She trusted him again. She believed that he did things for her good and that he would not harm her like Jonathan Ronan.

He had already told her that when those things happened three years ago, he was on a business trip and when he came back everything was already over. He didn’t know the fact that the child was delivered Caesarean forcefully and he had been looking for her for so many years.

So she was willing to trust him.

She had made a decision to trust Edwin Carter, but she cannot sit idly. She can’t rely on Edwin Carter for everything. She decided to go out bravely and find her memory.

…

The next day, Jane quietly took out the tracker hidden in the amulet and left it at home. She flew to Kyoto alone to find her past memories.

She wanted to see more of the past things. She was not sure about what she can find in Kyoto, but she thought that maybe her home, that place will be able to touch some sensitive corners of her heart and mind and maybe she will remember some past memories.

...

Edwin Carter was in the conference room when he received the news that Jane has gone to Kyoto alone and heard that Jane had already boarded the plane, he became really angry.

In the conference room, many people were the old subordinates of Edwin Carter. In the business, Edwin Carter has always been the in-charge of strategizing. No matter how big and serious matter he encountered, he could always handle it calmly.

It was the first time that everyone had seen Edwin Carter losing his temper.

In fact, he didn’t do anything, but everyone could feel his rage. It seemed that his anger will burn down the building.

Edwin Carter glanced coldly at the person who reported the information to him and said angrily, "Luis George, your people are not able to do things. Do it by yourself. Sienna Henry, now arrange a special plane to fly to Kyoto. Also, contact the airport over there in Kyoto. No matter what method you have to use, I need to keep her safe."

He hired so many people to follow Jane, but the people informed him when Jane had already boarded the plane. He really wanted to tear those people into pieces.

What if...

Edwin Carter didn’t have the courage to think about any eventuality.

At the moment, he just wanted to catch up with Jane as fast as possible, so he could cover her under his wing, to not let her suffer any harm.

...

CHAPTER 312 – GOING TO KYOTO ALONE (PART 2)

The weather in Kyoto was not as good as in Jinagbei, this was Jane’s first feeling after getting off the plane.

Jiangbei’s weather was also hot but there often blew sea breeze, so it won’t feel too hot. Kyoto felt sultry, as if it wanted to evaporate people as water vapor.

She didn’t remember anything and felt as if she came to Kyoto Airport for the first time. The interior and layout of the airport were similar to that of many large international airports, and there were many peoples.

She walked quickly with the group of people who got off the plane to the exit gate, but before long, she was stopped by the security personnel of the airport.

Jane didn’t know if the personnel thought that she was too stupid, because the reason for intercepting her was so silly. They said that there were dangerous articles in her checked baggage, so she has to cooperate with them for investigation.

C’mon!

She had a small backpack with her that has one suit, some cosmetics, and nothing else. How can she carry dangerous goods?

Jane already had an idea that after going to Kyoto someone will try to stop her from finding her memory, so she had a plan.

 

She made an excuse to go to the bathroom. The security personal thought that this reason can be accepted. Besides, there was no window in the bathroom, and they were guarding at the door, she can’t escape even if she has wings, so the security personnel let her go.

When she came into the bathroom, she quickly changed her clothes, put on a high ponytail, and took out cosmetics to do makeup. She came out when she felt that the security person won't be able to recognize her.

As expected, she came out of the bathroom and walked in front of the two security guards, but they only glanced at her and no one doubted.

After walking out for a while, Jane quickened her pace. She wanted to escape before the security guards found something unusual. As long as she gets out of the airport, then it will become as difficult for the people who wanted to stop her as like looking for a needle in a haystack.

CHAPTER 313 – ANOTHER MEETING WITH SOPHIE RONAN (PART 1)

Kyoto, the capital of a country, was very prosperous. She looked up and there were skyscrapers everywhere.

After getting off the taxi, she looked around and could not find the direction. She could not imagine that she had grew up in this city.

Streets, buildings, pedestrians, everything looked strange as if she had never lived in this city.

Jane took a deep breath, raised a smile and told herself, "Jane, it doesn’t matter, everything will be okay."

She just needs to work hard and gradually she will be able to regain the past memory.

Her goal to come to Kyoto was very clear. She went to find her hateful sister that Laura said. Before coming here, Jane had found a way to contact Sophie Ronan. She told Sophie Ronan that she wanted to meet her, and she also agreed without any hesitation.

"Sophie Ronan..."

Jane read the name several times in her heart. It seemed that she had some impression, but she still can’t remember the little things about Sophie Ronan.

Jane heard from Laura Ferdinand’s mouth and also found some information on the Internet that Sophie Ronan’s face had been disfigured and she had been mentally disturbed. Later, she recovered from her mental illness and began a new life. At present, she held some shares in an emerging company in Kyoto.

 

If Jane hadn’t listened to too many bad things about Sophie Ronan before and had just listened to her later stories, Jane would have considered Sophie Ronan as a very inspirational girl.

Jane shook her head, to not think about what Sophie did in the past, she just hoped to get some information from her.

Every building around looked the same, and Jane can’t find her company via mobile-phone navigation. So Jane had to send a message to Sophie Ronan - I’m here, but I can’t find your company.

She sent the message and soon received a call from Sophie Ronan very soon. Her voice was similar to Jane’s imagination, very gentle and pleasant.

She said, "Tell me your position. I’ll find you."

Jane looked around, reported the name of a prominent shop on the left, then hung up the phone and waited for Sophie.

...

After hanging up the phone, Sophie didn’t immediately went downstairs to pick Jane. She walked to the window of the office and looked at a convenience store downstairs.

CHAPTER 314 – ANOTHER MEETING WITH SOPHIE RONAN (PART 2)

On the right side of the convenience store, there was a tall woman wearing a cap, white shirt, and jeans. The woman was looking around. She seemed to get familiar with her surroundings.

Even a few years later, the woman still looked so good, tall and slender, with good skin. She looked like a young girl who just came out of the university, no one can think that she was the mother of a few years old child.

The woman who should die three years ago, the woman who has won countless times from her. The woman she thought that she would never see again in her life. She didn’t expect that she would come back alive, and even took the initiative to contact her.

Sophie started a new life, and made some achievements in work and tried to gradually forget her unforgettable past. As long as no one reminded her, she has almost forgotten what she has experienced in the past.

 

But just when she was about to forget everything completely, the fugitive Jonathan Ronan came back with the one who should have died.

Jane was the last person Sophie wanted to meet. Jane’s face and presence reminded her how miserable her past has been. She didn’t want to see Jane, but she still agreed to meet her.

Sophie wanted to see how Jane would look like without her past memory.

Lost all memory?

Sophie Ronan narrowed her eyes slightly and expressed some doubt. Jane was smart. Maybe she hadn’t lost her past memory at all and she was just acting.

Three years ago, Jane had a car accident. She died and her baby has been saved.

When Sophie heard this news, she was in the mental hospital. At that moment, she was so happy.

 

The woman who has been blessed by the God of fortune, the woman who has been much luckier than her, also had such a bad luck.

At that time, she looked up and laughed for half an hour.

But when she was happy, she also felt extremely sad at the same time. Suddenly, some tense emotions were released and her heart became empty… Christopher Greyson, Jane, and she grew up together. Now they all left, leaving her alone.

At that time, she realized the meaning of the sentence that people often said.

Life is short, so one should enjoy the present.

Life is only a few decades. You strive for more, but eventually it becomes nothing.

After understanding this truth, Sophie thought that God treated her well, destroyed her appearance, but still gave her a life to live. Christopher Greyson and Jane were young, but they were dead. Only she was alive, and only the living can continue to change the world and live the life they want.

But why did Jonathan Ronan bring Jane back when she just thought that everything was getting better?

Why did they come to ruin her peaceful life?

Jonathan Ronan, who had ruined her life, was so shameless that he contacted her, called her to come back to him, so that father and daughter can bring back Ronan’s family lost glory.

Huhu...

Ridiculous.

Only that shameless scum can say such a thing. He may have forgotten the sordid things he had done to her, but she couldn’t forget.

However, she did not refuse, she agreed to Jonathan Ronan’s request. She just wanted to see for how long Jonathan Ronan could have his moments. She wanted to see it with her own eyes, to make sure that he cannot leave any room to go back.

...

Jane waited for a long time and finally, Sophie Ronan came to her.

Jane didn’t find any photo after her plastic surgery on the Internet, but she recognized her at first sight when she appeared.

From Laura’s words, Jane came to know that she grew up with Sophie Ronan and they lived together for so many years. She was familiar with her so much. She didn’t need to look at her face she could feel that the woman was the one she was looking for.

"Jane, after so many years of absence, you are still so beautiful, still the same as before, you have not changed at all."

Like the one who met her lost sister after years, Sophie greeted Jane and hid her true emotions well, which were completely invisible to ordinary people.

"Hello!" Jane nodded.

She was not sure about her and Sophie’s relationship because she didn’t totally believe Laura’s words but before retrieving her memory she needed to keep a certain distance from everyone.

CHAPTER 315 – BACK TO THE OLD HOUSE (PART 1)

"Jane, we are sisters. Why are you so strange and polite to me?"

After the plastic surgery, her facial expression was a little stiff and her smile was very unnatural. She didn’t look as good as she looked in the old photos that Jane found on the Internet.

Sisters?

Is she really a good sister?

Jane believed Laura Ferdinand’s words, but Sophie’s expression looked sincere. Jane really didn’t know who she can trust.

"Let’s go. I’ll treat you to dinner." Sophie said.

"I have something to ask you for. I should invite you for dinner."

Sophie thought for a moment and smiled, "Well, no problem."

"This restaurant has existed for years. We used to come here when we were at school. You can see that there are many restaurants in the row, but this restaurant still has a large number of diners." Sophie said.

"Yeah..."

Maybe they often come here to eat, but Jane cannot remember anything, she couldn’t even feel anything about the place.

Sophie said a lot about the history of the restaurant. Although Jane was not interested in it, she still listened carefully. It was good to get a trace of any past memory. So in the whole meal, it was Sophie Ronan who talked and Jane just nodded occasionally to show that she was listening to her.

 

Jane paid the bill and Sophie said, "I heard Jonathan Ronan saying that you have lost all your past memory and I know the purpose of this meeting, so if you need my help, just say it."

Sophie’s attitude was so frank, but Jane had some hesitations. If Laura Ferdinand’s words were true, Sophie Ronan should hate her deeply and should not entertain her with such a friendly attitude.

When Jane tried to contact Sophie and asked her to meet, she thought that Sophie would refuse. But she didn’t expect that she would treat her in such a friendly manner.

What happened to Sophie, she has changed? Or she is just acting to be good? Or, Laura Ferdinand cheated her?

Jane didn’t know the past and she couldn’t give the answer to these questions. To confirm their authenticity, she just has to try her best to find the past.

Jane thought for a moment and said, "I want to go back to our home where we used to live. Can you take me?"

Sophie immediately agreed, "Of course, no problem."

They came out of the restaurant together. Sophie went to pick up the car and Jane waited for her. When Jane looked around, a familiar tall and straight figure appeared that was not far from her eyes.

Edwin Carter?

CHAPTER 316 – BACK TO THE OLD HOUSE (PART 2)

Jane was a little flustered and hurriedly pulled the cap on her head. She turned around and hid behind a big tree beside the road.

Hiding behind the tree, she looked again carefully. She saw clearly that the man in the crowd ahead was Edwin Carter.

His clothes were the same as before, a white shirt with black trousers- his ordinary dressing. But because he was too dazzling, even in the crowd, and even at a distance, she recognized him at a glance.

Edwin Carter’s face looked very calm, but Jane could see that his expressions were not the same as his usual peace. He seemed worried, but he had controlled himself very well. No one could see his inner tension without careful observation.

Why does Edwin Carter come here?

Why is he chasing her?

Does he want to help her find her past memory?

Why he is worried, is he worried about her safety and if he couldn’t find her, would he be more anxious?

But she can’t rely on him for everything. She was the only one who can help herself to get back the memory of the past. Edwin Carter can’t help her.

 

When Jane was watching Edwin Carter and fell into a trance, Sophie Ronan drove the car and stopped at her side, "Jane, get in the car."

Jane looked at Edwin Carter again, bit her lips and got into her car.

Edwin Carter was very kind to her, but she couldn’t rely on Edwin Carter all the time. She also needed to grow up to let him have a shoulder to rely on when he felt tired.

Sophie drove her car and arrived at her destination in more than half an hour.

The house where the Ronan family used to live, at that house two people died in a few months, one jumped off a building and committed suicide, the other was being killed and both deaths were terrifying.

After Christopher Greyson’s murder, the police also found out about their mother’s suicide.

 

The news spread out, and even the servants of Ronan’s family told many things, so their house became a haunted house.

It has been said that every night a woman jumped from the top of the building, and it has been repeating every night since that time.

This news came out and it caused a great sensation.

Pedestrians and vehicles prefer to circle far than to pass by their door. Because they considered it as a haunted house. The house was empty, but it can’t be sold or rented. And it would be foolish to think that any servant will come here to take care of the house.

They haven’t been here for three years. The courtyard was full of weeds. It was really like the haunted house mostly described in the ghost movie.

They stood outside the gate and looked at the gate. Jane’s feet suddenly became numb, and her mood suddenly became inexplicably upset.

"This is where we used to live. Do you remember?" Sophie asked.

Jane shook her head and nodded again. She couldn’t remember it, but she felt familiar. It was probably her subconscious that still had an impression of this place.

In a trance, Jane saw a middle-aged woman standing in front of her eyes and looking at her with a smile, "Jane, you are finally back. Do you know how long mom has been waiting for you?"

"Mom?"

"Jane, mom miss you so much."

"Mom, I miss you too."

Jane rushed to catch the woman, but the woman disappeared. There was nothing in front of her.

Sophie asked, "Jane, can you see mom? Is it your fantasy? Or because our mom died with a remaining grievance and her soul has always been here?"

Jane didn’t answer, but there were some pictures fleeting in her mind. A women sometimes looked at her and laughed, sometimes she hid in the room and cried, and she saw the coffin.

These pictures, like many times before, were clearly in her mind, but when she tried to think more everything disappeared from her mind.

Jane took a deep breath, clenched her fist, pretended to be calm and said, "Can I go in and have a look?"

"If you want to go in, you have to go alone not with me." Sophie said hesitatingly.

When their mother committed suicide, Sophie witnessed the tragedy at that time. After that, she killed Christopher Greyson here. She never wanted to come to this place. Today, she came with Jane, because she wanted to know if Jane had really forgotten her past.

CHAPTER 317 – REMEMBERED THE PAST (PART 1)

Jane opened the rusty door and walked in carefully.

"Jane, you are back!"

In a trance, the familiar gentle and kind voice rang again in Jane’s ear. Jane stopped and looked around, but she saw nothing, and there was no sound in her ear.

Jane went inside, reached the main house, opened the door, and there was a thick and pungent smell of mildew. There were spider webs everywhere in the house.

Jane stood at the door and suddenly the room full of cobwebs changed and she saw a young woman holding a little girl in there.

The little girl’s face was muddy and dirty like a kitten, but the woman didn’t dislike it at all. She took the towel and gently wiped the little girl’s face.

"Jane, the servant just has cleaned the floor. Why are you bringing back the mud?"

"Jane, look in the mirror to see your dirty face."

"Jane, girls should be quiet and not mischievous."

"Jane..."

The gentle voice of a woman filled Jane’s ears and warmed her heart. Her mother loved cleanliness. She used to help the servants clean the house. The floor was wiped over and over again, and the wooden floor became as bright as a mirror.

Mom?

Unconsciously, Jane thought of these things in her mind, thought of her mother and recalled her special love for cleanliness.

She thought about her mother and remembered when she was young she always liked to cuddle in her mother’s arms, and her mother always taught her somethings like girls should be gentle, beautiful and clean.

 

She could hear her mother’s voice clearly and see her young face clearly.

Many familiar scenes poured into Jane’s mind.

For the first time, she herself remembered her name and how her mother used to call her gently and affectionately. But she only found back the memory of her mother when her mother was young and when she was a child. She still couldn’t remember how her mother died.

"Mom..." Jane closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "I came back to meet you."

Jane walked inside and went upstairs to her mother’s room. The room had been occupied by spider webs and dust. There was no mother.

Mother hiding in the room crying was also a picture of the past, and it has been stored among Jane’s deepest memories of the mind. Her mother was no longer there.

But how her mother died? Is it really related to Jonathan Ronan as Laura Ferdinand said?

Jane still can’t remember, but she was not in a hurry. She already retrieved some memories. It was a good start. She believed that if she tried harder, she can remember all the past memories.

Jane continued to wander in this house full of spider webs and dust and continued to search for memories, but it had no effect.

CHAPTER 318 – REMEMBERED THE PAST (PART 2)

At the end of the corridor on the second floor, there was a utility room. The door of the room was closed. And there was a nameplate on the door, so she knew that it was a storeroom.

She stood in front of the door for a while. After several considerations, she raised her hand and twisted the doorknob and opened the door.

There were no windows in the room. It was completely dark and full of all kinds of sundries. The smell of mildew here was stronger than outside. Jane pressed the button to turn on the light on the wall but there was no water and electricity in this house.

Jane opened the door completely to let light came in from outside. She walked inside and looked around. Before long, the door was suddenly closed. She heard the sound of the door being locked and in a second no light left in the room.

After being trapped in the elevator of the hospital for a night, the claustrophobia and darkness became Jane’s biggest fears.

She immediately ran back to the door and tried to open the door, but the door was locked from the outside and she could not open it.

The door couldn’t be opened, the room was dark, and the past terrible experience stimulated every nerve of Jane’s brain.

She knocked at the door and shouted for help loudly, "Is there anyone who can open the door and let me come out..."

She cried for a long time until her voice became hoarse, but no one opened the door for her.

She felt like she went back to the night when she was trapped in the elevator a few years ago. She shouted for long, but no one came to save her. She spent nearly half the night in the narrow and claustrophobic elevator.

 

If those people had let her stay a little longer she may have died because there was no oxygen in the elevator.

Once again, at this house, she experienced the same thing and there was still no one around her. Jane’s fear can be imagined.

She curled up in the corner, held her legs in her hands, shivering, shaking her upper teeth and knocking her lower teeth.

She lost the ability to think.

She didn’t know after how long, the door was kicked open, the door fell to the ground with a bang, the dust was flying, and due to bright light some of the darkness of the room decreased.

"Jane!"

Jane heard someone calling her name, a familiar warm, low and deep voice. Undoubtedly, the best voice she had ever heard in her life.

She opened her mouth and tried to respond to him, but she found that her whole body’s strength has been gone and she could not even call out his name.

Edwin Carter quickly glanced into the room, walked to her side, and hugged her trembling body, "Jane, don’t be afraid, everything is okay."

After being held in Edwin Carter’s arms, Jane found that her body has already softened, but she was still too afraid.

She didn’t remember much about the two of them, but at this moment she decided that she will no longer doubt his intentions for her, and no longer hesitate to think about his inner feelings for her. If he had hidden motives for her, he would have never been able to give her such a sense of security.

She can’t remember the identity of being his wife before, but she could feel that her heart must be very close to this man.

Such an excellent, considerate and gentleman, how can people in life can be indifferent to him?

Jane raised her head from her arms. She looked at Edwin Carter’s worried and distressed eyes, and her heart ached.

She said, "Edwin Carter, I’m sorry! I won’t let you worry again." No matter if she can remember their past or not, she wanted to be his wife, she wanted to hold his hand to never let him go.

"It’s okay. Let’s go back first." Edwin Carter kissed her forehead, picked her up and strode out.

Jane sat in the car, looked back at the place where she had lived.

The sky gradually darkened, no one lived in it for a long time, and it was full of weeds. This small building gave a miserable feeling.

When Edwin Carter shoved Jane into the car, he told the driver to drive and didn’t say a word to Jane.

His eyes were gloomy and he seemed very angry.

CHAPTER 319 – UNEXPECTED REPENTANCE

Standing in the dark, Sophie Ronan watched Edwin Carter taking Jane away, watched their car going far away and inexplicably tears appeared in her eyes.

Even after so many years, Edwin Carter’s love for Jane was the same as that of that year, maybe even more than that of that year. She could see it from his tense appearance.

Jane just came to Kyoto and Edwin Carter also came here.

In the past few years, when Jane was not there, there was Edwin Carter everywhere in the TV, Newspaper and other media platforms. He had never appeared on the TV before and never faced the camera. For the world, he was a mysterious man. But for Jane, he changed himself, his priorities, his habits, and his lifestyle.

A woman who gets such a man in her life, even after giving her life for him many times it won’t be able enough to pay back for such a blessing!

 

Sophie Ronan often thought that if she had worked harder and would not have come back home to fight for that scum Christopher Greyson, then all the gentleness, care, and love that Jane has got might be her fate.

"That man can never be yours. It would be a vain attempt. It would be better for you to pay attention to me." A voice fell into Sophie’s ears, and she had been pulled into a man's arm by a strong force. She looked up into the evil eyes of the man.

Sophie Ronan raised her soft hand and patted him twice on the chest. With a smile, she said, "Mr. Tyrion, you are a nobleman, a proud son of heaven. How can a dirty woman like me dare to think about you?"

"It’s not that you cannot dare to think about me. It’s just that your heart doesn’t know its place. In the past, when Jane and Christopher Greyson were together, you robbed Christopher Greyson. After that, Jane married Edwin Carter, and now you want to rob Edwin Carter. In fact, you don’t love these men. You are only used to robbing Jane’s things."

 

Mr. Tyrion looked at Sophie Ronan and spoke out her thoughts without any mercy. They had worked together for several years. He thought he understood this woman.

"Ha ha..." Sophie laughed.

A person who believes in his own self don’t need to give any explanations, other people ultimately believe in him. A person who doesn’t believe in his own self, no matter how much he explains, other people won’t believe in him!

"Don’t you admit it?" Mr. Tyrion smiled, raised Sophie’s chin, and said, "Then, why you just do that?"

Sophie patted him on the chest again and said, "It’s none of your business."

Mr. Tyrion was just a business partner of Sophie Ronan. She didn’t consider it necessary to tell him what she was thinking.

CHAPTER 320 – SUDDEN REPENTANCE

Jane has been stubborn since she was a child. If she had made up her mind to do something no one could stop her. Because of her stubborn temper, she has been punished many times.

In the past, whenever Jane made a mistake, Jonathan Ronan locked her here in this room. And just after admitting her mistake she can come out. Jane was so stubborn and didn’t know how to say something nice to Jonathan Ronan, so she often spent time here.

She often stayed longer, even a whole night, and no one could save her. This room should be a nightmare of Jane’s childhood, so Sophie Ronan wanted to see if Jane really didn’t remember the past. She had no other thoughts than this.

In the past, Sophie Ronan thought that everything that Jane has should belong to her, which was due to her jealousy but now she was only envious of Edwin Carter’s care for Jane.

 

Mr. Tyrion grabbed Sophie Ronan’s hand and said with a smile, "Sophie Ronan, what makes you a maverick in front of me?"

"I dare not." Sophie Ronan shook off his hand, turned around and walked away, saying, "Mr. Tyrion, we are just partners in our work. Please keep this in mind, and I will remember what kind of woman I am."

If people experience too much, they can see thoroughly and understand too many things, including fame and benefits. For them living a good life becomes the most important thing.

Sophie Ronan was one of them.

After wandering around the edge of death, looking at the people around her, dead, injured, walking unconsciously, she understood some truth.

Life is really short. Enjoy yourself while you are alive.

 

Try to be the best you can be, instead of conspiring against others and snatching the things that don’t belong to you.

Mr. Tyrion looked at Sophie’s back as she walked farther away, and the smile in her eyes also disappeared leaving only a gloomy image.

He also didn’t know when the urge to get this woman came to his mind.

The feeling was so strong that he couldn’t control it. The urge of getting her was like a wild horse without its rein. He couldn’t stop it.

What’s more hateful was that the woman, that has been trampled by men, that has been put into a mental hospital, and whose face has been destroyed, even can’t see him.

A woman who has been trampled on by countless people still pretended to be out of his reach.

Since the collapse of Greyson’s and the origin of his business, many famous ladies in Kyoto approached him. He was a businessman, more accurately a shrewd businessman.

Although today’s society was enlightened, still if you can make money, no one cares about your birth status. In fact, it doesn’t matter on your face. When you turn around, those people must point out that he’s an illegitimate son who hasn’t been recognized, and who even didn’t know his father.

So when a famous lady in Kyoto approached him, he accepted it.

As for Sophie Ronan, he also wanted her.

From the past achievements of Sophie Ronan, it seemed she also had some thoughts about him, but she just wanted to give him a hard time. She wants to hang his appetite. He was really interested in her. So if she wanted to play with him, he would let her play.

...

After a long time, Edwin Carter still had a gloomy face. He didn’t say a word and didn’t even look at Jane’s face.

Jane observed Edwin Carter’s gloomy face, the blue tendons on his forehead, the clenched fists, and his strong patience, her heart was aching again. She squeezed to Edwin Carter’s side, reached out and held Edwin Carter’s fist softly, "Edwin Carter..."

Jane wanted Edwin Carter to burst out his inner passion, if he wanted to, he can scold her. She just didn’t want him to bear it silently.

His silence was hurting her.

But Edwin Carter still ignored her and said nothing. His face became more difficult to read. It seemed that his anger that had been accumulating for several years was about to burst out.

Edwin Carter ignored her. Jane also didn’t know what to do. She wanted to take back her hand, but Edwin Carter held her hand tightly.

Jane looked up at him, but he still ignored her. She pursed her lips and sat quietly beside him.

Until they came back to the hotel and the door has been closed.

Edwin Carter turned, pressed Jane on the door and a hot and domineering strong kiss fell on her lips.

Edwin Carter was tall and strong, and Jane was weak, actually, in terms of height, body shape, and physical strength Jane was far behind Edwin Carter.

CHAPTER 321 – WHEN I’M WITH YOU, I FEEL SAFE (PART 1)

 

In front of Edwin Carter’s strong aura, she was unable to resist. It was not that she didn’t have the strength to resist, but her lips were also blocked by him. She could not even utter a word.

His kiss was very domineering, very strong, possessed a kind of ferocity that has been suppressed for a long time.

Jane subconsciously wanted to resist and get rid of Edwin Carter, but his strength was so great and his kiss was so domineering that Jane couldn’t escape at all, so she could only produce some sounds to show her protest.

Edwin Carter swallowed the little voice that she produced from her throat, she kissed her even fiercely, like to vent all his sorrows of these three years – which he had carried with arrogance, with anger, and even with unwillingness.

Why doesn't she remember him?

Why did she disappear disappeared from their happy life and why she forgot all their past?

Edwin Carter’s all emotions were poured into this kiss, which was getting deeper and more vicious, even stained with the smell of blood, and gradually his hands became uneasy and moved inch by inch under Jane’s shirt.

His palms were hot, but Jane’s skin looked cold like ice.

She was still struggling hard. The strength of Jane’s hand was too small for Edwin Carter, but at this moment he felt as her hands were hammering on his heart, giving pain that was way worse to bear.

"Enough!" All of a sudden, Edwin Carter roared and produced a sound, like a wild animal, like a silver bottle breaking suddenly, like thousands of arrows leaving the string.

Since Jane met Edwin Carter, she has never heard Edwin Carter speaking so loudly. He was clearly roaring, but there was lingering sadness in his voice. He made the struggling Jane suddenly forget the struggle, she just became scared, confused and sad.

She looked at Edwin Carter.

Edwin Carter also looked at her, his eyes were heavy, as if there were thousands of words, but he didn’t say a word.

Missing, wanting, blaming, cherishing... there were so many feelings in his eyes, but there was no sound.

 

All of a sudden, Jane felt some difficulty in breathing. She just wanted to hold him, to tell him that she cared about what he has suffered. At this time, Edwin Carter suddenly lowered her head and gave her a kiss on her forehead. It was as gentle as a breeze.

Jane did not resist, but felt Edwin Carter’s kiss slowly moving from her forehead to the tip of the nose, then lips, and finally fell to her ear.

"Look at me, Jane!"

His low, hoarse voice fell in Jane’s ear like spring wind and summer rain.

For a moment, her heart beat like thunder.

Jane couldn’t say anything. She just made a sound, "hmm."

The man seemed to be satisfied with his performance and smiled softly in her ear.

It was really sexy and intoxicating.

CHAPTER 322 – WHEN I’M WITH YOU, I FEEL SAFE (PART 2)

Edwin Carter kissed her again! No longer ferocious, it was just that he was bullying her. Jane was also no longer rebellious, she just followed him closely.

The shirt was torn open, and her white skin was exposed but his hot hands covered it, so it was not cold.

Before coming to Kyoto, she thought a lot about the past and the future. But now she thought and felt funny.

She liked him, no matter the past or future, no matter she can regain her memory or not. Even if she gets a life again, she will still choose to like him——

This fact was so obvious, so natural, just like the truth.

Isn’t that enough?

Jane reached out and tightly wrapped her hand around Edwin Carter’s neck - the two people’s breath was anxious and sticky that they were closely connected, but she didn’t feel enough.

Not enough, she wanted to get closer, wanted to enter into his heart, wanted to pry into his past, and above all wanted to be with him like this until the end of time!

 

The weather was so hot in summer that it seemed to melt people.

Jane tightly held Edwin Carter. He led her to climb to the clouds. When she was in his deep love, she opened her mouth and spoke softly, "Edwin Carter, I like you."

I really like you! I love you!

She couldn’t imagine how she spent the days without him.

Edwin Carter didn’t reply to Jane with any words, his actions gave his reply.

...

Night was slowly falling, and the love between the two of them sparked up.

She didn’t know for how long they have been like this, she felt as if it has been several centuries, but she also felt it short enough to blink.

When Jane felt that her bones were about to fall apart, all the turbulent movements calmed down.

 

She was very tired and sleepy. She could sleep in a moment, but she didn’t let herself fell asleep. She wanted to listen to Edwin Carter’s heartbeat, talk to him, and listen to his voice.

Edwin Carter held Jane in his arms, stroked her back with big hands, and kissed her forehead slowly, "tired?"

Tired!

I’m exhausted. She has never felt so tired.

But how can she answer such a shameful question?

This man was really bad enough. Usually, he looked noble and elegant, but when he took off his clothes, he became a hungry wolf, which made her helpless.

Edwin Carter looked down, put her in front of his eyes and asked, "Jane, is it so tiring that you cannot speak?"

Jane put her head on his bare chest, shook her head, and said softly, "No."

"Not tired?"

"Rascal!"

Jane pinched him hard. What this bad man wants to do?

Why is he asking such things, didn’t he know that she is shy?

"Jane…"

"Huh?"

"Nothing. Go to sleep." He rubbed her on the back and coaxed her to sleep like a child.

Jane was really tired of his tossing and soon fell asleep in his arms.

After looking at her sleeping peacefully, Edwin Carter’s heart became indescribably softened. It was really good to have her and to hold her to sleep!

He wished it for day and night. He waited for more than three years for Jane to return, and finally, he was able to rub her into his body to love dearly.

Finally, he felt that she was really close to him. At that moment, he was sure that his Jane had come back. Some moments ago, he heard her saying that she liked him.

At that time, he didn’t respond to her. Because her words made his blood boil, he did not know how to respond to her, he just showed his happiness in his actions.

"Jane, you said you like me, I also love you very much."

He didn’t know how much she liked him, but he knew he cannot have a world without her.

"Edwin Carter, I will work hard, I will try hard..."

In her sleep, Jane murmured. Edwin Carter hugged her tighter and gently scolds, "Silly girl!"

She knew that she can rely on him, but she didn’t say anything to him. She always tried to depend on herself.

CHAPTER 323 – I DON’T WANT GRANDPA (PART 1)

"Baby, tomorrow is children’s day. Your dad and mom left you alone at home. Is it really good for them to run out to have fun now?"

This was the x time for Angela Carter to say these words in front of Janell Carter.

Angela Carter was thinking about how to knock down Victor James. Suddenly, she got a call from brother, and he asked her to go home to look after Janell.

Angela Carter liked Janell very much, but she was not happy after getting disturbed in her pursuit of Victor James.

She just thought that brother and sister-in-law also have a child. They can spend more time together later. Why they bothered her, she was still single.

"Auntie, I don’t like to listen to it." Auntie has been nagging for many times and Janell felt that her ears were fed up. She decided to go to play with brother Lucas and let Lucas sleep with her at night, and she won’t let auntie sleep with her.

 

Janell jumped down from the sofa with two hands on her back. With small steps, she looked like a little adult and ran to find her brother.

"Janell, you also don’t like to stay with me?" Angela Carter chased Janell back and said, "Janell, stay with me, or I will feel bad and maybe get moldy."

"Okay, auntie, I forgive you."

Auntie is not sensible, but she is sensible. So she decided to forgive her auntie.

Angela Carter hugged Janell and kissed her again, "thank you, baby. When you grow up and if no one likes you, auntie will accompany you."

"No, I don’t want auntie." Janell just decided to forgive auntie.

But how can her auntie say that?

She’s so cute and lovely. How can anyone dislike her?

She didn’t want to be with auntie anymore.

Angela Carter pinched Janell’s face and said with a smile, "I’m just kidding. Janell is so lovely and beautiful. There will be countless people to pursue our princess when she grows up, right?"

"Auntie, ten hundred." Janell stretches out a hand, smiled and said, "Auntie give me my money."

"How much is ten hundred and ten thousand?" Angela Carter calculated, but she didn’t know how much Janell wanted. She poked Janell’s forehead. "Little money grubber, remember this money. When you grow up, I will give you back the money."

"Young lady, Grand Master has arrived." Linda, the housekeeper, rushed in to report.

Angela Carter heard that grandpa has arrived, she said excitedly, "where is grandpa?"

"Angela." Then grandpa's voice came from the door.

"Grandpa, here you are." Angela Carter jumped up and rushed to give grandpa a big hug. "Grandpa, Angela miss you so much."

Grandpa rubbed Angela Carter’s head and said, "I haven’t seen my little Angel for several months. My Angela has become more beautiful."

Angela Carter smiled, "Grandpa, I know I’m very beautiful, but you don’t need to praise me every time like this. I’ll become proud if you keep boasting me."

Grandpa laughed and said, "You are our angel. There is nothing wrong with feeling proud."

Angela Carter was also a very cheeky person, but she was almost embarrassed by grandpa’s praise. She quickly shifted the topic, "Grandpa, look at our Janell."

Angela Carter jumped back and picked up Janell. "Grandpa, look at Janell. Does she look more like brother or sister-in-law?"

Grandpa looked at Janell and reached out to touch her, but before he could touch her, Janell started crying loudly.

"Baby, what’s the matter with you? He is your great grandpa, not a bad guy. Don’t be scared." Angela Carter hurriedly coaxed Janell.

 

Janell has seen many strangers, but she never got scared. Angela Carter couldn’t imagine that when she sees grandpa, she will cry like this.

"I want dad, I want big Jane. I don’t want grandpa..." Janell cried sadly and called her dad.

"Grandpa, don’t be sad." Angela Carter coaxed Janell and said to grandpa, "it’s easy for a child to forget things. She met you in the New Year. Maybe, she has forgotten in the past few months."

Grandpa smiled and said, "Angela, do you think grandpa is so narrow-minded? I’m in my eighties, how I can be angry with my little great-granddaughter?"

"I want daddy..." Janell was still crying, she almost used the strength of her whole body in crying loudly.

Angela Carter kissed Janell and comforted her, "Baby, daddy is busy working now and will come back to you soon."

Grandpa said, "Angela, take the child upstairs and coax her to sleep. Later, I have something to say to you."

Angela Carter was in great difficulty and said, "Grandpa, you haven’t had dinner yet. I’ll ask Linda to prepare for it."

Grandpa said, "I have eaten. Take the child upstairs."

Angela Carter held Janell and went upstairs.

Janell couldn’t see grandpa here and stopped crying abruptly. She wiped her tears with her little hands, pouted her mouth, and spoke very sadly, "I don’t want great grandpa."

"Jane, great-grandpa is your dad’s and auntie’s grandfather. He is a very kind man, and he likes you very much. Why don’t you like him?"

Angela Carter really can’t understand what’s going on in the brain of this little devil. How can she not like her kind and lovely grandpa?

But Janell was a very little child, Angela Carter did not know how to explain to her. It was not early now, so she put Janell to sleep first.

..

In the living room on the first floor, the servant poured tea for grandpa.

Grandpa waved to them to step back. As soon as they left, the assistant beside grandpa took a few steps. He bent over and whispered in grandpa’s ear, "Sir, this is the best and easiest way to implement if you want to stop the young master from finding it out."

Grandpa glanced at the assistant and said in a cold voice, "Joseph, whether the child likes me or not, she is still my Carter family’s child. Do you think you dare to touch my family’s child?"

"I just get it wrong." Assistant Joseph shook his fist, lowered his head and stepped back.

For a while, he couldn’t figure out what the old man was thinking.

Why did he refuse to use this method to solve the problem?

CHAPTER 324 – I DON’T WANT GRANDPA (PART 2)

Janell was a little child but her mind worked very fast. Angela Carter spent a lot of time and energy to coax this little child to sleep.

Janell fell asleep and Angela stared at Janell’s face, she stretched her hand pinched her cheeks, "Little baby, your mom and dad are so amazing. How can they produce such a cute baby without any experience?"

"In the future, when auntie and your big uncle have to produce a baby, we will learn from your parents and strive to make a little doll more attractive than you."

Angela Carter was excited and whistled proudly when she thought that she and Victor James can have such a lovely child as Janell.

She pulled the quilt to cover Janell and said, "little baby, I’m going to chat with grandpa for a while. Sleep well."

 

Angela Carter got up to leave. She opened the door, didn’t pay attention to the surroundings and bumped into the boy standing at the door.

Angela Carter stroked her shoulder and said, "Oh, Janell’s brother Lucas, what are you doing here? Why you aren't sleeping yet? And why are you standing here so quietly? Do you want to frighten me to death?"

At that moment, Angela was so scared. She didn’t know where Janell found such a freak. He just haunts all day long and never talked to anyone except Janell. He was really a strange person.

Lucas stood straight as if he hadn’t heard Angela’s words, and there was no expression on his face.

Angela Carter took a look at him and said, "In the future try to make some noise don’t stand up so quietly and don’t scare people again."

 

Angela Carter also didn’t expect him to answer her. She tried to close the door, but suddenly Lucas stopped her.

"What you want to do?" Angela Carter asked.

"I... stand here, watch her." It was hard for Lucas to say these words. His voice was hoarse as if his throat had been burned.

Angela Carter hadn’t heard Lucas speaking before. Suddenly, she heard a strong and hoarse voice. She felt as if her own throat hurt.

She touched her throat, cleared her throat, and said, "Janell is asleep. She doesn’t need your company. You can go back to your room to sleep."

Lucas didn’t speak again, his tall thin body blocked Angela Carter to stop her from closing the door. Although he was thin, still, he was tall and has a head higher than Angela Carter, so it was not difficult to stop Angela Carter from closing the door.

Angela Carter looked at Lucas doubtfully. In the past, when Janell fell asleep, he also went to his room to rest.

What’s the matter today?

After looking at him for a while, Angela Carter noticed the sincerity in his eyes. He has been with Janell for such a long time. He won’t do anything. And he was living in their villa, he cannot dare to make any trouble.

Angela Carter said, "Then watch Janell for a while, I will come back soon."

Angela Carter said walked and looked back while talking. She just felt that today Lucas behaved differently than the past but she didn’t know what has happened to him.

Lucas stood at the door and watched Janell, who was sleeping soundly in the room.

His eyes were on Janell, and it seemed very gentle and warm like a real big brother’s gaze.

After staring at Janell for a while, he looked at the window. His gentle eyes became fierce and sharp, with a sharp and sinister look completely inappropriate for his age.

There was Janell sleeping in the room, the lovely little girl, and the one who saved his life.

In this life, as long as he is alive, he will never let anyone hurt her.

CHAPTER 325 – I DON’T WANT GRANDPA (PART 3)

Downstairs, Grandpa was chatting with Angela Carter.

He rubbed Angela Carter’s head and sighed, "Angela, grandpa is getting older and older, I don’t know how many years I can stay with you."

Angela Carter nestled in Grandpa’s arms and acted like a child, "Grandpa, you are good, broad-minded and a positive person. You will live a long life."

"Hahaha..." Grandpa laughed and said, "It’s my little angel who knows the most and knows how to make grandpa happy."

Angela Carter said, "I am not flattering grandpa. I’ve always been honest."

Grandpa looked at Angela Carter and suddenly said, "Angela, let’s come back to the United States with grandpa for a while. Take a break from your career and Grandpa will find a way to let you go to Hollywood."

 

"Grandpa, I like Jiangbei, I want to stay in Jiangbei and don’t want to go anywhere." Because there was Victor James in Jiangbei, so, Angela Carter wanted to stay here forever.

She has to catch up with Victor James as soon as possible. In a few years, Victor James will be old. At that time, she started disliking the old Victor James.

Grandpa also knew the reason why Angela Carter wanted to stay in Jiangbei but he continued to pretend that he didn’t know as everyone else pretended to hide it.

He added, "Angela, what’s good in Jiangbei?"

What’s good in Jiangbei?

Angela Carter didn’t need to think about it at all. She knew that Victor James was the only reason, and this only reason was enough for her to stay here all her life.

She said, "Grandpa, Jiangbei is no less than other countries. The scenery that we can see in the United States can also be seen here. Grandpa, I think you should stay in Jiangbei so after finishing my work I can meet you every day."

 

Grandpa also wanted to say something but the assistant who has just left came back and said, "Sir, somethings cannot be done properly, and I need to report them to you."

As soon as he heard that things cannot be done properly, grandpa’s face became worse, but just only for a moment, soon he regained his normal expressions.

He looked at Angela, "Angela, it’s not early. You should go to have a rest earlier. I have to go."

Angela Carter held grandpa’s arm, "Grandpa, it’s too late, where are you going? Why don't you stay here?"

Grandpa patted her hand and sighed, "Angela, grandpa is old. I need to do some important things now. If I couldn’t do it now, I’m afraid I won’t get time to do it later."

"Grandpa…"

"Go to sleep. I have to leave now."

Grandpa came and left all of a sudden. Angela Carter had a lot to say to him but before she could speak Grandpa has already walked out of the room.

She watched grandpa going to the gate, sitting in the car and his car going far away. After that Angela Carter reluctantly took back her eyes.

Grandpa’s words were inexplicable and gave her heart a little pain. Grandpa has already left Shengtian’s affairs to brother to deal with. He also enjoyed his old age for many years.

What’s the matter today that grandpa had to leave in hurry to do things at this time in the night?

Angela Carter thought about it. Unexpectedly, sometimes she thought that she was just a useless person. She can’t do anything except acting. Her brother was not here to help grandpa, and she can’t help him in any matter.

CHAPTER 326 – JUST FOLLOW HIM

Angela Carter returned to Janell’s room, and her eyes fell on the Lucas standing still at the door, straight and upright, just as she left him. It seemed as if she had not moved since she left.

Angela Carter became more curious about the boy, who was about 15 or 16 years old. She couldn’t help staring at him. Lucas also saw her coming back. He took another look at the Janell in the room, then turned around and left without saying a word.

Angela Carter stared at Lucas back and said with dissatisfaction, "such a young boy still knows how to act cool. What he will do after growing up."

Suddenly, another thought came into Angela Carter’s mind, and she got a thrill, "Maybe he's seeing our Janell."

Angela Carter went back to the room, looked at the sleeping Janell and murmured, "Our Janell is so lovely, I am sure she won’t like this freak."

 

She lay down beside Janell and said, "baby, auntie is here to sleep with you. What your parents might be doing? The two bad guys left us and went alone to have fun. And I am so pitiful that I haven’t caught up with your uncle yet."

Angela Carter was a talkative person. She could even talk to Janell who was sleeping for a long time.

However, one reason why she talked so much was also Victor James. If Victor James had agreed to her proposal and she wouldn’t have to try too hard, she will be busy having babies with him and there was no other thought in her mind.

At the same time, Lucas, who has just left, didn’t go back to his room. He even came to the top of the building alone, sat on the top of Janell’s room, and observed the surrounding movement quietly.

There was no cool wind in the night, and the high temperature of the day can be felt, so this night was particularly hot and dry.

 

However, compared with the restlessness that this hot night brought to the atmosphere, the hearts of the people with bad intentions were even restless.

In the pitch-black night, Lucas's eyes looked around. He seemed to have the cat’s eyes. Even if it was dark outside the villa, he could see clearly.

Those people with wrong intention in the presence of him couldn’t be able to harm the little girl. He will surely guard Janell Carter’s safety and never let them achieve their goal.

This hot and dry night was extremely long for Lucas. He felt as he was waiting for a long time for dawn, so that all the threats can be relieved temporarily.

However, the same night was very short for Edwin Carter and Jane.

Holding each other in their arms, close to each other, feeling each other’s breath, they haven’t enjoyed all this completely when the night has passed.

Edwin Carter lay down beside Jane, looked at her delicate face, seeing her blinking eyelashes, seeing his countless traces under her body, felt that his heart was filled with happiness. He wanted to be with her forever.

For a moment he wanted to forget the secret that Jane suffered, wanted to forget that Jane still has no memory of him, wanted to forget all these things… he just wanted to embrace her like this and grow old together.

When Jane woke up, it was already noon. She felt very tired and didn’t even have the strength to turn over. It took a lot of effort to open her eyes. When she opened her eyes, she saw Edwin Carter’s handsome face.

She admitted that Edwin Carter was a really good-looking man. Even though she was familiar with his appearance, still every time she felt amazed by his appearance.

 

Last night, it seemed that he was working hard. He was the one who exerted most physical strength. However, his spirit seemed much better than hers. She wondered from where this man’s energy came from?

"You’re awake."

His low, dark voice reached her ears. At this time, it was particularly tantalizing, making people’s hearts beat faster.

"Yeah." Jane nodded.

She made a sound and before she could say a word, she was kissed by Edwin Carter.

"Mmm..." Jane instinctively pushed him, but his strong body on her was like a mountain, she could not push him.

Edwin Carter savored her unique sweetness, like a beast who was hungry for a long time – he was ferocious, explosive, and strong but he had his unique tenderness for her.

Her breath was swallowed by him, and her brain was blank. She couldn’t think of anything and just wanted to follow him. He led her to be immersed in the world belonging to the two of them again.

Jane never knew that Edwin Carter, a man with a cold and noble appearance, could be so fierce. He turned into a vicious wolf and ate her completely.

Later on, Jane couldn’t stand his attack. When he finished a round, she was even tired and fell asleep again.

Jane slept long. When she woke up again, it was the second day’s morning.

She was awake, but she was afraid to open her eyes. She was afraid that Edwin Carter would knock her down again. If he did it again, she will be broken.

When she was confused about what to do, Edwin Carter’s low and deep laughter fell into her ears. It was like the old wine buried for many years, mellow and intoxicating.

Jane pulled up the quilt and wrapped herself up. She decided to ignore Edwin Carter. The rascal, how can he make fun of her?

"Jane," Edwin Carter came up and kissed her forehead. He said softly, "you’ve been sleeping all day and all night. It’s bad for your health to sleep too long. Get up and have a meal. Let’s go somewhere."

Jane said, "I’m not hungry."

Edwin Carter touched her head and said in a spoiled voice, "Really not hungry? Or do you still want to..."

Jane put out her hand on his lips to block his mouth, blushed and said, "Edwin Carter, if you do it again, I..."

Edwin Carter grabbed her hand, kissed her gently, and said, "What happened yesterday was a compensation for my three years of forbearance. I won’t let you be so tired in the future."

"..."

Jane really didn’t know what to say to this man. He was really a man with different views.

This kind of thing can be understood in their hearts. Why he felt the need to say it?

"I can’t stay in bed any longer." He gently kissed on her lips. "Get up, wash and eat breakfast. I want to take you to a place."

"Where?"

"Soon you’ll know."

She didn’t ask again. She’ll go wherever he takes her.

With him by her side, she was ready to go anywhere.

First of all, Edwin Carter brought Jane to see her mother. She stood in front of the tombstone, felt some kind of heartache that she felt when she buried her mother that day, but she still couldn’t remember exactly what happened.

After that, Edwin Carter took Jane to Xisan Snow Mountain in Kyoto, where they had been. It was summers now. There was no snow or skiing sports in the scenic area, but the scenery was very beautiful. The blooming Begonia flowers make the snow mountain a sea of colorful flowers.

CHAPTER 327 – WEAR THE WEDDING RING AGAIN

It’s nice to enjoy the snow in winter and flowers in summer.

There were still a large number of tourists as winters coming to see the Begonia flowers in Xisan Snow Mountain.

Edwin Carter didn’t know if he has a very good memory or because Jane took him here, he remembered this place very clearly.

He came here once and now he came back a few years later. But he could even remember where there was a barrier and where there was a turn. He took Jane’s hand and led the path. He took her to the "Sea love" where she had taken him three years ago.

The small frozen lake of winter has already thawed in summers, the ice and snow has melted away, and there was much water. The water in the lake was shining like a pearl in the mountains.

 

Edwin Carter held Jane and kissed her forehead. He said softly, "Jane, do you like this place?"

"I like it." She nodded hard and gave him a bright smile. She said softly, "I really like it! Thank you for bringing me to such a beautiful place."

Edwin Carter heard her saying this and smiled bitterly. He rubbed her head. She brought him to such a beautiful place, not he, but she just couldn’t remember.

"You brought me here in the winters." Edwin Carter led Jane to the old tree and said, "You also told me that this small lake is called sea love."

He knew that she can’t remember. He tried to tell her slowly. It was okay if she can’t remember, but he will tell her slowly, he will tell her everything about their past.

Originally this place was called sea love! The lake was not big, but the water was so clear you can see the bottom, just like love, only real love can hold two people in such a pure way.

 

Edwin Carter led Jane to that old tree, pulling her to squat down together, "at that time, you dug out a ring from here and gave it to me."

With that, Edwin Carter looked at Jane quietly, hoping that she can respond to him and tell him that she can remember that she dug out the treasure that she had buried with her mother and gave it to him while the lake was still frozen.

Jane was also trying to think back, thinking back and forth, she only thought of some pictures that was to bury a ring with her mother.

She looked at Edwin Carter’s left hand. The middle finger of his left hand was wearing a ring, a very old style ring, which her mother buried here in her memory.

She remembered her mother’s words – Jane when you will meet the one you really love, and the one with whom you want to live a lifetime, then give this ring to him.

Jane can’t remember the time when she gave the ring to Edwin Carter, but she recognized the ring in Edwin Carter’s finger, it was clear that she gave this ring to him, it showed that she must be deeply in love with him.

There have been doubts, fears, and panic before. After these two days, all those emotions were gone.

At the moment, Jane was sure that Edwin Carter was her husband, the father of her child, the man she loved before, and the man with whom she fell in love again in her life.

Love is really a wonderful thing, it did not disappear with the passage of time, even there is an invisible force tightly pulling each other.

Jane nestled into Edwin Carter’s arms, held his waist and mumbled, "Mr. Carter, I will hold you tightly and never leave you again."

 

She has made up her mind, no matter who made her lose her memory, no matter how terrible the forces behind the scenes were, she will fight with them to the end.

This time she will hold Edwin Carter’s hand tightly and never leave him.

"Mr. Carter will also hold Mrs. Carter tightly. He will never leave her hand again." Edwin Carter said.

Edwin Carter stretched out his hand and showed Jane the old style ring that had never been removed from the middle finger of his left hand, "when I put on this ring, you said that I am your man, and I can never step back for the rest of my life."

"I, I really said this?" Jane can’t remember, can she really say such a savage thing? Or Edwin Carter was just teasing her again?

"You don’t want to take responsibility for your words?" Edwin Carter raised his eyebrows as if he will throw her into the nearby lake if she dared to say yes.

"No." they have a daughter. This was a lifetime responsibility, how can she even think of it?

Edwin Carter grabbed Jane’s hand and kissed on the back of her hand. Like a magic trick, a ring suddenly appeared in her hand.

"Jane, this is our wedding ring. Would you like to put it on again for me?" Edwin Carter asked carefully with the fear that she would refuse.

When he came back from a business trip, Jane was gone. His family members gave him Jane’s all belongings and this wedding ring.

This ring belonged to Jane. It was engraved with the name "Edwin". Edwin Carter wanted to put it on her again, but he didn’t know whether she wanted to wear it or not.

"I will." Do you need to ask?

Edwin Carter carefully put the ring into her ring finger again. She was thinner than three years ago, and the ring was a little loose.

Edwin Carter added, "This size is a little bigger. I’ll take it back and let people resize it."

 

Jane immediately stopped him and didn’t let him take the ring back, "this ring is mine, and you can’t take it off at will."

It didn’t matter if she was a little thin. She’ll eat more and gain more weight in the future. Actually, she was a little superstitious. After wearing the wedding ring, she can’t let him take it off.

Jane raised her hand and looked at it, sighed, pretended to share a deep secret, "I thought that I will get married again, but I’m still married to the same man, it seems a little boring."

Jane said it and it was just a joke, but Mr. Carter took it seriously, dragged her into his arms and kissed her hard again. He didn’t let her go until he gasped and said seriously, "In this life, you can’t think of anyone except me."

"You are so domineering!" he was really domineering, but it seemed that she liked such a domineering and loving man.

As she spoke, Jane suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "Edwin Carter, what’s the date today?"

"2nd of June."

"2nd of June?"

Jane frowned and became very upset. They should have accompanied Janell on the children’s day, but they came to Kyoto. Everyone else has their parents to accompany them, but Janell was alone.

"I believe Janell will be happier to know that her mom is back than celebrating children’s day." Edwin Carter said and hoped that Jane can be brave and agreed to recognize Janell.

But Jane was not ready yet.

Although her relationship with Janell was very good, Janell also mentioned that she wanted her to be her mother, but that kind of feeling cannot the same. Janell was still a child. She didn’t know the difference between a mother and a stepmother very well.

In the first place, Jane wanted Janell to understand that she was Janell’s own mother, not a stepmother.

CHAPTER 328 – OUT OF DANGER

It has been said that the mother and child’s heart are connected, it wasn’t just a saying.

On June 1 children’s day, Janell had encountered something, not in kindergarten, but on the way to kindergarten.

These years, Edwin Carter has protected Janell very well. Wherever he had gone, he always took Janell with him. But now he stopped taking Janell with him.

First, Janell was over three years old, so he had to send her to kindergarten to meet more children and to let her learn how to communicate with them. Second, he was also busy trying to find a way to get Janell’s mother back, so he ignored her a little.

Usually, there were two bodyguards, her own driver, and a Janell’s new nanny.

The two bodyguards were transferred from the United States by Edwin Carter shortly after Janell’s birth. They have been with Janell for more than three years and seemed very loyal. These years, Janell has been well protected by them.

 

Janell’s driver was also a well-trained person of Edwin Carter. His driving skill was first-class and his psychological ability was even better than his driving skill.

These people has been around Janell and they all were carefully selected by Edwin Carter. They all were skilled in all aspects with strong mental ability to not panic, so as to better protect Janell in case of an accident.

Edwin Carter chose these people to accompany Janell. Therefore, in this accident, they played their strengths to the extreme and even in such a dangerous situation, Janell was not injured at all. Everyone was safe.

However, the main person in this incident was Lucas.

Although last night, Lucas stayed at the top of the building for a whole night and didn’t sleep for a second. But his mood was not greatly affected. It was not wrong to say that it strained his every nerve.

 

Because of the reason for his birth, his senses were very sharp, and many times he can detect the danger that others can’t perceive.

The night before the incident, the villa seemed as calm as usual. The security personnel in charge of the villa didn’t notice anything unusual, but he noticed it.

It seemed that the peaceful villa has been stared at, and the target was likely to be Janell.

He didn’t know much about the Carter family and didn’t know who can do it to such a little child. However, no matter who it was or what was his purpose. He didn’t take it lightly. He took good care of Janell.

He thought those people who were hiding in the dark would be more restrained in the daytime, but on the contrary, they were so blatant that they dared to stop them directly on the road.

They should be observing Janell for a long time, and they knew which road she used every day to go to kindergarten, so they made preparations in advance. Many cars without a sign were stopped in the road and as they saw their cars coming, they swarmed up.

Fortunately, Lucas found the abnormality in advance, he immediately asked the driver to pay attention to get rid of them and informed the two bodyguards in another car about the situation.

When Lucas spoke, Janell’s ears were attentive. She blinked her big eyes and listened to Lucas carefully, but she couldn’t understand things clearly.

He rubbed her head softly, adjusted his hoarse voice as much as possible and spoke with some gentleness, "Janell, do you want to play a game?"

 

Janell heard that Brother Lucas wanted to play a game with her, she immediately showed her interest. She asked softly, "Which game do you want to play with me?"

"In a moment, the driver will drive the car very fast, and I will hold Janell, tell me, will you be scared or face it bravely?" Lucas asked.

Janell heavily shook her head, "Janell is not scared. Janell is brave."

She said to herself that she is a very brave child, so she won’t get scared, or cry or to make Lucas laugh at her.

"Well, now I will hug Janell." Lucas held Janell into his arms, put his hand on her to protect her head and said at the same time, "Now get rid of those people."

The driver stepped on the accelerator quickly and violently, the speedometer soared rapidly, the car was as fast as an arrow, and soon the car chasing them was far away.

The bodyguard’s car that was originally behind them rushed to their front after receiving Lucas’s orders. With superior skills and strong psychological quality, they forced the two vehicles in front of them to intercept them and successfully let the vehicle in which Janell was sitting first rush out of the encirclement.

After getting rid of the cars that surrounded them, they did not slow down. They continued to drive to their destination. To Jiangbei military region, where they would be safest.

Everything happened so fast, it seemed as Janell was just taking a nap in Brother Lucas’s arms, and she was completely out of danger.

What they met didn’t seem to be very challenging, but if Edwin Carter hadn’t picked all the experts and there was no Lucas who was protecting Janell, the conspiracy against Janell would not be so easy to end.

 

Edwin Carter had not reached Jiangbei when he heard the news. In order to not let Jane worry, he didn’t tell her anything.

Although there was no evidence, still Edwin Carter had already guessed that who started it with Janell. It was time for him to talk to that man in person.

After more than two hours’ flight, they finally arrived at Jiangbei Airport.

Edwin Carter was just away for three days and did not deal with the work at all. But this workload was enough for him to deal with for a long time.

Last time, Luis George’s men did not do a good job. Luis George was also punished, and Edwin Carter went to Kyoto without even his two most important persons.

When they arrived at Jiangbei Airport, Luis George and Sienna Henry had been waiting for a long time. As soon as Edwin Carter arrived, they reported a lot of work to him.

Jane felt very sad. Edwin Carter had a lot of work and got busy just after getting off the plane, and she went to Kyoto without telling him, so he also came after her to protect her and also took her to see the beautiful scenery.

Now she understood that she really didn’t understand things well and made problems for him.

She knew if she wanted to be sensible, she just didn’t need to say that she wanted to help him, she just needed to not create troubles again, don’t let him distract again and just let him work well at home.

Jane sat beside Edwin Carter, took a breath quietly, clenched her fist and told herself to be sensible.

They were sitting in a luxury business car. Apart from the driver, there were not only Edwin Carter and Jane but also Sienna Henry and Luis George who were reporting to Edwin Carter.

Just when Jane was quietly advising herself, she suddenly felt an unfriendly eye on her.

But when she looked up, she saw nothing. Edwin Carter’s two assistants were reporting their work to him. Edwin Carter was listening to them and no one paid attention to her.

Is it her delusion?

CHAPTER 329 – SHE HAS TO DIE

It was the month of June. The weather was getting hotter and the sun has scorched the earth like a fireball.

Edwin Carter made an excuse that he has some urgent piece of work, he sent Jane back to villa, took Sienna Henry and Luis George and left.

"Chairman Carter..."

Luis George just opened his mouth and was interrupted by Edwin Carter, "Tell the old master. I will meet him in a moment."

Edwin Carter knew very well that the old man who was hiding somewhere for about half a month has reappeared in Jiangbei. It was obvious that he was also ready to meet him.

Grandpa lived on a farm in the suburb of Jiangbei. He was old and wanted to live in a peaceful place. Here, he can plant fresh flowers and go hiking everyday, which was the best enjoyment at this age.

 

When Edwin Carter arrived at the farm, grandpa Carter was watering flowers in the yard. He saw Edwin Carter coming but didn’t pay attention to him.

Edwin Carter stood still and without speaking anything he waved to his entourage to leave.

After waiting for a long time, grandpa Carter looked back at him and said, "Leon is here. Grandpa knows you are filial, and you stay busy all day, you don’t need to come here to see grandpa especially."

"You are waiting for me here, how can I not come to see you?" Edwin Carter was not in the mood to play dumb with the old man. He said, "You know why I came here."

"Joseph just bought me a box of good Pu’er tea. It hasn’t been opened yet. Now that we’re here, let’s have a cup of tea. I haven’t seen you for several months, and your grandfather would like to talk to you. By the way, how is Shengtian doing?"

 

Grandpa Carter didn’t pay attention to Edwin Carter’s topic and intentionally took it to other things. However, Edwin Carter came to him this time with only one purpose and there were no intentions to make friends with him.

Edwin Carter added, "We all know that we can’t do this without making it clear. You don’t have to beat around the bush with me. I just want to know why you did that three years ago?"

"Three years ago?" Grandpa Carter stroked his forehead, as if thinking seriously, and said, "Leon, I did so many things three years ago that I can’t remember. Which one do you mean?"

"The things you did with Jane Ronan." Grandpa Carter wanted to play dumb, but Edwin Carter needed his answers. He spoke again, "Three years ago, you injected her with an army’s special drug that they use to deal with spies. You let her go to the devil’s gate. You let her lose all her memories and gave her to Jonathan Ronan. How can you be so calm?"

"Oh, you know everything." Grandpa smiled and said it lightly, as if Jane’s life was not as worthy as a human life at all.

Before Edwin Carter could ask again, the old man continued, "Three years ago, I thought she would die. Jonathan Ronan told me that he wanted her, so I gave her to Jonathan Ronan. I didn’t expect that she had a long life and will come back alive."

"You—" Edwin Carter hadn’t expected that the old man will admit so readily. Even more he hadn’t expected that he will admit it in such an unrepentant tone.

Edwin Carter shook his fist angrily, and his bones clicked. If the old man in front of him was not his grandfather, he would shoot him in the head.

"Leon, from your childhood till now, whatever you have learned has been forgotten? Can you speak to your elders in such a tone?" The old man sighed and shook his head, as if he has such an un-filial grandson.

 

"I’ve been following your instructions since I was a child, so I know what can be done and what can’t be done." Edwin Carter glared at grandpa Carter and said, "And you? What have you done being an elder?"

"Whatever I did was just for your good." Grandpa Carter looked at Edwin Carter with keen eyes and said in a cold voice, "I know that our Carter family has been a prestigious family sine decade, we are knowledgeable and polite, and can’t have such a dirty woman."

"Dirty? Ha ha..." Edwin Carter sneered coldly, "No matter how she was born, in my heart, she is my wife and the mother of my child. I will never allow anyone to pour dirty water on her. Including you."

"Leon, you know that she is not Jonathan Ronan’s daughter, and you know what kind of circumstances her mother had faced and how she was born, and also you know that her own father’s surname is Michael. Do you know what her father has done in the past?"

"I don’t need to know." Edwin Carter only knew that Jane was the woman he liked and the woman he must have to protect his whole life.

"Then I want to make it clear that she must have to disappear from my eyes, from our Carter family. I will never let her really enter the Carter family gate."

"Then I also want to make it clearer that she’s the only woman I have ever recognized. She is my only woman. As long as I am alive, I will never let anyone hurt her again." Edwin Carter looked into his eyes and spoke.

"Leon, three years ago, I left her and she has this life but this time I won’t be merciful." Gandpa smiled coldly and said, "I am telling you very clearly that I will let her disappear from the world completely."

 

Grandpa’s face was still that kind face, but when he said these words, Edwin Carter found that he never really knew grandpa.

In grandpa’s face, he could no longer see the kind of benevolent aura he could see when he was a child and could no longer hear him holding his hand and saying, "Leon, you are the only child of our Carter family, and later you have to shoulder the burden of the whole Carter family, so you have to work harder than others."

Edwin Carter from the beginning knew that his life wasn’t the same as other children’s lives, and he has to shoulder the responsibility of the whole Carter family. But at this moment, everything has changed.

His grandfather was no longer the kind grandfather he used to be. This grandfather wanted to get rid of his wife.

What would be crueler than this?

Edwin Carter shook his head, put down the confusing emotions in his heart, and then said, "Then from now on, you don’t have any grandson."

"You—" Grandpa Carter smashed the watering can in his hand at Edwin Carter and scolded, "do you know what nonsense you’re talking about."

"I know what I’m doing, I never did anything without considering it." Edwin Carter said coldly.

"You want have to cut off with your grandpa for a woman?"

"I don’t have such a vicious and merciless grandfpa as you."

"You... okay Leon! Now you have grown up, right? I could give Shengtian to you. Today, I can also let you lose all this and make you have nothing."

Grandpa was so angry that he would say such a thing.

"Let’s wait and see if Shengtian is yours or mine!" Edwin Carter was very clear about how this business was when he took over Shengtian and what Shengtian looks like now.

CHAPTER 330 – SHE’S THE ONLY ONE

Shengtian group’s development in that year was very good, but after Edwin Carter, it developed faster and became a well-known global enterprise group.

He took over Shengtian and tightly held it in his hand for so many years. After so many years of painstaking management, he managed all this and now the old man said that he could take it back.

All along, Edwin Carter was not a man who can abide by the rules in his work. If the old man dare to mess around, there was nothing that he can’t do.

"Edwin Carter, you have to push me to death by pissing me off and then you will be relieved?" Grandpa Carter roared, coughed with anger and shook his body twice. He called him Edwin Carter, he rarely called him by his full name.

Edwin Carter stood still and asked in a cold voice, "I’m asking again, what’s the secret between you and Victor James? In order to protect Angela, in order to let Angela marry me, you don’t care to hurt my wife cruelly?"

Only by finding the main problem can Edwin Carter understand why the old man wanted to deal with Jane.

Jane was just a weak woman. Edwin didn’t think that it was just because of her mother that she was in such a situation. It seemed strange that just due to her past old man started hating her so much.

"Secret? You want to know that secret?" Grandpa Carter patted his chest and said, "I’m afraid that after knowing it you would rather wish that you hadn’t asked."

"Even if you won’t tell, I’ll still get to know. I am saying it to you for the last time." Edwin Carter looked at grandpa Carter, his eyes were cold as if he was looking at a stranger. "If you dared to hurt Jane or Janell again, I will let you know what kind of person I am."

If anyone want to compare the cruel mean it wasn't that Edwin Carter hadn't used them in recent years. Edwin Carter can do even worse than his grandpa.

 

From childhood, Edwin Carter has always been the most sensible child in the hearts of the elders and has never done anything to disappoint them.

After taking over Shengtian, he put all his energy into the management of Shengtian and never had a single holiday for his own.

His purpose was to develop Shengtian better, so that his grandpa, father, mother and sister can live in peace.

It was definitely an accident to meet Jane. Almost without consideration, he decided to marry Jane, which was also the most impulsive thing in his life.

However, he never thought that the grandfather who recognized Jane in front of everyone would do such things in private.

The old man took Jane away from him and injected her with the kind of medicine that might kill her.

At that time, why the old man didn’t think how his grandson would live after losing his beloved wife?

Why he didn’t even think once before taking out the baby, the baby hasn’t completed its full term and can die at any time.

If the old man had this grandson in his heart, if the old man still had a little affection in his heart, he wouldn’t have chosen such a ferocious road.

Even if Jane was a person who has nothing to do with the old man, what about Janell?

Janell is their own kid, the blood of the Carter family. She is only three years old. She is just a child who doesn’t understand anything. However, when he was busy, this old man’s hand reaches out to Janell.

"Why do you want to be with her? Except her, you can have all the women you want. And Angela, you two have grown up together. In comparison, she is much better than that woman."

 

After that, the old man coughed violently again. He was angry with Edwin Carter, but he didn’t realize how much his words have hurt Edwin Carter’s heart.

Edwin Carter smiled and said, "Jane has shortcomings, she may not be as energetic and lively as Angela, but she is the most special person in my heart."

Sometimes, Edwin Carter even got angry because of Jane’s stubbornness and obstinate behavior. He wanted to broke her into pieces, but he still wanted to be with her.

Whenever he was with her, he always felt very relaxed. Many things he didn’t need to explain to her. She could understand on her own. She stood beside him and gave him a hug.

To all, he was powerful, strong enough to be invincible, as if he was destined to play the role of protector. Only for Jane, it was different. She was so weak, but she still wanted to protect him.

It was not just that she thought that she will protect him. When they faced danger, she hurt herself so badly just to save him. Even the scars on her legs have not all disappeared.

When thinking of scar, Edwin Carter was even more distressed. He remembered the scar on Jane’s abdomen. That night, when they had sex, he saw the scar on her abdomen. At that moment, his heart seemed to be pierced by thousands of arrows, and it was badly mangled.

It was a long and ugly scar, almost cut the whole abdomen.

At that time, they took Janell from her stomach and injected her with a fatal medicine. They didn’t even think of leaving her as a living being.

If Jane didn’t have the good luck, he wouldn’t even get the chance to see her again.

Edwin thought about Jane’s injuries, he felt it difficult to breathe, and he wanted to tear that person’s body into pieces who have hurt her.

But the one who has hurt her was his closest grandfather.

Edwin Carter noticed that he couldn’t get any information from the old man’s mouth, so he didn’t waste his time anymore.

He looked at the old man for the last time, to him, which was the last time he looked at him as a grandson. If he would again see the old man, he would meet him like a stranger, and he would not be polite if this old man tried to hurt the people he cared about.

"Leon, you want to leave your grandpa for a woman? Leave the identity of Carter’s successor?"

Behind him, grandpa’s old but still loud voice sounded.

Edwin Carter didn’t stop, nor did he look back. He continued to stride away.

If a person wants to get the respect of his younger generation, he must have to behave well as an elder.

For Edwin Carter, he was no longer his grandfather.

Grandpa stared blankly at Edwin Carter going away, the old man was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. He did all this for his good.

In order to protect the child, he has raised from childhood.

Was he wrong?

"Don’t be angry, master. Don’t be angry." grandpa’s assistant who has been waiting for him in the distance, rushed to support Mr. Carter and comforted him, saying, "Young master is also confused by love for a while. When he understands he won’t blame you."

Grandpa Carter said angrily, "For a while? Three years has passed. He hasn’t figured it out yet, and you are saying for a while."

Assistant Joseph looked at the old man, "Master, the little miss…."

Hearing what the assistant said, and thinking of what Edwin Carter just said about Janell, the old man suddenly thought of something.

He looked at Joseph and asked, "It’s you?"

Assistant Joseph immediately explained, "Master, I didn’t mean to hurt little miss, it’s just..."

Grandpa got so angry that his body trembled, "Get out!"

CHAPTER 331 – DON’T BULLY MY DAUGHTER

After coming back from grandpa’s place, Edwin Carter immediately ordered Luis George, "go and find out, no matter how much manpower, material and financial resources you have to spend, just find out every hidden secret."

Luis George nodded repeatedly and said, "Chairman Carter, I have already sent people out. According to your orders, they will check everything related to madam’s own father Mr. Michael and also everything about Jonathan Ronan."

Edwin Carter nodded, "Send more people, check from several lines. Check everything about Michael's family, Ronan's family, James family, and the past of the old man. Don’t miss any clues."

The old man has always been cruel to Jane. Edwin Carter just heard that the old man mentioned Jane’s father. He thought that he should start it from here.

 

He didn’t want to miss any clues, only the information of Michael's family and Jonathan Ronan will not be enough. He has to spread out his net. He can’t miss any details.

"Yes," Luis George replied.

Luis George and Sienna Henry were the most trusted subordinates of Edwin Carter. They often followed him, and their dimension of work was different.

Luis George was in charge of such things as finding secrets. Sienna Henry was mainly responsible for logistics. They do different work, but for Edwin Carter, they both were the right-hand persons that were very important to him.

The sky that had a bright sun a moment ago suddenly got covered with dark clouds and thunder. It looked as it will rain heavily soon.

Edwin Carter’s mood at this time was just like the sky that was covered with dark clouds. The dark pressure makes him unable to breathe. It also indicates that there will be a storm in his life.

 

No matter how fierce the storm will be, he had to protect his wife and child. No matter how long grandpa Carter’s hands stretch out, he would not let the old man succeed.

...

When Jane came back to the villa, she came to know that Janell didn’t go to kindergarten and was taking a nap at home.

When she went upstairs, she saw Lucas standing at the door of Janell’s room. The tall and thin boy was standing upright. Just by looking at his back, she felt that he didn’t look like a child born in an ordinary family.

Jane walked over and smiled softly, "Is Janell pestering you to stay with her and won’t let you go back to your room to sleep?"

He heard Jane’s voice, turned around. He greeted her, turned around and left.

It was not that Janell pestered him to accompany her, but that he didn’t trust anyone and couldn’t leave Janell alone in the room.

What happened yesterday was still saved in his mind. He can’t take it lightly until this matter has been completely solved.

Jane went back to the room, sat down beside Janell, and just after looking at the lovely little guy, Jane’s heart was filled with a strange kind of emotion.

She unconsciously stroked her abdomen. She used to think that the scar on her abdomen was too ugly to wear sexy clothes.

When she was doing underwear designing in Milan, sometimes the model didn’t arrive in time. Someone suggested that she should go to the show. She wanted to go, but when she thought about the abdominal scar, she quickly gave up the idea.

 

Now she knew that the scar had left by taking Janell, and she didn’t feel it ugly at all, she even felt very proud.

This proves that she is Janell’s mother, and Janell is her own child.

Janell was sleeping soundly and didn’t notice her sitting beside her.

Jane can’t help but reach out and pinch her little face. She didn’t know how to tell Janell that she is her mother.

Jane recalled that incident when Janell cried and said that she wants her mother, not her and Jane felt sad.

If she tells Janell, she will believe that she is her mother?

She felt very sad with the thought that she has missed her child’s growth for so many years and even after that she didn’t know that her child was around her.

However, she was glad that Edwin Carter didn’t give up on her.

She was glad that Edwin Carter had found her back so that she can be the part of this father and daughter’s lives.

When Jane was thinking about it, Janell blinked her eyelashes and opened her eyes. From her confused and lovely appearance, it seemed that her brain hasn’t turned on yet.

She blinked again and confirmed that it was big Jane sitting in front of her. She smiled sweetly and said softly, "Big Jane."

"Ah, Janell is awake." Jane lowered her head and kissed her. Then she said, "Would you like to wash your face?"

"Okay." Janell opened her arms and cleverly asked Jane to hold her.

She opened her eyes and found big Jane sitting beside her. It seemed that Lucas is really powerful.

Lucas told that if she close her eyes and when she opens he would bring big Jane for her.

 

As expected, she opened her eyes and found big Jane.

Janell started to adore Lucas even more.

Janell was very narcissistic and this habit of narcissism has been learned from her auntie. She always felt that she is the most beautiful and lovely child in the world.

When Jane helped her wash her face, she opened her eyes to look at herself in the mirror, deliberately squeezed her face and made a pout. She felt that after a good sleep she became even beautiful.

Jane seemed to understand this child’s thoughts, and she could not help laughing, "My little Jane is the most beautiful and lovely."

"Big Jane and little Jane both are beautiful." Janell looked at Jane’s face in the mirror. The more she looked at it, the more she thought that big Jane looked as beautiful as herself.

"Yes, my big and little Jane both are equally beautiful."

However, when they were talking, a low, sexy and gentle voice fell into this mother and daughter’s ears.

Jane suddenly heard Edwin Carter call her "my big Jane" Jane can’t help blushing and asked, "Who is your big Jane?"

Edwin Carter came over and took her hand with the wedding ring, "You are already locked up by me if you are not my Jane then what it is?"

"I am daddy’s little Jane and you are daddy’s big Jane." Janell looked at Jane and nodded to express her satisfaction.

"Yes, Janell is the best daughter of this world." Edwin Carter held Janell in his hands, kissed her, and asked, "Does Janell miss daddy?"

"Yes. I miss daddy! I miss daddy so much that my teeth hurt." Janell said softly and at the same time, she showed her small front teeth, "Daddy, look."

"Well, let me have a look." Edwin Carter took a look at Janell carefully, pretending to be surprised and said, "Janell, your teeth don’t hurt because you missed daddy, they are bitten by little bugs. See, there are two little bugs in it."

"Daddy, I don’t want to be bitten by bugs."

She heard that her teeth were bitten by bugs, she was shocked and wanted to cry, but she didn’t want to lose face in front of big Jane.

Her little face was red and the crystal clear tears rolled down from her eyes.

Edwin Carter often teased Janell like this and this little guy every time got cheated. After that, he has to spend a lot of time coaxing her.

But today, there was Jane here. How can she tolerate him bullying her daughter?

She grabbed Janell and hugged her. She stared at Edwin Carter fiercely, "don’t bully my daughter."

CHAPTER 332 – MOTHER DAUGHTER RECOGNITION

From time to time, there was a rumble of thunder outside the house. It was heavily raining. The sound of the gurgling water of rain seemed to fill the whole world.

However, in their villa, the hosts’ mood was not affected by the weather at all. The three members of this family were very happy together.

Jane said, "don’t bully my daughter" so naturally.

Edwin Carter was happy.

Does it mean that she’s going to tell Janell the truth?

Janell blinked her big eyes. It seemed that she didn’t understand what big Jane has just said, but it also seemed that she has understood what big Jane has just said.

Jane was even more worried. Without thinking about it, she blurted out such words.

Jane thought that it was so sudden that Janell must not be prepared for it.

Would Janell be willing to admit her as her mother?

Edwin Carter’s attention was on Jane, and Jane’s attention was on Janell. Janell looked at her father and big Jane. Suddenly, she held Jane’s face and smacked her lips, leaving a circle of saliva marks.

"Oh yeah, Janell has a mother," she said softly.

In kindergarten, other children have mothers. But only she has no mother. Now she also has a mother. She was so happy that she couldn't speak. She felt that there were colorful bubbles around her.

"Janell, I am your mom." Jane looked at Janell and said carefully.

"Mom." Janell was so happy that her hands danced and feet tripped, she said happily and then she kissed on Jane’s face.

 

Suddenly Janell felt happier. She has a loving father, a little Mia Mia who has been growing up with her, brother Lucas, and now her mother.

"Well, then." Jane kissed her Janell. She could not stop her tears falling down, "Janell, mom loves you."

"I love you too, mom." Janell with her small hands wiped away the tears from Jane’s face, and said, "Mom don’t cry, daddy will be distressed, I will be distressed too."

"Well, honey, mom won’t cry." Jane held Janell tightly.

Her tears were not due to sadness it was due to happiness.

She was glad that finally, she has recognized her daughter and that she had returned to this father and daughter as Edwin Carter’s wife and as Janell’s mother.

Edwin Carter hugged this mother and daughter together. He kissed Jane and kissed Janell. His frozen heart has finally thawed at this moment.

His wife and his daughter were in his arms.

If he can have a life like this. What else he wishes?

At this moment, Jane felt what real happiness is and what real feeling of having a home is!

In the past, Jonathan Ronan was very good to her, but she always felt that kind of care was too deliberate. He always said that he wanted to be good to her, he always said that she was his only family member.

She was touched at that time, but when she was alone, in the dark night she always felt lonely, as if she was the one abandoned by the world.

 

However, with Edwin and Janell, Edwin never said that he will be nice to her. He always cared about her with practical actions, accompanied her, and let her know that she was not alone. She had him and their daughter.

"Daddy, you are holding Janell too tightly in your arms."

Janell’s soft voice broke the atmosphere. She told Edwin Carter that he was holding them too tightly and Janell can’t even move.

"Ah, I’m sorry."

"Okay, I forgive daddy."

"All right, we forgive daddy."

This mother and daughter unconsciously formed the united front again. Edwin Carter reluctantly shook his head. It seemed that later, he will have no right to speak at all in this family.

"Mom, let’s go to see sister. I want to tell her that Janell and little Mia Mia will have a mom."

"Sure, let’s go to see sister." Jane held Janell and went to Mia Mia, completely ignoring the man beside them.

Edwin Carter shook his head helplessly again and felt that he was not as important as a dog.

Right after their marriage, Jane brought Mia Mia to live in the house, at that time, all the focus of Jane was on Mia Mian and he was completely ignored.

Now once again they let him have that kind of feeling, but his heart was happy and satisfied. He was even okay, for it was better than not having around her and to spend countless lonely nights.

Janell held Mia Mia in her arms, touched its head, and seriously introduced, "Mia Mia, now we have a mom."

 "Woof, Woof, Woof..." There were a few barking sounds. It shook its head and wagged its tail, expressing its love for its "Mom" in its unique way.

"How lovely!" Jane looked at Mia Mia in a trance and seemed to see another white Pomeranian through it.

She saw it around her, saw it in her arms in a coquettish way.

She was sure that these pictures were definitely not her imagination. She must have raised a white Pomeranian before.

Jane was confused and instinctively looked at Edwin Carter sitting beside her. Without any words, Edwin Carter has understood her mind.

He held her in his arms and said softly, "I’ll tell you more about Mia Mia later."

"Okay." she nodded.

She thought that she didn't need to doubt anything. She just has to believe in him and believes that he won’t hide anything from her, even if he hides something, it must be good for her.

"Mom, hug me and sister." Janell embraced Mia Mia, pounced into Jane’s arms, and cuddled in her mother’s arms as much as she can.

Having a mother is different from having only a father.

"Okay, from now on, mom will hold Janell and Mia Mia in her arms forever." Janell gently stroked Janell head and gently smiled.

"That’s good, Janell takes charge of teaching Taekwondo to mom and see who can learn it faster." Edwin Carter held Janell in his arms and didn’t let her continue to roll in Jane’s arms.

"Okay, I will teach my mom and make her as good as Janell." Janell answered softly.

"Four members of your family again make me feel the odd one out."

Angela’s voice came. They looked back and saw her coming downstairs with messy hair. It seemed that she has just woken up.

"Auntie, Janell, and sister have a mom. Mom has flew back." Janell proudly told it to auntie that big Jane is now her mother.

"Then auntie congratulate Janell." Angela came, pinched Janell’s red face and said hello to Jane, "Sister in law, welcome home."

It was not just that the person who was away had come back even the heart also came back.

Finally, the hostess of this villa has come back.

She has come back to her brother and Janell.

Angela was also really happy for their family. At the same time, she wishes them all the best in the future and hoped that no bad things will happen again.

CHAPTER 333 – HOW ABOUT JOINING ME FOR COFFEE?

"Angela, thank you!" Although Jane can’t remember Angela, she can feel that Angela really cared about her and Janell.

"Now you two have come back, so I will give you back Janell. Now I can also rest assured to hang out." Angela added.

She always spoke in such a disordered way. Edwin Carter could not help frowning and said, "Take Arthur Simon with you."

"Brother, thank you for your concern. But you’d better put your mind on my sister-in-law and Janell. I’m not a kid."

Angela was joking, but her heart was a little sour. When she heard Janell saying that her mother has come back, she was obviously happy, but she couldn’t help being sad.

She has seen this child waiting for more than three years for her mother. She has grown up and, today, she finally came to know what it is like to have a mother!

Who is responsible for all this?

Recently, Angela has been very lazy. She mainly wanted to show her acting skills. Several similar scripts that the agent showed her have been pushed out by her. She would rather prefer to play a wicked woman role, but she won’t play that silly sweet girl’s role again.

Life is very short, it just a few decades, why always keep the same things. If you constantly keep challenging yourself, only then life will achieve its diversity.

Of course, Victor James was an exception. It was determined by her heart. In this life, she just wanted that man.

"Polaris, where do you want to go?" Angela sat in the back seat of the car and said nothing. It seemed that she had something in her mind. Arthur Simon waited for a long time before he had asked.

"Go anywhere." For the first time, Angela didn’t know where to go.

The heavy rain had just stopped, and now it was a sunny day again, but she felt uneasy.

It was not uneasy, actually, she was feeling empty. She didn’t know where to go.

Her brother waited for more than three years, and finally, sister-in-law came back. What about her?

She has been pursuing for so many years. She saw Victor James by her side, but she can’t touch him. She has thrown away by him and always watched herself going away from him.

 

Even her trustworthy people began to doubt that Victor James has not married yet because there was another person in his heart, not because of her.

But it was only a moment when Angela was lost.

Soon, Angela said, "Arthur Simon, I asked you to bring that drug for me. Is it ready?"

"Polaris, why do you want that drug?"

Angela glared at him and said, "Just do what I asked you to do. Why are you asking so much?"

Arthur Simon hesitated for a moment, but still gave her a box, "This is not good. You can’t randomly give this drug to people."

"Meddlesome." Angela took the drug and patted Arthur Simon on the head. "I just noticed that day by day you are becoming wordy. If it goes on like this, how can you find a girlfriend?"

Arthur Simon, "..."

When Angela was so bored, she received a phone call from a strange phone number.

In the past, she wouldn’t answer such strange calls, but today she was so free that she had nothing to do. She answered.

After connecting, a nice male voice came to Angela’s ear from the handset, "Polaris, I want to invite you to have a cup of coffee, I wonder if you would like to give me this honor?"

"Son of a bitch, how dare you to call me? Do you want to see if I can kill you or not?" Angela said in her heart. She was a person who always remembered revenge, so when she heard the voice, she can recognize the man in a second.

That night, Aaron Paul, the mayor’s son that looked like a shit. She didn’t expect that he would play that dirty trick on her.

 

Angela was thinking about how to get revenge, and the son of a bitch has come to her.

Can she refuse to drink coffee with him?

Of course not!

He drugged her and at this moment she has that same drug in her hand. She will let him taste what it is like to be drugged.

Angela smiled brightly and said, "Aaron Paul called me personally to ask me for coffee. I am honored. How can I refuse?"

"Miss Polaris, I’m flattered that you agreed to give me this honor." On the phone, the man’s voice sounded very pleasant.

"Aaron Paul, now you are flattering me," Angela said politely, and her eyes reflected a sharp light. She said to herself in her heart, "I will let you know what it’s like to be flattered."

After the call, Angela received a message from the mayor’s son, and then she told Arthur Simon to drive to the appointed place.

Aaron Paul asked Angela to meet him in the downtown area. There was nothing special about the coffee shop. It was just a very ordinary shop.

Arthur Simon didn’t know that Angela was drugged last time. Angela didn’t let him follow her, and he didn’t insist. He sat in the car and waited for her.

"Polaris, here." As soon as she stepped into the cafe, she saw Aaron Paul waving to her.

She instinctively pulled her cap and covered herself, hoping that she would not be recognized, or she would be surrounded by her crazy fans.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Angela said, but she didn’t mean sorry at all.

 

She sat down opposite to Aaron Paul, "I will take a cup of caramel macchiato with no sugar."

"I don’t know if it’s our destiny. What I just ordered for you is the same."

Aaron Paul stared at Angela and said with a smile. His attitude was totally different from that night that Angela remembered.

"Aaron Paul believes in such a thing as fate, huh?"

"Why not?"

"Then I am privileged!"

"Polaris, you always like to surprise me and show me that you are different from other women." Aaron Paul, with his hands on his chin, stared at Angela and said affectionately.

This man’s appearance was really good, coupled with his personality, it’s estimated that many girls can’t resist him, but Angela didn’t fall in such traps, she moved her hair to one side, she seemed extremely sexy and said, "I also think I’m different from other women, Mr. Aaron you should be careful. Don’t fall in love with me, I’ve already got a sweetheart."

"I won’t fall in love with you. I just want to "get it on" with you." The man suddenly came close to Angela and while saying it his evil spirit was incomparable.

This was so explicit, but the woman in front of him was Angela!

In order to pursue Victor James this woman has become so cheeky that nothing can bring her down.

She smiled and moved closer to Aaron Paul and said, "Aaron Paul wants to get it on, then first I need to see if you have that ability?"

However, Angela couldn’t help feeling disgusted. When she said this to Victor James, she felt so happy but after hearing this man, she wanted to vomit.

Just wait!

He dared to drugged her. She must let this Aaron Paul get the taste of being drugged.

So that he will know who is the third person in Jiangbei City that mustn’t be provoked.

Edwin Carter and Victor James were the top two, and the third can be no other than Angela Carter!

CHAPTER 334 – HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT YOUR BIRTH

"You don’t want me? Then who do you want? Your uncle Victor James?" Aaron Paul looked at Angela and threw out a heavy bomb on her.

"You..." Angela didn’t expect that Aaron Paul would find out her identity. She was stunned but she quickly responded.

Angela was just about to speak when the waiter brought the coffee and Angela swallowed her words again. The waiter delivered the coffee and went back.

In front of them, there were two cups of hot coffee, steaming, like the tense atmosphere between them at this time.

However, after being interrupted unintentionally by the service staff, Angela has calmed down. She smiled at Aaron Paul and said, "Wow, you have found out my identity so soon. I wanted to play with you. It’s not fun to be exposed so fast."

Her identity is exposed, so what?

Anyway, it was not a shameful thing, but after the exposure, there will be several more bodyguards around. It will be a bit more troublesome. Many people will think that her previous achievements were due to her relationship with Shengtian group.

However, her arrogant brother was not someone to be reckoned with, and it was not so easy to expose her identity.

"Your real name is Angela Carter. When you were three years old, you were adopted by the Carter family. After that, you settled down in the United States. You will return home with your family on New Year’s festival. The Carter family treats you as if you were their own child, even better than their own child." Aaron Paul said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Uh-huh," Angela shrugged her shoulders casually and said with a smile, "So what? There are plenty of children like me. Why do you care?"

She often went to villa, and often went to Jiangbei military region. It was not difficult for those who wanted to find out her identity found such things.

The difficulty will be if they want to disclose her identity.

Two years ago, she met a paparazzi who was following her and secretly photographing her, but before he could spread the photos he was sent away and after that, the man never appeared in Jiangbei.

 

As before, whenever she tried to stir gossip, her brother’s men always made the news disappear at the fastest speed.

She sighed and thought that her arrogant brother’s ability at handling affairs has always been good.

The government and businessmen always have an interest relationship. If Aaron Paul’s father wants to hold the position of mayor, he must develop the city’s economy, maintain public order and so on.

Among the most important two, one is in the hands of the Carter Family and the other is in the James family. The Carter and James families must be the objects he needs to fawn on, so Angela was sure that Aaron Paul will never dare to expose her identity.

Maybe she was drugged by him last time and rescued by Victor James. Aaron Paul had doubts and then he went to find someone to check her.

Aaron Paul added, "Angela, have you never doubted your identity? Have you ever thought about your past? Don’t you think why the Carter family treats you so well?"

"The Carter family is my family. If they are not good to me, will they be good to you?" It was not easy to stir up troubles in her mind.

This son of a bitch drugged her last time and now he wanted to plant the seeds of doubt in her heart.

Does Angela look really stupid?

She just played a lot of silly roles, but she was not really silly. It seemed that she can’t take on this kind of role in the future.

She took a sip of the coffee cup and scolded the bastard silently. At the same time, she thought about how to put the medicine into his coffee cup and let him drink it.

"Angela..."

Just as Aaron Paul called Angela, she sneezed and sprayed Aaron Paul with the coffee in her mouth.

She quickly picked up the tissue and apologized, "Oh, I’m really sorry, I didn’t control it for a while. Let me wipe it for you."

 

"No need. I’ll go to the bathroom." Aaron Paul said, waving his hand.

"Okay." Angela nodded and said, "Hurry up, come back soon."

When Aaron Paul left, Angela immediately looked around. At this time, she found nothing wrong around her. The time was perfect and there was no one else in the shop except a few customers, nor did she see the security camera.

After confirming the surrounding situation, Angela quickly put the prepared medicine into Aaron Paul’s cup.

After doing this, Angela took her coffee cup and drank it. At the same time, she thought of many ways to kill the man.

Before long, Aaron Paul returned to his seat after cleaning up.

Aaron Paul didn’t drink coffee when he sat back. Angela looked at him and said with a smile, "Aaron Paul, to be honest, I just did it intentionally."

She just wanted to kill the bastard. She wanted to drug him and beat him to death.

"I know."

"You know?"

What the fuck! How does he know?

Angela can’t help rolling her eyes.

Her best actress award was not got with money. How can he see through such a good performance?

Aaron Paul raised his cup of coffee and frowned but soon he returned to his normal state again. He chatted with Angela while drinking coffee.

“Angela, you really never thought about who your biological parents are? You don’t want to know what they used to do. You don’t want to know your real birth?"

 

"It’s none of your business." This man was really interfering too much. It was really annoying.

Her own parents?

They can abandon her when she was only three years old. Why do they expect her to grow up and recognize them?

She wasn’t a miserable wretch and she didn’t need to find things to make herself feel even more stressed or annoyed.

"Angela…"

"Don’t call me this way. Who do you think you are?" This man really has a death wish. She wanted to slap him twice so that he can know his right place.

If she didn’t have to drug him she wouldn’t be bothered to listen to his bullshit here.

It was really strange that she fainted just after taking the drug last time. But this bastard didn’t react at all after drinking for so long. He seemed to be in a good state.

When Angela thought that the thing had no effect, Aaron Paul shook his head and fell on the table with a bang sound.

Angela reached out and patted him on the face, "Hey, Aaron Paul, are you ok? How can you get drunk with coffee?"

No respond.

That’s good. It seemed that drug has an effect.

Angela satisfactorily smiled in her heart, son of a bitch, today, I will clean you up.

CHAPTER 335 – LOOKING FOR HER FOR MORE THAN TEN YEARS

Aaron Paul was a very tall and robust man and his weight wasn’t something that Angela can handle. She can’t carry him alone, so she has to ask Arthur Simon for help.

However, when it came to Arthur Simon, Angela had the impulse to cut him into pieces.

He has been with her for many years, but he was still a dumb ass. She asked him to help carry this person. He should only carry.

But he talked too much nonsense.

He even preached to her that it’s wrong to take away people in dizziness in this way. What if his family call the police, etc.

Angela couldn’t hear any more. She decided to change her bodyguard. She will send Arthur Simon back from where he has come.

Call the police?

In her life, is it the first time that she is doing something like this?

Every time she created trouble, in fact, the police had to send her home obediently, as if they were the ones who did the wrong thing.

 

It took Angela a long time to take Aaron Paul to the suburb, the third person in Jiangbei that cannot be provoked, and she beat him into a pig’s head.

But even after beating him, Angela felt that it was not enough to relieve her anger. He asked Arthur Simon to bring a pen and wrote two lines on Aaron’s swollen face - Bastard, I’m the third person you can’t provoke.

After all this, Angela shook her hair happily and said in a loud voice, "Arthur Simon, let’s go. Leave this pig here for a night."

Arthur Simon hesitated, "Polaris, isn’t it wrong? What if..."

Angela was about to kick Arthur Simon, "Shut up! If you say one more word to me today, I’ll fire you."

Arthur Simon shut his mouth and didn’t dare to say a word again. He just drove Angela away.

 

The proud Angela left and she didn’t even know that as her car left, the unconscious man immediately opened his eyes. He turned over and sat up neatly, clapped his hands, and immediately someone appeared beside him, "Mr. Aaron Paul, are you ok?"

"Her little trick can’t hurt me." Aaron Paul dusted down his suit  and said, "no one is allowed to leak any information about this matter without my order."

He has been looking for her for more than ten years. He went to many countries and mistakenly recognized countless people. This time, he has found the right person, but he also couldn’t believe that it was true.

It was definitely not an accident to find Angela. He occasionally saw her in a video of an award ceremony and saw her familiar face. He thought that she might be the person he was looking for.

In order to hide her past, the old man of the Carter family made secret efforts one after another. It took him two years to solve the secrets one after another.

It was exciting to find someone whom he has been looking for more than ten years, so it didn’t matter if he let her vent her anger.

It was just that he has found her and it means that others can also find her, so he has to speed up his pace, find out what he didn’t know before, and return her parents’ innocence so that he can show Angela’s past life to the world.

Before doing all these things, he should go to meet Mr. Michael’s own daughter – Jane Ronan!

...

After taking revenge, Angela’s mood was extremely happy. On her way back, she called Victor James to show off.

"Victor James, guess what I just did?"

The other side didn’t respond.

"Victor James, that day I was drugged by Aaron Paul, remember? And he asked me to have coffee, so I had a date with him."

The person over there still ignored her.

Angela flattened her mouth, "He asked me to drink coffee. I put the drug in his coffee, and he fainted."

From the other side, she heard the sound of his cold breath.

 

Victor James finally gave a reaction. Angela said more proudly, "I not only drugged him but also dragged him to the countryside to beat him, which made him unrecognizable even to his mother."

There was no response from the people over there. Angela had to wonder if he was listening to her.

Angela shouted back in a loud voice, "Victor James, I’m talking to you. What’s the matter with you?"

After long, Victor James’s voice came from the phone, "Angela, don’t you often say that you have grown up. So please remember, no matter what happened, wipe your ass clean. Don’t bother your brother and me, especially me."

Before she could say anything else, Victor James hung up the phone.

Angela smashed her cell phone on the window.

Arthur Simon took a look at Angela in the rearview mirror. He wanted to say something, but when he saw her fierce appearance, he said nothing.

Talking to Angela at this time will be like asking for hardship, so he’d better learn to be smart.

Angela was angrier, and said angrily, "Arthur Simon, even you don’t care about me?"

She was such a hard master to serve. She just warned him not to talk to her.

At this moment, he was quiet, but he has been scolded by her.

Arthur Simon complained, "Polaris, you didn’t allow me to say a word."

"I told you not to speak and you stopped speaking. When do you become so obedient?" Angela also realized that her attitude was not right, but she cannot apologize to Arthur Simon.

 

She didn’t say anything and finally looked out of the window, left and right, deliberately not to see Arthur Simon.

After calming down, Angela begun to think of what Aaron Paul said to her today.

Who are her biological parents?

Why did they abandon her?

Over the years, she said she didn’t think about them, but occasionally she thought, maybe they didn’t really want to abandon her. They had some unspeakable difficulties.

But what difficulties can let parents abandon their children?

In Angela’s view, there was nothing that can let parents abandon their children except death.

Is it because her parents left the world and couldn’t take care of her anymore that she was adopted by the Carter family?

She was adopted by the Carter family when she was very young. She had no memory of the previous events. She didn’t know what her parents looked like, what they did, why they abandoned her.

Carter’s family raised her and loved her. She has become an integral part of Carter’s family, so she said to herself to love them and to not think about her own parents.

But today, after hearing from Aaron Paul, her heart was also in turmoil. She was also an ordinary person, and she also wanted to know who her own biological parents were.

However, the next second she thought that grandpa, mom, and dad never mentioned her real parents to her. Probably it wasn’t a good thing.

She didn’t want to fall into Aaron Paul’s scheme. She didn’t want to think about her own parents. For her, it was important to find a way to catch up with Victor James.

CHAPTER 336 – REGAINED LOST MEMORY

Jane never thought that Janell would accept her identity as a mother so soon. She felt so warm and satisfied.

In the evening, she and Edwin Carter go to sleep with Janell. When she opened her eyes in the morning, she always saw Janell at first sight and when she looked aside, she always found Edwin Carter sitting by the window and reading the newspaper. As Edwin Carter noticed that she has woken up, he always looked up at her and smiled.

It has been the same for several days.

They were living a very ordinary life, but it was very peaceful.

These days, she has regained many lost memories.

For example, she remembered many things about Laura Ferdinand, about their school days, she also remembered Christopher Grayson and Sophie Ronan’s betrayal, and then how she came to Jiangbei with Laura Ferdinand.

But after coming to Jiangbei, her mind just came up with some fragmentary pictures, and other things she still can’t remember clearly.

Maybe the reason why she can’t remember other things was that Edwin Carter had already told her too much. What he said has been integrated with her memory. She can’t even tell what is in her memory and what is absorbed from others.

With this thought, Jane sighed in silence.

Edwin Carter and Janell were not at home. This time was the most boring for her.

She was so bored and the only choice she has was to sit in the studio, paint, play with her imagination and draw her inner thoughts.

After knowing that she is Edwin Carter’s wife and Janell’s mother, Jane was not in a hurry to design their three wedding dresses.

Edwin Carter said that they hadn’t had a wedding. So when she regains her lost memory they will arrange a wedding.

Although Edwin Carter was her husband, she still wanted to hold the wedding when she completely gets back her lost memory.

What a sacred and romantic thing a wedding is.

She also didn’t want to do it with her incomplete memory.

In any case, she thought she should wait to think about her and Edwin Carter’s past completely, and then they will choose the wedding time, after that she will design the dresses of their family by herself.

 Just as Jane was thinking, Linda, the housekeeper, came to report, "Miss Jane, the old master is here. He asked you to meet him in the living room."

"Old master?" Jane thought about him and asked, "Edwin’s grandfather?"

"Yes, he is the old master." Linda replied respectfully.

Jane didn’t know much about Edwin’s grandfather. She heard Edwin mentioning it, but not detailedly. Edwin had said that when he came back from a business trip three years ago, his grandfather gave him a box of her ashes.

But she was alive. How grandfather gave that box of ashes to him?

There was a mystery in this matter. It was just that all the memories of the past hadn't retrieved yet, and she didn’t know what has happened actually.

In Jane’s present memory, there was no such person as the old master, but when she heard him looking for her, she instinctively wanted to not meet him. However, he was an elder, and she had no reason to refuse to meet him.

Jane nodded and said to Linda, "I’ll come downstairs in a moment."

"Okay." Linda said and went back.

Since the last time Edwin Carter called all the servants in his family together to talk, everyone has a very good attitude towards Jane. No one ever dared to neglect her orders.

Linda regarded Jane as the hostess, and her attitude towards Jane was the same as towards Edwin Carter.

Jane went to the living room. When she entered the room, she saw the old man sitting on the sofa, talking to the assistant standing beside him in a low voice.

 

They had turned their backs to the door, so they did not notice Jane’s presence. Jane could only see their backs, not their faces.

Jane stood at the door, pursed her lips subconsciously, waited for a moment and then walked to them.

Assistant Joseph standing behind the old man, heard Jane’s footsteps and looked back at her.

Jane saw his assistant’s face and his cold eyes clearly.

As Jane saw his face, for a moment, Jane felt that a bolt from the blue came to her, and all the past pictures flashed in her mind.

It’s him. It’s him, it’s the man, it’s the same face!

She often saw him in her dream for the past three years.

Every midnight when she dreamt, he always smiled coldly, stabbed her with a big syringe and injected the unknown liquid into her body.

After seeing this face that appears in her dream for countless times, Jane only felt that she has been trapped in an endless nightmare.

It seemed the black whirlpool was swallowing her…

"No, don’t come here, let me go, please let me go, go away..." Jane covered her ears, yelled and screamed. She completely lost her consciousness.

Instinctively, she turned around and wanted to run. However, before she could run away, assistant Joseph approached and blocked her way.

He still smiled as he did three years ago, "Madam, unexpectedly, we met again."

"No, don’t hurt my child." At this time, it seemed that Jane went back to the day three years ago when she was locked in the car, she called loudly, she shouted but no one came to help her, she called Edwin Carter, but Edwin Carter was far away in the west.

 

She couldn’t do anything but to look at the man in front of her asking someone to inject her.

She also heard the man calling grandfather.

Later, she knew nothing.

When she had a little consciousness, she was laying on the cold and bloody operating bed. She saw the doctors cutting her abdomen and watched them taking Janell out of her abdomen.

She heard the cry of the child and wanted to hug her child. But she couldn’t pronounce a syllable, she could only watch her child being carried away by them, and vaguely heard that their mother had passed away.

At that moment, she understood that the old master didn’t just want her to leave Edwin Carter. He wanted her life.

Later, the doctor sewed her wound, and grandpa’s assistant took someone to inject some medicine into her. Later, she really didn’t know anything.

By the time she woke up, she had been lying in a hospital in Milan, and she didn’t even know how she had been taken there.

When she woke up, the person beside her was Jonathan Ronan. At that time, he held her and cried for a long time, and said something like he would not survive without her.

At that time, she forgot the past things, and everything was told to her by Jonathan Ronan.

From that day on, she was no longer a real Jane. She has become a puppet manipulated by Jonathan Ronan.

Jonathan Ronan used disguised love to tie her firmly and distort her past life arbitrarily.

CHAPTER 337 – ARRIVED IN TIME

"Madam, the old master wants to see you, and he can’t eat people. Why are you so scare?" Joseph grabbed Jane’s wrist, trying to bring her back to the old master.

Joseph’s voice pulled Jane back from her thoughts. She bit her lips and raised her hand to slap him.

Her slap was quick and fierce, which was totally unexpected for the assistant.

He didn’t realize that he can be been beaten by this woman until he got a hot slap on his face.

 

"You…" he raised his hand and wanted to slap back, but when he thought of his status, he reluctantly took back his hand.

Jane bit her teeth and tried to keep her trembling body steady. Soon her emotion became stable. She glanced at the assistant and turned to the old man who was watching her.

Grandpa’s eyes were cold and insidious as if he wanted to push her into a situation that could never be undone.

In front of her, the old man, who used to have a loving face, was gone at this moment. Because she was the only one here, he didn’t have to pretend.

Three years ago, Jane fell into their traps. She knew how cruel their means are.

Because of these two men, she has lost her previous memory. They made her leave her husband. They made her baby have no mother.

 

If she wants to revenge them for the things that these two people have done before, she has to do more than pulling their sinews, peeling their skin, letting them go back to the furnace and rebuild, and letting them learn how to behave like a human.

But Jane understood very well that there was no way to fight with these two men only by her own ability.

The servants in the house must be sent away by the old man. At this time, there were only three of them in the huge living room. If they do anything to her, she cannot resist.

She put down the fear in her heart and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead. She can’t be stupid, she can only think of ways to drive these people away.

Assistant added, "We’re here today to make a deal with you."

 

"Talk to me about the deal?" With a cold smile, Jane said, "I am a person who has no memory of the past. What else do you want from me?"

Assistant said, "Many years ago, your mother must have left one thing to you. It was your biological father who left it to her. Just give it to us. After that, no one will disturb your life."

"Just say what you want. Don’t play charades with me here." The memory of Jane was still incomplete. She wanted to think of something special left by her mother for a while, but she can’t remember it at all.

Moreover, even if it comes to mind, it was also a gift from her father to her mother. How could she give her mother’s relics to others, especially to these two people in front of her?

"The thing that your mother has given you, that important thing." Joseph said, paying attention to Jane’s look, trying to find some clues from her eyes, but he was disappointed. In Jane’s eyes, he just saw disgust.

Joseph wanted to say something else, but he was interrupted by his master. The old man slowly stood up and gave a slight cough. In his loud voice, he said, "Jane, don’t worry, think slowly, and tell us."

He still had a tone like an elder speaking to the younger. If people listen to him, they cannot feel strange.

But Jane heard another meaning. The old man was threatening her. As long as she handed over what they wanted, everything will be better. If she didn’t, they would deal with her.

What special thing has left by her mother?

And why the old master came here to ask her to hand over it to him?

Grandpa Carter got up to leave. However, when he looked ahead, he saw Edwin Carter standing at the door.

They didn’t know when Edwin Carter came here.

He was wearing a white shirt and black pent that he often wears from the past two years. He was standing upright and still without doing anything, but his powerful breath was still overwhelming.

Edwin Carter called the security personnel and said in a cold voice, "Old master is going back, see off the guests. He is old and in poor health, let him stay in the farmhouse. If anyone did something carelessly and wouldn’t take good care of him, I will see him."

 

He said that the old man is in bad health. But he really means that the old man should be watched. He can’t be released without his permission in the future.

If grandpa Carter hasn’t come home to find Jane and created this trouble today, Edwin Carter wouldn’t have used this method.

Now, this method has been used and it seemed that he officially announced that the relationship between him and Grandpa Carter has come to an end. I’ll see you later. No one is who he is.

"Leon, you want to control my actions?" The old man snorted coldly and said with a smile, "Don’t forget that you are brought up and taught by me. I know your way of doing things very well. If you want to control my actions, I’ll see if you have that ability to do it in another 20 years."

"Please go back! Let me see it." Edwin Carter didn’t look at the old man directly and said this.

He has been in business since he was about ten years old, now he has become the most famous and youngest business leader in the world.

Does his lovely grandfather think he gets such a high reputation just because he took over Shengtian?

"All right! All right, now have you have grown up. You have become independent, you can..." before grandpa could finish saying he started coughing.

Although it was not the first time for Edwin Carter to turn against him for this woman, grandpa Carter was still very angry.

Joseph hurriedly helped old master and said worriedly, "Old master, don’t be angry. If you’re angry, you can only watch Shengtian for that you have worked hard falling into someone else’s hands."

Joseph said this to Edwin Carter but the latter ignored it and looked at them coldly.

Edwin Carter did not look at Jane until the two men were sent away, and after that his eyes became tender.

He strode to Jane’s side, pulled her into his arms, and said softly, "Jane, it’s ok, I’m here."

Jane rubbed hard in his arms, then stretched out her arms and tightly wrapped them around his thin waist, "I’m not afraid. Actually, I’m very happy."

Edwin Carter raised her chin and asked softly, "are you sure you happy?"

Jane pouted her mouth, "I am not stupid, of course, I know that I am happy."

She was happy that grandfather brought Assistant Joseph and after seeing their faces she finally put together those fragmentary memories.

CHAPTER 338 – WILLING TO DO EVERYTHING WITH HER

"Yeah?" Edwin Carter rubbed his chin lightly on her head and said in a low, sexy and gentle voice, "then tell me, what made you happy?"

Jane blinked her eyelashes and said softly, "When I’m in trouble, you came back in time to help me, so I’m very happy."

It was no longer like three years ago, she fell into the plot and she called him but he did not come back.

Three years ago, she was lying alone on the cold and bloody operating table, watching them taking their child out of her abdomen, but she couldn’t do anything.

Her heart was in despair. She fell into the endless darkness and felt that she would never have a future. She would never see her husband or her baby again.

Today when Jane regained her lost memory, she was still as frightened and scared as she was three years ago.

 

In front of Carter family’s old master and his assistant, the fear was particularly unbearable. She was so worried that this she would not escape their claws again.

When she was worried, when she was at a loss, Edwin Carter returned to her side in time.

When she saw his tall and upright figure at the door, she seemed to see him coming with colorful auspicious clouds, he looked so dazzling.

Just after seeing him, her uneasy heart calmed down and the feeling of fear flew away.

This man, her husband, came to her side when everyone abandoned her. He spoke in a low magnetic voice - Jane, I am here!

This man stood beside her when someone targeted her with her past, he came to her and said - your past has nothing to do with me, I only care about your future. Don’t forget, you have the strongest backer.

 

When her mother died and she was alone, he came to her and said - Jane, you have me.

Yes, no matter where she went, no matter what she did, she always felt a strong power in her heart to support her.

Before, she didn’t understand what it was.

Today, she has understood that this power has given to her by him.

Her past, her life that she spent with him slowly floated in her mind and radially it became the most real memories of her past.

She is his wife. He is her husband, and together they have a child.

"Sorry, Jane, I came back late." Edwin Carter apologized.

As soon as he received the news that grandpa has come to the villa, he hurried back at the fastest speed, but still, Jane faced the old man alone for so long.

"Mr. Carter, you are not late at all." Jane gave him a sweet smile.

If he had come back too early, she mightn't have seen old master Carter and his assistant and she may not remember the past without being stimulated.

"Jane," Edwin Carter rubbed her hard when he saw that she was comforting him.

This silly girl, always thought about him, why she didn’t think about herself more?

At this time, he came to her side, she can vent all the emotions, rather than bearing everything alone. However, in this way, she made him more distressed.

Jane was in his arms and said softly, "Edwin-"

Edwin Carter rubbed her head, "yes?"

She looked up at him, blinked her big beautiful eyes, and said, "Can you promise me something?"

Edwin Carter nodded, "say it."

"Promise me first."

"You tell me first."

"Then I won’t say."

"Okay, I promise."

After hearing that he promised, Jane chuckled and pressed down her little nervousness and shyness. She stood on her toes and kissed him at the corner of his mouth.

After the kiss, she wanted to run, but Edwin Carter dragged her back. He hugged her and whispered, "Jane, tell me, what happened?"

 

"Nothing. I just want to kiss you." She just wanted to kiss him, there was no other reason.

"Is it?" Edwin Carter doubted Jane’s abnormal behavior.

He pushed her out of his arms, held her shoulder and looked at her quietly.

When she came back, she was a person with incomplete memory, so she was not as close to him as before. Even though they had already had a relationship, she had not offered to kiss him.

Three years ago, before they separated, she had been mischievous but she was too shy to kiss him.

With this, all of a sudden Edwin Carter’s mind flashed another thought.

Did Jane have restored her memory?

Did she remember him?

He was so excited but he couldn’t ask. He just looked at Jane and asked her with his eyes. He just hoped that she would give him a positive answer.

"Mr. Carter, don’t you like me kissing you? Why are you looking at me like this?" She knew he liked it. She made fun of him on purpose.

"I like it." Edwin Carter didn’t dare to ask directly if she has recovered her memory. He was worried that his question makes her feel pressured and stressed. He didn’t want her to feel a trace of depression and discomfort.

"Can you go with me to a place?"

"Sure."

Jane didn’t say where she wanted him to come with her but Edwin Carter readily agreed. No matter what the situation was, he would always accompany her whenever she asks him to accompany her.

In the past, Jane has almost spelled it out, but she didn’t tell Edwin Carter, because she didn’t know how to tell Edwin Carter what your grandfather did to me.

 

No matter how unforgivable old master Carter has done, he was still Edwin Carter’s grandfather. They have a blood relationship that can’t be broken, so Jane won’t have the heart to let Edwin Carter do this difficult thing.

He didn’t want her to be hurt, and she also didn’t want to hurt him.

She wanted to protect him from any dilemma.

Edwin Carter was a very strong man. No one outside can hurt him. Only his blood relations and family can hurt him.

The place that Jane asked Edwin Carter to accompany her was their apartment to Mengke City, where they lived when they were newly married.

She said that she wanted to go there and have a look if she could think of something more. However, actually, she wanted to live a simple and ordinary life with him again.

Every day when he came back from work, she was busy cooking in the kitchen, waiting for him to come back. She didn’t realize how good that feeling was before, but now she was full of happiness.

Jane pushed Edwin Carter into his study and said, "Mr. Carter, go and do your work first. I’ll call you to eat when it’s ready."

"Jane, do you..."

"What?"

She knew what he wanted to ask, but she pretended that she didn’t understand.

She blinked her innocent big eyes and looked at him innocently.

CHAPTER 339 – THERE IS A SPY (PART 1)

Jane was reluctant to say, and Edwin Carter never forced her, he always tried his best to respect her personal choices.

Edwin Carter said, "Then I'll go to the study to deal with some work."

There were a lot of things to deal with at hand. If it wasn't for Jane, Edwin Carter wouldn't come here at this time.

"Well, go ahead." Jane accompanied him to the door of study, came back to the kitchen, put on the apron and started her work.

She picked up vegetables. Her skills of cooking wasn’t as sharp as before, but it was still good.

It didn't take long, she cooked three main dishes and one soup. She looked at the food cooked by her and felt very confident about her cooking.

She knocked on the door of the study again, she went in and asked, "Mr. Carter, the meal is ready. If you are free, come to eat."

Edwin Carter smiled at her and said, "Mrs. Carter, please give Mr. Carter a few more minutes."

Jane showed an okay gesture to him and said, "Do your work first. I am not in a hurry here. I can wait for you."

She can wait for him - a very simple sentence uttered by Jane directly hit Edwin Carter’s heart and for half a minute he just felt it without thinking anything.

Jane gently closed the door of the study, stepped out first, sat on the sofa in the living room, watched TV and looked at the front.

It seemed that Jane again saw Mia Mia jumping in front of her.

In the past, when she watched TV programs, in order to attract her attention, Mia Mia either jumped in front of her or ran to her arms to cuddle. While doing all this she seemed very cute.

Edwin Carter told her that when she left, Mia Mia also left. She left this world forever and went to another paradise. Now, she would never see her again in her life.

Mia Mia has spent many tough days with Jane. She accompanied Jane in walking out of the dark. She thought Jane had left this world, so she also stopped eating and drinking and left the world quietly to follow Jane.

These thoughts made Jane sad, she took a deep breath and said in her heart, "Mia Mia, in another world, you must be good. If there is a chance, we will meet again in the next life."

The doorbell rang suddenly, startling Jane, who was immersed in the memories of her past life. She got up, and Edwin Carter also came out of the study.

Edwin Carter went to open the door before Jane. Jane looked up and wondered who can come here at this time.

CHAPTER 340 – THERE IS A SPY (PART 2)

They didn't often live here. They just came here, and someone came to visit them. It seemed that they were followed for a long time.

Edwin Carter talked with the person for a while.

bWhen Jane was about to listen attentively, Edwin Carter stepped back and closed the door.

He looked back at Jane's eyes, shrugged and said, "It was related to work."

Edwin Carter didn't want to tell many things to her. It wasn't that he didn't trust her, actually, he didn't want her to get involved and worry about those things.

However, there were some things that Jane knew, and she couldn't pretend that she didn’t know.

Jane stared at Edwin Carter, thought for a while and said, "Edwin, do you know how I come to know that you installed a tracking bug in the amulet Janell gave me?"

 

Edwin Carter knew that Jane had found the bug. She didn't tell him, and he didn’t ask her. They pretended that nothing had happened.

Jane suddenly mentioned it and Edwin Carter didn't know what to say for a while. He was worried, but he was also happy.

He was worried that she would blame him. He was happy that she finally opened her heart and was willing to tell him what she didn't want to say to him before.

"I came out from Jonathan Ronan’s house that day. I took a taxi. It didn't take long. The driver showed me a note. He told me that there is a tracking bug in the amulet," Jane said.

"The taxi driver told you?" It was obvious that the taxi driver was not a real driver. But they didn’t know who the taxi driver was.

Jane nodded and said, "there are not many people who knows that you installed a bug on that amulet, right? But the taxi driver knew it. He knew that there was a bug, and he also knew the exact location of it, it means he got accurate information."

 

Jane looked at Edwin Carter, pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment and said again, "I suspect that someone is spying on you."

There must be a spy. Otherwise, how could anyone know so clearly and tell her? Actually they wanted to spoil Jane and Edwin Carter’s relationship.

She was very happy that she followed her heart, did not blame Edwin Carter and was not misled by those who had the intention to separate them.

Now that she has recovered her memory and she knew how much Edwin Carter cared for her.

When she had nightmares in the middle of the night, he called her to wake her up, and he always tried to bring her from dark to light. That proved that he cared about her and guarded her all the time.

"Well, I'll check it. Don't worry about it." When Jane took out the bug and went to Kyoto alone, Edwin Carter knew that there must be a spy around him.

However, he didn't say anything because he didn't want to alert the actual enemies. His any action at this time will be like beating the grass to scare the snake.

He was waiting for an appropriate opportunity. At that time, he will lead the snake out of the hole and left no place for the spy around him to hide.

When it came to the spy, Edwin Carter's face was relaxed as if he didn't care at all, but Jane was worried.

How could she not worry with the thought that there was always a pair of eyes behind him and they always watched his every move?

Jane added, "Edwin, promise me that no matter what happens, you will protect yourself well. No matter when you will never forget that you still have Janell and me."

Edwin Carter rubbed her head and smiled softly, "what can happen? Don’t scare yourself. Let's go to dinner first."

"Edwin..." Jane rushed to him and hugged him. "Let’s make it clearly then we will go to dinner."

"What do you want me to say?" He really had no way to not agree to her.

"Promise me that you would take good care of yourself and never let yourself suffer a little injury." Jane was very serious, and her eyes were full of concern for him.

Edwin Carter rubbed her head and said with a gentle smile, "I will protect myself."

Because if he protects himself well, he will be able to protect his wife and daughter.

Edwin Carter held Jane's face, leaned over and kissed her, then said, "Jane, hold my hand and never leave it."

"I will never leave you." Jane moved closer to kiss him again, but before she can, she was caught by Edwin Carter.

CHAPTER 341 – TWO HEARTS THAT ARE UNITED (PART 1)

Edwin Carter held Jane's head and looked at her quietly. She was so shy that she quickly closed her eyes. Her face was rosy. It seemed as if she was waiting for him to pick her.

Edwin Carter couldn’t help laughing. He put his thin lips on her, kissed her tenderly, and tasted her unique taste.

A kiss that was lingering, tender and intoxicating…

After a long time, Edwin Carter licked her lips, let her go and called her name in a seductive voice, "Jane…"

"Yeah?"

"Promise me, you won’t worry about anything, leave everything to me."

Is he a roundworm in her stomach?

When she just wanted to do something by herself, he always came to know before and asked her to not do anything.

However, she has experienced those terrible things that were carved in bones and engraved in her heart, she can stop mentioning them but she can’t forget.

 

Edwin Carter said, "If you want to participate in it, you can say it. We can discuss it together and do what you want to do, okay?"

Jane, "Edwin..."

Edwin Carter said, "Jane, okay?"

His voice was low and sexy, still as good as before, but there were some heartache and helplessness, Jane felt his heartache, leaned on his arms and nodded gently.

He didn't say it without reason.

She didn't have any power of her own. If she went to fight with old master Carter alone, she would suffer in the end.

If she got injured again, it would be more hurtful for Edwin Carter than anything else.

She didn't want to hurt him.

"I promise you that I will talk with you no matter what I do, and I will never make a decision without your permission," Jane promised.

"Never lie to me."

"I won’t."

"Then let’s go to eat."

"Well, okay."

At the dinner table, Edwin Carter, who used to eat without speaking, seemed totally change!

He took a sip of the soup that Jane had served him and nodded his head, "I haven't had your soup for so long, it seems that your cooking skills become better."

"I'll make soup for you every day."

"Sure."

Jane served the food to Edwin Carter again, blinked and asked playfully, "I heard that you have a habit of cleanliness. Would you like to eat the dish that I give you?"

"I've eaten your saliva."

"..." Jane didn’t know what to say.

How can this man become so bad?

How could he be so glib-tongued?

Where did Edwin Carter, who used to place himself above the common populace has gone?

"I'm also the father of a child. I've had a lot of experience."

 

She didn't know how, but it seemed if he can see what she had in her mind. Edwin Carter added another sentence, and her face was even redder.

What can she say to this man?

He can take any meaning from her words. So she thought it is better to stay quiet.

She took a look at him and reached out to pinch him, but he grabbed her hand and pinched the palm of her hand.

"Jane…"

His voice was deep and low, and his eyes were fixed on her as if she was his prey.

CHAPTER 342 – TWO HEARTS ARE UNITED (PART 2)

"Edwin, let’s eat first."

At first glance, she knew what this man had in his mind.

Even while eating he started to think those adult things!

But with the thought that he has endured everything silently for three years made Jane very distressed. She can’t even imagine how much patience a man needed to endure all that alone.

As soon as Jane's voice fell, Edwin Carter picked her up. He held her straight to the bathroom and said, "Let’s have a rest first and then we will eat."

"Edwin Carter, what do you want to do?"

"You don't know what I want to do?"

Unfortunately, now Jane has become Edwin’s "food" and he was going to eat her.

She thought, in his eyes she maybe like a delicious and tasty snack.

 

He didn't eat the dessert at all. Instead, he first enjoyed the beauty of the desert, then smelled its fragrance, and finally ate it.

Jane wanted to hit him. This man was really different from his appearance. When he took off his clothes, he didn’t seem that he was that noble and reserved chairman Carter, he became a beast.

She stopped talking and didn't want to talk to him.

She said to him to eat dinner, and she ended up being eaten by him.

"Jane…"

Jane ignored him.

"Do you bring me here because it’s more convenience here for us to make...."

Jane stretched out her hand and covered Edwin Carter's mouth. She glared at him viciously, "Mr. Carter, don’t you think you are too lascivious recently?"

 

Edwin Carter was slightly stunned, then nodded, "Yes when I see you, I become what you just said."

Jane, "..."

She decided not to tell the man about her memory recovery, otherwise, she couldn’t imagine how would he torcher her.

"I'm tired... I'll get up later for dinner." Edwin Carter held Jane in his arms and lightly touched the scar on her abdomen with one hand.

His hand touched the scar on her abdomen, which was a little itchy, and she could not help but shrink her neck, "this scar is so ugly, do you feel disgusting?"

"Fool, how can I feel disgusting?" He just felt distressed.

Every time he saw this scar that was almost half the length of the ordinary pregnant woman's cesarean section, he had heartache when he thought what she had suffered.

"I used to think it was ugly, but when I came to know it was because of Janell my mind changed, now I don’t think that it is ugly." Jane leaned in his arms and said with great pride.

She always thought that she was single, in her limited memory she has no trace of love and she was unable to experience a mother's mood.

However, when she saw Janell at first sight, she liked her very much. She wanted to take Janell home and raise her as her own daughter. When she came to know Janell was her child, she was not shocked at that moment. She only had joy, as if her dream had finally come true.

Edwin Carter didn't answer, he just pulled Jane closer.

Jane said again, "in the past three years, I lived like a walking corpse, and there was almost no emotion in my life. During work, I devoted myself to fashion designing."

She thought it was because she was just interested in fashion designing and she was a person who had no other desire in life.

In fact, it wasn't, actually, she was instinctively on guard against Jonathan Ronan. Even she believed that Jonathan Ronan was her only family, she still didn't want to tell him everything.

She alone faced all the ups and downs and never mentioned anything to Jonathan Ronan.

However, when she met Edwin Carter, she didn’t feel the need to tell him anything. He was much clearer than her.

Jane shared the experiences and feelings of these past three years in detail.

Edwin Carter hugged her and listened to her quietly.

CHAPTER 343 – ACT TOGETHER (PART 1)

Although Edwin Carter didn’t personally experience the loneliness that Jane has experienced, he could understand and imagine Jane's helplessness and fear.

"Jane…"

"Yes?" She was tired, lying in his arms, she vaguely answered, and her brain had fallen asleep.

...I'm sorry!

I didn't protect you well. My family hurt you so badly, but I’ll never have such things happen again.

Trust me...

...

Edwin Carter's Jane has come back. She’s still a little astute, a little naughty, a little savage and a little shy.

Whenever Edwin thought of Jane, he felt that his body was infused with continuous strength, and he feel full of energy no matter what he has to do.

 

Edwin Carter was thinking about Jane. He looked at the time and there was still a while before the meeting time. He dialed Jane's phone, "what are you doing?"

"I was thinking about you and just now I finished thinking. Now, I'm going out to meet Jonathan Ronan." The gentle voice of Jane came to Edwin Carter's ear.

He heard her tone. Edwin Carter couldn't help smiling and said, "How long have you thought about me?"

The voice in the mobile phone with a little smile came again, "thought for several minutes."

Edwin Carter added, "Jonathan Ronan is a cunning and treacherous man. I don't want you to go to him alone. You..."

Before Edwin Carter could finish, he was interrupted by Jane’s voice, "Mr. Carter, do you want to renege what you said yesterday?"

 

Yesterday, she told him what she had in her mind, and they discussed it.

She said she would go to meet Jonathan Ronan and pretended to cooperate with him and in this way, she will uncover the secrets of the Carter family's old master from Jonathan Ronan's mouth.

Last night, when he was in bed, he promised her that she can go to meet Jonathan Ronan alone.

Now he has left the bed, and he was reneging?

Edwin Carter, "What did I say to you?"

Jane, "..."

Sure enough, it has been said that never believe the thing that a man says in bed.

It seemed that Mr. Carter was no exception.

Edwin Carter said, "Okay, you can go. I'll let people follow you, and I’ll eavesdrop on your side. Don't worry."

Mr. Carter, why I am feeling that you won't let me escape from the palm of your hand in this life?"

Edwin Carter, "do you want to escape?"

Jane shook her head instinctively, but thought that he could not see that, she said, "If you're not good to me, I will escape at any time."

Edwin Carter's deep and low laugh reached Jane's ear, "I won't let you escape."

Jane blushed and said, "I will hang up now."

Edwin Carter nodded, "Okay."

Just after the conversation with Jane, Luis George knocked on the door, came in, walked to Edwin Carter's desk, and respectfully said, "Chairman Carter, we found a man who has been tracking Polaris's real identity. From the past two days, his people are watching Mrs. Carter."

CHAPTER 344 – ACT TOGETHER (PART 2)

Edwin Carter picked up the document and opened it. He turned it quickly, but in terms of his ability to read at a glance, it was not very quick.

Edwin Carter turned the pages and asked, "What’s the relationship between the man and Jiangbei’s mayor?"

Luis George said, "Actually their surname is the same. He and the mayor's son are good friends. The mayor's son seldom appears in public. Many people think that he is the mayor's son. In fact, his real identity is state A’s national. It will take some time to find out his specific identity."

While listening to Luis George, Edwin Carter has finished reading the documents in his hand. "Pay close attention to his recent actions and report everything to me," he said.

Luis George nodded, "yes."

Edwin Carter said, "Is there any news from Victor James recently?"

Luis George said, "No. His life has always been very regular. Apart from sleeping time, he spent the rest of the time in the military region."

Edwin Carter asked again, "What about George Michael?"

Luis George said, "Mr. George Michael has been dead for more than 20 years. It was judged to be just an car accident at that time, and it has already been settled. Now, if we turn over the data, the result will be the same. It's hard to find new clues."

Luis George asked his subordinate to follow the clues given by Edwin Carter one by one. When it seemed that everything was on the verge to appear things go to a dead end and the clue was suddenly cut off.

Edwin Carter said, "Is there anything at the old man’s side?"

Luis George said, "I’ve been watching the old master. He has been on the farm in recent days and had no contact with anyone."

 

Edwin Carter was very clear of what the old man was doing. At this time, he didn't contact anyone because of any restrictions. In fact, he cut off the contact so that Edwin Carter’s people can't search any clues.

But the old man also underestimated Edwin Carter's ability.

He still regarded Edwin Carter as the child he had taught since childhood. He did not see Edwin Carter's progress in these years.

No clue can be found from the old man. However, the best breakthrough was Jonathan Ronan and Mr. Paul. Edwin Carter will never give up any chance to find out the truth.

...

Jane took a special car arranged by Edwin Carter in order to prevent her from encountering the kind of taxi driver who informed her last time about the tracker.

There wasn’t only a special car but also two bodyguards behind her. Today, she really felt like a rich lady.

Jane has analyzed that at this time Jonathan Ronan must be in his most despairing situation. He urgently needed a partner to get him out of this embarrassing situation, so she can be his best choice.

Jonathan Ronan hasn't been out since she left. He was very untidy. The whole person looked old and his hair has turned grey.

When he opened the door and saw Jane standing at the door, he was so excited that he burst into tears. He cried and wiped his tears, "Jane, finally you are back, dad is relieved."

Jane has to admit that Jonathan Ronan's acting skills were very good. If he changed his career and became an actor, with his acting skills, no one can rob the best actor award from him.

Jane was silent, she waited for him to cry, and she wanted to see how long he can cry.

He shed tears for a long time, but Jane didn't even say a word.

He looked into her cold eyes and couldn't cry anymore.

He wiped his tears and said, "Jane, why you left your home? Why did you leave your father alone here? You don’t want your father anymore?"

"Jonathan Ronan, enough, stop acting!" she thought about all these years when she took this cunning man as her father. She called her mother’s murder her dad.

With this thought, Jane felt that her heart shed blood.

"Jane..."

"Don't pretend. I have regained my lost memories," Jane said coldly and stared at him. "You want to use me to threaten Edwin, unfortunately, your plan flopped."

"Impossible." Jonathan Ronan shook his head and said in shock, "no one who has been injected with that kind of medicine can recover his memory after three years. How could you?"

CHAPTER 345 – CONDITIONS FOR THE DISCLOSURE OF A SECRET (PART 1)

Jonathan Ronan didn't want to believe the fact that Jane has recovered her memory, but he has to believe it. If Jane had not recovered her former memory and kept a trace of doubt in her heart, she would not have been so indifferent to him.

At this time, Jonathan Ronan regretted that he didn't use this chess piece well and now he cannot use it anymore.

He spent three years pretending a good father, took good care of her food, life and everything, for what?

For the purpose to let her firmly remember his good, to let her believe that he is her only family member, to let her do what he wanted her to do.

In the past three years, what she has shown was also the image of a good obedient daughter. She has done what he said and almost never refuted his opinion.

Experiments with that drug also showed that people who did not recover their memories within three years were unlikely to remember it again.

 

So he boldly took Jane back to Jiangbei and gave her the chance to meet Edwin Carter. He thought everything was under his control.

He didn't expect that in such a short period of one to two months, Jane will not only found out that she had been taking drugs but also recover her lost memory.

The medicine of the army isn’t as powerful as it has been considered?

Or he underestimated Jane and Edwin’s feelings?

No matter whatever the reason was, his plan has failed.

He spent more than three years of cultivating chess pieces with countless efforts. He thought she was firmly in his hands, but in the end, he found that he never caught her….

Jonathan Ronan felt as if his life been fucked up.

He can't use Jane to blackmail Edwin Carter anymore, and Carter's family was much stronger. It seemed that Jonathan Ronan has seen the end of his life.

He can't get back to his chair. He looked a bit dazed.

 

There were many thoughts, in these years he did a lot of hard work, he tried his best to restore the fame and prosperity of the Ronan family.

Is it really going to end like this?

He wasn’t reconciled!

He tried so hard and tried everything he could to achieve his goal.

He thought he can take benefit from Edwin Carter by the chess piece in his hand but the chess pieces he was holding tightly have changed.

Yes, his chess pieces have changed.

If this chess piece hasn’t changed at this moment, he would not have come to this point.

With this thought, Jonathan Ronan felt that whatever he has to face today was caused by Jane.

He raised her for so many years, but she never did anything useful for him.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt.

He wished he could swallow Jane alive. He felt only in this way he can get rid of the hatred in his heart.

He glared at Jane again with fierce eyes and stood up. He rushed to Jane, wanted to seize Jane and tear her alive.

But when he pounced, Jane’s action was faster than that of him, which made him grasp the empty space.

Without catching Jane, Jonathan Ronan's anger rose rapidly.

He wished he could beat her to death.

CHAPTER 346 – CONDITIONS FOR THE DISCLOSURE OF A SECRET (PART 2)

Because he didn't go out for a long time, and because of all kinds of worries in recent times, his physical ability has lessened and he didn't even have the strength to deal with Jane. After a while, he fell back to his chair feebly, gasping for breath.

In this period of time, Jane followed Edwin Carter to exercise every day and practiced Taekwondo with Janell.

Jane’s physical fitness improved a lot and her physical strength was enough to handle him. She had been fighting with Jonathan Ronan for such a long time, but her face was not red and she could breathe well.

Jane saw Jonathan Ronan sitting back in his chair, unable to struggle.

She took a deep breath, cleared her throat and said, "Jonathan Ronan, you just want to live and restore the fame and status of the Ronan family. Now that you are suffering from enemies from both sides, what choice do you have except to cooperate with me?"

 

With Jane's words, the crazy Jonathan Ronan regained a little sense of reasoning. He asked, "Do you want to cooperate with me?"

She nodded and said, "You know your situation very well. Someone is trying to get rid of you. It's only the secret that keeps you safe for the time being. You also know very well that if Edwin wants to find out he will soon find out the secret soon. At that time you will be dead."

"How you can help me?" Jonathan asked.

"You tell us the secret you know. We guarantee your safety. You can go wherever you want to go." Jane gave him an offer.

"How can I trust you?" Jonathan Ronan had some doubts.

"You don't trust me. Do you trust the old master Carter?"

Jonathan Ronan has watched Jane growing up in front of his eyes. He knew a lot about Jane's temper and character. If she has said she will help him, it means she will help him and won’t cheat him.

 

However, the Old master Carter has been looking for the way he used to disclose the secret. When they find out it will be his time to die.

After thinking about it, Jonathan Ronan decided to cooperate with Jane.

The most important thing for him was to survive first, only after having a life he can accomplish what he really wanted to accomplish.

Jonathan Ronan asked, "What do you want to know?"

Jane said, "I want to know why the old master of the Carter Family has to kill me? I didn't know him before. Why does he hate me so much?"

"I can tell you, but..." Jonathan Ronan looked behind her, and after a long silence, he continued, "I want 50 million."

"Fifty million?" Jane smiled and said, "All the money I've earned these years is in your account. You know better than me how much money I have earned."

"What can I do with your little money?" Jonathan Ronan sneered and said, "You can ask Edwin Carter for the 50 million that I want. If you open your mouth, let alone 50 million, he won’t hesitate once giving one billion."

Jonathan Ronan was a cunning man. He was very clear that if he don't tell the truth, Edwin Carter will kill him and if he reveals the secret, the old man will kill him.

Edwin Carter just wanted to know the secret from his mouth. When he tells it, he will be of no use for Edwin Carter and Edwin Carter would not protect him.

When the Carter family's old master comes to know that he had told the truth, he would surely want to kill him to vent his anger. At that time, if he was still in Jiangbei, he would surely die.

Jane took a look at Jonathan Ronan and said, "If you tell us, Edwin will help you to go to any city you want to go to. If you keep your mouth shut about all this then you can only wait for death in Jiangbei. Besides, you also know you can't get out of Jiangbei now."

Jane thought it would be more efficient to cooperate with Jonathan Ronan. She didn't want Edwin Carter to waste any more human, material and financial resources.

Unexpectedly, Jonathan Ronan demanded 50 million to open his mouth.

Fifty million, what a huge sum!

Although this money was nothing to Edwin Carter, for Jane, it was a great amount of money and if they have to give it to Jonathan Ronan, her heartache was inevitable.

CHAPTER 347 – THE REAL MURDERER (PART 1)

Fifty million! Fifty million! Fifty million!

Jonathan Ronan asked for 50 million! Why won't he just go and rob some bank?

Jane wanted to turn around and go, but she wanted to know the reason why all this happened to her.

Jonathan Ronan naturally understood her mind, so he said, "Jane, if this secret is so easy to find out, Edwin Carter will not let you come to me for negotiation."

Jane looked at him without saying a word. She wanted to see how much he could do.

Jonathan Ronan smiled gloomily, then said, "50 million, not less than a cent. Whether to give me or not you'd better consult with Edwin Carter."

In fact, Jonathan Ronan also believed that there is no airtight wall in the world. If Edwin Carter spent more time, based on his ability, he can find it out sooner or later. But Edwin Carter hasn't found out yet and as long as Edwin hasn't found out, Jonathan Ronan has the bargaining chip in his hand.

Fifty million was indeed a great price, but for Edwin Carter, it was like a drop in the bucket. Edwin Carter can afford it and for Jane, he can give it.

Jonathan Ronan had asked this sum of money based on Jane’s position in Edwin Carter’s heart.

When Jane was hesitating, the cell phone in her bag rang. She took it out to have a look. It was from Edwin Carter.

She has a bug on her body. Edwin Carter can hear her situation. The conversation between her and Jonathan Ronan was literally heard by Edwin Carter.

When she answered, she heard Edwin Carter's low and deep voice, "Jane, if he agrees to say, money is not a problem."

Jane, "Edwin, are you crazy? 50 million is not a problem, then how much is a problem?"

"Tell him that we agree to give him money."

"50 million are not really a thing for Edwin Carter. It seems that he really cares about you." Jonathan Ronan sighed and said in a strange way, "You met such a man who is willing to spend money on you. Why do you want to save his money? Do you want him to save it so that later he can spend it on other women?"

"Jonathan Ronan, shut up!" Jane shouted.

Actually she was also eager to know the secret, if it was her own money, she would have given it to Jonathan Ronan without blinking her eyes.

But it was Edwin Carter’s money. He worked hard all day. Sometimes in the middle of the night, he has to attend video conferences, which took several hours. It seemed to others that he can easily earn money. She stayed with him and had seen it with her own eyes that how much work he has to do every day to earn money.

 

"For the sake of you being my younger generation, I can give you another hour to think about it. After an hour, even if you give me 100 million, I won't tell you the secret."

Jonathan Ronan heard Jane’s tone while talking to Edwin Carter, he has guessed that Edwin Carter agreed to give the money, so he was more confident.

He didn't know what else Edwin Carter said on the other end of the phone, however, when Jane listened to a word, her lips were even tighter, and her knuckles were gradually white.

This kind of feeling of being held in the palm of one's hand was annoying, if he asked them to go east, they have to go east, if he asked them to go west, they have to go west. It was really bad, but Jane didn't think of a better way, so she could only bear the heartache and follow the advice of Edwin Carter.

She agreed to Jonathan Ronan's request.

She hung up, gritted her teeth, and said, "Jonathan Ronan, after five minutes, the money will be transferred to your account, and you can check it yourself."

"I’ve told you that my son-in-law loves you so much. It was only 50 million. How could he refuse to give it."

Jonathan Ronan was smiling triumphantly. Jane wished she could tear his face and mouth, but she had to bear to know the secret from his mouth.

Five minutes passed in a blink of an eye. Jonathan Ronan's mobile phone received a message that a huge amount of money has been transferred to his account. He looked at the amount and the zero in the string behind the five several times.

When he finally confirmed it was 50 million, he smiled even more proudly and said, "Jane, I don’t know why. You aren’t my biological daughter but you were raised by me. How can you prefer to help outsiders rather than this father who adopted you?"

Jane clenched her fist and said, "Why are you talking nonsense? I just want to know why old master Carter wants to kill me."

Jonathan Ronan looked at Jane's angry face and said without hesitation, "You want to know why the old man of Carter Family hates you and wants you to die, now I will tell you."

CHAPTER 348 – THE REAL MURDERER (PART 2)

Jane swallowed a mouthful of saliva and clenched her fist subconsciously.

Soon she will know the truth she has been looking forward to.

She had waited for a long time before she heard Jonathan Ronan slowly saying, "The old master didn't want to let you enter the door of the Carter family and even wants to drive you out, because he is the real murderer of your father George Michael."

The answer was really unexpected.

Jane never thought of it. She always thought that the car accident judged as an "accident" was done by Jonathan Ronan and Greyson’s family.

How could it be related to the old master of the Carter Family?

In the year of her father's accident, Shengtian had been glowing in the business world. The Carter Family had already settled in the United States.

Why the old master killed her father?

Moreover, 20 years has been passed, her father has been dead for more than 20 years.

Why the old man still wants to be cruel to her?

"Why? Why did he do that?" When Jane asked this question in shaking voice.

She was scared!

Old master was Edwin Carter's own grandfather, and Edwin Carter's own grandfather killed her own father, what kind of injustice is it?

"In fifty million I can answer you only one question." Jonathan Ronan smiled, and said again, "If you want to know you have to fulfill another condition."

"Don't think about it!" Jane was angry.

She was angry and thought this person is worse than a scum!

50 million aren’t enough for him? How can he make another condition?

"This condition is actually much simpler for Edwin Carter than giving me 50 million. Will you listen to my terms before making a decision?"

As soon as Jonathan Ronan's voice fell, the door of the house was smashed open, and the tall figure of Edwin Carter appeared at the door, he said, "Jonathan Ronan, just say it, I will agree to your each and every condition."

"Edwin, why are you here?" Jane looked at Edwin Carter. He looked the same, but she thought he was somehow different.

What's the difference? Jane can't say clearly for a while. She shook her head and wanted to go to Edwin Carter, but she couldn't move. It was Edwin Carter who came to her and held her in his arms.

CHAPTER 349 – THE REAL REASON

"Jane, don't worry, I'm with you." Edwin Carter held the trembling Jane in his arms and whispered to her in a voice that only she could hear.

Jane was really scared. Fortunately, Edwin Carter came. He squeezed her into his warm arms and gave her strength and comfort.

"Son-in-law, here you are." Jonathan Ronan smiled and called Edwin Carter affectionately as if the two people standing in front of him were his daughter and son-in-law.

Edwin Carter kneaded Jane in his arms and looked up at Jonathan Ronan. His eyes were as sharp as an arrow. He said, "Jonathan Ronan, what else do you have? Just say it."

"Give me a new identity, send me away from Jiangbei, as far as possible, so that the old master of your family never finds me." With money, Jonathan Ronan can spend a good life. He thought if he managed to live well, one day he will regain the lost glory and fame of the Ronan family.

 

"Okay." Edwin Carter agreed without hesitation and without any consideration.

"Edwin…" Jane wanted to say something but when she opened her mouth, Edwin Carter put his finger on her mouth.

He smiled at her tenderly and said, "Just listen to me. Don't interrupt. I'll take care of everything."

Jane looked up at him, "..."

"Trust me."

"What to do?" Jonathan Ronan sighed and made a very sad expression. He said, "When I see you two are so close, I can't bear to tell the real reason."

Edwin Carter ignored Jonathan Ronan, took out his phone and called Luis George. He ordered, "Now get a new identity for Jonathan Ronan. The faster, the better."

"Good, my son-in-law, but you know a new identity isn’t enough. You need to arrange a special plane to send me to a place where your Carter Family's business has no involvement. If your grandfather comes to know where I am, he won’t let me go."

 

Jonathan Ronan understood the influence of the Carter family and how vicious the means of the old master of the Carter Family were.

For example, Jane, who had nothing to do with that year's event was poisoned by the old man and he was a person who knew all the things of that time, he can imagine what that old man can do to him.

Edwin Carter squinted slightly and looked at Jonathan Ronan coldly. He continued to convey his request to Luis George to deal with it.

Luis George has been with Edwin Carter for many years, and his ability to handle affairs was very quick. Before long, Edwin Carter received the message from Luis George. Everything has been done. Jonathan Ronan can start with his new identity at any time.

Edwin Carter hung up the phone, rubbed Jane's head, and gave her a reassuring look. He looked at Jonathan Ronan, and said, "Jonathan Ronan, everything you want has been arranged."

Jonathan Ronan was a man who has experienced many storms. He has helped some people to do bad things behind their backs for decades.

How can he easily trust others?

He was not really safe here, how can he talk about those secrets here?

He added, "Take me to the airport in person. When I board safely, I'll tell you what you want to know a few minutes before the plane takes off."

"The car is ready. We'll take you to the airport." Edwin Carter had expected that Jonathan Ronan would not say it easily, and he also knew what Jonathan Ronan would say next, so he has already arranged the car.

 

Jonathan Ronan thought that he can eat Edwin Carter but this time Edwin Carter has decided to let Jonathan Ronan know what it really means to eat people without spitting bones.

Jane admired Edwin Carter's courage to deal with things, and she had to admit that she was far behind him.

No matter what kind of problem, Edwin Carter always made decisions at the spot and there has never been a loophole. And these abilities of him can't come out in a day. These were his long-cultivated skills.

Edwin Carter was really capable, and he seemed indifferent which made Jane love him more.

Jonathan Ronan asked Edwin Carter to take the same car with him, and Edwin Carter agreed. Jonathan Ronan was afraid, which was also expected by him.

In more than half an hour, they arrived at Jiangbei International Airport together with a group of luxury cars. Edwin Carter led Jonathan to the boarding gate of the special plane from the special channel.

In order to protect his life, Jonathan Ronan did everything carefully. Edwin Carter accompanied him to the departure gate, but he asked Edwin Carter to accompany him till boarding.

Edwin Carter agreed to Jonathan Ronan’s every request. There was no objection from his side, and they were as meek as a younger generation to a respected elder.

After boarding, Jonathan Ronan was a little relieved but still didn't relax his vigilance.

He added, "My good son-in-law, and my good daughter, I still don't trust to tell you the truth, what do you say? What should be done?"

 

Jane was so angry that she really wanted to hit him, but Edwin Carter grabbed her. Edwin Carter said to Jonathan Ronan, "Say whatever you want."

"I know my granddaughter is very adorable, cute and sensible. She can really make anyone loves her," Jonathan Ronan said.

"Don’t dare to think about Janell." Jane can't bear it any longer. She didn't know why Edwin Carter, who has always been superior, agreed to Jonathan Ronan’s unreasonable demands.

"In fact, I just don't feel at ease. I'm afraid that as soon as I tell you the secret, you'll turn your face and disown me." With a long sigh, Jonathan Ronan said, "take an oath on your daughter’s name. If you turned your face against me after knowing the truth, then your daughter Janell Carter will not live to be four years old."

"Jonathan Ronan, we have tolerated your enough fucking shit!" Jane has been enduring for long. Jonathan Ronan put forward a lot of unreasonable conditions, and she tolerated silently.

But this beast even began to curse their Janell.

"If you keep your promise, your daughter will be fine." Jonathan Ronan looked at Edwin Carter and Jane and said, "Are you just waiting for me to tell you the secret? So that you can kill me?"

"I take an oath on my daughter’s name." Edwin Carter looked at Jonathan Ronan, "If I turn my face against you and tried to harm or kill you, my daughter won't live to be four years old."

The three-year-old Janell was Edwin Carter's and Jane's sweetheart.

No matter whether the oath was true or false, Jonathan Ronan believed that Edwin Carter can never risk his child’s life. Edwin Carter dared to do this, which proved that Edwin Carter really didn't want to take revenge.

After thinking about it, Jonathan Ronan was relieved. He said, "The car accident of George Michael was arranged by the Old master Carter. He planned the whole process. I was worried that he would get rid of me after that. So I collected the evidence in advance. I sent the evidence to George Michael. As for why old master Carter killed George Michael, it was because George Michael has killed a very important person."

CHAPTER 350 – THE DEATH OF JONATHAN RONAN

"Who is the most important person?"

The one who asked this question was Jane, who was still unable to hold her breath.

She hoped that it was just a misunderstanding or that Jonathan Ronan was lying to them, but she knew that Jonathan Ronan didn't need to lie at this moment.

Jonathan Ronan shook his head, sighed and said, "as for who is it, my good son-in-law must have a direction. As long as he finds the right direction and asks people to continue to check, he will soon know who it is."

With that, Jonathan closed his eyes and was reluctant to say another word.

Jane still wanted to ask, but Edwin Carter took her back.

On the way back, Jane was silent all the time. She was confused.

 

It has been said that the gratitude and resentment of one’s elders have nothing to do with the younger generation, but does it really have nothing to do?

Is there anything between her and Edwin Carter that has happened in the past and that shouldn’t have happened?

She didn't know the answer!

"Jane…" Edwin Carter called her name, her voice was low and deep, there was a kind of helplessness and heartache that could not be said.

"Yes?"

"Do you remember what I said to you?"

She nodded and said softly, "I Remember."

"Do you really remember?"

"What do you want to say?"

"Believe me that I can handle it."

"Edwin Carter, but I don't want to. I don't want to rely on you for everything. I want to solve my own problems. That person is your grandfather. You are between us. How will you deal with it?"

One was his wife and the other was his close grandfather.

Now there was deep hatred between the two.

She will try her best to bring the old master of the Carter Family to justice, but will that hurt Edwin Carter? Obviously, it will, that man is his grandfather.

She was shocked and doubted when she heard the truth from Jonathan Ronan's mouth. She wasn’t hurt, but what about Edwin Carter?

 

He looked calm on the surface as if nothing has happened, but she knew that his heart won’t be at ease as it seemed on the surface.

He must be worried, or afraid, that she has determined that old master Carter was the murderer of her own father.

Edwin Carter said, "That’s my business. Don't worry."

"That's your business?" she asked.

Edwin Carter, "..."

"My business is your business. Your business is also your business," she added, "It means, you can only help me, but you can’t let me take care of you, right?"

"Jane…"

"Edwin Carter, do you think am I really useless?"

"No. But I am your husband and you are my wife. Shouldn't I do anything for you?" Edwin Carter's voice was a little emotional. It was hard to see his mood fluctuations like now.

"..." Jane was speechless because Edwin Carter's reason didn’t leave any words for her.

Just because he was her husband, she also wanted to help but she didn’t want to let him carry every burden. She didn’t want to let him feel tired or bitter, because she also loved him.

She was angry, not with him, but with the fact that she can't do anything for him. She can't share his worries and solve his difficulties. She can only make trouble for him.

"Jane…" Edwin Carter held her in his arms, pressed his chin on her head and rubbed lightly, "do you know that as long as you are with me, it is the greatest help and comfort for me."

 

She may not understand how he had lived the days without her.

For more than three years, he was like a man in purgatory.

Every single day was hard to spend.

Now she has come back, it was like a gift from god to him.

Every day when he woke up and saw her lying beside him, no one can give him that happiness except her.

"But, I... Jane paused for a while and spoke again, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid that one day when I wake up, you will not be around me, I can't find you anymore, and I will forget who I am."

"Believe me!" His words were short, but as always they possessed strong power.

Edwin Carter had his own worries, and Jane had her own worries…

They both wanted to share each other’s worries, but they didn't know how to make each other feel their love for each other.

...

The plane flew for hours and was positioned above the Atlantic Ocean.

Jonathan, who was resting, suddenly felt a violent shaking of the plane. He opened his eyes and saw thick smoke coming from the other side of the cab.

"What happened?" He shouted.

"Mr. Jonathan, the old master asked me to give you the last ride. I hope you'll go well." A cold male voice came from the opposite side of the smoke.

Then Jonathan Ronan heard the sound of the cabin opening, and then someone said, "No. 1 be ready, jump. No. 2 be ready, jump. No. 3 be ready, jump. No. 4 be ready, jump. "

 

There were four crew members. They jumped and the plane swung even more.

Jonathan Ronan wanted to rush to see what's going on, but because of the smoke barrier and the shaking of the fuselage, he couldn't move at all.

He held the seat tightly and didn't let himself roll with the swing of the fuselage.

"Help! Help!"

Jonathan Ronan cried for help in terror, which was as miserable as if he was being killed by a fierce ghost at the moment.

But there was no other sound except the wind and the roar of the machines, and he could not hear the voice of the people he was looking forward to.

"I was wrong! Please let me go! Edwin Carter, please let me go. I'll tell you what you want to know. I don't want any money from you. Let me go!"

Jonathan was shouting hysterically, his voice was hoarse, but no one replied to him.

And his last scream was extinguished by the sound of the plane explosion. His body was also blown into pieces together with the plane, turning into flesh and scum in the air.

At the last moment of his life, he regretted what he had done before. He regretted that he threatened Edwin Carter. He regretted that he couldn’t do anything to make the Ronan family prosperous.

But no one heard his remorse, no one gave him a chance to change his mind and continue to live.

...

A passenger plane from Jiangbei to the capital of a country in Africa crashed in the Atlantic Ocean. There were total of five people as passengers and as crew members on board. All the crew members were rescued. Only the passenger's whereabouts was unknown. He may have died in the Atlantic Ocean.

After the explosion of the plane, the debris fell into the sea. Jonathan Ronan, who hadn't had time to parachute, has blown up, and his body was blown to pieces.

In the evening, the bombing news occupied the front page of the major news.

CHAPTER 351 – INTERCEPTING INFORMATION

When Jane saw the news, Jane was shocked, and her heart was filled with intense unease. She immediately ran to the study to find Edwin Carter, and Edwin Carter was busy with his work. His face was calm as if this was expected.

Edwin Carter saw Jane’s worried appearance and left his work, looked at her and said, "Don’t worry, I didn't do this."

"Did your grandfather do it?" She was sure that Edwin Carter would not fight against Jonathan Ronan because he took an oath.

"Yes." Edwin Carter nodded.

He didn't turn his back to Jonathan Ronan, but he also didn't protect Jonathan Ronan.

He knew that the crew was arranged by the old man, but he didn't tear it down. Jonathan Ronan has done so many evil things, so naturally, someone would clean it up. He didn't need to do it.

"Jonathan is really dead? Or is this just a cover-up? Maybe, he was rescued by the crew, but your grandfather deliberately hid this information."

Jane has experienced too much. Now she has learned to not look only at the surface of things and to think more than before.

Edwin Carter shook his head and said with a smile, "As far as I know the old man, the one who betrayed him couldn’t die so easily, this easy death should be a gift from him. He hated Jonathan Ronan so much and wanted to get rid of him. How could he give him another chance to live?"

Jane didn't speak but took a deep breath. This much cruelty wasn’t a good thing in her eyes.

The old master regarded her as a thorn in the flesh and wished to remove her as soon as possible. Maybe the reason he wanted to get rid of her was that he thought she has that secret in her hand.

 

That day, the old master and his assistant asked her to hand over the relics left by her parents. However, her mother hadn't given her anything important before she died.

When Jane was thinking about it, the light from the corner of her eyes inadvertently glanced at the old ring that Edwin Carter was wearing on his middle finger.

That ring was left by her mother, and she told her at that time that she must keep it well and give it to someone whom she can entrust her life in the future.

So is it possible that this ring was left by her father to the mother, and then it passed from her mother to her, so it means it has something?

Even if it was given by father to mother, what's the secret in it?

Jane was confused, she thought what kind of a secret such a small ring can hide?

Edwin Carter noticed that Jane was distracted. He got up and held her in his arms, rubbed her head, and said, "it's not enough for Jonathan Ronan to die like this a hundred times. Don't feel sorry for him."

"I am not feeling sorry for him." Jane was not unaware of what Jonathan Ronan has done. How can she feel sorry for him?

She was worried about the ruthlessness of the old master and whether she would become the next Jonathan Ronan.

Three years ago, she escaped a disaster and survived. If the old master Carter ever gave her a tough hand again, would she still save herself or she will be slaughtered by him?

Jane took a breath quietly, bit her lips and talk to herself in her heart.

Now she must have to be strong, not only to protect herself but also to protect Edwin Carter and Janell well. She cannot let anyone separate them.

 

Edwin Carter added, "It’s not early. You go to bed and sleep with Janell. I'll come to you when I finish my work."

Jane left the study, and Edwin Carter's gentle eyes suddenly became fierce, like a bloodthirsty Satan.

The reason why he fulfilled Jonathan Ronan's requirements was that he knew that the old man sent someone to observe Jonathan Ronan secretly.

Every move of Jonathan Ronan was under the control of the old man. Jonathan Ronan told all the secrets that he knew. How can the old man keep him alive!

Jonathan Ronan died, but Edwin Carter still has a lot to do.

Who was the person that George Michael has killed?

Who can be such an important person in old man’s life?

Edwin Carter has no idea about these, so he can only follow the clues he already had and continued to search. No matter what the reason was, he will never let Jane’s suffering in vain. He will help her to get back a fair deal.

...

Victor James sneaked into the farm with his vigorous skills, which was not noticed by the people around him.

He had walked through the yard for a long time before he came to the house where the old master was living.

Assistant Joseph has just made two cups of tea. It seemed that he was preparing it for Victor James as well.

"Here you are." After these days of house arrest, the voice of the old man sounded even weaker and he looked much older.

Victor James nodded, sat down opposite the old man, took a sip of teacup and said, "What do you want me to do?"

 

The old man suddenly coughed and stayed silent for a long time, then he said slowly, "Jonathan Ronan is dead. How are the things you are handling?"

"I'm almost done with it, but I'm not sure that I have handled everything. That man was very cunning maybe he has prepared various ways to expose it. I've intercepted some, but I can't guarantee that there are no other ways." When Victor James mentioned it, he was very worried, and his voice was a little hoarse.

He didn't do anything else these days. He used all his time to find out the possible exposure path that Jonathan Ronan can use to reveal the secret.

He found 15 different kinds of exposure methods, but he couldn't guarantee that he has found all methods.

"Since you can't find it, you should try to minimize the damage. Let your people monitor all aspects of the network. If there comes any news, order them to clear it immediately. This matter must not be spread out, otherwise Angela..."

While saying this old man’s voice also shivered. Tears flashed in his eyes and after a long time, he said, "Victor James, do you like Angela?"

Victor James's eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't say a word, which showed his consent.

The old man added, "If you like her you should do your best to protect her and never let her suffer a little more harm. She has already lost so much. Now we should do what we can do for her to let her live carefreely forever."

Victor James still didn't speak, but the two hands on his side were tightly clenched into fists, and the blue tendons on the back of his hands appeared.

There was a feeling of powerlessness like when a person has to watch his father getting sick, but he can't cure him.

It was a feeling as if you are surrounded by cliffs. If you take one wrong step, you will fall into the abyss. Where there was no way to go back.

CHAPTER 352 – DON’T DARE TO HURT THAT CHILD

After a long silence, Victor James said, "No matter what I have to do, I will try my best to protect her and never let her get hurt because of that."

The old man referred that incident, became angry and punched on the table, "If at that time George Michael hasn’t played tricks on the back, things wouldn't have come to this point. At that time, his children were still young, and I let them go. I didn't expect that his daughter will dare to enter our Carter Family…She’s overestimated her capabilities."

Later, the old man came to know from Jonathan Ronan that before the car accident, Jonathan Ronan recorded a video of their conversation and sent it to George Michael.

In other words, in order to protect himself, Jonathan left a piece of evidence.

In the past, he didn't want to get rid of Jonathan Ronan, so he didn't know that there was such kind of evidence. Until three years ago, Jonathan Ronan came to him and threatened him with the evidence….

 

After using many ways the old man ruled out Robert Michael and they were sure that the secret must be firmly locked in Jane’s hand. In order to not let the event of that year come to light, he has to get rid of Jane or get the evidence left by her mother.

Twenty years ago, Jane was only a few years old children. At that time, she was Jonathan Ronan's daughter, and she didn't know who her own father was. There was no reason for her to bear what George Michael had committed.

So when the old master mentioned Jane, Victor James didn't interrupt nor did he support him.

Actually, he saw Jane several times, but he didn't know her very well. However, she left a good impression on him. Moreover, his nephew had such a high vision that he was sure that he would not choose a bad woman.

 

"Commander James, old master is house arrest recently. So it's up to you to deal with the matter of young lady." Assistant Joseph who was standing side said suddenly.

Victor James turned to see assistant Joseph, stared at him for a long time, and then asked, "Are you from state A?"

Assistant Joseph nodded and said, "Yes, I came to Jiangbei with them, but at last they disappeared, leaving alone young lady and me."

The old master coughed softly and said, "Joseph, go down first. Don't talk foolish things in front of Commander James."

Victor James said, "It doesn't matter. After all, we all want Angela’s good. But I have one thing to make clear to assistant Joseph. Edwin Carter is my sister's son. He is my family. So his child is also my family. If anyone dares to hurt that kid in the future, I will be the first one who won't let him go."

When Janell was attacked, Victor James couldn't understand how can the old master attack his great-granddaughter. Now after knowing the identity of assistant Joseph, Victor James got his answer.

Victor James’s voice was strong and powerful.

Even though Joseph has been with the old man for many years and worked on countless things, he was still afraid.

He bowed his head, clenched his fist, and didn’t dare to speak.

"Deaf? Dumb?" Victor James raised his voice and asked in his military-style.

Assistant Joseph immediately nodded, "I… I got it."

"Old master, it's time for you to take care of your men. If it wasn't for your indulgence, he wouldn't have the guts to do something so outrageous. He dares to harm your great-granddaughter. What else doesn't he dare to do?"

 

Leaving the words behind, Victor James got up and left. His every step was steady and powerful.

"Old master, I..." As soon as Victor James left, assistant Joseph spoke and hesitated.

"Remember to not do it again. Whether it's my grandson or Victor James, you can't afford to offend anyone of them." The old man waved his hand feebly and said, "Don’t think about it. It's late. I want to have a rest."

Assistant Joseph quickly supported the old man and whispered, "I didn't want to hurt the little miss but in the current situation, it won’t work to use little miss to force Jane Ronan to hand over the evidence we want."

...

When Edwin Carter returned to the bedroom, Jane was telling a story to Janell.

Her voice was unique and gentle. Her every word was full of her deep affection for Janell.

Janell was lying in Jane's arms, blinking her beautiful big eyes, and occasionally her brain worked and she asked some strange questions that her mom couldn't answer.

For example, Janell asked, "Mom, why does a little rabbit have a mom?"

Jane replied patiently, "Because children are born by their mother. Janell was born by her mother, and the little rabbit was born by his mother. "

"Mother also born from a mother?" Janell blinked her big eye and asked.

Jane rubbed her head and said softly, "Yes, Janell is really smart. Mother is also born by her mother."

Janell nodded hard to show that she has understood, and said, "Tortoise is born by mother tortoise. Insects are born by mother worms. Janell and Mia Mia are born by you."

Jane tried to clear it, "Mia Mia was born by her mother."

Janell touched her small head. She was somewhat confused. Mia mia was her sister, how can their mothers be different?

Jane looked into Janell’s questioning eyes and thought it was cute and funny. She kissed her and said, "Baby, sleep now. Mom will tell you another story tomorrow."

"Mom, no." Janell was very interested in listening to stories, so she didn't want to sleep and cuddled in her mother's arms.

Jane smiled softly and said, "Well, if my baby isn’t sleepy, then let’s play for a while."

Janell got up, hugged Jane and kissed her, then she asked in a soft voice, "How mom gave birth to Janell? How does rabbit’s mom give birth to little rabbit?"

Jane really didn't know how to answer her question. She rubbed her eyebrows and hummed a sleep song...

Edwin Carter stood at the door and looked at this mother and daughter’s interaction silently. He didn’t want to disturb them.

He remembered when Janell was almost three years old and when she played with other children, she always asked for her mother.

She used to cry a lot, but he couldn't help her. She always complained that other children have mothers why she didn't have.

At that time, Edwin Carter's heart seemed to be hit hard with a fist, and he felt paralyzed with pain. He didn't know how to answer her except for holding her in his arms. Now Jane has been back for several months, but many times, he still felt like he was living a dream, everything seemed so unreal.

"Edwin, what are you doing there?" Jane coaxed Janell to sleep and after that she noticed the tall figure standing at the door. She did not know for how long he has been standing like this.

"Why my big and little Jane are so beautiful?" Edwin Carter strode over and smiled, "My big and little Jane are so beautiful that I can't move my eyes."

"When did you become so articulate?" Edwin Carter, who used to cherish words like gold, has been stolen by someone in the years when she left?

CHAPTER 353 – WENT TO BROTHER FOR HELP (PART 1)

 

When did you become so articulate?

Suddenly, Jane said so, and Edwin Carter’s heart was filled joy, her words once again proved that she had recalled their past.

Although she didn't tell him that she has recalled the forgotten memory, still he could feel it, especially after hearing her conversation with Jonathan Ronan.

If Jane just talked to Jonathan Ronan according to the plan they have agreed in advance and if she hasn't thought of the past, she wouldn’t be as emotional and angry as she was.

The reason why she felt all that must be that she has brought back those personal feelings. If she had only listened to the past that he told her, how can she felt those feelings?

Edwin Carter knew that Jane had recovered her memory. His heart was excited, but on the surface, he seemed calm and still pretended that he didn’t know.

If she didn't want to tell him, then he would wait until the day she was willing to say it, and he believed that she would not let him wait much longer.

Edwin Carter sat next to Jane, bowed his head and kissed her forehead, "Jane, don’t try to escape again in this life. You are only my Jane."

"I'm not yours." Jane's face turned red again unconsciously, she stretched her hand and pinched his waist.

"Not mine then whose do you think you are?" Edwin Carter gave a evil smile, suddenly caught her lips, and gently kissed, "tell me, any other man has ever kissed you like this?"

He knew no one did. He just wanted to tease Jane, unexpectedly, he heard Jane saying, "Yes. It was fiercer than your kiss."

"Who is that son of a bitch?" Edwin Carter's face turned black in an instant. The thought that his wife had been kissed by others, generated an impulse to kill that man.

Jane chuckled, "it's a coincidence that his surname was also Carter. He looks good. He's even better in stature, but he wasn’t as talkative as you."

This woman was clearly praising him. The thought that he was so excellent in her eyes, made him very happy. She leaned closer to Jane's ear and whispered, "little villain, you have become a little mischevious."

His warm breath was sprayed on Jane's ears. She scratched her neck and whispered, "Only you can become bad? I can't? Huh?"

"Of course, if you want to become bad, you can and if you don't know how to do bad things, I can be your teacher and teach you how to get bad." Edwin Carter spoke in a manner that was both serious and unserious.

Jane couldn't help laughing when she heard Edwin Carter's words.

He was still the Edwin Carter. She was familiar with Edwin Carter who spoke less in front of strangers, but he was gentle in front of his wife and daughter.

He has learned to say words of love that he didn't say before.

"Janell is over three years old. It's time for her to sleep alone. She can't always be our third wheel." Edwin Carter suddenly changed the subject.

Jane looked at him fiercely. She seemed dissatisfied, "I will sleep where Janell sleeps."

She just met her daughter. She wanted to rub her daughter back into her stomach and take it with her every day. She wasn’t willing to let Janell sleep alone.

It was impossible for her to stay apart from her daughter, and Mr. Carter has to bear the hardships silently.

Poor Mr. Carter, he can only have her fragrance at night, but he will be forced to be a monk.

CHAPTER 354 – WENT TO BROTHER FOR HELP (PART 2)

Jane grabbed Edwin Carter's big palm and raised his hand, "Edwin Carter, do you think this ring doesn't look good on your hand?"

Jane had to find a way to get the ring back to study it carefully and to see if the things that the old master wanted would be hidden in the ring.

"Not at all." How could he feel bad about the thing she gave to him?

"You’ve been wearing it all the time, and the shine has gone. If you take it off tomorrow, I will let people polish it. It will look better after that."

"You have a point. Then, Mrs. Carter, I give you such an important thing to handle." Edwin Carter did not doubt it. He took off the ring and gave it to Jane.

Jonathan Ronan's matter has come to the halt for the time being. She has been in a hurry recently and he thought if she will be busy with something, she won't overthink about the problems.

...

Summer is really an unpredictable season.

It was still sunny before she has changed clothes. Now when she was ready to go out, it was thunder and raining outside.

However, no matter how heavy the wind and rain were, they cannot stop her from trying to find out the truth about her father's car accident.

Jane was going to meet Robert Michael, her brother.

Robert Michael should know more about her father's affairs than she did. That’s why she asked him to meet her. So that brother and sister can work together to find clues.

If she found clues to prove that the Carter family's old master was the real murderer of her father, she will bring him to justice by any means.

The meeting place with Robert Michael’s residence in Jiangbei, a high-end community under Shengtian real estate.

The house didn't cost a cent. It was given to Robert Michael by Edwin Carter. Edwin Carter gave it to him, and he accepted it generously.

Jane was coming to meet him and Robert Michael hurried to find a person to help clean up the mess of the house. He must make a good impression on his sister.

After cleaning up, he went to the gate to wait for Jane.

Her car arrived, Robert Michael greeted her and opened the door for her. He said with a smile, "should I call you Miss Ronan or Mrs. Carter now?"

Jane glared at him, "Only two of us are here, so don't pretend."

Robert Michael held Jane in his arms and hugged her, saying, "welcome back, my dear sister."

"Thank you for looking for me." Jane sniffed and said, "thank you, brother!"

"I'm your brother, don’t be too alienated." Robert Michael took Jane inside.

They were brother and sister how can there be so many alienated words between them.

Robert Michael led Jane to his home and said excitedly, "Jane, this is my home in Jiangbei, and naturally your home. Remember, if Edwin Carter makes you feel wronged, just come to your elder brother and let me clean him up. Look at the room over there. It's especially for you."

Jane gave him another fierce look and said, "Where does a brother like you exists, who is looking forward to a quarrel between his sister and his brother-in-law."

Robert Michael was wronged. He just wanted to tell her that she can rely on her elder brother.

"I know you want the best for me. I'm kidding." Jane took Robert Michael's arm and smiled at him. "You are my brother. Obviously, you want me to feel protected."

"I love to hear this." At the same time, Robert Michael helped Jane pour a glass of water and said, "Do you want to visit my house first, or do you want to talk first?"

She can visit this house at any time, but the old man of the Carter Family was in hurry, she also knew that she didn't have much time, so she said, "Let's talk about that thing first."

CHAPTER 355 – IS THIS RING A CLUE (PART 1)

Jane wanted to revenge for her father with the help of Robert Michael. Of course, she didn't hide anything from him. She told Robert Michael everything in detail.

After hearing everything, Robert Michael became serious.

After a long silence, he punched on the coffee table in front of him heavily and said angrily, "What the hell that old master Carter thinks? Does he think that Michael's family doesn’t have a man?"

"Don't get too angry. It has happened, and our anger won't help us. We have to find evidence of his murder so that we can avenge our father." She must also take revenge for the pain she has suffered. She couldn’t forget what she has suffered.

"Jane… you… you have suffered a lot, I’m sorry." Robert Michael squeezed out such a sentence with his teeth clenched.

If the old master really had the ability he should come to him to deal with him. Why he took revenge from a weak woman? It was bullshit. He’d highly respected that old man, but he didn't expect that he was such a pathetic man.

During this period, in order to help Jane recover her memory, Robert Michael searched for information about the kind of drug called CR used by the army of the country against spies.

He knew when those people were injected with the medicine, they became so miserable that they could only live life as if they were dead. Even the one who could survive can’t turn around from the ghost gate.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt, but what's the use of being angry?

They cannot be the rivals of the old master Carter. Jane was right. They were ordinary people who can only use ordinary people's solutions.

They should find evidence of the old master’s crime and make a big deal of trouble for him. Even if Carter’s had a strong ability and position, they couldn't resist the pressure of public opinion.

 

Robert Michael went back to his room and when he came back again he had a ring on his hand, a ring that was exactly the same as that of Jane.

Robert Michael showed the ring to Jane and said, "This ring was given to me by my father a few days before the accident. At that time, I was young. I didn't know what he said. I just remember that he told me to take good care of this ring."

"Brother..." Jane was so nervous that she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, paused, and said, "Can these two rings really help us find out the truth about our father's murder?"

Robert Michael took the two rings together and looked inside and outside again. They were so smooth there was nothing, not even a word was engraved on them.

He said, "Jane, think about it carefully, when your mother gave you the ring, besides letting you give it to someone whom you can entrust life, what else she said?"

Jane tried to think back to the time when her mother buried the ring with her. She could only remember these words.

Perhaps at that time, she was very shy. When her mother said such a thing, she had a little fantasy and she didn’t remember anything else.

Robert Michael added, "I also thought about it a lot. At that time, I was a child. I didn't expect that it would be the last time that my father would talk to me, and I didn't listen attentively at all. He scolded me, and I heard that he told me to keep the ring safe."

George Michael has been dead for more than 20 years. He gave the ring to Robert Michael just before his death. After more than 20 years, Robert Michael couldn’t remember what his father has said.

As for Jane's ring. Her mother gave it to her when she wasn’t a child. She was an adult, the past was not too long. She may be able to remember some clues.

It was a matter of past, both of them were very young and didn't participate.

The only clue Jane can think of was this ring left by her mother. How can a small ring hide a secret?

They looked at each other and look at the ring at the same time. After staring at the ring for a long time, a sudden idea flashed in their mind at the same time….

Jane, "Brother, do you think, it can be..."

Robert Michael, "Jane, do you think it can be… You say it first."

Jane said, "See, these two rings are obviously for lovers. They should be the keepsake of their love. My mother had this ring that was of a man and my father has this ring that was of a woman. Do you think these two rings points somewhere?"

"Yes, it can be." Robert Michael thought for a moment and said, "They grew up together. They have a wonderful relationship. I think they want to tell us to go somewhere they used to date. The clues may be there."

After they came to this conclusion, they were soon overthrown by themselves.

Kyoto has grown so fast that the places of decades ago have been demolished. It was impossible to find places where they used to date.

CHAPTER 356 – IS THIS RING A CLUE (PART 2)

Jane picked up the two rings and looked at them again. In these ordinary rings, they can't see any special thing.

Robert Michael added, "Jonathan Ronan said that he sent the video recording of chatting with the old Carter to our father. Twenty years ago, when Internet technology was not so developed, how did he send video to our father?"

Jane said, "if we can find the transmission way, we can get a direction to search more clues."

Maybe they can find the video recording of that year by finding the transmission mode of that recording. Is the direction of these two rings was just to let them find the video recording?

Thinking about it, Jane had another idea, she said, "Brother, do you think these two rings have any data?"

"Maybe these two rings are special chips. We should find a way to read the data."

Jane nodded and said, "Father gives you this ring, and my mother gives me this ring. Let's keep it separately. Even if one of them is stolen by the old man of the Carter Family, we still have some clues."

Robert Michael said, "Let’s go to the professionals in computer technology and let them help us to have a look. Maybe we can find the truth."

"No," Jane refused said. "There must be old master’s people around us. If we found someone, there are chances that his people rob our evidence."

Robert Michael thought for a moment and said, "Ask Edwin Carter. There are so many competent people under him. There is absolutely no problem for him to check whether these two rings have special chips."

Jane shook her head and said, "brother, I hope we can solve this problem by ourselves. Don't look for Edwin Carter."

Don't look for Edwin Carter?

After hearing Jane's words, Robert Michael was slightly shocked.

Is it because Edwin Carter was also a member of the Carter Family, so Jane was not willing to involve Edwin Carter?

But Edwin Carter's feelings for Jane were very clear to Robert Michael. Edwin Carter cannot do anything to protect his grandfather that can hurt Jane.

However, in the face of interests and family ties, it was not clear which side Edwin Carter will choose to stand on.

In order to avoid any unnecessary trouble, Jane was right to not involve Edwin Carter.

CHAPTER 357 – A SCANDAL

After thinking about it again, Robert Michael nodded and said, "After all, Edwin is a family member of the Carters. If you don't believe him, I can understand it."

"It’s not that I don't believe him." Jane denied it immediately and said emotionally, "That man is Edwin’s grandfather, and I don't want him to come between us. If he helps us to bring old master Carter to justice, then others will scold him."

Without even thinking about it, Jane said that Edwin Carter would help her to bring the old man of Carter Family to justice. She subconsciously believed that Edwin Carter would be on her side.

Jane wanted revenge and she will take revenge.

But it must be avenged by her, not by Edwin Carter.

She didn't want Edwin Carter to be called an un-filial grandson. She didn’t want others to say that just for a woman Edwin Carter went against his own grandfather.

Robert Michael patted Jane's hand and comforted her, "Don’t worry. You can’t involve Edwin Carter, but you have me, I will do this. People say that if husband and wife become united, then with their strength they can even break hard metals. Now we brother and sister have united, and we will also overcome all the hurdles."

"Brother, promise me that you won't tell it to Edwin." These two people were classmates and good friends. Jane wasn’t sure, maybe her brother would tell Edwin Carter about everything.

Robert Michael said, "Don't worry. Your brother still has integrity. I promise you, I won’t say it."

With a mischievous smile, Jane said, "Are you sure you have? It hasn’t been eaten by dogs for a long time?"

"Don't think that if you have Edwin Carter's support, I won't dare to clean you up." Robert Michael pretended to be very vicious, but Jane didn't mind.

They will certainly avenge their father, but they still have to live a life and they will live a happy life.

People can live a sad day or a good day. They have the choice so why not choose to be happy?

...

When the romantic love affair of famous actress Polaris was exposed, it made a sensation in the whole entertainment circle for a while.

The reason for the sensation was that the news had appeared for a long time, and on the Internet, it was still on the top, with billions of clicks.

In the past, such kind of news about Polaris was cleaned up within a few minutes, leaving no clues for netizens.

In the photos that were circulated on the Internet, there was Polaris and a man and they seemed to have an intimate contact. The people involved did not come out to clarify, which showed that they didn’t disagree with the relationship.

Many netizens said that their goddess was in love and that they were also lovelorn at the moment. Everyone talked about this scandal.

Angela Carter naturally saw the news. This scandal was not made by her, but the effect was much better than her own.

The angle of the person who took the picture was really good. In one of the pictures, it looked like she was kissing Mr. Paul.

This kind of effect was what Angela Carter always wanted. She didn't make this scandal especially, and it has been spread on the Internet for such a long time. She was eager to see if Victor James can still sit calmly or not.

If he behaves the same as if nothing happened, then he will have no right to blame her for using her last move. For which she was prepared for a long time.

 

Angela Carter counted on her fingers. In the last fifteen days, there was no news about Victor James. The man didn't answer her phone. She didn't know where he was.

During this period, whenever she went to Jiangbei military region, she was stopped by others, saying that no one can rush into military area.

Bullshit. They didn't stop her when she broke in before. Now, when it was too late to stop her, they started stopping her.

However, no matter how noisy she was, she could not see the shadow of Victor James, not only his shadow she couldn’t even manage to go within a few kilometers of him.

Wait and see. When she becomes their commander's wife she will deal with each one of them.

At this time, Angela Carter was lying on the sofa, holding a mobile phone in her hand and constantly checking the gossip about her.

The clicks were still going up, and there were many more posts to discuss. It was so gratifying that she thought that she was flying above the sky.

Suddenly, she saw a hot post and the speed of likes and forwarding was also growing rapidly.

It was written that Polaris had lived with Mr. Paul as early as half a month ago, and they walked in and out of a high-end community hand in hand.

It wasn’t only the caption that was eye-catching even the picture was so attractive. The woman in a peaked cap was the same as her. Not to mention other netizens even Angela Carter herself thought that it was really her picture.

"Wow!" Angela Carter was so excited that she jumped up like a child on the sofa.

That Mr. Paul was looking for someone to pretend to be her and then released such news to destroy her reputation. But he didn't know that he had helped her a lot.

The scandals she made by herself were disappeared by her brother in a second and Victor James didn’t even saw it. This time, it was so big that she didn't believe that Victor James can ignore it.

How will Victor James look like after seeing this scandal?

Would he be jealous of her?

Angela Carter was very confident that Victor James would be jealous. She really wanted to see him jealous. He must look very handsome and charming.

When she was in her thoughts, Victor James's phone call came in.

Although she wanted to answer his phone and listen to his voice, she had to hold back. She had to let him worry about her, she won't explain to him and let him understand how important she was in his heart.

Angela Carter not only didn't answer Victor James's phone but also disconnected it. She said proudly, "Victor James, keep on calling. If you make two more calls, I will take your call."

After hanging up the phone, Angela Carter waited, she thought that soon she will receive his second call. However, she waited for several minutes, but Victor James didn’t call her back.

Fuck!

This bastard!

She just didn’t pick his call for once, and he became angry and ignored her.

How could he forget that he always inured her phone calls, and she always called him again?

She scolded him in her heart, but she can’t be angry with him!

Well, if he won't call her, she will.

Angela Carter bit her lips and quickly called back. As he picked it up, she roared, "Victor James, you son of a bitch, why you didn’t call me again? Why do you have to let me call you?"

After she had roared, a stammering voice came from her cell phone, "Miss Carter, I'm sorry, I just took the commander's phone and dialed the wrong number accidentally."

"You, if you have guts dare to say it again."

Fuck!

She couldn’t believe that Victor James didn't call her.

Totally impossible!

She can never believe that it was Victor James's assistant who had just made a mistake.

CHAPTER 358 – IT WASN’T VICTOR JAMES WHO KISSED HER

The assistant's voice reached Angela Carter's ear again, "Miss Carter if you ask me to say it a hundred times, it’s the same..."

Angela Carter didn't want to hear his nonsense and interrupted, "tell Victor James to answer the phone."

The assistant paused and stammered, "The commander is not available."

"Then please convey my message to him that I'm going to get married, and I'm going to invite him to my wedding party. Please ask him to attend."

After saying it, Angela Carter quickly hung up the phone and jumped around the room in anger with many disturbing thoughts in her mind….

What does Victor James want to do?

He really doesn't care about her or does he?

Then she will play with him till the end.

Angela Carter found the call records of the previous days, finally found out that strange number and dialed it quickly.

This time, the person she called was Mr. Paul, who has been beaten badly by her last time. Exactly the person who was having an affair with her according to the news.

This time she was looking for Mr. Paul to help her.

Asking help from a person, who was once beaten by you, except for thick-skinned Angela Carter no one can have such a daring attitude.

She called, and the phone was answered quickly. Mr. Paul's pleasant voice came, "Polaris, do you like the gift I gave to you?"

"I like it so much." Angela Carter was a smart person. She knew that the "gift" that Mr. Paul has mentioned was the scandal.

Mr. Paul said, "If you like it, don’t you think you should thank me?"

"I called you to thank you. What do you think, why I am calling you?" Angela Carter replied.

"Just a simple sentence to thank me, I don't accept it." Mr. Paul said.

 

"Mr. Paul, if you’re free, I want to treat you to dinner." Angela Carter offered generously.

"Okay. I'll pick you up."

It wasn't long after the end of the call that Mr. Paul arrived, it seemed as if he had been waiting nearby.

But at this time, Angela Carter has been dizzy with anger. She can only think about how to make Victor James confess his real feelings. She can't think about anything else.

She only knew that at this time, she asked Mr. Paul to have dinner together, to let people take pictures. The heat of the scandal must rise. If she played with Paul a little bit more and was reported exaggeratedly by the media the heat can last at least for two or three days.

Victor James dared to treat her like this, then she will go out to have fun with another man, to see if that bastard can really sit down calmly!

Angela Carter was not only cheeky but also very brave. After hitting Mr. Paul, she can still get on Mr. Paul's car like a person who hadn’t done such a thing and didn’t even take Arthur Simon with her.

Mr. Paul's car was a luxury sports car worth millions. There were not many people who can afford it.

Angela Carter sat in and said, "Your father is just a mayor of Jiangbei City, and you don't have a job. How can you afford to such a luxury car?"

Mr. Paul started the car and sped up slowly. He looked back at Angela Carter and said, "Who said that my father is the mayor of Jiangbei?"

"You said that." Angela Carter still remembered that night when she was drugged, people beside him said it.

 

"You misunderstood me," Mr. Paul explained. "My family name is Paul. People I know call me Master Paul. The mayor of Jiangbei is also called Mr. Paul, but that's not me. They have nothing to do with me."

Angela Carter, "..."

She thought about the situation that day. Those people said that Mr. Paul, the mayor's son, was the third person in Jiangbei City that can’t be provoked. By the way, they also called this man "Mr. Paul" in front of her. But no one pointed to him and said that he was the mayor's son.

However, no matter what his identity was, as long as he was willing to help her stir up the scandal, she was fine with that, and other things had nothing to do with her.

It was Angela Carter's treat, and Mr. Paul didn’t show any courtesy. He took Angela Carter to a very famous and expensive restaurant.

After getting out of the car, Angela Carter took the initiative to hold Mr. Paul's arm, looked at him with a smile, and allowed the paparazzi hiding in the dark take photos.

Mr. Paul also knew it. Instead of refusing, he cooperated with Angela Carter. He put his hand around her waist, leaned his head towards her ear and whispered, "Polaris, you are using me for this scandal. I want you to repay me for it."

Angela Carter blinked her beautiful eyes and smiled, "Mr. Paul, it’s you who are using me for this scandal. When it became that I use you…"

Before Angela Carter could finish speaking, she was hugged by Mr. Paul.

Angela Carter pushed him and exclaimed, "Mr. Paul, what do you want to do?"

 

"So many paparazzi are taking photos, so let’s create some hot poses for them to take photos," Mr. Paul said with a wicked smile.

Yes, she wanted to make a scandal with him. So it was appropriate for them to have some ambiguous behaviors.

When Angela Carter hesitated, Mr. Paul clasped her waist with one hand and the back of her head with the other pushed her to himself, bent slightly and kissed her severely.

Suddenly kissed by this man, strange lips, strange temperature, strange breath… everything was strange.

Angela Carter stared at his magnified face and forgot that her heart was refusing and she should push him away.

She has tried many times to kiss Victor James and every time he pushed her away. She never enjoyed this thing with James, but this man's kissing skill was very good, which made her feel good.

Victor James, you’re hiding from me. You don't want to let me approach you. You don't cherish the things that I gave to you. Sometimes, I think I should listen to you and try to find another man to feel this kind of feeling of love.

If I hook with others and don't want you any more, do not cry at that time.

"It seems that my charm is not enough to attract you."

Mr. Paul's voice came from the top of her head, which made Angela Carter return to her mind. She didn't know when Mr. Paul left her.

Angela Carter subconsciously raised her hand and wiped her lips. Maybe, she wanted to erase the breath that Mr. Paul left on her lips.

"When I was kissing you, you were thinking about another man in your heart, which hurt me so much," Mr. Paul complained.

Angela Carter shrugged, "I can't help it. I like that man."

Mr. Paul hugged her shoulder and said, "The picture of our kiss will soon spread out on the Internet. Then your Victor James will see it."

"My goal is to let him see it." Angela Carter said proudly.

Mr. Paul reached out and rubbed Angela Carter's head, "It’s time to test Victor James. Let’s see if he has you in his heart or not."

CHAPTER 359 – A MAN SITTING AT HER HOME

It’s time to test Victor James's heart.

Angela Carter felt inexplicably flustered after hearing Mr. Paul's words.

Angela Carter thought Victor James hadn't done anything even after seeing the news… does that mean that he really has no love for her?

However, Angela Carter has always been optimistic. If Victor James didn’t have that kind of love for her, but she has and in her eyes, her love was enough for both of them.

She used today's scandal to check Victor James's attitude. After that, she will see how to deal with him.

"Let’s go to eat." Mr. Paul held Angela Carter and walked away.

Angela Carter didn't hide either. At this time she needed to depend on this person to reach her goal. After all, she was a good actor and knew how to act well.

 

Maybe Mr. Paul's appearance was really good, or maybe he was helping her, or maybe he has been chatting for a long time. Angela Carter thought that this man was not as annoying as before, and they can be friends.

She regarded Mr. Paul as a friend, so there was no need to be alienated. When they ate, she ate and drank as she liked. She didn't have the consciousness of being an idol.

The alcohol level in wine is not high, but obviously it is alcohol. If you drink too much, you get drunk.

Mr. Paul said to Polaris to drink less, but he still kept pouring wine for her.

After a few drinks, Angela Carter not only blushed but also became dizzy.

While she was drinking wine, she told Mr. Paul about Victor James. She had lost her mind and vented all her resentments that she had for Victor James.

 

"Mr. Paul, you must think that Victor James is a great man. But in my eyes, he is a cheap man, a wicked man, and a scum!"

"That son of a bitch obviously likes me, but he wants to hide from me. If it wasn't for the sake of my own future 'sex' happiness, I would have given up on that son of a bitch and has abandoned that bastard."

"Why is he so excellent? He is the first one who got this position in Jiangbei military region at such a young age with his own efforts. I know he is a great man."

"He is such an excellent man, many women want to marry him, so I know my eyes are not bad at all."

Angela Carter scolded Victor James and at the same time, she praised Victor James.

Mr. Paul listened to her complaints and praise for Victor James quietly. His eyes flashed a soft light that was not easy to detect. He said softly, "Angela, you are excellent. You like Victor James and it’s his fortune. If he is ungrateful, I will take you away, so that he can never find you."

Angela Carter accidentally smashed the wine goblet and stood up, and her body was shaking, "Mr. Paul, thank you for chatting and drinking with me. We will be friends in the future. When you want to drink, you can make a phone call and I will be there for you at any time."

"Thank you very much, Miss Carter. I'm so honored to be your friend." Mr. Paul held Angela Carter and said, "I think you are drunk, sit down first. I'll ask someone to prepare a cup of sobering tea for you."

"Thank you!" Angela Carter smiled and said, "Mr. Paul, you are really good. If I had not known Victor James first, I might have liked you. If you like me, please hide it in your heart. Don't say it. We can still be friends."

 

"No, I know you before him!" Mr. Paul said in his heart but didn't say anything to her.

He laughingly shook his head.

How can a person be so narcissistic?

Angela Carter was not only narcissistic but also was wild.

But no one knew whether it was good or not.

After drinking a cup of strong tea, Angela Carter's mind has awakened. She took out her mobile phone and swiped all the news websites. All of them had photos of Mr. Paul kissing her. The click rate was still increasing.

This scandal was so hot. She was sure that not only Victor James has seen them, even her family has also seen them.

However, her cell phone was quiet. Victor James's call didn't come, and she didn’t get any phone calls from her family.

In the past, whenever there was a bit of trouble, grandpa always called her in time to ask about her, but this time not even grandpa called her.

She was confused. ..

Is it that all of them have seen enough and they know that she always makes her own scandal, so this time they will not help her deal with it or call her to ask?

"Polaris, what's the matter?" Mr. Paul asked.

"Mr. Paul, it's late. Please drop me home."

She wanted to find a quiet corner to think about it.

If… no if.

No matter what, she won’t give up on Victor James.

"Polaris, no matter what happens, please remember, don't forget your originality and don’t lose your core."

Mr. Paul dropped Angela Carter to her home, said such a sentence and left.

 

Angela Carter stood there for a long time and didn't figure out what he wanted to tell her. He shook her head and turned to the residential area.

These days, she lived in her own house. It was at a very good geographical location. It was located in the south of Jiangbei District. Outside the community, there was the largest urban ecological park in Jiangbei.

When she came to Jiangbei, she usually lived here and occasionally went back to villa to meet Janell. However, now her sister-in-law has come back, Janell has a mother to take care of her.

With these thoughts, she returned home.

She opened the door, took off her shoes, threw her bag and didn’t even turn on the lights. She walked to the bathroom in the moonlight outside the window.

After drinking wine and taking a hot bath, Angela Carter was feeling sober and comfortable and her mind was clear without any messy thoughts.

She came out of the bathroom naked and went to the living room. She touched the tea table, and her hand touched the cigarette and the lighter.

Crack-

The lighter burns, in the light of the fire, Angela Carter saw a man sitting on the sofa. His face was as gloomy as that of a messenger from hell who came to take one’s soul.

"Ah-"

Angela Carter screamed with fear, turned around and ran.

After a few steps, her mind responded….

She stopped, looked back, and through the faint moonlight, she again confirmed that there was a man sitting on the sofa.

Yes, there was a man in military uniform.

—Victor James!

That's him. That's the bastard.

When did he come here? Why didn't he turn on the light?

Sitting there quietly with a gloomy face, does he want to frighten her to death?

Angela Carter confirmed that it was Victor James and her courage increased. She turned on the light in the room. If he wanted to see it, she would let him see clearly.

However, Angela Carter regretted it when she turned on the light.

Because Victor James was so intimidating, she has never seen him so intimidating, it seemed as if he might eat her.

CHAPTER 360 – NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE ANY CONTACT WITH PAUL

The light was dazzling, but as compared with that light Victor James's cold and fierce eyes were more dazzling.

Even Angela Carter, who had a huge experience in bullying Victor James, was scared and wanted to turn around and run away, but she forced her fear down.

Victor James took the initiative to come to her door. She must take good advantage of such a good opportunity and shouldn’t let him go.

Under the bright light, Angela Carter was naked, and her white jade-like skin was gradually dyed pinkly. She licked her lips and said proudly, "Victor James, if you are jealous, you still have the last chance."

Angela Carter said and also deliberately straightened out her chest.

Victor James's eyes narrowed. His eyes were as sharp as an X-ray scanner. He looked her up and down at the moment but his face was still gloomy as before.

Angela Carter was a little uneasy.

Since she has started, now she must carry it through whatever happens.

She rushed to him and threw herself into his arms and held him tightly, "Victor James, let's do it. Believe me, I can make you comfortable."

She has learned so many skills in adult movies. No matter the front or back, she was sure that she can do it properly. She was just waiting for him.

Victor James's body was stiff as if he was not moved by the beauty in front of him, but the blue tendons on his forehead betrayed him.

Angela Carter continued, "Victor, don't hesitate. While I'm willing to be with you, you should seize the opportunity. Don't wait for me to be lost. At that time do not regret."

"Victor James, in fact, I really like you. For example, when Mr. Paul kissed me today, I think of you in my mind, as the one who kisses me was you."

If Angela Carter hadn't said this, Victor James can still endure and keep himself calm. But when she said this and as he heard, his anger broke through his defensive line and his emotions were beyond his control.

He held Angela Carter's head and leaned over to kiss her fiercely. He not only kissed her but bit her, as if he was punishing her disobedience in this way.

 

Victor James was outwardly cold but deep and passionate inside!

His kiss was much more powerful than Angela Carter's imagination. All the moves she learned were useless. She responded to his kiss clumsily.

Angela Carter's heart kept beating and praying - Victor James, eat me, eat me. We'll have a few children. Otherwise, the bloodline of your family will be cut off.

When Angela Carter was fully prepared, she was suddenly pushed away by Victor James. He looked at her and said in a cold voice, "You are not allowed to have any contact with Paul."

"Who are you? What is your relationship with me? Are you responsible for me? I can be nice to any man, and I can be with any man, mind your own business!" Angela Carter bit her lips, pressed down her inner grievance and looked at him stubbornly.

Damn, the arrow was on the string and he took it back.

Is her charm not enough? Can’t she attract him? What's the reason?

"Indeed, I am no one. In front of any stranger, you can take off your clothes?" Victor James suddenly got up. Because of his extreme movements, he seemed to get up with a gust of wind.

As soon as Victor James said this, Angela Carter became angry. She also stood up, but she was much shorter than him. She could only look up at him, and the momentum dropped instantly.

She stood on the sofa, with one hand on her hips. She pointed to Victor James and scolded, "Victor James, don't fucking rely on my love for you and insults me anytime. Listen carefully, as long as I like you are a treasure in my heart. When I fucking stop liking you, you will become nothing."

That's enough.

This bastard, smelly and mean man think she can't find another man except him?

Angela Carter has money, beauty, body, and everything. There were many men to pursue her. Why should she keep this cruel and insensitive man?

 

Angela Carter's words were fierce, and she also wanted to move on, but she didn't know why tears slipped from her eyes.

She didn't want to cry, especially in front of him, but these damned tears were out of her control.

Angela Carter wiped her tear hard, pointed to the door and shouted, "Get out! Who the fuck asked you to come to my house. Go as far as you can go. Don't show up in front of me again."

Victor James didn't say anything. He tightly clenched his hands on his side into fists, and his eyes were blazing.

Regardless of everything, he can become her man, but one day when she will know the truth, she will hate him.

Victor James's eyes hid the pain, and then he took a look at Angela Carter. He turned around and left with vigorous and steady steps.

Angela Carter just said angry words. Unexpectedly, Victor James was really gone. She grabbed the teacup on the tea table and smashed it at him.

She used a lot of strength to smash the cup, and Victor James didn't hide. The cup hit his back and made a sharp sound, it must be very painful.

"Victor James, if you dare to leave, I'll find a man to sleep." He didn't hide. Angela Carter became angrier. She grabbed a cup again and smashed it at him.

But just as she finished speaking, Victor James stopped and turned around. Angela Carter noticed that the cup had already flown to Victor James. It was too late for her to stop. She could only watch the cup hitting Victor James's head…

The cup hit his head. Its pieces scratched his forehead, the blood squeezed out from the wound, one drop after another fell from his forehead, but he didn't even frown, as if he didn't feel the pain.

He looked at Angela Carter and said slowly, "I'm not your man. Where ever you go has nothing to do with me. Please don't disturb me again."

Victor James uttered the cruel words, turned around, opened the door, walked out, and slammed the door heavily.

Bang-

The sound of the door slamming scared Angela Carter.

She was aggrieved, sad, and angry.

All kinds of emotions welled up in her heart.

"Victor James, do you really think you are the only man in this world? Do you really think that Angela Carter can't live without you?"

Angela Carter was so angry that she jumped and scolded. She grabbed things and wanted to smash them. However, she herself brought these things, and she would be distressed if she smashed them.

She was reluctant to smash things, so she just scolded Victor James.

After all, scolding Victor James was free of cost.

She cursed him as much as she can, she cursed him that his body wouldn’t respond if he ever saw a woman except her.

At this time, Victor James was standing outside the door and listening to her.

If she can curse and yell, it proved that she was okay. When she sleeps and wakes up after that she will be that vigorous and lively Angela Carter again.

CHAPTER 361 – NOT ONLY TO JUST DRINK

Sometimes when he saw the person he loved right in front of him, he really wanted to hold her in his arms and love her well, but because of some things, he has to restrain himself.

Sometimes he wanted to leave the Jiangbei military region and take Angela Carter with him to go to a place where no one knows them so that they can live their lives well.

Victor James has had such an idea more than once. He wanted to leave everything and take Angela Carter with him.

However, he was still too rational. He thought, maybe Angela Carter was not as important in his heart as he thought. Every time his mind had this idea, he always used his reasoning to suppress his emotions.

He stood outside the door for long and when he confirmed that Angela Carter would not cause trouble again after venting, he turned around and left.

 

He just walked out, and Edwin Carter's phone call came in. He heard Edwin Carter saying, "Let’s go for a drink."

Victor James heard Edwin Carter's voice, looked up and saw Edwin Carter's car parked on the side of the road.

Victor James walked to the car, sat down in the car, and said, "I remember you don’t drink. Why do you think of drinking today? You don't have to go home to your wife and child?"

Edwin Carter started the car and said, "I haven't asked my uncle to drink together. I thought this is a good chance."

"Okay. Then we won’t go home until getting drunk!"

Edwin Carter nodded without speaking.

He didn't like drinking places, so the place he chose to drink was also a quiet place, a small bar near the sea.

There were many people but most of them came here for dating. They just drank wine and talked about love. The atmosphere was pleasant.

 

As soon as the two men with excellent appearance and powerful bearing appeared, they immediately attracted a lot of attention. The waiter's eyes fell on them, and the customers around them also couldn't move away their eyes.

Victor James said with a smile, "Hanging out with chairman Carter is to bask in the light. Just a walk, the rate of getting attention is much higher."

Edwin Carter didn't say a word. He seemed like a reserved figure who didn’t go close to ordinary people.

Edwin Carter and Victor James chose the elegant room on the second floor near the window, where they could see the pedestrians walking outside and the night view of the coast that wasn’t far away.

The wind blew steadily, the colorful neon lights were flashing, the scenery was so beautiful. This city corridor by the sea was indeed a good place for many couples to walk.

Edwin Carter still remembered the time when he invited Jane to eat out for the first time. After dinner, she said she wanted to come here for a walk, and he accompanied her.

That day she drank and got a little drunk. She told him a lot and pointed to the Bbay and said she wanted to build a sea paradise there.

Sea paradise, Edwin Carter listened and firmly remembered in the heart.

After sitting down, Victor James ordered wine but Edwin Carter ordered tea.

Victor James took a look at him and said with dissatisfaction, "ask me to drink, and you are drinking tea. Are you kidding me?"

"My wife and daughter don't like the smell of alcohol." In fact, Jane didn't say that she hated the smell of alcohol. Edwin Carter also remembered that Jane used to drink, but he didn't want to go to his wife and child with a smell of alcohol.

 

"I didn't expect that you a workaholic will value your wife and child so much." In all the memories of Victor James, Edwin Carter has always been a man who do everything as per his rule, a man whose each and every move was in an appropriate manner and a man whose presence can raise people's hackles.

He always thought that when Edwin Carter will get married one day and have children, it was just a continuation of bloodline for the Carter Family, and he would never focus on the family.

He has always been very accurate in looking at people. Unexpectedly, he mistook Edwin Carter. His care for his family impressed Victor James.

"Work is work. It's natural to work hard and make money so that one can live the life they want. But behavioral care is also necessary, otherwise, no matter how good one’s economic life is, he won’t feel happy." Edwin Carter said.

Even before getting married, Edwin Carter used to think that if he didn't feel the need of marriage he would not get married. But if he gets married, he will treat his wife well.

Only because he had such an idea he has been slow to find his feelings for Jane. He has always thought that he was good to her, only because she was his wife.

Victor James,"..."

In fact, he understood Edwin Carter's idea. He also wanted to marry Angela Carter, to bring her to his home, to love her well. So, he can stop her from making trouble outside again.

But he can't… He was not qualified to do that!

Drinks and snacks were delivered soon. Victor James was a soldier. He didn't need a glass of wine. He drank the bottle directly.

Edwin Carter did not move the tea and looked at Victor James thoughtfully.

 

Victor James finished drinking a bottle of wine, put the bottle on and said, "Edwin, it's impossible to get me drunk and let me talk."

Edwin Carter smiled quietly.

Victor James picked up chopsticks to eat snacks and said, "I've told you before that you have people you want to protect and I have people I want to protect. We should do our own things well."

Edwin Carter said, "uncle, I just invite you to drink, don't think too much."

"It's really that simple?" Edwin Carter didn't have much time to invite people to drink, so Victor James certainly didn't believe that he just invited him to drink.

Edwin Carter took a sip of tea, moistened his lips, and said, "I don't think I need to say. You already know the identity of Paul, the man who has an affair with Angela."

"Yes, I do." When Mr. Paul started following Angela, Victor James also sent people to check Paul's identity.

Edwin Carter said, "His appearance helped me to solve the secret that I have been unable to solve."

When Edwin Carter's word fell into Victor James's ears, his drinking action gave a slight pause and he said, "What do you know?"

"Aaron Paul, a native of state A. In the past he had been fixed his child marriage with the princess of the state. But twenty years ago, the princess family of the state A disappeared and no one knew where they went."

Victor James, "What do you want to do?"

Edwin Carter continued, "I believe that things weren't as simple. Maybe the truth wasn't what we can see on the surface. I want you to cooperate with me and together we'll try to find out what actually happened in those days."

"Why are you looking for me? If you want to check it, you can find it."

“Uncle, you have been checking for several years, but still haven't found a clue. I think there's a certain distance between the people under my hand and your intelligence personnel."

"We want this thing to sink forever, not to let it float to the surface."

Edwin Carter suddenly sneered, "You know some pieces of paper can't cover the fire. Instead of trying to sink these things in this way, it's better find out the truth and bring justice to everyone."

CHAPTER 362 – LOOKING FOR SOMEONE

It was already late when Edwin Carter came back after the meeting with Victor James.

Janell has been sleeping for a long time. Jane was making handmade clothes for Janell with a needle, thread and a piece of cloth in her hand.

For more than three years, she didn't watch Janell growing up, which was the biggest regret in Jane's heart. So now after coming back to Janell, she tried her best to do everything for Janell.

Edwin Carter has been standing at the door for a long time, but Jane still didn't notice him. He coughed softly to attract Jane's attention.

Jane was too focused on her work. Suddenly, she heard a voice and her hand shook slightly. The tip of the needle accidentally hit her finger, which made her frown slightly.

 

Edwin Carter strode over, grabbed Jane's hand, and saw that a little drop of blood was pouring out. He immediately put it into his mouth and sipped it gently.

A strange feeling spread all over her body from the tip of her finger that made her numb. She wanted to draw back her hand, but Edwin Carter bit it gently.

He let her go and said, "How you can be this much careless? If you can’t be careful then you are not allowed to do these things again."

"Did I ask you to take care of me," Jane said.

"Huh? Don't let me take care of you. Who do you want to take care of you?" Edwin Carter approached her, bit her ruddy face.

She pushed him, "You are a girl’s father, how can you be still this much nonserious."

 

"Yes, I am father. It shows I am a normal man." Edwin Carter put away the needle, thread, and cloth and picked up Jane. "Mrs. Carter, take a bath with me."

"Edwin Carter, I have already taken a bath." She has bathed for a long time. What she has to take a bath again?

"With me."

"I don’t want to!"

"I want to!"

Jane knew that Edwin Carter was not only asking her to take a bath with him… this villain…

…

She missed the Edwin Carter who was cold and reserved.

"Jane…" Edwin Carter stroked her head and called her name softly.

Jane buried her head in the pillow and ignored this bad man. She didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

Edwin Carter pulled her into his arms and smiled at her, "You are a mother of a child, still so shy, still so lovely."

Jane opened her mouth and took a bite on his chest. She snorted, "Bad guy!"

Edwin Carter bit her earlobe and said with a mischievous smile, "I'm only bad to you. Other women want me to be bad to them, but they didn’t get the honor."

"Mr. Carter, you are really so narcissistic?"

Jane finally understood why Janell is so narcissistic.

It was not taught by Angela Carter but inherited from this seemingly serious man. Obviously, she is his daughter she has his characteristics.

"I'm just telling a fact." Edwin Carter said.

Jane, "..."

Jane still chose to stay silent.

She was just a little fashion designer. She can’t be the opponent of Chairman Carter.

She heard that Robert Michael had said that Edwin Carter was the head of the debate team on the campus. It was just a dream to win from him in eloquence.

 

Edwin Carter bowed his head and kissed her. He took a long sigh of relief and said, "I can have a good sleep tonight."

Jane murmured in her heart, he meant that he didn’t sleep well before?

He is blaming her that he did not sleep well before?

Edwin Carter fell asleep contentedly while holding Jane, but Jane couldn't sleep well in his arms.

She hasn’t heard anything from Robert Michael in these two days, and she had no idea how things were going.

She thought if she found out the evidence against Carter’s old master, she and Edwin Carter can go on as they are now?

She didn't know!

If she and Edwin Carter…

With this thought, Jane turned her head and saw Janell lying beside. She gently pinched Janell’s cute face.

Jane sighed. If there was such a day, she wouldn't want anything except her daughter Janell.

"What are you thinking, Mrs. Carter?" The voice of the man who had fallen asleep suddenly sounded.

Jane shook her head and said, "It’s not early. You have to go to work tomorrow, sleep earlier."

From Jane's tone, Edwin Carter could sense that there must be something hidden in her heart. He rubbed her head and said, "Jane, remember what I said to you, or I will be hard to you."

Obviously, it was a threat, but Jane heard his deep concern. She smiled, "Yes, Mr. Carter!"

...

The next day-

The sun was high in the sky, and the earth seemed to be about to split open.

Even on such a hot day, people were still busy and doing what they should do without stopping for a moment.

 

Mr. Paul was sitting in the best cafe in Jiangbei. This cafe was invested and opened by a famous person of state A, to commemorate a deceased.

Mr. Paul liked this place very much. He used to come here every weekend when he was in Jiangbei. He always ordered a cup of Blue Mountain coffee together with a black forest and stayed here for a long time.

Today, there wasn’t an exception.

But compared with the past when he was alone, today Mr. Paul had a "friend" to accompany him.

Edwin Carter sat opposite to Mr. Paul. He was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, with gold-rimmed glasses as usual. The pupils behind the glasses were deep and quiet. No one could see any emotion. His temperament was as cold and reserved as a king.

He sat there and stared at Mr. Paul with his deep eyes.

Mr. Paul felt that he was oppressed. However, he has been living in the royal family of state A for so many years. Even though he was amazed by Edwin Carter's aura, he can still talk calmly as before.

Mr. Paul picked up his coffee, and the fragrance rushed into his nose, "on such a hot day, Mr. Carter made a special visit. Is there anything special?"

Edwin Carter smiled, but his eyes were still as quiet as before, "Mr. Paul knows better. Why do you ask so while knowing the answer?"

In recent days, Edwin Carter has found out the identity of Mr. Paul. He was sure that Mr. Paul has some information that he hasn't found out yet, so he made this appointment.

Mr. Paul naturally understood Edwin Carter's words. He just wanted to give Edwin Carter an initial show of strength, so that he could have some benefit but Edwin Carter gave a straight forward reply.

Mr. Paul smiled and said, "in this case., we don't need to talk nonsense. Let's come to the point."

"That's what I meant." Edwin Carter pushed his glasses and narrowed his narrow eyes that pressed out a sharp light.

Mr. Paul felt that there was a needle on his back.

However, Edwin Carter's lips were smiling.

Edwin Carter said calmly, "I heard that Mr. Paul has been looking for someone for more than ten years?"

Mr. Paul nodded, "It’s true."

Edwin Carter slightly raised his eyebrows, "have you found it?"

"I found it." Mr. Paul put down his coffee and said, "I would like to thank Mr. Carter, her identity is noble. She has been away for so many years but thanks to your Carter Family for taking good care of her. Otherwise, I can’t even imagine how much she has to suffer."

CHAPTER 363 – ANGELA’S PARENTS

Edwin Carter shook his head, and the smile at the corner of his mouth suddenly shrank, "no need, she is my sister."

No matter what status Angela Carter has, first of all, she was a child of the Carter Family and his sister.

"Oh?" Mr. Paul sighed, "Mr. Carter must have found Angela's identity. Her mother was the princess of state A. If their family had not suddenly disappeared in Jiangbei, leading to the exile of Angela, she would not be Miss Carter as now."

Mr. Paul's words meant that Edwin Carter was not qualified to be Angela’s brother.

Mr. Paul's sarcasm was obvious, but Edwin Carter's mood was still the same. He has been in the business industry for more than ten years, and he was not the one who can be scared by a few words.

Edwin Carter looked at Mr. Paul, and in a perfectly composed manner, he said, "Even if she was Angela Carter for a day, she will stay my sister forever. As for her mother... I don't care whether her mother was a princess or a beggar. What's more..."

Edwin Carter stopped, the eyes looking at Mr. Paul were no longer quiet, as if there were sea waves gathering in his eyes.

"What's more, I didn't come here for her identity at all. I just want to know, at that time who killed Angela's parents? Is it relevant to George Michael?"

Paul’s smiling face unexpectedly showed a surprised expression.

It took him more than ten years to find Angela and understand what happened to the princess family in Jiangbei at that time.

But… Edwin Carter found so many clues in just a dozen days.

When Mr. Paul looked at Edwin Carter, he had to sigh again that it was a pity that this man belonged to a family with a strong business and commercial background.

With Edwin Carter's ability and momentum what's the difficulty in ruling a country?

Paul hooked his lips and smiled, "why do I tell you? Mr. Carter is a businessman. You should know how to make a deal."

"What do you want?" Edwin Carter frowned.

Mr. Paul looked at Edwin Carter and said with a smile, "well, only Mr. Carter has what I want, but I'm afraid you won't give it to me."

Edwin Carter said calmly, "say it."

Mr. Paul approached Edwin Carter and whispered, "Jane Ronan!"

"Jane? You want Jane?" Edwin Carter sneered and looked at Mr. Paul with fierce eyes as if he could send him to the end of the world.

"Yes. I just want her." Prince Paul ignored Edwin Carter's fierce killing intention, and continued, "Chairman Carter, would you give her to me?"

Edwin Carter looked at Mr. Paul, his eyes were slightly convergent and he seemed to be smiling and serious at the same time.

Edwin Carter had a slight smirk on his face, and it was surprising Mr. Paul felt his back cold. But he has been in the officialdom for many years and has already acquired the ability to keep his face unchanged.

Mr. Paul said with a smile, "Chairman Carter, don't look at me like that. I will be afraid. If you don't want to, say it. I don't have the ability to take her away, so she's yours."

Edwin Carter leaned firmly on the chair, casually as he was in his home and said with an unchanged face, "Mr. Paul, you and I both know things well. Why don’t you say directly what you actually want?"

Mr. Paul wanted to fight a psychological war with Edwin Carter. He wanted to disturb his mind first by taking advantage of Jane, and then he took the opportunity to put forward his real purpose.

 

Once again, he miscalculated the strength of Edwin Carter. This man's psychology was far stronger than he imagined. Instead of disturbing the mind, he was seen through by Edwin Carter.

Mr. Paul sighed, "Mr. Carter deserves to be the emperor of the business world. You can see things better than those ordinary people."

Edwin Carter didn't answer. He just looked at Mr. Paul.

Under Edwin Carter's fierce gaze, Mr. Paul continued, "I can tell you what I know, but you need to do me a favor. And no one can help me except you, Mr. Carter."

Edwin Carter said coldly, "say it."

Paul paused for a while, and slowly said, "I'm going to take Angela Carter back to State A."

Edwin Carter's eyes narrowed slightly under the golden mirror frame and he said slowly and calmly, "Angela is an adult. She has the right to choose whether to stay here or not, no one can force her."

Mr. Paul said, "What I want is Mr. Carter's words. As long as Angela is willing to go back to country A with me, none of you can force her to stay. If someone else stops, I hope you can help me."

If Angela Carter is willing to go back to state A to recognize her family, as long as it was her own will, Edwin Carter will never stop her.

However, if Angela Carter is not willing to leave, he will not let anyone force her to leave.

"Mr. Paul can tell me what you know." Edwin Carter said so, obviously, he agreed to the request put forward by Mr. Paul.

Mr. Paul said, "Mr. Carter know almost everything that I know."

 

Edwin Carter sat still and didn't answer, he waited for Paul to continue.

"George Michael made false evidence and framed a couple from country A as spies who stole military secrets from Jiangbei military region, which led to the disappearance of the couple in Jiangbei, and there was still no news yet," Mr. Paul said.

When it came to George Michael, Mr. Paul gritted his teeth.

If George Michael didn't make false evidence, then Angela's parents would not disappear in Jiangbei. Now he didn't know whether they were alive or dead. If George Michael had not died twenty years ago, he would have dealt with the old man himself.

Edwin Carter snorted and said, "How can you be sure it's the false evidence that he made? How can we be sure that the husband and wife did not really steal military secrets?"

After hearing Edwin Carter's query, Paul found that he really had no evidence.

Paul only found that George Michael pointed out that Angela's parents were military spies from state A, and there was no evidence that Angela's parents were innocent.

Paul thought that they would never come to Jiangbei with a child to steal military secrets, so he decided that her parents were framed.

In this time of Mr. Paul's mental activities, Edwin Carter has figured up these things almost.

George Michael pointed out that Angela's parents were military spies from state A. after that, Angela's parents seemed to have disappeared. No one knew whether they were alive or dead.

According to Jonathan Ronan, the reason why George Michael died was that he killed a very important person, so the old man sent people to kill him.

Now, there were only two doubts.

Are Angela's biological parents dead or alive?

What is the relationship between her parents and the old man?

These two doubts were most clear to the old man.

Edwin Carter got up. It seemed that he has to go to the old man to get the truth out of his mouth.

CHAPTER 364 – FORCED INTO A DEAD END

Almost all things have come to the surface.

Now the only thing that Edwin Carter still has doubts was just why the old man was too cruel to Jane?

If it was just because George Michael indirectly killed someone who was very important to the old man, it was better for the old man to seek revenge from Robert Michael, the only son of the Michael family.

Even if Edwin Carter's brain was so powerful and flexible, why can't he think about it?

When he closed his eyes and thought about it, the driver had already reached today's second destination, the farm, where the old master of the Carter Family was living temporarily.

At this time, the sun was still high in the sky, but because the greenery around the farm was very lush, it was blocking the sun rays and it was not as hot here as it was outside.

 

The old master has lived here for a while. Almost every day he had the same routine, drinking tea, taking care of gardening and playing chess. He was living a comfortable life.

When Edwin Carter arrived, the old man and his assistant Joseph were sitting in the pavilion playing chess. There were a few pieces left.

The old man's chess game has forced Joseph to a dead end. If Joseph won't do well in this step, the old man will be in a checkmate position.

"Young master, you are here." The assistant saw Edwin Carter and moved aside, "If you don’t mind, play with old master."

Edwin Carter didn't refuse. He sat down on Joseph’s position. His sharp eyes swept the chess game, and he took a step.

The chess game that had just been decided to lose suddenly came to life. No matter how the old man went, he couldn't make it.

After a few more rounds, the old man began to struggle. He watched and thought about it. After the last step, a piece of chess fell, he stared blankly at the condition when he saw his victory turning into defeat just in front of his eyes.

Just now when he was playing with Joseph, he only needed to take another step to win the game.

How did Edwin Carter turn his victory into defeat?

"I'm an old man. As my younger generation, can't you be merciful and don’t force me to death."

Edwin Carter said with deep meaning, "I never thought of forcing you to death, but every step you take was a killing move. If I don't guard against you, I will be the last one to die miserably."

They seemed to be talking about chess, but they both knew that they were not only talking about chess but also about their present situation.

Edwin Carter wanted to make the old man understand that he won’t take the initiative to offend him. However, if the old man left no option, he would have to fight to protect himself.

However, he was his grandfather. It was impossible for him to kill his grandfather. He can only control his freedom like now.

Old master Carter said, "Joseph, go and get my best Pu'er tea. Make tea for us and let the young master taste it. Let’s see does it worth the price."

"I'll bring it now." He understood that grandfather had something to say to his grandson, he gave the tea to them and wisely found an excuse to leave first.

Assistant Joseph left and the old man suddenly sneered, "Why you took time to come here? Do you want to see how long I can live?"

 

Edwin Carter calmly arranged the chess pieces, took a few sips of tea, and then said slowly, "Your condition seems good, you have strength, you are speaking so powerfully, there must be no problem living for decades. I'm here today to play chess with you."

"No matter how good my health is, I'm going to die because of an un-filial grandson like you." The old master swept all the pieces arranged by Edwin Carter and with a wave of the hand threw them on the ground. He said angrily, "you and I both know it well. Don't pretend in front of me."

"If you are so direct, I won't beat around the bush." Edwin Carter sat up straight and looked at the old man. Then he said, "in fact. I came to you to confirm one thing."

"You think I'll tell you?"

"You will."

"Huh..."

"Because you love Angela and you want her to live happily forever like now."

"You..."

After hearing Edwin Carter's words, he was surprised.

The old master didn’t believe that Edwin Carter could find anything about Angela so soon without any clues.

But after listening to Edwin Carter's words, it was clear that Edwin knew that it had something to do with Angela. The old master didn't want to believe it, but he had to believe it.

"In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't say it. I just want to tell you that I will always be Angela's brother," Edwin Carter said.

He considered himself as Angela Carter's elder brother, so he will naturally protect Angela Carter as before and love her as his own sister.

But the things that old man has done showed that he did not regard Edwin Carter as the offspring of the Carter family.

The old man was slightly shocked and said, "What do you want to say?"

"Nothing." Edwin Carter changed his mind and got up to leave.

Because he knew that he could not get any clues from the old man.

Before coming here, he had some illusions. He hoped that the old man would understand and repent, but now it seemed he was wrong.

"Edwin, I have to ask a question. Between Jane and Carter's family, you can only choose one. Who do you choose?"

Behind Edwin Carter, there was old master’s voice, but Edwin Carter did not look back.

Carter Family was his root, and Jane was his wife. They were equally important to him, so he wanted them both and it was impossible to give up one.

Assistant Joseph looked at Edwin Carter getting on the car, the car went far away. He stared at Edwin Carter's car with two cold eyes until it disappeared, and then he took back his eyes.

He said, "Old master, I have done it exactly how you told me."

The old man nodded and said, "Is there any news from Jane’s side?"

Joseph said, "She hardly went out in so many days. The only time she went out was to find Robert Michael. She stayed at Robert Michael's house for about half an hour and came back."

"She went to Robert Michael? Is there any news from Robert Michael’s side?"

"There is nothing."

"..." The old master was silent.

"Don't you think that evidence is not in Jane's hands?" The assistant was confused.

The old man frowned and thought, "Impossible."

At that time, before his death, he only met Jane's mother and gave her something.

At that time, the old man didn't stop her because he didn't know that they had such an important evidence in their hands. When he came to know it, there was no place to find it.

The old master said, "Continue to send people to watch, whatever it takes, we have to get the evidence."

If the evidence was leaked, the reputation that he has built in his life will be destroyed, and everything will be destroyed.

If he is destroyed, what will happen to Angela?

CHAPTER 365 – DON’T TELL JANE

Most of the day has passed when Edwin Carter finished dealing with his personal affairs.

But he wasn’t free yet. Shengtian has a lot of things to deal with, and he needed to make a lot of decisions. For Shengtian, for the Carter family, for Jane and for his daughter, he could not let himself relax for a moment.

Especially at this critical moment, he must have to be vigilant. He cannot afford to make any mistakes.

As soon as Edwin Carter returned to the office, the secretary delivered the documents that needed to be handled in person.

Edwin Carter picked up the document and turned it over. He looked at it, and the font on the document gradually became blurred and his head became heavier.

Edwin Carter quickly closed his eyes, took off his glasses, raised his hand and rubbed his temples, hoping to make his dull brain better.

 

But even after two minutes, the situation didn’t get better. It even became more serious. He opened his eyes, and all the things he saw were blurred.

For a long time, he had very short rest time. No matter how tired he was, he didn't face such a situation as today.

He didn't know what had happened to him.

Edwin Carter grabbed the landline on his desk and wanted to call his secretary to make him a cup of coffee to refresh his mind.

His outstretched hand grabbed the empty space and hung down feebly. He wanted to raise his hand to grab the phone but his strong body leaned forward and he leaned on the desk feebly.

He tried to move but found that there was no power to move his fingers.

How could this happen?

Edwin Carter struggled to keep the last trace of sobriety. He thought about the cup of tea the old man gave him.

Today, after he went out, the only thing he had taken was that cup of tea.

Can it be that old man….

His head gradually became heavy. He had no strength to think, he was lying on the table and for the first time, he felt so powerless and helpless.

No, he can't collapse…

If he collapsed, who would take care of Jane and Janell?

He is his wife’s daughter's back, he must have to stand up.

 

Edwin Carter gathered his strength, gritted his teeth and tried to sit up. However, his weak body defeated his strong will, and he fell back heavily.

Knock knock-

The door was knocked from outside and Luis George came in, "Chairman Carter -"

Before he had finished speaking, he found that Edwin Carter was abnormal and rushed over, "Chairman Carter, what's the matter?"

"Don’t… don’t... Jane…" Edwin Carter said these words intermittently and lost his consciousness.

If there was someone else, he would not know what Edwin Carter wanted to say, but Luis George understood.

Edwin Carter wanted to say, "don’t tell anything to Jane."

Even at this time, when he was about to collapse, he was still worried about Jane.

Luis George also felt sad for his master, but he didn't have time to think about anything else. He had to send Edwin Carter to the hospital as soon as possible.

Luis George called the people and sent Edwin Carter to the Shengtian hospital at the fastest speed. Even after the detailed examination, the doctor couldn't find out why Edwin Carter suddenly fainted.

Edwin Carter's breathing and heartbeat were normal in all aspects. All functions were the same as normal people, but… he was still unconscious.

He can't move, can't open his eyes, and can’t talk, as if he was a living dead man.

...

It was nine o'clock in the evening.

Jane and Janell practiced Taekwondo together and then went for a walk in the yard. They walked not far from the gate. They thought that Edwin Carter would come back soon.

They waited for long until Janell was sleepy but Edwin Carter didn’t come back.

 

In the evening, Jane has received a message from Edwin Carter saying that he has to go for dinner in the evening and would come back a bit late.

Jane thought that he was on some formal gathering, so she didn't call to disturb him.

She went back to the room with Janell in her arms and helped the little girl taking a bath.

Janell loved playing with water very much. She had a good time sitting in her exclusive bath. She poured water on her body without paying attention to her.

"Janell, stop it."

"Mom, I want to play."

Jane picked her up and said softly, "Janell, you'll catch a cold if you keep playing with water for too long. Tomorrow you have to go to kindergarten, you should go to bed early so that you can look more beautiful."

Janell blinked the big eyes and asked softly, "Mom if I become more beautiful, what will mom and dad do?"

Janell thought that she was already very beautiful. If she becomes more beautiful and her father and mother will not be as beautiful as her, then she will look better than her father and mother in the future.

For her, it was not a good thing. She wanted her parents to be as beautiful as her.

"Mom and dad will be beautiful, too." Jane took the bath towel to wrap Janell up, gently dried her body, dried her hair and put on her little pajamas.

"Mom, dad, and Janell all will become beautiful together," Janell said softly.

"Well, yes, we will become beautiful together." Jane kissed Janell's chubby face. "lie down and go to sleep."

 

"Janell will wait for daddy. I have to tell him a secret."

"What secret Janell want to tell daddy?"

Janell stretched out her hand to cover Jane's mouth, "it’s a secret, Janell will only tell it to daddy."

Jane grabbed Janell's hands and kissed them, pretending to be sad, "mom is so sad, Janell has a secret to tell dad but not to tell mom."

Janell saw her mother was about to cry, she became anxious, she quickly held Jane’s face, "mom, don’t cry."

"Janell didn't tell her mother the secret." Jane pretended to rub her eyes as if she was crying bitterly.

"Whoa-" when Janell saw her mother crying, she was so sad that she couldn't help it. She also started crying with a loud worried voice.

"Janell..." Jane hurriedly hugged Janell, lightly patted her back to comfort way, "baby, mom was teasing you. See, mom isn’t crying."

"Mom is not good!" Janell rubbed eyes. Her long eyelashes still had crystal tears.

How can her mom cheat her? Mom made her scared.

"Yes, mom is not good. Now, lie down. I’ll calls dad and asks when he will come back. We have a secret to tell him."

"Okay." Janell nodded with satisfaction.

Jane lay down beside Janell, picked up her mobile phone and called Edwin Carter.

She called for a long time but no one answered.

Jane thought that maybe Edwin Carter was still busy and didn't hear his cell phone ringing.

Jane took back her mobile phone and smiled apologetically at Janell, "baby, dad is still busy working, you go to bed first. Tomorrow when dad comes back you can tell the secret, Okay?"

Janell obediently nodded, "Ok. Good night, mom, good night, dad."
