Wendy sighed. How was she supposed to explain this to Jordan?

Jordan looked harmless enough on the surface now, but the first impression she'd left on Owen had sunk in deep he simply wasn't willing to risk letting her closer.

"I won't go in," Wendy said politely. "If there's something you want to say, tell me right here."

Owen was the person Jordan liked, after all. Singling Wendy out like this wouldn't make Jordan give up if anything, it might make her suspicious, wondering whether Wendy was s

  • Divorced, Then Married His Rival   Chapter 97: What If I Said Yes?

    Wendy had only been joking. A piano was far too large to haul out to the sports field.Sophie, though, agreed immediately. Wendy hurriedly waved her off. "No, that'd draw way too much attention."Sophie pouted. "But I want to hear it.""Then I'll play for you in a classroom.""No I want to hear it on the field."Sophie wasn't normally this unreasonable, and her persistence put Wendy in a bind. She'd happily grant any small request Sophie made but a piano was just too much.Wendy thought for a moment. "I could play the zither instead.""You play zither, sister-in-law?" Sophie lit up. "That works too! I'll arrange it."Sophie made a call, and the two of them wandered the field, chatting.Sophie was deeply curious about the story between Wendy and Julian, and Wendy, having nothing to say on the subject, tried to redirect. "Sophie, pick a different topic.""Any topic?""Sure as long as we're done talking about your brother."She worried that saying too much would expose the truth about t

  • Divorced, Then Married His Rival   Chapter 96: I Can Put Whoever I Want at the Front

    Sophie froze, then asked, awkward, "Why are you asking that all of a sudden?""You're old enough that having someone wouldn't be strange. If you do, there's no need to feel shy. If you ever run into trouble, you can tell us."Sophie looked down at the table. "Not yet. When I do, I'll tell you.""Okay. You'd better be the first to tell me."Sophie spent the whole day with Wendy, though she kept checking her phone every so often.Seeing Wendy's puzzled look, she explained, "Class group chat. There's an activity coming up and everyone's discussing it."Wendy nodded, understanding, and didn't ask further.Sophie had a class in the afternoon. "Sister-in-law, go rest at the guest room. I'll come find you after.""Can I sit in on it?"Sophie nodded. "Sure.""Then I'll come with you."Sophie paused, then smiled. "Okay."It wasn't a major course, just a general-requirement class. The lecture hall was huge and packed. The professor launched into the lecture the instant he walked in, no roll cal

    "What are you doing here?""I came to see Sophie," Wendy said.Brandon looked confused. "Why didn't she come pick you up? Did she know you were coming?""No, it's a surprise," Wendy said, smiling. "Can you get me in?"Brandon nodded and quickly spoke to the security guard. The guard looked over Brandon's ID. "Visitors need to be out by night. Anyone who wants to stay overnight needs approval from the school.""Understood. Thanks, sir."The two bodyguards followed them in too. They had to leave their company and personal information at the gate otherwise, with their size and build, the guard wouldn't have let them through so easily.Campus security was responsible for keeping students safe. If a dangerous person slipped in, that guard would carry the guilt for life.The guard read the details the bodyguards left, saw they were both veterans, and asked no further questions.Wendy and Brandon walked ahead. "Want to go find her now?" Brandon asked. "She's in the library.""At the reading

    Wendy wanted to tell Julian how unlikely something like this was to happen again but she didn't realize it was the first time she'd seen him, normally so composed, genuinely rattled.She pulled back slightly and said with a smile, "Didn't I say I'd learn self-defense? I'm free lately. I'll go sign up for a class."His expression eased a little. "No need to sign up. I'll have an instructor come to you. You and Sophie can train together.""Sure. Does Sophie have the time?""You haven't been in touch with her lately?"Wendy shook her head. "Not in a while."The last time they'd spoken was when Julian had been withdrawn and tight-lipped, and Wendy had gone to Sophie for advice.Before that, Sophie had always been the one to reach out first. Wendy had been busy lately and hadn't gone looking for her, and Sophie hadn't contacted her either, so naturally they'd drifted out of touch."It's late. I'll talk to her tomorrow.""Okay. Get some sleep."The next day, on her way to the hospital, Wend

  • Divorced, Then Married His Rival   Chapter 93: I Don't Know How to Keep You Safe

    Wendy sat in the passenger seat, Scarlett's words still circling in her mind.Kindness is a good thing.It was. There was no reason to abandon it just because of a few terrible people.It echoed what Jordan had said earlier, and what Scarlett herself had told them days ago. Scarlett clearly had thought it through."Look at you," Jordan said, glancing over. "That smile's about to split your face.""I'm in a good mood," Wendy said, smiling. "Of course I'm smiling."Jordan was in a good mood too. They'd just driven back toward the city when someone stepped into the road ahead.Jordan slowed, curious. "Why's an old man wandering around out here at night instead of sleeping?"Wendy found it odd too, but before she could put her finger on why, the old man suddenly collapsed.Startled, she opened the door and hurried out. "Sir, are you all right?"He seemed to be in terrible pain, unable to get up.Wendy, so concerned, didn't register anything off. She walked straight up and crouched beside

    Wendy was speechless for a long moment.So that explained it. The noises people claimed to hear at night weren't ghosts at all they were the proprietress's son, locked in the basement, trying to get out."Can you tell whether he accidentally got stuck down there or whether someone did it on purpose?" Jordan asked.The female officer shifted, uncomfortable. "I can't say much before the case is resolved."That answer told them everything they needed to know.Two out of three family members had now been found. One was still missing.Maybe he'd escaped. Maybe he'd been killed. Until the truth surfaced, anything was possible."It's getting dark," the officer said. "If you don't live around here, would you like me to drive you back?""No need," Jordan said. "With me around, nobody's messing with us."The officer smiled. "Fair enough. Drive safe, both of you."Rather than head straight home, Wendy and Jordan stopped by to see Scarlett.She was still holed up in her house as though she never
