CHAPTER 132"Believe me, you wouldn't even recognize me because I had gone dead pale with shock. I'm still trying to recover from it all," Rose said quietly into her phone while she flipped through a fashion magazine.The person at the other end of the phone said something that made her chuckle."I could have killed her if it wouldn't put me in jail, to be honest." She then sighed and closed the magazine."I'm getting more pressured by the day, honey, and with that bitch gone now, it's even more intense. What are we going to do?"Unknown to her, Lilian was walking up the stairs with a red and a blue gown on her arm. One of her friends was hosting her birthday party that night and she wasn't sure which dress to wear. And since Caleb had insisted that she let Jane rest for her seminar tomorrow rather than trouble her with her trivial questions, she was left with no other choice but to ask her mother's opinion.She knocked once, opened the door and was about to start whining about her i

CHAPTER 134Caleb tried calling again for the tenth time and worry was beginning to creep into his being. The same automatic response came: "the number you're trying to call is not reachable at the moment..."He was sure that she had already left the airport and was on her way home, and so her phone could not have been on airplane mode.So why wasn't she picking up? He asked himself and tried calling again. When he tried a few more times and the response was the same, his panic rose. He got out of the bed and walked downstairs where he saw Lilian on the dinner table with her laptop and books sprawled about her."Could you help put a call across to Jane? I've been trying to reach her for the past fifty minutes and I'm beginning to get worried," he said while quickly composing a text as well.Lilian's brows creased with concern and she searched through different pages of different books for her phone."Shouldn't she be on her way by now? She was to return today, right?""Yes, yes, yes.

CHAPTER 136The reporters were always outside the mansion whenever anyone drove out. They swarmed around the car, hungry for updates, whenever they saw that Caleb was in it and even Lilian had to limit her movements because the ubiquitous reporters were also hunting her down for information.The news of Jane's mysterious disappearance had spread like wildfire. It was on every lip, it was trending on social media, gossip magazines and blogs were swarming with commenters, some desperate to know the actual story and others, spreading rumors on what they believe had happened. In just 3 days, different versions of her disappearance was published and Caleb had to take a break from social media because the things he heard and read were taking a mental toll on him.Some said that Jane had deliberately ran away because Caleb had forced her to get pregnant against her will so he could find a reason for his illegitimate son to not be a benefactor of his wealth. Some said the whole party was all

CHAPTER 138Jane was propped up against the wall, staring into the thin air as she waited for what would become of her life from now on. She wondered what Caleb must be going through, looking for her, and she had no idea how to provide clues to finding her when she had no idea where she was and how she had even gotten here.Her head was still woozy and she felt sick. Her breathing had become more labored as the days went by and the hope of escaping had also began to dissipate.She heard the clinking of a bunch of keys and knew that Marcus was back with whatever was supposed to be her breakfast.She had totally lost track of time and could only tell when it was morning and evening from the rays of the sun."You must be hungry," Marcus said as he walked in, a plate of food in one hand. He closed the door and locked it with his free hand.Jane continued to stare straight ahead, as though she was not aware of his presence. It seemed like too much work to even raise her eyes to look at him

CHAPTER 140Diane was extremely uncooperative when the officers asked her to come down to the station. It took a lot of convincing before she finally decided to go along with them.Now at the interrogation room, she kept a straight face and managed to control her breathing as the two detectives, Cain and Tanner stared back at her. They were the detectives who sheriff Ross had asked to conduct the questioning."Miss Diane, is there anything personal you have against Jane Lockwood? Or perhaps is there something she did to a close friend of yours?"Diane clenched her jaw and stared at the wall behind them. "I'm not saying a word until my lawyer gets here."Cain sighed heavily and shook his head."You don't have to bother about having a lawyer or not, Miss Diane, this is more like an interview...consider it a discussion."Diane stared at him with uncertainty, as if considering whether or not he should be trusted."You are free to leave if you want to, but I just want you to know that we'
