Все главы Enchanting Night: Глава 1 - Глава 8

After watching my trending topic soar to the top of the list, I happily prepared to sleep.Within half an hour, I heard Cade's hurried, heavy footsteps approaching."Jodi! Is this how you're getting back at me? Who is that man?"A picture was thrown at my face.Half the picture was my suggestive bedroom photo, while the other half was a passionate shot of Cade pinning Summer Langford against a window.This was exactly the trending news I had the paparazzi release.[Finley Couple Reaches New Agreement To Each Have Their Own Fun]I sat on the edge of the bed, casually tightening my nightgown around myself."Isn't this exactly what you wanted? The one thing you shouldn't have done is to embarrass me by fooling around with my father’s illegitimate daughter!"Cade's breath hitched. Instead of responding to my words, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is he?""You don't need to know. It's only fair."Once upon a time, I swore to unearth every detail about his lovers.I was youn

Every word Cade spoke was so clear yet so painful.Everyone hid the truth about my mother's death from me, including Cade, whom I trusted unconditionally.Back then, I ran to the police station in the rain, and Cade got into a car accident while chasing after me.He climbed out of the car with difficulty, gripped my ankle with a bloody hand, and said, "Jodi, go home. Leave the rest to me."I naively believed he would seek justice for my mother and me, because I never believed that my mother would abandon me.But to my dismay, both my father and my husband betrayed me.The next day, I appeared at Summer's birthday party in a disheveled state.Summer intimately held Cade's arm while enthusiastically showing off the heirloom jade ring he gave her, as if she truly was Cade's wife.When I entered, everyone's eyes fell on me, some with disdain, others with mockery.Cade looked relaxed, assuming I was going to beg for forgiveness like before. He spread his arms towards me.Unfortuna

Cade stood rooted to the spot, stunned by the scene before him.The solemn cemetery was now completely covered in exploded dirt."H-how could this happen?"He only pulled out the remote to scare Jodi. He never actually intended to press it.Jodi's mother's tombstone was blown to pieces, and the only portrait of her was buried in the dirt.The cemetery manager ran up to him."Mr. Finley, I don't know what happened. It was already like this when I got here."Cade clenched his fists in anger."You can't do anything right. Get out of my sight!"He knew very well that this cemetery was more precious to Jodi than her own life.Her mother's passing was a wound that she would carry forever.Because he knew this, he never thought of actually detonating the bomb.It was just a precaution.His gaze fell on a pool of blood on the ground.Around it, there were some scattered items.He recognized those items as Jodi's.Seeing the glaring blood on the ground, he suddenly recalled that

When I opened my eyes again, Sam Truman was sitting at my bedside."You're finally awake."When I was rescued at the cemetery, I had faintly caught a whiff of the unique jasmine fragrance on him.Once, Sam was my neighbor. He was like an older brother to me. He planted jasmines with me and grew up with me.And now, years later, he saved me from peril.Sam asked hesitantly, "That trending news about you a few days ago… was it true?"I smiled helplessly."You know me, I won't degrade myself for a man."Perhaps when I took that fake photo, I did have the thought of testing Cade.Did he care about me? Would he be jealous?But I forgot that, no matter how much he cared about me, his heart would still have room for other women.I didn't want to be stupid anymore.Hearing this, Sam looked at me with a complicated expression and tucked some stray hairs behind my ear."Maybe we can make it real?"I thought Sam was just joking. I couldn't believe he actually uploaded an intimate ph
