Beyond His Reach のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Yvette Johnson never would have learned their secret if she had not fallen down the stairs and lost her baby. As she drifted in and out of consciousness, she overheard a conversation between Jordan, Xander, and Jade."You two are so good to me. All I had to do was ask, and you made sure Yvette lost her baby. What if she wakes up and finds out she's lost the child she wanted so badly? Won't she be furious?"Jordan Spencer lounged lazily. A mocking glint flashed in his dark eyes. "How could she ever deserve to have our child? We've been secretly giving her birth control for years. Who knew she'd get so lucky…?""She throws herself at us every time. We only give in once in a while." Xander Spencer looked up. His voice was cold and merciless. "But I've already told the doctor to remove her uterus. She'll never have a chance to get pregnant again."Jade Harrison looked disappointed. "It's just a shame we'll never know whether the baby was Xander's or Jordan's."Yvette finally realize

Five minutes later, Jordan climbed back aboard with Jade in his arms.Jade lay limp in his arms. Her face was deathly pale. Jordan looked at Yvette with undisguised disgust."Yvette, what did Jade ever do to you? Why would you go so far just to hurt her?""I told you I didn't do it! It wasn't me!"She did not even know where the projector was connected. How could she possibly have done something like that?"There are only four of us living in the villa! If you didn't do it, are you saying Jade did it to herself?"Yvette was about to point out that Jade might have staged the whole thing herself, but Jordan cut her off before she could speak.He shot her a cold look, then turned to the bodyguards nearby. "Throw her into the sea! Leave her there until I say otherwise. Nobody is allowed to bring her back aboard before then!"Yvette struggled desperately, but she was no match for the bodyguards.They pinned her to the deck, tied her hands and feet with thick ropes, and threw her ov

Jordan carried Yvette to the car and helped her inside.He gently kissed the top of her head. His voice was full of concern. "Yvette, Xander was behind this. He was angry because you leaked Jade's intimate video and made her jump into the sea."I've already confronted him about it. He agreed to let the matter drop and promised he wouldn't bother you again."Yvette was still terrified. Her teeth chattered uncontrollably.When she heard Jordan's words, she seemed to come back to her senses. She stared at him in horror.Jordan felt a strange pang in his chest. "Yvette, I know you've suffered, but Xander didn't have them actually have sex with you. If you keep holding a grudge over this, you're being unreasonable."Yvette's heart had been broken so badly that she felt strangely calm."Fine. I understand."She would let it go.She could not win against him, so she would leave him.That night, Yvette came down with a high fever. She alternated between feeling freezing cold and burn

Yvette did not know how much time had passed before she finally woke up in the hospital.Two nurses nearby were chatting."Those two handsome guys in Room 608 are so sweet to Ms. Harrison! She only has a few minor injuries, but they're so worried about her that they even carry her to the bathroom.""Tell me about it. Just now, Ms. Harrison poured herself a glass of water, and those two nearly panicked. They were terrified something might happen to her.""Then, there's poor Ms. Yvette Johnson. It's been a whole day, and not a single person has come to visit her.""Exactly. Some people really do have all the luck, while others have none."Yvette placed a hand over her chest. The heart that had once hurt so badly she could barely breathe felt completely numb.Her love for Jordan finally died.A short while later, Jordan walked into the room.Jordan froze for a moment when he saw Yvette lying quietly in bed. Her face was pale, and she looked utterly still.In his memory, Yvette h

The atmosphere in the bar turned icy. Everyone exchanged uneasy glances, and their faces fell."Jordan, what's gotten into you? You've said yourself that you like Jade and can't stand Yvette. What's wrong with us making a few jokes about her?""Exactly! Weren't you the one who had those photos taken in the first place? What's with the sudden change of heart?"Everyone chimed in with questions.Then, someone suddenly asked, "Jordan, have you actually fallen for Yvette?"Yvette's pale face flashed through Jordan's mind. He remembered how she had looked when she stabbed herself with the knife. His expression darkened.He kicked the coffee table in front of him hard."Shut up! There's no way I'd ever fall for her! But she's still my wife, at least on paper. With her nude photos circulating, how will the Spencer family ever show its face in public again?"Everyone believed his explanation."Jordan's right. We should all watch our words from now on. No more jokes about her.""Fine.
