Chapter 522 [Bonus ] She Must Go Back



Day Sixty...

~~*****~~

Aiden and Nathan left the mountain resort at around 7:00 am. Their flight would be 8:00 am. Stephen sent them off to the airport. He was the one driving the car. Nathan was sitting in the back passenger seat while Aiden was in the front passenger seat.

"What did others say when they learned we were leaving today?" Aiden asked Stephen curiously. He wondered if Cherry even had a reaction.Updated from n0velbIn.(c)o/m

"They said nothing," Stephen replied.

Aiden crumpled his face, feeling a little bit disappointed. It seemed that no one cared about their presence.

"Sigh. So our presence doesn't matter to them." Aiden heaved a deep sigh.

On the other hand, Nathan had a different reaction. He was silent at the back and it seemed that his mind was wandering off somewhere.

He didn't want to admit it but Jane's confession had been bothering him since yesterday.

"Nate, are you okay? Just don't mind it and don't feel bad about it. Someday, there will be people who will appreciate us and see our

worth. We can move on." Aiden tried to cheer him up.

Stephen held his laughter. He didn't expect that those words would be coming out of Aiden's mouth. It was so unusual for him to say such encouraging words.

Nathan, on the other hand, just raised his eyebrow. "I don't need someone who would appreciate me."

He turned to the window, narrowing his eyes. Why did Jane appear in his mind at this moment? He should stop thinking about her. He was annoyed at himself.

After thirty minutes, they reached the airport. Stephen said goodbye to them. He didn't wait for their flight to leave because he needed to return to the mountain resort. Jane was already waiting for him for their first session.

When Stephen left, Aiden shared his concern with Nathan.

"Nate, I'm afraid Stephen will start pursuing Jane. He likes her. What are you going to do? What if Stephen and Jane become a couple? Will you give them your blessing? Your best friend falling in love with your enemy." Aiden asked him a hypothetical question. He wondered what Nathan would do. Since Jane was Abigail's sister, he doubted that Nathan would kill nor harm her.

"Will you forgive her?" Aiden added another question.

But those questions were left unanswered. Nathan just glared at him and turned around, proceeding to the flight check-in counter.

"Hey, Nate! Wait for me!" Aiden called him out. "Gosh! This man is grumpy again."

Nathan ignored Aiden's questions because he didn't know what he would do about it. And deep inside, he hated the idea of Stephen and Jane becoming a couple.

Back at the mountain resort, Jane was standing at Nathan's empty cabin. She reminisced about the intimate moment she had with Nathan in this cabin.

It was one wild night she won't forget. She experienced different emotions during that night– sadness, pain, longing, and joy. Despite those negative feelings, she didn't regret doing it with him.

'I'm going to unfold the truth, Nate. I'm going to win you back. You loved me once as Shining Star. Now, I will win you over as Jane.' Jane was so determined.

Thinking about Monica's deception, she couldn't help but feel the urgency of solving all these mysteries. And she would start by recovering her past memories.

While trying to recover her lost memories, Jane would continue catching the real culprits of Abigail's failed assassination attempt. Vincent became her target. Aside from Veronica, he was one of her primary suspects.

"Miss Jane, what are you doing here? Do you miss my dad already?" Ethan's voice snapped Jane out of her deep thoughts.

Jane looked down and smiled at him. "Yes, dear. I missed him already. Will it be okay if we go back to Country M tomorrow and end this vacation trip?" Jane consulted Ethan. She was running out of time so she had to start moving. Her targets were at Country M at this moment. She must return to Country M too.

"Yes. I'm fine with it, Miss Abi! Let's go back and follow my Dad," Ethan responded cheerfully. He would support her. He knew Jane had a mission she needed to accomplish.

"Thanks, Ethan, for your understanding." Jane caressed Ethan's cheeks. 'Ethan... I hope you will not hate me. For your sake, I won't hurt your mother. But I will have to unfold the truth and settle the score with her. She also has to pay for abandoning you and for deceiving your father.'
