Chapter 692 I Trust You, Honey

Day Seventy-Four...

"Mom, since I promise that I will not keep another secret from you, there is something more you need to know." Ethan tugged Jane's hand as he gazed up. His innocent eyes were sparkling with hope.

Jane kneeled in front of him and held his shoulders. "Tell me, my angel. I would appreciate it." She caressed his cheek using her thumb while looking at him dotingly.

"I am the anonymous sender. I was the one who sent you the recordings. I planted a spying device on that woman's cell phone that's why I overheard her conversation with Dr. Veronica." Ethan confided with Jane. He could no longer call Monica his mother. He refused to accept his maternal connection with Monica since he could see her evil side.

Meanwhile, Jane was taken aback for a moment. She was surprised to know that the important information they received came from Ethan. This boy was an incredible kid.

"Mom? Are you mad?" Ethan asked her anxiously. He got worried since Jane remained silent.

"No, Baby. I'm not mad. I just didn't expect that you would do something like that," Jane admitted.

"I did it because... I couldn't trust their words. I always have doubts in my heart. I couldn't feel at ease... so I decided to spy on them secretly." Ethan lowered his head as he bit his lips.

"Honestly, Mom... I feel ashamed. I feel like I can't face you. That evil woman... is my mother. And she is targeting you... and Aunt Abigail. I'm truly sorry." the young boy couldn't look straight into her eyes.

But Jane lifted his chin so that she could meet his gaze. "Don't apologize, my baby. This is not your fault. And don't feel ashamed. Her evilness has nothing to do with you. Just continue being our sweet and loving baby. Don't mind her." Jane wanted to cheer him up. Her heart was aching to see Ethan blaming himself for Monica's wrongdoings.

'This is unfair. Ethan is innocent. He shouldn't feel guilty or shoulder the heaviness of Monica's evil actions.' Jane was enraged just thinking about Monica. She was a bad influence on Ethan's mental health. The young boy was suffering emotionally because of Monica. He didn't deserve it.

After a while, Jane pulled the boy into a warm hug. She was still trying to comfort the child when Nathan entered the room. "Can I join you guys?" Nathan's voice was heard from the door. Both Jane and Ethan turned in his direction. Nathan was leaning his back on the door frame while smiling tenderly at them.

He felt glad to observe this heartwarming scene. To think about it, his son doted on Jane more. His son loved her so much and he was fond of her even though they were not blood-related.

Jane didn't hide her anger. "It was Monica's doing. She and Vincent planted lies and doubts in Ethan's young mind. They told him that you were not his biological father and Monica introduced herself as his biological mother. They were confusing the kid. I want to beat them for involving and using Ethan for their schemes." Jane burst out, her inside boiling with rage.

Nathan shared the same feelings with Jane when he heard that. He could no longer tolerate this. "I must file a restraining order against that woman so that she can no longer approach my son."

"Easy, Nate. We should use a different approach. Those two are wiser than what we expected. They charged you for the assault. They know how to play safe and take advantage of every situation." Jane pulled his hand, letting him sit next to her.

"So what's your plan?" Nathan asked her, feeling intrigued. "What kind of approach are you referring to?" his eyes gleamed with excitement as he could see the mischievous yet evil smile on her lovely face.

"The thing I'm good at... threatening people until they cower in fear... and killing them slowly but surely," Jane responded with an evil smirk, winking at Nathan.

Nathan reached out, wrapping his arm around her waist. He pulled her closer to him. "Please expand. I want to hear everything. Don't leave any details." There was a hint of excitement in his eyes as he looked at her expectantly.

Jane leaned closer and whispered to him. Meanwhile, Nathan's eyes gleamed in amusement as he listened to her.

"Do you think this will work?" Nathan was uncertain.

Jane just smiled meaningfully and replied, "Just leave it to me, Nate. I'll make sure to get even at them."

Nathan heaved a sigh of defeat. "Okay. Just tell me if you need me. I'm going to assist you."

Jane let out a soft giggle as she tapped the tip of Nathan's nose. "Just stay put, Mr. Sparks. I can handle this." Jane reassured him.

"Fine. But promise me that you will be more careful when dealing with them. Don't hesitate to call me if you need my help. I'll cooperate with you."

Jane bobbed her head. "Thank you. I know what to do. Just put your trust in me."

"I trust you." Nathan promptly responded. "Honey..."

Jane's heart skipped a beat and she swooned upon hearing that sweet endearment.
