Chapter 150
CHAPTER 150
The next morning.
Jane woke up in a good mood almost like a dog with two tails. “I had all these sweet dreams of being with Benjamin. Too bad I
didn’t get to kiss him well because of his mustache. If I get another opportunity again, I won’t miss it. I will make sure he will fall
for me, hehe.”
She prepared coffee and walked out of her room, whistling to herself, only to see Donovan and Jasmine kissing by the stairs.
She was stunned for a second, but then her eyes gained blood pretty fast. “What the hell are you doing in a public place?” she
howled and splashed the hot coffee in their faces.
“Kya!” Jasmine screamed in pain, but Donovan bore it.
“This is my apartment, so if I see this again, I’ll kick you out,” she warned Jasmine.
Both Jasmine and Donovan went into their room.
“Why didn’t you beat her?” Jasmine yelled at him. “Just one slap would have been enough for that bitch.”
“This is her apartment, so let’s not unnecessarily complicate things.” “Unnecessarily? She splashed coffee in my face!” Donovan
smiled and leaned toward her. “Let me take care of it.” He licked the coffee off her cheek
“Stop,” Jasmine resisted, but he effortlessly lifted her up and pushed her against the wall and kept doing whatever he wanted to
her face with his tongue, bringing her into the mood pretty fast.
Meanwhile, Jane came downstairs to give coffee to her grandmother. “Like a pig in mud, they really suit each other,” he thought
of Donovan and Jasmine, with the former being the pig.” Mm?”
To her surprise, Steve was talking to her. She frowned a little as old memories came to her mind. Her grandmother’s shop used
to be there in front of the apartment when she still had enough energy to work. Steve was a regular customer of the shop; and he
usually bought cigarettes and chocolates. During one of his visits, he saw Jane and fell in love with her. Even though she was
still a juvenile back then, he waited until she became a major before approaching her. And then they spent one night together,
but that was all. Even though she repeatedly told him to give up on her, he didn’t. And the fact that he still didn’t marry sort of
made Jane feel guilty. She went back upstairs and prepared another coffee, then came down and offered the drink to both her
grandmother and Steve.
He was more than happy to receive coffee from Jane’s hand. He couldn’t hide his joy. Was she treating him well because she
had broken up with Donovan? What other reason could there be?
“I already have a boyfriend, so don’t get your hopes up,” Jane expressed. “W-What?” Steve exclaimed. “Already?” He knew Jane
quickly changed boyfriends, but this was way too quick. “Who, who is it?” “Do you remember the guy who knocked Donovan out
during his birthday party?” she
sounded somewhat proud.
Steve’s eyes turned round as the moon. “T-That guy?” His heart violently beat against his chest. “He...” Wasn’t it Benjamin who
had warned him about Donovan? He thought Benjamin was helping, but it turned out that he was actually being used. Now that
Donovan was out of picture, Benjamin used that chance to jump into being Jane’s new boyfriend. Steve got so angry, he wanted
to smash the coffee cup to the ground, but he controlled himself and put the cup down before jogging away.
At the Sterling villa.
Lisa was swimming for one last time in the pool. Roshan was sitting on the side, looking like he really hated his life. After all,
Shawn had taken his mobile from him and told him to focus on his studies. Without a mobile in hand, the entire world felt boring
to him. “Lisa! How long are you going to swim?” Elizabeth came over and shouted at her daughter.” Go to your room and pack
your luggage!”
However, Lisa still kept swimming.
Elizabeth looked at her son. “Roshan, at least you go and pack the luggage. We are moving to our new house before the sun
goes down.” “I’m not coming.”
“What?”
“To our new house... I’m not coming,” Roshan didn’t look into his mother’s eyes. “I will stay with Grandma.” “Huh? What are you
talking about?” Elizabeth gritted her teeth. “Is it because your dad took your mobile away?” Roshan was silent, but stress marks
played on his chin. “Why aren’t you saying anything?” she demanded an answer, but then he stood at once and walked into the
villa, ignoring her words.
Elizabeth looked bewildered.
“Why are you so shocked?” Dorothy entered the scene. “He may love you, but he always listened to your mother-in-law, and
now, who has more money? You, or your husband? or Selena?”
“M-My son isn’t like that,” Elizabeth didn’t believe it. “He’s smarter than you think, my silly daughter,” Dorothy said and sighed. “If
I were you, I’d focus more on what I have than what I lost.”
Her mother’s words made her look toward Lisa. She hoped at least Lisa would come and live with her. She slowly went over to
her daughter and said, “Lisa, I’ll pack your luggage, so take your time swimming.”
Lisa stopped swimming and got out of the pool.
Rails ran in Elizabeth’s heart. “W-Where are you going, Lisa?”
Lisa turned around and cast an annoyed gaze, “You are moving your whole wardrobe to your new house, so I’m sure you’re not
going to miss me all that much.” Saying that she rushed
into the villa with an angry look on her face.
Rebecca was watching all this from the balcony, and Elizabeth really wanted to hide her face somewhere. Her mind and heart
felt numb right now. Her eyes glistened with tears, and she didn’t know what to do. She felt awful even though her mother tried to
console her.
“They grew up in this villa, so they chose their grandmother’s side,” Dorothy grunted. “But they’re still too young to know what
they’re doing. Don’t take their words to heart.”
Despite Dorothy’s efforts, a gloom still came over Elizabeth, and she whimpered.
“If only we didn’t lose most of our money to pay off debts,” Dorothy’s voice turned bitter,” we wouldn’t be depending on the
Sterlings like this.”
Rebecca didn’t like Elizabeth, but even she couldn’t help but feel pity for her sister-in-law. She wanted to talk to the kids, but then
she thought it would be more effective if Selena were to speak to them. “I should tell mom to send them to their mother.”
However, she had no idea that things weren’t going to be that easy.
Just then, Amber brought a bouquet to Rebecca, and her gaze was filled with hatred very fast. The message ‘Yours Donovan’
was tagged on it. She tossed the bouquet down and stomped on it a few times before taking a deep breath. This wasn’t the first
gift he sent after she had given him a warning to not bother her. “He’s trying so hard to make me fall for him. I can’t believe Jane
dated such a scumbag” Thinking about Jane, she felt downcast. “I should talk to her, but she isn’t picking up my calls.” She
pondered for a while and got an idea. “Should I make Benjamin call her and ask her to come to some restaurant?” She felt
excited. “Yeah. That might work.”
