When Beck Moore was around, Jane Gardner was able to hold herself together to keep from crying out in aggravation.
But once he left, she heard him lock the door outside, and all her strength disappeared instantly.
She and Beck Moore had come to this point after all.
They, probably, were no longer friends.
“Where’s my brother? Why is his room locked?” The next morning, Jelly Moore came outside Beck Moore’s room. She fiddled with the lock a few times without opening the door and turned her head toward the maid downstairs and shouted.
“Master Moore ordered last night, from today, no one can enter his room, Miss Gardner’s three meals a day, only I can bring her from the window, Miss, if you are looking for Master, call him, he is not at home now.”
“Heh! What do you mean by not letting her go and locking her in the house? Is my brother still afraid that she will leave? You, get me the keys right now, I’m opening the door!” Jelly Moore had made a deal with Coco Jackson last night that if she got Jane Gardner out of the house, Coco Jackson would give her a bag she hadn’t gotten for a long time.
Now, how else could she evict Jane Gardner if she was locked in her room!
“I’m sorry, Miss, the young master took the key with him last night and, on purpose, he instructed me to tell you that if you unlock the door, your allowance for the next year will be deducted.”
As soon as Jelly Moore heard that money would be deducted, she instantly dared not make a scene.
She knew very well that although Beck Moore was not currently in the family business, the entire home, the entire business, was his.
She couldn’t offend Beck Moore if she wanted to have enough pocket money.
“Humph! I really don’t know what’s so great about this old woman Jane Gardner! My brother must be crazy to like her!” Jelly Moore bristled as she headed downstairs.
Jane Gardner was in her room, taking in everything that was happening outside the door.
She sat on the floor, looking out the window at the sunlight coming in, envious of those who were free and carefree.
She had lightened up now after a night of thinking last night.
Only, she thought that Zachary Irwin was still waiting for her to be Alice Cox’s assistant, and if she couldn’t go, he would probably brainstorm a bunch of things against her again.
She felt she had really done it to herself.
If she had decisively refused Beck Moore at the beginning and not asked him for help, maybe he wouldn’t have turned out the way he did today.
So Jane Gardner was in her room all day, and she didn’t take a step outside.
When Beck Moore returned at dinner time, he opened the door to his room and saw that Jane Gardner had eaten all three meals on time, and his furrowed brow lifted.
“Are you bored out of your mind? Let me take you down for a walk.” Beck Moore squatted in front of Jane Gardner, his voice still the same, but his tone, his eyes, were not what they used to be.
“…” Jane Gardner didn’t say anything, but she did as he said and walked out of the room.
Elena Gonzalez saw Jane Gardner come down, her face went cold and she turned her head to Jelly Moore, “Jelly, didn’t you say that Kole was coming over tonight too? Why isn’t she here yet?”
Jelly Moore looked confused, when did she tell Elena Gonzalez that Coco Jackson was coming to dinner tonight?
However, she saw Jane Gardner being helped down by Beck Moore, she instantly understood, “Yes, I’ll go ask Coco.”
Jelly Moore looked askance at Jane Gardner who was sitting in her seat, she dialed Coco Jackson and told her to come to Moore’s house as fast as possible.
When Coco Jackson heard Jelly Moore’s words, she didn’t even have time to put on her makeup, grabbing her make-up bag and making up while she was on her way.
“Jane, try this dish, and this soup, they’re both delicious.” Beck Moore could sense the delicate atmosphere at the table, and he didn’t care, just concentrated on serving Jane Gardner’s food.
“Beck, yesterday you came back late, your father and I did not tell you our latest decision, we have discussed, since the big star Lin does not see our Moore family, does not see you, we better not force her.
As for your child, while the months are still young, also beat it! There are plenty of first marriage women who want to give birth to your child, let’s respect Miss Lin, no marriage, no child.” Elena Gonzalez is very nice and calm, but her mouth is full of sarcasm about Jane Gardner.
“What if I go into Moore Enterprises?” Beck Moore understood Elena Gonzalez’s words, and his face was light.
“…” Elena Gonzalez froze, figuring out what Beck Moore’s words meant, she stood up at once and brushed the dishes off the table, “Beck Moore! Are you bargaining with me now?
You’ve refused to take over your own business after all the years we’ve talked you into it, and now you’re changing your mind over Jane Gardner! Is she more important to you than your father and me?”
Elena Gonzalez was really angry with Beck Moore this time. She thought that Beck Moore had insisted on not going over for years because he genuinely did not like it and did not want to.
But now it seems that it was her and Kevin Moore’s words that didn’t carry any weight!
She held Beck Moore to her heart and Beck Moore was dead set on Jane Gardner, a feeling that would make anyone who is a mother uncomfortable.
Not to mention the fact that the Jane Gardner he held in the palm of his hand was someone she couldn’t see!
“I’m not asking you to take her in right away, you can think about it for a few days.” Beck Moore tightened his lips, he knew his actions had hurt Elena Gonzalez, but for Jane Gardner, he would make enemies with the world.
“Uncle, Auntie, I’m sorry I’m late.” Just when the two sides were at a standstill, Coco Jackson appeared at Moore’s door in a pink sarong.
She had a delicate voice, sweet looks, and most importantly, she was first married, with no negative news and a much cleaner and simpler family.
Elena Gonzalez glared hard at Beck Moore as she walked towards Coco Jackson, “Coco, it’s all family, don’t be polite, come and sit next to your aunt.”
Coco Jackson knew that Elena Gonzalez had always been nonchalant towards herself, she didn’t understand why she had suddenly changed her attitude, but it was a change that she gladly accepted.
“Okay, Auntie.” Coco Jackson sat down beside Elena Gonzalez as she watched Beck Moore thoughtfully peel the shrimp for Jane Gardner, her fingers digging into her palm.
One day, she was going to make Beck Moore feel better about it.
“Beck, what you just mentioned, your father and I will think about it for a few days. But today, after dinner, you take Kol home, it’s not safe for her to go back at night as a girl.” Elena Gonzalez also saw Beck Moore peeling shrimp for Jane Gardner, and her eyes sank.
Wary.
Beck Moore was going to refuse, but he wanted to see if Jane Gardner would be jealous, and he nodded his head in agreement.
The meal was tasteless for everyone except Shan York, Snowly Gardner and Jelly Moore.
After dinner, Beck Moore locks Jane Gardner in her room and goes downstairs to see Coco Jackson off.
When Jane Gardner returned to her room, she watched her phone light up and opened it to see a tweet from Zachary Irwin.
Jane Gardner knew that no matter how she explained, Zachary Irwin would not believe or understand, so she simply did not reply a word.
She also wanted to leave, but she couldn’t leave!
On Zachary Irwin’s side, he looked at his phone and stared at it until 23:00, but he still didn’t hear back from Jane Gardner.
He picked up his jacket and went out to find Jane Gardner, but he saw Beck Moore walking towards his house.
Zachary Irwin knew Beck Moore was up to no good, and he waited for him with a curled lip.
“Are you looking for Alice Cox or Jane Gardner, if it’s Jane Gardner, I think President Irwin should stay out of the house because she’s in my room, in my bed right now!” Beck Moore provocatively confronted Zachary Irwin.
After dropping Coco Jackson off, he was ready to go home when he saw Zachary Irwin and felt a sense of triumph at the thought of Jane Gardner being in his room right now.
He had been on the weak side in front of Zachary Irwin, and suddenly his identity had changed, and I have to say, it was a great feeling!
