After hanging up. April stepped forward and spoke, “Honey, I won’t be going with you. I have to get another ticket to go somewhere else.”
“You’re not going back with me?” Jane looked back at him, surprised
“Well, I can’t. We tricked Matthew into escaping, he won’t just give up. He will surely come trouble you. If I go with you, you will be in danger I must get a ticket and go somewhere where he can’t find me Listening to April’s narration, Jane paused and thought
“Why don’t you stay at Silverbourne? The most dangerous place is where it’s safest Matthew will definitely not even think that you’re with me,” she suggested
“Will that work?” April wavered
“I have experience. It’s much safer for you to stay. I’ll help you change your whole identity I can guarantee Matthew won’t recognize you, Jane claimed
He hesitated for a slight moment before accepting Jane’s suggestion.
The two used his card to buy another ticket and finally returned
Jane placed April into the apartment she stayed at before and used her own disguise to hide April’s gorgeous features. She then went back to Maplewood Mansion with calmness in her heart
It was still very early in the morning, so she quietly discussed Zane’s situation with Zachary She learned that Zane indeed sounded relaxed when he called, and it did not seem that he was
intimidated at all
Once Drake was home, Jane told her about Zane’s call, hoping to ask him to trace the number
Before she was about to do just that, Drake looked at her with an unreadable expression. You took April Middiam” He spoke softly
Jane was startled, staring at him cautiously. “Why are you asking that all of a sudden?
Jane didn’t answer his question, but he could already tell
“You shouldn’t meddle in their affairs.” Drake spoke helplessly
Jane started to get annoyed and glared at him April is my good friend. Should I just stand by and
watch him suffer?
“You men are all the same, arrogant and presumptuous. You only care about your opinion, and you don’t care what others think if you can’t get what you want you resort to violent methods. Threata intimidation, confinement. You can’t think from our own perspective. Do we really want this kind of life? Jane was not only talking about Matthew and April’s situation, but also the grievances she suffered when she was with Drake
If he had not forced. Zane would not have been sent to such a dangerous place. Now, she did not know where he was
Drake, who felt like he had been hit, was now rendered speechless and did not dare bring up Matthew Hughes
“Don’t get mad, I didn’t mean it. I promise I won’t ask that agan Drake raised his arms to show has
innocence

Forget it. Brothers also hold a big deal, but offend the child’s mother and the consequences will be much worse.
Seeing that Drake was quick to admit his mistake, Jane calmed down.
“Hmph. I did take April. But you tell Matthew that I have no idea where he is. If he’s capable enough, he can find April himself.”
With a light scoff, Jane headed back to her room.
Drake did not tell Matthew. He could only follow what Jane told him. Of course Matthew would not believe it, but now he had no choice other than finding April by himself.
At nightfall, Drake walked slowly into Jane’s room. She just took a shower and was sat on the bed, working on her studio’s sketches.
He walked in and sat near Jane, eyes burning straight at her.
“Baby, it’s late at night. Time to rest.” This is the first time Drake has ever called her with such a doting name. Her heart wavered, but she kept her face straight and continued to work.
Seeing that Jane was unmoved, he continued to woo her. “Baby, I was wrong. Don’t be angry, okay?”
Jane was stunned that he was still capable of doting on her like this. She was not mad anymore but she did not want to forgive him so easily, so she kept to herself.
“You said you were wrong, then tell me where exactly you went wrong.”
Drake was taken aback. As a very straightforward man, he did not know where he was wrong.
However for the sake of sleeping with the beauty in his arms, he racked his brains and stated a few mistakes of his own.
“I shouldn’t have been arrogant, I should have considered your opinions, I shouldn’t make wild guesses about your best friend, I should have looked at things in women’s perspective and thought of them.”
Drake could only think so much, careful with his words in fear that Jane would be satisfied.
Jane had never seen such a look from his face. The anger in her heart fully dissipated, leaving her laughing.
Why should they be fighting? He was born a proud son surrounded by what he could even wish for, and he has gone through hardships no ordinary person had experienced before. His mindset was different from ordinary people, and it was truly rare to hear apologetic words from him.
Jane stopped antagonizing him and instead opened up to him about Zane.
“Zane called back earlier. He tried calling me, but I did not answer. He called Zachary though, saying that he is not in any danger and is with a man. Let’s not worry, he will try to escape.”
Hearing the news, Drake shot up quickly.
“Whose phone did he call from?”
“I don’t know, I wanted to ask you to track the number earlier. Who knew you’d ask me about April as soon as you came home?” Jane could not help but give him a dry look.
Drake felt a little embarrassed.

“Tasked Zachary, but Zane didn’t say anything else. Probably because he had no time, but he hung up
without saying anything else. I was thinking though, who could be the man that he’s talking about?”
Drake was also lost in thought.
At that moment, Zane, who was also thinking of them, was dragged to a game – it was some brain–intensive game from abroad.
Zane was very immersed but still lost in the end.
