Jane’s mind was occupied with thoughts of returning to the comfort of her own home and slipping into a fresh set of clothes before heading over to Drake’s place. However, her plans were swiftly derailed when Zac, bursting with enthusiasm, scampered over to her house. “Hi, lovely teacher! I’m here to find Zoe and Zane. By the way, if it’s not too much trouble, could you do me a favor and cover for me at home?” Zac’s innocent request escaped his lips, concealing the fact that it was, in fact, his father who planted the seed of temptation within him. Yet, deep down, Zac yearned to join the festivities all on his own accord!
Jane, caught off guard by Zac’s unexpected arrival, pondered for a moment before responding. “Alright then, you can play with Zoe and the gang for a little while. Meanwhile, I’ll go to the bathroom to freshen up and slip into some new clothes.”
After Jane emerged from the bathroom, she found herself in the living room, where Zane and Zac were joyfully engrossed in playing alongside little Zoe. Casting her gaze upon the heartwarming scene of the three youngsters getting along harmoniously, a wave of relief and joy washed over Jane. If only these kids were truly her own, she thought, it would be an absolute delight.
“Mummy, come quick! Brother Zac brought me this brand–new toy. It’s something Zoe has never seen before. Come join the fun!” Zoe exclaimed, her face beaming with a sweet smile that revealed her genuine excitement.
Jane settled down beside the trio, her legs crossed and engaged in a game with them. It wasn’t just any ordinary game, though; it was an educational one cleverly disguised as play. Through this interactive pastime, children could absorb a wealth of knowledge and uncover various forms of amusement.
Jane painted vivid pictures with her words, captivating the attention of the three little ones who were diligently studying her every move. Time slipped away effortlessly in such a sweet way until the sound of Jasper’s return interrupted their moment.
“Hey Jane, I’m back! And guess what? I’ve got this fancy steak all the way from overseas. I just got my hands on it today. I’m gonna whip up something special for you real soon. Remember how Zane loves his steak? Well, this one beats any local joint, hands down. It’s the absolute best,” Jasper exclaimed, his voice filled with excitement.
Jane caught sight of the bags in his hands, big and small, and immediately rose to help him carry them. Together, they made their way into the kitchen, setting the bags down.
Zane observed Jasper’s retreating figure with a sly grin.
Ha, using him as an excuse to butter up his mommy again!
“That guy, what’s with the infatuation over that attractive teacher?”
Who does he think he is? No one dares to challenge him for the attention of this gorgeous teacher! Zac thought angrily.
“Can’t you see? He’s got a crush on my mom,” Zane retorted.
“No way!” Zac immediately jumped to his feet, wearing a disapproving expression.
“Of course, I know it’s impossible. Don’t worry, my mom isn’t interested in him,” Zane

replied nonchalantly.
If Zane hadn’t made sure his mother saw Jasper only as a friend, he wouldn’t have been able to keep Jasper so close to her.
After dinner, Drake arrived to pick up Zac. Since he hadn’t gone upstairs, he had no idea about the joint meal. Zac, following Zane’s advice, kept it brief when Drake inquired about Jasper.
Upon learning that Jane and Jasper were just friends, Drake felt a slight wave of relief wash over him.
The following day, being a weekend, Jane indulged in the luxury of sleeping in, while Jasper took the two children to the amusement park as they had previously agreed over dinner the night before.
As the day progressed, Jane’s peaceful sleep was rudely interrupted by the intrusive ring of the telephone. Still groggy, she fumbled for the receiver and managed to mumble a
response.
But when April relayed the test results, Jane jolted upright in bed, her senses instantly ~kened by the shocking news.
“Hey, Jane, are you even listening?” April’s voice broke through the haze, finally stirring the still–stunned Jane.
“April, are you serious? Are you telling me that those three children are mine?”
“Do you think I’d joke about something like this? Honestly, you’ve been oblivious for far too long. You’ve spent years with Zane and Zoe without even considering a paternity test. And to top it off, you and Zane share such uncanny resemblances.”
Jane was overwhelmed, a mix of shock and tears of joy streaming down her face.
“You’re right, April. It’s all my fault. I blindly believed Annie’s words. I should have known that they were my children.”
“Alright, it’s not too late to know the truth now.” April’s soft words offered comfort.
April had witnessed Jane’s struggles living abroad, and he knew that discovering the truth was the ultimate reward for her.
After hanging up with April, Jane couldn’t contain the bubbling excitement in her heart. Without wasting a moment, she slipped into a pair of sleek sports tights and made her way to a motorcycle dealership.
Donning her safety helmet, she hopped onto her motorcycle and revved the engine. With a burst of speed and an infusion of passion, she set off on her exhilarating journey. The wind whipped through her hair, and the rush of adrenaline washed away any lingering worries.
But suddenly, amidst the whirlwind of the road, a mysterious black motorcycle zoomed past, catching up to Jane in an instant. Both riders locked eyes, their faces concealed by their helmets.
Eventually, the motorcycles came to a halt, and Jane glanced back at the rider who had crossed the finish line just seconds behind her. A wave of joy washed over her as she

reveled in her victory.
Leaving the scene with a beaming smile, she returned the motorcycle and headed home. As she arrived, she found Zoe and Zane already back from their adventure at the amusement park, their faces adorned with joyful grins.
Jane rushed over and enveloped her children in a tight embrace, so overwhelmed with excitement that tears streamed down her cheeks.
“Oh, my little ones, you have no idea how incredible you all are…”
“Mummy, what are you talking about? Zane and I have always been your children…”
Zoe’s perplexed expression peeked out from Jane’s arms. Her wide eyes shimmered with curiosity.
“Yes, you and your brother have always been and will always be Mummy’s precious
children.”
With the truth finally sinking in, Jane savored the elation for a while before regaining her
composure.
Previously, she had thought that she was merely going to teach Drake and Annie a lesson, but she ended up divorcing Drake successfully. Now, the world was hers for the taking, and she was more than ready to embrace it!
Arriving at the Warner Family Mansion, Jane rang the doorbell, only to be greeted not by Miss Lea, but by a striking young woman.
“Who are you? Do you know what place is this? How did you get here?”
The sharpness in the stranger’s questioning dampened Jane’s good mood slightly, but she maintained her polite demeanor.
“You don’t recognize me? Are you new here?”
“Should I know who you are? Judging by your appearance, you don’t seem like a decent person. Let me make it clear, even though this family lacks a mistress, don’t you dare think about becoming one. President Warner despises your flashy demeanor. You’re nothing but
a common woman.”
The other woman’s arrogance and contemptuous words ignited a fiery anger within Jane. She chuckled with a mix of fury and amusement.
“It’s true that your boss may not be fond of me, but…he practically begged me to step foot in this house. Don’t believe me? Ask him yourself.”
”
“What nonsense are you spouting? How could President Warner beg you?”
–“Kristy, enough!” At that moment, Miss Lea emerged from behind Jane, putting an end to
the confrontation.
