Mr. Westwood hurriedly pulled his wife’s arm. “What’s with you? Are you addicted to matchmaking? Tom is not like Jane. His marriage is no joke.”
Mrs. Westwood nodded repeatedly, “You’re right, with his status and position, even if it’s not a business marriage, he’d probably have to marry a girl from an affluent family, right?”
“Exactly, and Tom has high standards. Let’s not get involved.”
Jane, however, said, “Thank you, Mrs. Westwood. He… he has a girlfriend.”
Mr. and Mrs. Westwood were both surprised. “When did this happen? How come you never mentioned it?”
Jane gave a wry smile.
What could she say?
That her decision to go abroad was actually because of this ” girlfriend“?
No, now Hailey was no longer his girlfriend.

The day she boarded the plane, she had already married Tom.
Now, she should properly address him as “Mrs. Howard.”
“I’m all grown up now. He and I have our own lives and don’t interact much.”
This sentence carried an obvious sense of distance.
Mrs. Westwood seemed a bit worried. “Jane, does this mean you decided to come abroad because your brother’s girlfriend couldn’t accept you?”
“What are you saying?” Mr. Westwood quickly stopped her ‘Jane came abroad for better career development.”
Jane took a deep breath and nodded firmly. “Yes.”
Jane had just arrived and had not found a place to live yet, so she was temporarily staying at Mr. Westwood’s house.
Mrs. Westwood had already prepared a room for her.
Jane lay on the soft bed, looking at the moonlight outside the window.
Everything felt so strange, almost unreal.
Yes, she had decided to completely say goodbye to Tom and start a new life here from now on.
In the new house, everywhere was decorated with bright red wedding characters.
But Hailey didn’t dare say a word.
Jane had disappeared.
During the wedding, when Tom couldn’t find Jane anywhere, he immediately went out looking for her, leaving her standing alone in the center of the stage, surrounded by guests.
Hailey felt aggrieved. She had waited so long for him to come home.
She had hoped to act cute and cry in front of him, but Tom looked at her with disgust. “Stay away from me.”
Hailey gritted her teeth in hatred, wishing she could tear Jane apart!
She was doing this on purpose!
She had to cause trouble at her wedding just to ruin her and Tom’s marriage!
“Tom.” Hailey cautiously leaned over and nestled into his arms, “You’ve been busy all day. Let’s get some rest.”
As she spoke, she unbuttoned her jacket, revealing the pink lace underneath, silently inviting him..
But this move made Tom instantly furious. “I told you to stay away from me. Don’t you understand what I’m saying?”
He jerked his arm out of Hailey’s embrace, and Hailey was immediately frightened, her face turning pale.
“Tom, I know you’re anxious, but Jane is an adult. She’ll be fine.”
It was better not to mention Jane, but once her name was brought up, Tom’s entire demeanor turned icy.
At that moment, he received a phone call.
Tom answered, and from the other end of the line, someone said something that made Tom explode with anger. ”

If you can’t find her, keep looking! How could a grown person just disappear? If anything happens to Jane, you know the consequences.”
After hanging up, Tom’s face was still clouded with stormy anger.
Coincidentally, another phone call came in.
This time, Tom didn’t pick up right away. He stared at the number on the screen for a long while.
Hailey noticed that his expression seemed to carry a hint of panic.
Even his hand holding the phone began to tremble slightly
When he finally picked up, his voice was shaky. “Officer James, may I ask… have you found her?”
