Chapter 141.

A stock clerk pushed a shelf past us, interrupting our conversation. "Excuse me, just passing through."

I pulled Jane back a bit before asking, "What were you saying just now?"

"Isn't she your father-in-law's biological daughter?" Jane looked spirited.

I frowned. "I don't think so... She's two years older than Ryan."

If she were having an affair, it wouldn't be this early, would it?

"What's so implausible about it?" Jane dismissed my concern, excitedly sharing gossip about the wealthy. "In these wealthy families, it's messy. They have a wife at home and have several mistresses outside. Isn't that normal?"

"But..." I still felt something was off. "If Jessica really is his biological daughter, why wouldn't he tell Grandpa? Grandpa hates Jessica so much."

He would definitely treat his own granddaughter differently.

Jane thought about it and found it strange too. "You're right. If Jessica were really his daughter, wouldn't it be incestuous for him to let Ryan and Jessica be together like that?”

I nodded, not saying more. Jane suddenly spoke again, "Wait, something's not right. No matter how you think about it, it doesn't make sense."

"Stop thinking about it. It's none of our business anyway."

I poked her head and handed her a bag of crisps. "Here, your favorite tomato flavor."

Anyway, next month would come soon.

Once we got the divorce certificate, Ryan and I would be living in separate worlds from then on, not to mention my father-in-law and Jessica. Even if they were biological father and daughter, or even as Jane insulted, sleeping in the same bed, it had nothing to do with me.

Dinner was at a private restaurant, and Jane and I arrived first.

When Jack arrived, Jane glanced mockingly at his empty-handedness and said

nothing.

Seeing through her, I asked proactively, "Jack, didn't Tom come?"

Wherever Jane was, Tom always wanted to join in.

"He..."

Jack also knew about Tom's relationship with Jane, hesitated, and said, "He has something to attend to today."

But Jane knew exactly, "He's gone on a blind date. His family wants him to arrange a marriage."

I was momentarily stunned, feeling an indescribable helplessness, but it wasn't unexpected. I just didn't expect this day to come so soon.

Jane and his relationship had been doomed to no results from the beginning.

Just like me and Ryan, if it weren't for Grandpa, I wouldn't have been able to marry into a family like the Frost Group.

I didn't advise Jane in front of Jack either.

It was Jane who spoke first, "Charlotte, you participated in the design competition on behalf of F&A, and now you've won first place. But you've already resigned from the Frost Group. What about the joint collection?"

At her words, I froze and looked at Jack. "Yes, Jack, I've already resigned from the Frost Group..."

Jack cocked his brows. "Are you interested in joining the MS Group?"

"The MS Group?" I widened my eyes, hardly believing what I was hearing.

Most designers at MS had won international awards or had made a name for themselves.

I didn't think I had the qualifications yet. I hadn't dared to think about it.

Jack nodded with a smile. "I remember the MS Group was your dream brand in university."

"Jack, you have a great memory when it comes to Charlotte."

Jane was intrigued. "Is there anything she's said that you don't remember?"

I felt incredibly awkward, about to cover for her, but Jack calmly replied, "Not at the
