Chapter 806 Everything Will Be Fine
Day Eighty-Four…
~~*****~~
Jane shifted her gaze back and forth between Vincent and Nathan. She felt conflicted for a moment as she understood the meaning of Vincent's gesture. He wanted her to prove to him that she was serious about choosing him over Nathan.
"Jane, can we please talk for a moment?" Nathan softly asked her.
The elders just observed them silently, waiting for Jane's decision.
"Fine. Let's talk. But Vincent will be coming with us."
Vincent smirked the moment he heard that. On the other hand, Nathan felt disappointed. "I wish to talk to you. Alone," Nathan mumbled firmly, his eyes not leaving her face.
Mr. Hiroshi and Old Master Yan could feel the heavy tension in the air.
"Then I won't talk to you," Jane responded with finality in her voice. She lowered her gaze since she couldn't look straight into Nathan's eyes.
She had the urge to hug him and ease his pain. But she couldn't do it right now. She felt sorry for hurting Nathan's feelings.
'I'm sorry, Nate. I have to do this. I will make it up to you once I'm done with my plan.' Jane thought to herself.
"You heard her. I'm Jane's fiancé. So I have the right to know what you will tell her. Her personal matter is also mine starting today." Vincent sternly said, giving Nathan a mocking look.
Nathan shot Vincent a cold sharp glare. If not for the presence of Mr. Hiroshi and Old Master Yan, he should have punched Vincent already. This half-brother of his didn't get tired of scheming, taking everything away from him… including Jane.
"Alright. Let's go outside." Nathan finally agreed.
Jane glanced at her father. "Pa, I'll leave Mia in your care for now."
Mr. Hiroshi nodded. "Okay. Go ahead. Discuss what you need to discuss with them." On the balcony.
Natha stood face to face with Vincent and Jane.
"Now, talk," Vincent commanded Nathan with a provocative smirk.
Nathan clenched his fists, trying to control his anger. He decided to ignore Vincent, shifting his gaze back to Jane.
"Jane… come with me. You don't have to obey this guy just because of his threat. I'll protect Mia and you." Nathan extended his right hand toward Jane, urging her to go to his side.
"I surrounded this place with my men. Vincent won't be able to touch you and Mia, including your family," Nathan added, reassuring Jane.
Vincent's expression darkened upon hearing that. He wasn't surprised. Nathan wouldn't go there unprepared. But the question was… who told Nathan that they would be visiting the Yan Family today? Was it Mr. Hiroshi?
"Are you sure about that, Nate? I also have my men surrounding this mansion. If you make a bad mood, there will be a bloodbath here. I won't let you take away Jane and my daughter." Vincent spat back at him.
"There is no need for that!" Jane intervened, rubbing the space in between her eyebrows.
"Stop fighting over me. I've made my decision already." Jane raised her head as she glanced at Nathan.
"Nate…" she stepped forward.
Vincent crumpled his face, wanting to stop Jane. But then…
"I think this is the right time for me to say goodbye. I can't be with you anymore. I'm choosing Vincent and Mia. I hope you understand."
Nathan froze in his spot, his heart being pierced by a thousand knives. Meanwhile, Vincent's eyes sparkled in delight, rejoicing inwardly. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Without waiting for Nathan to say a word, Jane closed their gaps, hugging him tightly. She couldn't keep her indifference. Her heart was also in pain seeing Nathan's sadness. She knew that her words broke his heart today. All she could do was give him a comforting hug.
"I hope someday you can find happiness, Nate. I might not be the one for you… but I truly wish you could find someone who can become Ethan's mother. Someone who will love you both unconditionally… as one family."
Jane rubbed his back. She could feel that Nathan's body became rigid and tense. He was overwhelmed by her words of goodbye.
This time Nathan shook his head and tears started to fall from the corners of his eyes.
"Jane. Don't do this. I can't give you up. How can I do that? You are my life…" His voice choked, sadness and despair evident in his tone. He held her body tight, not wanting to let go.
"I'm sorry, Nate. This is the end of our journey together. Maybe we are not really meant to be." After saying that, Jane broke the hug as she returned to Vincent's side.
"You and Vincent are brothers. You should reconcile with each other, instead of fighting over a girl." Since she couldn't bear to see Nathan in tears, Jane turned around to leave. She strode toward the mansion without looking back.
Nathan just stood there in his spot, tears running down his face. He watched Jane's back as she drifted away from his sight. That's the end. He couldn't have her. They would no longer be together.
Meanwhile, Vincent approached Nathan, holding his shoulder. "Bro, I won. You are totally defeated. So to compensate you for your loss… I'm giving back the company to you. You can have it back. I'm not interested in it anymore. Jane and Mia are more than enough for me. Starting today, I will no longer bother you and your father. You can both live happily."
"Good luck, Bro. Send my regards to our father." Vincent left the balcony, leaving Nathan with a shattered heart. He didn't know how long he had stayed there. When everything sunk in his mind, Nathan dropped to his knees, punching the ground several times. He wanted to scream! He wanted to cry! He wanted to disappear!
It did not take long when a small figure showed up on the balcony, running to his side.
"Dad!" Ethan called his father with a concerned look on his face.
Nathan stopped punching the ground as he held his son. "Son… I… lost her. Your Mommy Jane… She won't be coming back to us. I'm sorry. I failed you."
But Ethan just gave him a reassuring smile, gently patting his head. "Don't be sad, Dad. Everything will be fine. Have faith. And be strong." The young boy engulfed his father in a warm embrace, comforting him.
