Jane said, "You go have her take the medication first, I'll ask the front desk."
Zachary reached out and pulled Jane back. "Let's go together."
Jane shook her head. "We should split up. I'm afraid someone might destroy evidence."Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
In this matter, Zachary's first suspicion was Michael.
He wasn't as innocent as he seemed.
"You won't get much from asking now," he said.
Jane's expression turned somewhat grim.
Hours had passed since they fell asleep at dawn. If the other party had planned this, they indeed wouldn't let them find anything.
She followed Zachary back to the top floor of the hotel.
Watching him knock on Nina's door, she saw it open shortly after from the inside.
Nina peeked out, nervously looking at Zachary. "Zachary..."
A flicker of emotion crossed Zachary's dark eyes, but his face remained expressionless.
He handed her the medication.
*Nina saw the words on the box, lowered her eyes, suppressing the coldness in them.
With a pitiful tone, she asked, "Zachary, what does this mean?"
This matter hadn't been clarified yet. Even though Nina was his sister whom he had grown up with, years apart could change a person.
He couldn't avoid feeling a bit suspicious.
Zachary replied, neither warm nor cold, "Take it, it's for your own good."
Nina turned back, picked up a box of medicine, then looked up with tears in her eyes. "I've already taken it, Zachary. I heard that you shouldn't take too many contraceptive pills at once, it could bring harm one's health."
Jane couldn't help but speak up, "When did you buy it?"
It wasn't that she lacked sympathy, it was just that Nina's behavior in front of her didn't seem innocent at all.
But as soon as she asked, Nina started crying.
Tears rolled down her cheeks in large droplets, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"I know you will suspect me. Even if I defend myself, you won't completely believe me, so let's let the evidence speak and see what really happened. Zachary, I promised I wouldn't say anything, and I've already taken the medicine. If you don't believe me, I'll take the one you bought as well. If I end up with any health issues, it won't be your fault. You were just looking out for me. Not having kids is better than
getting pregnant out of wedlock."
As she spoke, she reached for the box in Zachary's hand, but he pulled it back.
"Just get some rest," he said.
Leaving that sentence behind, he took Jane and turned to enter the elevator.
Michael caught up. "Jane, have something to eat first."
He handed Jane a piece of toast and some milk, continuing, "After you're done, let's go eat something good. I found a restaurant with great reviews and local specialties." Jane was genuinely hungry, but Zachary didn't let her take the food.
"No need for that, I'll take her to get something to eat."
Michael hung his head. "Yes, of course, Mr. Collins can take Jane to more expensive places, but let her have something to eat first. If she keeps going hungry, she will have stomach problems." Zachary already looked down on Michael, and now his nonchalance only heightened Zachary's suspicions. "In the future, don't be so intimate when you say her name," said Zachary.
Michael complained to Jane, "Jane, he's so overbearing, he even wants to control how others address you."
Jane felt confused and didn't know how to mediate, so she reached out to tug at the hem of Zachary's shirt.
But Zachary held her hand, their fingers entwined.
He looked coldly at Michael. "Jane is now my girlfriend, you'd better have some boundaries, or don't blame me for being rude."
