CEO's Reborn Wife

Chapter 1460: Chapter 1468: The Reason

Jane Sampson is not an ordinary person; she’s a superstar actor. Jane Sampson’s husband isn’t an ordinary person either—he’s a defender, someone bound by countless rules and regulations.

If Jillian Carter fails, in everyone’s eyes, she is nothing more than a petty clown, constantly bringing disgrace to the Carter Family.

If she succeeds, Jillian Carter becomes a mistress, equally tarnishing the Carter Family’s reputation.

James Carter sighed softly and retreated from the study where the two elders were. Standing downstairs, he glanced up at Jillian Carter’s room before leaving the village quietly in the dead of night, returning to the family home in the city district.

On the way back, James Carter sat in the car backseat, deep in thought.

He was thinking that Jane Sampson must have known Jillian Carter had feelings for her husband, which is why she constantly targeted her. Looking back, during that time, he had even told Jane Sampson that he hoped she wouldn’t take petty matters with Jillian Carter too seriously, saying that Jillian was a bit spoiled and immature.

Now, knowing the full story, James Carter felt that his actions back then had been reprehensible.

Yet all this time, Jane Sampson had never shown any resentment toward him. Whenever she saw him, she would still cheerfully call him ”Mr. Carter.”

She remained sincerely grateful for his insignificant help, thanking him repeatedly and wholeheartedly.

Looking back now, those thank-yous seemed ironic—he should have been the one saying thank you and apologizing.

James Carter composed a very long message on WhatsApp full of remorse and apologies, then sent it to Jane Sampson. When Jane Sampson received the message from James Carter, she was already at the Guard Team’s barracks. She had just gotten out of the bath and was lying on the bed playing with her mobile phone.

Seeing the message, Jane Sampson froze for a moment.

Afterward, her eyes lingered on the latest line James Carter had sent.

You knew Jillian had such intentions of targeting you because of your husband, didn’t you? Why didn’t you ever think to tell me? — Mr. Carter.

Jane Sampson stared blankly for a few seconds before replying with one sentence.

Mr. Carter, because Jillian Carter is your sister, your younger sister, and you cherish her dearly. — Mrs. Black.

After replying late, Jane Sampson exited WhatsApp and set her phone aside.

Why didn’t she tell James Carter?

Because she didn’t know how to say it.

If she said it, it would only embarrass him.

Alternatively, it might make Jane Sampson’s own position even more awkward, or perhaps even cost her the relationship with this mentor-turned-friend.

She had always cherished her friends.

Because she didn’t have many, she valued each one even more.

Although Jane has always stood firm without backing down, she had never considered exposing the truth and making James Carter lose face.

Having a sister who wants to be a third party and wreck someone else’s marriage is not a joyful fact, nor is it something anyone would proudly broadcast.

When James Black walked into the bedroom, he saw Jane Sampson lying on the bed, lost in thought. He walked over, glanced at Jane Sampson’s buzzing phone, and reminded her, ”Your phone has new messages.”

Only then did Jane Sampson sit up, reach out to grab her phone, and check. It was a WhatsApp message from Oscar Wilson.

Didn’t I tell you earlier today that Jillian Carter’s parents want to bring her back from the countryside? I just asked around and found out something new. Jillian Carter hasn’t been brought home yet, and Minister Carter has already gone home with his wife. — Poor youth Oscar Wilson.
