100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 814  Vincent's Lies?

Day Eighty-Seven…

~~*****~~

Jane went out together with Mia for her wedding dress fitting. Vincent didn't accompany them because he had an important appointment. On behalf of him, Phoenix escorted Jane to the Wedding Dress Shop. They also brought several bodyguards.

Jane was silent during the journey. Her mind was preoccupied with so many things. In two days, she would be marrying Vincent, however, until now, she didn't get any clue about Monica's whereabouts.

'Sigh. I wonder if she saw the news article about our marriage. She should have been making some moves by now.' Jane thought to herself, looking through the car windows.

'She hides pretty well. Tatsumi, Hanabi, and Black Rose are having a hard time tracking her down.'

Jane was lost in her thoughts when Mia held her hand.

"Mommy, are you nervous? What are you thinking?" Mia's voice snapped Jane back to the present.

She gave her a faint smile and replied, "Oh, I'm not. I'm just tired because of the wedding preparations."

Mia nodded, believing her words. "Don't worry, Mommy. Everything is all set. Dad is very excited. He managed to prepare all the things you needed for this wedding." Mia's excited voice echoed inside the car.

"Yeah. I know."

Jane was somehow feeling conflicted right now. For the past few days, she saw how Vincent actively took care of everything. He completely forgot about his revenge and he was just so focused on the wedding preparations.

Vincent became true to his words. He no longer bothered Nathan and the Sparks Family. Jane also heard the news from Cherry that Old Man Xu had recovered and returned home already. 'Is he really obsessed with me just because he wants to take away everything important from Nathan?' She mused to herself.

"Lady Jane, we've arrived," Phoenix informed her as he parked the car in front of the shop's entrance.

Jane just nodded. The other bodyguards opened the car door for Mia and Jane. The two stepped out of the car and entered the shop.

"Welcome, Lady Jane." The staff immediately greeted her with a polite smile. She gestured to Jane and Mia to follow her.

The mother and daughter duo obediently headed inside the VIP room wherein her chosen wedding dress was being displayed.

Mia gasped in admiration upon seeing the white wedding dress.

"Wow. Mommy, it looks beautiful. You will be the most beautiful bride once you wear this! I can't wait to see you in this dress." Mia tugged Jane's hand excitedly.

Jane could only smile upon seeing Mia's reaction. Unfortunately, she wasn't happy at all. She didn't care about being the most beautiful bride. Only if Nathan would be her groom then she would be the happiest bride on earth. Being beautiful didn't matter to her.

She didn't feel moved nor touched even after seeing the beautiful white dress. She was just pretending to be happy in front of Mia.

"Mommy! Go and try to wear it! I want to see what you will look like upon wearing it." Mia urged her.

"Okay. Just wait here."

The staff led her to the fitting room. Then they assisted Jane to wear the wedding dress.

While she was putting on the wedding dress with the help of the staff, another shop employee suddenly barged in, holding a phone.

Her colleagues were surprised when the employee entered without approval. She was not supposed to be there.

"What are you doing here? We are attending to our client. Why did you barge in like that?" the staff scolded the newcomer.

She just smiled apologetically as she turned to Jane.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry for my sudden intrusion but someone wants to talk to you and she asked me to give you this phone."

Jane frowned when she heard that. But she remained composed. "Alright. Give me the phone." Jane extended her right hand.

But the employee didn't hand over the phone yet as she looked at the other staff. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"She said she wants to talk to you alone. Can you please send them out for a moment?"

"What?! Why are you interrupting us? Can you just go back to your station?" The other employee was losing her patience. She thought her colleague was being ridiculous.

"Alright. You can leave. I need to answer this call." Jane thought it might be a call from Hanabi. They were aware that she was coming to the Wedding Dress Shop today for the dress fitting. This might be one of their ways of communicating with her behind Vincent's back.

When the three staff left, Jane answered the call. Her eyes sparkled in delight upon hearing the voice of the person from the other line.

"Why the hell are you marrying my man?! You already have Nathan! Stay away from Vincent. He is mine!" Monica's angry voice roared from the earpiece of the phone.

Instead of getting mad, Jane smiled triumphantly. She had been waiting for Monica to make an appearance. Now, she contacted her. It only meant Monica took her bait.

"I will not lie to you. I love Nathan. But Vincent left me with no choice. He is the one who is obsessed with me. He wants me to marry him even if it means forgetting about his revenge plan against Nathan."

Monica laughed sardonically, her sinister voice reverberating from the other line.

"Hahaha. You are being deceived, Phantomflake. I thought you were smart. But I was wrong. You are simply dumb. Don't tell me you believe Vincent's lies. Giving up his revenge? Haha, don't make me laugh. Taking you away from Nathan is also part of his revenge."

"Are you sure you can trust him? He even betrayed me! His long-time partner!"

Jane smirked. "You are just saying this because you are afraid of losing Vincent. I'm tired of this game, Monica. If marrying Vincent will bring peace to our lives then I will do it. I can always learn to love him." Jane tried to provoke her further by making Monica jealous.

"You can't marry him! Vincent is full of lies. You will never learn to love him. Hahaha. Did you really think that Mia is your daughter? Is that the reason why you are marrying him? Hahaha. Vincent is lying to you! Mia is not your daughter! I know her mother! It's not you!"

Jane was taken aback when she heard that.

'What? What did she just say? Mia is not my daughter?'

"You are lying! You just want me to stop marrying Vincent." Jane spat back at her.

But Monica just let out another mocking laugh. "I thought you'd recovered your lost memory. Haha. Are you deceiving yourself? Have you forgotten? You don't have a daughter. You had a baby boy. I suggest you check your medical records to do a fact check."

Jane was rendered speechless. She recalled the film of her fetal ultrasound. She was pregnant with a baby boy. She had forgotten about this important detail. 'Oh my god. Monica is telling the truth. I've read the result. My ultrasound said I had a baby boy. So… Mia can't be my daughter. Then why… Why did our DNA test result match?'

Jane suddenly became confused. Her mind was in chaos. 'Does it mean… is my baby truly gone? He is dead. Mia is not my daughter.'
