Flashback.
Jane tried to act as normal as possible. It had been almost two weeks that she felt she could not find Henry around the Johnson family residence.
Where is her husband now?
The attitude of the other maids and the domestic workers did not change one bit. They still don't care about Jane's figure, ostracize her and barely invite Jane to speak.
It didn't really matter because Jane didn't really care. It's up to them. Will they pity her or not?
That night Jane wanted to hurry to the kitchen. However, her footsteps stopped when she heard the conversation between Megan and Thomas Johnson in the living room.
"Honey? Aren't you going to be so rude to your own son?" Meghan said to her husband, who was sitting cross-legged.
Thomas was rubbing the tablet screen while looking at the work report. He didn't seem interested in the topic of reading about Henry.
"Right now, there are more important matters regarding work. I've already told Henry about it, and he agreed," Thomas replied curtly.
"Can we just formalize their relationship? Maybe it's good if people know that..."
Meghan hadn't finished speaking, and Thomas had jerked his tablet on the table. Thomas' legs were no longer crossed, and his elbows rested on his knees.
"I'm not going to talk about this again, Meghan! I hope you understand that this woman doesn't deserve to be with my son. You shouldn't have to ask me what this crazy thing is!" Thomas is annoyed with his wife's attitude that she is still discussing Jane and Henry's relationship.
"Yes, I know! But Jane is actually a nice girl," Meghan said carefully.
But Thomas just stared furiously at his wife's statement just now.
"Huh… good girl, you say? A good girl is not enough for the Johnson family. Henry needs a woman who is equal to him. Educated with clear family background," said Thomas clearly.
"Did you forget, Meghan?" Thomas slightly shifted his sitting position, and his wife was still listening.
"That girl has a mental background! If you don't beg and want to help her. I couldn't have hired such a crazy woman to be in this house, and suddenly she married our son?!
"What will happen to our descendants?" said Thomas heartlessly.
"Thomas, calm down. Have you forgotten that Jane has always been kind? She never shows anything weird, crazy, or anything like that," Meghan tried to calm her husband's already emotional attitude.
"No, Meghan!" Thomas's voice was loud.
"I would never agree to their relationship! I'm still letting Jane stay in this house because I've made a deal with Henry!"
"If she obeys and helps with my work. I won't hurt Jane at all," Thomas explained, and he was still adamant in his opinion.
Jane stepped back when she heard the conversation between Thomas and Meghan. Suddenly, she felt afraid of Thomas's words just now.
Jane returned to her room, closed the door, and locked it. She immediately headed for the bed, took a pillow, and covered her face because Jane's sobs had started to break out again.
"So… that's why I couldn't meet Henry? Oh, my God. Is falling in love wrong if it's wrong? Why did you let me fall in love with Henry?" asked Jane with tears in her eyes.
"If indeed we were never able to unite. Why did you bring us together?" said Jane with a sniffle.
Jane felt her aching heart like being sliced into pieces by a sharp knife.

Jane didn't know how long she had been crying. Finally, she fell asleep, and it felt like her eyes were so tired. Jane felt that her head was heavy from crying too much every night.
But it was the middle of the night and without her knew. A figure entered her room. Quietly and closed the door to Jane's room slowly. At that time, Jane had not realized when someone had climbed into her bed.
Just when someone touched and caressed the soft side of Jane's arm. The woman quickly opened her eyes. Jane almost screamed, until finally Henry immediately hugged Jane's mouth tightly.
Henry's one index finger pressed against his own lips.
"Shhh… don't be so loud, Jane. I purposely came home early tonight. My mom and dad don't know about it. They only know that I'm coming home tomorrow morning," Henry said quietly and almost in a whisper.
Jane nodded quickly, and before long, Henry let go of his grip on her mouth.
"Henry? I've been looking for you for the past few days, and I just found out that you were sent by your father to work away from New York," Jane said as she straightened her seat.
But Henry doesn't seem to care what Jane says. Instead, he cupped Jane's cheeks and stared intently into his wife's eyes.
At that moment, Jane read Henry's mind, and she knew that her husband missed her so much.
"I'm sorry, Jane. I haven't been able to keep my promise to make you happy. Right now, all I can do is protect you," Henry explained again.
"It's all right, Henry. I know what you're doing for both of us."
Jane immediately gave her husband a tight hug. She gently brushed her husband's back with a soft caress.
Henry grabbed Jane's shoulders. And soon, he kissed Jane's lips which he missed so much.
Henry's kiss on the lips was soft, and Jane could feel his immense love for Henry. She also returned a kiss on Henry's lips with an equally gentle rhythm.
The two lips intertwined. It had been a long time since the two lips had met and caressed each other.
Jane let Henry explore every curve of her body. She let her husband channel his passion on the turmoil of romance they had been putting off for days.
One by one, the nightgowns wore by Jane slipped off her body. And Henry has given up his job.
There are no more words that come out of the mouth of the two of them. There are only showing each other their love at that time.
Jane gave a lot of kisses on each side of her husband's face.
Likewise, Henry returned a kiss on every curve of his wife's body until finally, Jane could only reply by embracing his body while holding Henry's shoulders tightly.
"I want you tonight, Jane," Henry said with a seductive sigh.
