Chapter 134
Jane and the others did not notice Amy who had been hiding in the dark. After eating, they got into the car and prepared to return to Silverbourne. Amy chased after them and saw a few people getting into a luxury car, the jealousy in her heart was like a volcano erupting, and she could not stop it. How could Jane be able to ride in such a luxurious car after giving birth to someone else’s child? All of this should belong to her and not Jane. With a heart full of jealousy, Amy bought a train ticket back to Silverbourne and immediately returned home to talk to her mother about it. Returning to Silverbourne, Jane found a quiet afternoon to meet with Charles and gave him his pocket watch. When he received Jane’s gift, he was overjoyed.
“This is a thank you gift for you. Because I was injured before, I couldn’t take care of you.”
The surprise on Charles’s face froze when he heard that Jane’s gift was because of a previous car accident. It turned out that she was just repaying her favor, not because she wanted to give him a gift.
“Thank you, I like the gift very much“, he said. No matter what the reason was, Charles happily accepted the gift. Then, he brought up the fact that Drake was also injured in the car accident.
“Did you also give Drake the same gift to express your gratitude?“,
“Why am I giving him a gift? he’s pretending“, Jane said subconsciously.
“Such a dangerous thing is like a child’s play. I don’t know if his brain is a watt“. When she thought about that, Jane became a little angry. Hearing this, Drake looked a little complicated.
“Then what if I’m like him? Do you think I’m overthinking?“.
Jane was startled when he said that. After reacting, she looked at Charles and said,
“You shouldn’t do such a thing“.
Jane was suspicious for a moment, but she felt that something was wrong. Based on her understanding of Charles, he did not seem like someone who would do such a thing.
“I just said that, don’t worry about it“, Charles quickly said seeing that Jane’s expression has changed, he quickly smiled and changed the subject. Afterward, the two of them chatted again.
Jane mentioned her cooperation with the Warner Group, not wanting Charles to look at her in shock.
“Don’t you know that the cooperation between the Holbrook Corporation and the Warner Corporation has ended“?
Jane was stunned.
“I don’t know“, she said,
“President Warner personally came forward to terminate the cooperation and compensated for the liquidated damages, though, this cooperation is very important from the beginning, and it takes a long time to transfer goods from abroad. Our group has also terminated because of this sudden cooperation so the project stopped, and because of this, I lost my position as the group president, and now I’m just a vice president“, With that, Charles smiled bitterly, “You know my background, I’m the illegitimate son of the Holbrook’s family. To be able to return to my family and become the CEO of the Holbrook Group, I don’t know how much effort I put in, but a little. A small collaboration brought me back to my original form in an instant“.
A look of grief appeared on Charles’s face.
Jane didn’t know much about Charles’s past. Charles’s father was romantic and affectionate when he was young. There were many women outside, and the family had many children one of them is Charles. Because of his academic excellence, Charles Holbrook won various double degrees and became famous at a young age. He was brought back by the Holbrook family as an exception. Unlike Drake who was born the son of Heaven’s Chosen, Charles could almost be said to have used his efforts to get to where he was now. Seeing the sad expression on Charles’s face, Jane also felt a little sympathetic.
“Why did the Warner Family terminate the cooperation?“, She asked.
Charles shook his head, showing an innocent expression.
“It’s probably because President Warner doesn’t like me“.
Hearing that, Jane’s impression of Drake was even worse. He must be avenging his revenge, because she left him, he terminated the cooperation. Thinking of this, Jane felt a little ashamed of Drake and when she left Charles, she went directly to meet Drake.
Drake was a little surprised when he heard that she was there. After she entered the office, he was greeted with a question.
“Why did you terminate your cooperation with the Holbrook Corporation? Do you know how much of an impact it has had on Charles and how much loss it has brought to the Warner Corporation?“, She had always been in charge of the cooperation with the Lu Corporation.
Jane naturally knew how much damage it would bring to the Warner Corporation, but after her words, Drake did not listen to her last words at all. He only listened to how much impact the previous words had on Charles. It was because of the good mood that she took the initiative to find, but because of her words, it became a cloud of clouds. He stood up and walked in front of Jane. He said in a low voice, “You came to me because of the bad influence that the termination of cooperation had on him?“,
“Drake, I know you are bad at me but why? Don’t implicate the innocent people“.
Jane’s tone was also very bad. He repeatedly implicated the people around her, which made Jane feel very annoyed. She felt that the man in front of her was too arbitrary and unreasonable.
“Heh, innocent person!”
The corner of Drake’s mouth evoked a sneering smile, thinking it was ridiculous. Since she thought that he was that kind of person, then he would have done a good job.
“Yes, I’ve implicated innocent people because of you, what’s wrong? what can you do to me“,
Hearing Drake’s words, Jane felt more annoyed.
“What exactly do you want, Drake?“,
“I want you to stay by my side, all the time, every second, it’s not that I can’t continue to cooperate with the Holbrook Corporation but as long as you return to the Warner Corporation to work as my secretary, I will continue to cooperate with the Holbrook Corporation. Moreover, I can give him the lowest price for the cost of cooperation“.
Drake’s request was for cooperation. Since she came to him for cooperation, he should keep her by his side. Instead of letting her meet other men in front of him, it was better to stay by her side and
see them all the time. But what Drake said makes her angrier.
“You are too despicable, Drake“.
He knew that he had threatened her with the people around her. How could he be so shameless?
“You’re saying that I’m despicable. If I don’t do it to the fullest, I won’t be worthy of your praise“, Drake replied indifferently. Jane, who was mad at him for his shamelessness could only return to Warner’s work in the end, but she also scolded Drake to death in her heart.
