Chapter 135
Because he met with Jane, Charles gets to know that she was not working at the Warner Company. After returning to the company, Charles planned to let Jane work in the Holbrook Corporation. In this way, even if he lost his cooperation with the Warner Corporation, he would not lose too much. However, the next day, he received news from the Warner family that they would continue to cooperate and that the cost of cooperation had been reduced by 20%. When Charles received this news, he immediately thought that Drake must have no good intentions and wanted to do something nonsense. However, the news from the Warner Family required him to personally come forward to discuss the details of the continued cooperation. With a cautious and subtle heart, Charles came to the Warner Group to meet Drake, In the conference room, Charles looked at Drake who was sitting in the first place calmly, he rolled his eyes and sat down. Without beating around the bush, he directly asked his doubts.
“How could President Warner want to cooperate again? It’s still 20% lower than before?“, a member of Holbrook Cooperation asked,
Drake did not answer. The member’s frivolous words directly aroused Charles’s competitive spirit and responded directly.
“Why don’t you dare? The big deal is that I, Charles, can pay tens of millions to play with President Drake, when the cooperation was terminated, it was not only the Holbrook Corporation that suffered losses. The Warner Corporation also lost money. The large amount of liquidated damages was not small and since Drake was so willing, what did he dare not do? Only this time, he would prepare a way out for himself“.
When he saw Charles’s enthusiasm, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
“I’ll wait and see!“.
It was only tens of millions, and he hadn’t seen it. The cooperation was finalized in detail. The two signed a contract again. When Charles took out a pen from his pocket, he took out a pocket watch and placed it on the table. When his eyes touched the pocket watch that Charles had brought out, Drake’s hand paused to sign, and he made a big deal on the contract. He was already familiar with this item. It was exactly what Jane had said he wanted to give to Charles.
He picked up his pocket watch, and Charles held it in his hand.
“Fortunately, it’s not bad, this is a gift from Miss Jane if it’s broken, I don’t know how to explain it to Miss her“.
Hearing this, Drake’ss face darkened even more, but Charles still smiled as he looked at Drake.
“Boss, can you tell what era this pocket watch is? I don’t know much about antiques. If President Warner knows, I will explain a few things to Charles. Next time I see Miss Jane Charles will be able to talk to her more. Just a few words“.
Charles’s words were deliberately meant for Drake to listen to.
“It’s just a broken pocket watch. What’s the point? It’s not necessarily just a piece of merchandise“, Drake said coldly.
“Really, but even if it’s a street stall, as long as it’s from Miss Jane, I like it“, Charles said affectionately.

Yeah, since Mr. Holbrook likes it, it’s best to keep it. Don’t lose or break it“, Drake said in a low voice.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Warner, Mr. Holbrook will not let such a thing happen“.
A triumphant smile appeared on Charles’s face. After the tense atmosphere was over, Charles made to leave the Warner Corporation. After he left the meeting room, Drake called Jane directly.
“Go and ask Secretary Bentley to escort President Holbrook downstairs“.
Hearing Drake’s words, Charles felt a strange feeling in his heart. The secretary Bentley he was talking about was not Jane Bentley, was she?
When he called Jane over, the corner of Charles’s face that was still rising, instantly suppressed it. He did not expect that the secretary Drake was talking about would be Jane. There was a look of astonishment on his face, but because Drake was in front of him, it was difficult for Charles to ask. When Jane took him to the elevator, Charles couldn’t help but ask.
“What’s going on? Didn’t you say you’re no longer working with the Warner Family? Why are you back again?“.
Jane hesitated for a moment. Charles was targeted by Drake because of her. Of course, she would not add fuel to the fire at such a time. He could only give another explanation, “I can learn a lot in the Warner Family, so I came back again“,
Hearing Janes’s explanation, Charles quickly said,
“If you want to get in touch with this field of work and gain experience, you can come to the Holbrook Corporation. The Holbrook Corporation is no worse than the Warner Corporation“, he said what he had already thought, but after his words, Qiao Huan shook her head.
“It’s alright, I’m fine with the Warner Family“.
With this, Charles was a little disappointed, but he thought of something.
“The cooperation with the Warner Family was something you won for me, wasn’t it?“,
No wonder Drake would suddenly cooperate again. It turned out to be because of Jane. Thinking of this, Charles’s feelings for Jane deepened. He felt that Jane had done too much for him.
“It’s not a big deal. The termination of this cooperation will be a loss for both the Holbrook Corporation and the Warner Corporation“.
Jane gave her thoughts and opinions. Although she explained Charles still believed that everything Jane did was for his sake, and he became even more determined toward her. Afterward, he asked Jane to have dinner together after work. These words quickly reached Drake’s ears. When he learned that Jane had not rejected Charles’s invitation, his mood sank again. Then, on Jane’s first day at work, it was darkened by the heavy work arranged by Drake. When the overtime was over, the man insisted that she accompany her to see some clients. After arriving at the restaurant, he ordered a -meal and waited for a while but the customer did not come. After the food came, the man
immediately moved his chopsticks. Looking at this situation, there was nothing Jane did not understand. She was fooled by Drake again, and he did not have any customers at all.
With a cold snort, Jane just looked at him coldly and did not eat.
“Why don’t you try it? It’s all your favorite dishes“,
“Is it interesting that you lie like this?“, Jane said coldly,
“If I didn’t say that, would you agree to accompany me to dinner?“, Drake asked.
Jane did not answer because she knew the answer in her heart that she would not agree.
“Even so, you can’t use such a deceitful method“,
“If you don’t refuse, I don’t have to use any means“, Drake said indifferently.
Jane was speechless, angry, and helpless.
‘Drake, I’ve said it many times, no matter what you do, I can’t go back to the past so you don’t have to do these meaningless things“, Jane reiterated.
