Chapter 161
Jane had lowered her voice deliberately to make it sound as deep and hoarse as a man. In addition, her disguise skills were superb.
For a moment, Drake thought that he had made a mistake. The person in front of him was just a handsome man. How could it be Jane?
However, her smell was unique, he had never smelled it on other people. Yet, this man smelled the same as her.
With doubts in his heart, he stared intently at Jane, then asked coldly, “Where are the children?”
With Drake’s question, Jane did not let her nervousness show. Instead, she made a puzzled face. Her acting skills showed no flaws.
“What? I don’t understand what you’re talking about, Sir.”
Drake continued to stare at ‘him‘. He did this because he wanted to see whether ‘his‘ eyes would give off something unusual, but after his question, the man still looked the same. ‘He‘ did nothing suspicious. This made him think that maybe he was too stressed that he became skeptical of everyone around him.
On the other hand, when Linda heard Drake’s words, she immediately thought of the two children beside Jane. A trace of confusion and doubt appeared in her eyes.
However, Drake’s eyes were only focused on Jane, so he did not notice the changes in Linda’s expression.
“How long are you planning to pretend?” Drake still did not give up. He still held Jane’s hand and asked again coldly.
Jane also understood that he did not recognize him, but was just testing her.
After that, she changed her expression from being confused to being annoyed. She ripped her hand out of Drake’s grip and then yelled loudly, “If you continue acting like this, Sir, then I’ll call the police! I’ve already said it, it was your companion who bumped into us first. What else do you want?”
Linda also reacted at this time. She stepped forward to block Jane and faced Drake.
“Hmph, don’t think that you can just intimidate us. If you still insist on disturbing us, I’ll call the police right away,” Linda also threatened.
Not to be outdone, the beautiful woman beside Drake also stepped forward to argue, “Then call them! We’re not afraid of you. Let them call the police, Mr. Warner, we’re not at the wrong here. It’s just right, so they can pay for my dry cleaning fee.”
The beautiful woman was a client who came to ask for Drake’s cooperation. Aside from that, she was also interested in Drake himself. If she could hook up with him, even if she could not marry him, she would not suffer.
Now was a great opportunity to attract Drake’s attention.
After being pushed away, Drake’s eyes were still on Jane. When she was about to lose her composure, he finally looked away.
He said coldly, “I’m sorry. I’ve mistaken you for someone else.” With that, he left without looking
back.
When the woman saw him leaving, she hurriedly chased after him.
Jane finally breathed a sigh of relief when she could no longer see Drake. However, seeing them leave together, she felt her heart ache a bit.
‘He could move on quickly. It was not long after she left, yet he already had someone beside him. Humph, scumbag!‘
“John“…” Linda watched as Jane became lost in thought watching the two people leave.
Jane returned to her senses and looked at Linda. “What’s the matter, Linda?”
“John‘, do you know that man?” Linda asked with certainty.
Hearing this, Jane immediately shook her head to deny it. “No. What made you think that?”
“He asked for the children. He didn’t mean your two children, right?” Linda answered, now with a little
confusion.
Jane’s expression shifted for a second. Linda happened to catch it, so she was even more sure of her guess. She knew the man just now,
Jane did not want everyone to know about her, so she found an excuse to fool her. She did not care if Linda believed it or not because she was about to leave with her children again.
On the way back, both Jane and Linda were absent–minded. What bothered Jane was that in the huge US, after disguising herself, she could still meet Drake. What more if she returned to Silverbourne? She could still get away once or twice, but if they meet too often, her disguise would surely crack.
What Linda was thinking about was the relationship between that man and Jane. Could it be that ‘John‘, who she liked, had run away with that man’s children?
But why?
From that man’s expression, he seemed to have mixed feelings for him. Could it be that that man liked ‘John‘, but he had children with another woman, so ‘John‘ ran away with his children?
Linda’s thoughts became a mess. Fortunately, Jane did not know what was going on in her head, otherwise, she would ask her if she had watched too many dramas.
When she got home, Jane took her two children to start packing up to prepare for returning home.
Because she did not want anyone to find them, Jane did not plan to fly back directly.
On the other hand, after leaving, Drake was still thinking about Jane, so he called Simon Reed. He asked coldly, “It’s been half a month. There’s still no news from them?”
Drake’s voice was frighteningly cold, making people tremble in fear.
Simon did not find Jane, so he could only temporarily give the information he found to Drake.
“My person got the footage from the surveillance camera near the abandoned Bugatti. It’s a man with two children, so I think it’s very likely that she would put on a disguise.” Simon expressed his thoughts.
As soon as he finished speaking, Drake’s footsteps faltered. He once again recalled the handsome man he had just seen in the coffee shop. Combined with Simon’s words.
“So…”
Drake returned to his senses, turned around, and ran straight towards the cafe. When the beautiful woman had finally caught up with Drake, he had already run past her.
But before she could ask, he had already gone far. She had no choice but to endure her aching feet and chase after him again.
When Drake returned to the cafe, he asked the staff to pull up the
surveillance video for him, and compared it with the video Simon sent.
He was finally sure that his gut feeling was correct. That handsome man was Jane!
Realizing this, he wilted a little. He had underestimated Jane’s ability in disguising.
After tracing some clues, he quickly found out her address.
A person who could disguise themselves was difficult to find. It was with Linda that Drake finally got a clue.
