Jane was given an enormous amount of data and documents to organise on that day. Drake requested that she arrange the documents and send them to his email address.
When Jane saw the messy pile of materials in front of her, she didn’t know where to start. She had forgotten how mentally taxing and complicated such tasks could be, having gone so long without having to deal with them.
Since becoming a boss, she no longer had to personally handle such trivial matters.
Despite not having done it for a while, she quickly fell back into the rhythm and performed it flawlessly. In less than three hours, Jane managed to sort everything out.
It didn’t take long for Drake to call Jane to his office, less than half an hour after receiving
the files.
“You didn’t organise the materials by yourself?” Drake questioned directly.
Upon hearing his words, Jane replied coldly, “Are you saying that it wasn’t just me organising them? Could it be that you helped me?”
“Fine, come here and explain it to me in detail,” Drake said, not believing that Jane could have organised so many messy documents into detailed files in such a short time.
Without a second thought, Jane walked directly to his side. As Drake showed her different locations on the computer screen, Jane was able to easily articulate detailed explanations.
As they spoke, Drake caught a faint fragrance from her and felt her breath brushing against his ear due to their proximity, making his heart race uncontrollably.
The man beside her appeared perfectly normal to Jane, who was lost in thought. Her attention was fixed on the computer screen as Drake pointed out different locations. After he stopped, she calmly said, “Were these so difficult?”
As soon as Jane asked her question, Drake shook off his daze and focused on the areas she had referred to as difficult.
To him, they didn’t seem difficult, but he remembered a time when the previous Jane would have struggled with them.
Even in the face of adversity, she exuded an air of calm.
Drake was perplexed whether he failed to understand the experienced Jane or if Jane had evolved into someone who could handle what most people would consider challenging.
“Since you’re so capable, then organise the projects of several industries under the company as well,” Drake said casually.
The Warner Group’s business ventures spanned across various industries, showcasing their wide–ranging expertise. Even with Jane’s exceptional skills and impressive speed, it would still be quite time–consuming to organise everything completely.
He hoped that by providing her with more opportunities to keep busy, she would not feel. the need to run to the other man as often.
Jane began to understand that Drake’s actions were not accidental, but rather a deliberate

effort to assign her a large amount of work. With determination and strength, she endured the situation by gritting her teeth.
The workload was so heavy that Jane was unable to finish her tasks within her normal working hours. She could only bring the pile of materials home to work on after finishing work.
As soon as Jane arrived at the hospital, she noticed Jasper sitting at his desk, intently staring at his computer screen, tapping his fingers on the surface, and furrowing his eyebrows in deep concentration.
“What’s wrong?” Jane asked when she entered, noticing Jasper’s troubled expression.
Jasper’s head shot up as he heard Jane’s footsteps approaching. His troubled expression softened somewhat, but he still appeared uneasy.
“There’s a minor problem with the business, nothing major,” he said.
Jane was unperturbed by Jasper’s dismissal when she heard it. Despite running his own business, Jasper held the position of her senior designer. Designing was something he enjoyed doing in his free time, but it wasn’t his main occupation.
He had gained fame in the design industry, and his success extended to his several thriving vineyards.
“How are you feeling today? Are you feeling any better?”
“With your careful care every day, how can I not be?” Jasper smiled.
Upon finishing dinner with Jasper, Jane realised it was already dark outside and decided to head home.
The moment Jane stepped into the living room with a stack of documents, she could hear her son Zane and best friend April chatting.
In front of April, Zane, a little person, stood with a serious expression, his small chest puffed out as he spoke.
“Auntie, if you find a man like me, you’ll be worry–free for the rest of your life. Just like me, not only am I handsome, but I’m also very caring. You can ask Zoe if you don’t believe me.” April smiled at Zane’s words, and coincidentally seeing Jane return, she happily said to her. “Sis, come and listen to what your son is saying. He’s teasing me, saying I should find a man like him to get married.”
“Isn’t that what you said you wanted, a daughter like Zoe? So, I’m just giving you an example of the standards for finding a man,” Zane chimed in.
Jane placed the stack of documents on the table and looked at Zane, speaking softly, “You’re not considered a man yet.
”
“Why am I not considered one?” Zane protested, puffing out his chest.
“At best, you’re just a little boy,” Jane assessed Zane, realising that he had grown a little taller over time.
“No, Mommy, I’m already a man. I’m brave, tenacious, sensible, and able to take care of you and Zoe. These are qualities that a man possesses, and I have them all,” Zane earnestly

declared.
Jane was shocked by Zane’s statement, but she couldn’t help but burst into laughter and affectionately tousle his hair.
“Your words are correct, Zane. Indeed, my Zane is a man now,” Jane praised with a smile.
Zane’s laughter echoed with a sense of accomplishment, mirroring the pride that filled him.
As she watched Zane’s energetic movements and then caught a glimpse of the adorable and charming Zoe, April felt an increasing longing to become a mother.
She tried to focus, but a charming and handsome face kept popping into her mind, which she tried to ignore.
Their relationship was already strained, so the possibility of having a child together felt like an unrealistic dream.
Jane observed April’s face turn instantly lonely, and she knew it was because she was thinking about the man she couldn’t have. She comforted her with a warm embrace and whispered words of reassurance.
“Don’t overthink it. Zoe and Zane are also your children.”
“Auntie, if you don’t have your own children in the future, I will take care of you,” Zane chimed in.
April was lost in thought until Zane’s childlike words brought her back to reality, and she hugged him tightly.
“Okay, then I’ll rely on you to take care of me in the second half of my life.”
After tucking the two little ones into bed, Jane turned on her computer to begin her overtime work.
April noticed that Jane was still working so late and sat down beside her, concern etched on her face.
“Why are you still working?”
April picked up a document and flipped it open, expecting to see information about Jane’s business, but was shocked to find details about Warner Group instead.
“Why are you looking at Warner Group’s documents?”
Jane had kept her job at Warner Group a secret from April, so April had assumed that Jane was fully occupied with her business.
“Sis, tell me honestly, are you involved with Drake again?”
“No, I’m not,” Jane replied helplessly. It wasn’t until April started questioning her that she felt compelled to explain her job at Warner Group.
“That scumbag is going too far, using Zac to threaten you,” April exclaimed, defending Jane.
