Chapter 1021 The Appearance of the Pansy Family
“I’m back, it’s so good to be back.”
April was so excited that tears streamed down her face. Seeing her good friend return with the two children they had regained, it made her even happier.
In her joy, April noticed the man standing beside Jane. He couldn’t be described as handsome, but his demeanor was gentle, and he looked very refined.
April patted Jane’s shoulder and asked, “Who is this person?”
Jane pushed her away and said, “Let’s talk about it in the car.”
They all got into the car and sat in the back seats. Jane sat in the front passenger seat, and the driver was Jane’s personal driver,.
As soon as they got in the car, April entertained the two children, who were well-behaved. However, her eyes kept drifting towards Michael.
After arriving home, Jane handed the two children over to the nannies, who looked surprised. She didn’t provide any explanation.
“Are you going home?” Jane asked Michael.
Michael smiled wryly and said, “As an orphan, I don’t have a home.”
Upon hearing this, Jane and April exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.
Michael took a step forward and patted Jane’s shoulder. “I still have important matters to attend to. You two have a reunion.”Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Then, he left alone.
April bombarded Jane with questions and finally learned about all of her whereabouts and actions abroad.
“No wonder you haven’t contacted me all this time. I understand now,” April couldn’t help but sigh.
“As long as the two children are safe, that’s all that matters. But I always feel that something is fishy. If the children can come back, why can’t Patrick?” April wondered.
At the mention of Patrick’s name, Jane felt a chilling sensation, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. She fought back tears, refusing to let them fall.
April comforted her for a while but didn’t ask any further questions before leaving for the company.
Jane stayed at home with the two children, gazing at their faces with tenderness and a smile on her lips.
She didn’t want to do anything else now. She just wanted to watch her children grow up slowly by her side.
Even her work had been neglected in these past few days, but to her, it was as precious as a recovered pearl.
If she had to make the choice again, she would definitely be extremely cautious and never let the children out of her sight, just like now.
Now, the people from the Pansy family also knew that the children were back in Jane’s hands, and they were all gathered together, discussing the situation.
As Mike looked at the serious expressions of the people in front of him, he knew that what the Pansy family had done to Jane was truly unforgivable.
But now, none of that mattered. Since the children were back, everything should revolve around them.
The only thing they should focus on now was this.
“Jane will have a hard time taking care of the children alone. I also really miss the kids. Do you have any ideas?” Mike asked, staring at the people in front of him, waiting to see if they could come up with a satisfactory solution.
Beatrice had narrowly escaped the consequences of her previous actions.
Although she felt a bit uneasy facing Mike this time, not knowing how to interact with him, Mike didn’t bring up that matter, which made her feel more at ease. Now that Mike needed to bring Jane’s children back, she also considered the issue in her heart. When she thought about it, she spoke up directly.
“Why don’t we go and see the children? That way, we can also observe Jane’s attitude.”
“For the first time, we shouldn’t make any demands. Our main focus should be on observing Jane. If we have the opportunity, we can think of other solutions.”
Beatrice’s attitude was clear. Jane had already been thoroughly offended by them, and this time, they wanted to negotiate with her.
She felt that it was necessary to find a suitable time to assess Jane’s attitude and see if there was any improvement.
If her attitude hasn’t improved, any demands they make would be in vain.
But if Jane’s attitude has shown some change, they can delve into the specifics.
“The method you proposed is feasible, but I can’t wait that long.”
“You need to seize the opportunity. If the timing is right, present the request accordingly.”
When Beatrice heard Mike’s firm words, she didn’t know what choice to make.
If she refused, she feared she would feel uncomfortable facing Mike.
But if she accepted directly, she knew she couldn’t handle the situation alone and would need some help.
“In that case, several of us should go together, and I shouldn’t be the one to bring it up. I can only show sincere intentions.”
“If I bring it up, Jane will definitely refuse. Perhaps she might even kick us out in anger.”
Mike thought for a moment and agreed with Beatrice’s reasoning. The relationship between both parties had been tense in the past, and it had even reached the point of confrontation. If Beatrice were to say those words now, she wouldn’t be able to bring herself to do it.
Moreover, it would only escalate the conflict. So, apart from Beatrice, there were only a few people left to choose from. After discussing among themselves, they decided to let the youngest uncle bring up the issue.
As the youngest uncle was not considered a direct member of the Pansy family, it was most appropriate for him to broach the subject casually.
After everyone reached an agreement, they drove directly to Jane’s place.
Upon arrival, everyone greeted Jane with great enthusiasm, paying no attention to her cold expression.
“These children are so adorable. It would be great if Mike could spend more time with them.”
Mike deliberately responded, “Taking care of the children wouldn’t be a problem, but unfortunately, I’m getting older and my health isn’t good. It wouldn’t be feasible for me to travel back and forth.”
When Beatrice heard this, she intentionally remarked on how much Mike loved these children, all the while stealing glances at Jane.
She hoped to find an answer from Jane’s behavior but was disappointed. Jane remained cold and indifferent.
She neither acknowledged nor showed any sign of response. She even deliberately avoided looking in Beatrice’s direction. This made Beatrice feel extremely awkward.
However, they had to resolve this matter; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to satisfy Mike.
Beatrice knew she couldn’t handle Mike’s anger when they returned home.
“Now, we’ve regained the children we lost. These two adorable kids will definitely grow up healthy.”
