Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Jane became more and more dissatisfied as she thought about it and wanted to ask Patrick for a clear explanation.

So she dialed Patrick’s number directly.

“Why did you use such methods?” Jane sat in the car, gripping the steering wheel, and in her mind, scenes of two people getting divorced appeared, as if it had happened just yesterday.

On the other end of the phone, Patrick didn’t say much. He just chuckled and said, “Come to the company, and I’ll tell you all the answers.”

Upon hearing this, Jane didn’t linger and hung up the phone. She drove straight to his company.

Since Patrick’s return, Harrison hadn’t been very involved in the company’s affairs. However, Patrick’s company was already facing internal and external troubles, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t restore it to its former glory.

The last time Jane came to the company, it was for the purpose of acquiring it. At that time, Patrick was nowhere to be found, but this time Patrick showed up.

Jane walked into the company with heavy steps. The front desk staff recognized her and didn’t stop her. They directly led her to the CEO’s office.

Jane gently knocked on the door, and a cold voice came from inside, “Come in.”

After pushing open the door, Jane realized that there was not only Patrick in the office but also Harrison.

Harrison didn’t show much surprise when he saw her. Instead, it seemed as if he had expected her arrival. There had been conflicts between the two of them before, so he couldn’t help but be a bit sarcastic. “Isn’t this the famous Jane? Why do you have time to wander around our company? Could it be that our company has great geomancy?”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Ignoring his words, Jane walked directly to Patrick, placed her handbag on his desk, glanced at him, and said, “Don’t you want to give me a reasonable explanation?”

Patrick waved his hand at Harrison and said, “You can go home first.”

Harrison looked at the two of them thoughtfully, and after reminding Patrick, he said, “Don’t forget your promise to me.”

After saying that, he left the room, leaving only the two of them behind.

Jane looked at this person who used to be so familiar, but now they were on opposing sides. This feeling made her inexplicably uncomfortable.

Patrick gestured for her to sit, and Jane sat down on the couch.

“Let’s not focus on the trivialities between us.”

Jane took a deep breath. She had countless questions in her mind that she wanted to ask, but every time she was about to speak, scenes of the acquisition of their company would flash in her mind.

That image kept reminding her that they were already divorced, and there was no possibility of going back to how things were before.

“Aren’t you going to ask me anything?” Patrick looked at her as she remained silent.

“Will you tell me the truth?” Jane stared into his eyes, trying to find the answers within them.

“As long as you ask, I will tell you.”

Jane smiled faintly and nodded silently. “First question: Why didn’t you send the children to me earlier?”

When she found out that both children were still alive, she had countless times wanted to ask Patrick why they wouldn’t have survived without him.

Patrick simply chuckled and answered with a few simple words, “They are my children too.”

“Second question: Since you have already returned and know the true purpose of my interest in your company, why did you still obstruct me?” Jane only wanted to retain Patrick’s only asset, not his company for real.

Unfortunately, in Patrick’s eyes, it seemed like she was trying to take advantage of the situation and push him away like an outsider.

“You’ll know the answer to that in the future.”

Jane spread her hands and slumped into the couch. “A desperate move. Why did it have to happen to me?”

Patrick suddenly laughed when he heard her words. “I never thought we would end up like this. It’s just that in this process, we both fulfilled our respective commitments.”

Jane listened to his words in a daze and replied, “It seems that we can’t agree on anything.”

“From today onwards, you are you, and I am me. I hope you won’t disturb my life anymore, and I won’t interfere in your affairs.”

Jane stood up with all her strength to finish speaking. She felt a sense of relief throughout her body, but it was also painful.

She didn’t even hear Patrick’s response. After he walked out of the office, Jane sat in the car and tears began to stream down her cheeks. She didn’t know when he had become so emotional as well.

The Jane who used to be fearless and disregarded details seemed to have been worn down by reality.

Just then, her phone suddenly rang. Jane glanced at it and realized it was the nanny at home, so she quickly answered the call.

“Madam, please come back quickly. A group of people came and took the children away.”

Jane’s heart tightened upon hearing this. Before she could respond, the other nannies on the line were already talking to the group of people.

The situation was extremely critical.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Jane immediately drove home.

As soon as she entered, she heard cries of sorrow echoing through the house.

When she walked into the room, she saw several nannies sitting on the floor, crying in pain. The house was in disarray, as if it had been ransacked.

“What’s going on?” Jane asked anxiously.

“A group of people came and took the children without identifying themselves. We couldn’t stop them. Shortly after they left, another group arrived and looted the house. We couldn’t handle it, so we had to call you.”

Looking at the scene, one could imagine how intense the situation was.

Jane immediately called the police, and one of the nannies stood up and handed her a note. “This is left by the person who took the children.”

The others nodded in agreement, saying, “They should know you. Before they left, they mentioned that you should find them.”

Jane racked her brain, trying to recall all the people she knew. Apart from the Pansy family, no one else would resort to such despicable methods. Moreover, she hadn’t encountered any enemies in the business field.

Could it really be Mike?

This thought lingered in Jane’s mind but was interrupted by the sound of police sirens outside after a few seconds.

The police arrived quickly, and it was the same officer she had encountered at the police station yesterday.

“Why is it you again?” Cameron the police officer was surprised.

Encountering the same person twice within two days naturally felt strange.

Jane shrugged with a bitter smile. “I also don’t want the person you encounter to be me…”
