Seeing Freda’s angry expression, Jane furrowed her brows slightly.


    She nced at Osborn and, with a tone of impatience, said, “Osborn, go handle her.”


    With that, Jane ignored Freda and directly got into the car.


    She really didn’t want to waste time on someone so irrelevant.


    Seeing Jane’s disdainful look and herplete disregard, Freda’s anger intensified.


    Osborn stopped Freda, speaking coldly, “Freda, stop making trouble!”


    “Me making trouble?” Freda pursed her lips. “Osborn, why won’t you answer my calls? Why won’t you see me?”


    Freda wanted to exin to Osborn, but he didn’t give her a chance.


    Unable to find Osborn, she had no choice but toe to Jane.


    She wanted to warn Jane, to keep her away from Osborn!


    But she hadn’t expected to see Osborn and Jane together.


    That shameless fox spirit, Jane, was clinging to Osborn again!


    “I’ve made it clear to you. We have no rtionship!” Osborn squinted his eyes, his handsome face tense. “Freda, please don’t bother me anymore, and don’t trouble Jane.”


    Pausing, Osborn’s gaze turned colder. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind your scandals trending.”


    “Osborn, let me exin…”


    Before Freda could finish, Osborn impatiently pushed her away and got into the car.


    With a snap, the car door closed.


    Osborn started the car.


    Jane, with a calm expression, asked, “Is it settled?”


    “Yeah.” Osborn spoke earnestly. “Jane, rest assured, I won’t let anyone smear you again.”


    As long as his proposal to Jane seeded at tomorrow’s awards ceremony, no one would be able to gossip about them anymore.


    He was looking forward to that moment.


    Osborn knew Jane; she wouldn’t reject him in front of so many people, leaving him embarrassed.


    Leaning back in her seat, Jane took out her phone and scrolled through the news for a while.


    The reports about her leaking Pansy Group’s confidential information were nowhere to be found.


    Did Patrick have someone take care of it?


    At this time… he should be in the hospital, right?


    Rubbing her temples, Jane heard Osborn’s low voice, “We’re here, Jane. Let’s get off.”


    Osborn parked the car in front of a Sichuan restaurant.


    “Jane, you like spicy food, and this ce is excellent.” Osborn wore a faint smile.


    As usual, he had arranged for the restaurant to be cleared in advance. Osborn didn’t like to be disturbed when he was with Jane.


    Seated, Osborn handed the menu to Jane. “Jane, take a look at what you want to eat.”


    Jane casually picked a few dishes. “Just these.”


    Soon, the dishes arrived, and Jane enjoyed her meal heartily.


    Indeed, it suited her taste.


    “Oh, didn’t you say you had some business to discuss with me?” Jane suddenly remembered and wiped her mouth, asking.


    Osborn nodded, cleared his throat, and said, “Well, next month, ourpany’s major family drama, ‘Harem Splendors.’ For the casting of the female lead, I’m considering Maria or Tina Amelia. Any suggestions?”


    Jane smiled, “You decide on those matters.”


    Since Maria endorsed Pansy Group’s “Ice and Fire” series, her poprity had skyrocketed. She had also taken on several highly sessful advertisements, bing the entertainment industry’s rising goddess.


    And Tina, on the other hand, is a popr actress under Star Entertainment and the winner of this year’s Oscar for Best Actress.


    Maria’s temperament aligns more with the female lead, but in terms of experience, Tina might be more suitable.


    “I’ll think about it some more,” Osborn said, still undecided.


    The next day, Jane arrived early at Pansy Group.


    As she entered thepany gates, Pansy Group’s employees were pointing and whispering about her.


    “I heard Jane leaked the confidential information for the North Bay project, causing ourpany to lose to BPL.”


    “Really? Can’t believe it. She still has the nerve toe to work?”


    Jane ignored them, walking past without acknowledging their gossip, and headed straight to the office.


    Looking at the overwhelming BPL propaganda about the North Bay project online, Jane curled her lips.


    Did Antony really think he could win?


    Heh.


    Regarding the North Bay project, Jane had aprehensive n long ago.


    Candice intentionally leaking Pansy Group’s confidential information to frame her was just part of Jane’s n.


    By letting BPL acquire the North Baynd at a high price, Antony was overconfident.


    In a few days, the government would officially announce ns for a chemical industrial park near North Bay.


    BPL’s n for the North Bay project was to build arge residential area.


    However, once the news of the chemical industrial park was revealed, who would buy property there?


    At that time, thend in North Bay would be worthless.


    Antony would have to sell at a low price.


    This way, Pansy Group could acquire thend at a price much lower than three hundred million.


    With Patrick’s capabilities, relocating the chemical industrial park should not be difficult.


    By then, Pansy Group would be the ultimate winner!


    Jane wanted to report the n to Patrick, but he was absent from the office the entire day.


    Could it be… he was at the hospital with Candice?Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Feeling a bit stifled, Jane asked Morton, “Where is Patrick?”


    Morton shook his head, “The CEO didn’te to thepany today?”


    “Is he at the hospital?” Jane furrowed her brows.


    Morton shook his head again, “No.”


    “Then where is he?” Jane pressed on.


    Morton shrugged, “Miss North, I really don’t know. This morning, the CEO told me he had something to do and woulde to thepanyter. He asked me to cancel all the morning meetings.”


    “Okay…” Seeing Morton’s expression, Jane knew he genuinely didn’t know where Patrick went.


    It wasn’t until the evening that Patrick appeared.


    Jane was focused on her work when Patrick, at some point, stood in front of her.


    “Jane, let’s go.”


    Patrick’s maic voice suddenly sounded, and as Jane lifted her gaze, she met his deep eyes.


    “Go where?” Jane asked in surprise.


    Patrick looked deeply into her eyes. “You’ll find out when youe with me.”


    Checking the time, Jane calmly said, “Sorry, Patrick, I have ns tonight. I’ll be leaving after work.”


    “What do you have?” Patrick asked expressionlessly.


    Jane answered truthfully, “I’m attending the Oscars ceremony tonight.”


    Patrick’s eyes narrowed slightly. “You’re interested in that?”


    “Not really,” Jane smiled. “I promised Osborn to attend his award ceremony.”


    Patrick’s expression suddenly darkened.
