When Florence tried to seduce him again, he sensed that something was off. However, at the time he was preupied with other matters and could only handle it hastily. Now, he had plenty of time to deal with it.


    “After investigation, it was ordered by Mr. Read,” the secretary said in a small voice towards the end of her sentence, shrinking back in fear.


    She also knew about Jaiden’s rtionship with the boss. This situation made her feel like she was caught in between and unable to do anything.


    “Jaiden? Are you sure? Is this information urate?” Patrick furrowed his brow. He had heard about Jaiden taking that path but never thought that Jaiden woulde after him given their rtionship and Molly and Jane’s connection.


    “Yes sir, we have confirmed this information is correct; as for anything else, we are not too sure.” The secretary tried to maintain a professional demeanor but couldn’t help trembling under her boss’ gaze.


    “Okay I understand; you may go now.” Patrick frowned slightly before dialing Mike on his phone.


    “I knew you wouldn’t call me without reason; alright I got it – take care of Jane for me.” Mike’s strong voice came through the phone line carrying an undeniable authority.


    In the restaurant:


    “Molly, are you nning on leaving again aftering back this time?” Jane asked Molly.


    Molly had always been a good friend of hers so she really hoped that Molly would stay this time so she could help her out more.


    “No I’m not leaving anymore; after helping you out this onest time I n on retiring from all of this,” Molly replied while keeping a smile on her lips despite tears welling up in her eyes.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    “With me here, don’t be afraid. What happened?”


    Upon hearing Jane’s words, Molly couldn’t hold back her tears any longer, and they started flowing uncontrobly.


    Jane took out a tissue and wiped away Molly’s tears, reaching out to hold her friend’s hand,forting her.


    “You know, initially, I pretended to go abroad for better career prospects, but in reality, it was to follow Jaiden. However, I thought that after being ssmates for four years, we would at least have some friendship. I have never done anything out of line. But on that grand asion, without me doing anything, he publicly used me of seducing him and even tried to drag me out,” Molly choked up for a moment, but there seemed to be a different sparkle in her eyes that Jane couldn’t make out.


    “Hah, he really underestimated me. I caused a scene right then and there. I just regret not seeing through his true character. I’m sorry, Jane, for making you witness such a spectacle,” Molly said, as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. Her eyes started to shine.


    Jane finally smiled. She knew her friend would never disappoint her. But Molly’s actions also had an air of the Waters family’s style.


    “Well, after you go back, rest well. Let’s forget about leaving the industry. I didn’t mean it seriously,” Jane supported Molly as they walked out.


    “I wasn’t joking. I really want to leave the industry. After all, I’ve won all the famous awards once. It might be more pleasant to retire, with a few acres of goodnd and a courtyard,” Molly said without expecting a response. Jane just helped her friend into the car.


    The next day:


    “Judging by your state these past few days, you seem to have recovered well. There’s a variety show the day after tomorrow that I think suits you. You should go, and I’ll apany you backstage. It’s a good opportunity to increase your exposure,” Jane said, looking at April as she handed over a document.


    “Okay, Jane, don’t worry. I won’t let personal emotions affect my work. After this incident, I’m not that fragile anymore. I just might not easily trust a rtionship in the future,” April smiled and reassured Jane.


    Jane looked at April’s gentle smile and felt a change in her aura. She seemed to have be more resolute, but Jane wasn’t sure if this change was good or bad.


    “Mrs. Pansy, you can’t go in. Ourpany has regtions,” the receptionist spotted the imposing Beatrice from afar and hurriedly approached her.


    Beatrice was Patrick’s mother, and the receptionist didn’t dare to cause trouble. However, she couldn’tpliment her character.


    “Get out of my way! How dare an ordinary employee like you try to stop me here? I think you don’t want to live anymore,” Beatrice, ustomed to being overbearing, didn’t care where she was and just wanted to stir up trouble.


    “There arews in this country, and rules in every family. Though Star Entertainment may not be very famous, we can’t allow you to be so rude and unreasonable. As for me, if I don’t perform my job well, the supervisor will fire me. You don’t need to worry. Security, remove her,” the receptionist couldn’t stand it and directly confronted Beatrice, regardless of the possibility of being fired.


    The security guards, however, didn’t have the courage of the receptionist and didn’t dare to forcefully remove Beatrice. They managed to let her in through some persuasion.


    “Mrs. Pansy, you can’t go in.”


    April had juste out of Jane’s office and saw Beatrice. Thinking about Beatrice’s rtionship with Jane, she instinctively blocked her.


    “Get out of my way, a mere actress like you,” Beatrice pushed April to the ground. Caught off guard, April hit her head on a nearby cab and immediately passed out.


    Jane heard themotion outside and walked out. She immediately saw April lying on the ground and Beatrice. She understood what had happened. She instructed the receptionist and security guards, who had hurried over, to take April to the hospital first. She also instructed her secretary to retrieve the surveince footage as evidence, and then she dealt with Beatrice.


    Next, Jane took Beatrice to the waiting area.


    “You finally dare to see me,” Beatrice stared at Jane with her eyes wide open.


    “What are you nning, Mrs. Pansy, by making such a big fuss? Our Star Entertainment may be a smallpany, but it can’t amodate a big shot like you. This is a matter of life and death. If you don’t want to bear the consequences, you better handle it quickly,” Jane urged, with both veiled threats and words.


    Beatrice was taken aback by Jane’s forceful words and felt a sudden fear towards her.


    “Don’t try to beat around the bush with me. Let me tell you, I won’t leave here today. What can you do about it?” Although Beatrice had a slight retreat in her thoughts, she believed that for the sake of her son’spany, it was worth taking this risk. It was better than letting this woman destroy her son’spany.


    “I already know everything, so don’t hide it from me. Just tell me, did my son’s public rtions team and working capital all end up in your hands? You have quite the audacity. Who gave you such a face?” Beatrice pointed at Jane and started cursing, regardless of right or wrong.
