Kim, puzzled, asked from the side, “What’s going on?”


    Maria quietly exined to Kim.


    But when Kim heard this, he became immediately angry. “Why do you need to talk about conditions for something like this? Saving lives is the priority. Are you really unable to distinguish between what’s important and what’s not?”


    Facing her son’s reproach, Mrs. Ragsdill didn’t care at all. As long as she could clear her name, she was indifferent to his criticism.


    “I don’t care about all that. As long as you fulfill your promise, I’ll definitely do as agreed. Now that I’ve done my part, the important thing is whether you can do yours,” Mrs. Ragsdill directly questioned Jane.


    Jane nced at her and said to Kim, “Today’s events have been tough on you. If it weren’t for you, these two children wouldn’t have been so fortunate. Since I’ve promised your mother, I’ll fulfill it.”


    Jane gestured to Mrs. Ragsdill to join her for a trip to thepany. After all, such matters were best resolved in the office for credibility.


    Maria stayed behind to apany the two children.


    In the car, neither of them said a word as they sat in silence.


    It wasn’t until they arrived at thepany that Mrs. Ragsdill saw a glimmer of hope and walked towards thepany’s entrance.


    Once inside the conference room, the agreement had already been prepared by the assistant andid out on the table.


    Upon seeing the agreement, Mrs. Ragsdill immediately picked it up and scrutinized every word and use carefully, fearing that she might overlook something and fall into Jane’s trap.


    Seeing her serious demeanor, Jane found it somewhat amusing. “You seem to be afraid of me. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so cautious.”


    Mrs. Ragsdill didn’t respond to Jane’s remark. She simply continued to read, carefully analyzing every word until she was satisfied.


    “All’s fair in war. I naturally have to be cautious,” she said.


    Seeing that Mrs. Ragsdill had no objections, Jane picked up thepany seal and stamped it on the document without hesitation.


    “We’ll hold a press conference in half an hour. As for this agreement, it will also be published on ourpany’s official website. If you have any further questions, feel free to raise them.”


    Jane wasn’tpromising with Mrs. Ragsdill. They had simply negotiated to get what they wanted.


    With everything settled, Mrs. Ragsdill naturally had no objections.


    “I didn’t expect you to be so reasonable. But it seems you’ve made Maria a little too bold,” Mrs. Ragsdill remarked, her demeanor changing from the caring mother she portrayed at the hospital to someone unrecognizable.


    “Rather than saying I’ve made Maria like this, it’s more urate to say that you’ve turned Maria into this,” Jane retorted without wasting any words, and signed her name on the agreement.


    Mrs. Ragsdill also swiftly signed her part of the agreement.


    The assistant came over to collect the agreement. “Boss, are we really holding a press conference at this time? Ourpany’s performance has been greatly affected recently, and it’s because you’ve been mentally unstable. Many employees have left as a result.”


    She was worried that holding a press conference now might adversely affect theirpany’s interests.


    Jane shook her head lightly. “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”


    Half an hourter, the press conference was held downstairs, attracting the attention of numerous journalists.


    In less than half a day, the area outside thepany was swarmed with journalists.


    The security organized the journalists and ushered them into the lobby, arranging everyone neatly.


    Jane and Mrs. Ragsdill slowly descended from upstairs and stood amidst the crowd.


    “I believe everyone already knows what happened. I won’t say much here,” Jane said,cking the mood to speak further, her mind focused on the two children.


    Now there were four children.


    Mrs. Ragsdill, expecting Jane to offer some exnations, eagerly waited for Jane’s remarks but was disappointed by Jane’s nomittal response.


    That responsibility fell on Mrs. Ragsdill to exin to the reporters.


    “Before we proceed, I want to rify something. The premature birth of Jane’s children was not caused by me, nor do I have any connection to it,” Mrs. Ragsdill dered.


    The reporters couldn’t stay seated after hearing this. They stood up and began questioning, “But so many people saw it happen. It was clearly you who pushed Jane, leading to her fall. Aren’t you the one to me for all of this?”N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    Unable to contain herself upon hearing this, Mrs. Ragsdill began loudly exining to the reporters, “It was just a misunderstanding between us, and we’ve already resolved it. Let’s let this misunderstanding dissipate. Don’t dwell on it too much.”


    With just a few words, Mrs. Ragsdill brushed off the grievances and harm Jane had suffered.


    Jane, listening nearby, couldn’t help but smile.


    “Enough talking. It’s not useful. Let’s give more time to everyone,” Jane stepped forward to stop Mrs. Ragsdill from speaking further and had the staff mute the microphone.


    Seeing that the two had reconciled, the reporters refrained from asking further questions, as they didn’t want to offend Jane.


    After asking two or three unrted questions, the press conference concluded hastily.


    Patrick stood in front of the television, observing Jane’s expression and Mrs. Ragsdill’s demeanor. He furrowed his brows, feeling perplexed, and immediately called his secretary.


    “Find out what happened at Jane’spany.”


    Jane couldn’t have reconciled with Mrs. Ragsdill so quickly, especially considering how deeply Jane was hurt by Mrs. Ragsdill’s actions. How could things have changed so drastically in just a day?


    Shortly afterward, the secretary investigated and reported back.


    “It seems there was a deal involving the blood donation for the two children’s surgery, possibly with Mrs. Ragsdill. The two children are now safe.”


    Hearing this, Patrick suddenly realized. He regretted not being by Jane’s side sooner, leaving her to face so much on her own.


    “Immediatelypile all thepany’s business records. Anything rted to theirpany, hand it over to Jane for handling,” Patrick instructed, wanting to make amends for Jane’s losses in his own way.


    The secretary hurried off to carry out the orders. Patrick sat in his chair, his gaze fixed on the photo of the two people on the desk. It was a photo taken when they had just gotten married, depicting the journey they had been through together, enduring so much pain. Yet now, a small incident threatened to deepen their misunderstandings.
