“Are all the things you said true?” Jane asked.


    Patrick raised three fingers and began to swear, “If I speak a single lie, let me have no resting ce in death.”


    At that moment, Jane chose to believe him. The two of them embraced tightly, as if reuniting after a long separation. On this night, they resolved all their conflicts and misunderstandings.


    However, the road ahead would be even more treacherous.


    The next day, as soon as Jane woke up, she saw news about the Pansy family on her phone. Each piece of news was like an explosive revtion.


    She hurriedly pushed Patrick aside and scrolled through all the information on her phone.


    The news was all about Mike wanting to sever ties with Patrick and Beatrice also cutting off rtions with him.


    Even the Pansy family’s conglomerate was on the verge of splitting into two.


    For apany still in crisis, this was far from good news.


    “Did you have a conflict with them? Your grandfather has never been so ruthless.” As far as Jane knew, Mike had always been generous towards Patrick and wouldn’t do something so cruel. There must be some hidden reason behind all this.


    But Patrick, as if he had already anticipated this situation, tightly held Jane’s hand. “If I lose everything, would you still be willing to stay by my side?”


    Jane didn’t hesitate and nodded. With those words, Patrick felt as if a huge burden had been lifted from his shoulders.


    “I’ll go to thepany now and handle these matters. Don’t worry, I will achieve the best oue.”


    Upon hearing this, Jane still had some concerns. After all, these matters were not to be taken lightly and would be difficult to resolve easily.


    “I’ll go with you. We’ll face it together.”


    The two of them arrived at thepany building together. Many reporters were waiting for Patrick’s arrival, as if they were watching a spectacle. Jane was the first to get out of the car, and the reporters immediately surrounded her.


    Meanwhile, Patrick took the elevator in the basement and went straight to the upper floors.


    “Why are you here, Jane? Did you hear about the upheaval in the Pansy family? Are you here to get a share of the spoils?”


    These reporters seemed to have no boundaries and could say anything.


    “Thepany has already fallen apart. Did you ever consider the current situation when you decided to acquire it?”


    Jane waved her hand at them, not wanting to respond to so many questions or give them answers she didn’t know herself.


    “I have no way and no right to answer what kind ofpany the Pansy family is. However, Patrick will give everyone a satisfactory exnation.”Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    Upon hearing this, the reporters started asking about the rtionship between the two of them.


    “So, does that mean you and Patrick have reconciled?”


    Jane no longer answered their questions and, surrounded by security, went back upstairs to find Patrick in a meeting with the shareholders.


    As their business partner, she naturally had the right to attend the meeting.


    The shareholders had their own opinions, and some had already started to withdraw their investments.


    “With such a huge mistake, it’s better to dissolve thepany early. I’ve known for a long time that ourpany has been losing money. Let’s liquidate our shares and not get involved in your family’s internal struggle.” These people were only concerned about their own interests andpletely disregarded Patrick’s safety. They had never spoken such words when Patrick was making them money.


    “Exactly! It’s better to return our money early so that we can all go our separate ways.”


    Patrick remained silent, not answering anyone’s questions, which Jane couldn’t tolerate anymore.


    “When thepany was making money under the group’s leadership, did anyone withdraw their investments? But now that the group is facing a small crisis, everyone is so fearful and anxious. Don’t you believe in the CEO at all?”


    Patrick nced at Jane gratefully, but he didn’t want her to intervene further.


    “Weren’t you nning to acquire thepany as well? Why aren’t you doing it now?” These old folkspletely disregarded Jane’s words and had no intention of listening to her.


    “I have my own ns. As for the current situation of the group, I believe everyone is already aware. Instead of kicking someone when they’re down, why don’t we all work together to help the group ovee this crisis? Maybe Patrick will be very grateful to everyone?” Jane’s words didn’t resonate with the crowd. They had lost faith in Patrick and the rtionships within his family.


    “To put it bluntly, Patrick was able to sustain thepany because of Mike’s influence. Now that Mike has severed ties with him, he can’t handle such argepany on his own. I advise you to dismiss your thoughts early.”


    The shareholders didn’t believe in Patrick’s abilities at all and attributed everything to Mike’s vision.


    Patrick remained silent for a while, listening to everyone’s words. He had already made his judgment and extended his hand to silence them.


    “I already know what everyone is thinking. Those who want to leave the group can settle their own shares in the finance department and have no further involvement. Those who want to stay and apany me through this difficult time, I will definitely be grateful to you in the future.”


    These words made everyone in the room whisper to each other, unsure about what to do next.


    Jane was the first to step forward and addressed the crowd, “Although mypany is small, it has gained some reputation in this city. So, I’m willing to give up 50% of mypany’s shares and let Patrick handle it.” Jane’s move surprised everyone, as they knew that she and Patrick were no longer in a marital rtionship. The intertwining of interests at this moment left them puzzled.


    “CEO, can you give us a firm assurance that you can truly revive thepany?”


    They knew that Mike’s methods and capabilities were not to be taken lightly.


    “If you’re willing to believe in me, I would naturally be grateful.” Patrick’s response remained unchanged.


    One shareholder stood up and walked to the center of the room, saying, “Instead of wasting time here, it’s better to focus our efforts elsewhere.”


    This shareholder had been with thepany for several years, and his rtionship with Patrick had always been good. However, being close to Mike, he naturally sided with him.
