Chapter 98 The Annoying Fourth Master Swan
In the CEO''s office of Lawrence Enterprise.
"What kind of scheme is this!" Jeanne kept quiet as Alexander said, "I''ve already married my
daughter to him. Why can''t he provide our family some support?"
"I''m just worried that Brother-inw will refuse. It won''t be good if it affects our rtionship." Joshua
hurriedly exined.
"That will depend on Jasmine," Jeanne said.
She pushed the responsibility onto Jasmine.
If Jasmine yed her role well, then great. Otherwise, she would be deemed useless.
"Why did you drag Jasmine into..."
"That''s enough." Alexander interrupted Joshua and said. "I know how to resolve this matter."
"General Manager, regarding the matter with Swanhaven Bank, I hope that our ns won''t be made
known in advance. If Eden Swan learns of our ns, he woulde up with excuses to reject us.
It''s not that I doubt Eden''s character, but we must remain wary."
"Of course. I''m not that stupid," Alexander said disdainfully.
"I''m not doubting you, Dad. I''m just afraid..." Jeanne nced at Joshua.
Joshua''s expression immediately changed. "What do you mean? Do you think I''ll report this?!"
"I didn''t say anything." Jeanne shrugged and smiled.
Joshua was furious.
Alexander snapped at Joshua, "Joshua Lawrence, you''d better behave yourself. If you tell anyone
about this, I''ll break your legs and make sure you never step foot into the Lawrence Enterprise
again!"
Joshua could only grit his teeth and nod.
"That''s all. You''re dismissed," Alexander ordered.
"Understood."
Jeanne and Joshua walked out of Alexander''s office.
The two of them entered the elevator.
"What Dad just said was not a joke," Jeanne reminded as she pressed the button.
Joshua red at her. "What do you mean?"
"I''m afraid you didn''t understand, so I''ll repeat myself." Jeanne enunciated each word clearly. "Don''t
leak the n. We''re the only people who know that we''ll get Swanhaven Bank to give us an
interest-free loan. Dad and I definitely won''t tell anyone else. You''re the only one."
"Jeanne Lawrence!" Joshua was furious.
"You''ll regret it if you were kicked out of the Lawrence Enterprise."
"Are you mocking me on purpose?"
"Think what you will." Jeanne smiled at Joshua.
The elevator arrived and Jeanne walked out first.
Joshua punched the elevator door angrily.
He really wanted to strangle Jeanne.
Why didn''t his father beat this woman to death back then?
What right did she have to show off in front of him?
He was the real grandson and only heir of the Lawrences. What right did Jeanne have to unt in
front of him?
He must kill her! He must!
After Jeanne and Joshua left, Alexander also left the office and returned to the Lawrences''
residence.
Alexander reported everything to Jonathan. He was already used to relying on his father for such
matters.
Jonathan Lawrence replied without hesitation, "Do as Jeanne says."
"Does that mean that the Swans will fund the additional 200 million yuan?"
"Isn''t this why we married Jasmine to the Swans?" Jonathan said straightforwardly. "What''s the
point if we can''t get any benefits from such a marriage?"
"I''m worried that we might offend the Swans if Eden is unhappy."
"That''ll depend on Jasmine. If she can please the Swans, they won''t be offended."
"But it''s a business matter..."
"Your biggest w is yourck of courage and decisiveness. Jeanne is so determined, yet you''re still
so timid. Alex, you''ve disappointed me." Jonathan said.
"Alright dad. I''ll do as you say." Alexander Lawrence did not say anything more.
He was unwilling to admit that he was not capable enough.
"As we''ve seen through this contract negotiation, Jeanne is very capable. Make good use of her
and the Lawrence Enterprise will prosper," Jonathan Lawrence said in a serious tone. "You
should''ve learned from the incident with Jeanne''s mother. You have to hold on to Lawrence
Enterprise."
"Don''t worry. In the past, I was negligent towards Jeanne''s mother. I''ve learned from my mistakes. I
will never make the same mistake with Jeanne."
Jonathan nodded but didn''t forget to remind him. "Let Joshua learn from Jeanne in secret."
"I will."
Alexander left Jonathan''s room and headed back to his room.
At that moment, Jenifer Fabian was doing yoga in her room. When she saw him, she quickly stood
up. "Alex, why are you home so early today?"
"Call Jasmine and ask her and Eden toe over for dinner tonight."
"Why did you suddenly ask for them toe over?" Jenifer was surprised.
"Don''t ask about anything else. Get the kitchen to prepare more food."
"Okay." Jenifer did not ask further.
She hurriedly called Jasmine.
After a while, Jasmine replied that Eden had agreed and that they woulde straight after work.
At 6 p.m.
Eden and Jasmine appeared at the Lawrences''s main courtyard.
Jeanne received Alexander''s message and got off work on time.
The moment she returned, she bumped into Eden and Jasmine.
Jasmine pretended to be friendly and called out to Jeanne, "Sister, you''re back?"
"You guys are here too?"
"Mom called me and Eden toe back for dinner. She said Dad missed us," Jasmine said
deliberately.
She was deliberately showing off Alexander''s love for her.
Jeanne smiled.
''You''ll know what Alexander is thinking soon.''
Jeanne said, "Help yourselves. I''ll head back to my room."
Then she went upstairs.
Eden looked at Jeanne''s back coldly.
It was not an illusion. Ever since she returned from overseas, Jeanne had never looked him in the
eye.
It was the same at this moment.
He gritted his teeth.
''Don''t think that you can really show off just because you''re doing slightly better than me.''
One day, he would make her regret her actions.
"Eden."
Eden Swan returned to his senses.
"Why do you keep looking at Jeanne...?" Jasmine Lawrence said anxiously.
"What are you saying?" Eden''s tone was slightly displeased. "If I had any thoughts of her still, would
I be marrying you?"
"I just-"
"1 can''t stand her disrespecting you." Eden made up an excuse. "I''m thinking how I should teach
her a lesson."
When Jasmine heard Eden''s words, she immediately broke into a smile. "I knew you definitely
wouldn''t like Jeanne. She''s slept with countless men while she was overseas. She''s just a dirty
wh*re. That bastard George probably doesn''t even know who she''s been with..."
"Enough." Eden interrupted her. "Don''t let your father hear you talking about Jeanne like that. It''ll
ruin your image."
"Okay." Jasmine held Eden''s hand obediently and walked into the main hall.
Eden suddenly felt annoyed by Jasmine''s intimacy.
There was a period of time when he really enjoyed all sorts of admiration and ttery from Jasmine.
It gave him a sense of achievement as a man. It wasn''t like back then, when he was still with
Jeanne Lawrence, where he was always the one giving in to her. At this moment, he felt a little tired
of it all...
He hid his emotions and walked in with Jasmine.
Jeanne returned to her room.
George was using theputer in the room. When he saw Jeanne, he quickly closed the screen.
Jeanne Lawrence paid no attention to it.
She said, "Wash your hands and prepare to go downstairs for dinner."
"Okay." George climbed off theputer chair and went to the bathroom.
Jeanne looked at George''s small figure and got up to follow him.
As she watched George wash his hands, she said, "Miles ising to South Hampton."
"What''s he here for?"
"To be your designated driver."
"Why?" George looked confused.
"I need to work, so I''ll be busy most of the time. I don''t feelfortable leaving you alone," Jeanne
said. "The kidnapping by Fourth Master Swan will never happen again."
"He didn''t kidnap me," George exined. "I volunteered to go with him."
Jeanne frowned.
"A few of the older boys bullied me. He saved me. I didn''t tell you that because I didn''t want you to
develop a fondness for Fourth Master Swan." George blushed as he spoke.
"Who bullied you?" Jeanne''s eyes narrowed.
In an instant, the atmosphere changed.
"Fourth Master Swan has already taught them a lesson. Those guys who bullied me before are now
my underlings."

"Actually, Fourth Master Swan isn''t that annoying," George said softly.
Jeanne''s eyes flickered slightly.
Once in a while... He wasn''t annoying.
"But that''s if he doesn''t take you away." George looked at Jeanne and suddenly said angrily, "He
told me that you''re his and he''s only lent you to me."
Jeanne was stunned.
In fact, her heart... skipped a beat.
"So he''s still annoying. Very annoying," George concluded.
Jeanne smiled.
It was only asionally that her heart would skip a beat.
But most times, he was still annoying.
