Chapter 153: Don''t Look at Me Twice
"Why?" Osborn''s eyes darkened instantly, and he asked urgently, "You and Patrick have a contract
rtionship, right? Didn''t you say that you don''t like him and will soon break off the engagement
with him? Did he force you?"
Seeing Osborn so excited, Jane shook her head helplessly. "What? Do you think anyone can force
me?"
"Then why..." Osborn''s face showed some mncholy and hurt.

Indeed, ording to Jane''s personality, no one could force her to do anything, including Patrick.
So... Jane epted Patrick because...
Jane pursed her lips and gave Osborn an answer. "Because I fell in love with Patrick. So I agreed to
his pursuit."
"No, this is impossible!" After hearing Jane''s words, Osborn was full of shock and disbelief.
Jane had clearly said that the engagement between him and Patrick was only arranged by their
grandfathers. She didn''t have any feelings for Patrick at all. How could she fall in love with him?!
"In France during these days," Jane exined,"I got to know Patrick again. Especially after we
crashed into the sea together when our ne went down - he risked his own safety to save me. He
deserves my trust for life."
"Jane, this is not love at all."Osborn held onto Jane''s shoulders with both hands."You were just
moved by what he did for you. Moving doesn''t equal love. I can do whatPatrick did foryou too. Why
don''tyou choose me instead?"
"Osborn, don''t be like this."Jane gently pushed away Osborn."We are not suitable."
In Osbon''s gaze was nothing but a look of injury."Jane, don''t you know thatPatrick loves Candyin
his heart?"
Candy...
For some reason, Jane''s heart sank.
She frowned slightly as she spoke,"CandyandPatrick are already in the past tense. Now, the person
whom Patricks loves is me."
"Jane, you''re deceiving yourself. Do you have confidence? If one day, Candy suddenly appears,
canyou guarantee thatPatrick won''t choose Candy?"
Osborne''s words were like a hammer hitting on Janes'' heart, making her feel very ufortable.
She had thought about it before - Candy might still be alive, and might suddenly appear someday.
But, she had already made up her mind when she decided to be withPatrick. She would make sure
thatPatric lovedherpletely, and there would be no room left in his heart for anyone else –
including Candy.
Thinking of this, Jane nodded firmly,"Yes, I am confident."
"What?" Patrick''s expression turned dark as he heard Florence''s words. "Jane was with Osborn?"
Florence nodded, a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. "Yes, they were together at the Pansy Group
entrance. Erica said that Jane was trying to seduce him."
Patrick clenched his fists, feeling a surge of anger rise within him. He had trusted Janepletely
and now it seemed like she had betrayed him.
"Where is she now?" he asked through gritted teeth.
"I saw her get into Osborn''s car," Erica replied before Florence could say anything.
Patrick didn''t waste another moment and stormed towards his car parked nearby. He needed to find
Jane and confront her about what had happened.
As he drove through the streets of the city, his mind raced with thoughts of betrayal and hurt. How
could Jane do this to him? Had their rtionship meant nothing to her?
Finally, he spotted Osborn''s car parked outside a fancy restaurant downtown. Without hesitation,
Patrick got out of his own car and marched towards them.
"Jane!" he called out as soon as he reached them.
Jane looked up from where she was sitting with Osborn inside the restaurant and paled when she
saw Patrick standing there looking furious.
(Note: This is just an example trantion that may not be perfect or final.)
"What does this woman Jane want? She just agreed to Patrick''s pursuit, promising to be with him,
but then turned around and fell into Osborn''s arms?"
Patrick''s face grew colder.
Florence continued to add fuel to the fire. "They look like they''re in a romantic rtionship. Patrick,
did you break up with Jane? You two were only in a contractual marriage anyway. There''s nothing
wrong with Jane being with Osborn."
"Florence, I''ll say it again. I don''t want to hear any gossip about Jane," Patrick said calmly but firmly.
He was angry, but he would not allow anyone to speak ill of Jane or criticize her.
Florence persisted. "Patrick, why are you so good to Jane? She doesn''t deserve it."
"That''s none of your business," Patrick replied coldly as if his eyes had been frosted over.
With that said, he ignored Florence and left without another word.
Watching Patrick walk away coldly and indifferently made Florence feel very aggrieved. "Patrick,
you''ll regret this someday!" she shouted after him.
...
Jane sat in Osborn''s car while he drove silently with his hands tightly gripping the steering wheel;
the atmosphere was somewhat awkward between them.
Although she had been busy with Pansy Group these past few days, she still paid attention to Star
Entertainment as well.
Osborn had transferred many foreign businesses back home and invested in several heavyweight
movies one after another which caused a great sensation in the entertainment industry.
"You''re doing great," Jane praised sincerely.
Osborn had a talent for this kind of thing; otherwise she wouldn''t have invested in Star
Entertainment initially.
Osborn gave a bitter smile. "Even if I do well enough for you won''t give me more than just one
nce."
