The nurses and doctors were visibly frightened. They nervously advised Patrick, “Mr. Pansy, say something that will give Miss Dillon the will to live. As for the rest, we can discuss it after she comes down!”
“Patrick, if you say anything, we’re done!” Jane, with an icy expression, spoke ruthlessly.
The nurse nearby looked displeased, “Miss North, this is a human life. Can you bear to let her die like this?”
“Should I just let her take away my fiancé like this?” Jane retorted unapologetically.
The nurse was left speechless by Jane’s reply.
Candice, standing there in a daze, hadn’t expected Jane to be so tough.
She clenched her fists secretly, thinking Jane was provoking her!
Humph, she must win!
Candice gritted her teeth, preparing to move closer to the edge, giving Patrick the maximum stimulation.
She didn’t believe Patrick could watch her fall!
After all, she was Candy!
The girl who saved him eight years ago!
Even if Patrick didn’t love her romantically, there was still a debt of gratitude!
Thinking of this, Candice took a deep breath, moved closer to the edge again, tears welling up, “Patrick, I’m sorry. I don’t want to burden you anymore. I hope in the next life, you will sincerely love me, only me.”
Seeing Candice preparing to fall, Patrick took a step forward, “Candy, come down.”
“No, I can’t. I don’t want to make things difficult for you, Patrick. I don’t want to affect your relationship with Miss North because of me.” Candice bit her pale lip, crying so pitifully that anyone who saw her couldn’t bear it.
Patrick frowned, his deep gaze shifting to Jane. His lips lifted slightly, “Jane, let Candy go. She only has a month left. Let’s postpone our engagement and spend this time together.”
“Spend time with her?” Jane sneered, raising an eyebrow. “Patrick, you’re really something. Candice cries a little, threatens suicide, and you waver? Or is it that you never forgot about her?
After all, she’s Candy, the one you’ve been thinking about. In fact, you’ve always liked her.
If that’s the case, why did you even get engaged to me? You’re not worthy!”
“Jane, can’t you stop being unreasonable?” Patrick’s handsome face tightened, his gaze with a hint of coldness.
“Unreasonable? Patrick, you really have it coming!” Jane glared at Patrick, “Since you only have Candy in your heart, fine, let’s break up!”
Seeing Jane and Patrick quarreling fiercely, Candice had a subtle triumphant expression.
It seemed her trick was quite effective.
Patrick didn’t have absolutely no feelings for her.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be arguing with Jane because of her.
Moreover, with so many people watching, everyone could see how heartless Jane was. Public opinion would crush this shameless bitch!
Thinking of this, Candice hid her smugness and spoke pitifully, “Patrick, I’m sorry. Don’t fight because of me…”
Before Candice could finish speaking, Jane’s lips curled into a scornful smile. She sneered, “Candice, you wanted to jump, right? Then jump already!”
Candice’s face changed.
Did this shameless bitch Jane really want to force her to jump?
Jane pointed at Candice, speaking coldly, “What’s the matter? Scared? Or perhaps, you were just acting the whole time?”
“No, it’s not… Miss North, I know you hate me. Don’t worry, I’ll be gone soon, and then Patrick will only have you in his heart…” Candice wiped away tears, her gaze fixed on Patrick.
She was gambling that Patrick would never watch her jump; he would surely come to save her.
“Well, thank you,” Jane sneered.
As her words fell, Candice, standing on the edge of the rooftop, suddenly screamed. Candice’s slender body plummeted, and screams echoed from below.
Jane was momentarily stunned.
Candice actually jumped???
This woman was really going all out!
In that moment of falling, Candice’s mind went blank. She had just slipped a bit; who knew she would really fall!
She didn’t want to die!!
Frustrated, Candice continued to fall rapidly.
With a thud, she landed on an air cushion, losing consciousness.
The doctors and nurses on the rooftop, thinking Candice had really jumped, looked at each other for a few seconds before rushing downstairs, leaving Patrick and Jane.
“Nice performance. I’ll consider giving you a role in my next film,” Jane smirked, looking at Patrick with amusement.
Patrick raised an eyebrow, “I’ll think about it.”
“What about Morton?” Jane glanced around.
Patrick coughed, and Morton quickly appeared with a phone. He wasn’t intentionally eavesdropping on their flirtation; Jane had tasked him with monitoring Candice.
Morton wanted to say that as a single guy, watching his boss show affection every day made him envious!
“Did you capture everything?” Jane asked Morton.
Morton nodded.
“Post it on Twitter late at night, make sure to include our names as hashtags. It’s guaranteed to go viral,” Jane instructed, raising her chin with a mischievous glint in her eyes. “The trending topics will surely be ‘Jane, the third party, forces Patrick to lose his white moonlight.’ Fantastic!”
“Aren’t you afraid of being attacked and cursed?” Patrick rubbed her messy hair, his words filled with indulgence.
“I’ve been cursed before.”
Jane had planned everything. Candice just wanted to escalate the situation, using moral public opinion against her. Jane would fan the flames from behind, support her in making it a big deal. When it reached its peak, she would expose Candice’s true colors, crush her, and the woman would never stir up trouble again.
Her reputation would even be enhanced, with netizens feeling a huge sense of guilt. Jane would take advantage of this momentum to release Star Entertainment’s new movie…
“Let’s go down; it’s windy up here. The show must go on,” Patrick took advantage of Jane’s daze and unexpectedly kissed her cheek.
Jane glared at him, “Shameless!”
Patrick chuckled, and the two walked down together.
Morton, left standing in place, was dumbfounded.
These two kept showing affection in front of him, a perpetually single guy. Was this really okay…
The scene at the hospital was chaotic. When Candice unexpectedly fell, the police arrived in time to place safety cushions below. Doctors were rushing to provide first aid to the unconscious Candice.
A group of reporters also arrived, hastily capturing Candice’s plight. They witnessed Jane, full of anger, running out of the hospital, with Patrick following, exuding a chilling aura.
