This caught Marco’s attention, and he went to the control room to investigate the surveillance at the entrance. He found that April had entered a coffee shop.
This made Marco even more suspicious because April never had a habit of drinking coffee.
So he followed the surveillance and found this coffee shop. Unlike usual, it was empty.
This immediately triggered Marco’s nerves. He knew something must have happened.
“I am Maria’s brother,” Tristian said, raising an eyebrow as he looked at the two people in front of him. His intuition told him that they were not simple people.
“What are you talking about? Maria doesn’t have a brother,” said Marco, who knew everything about his company’s employees as their director general.
“What!”
April heard this news and immediately realized that she had been deceived.
“Who are you? Why did you trick me into coming here?”
April was still a bit shy, stuttering as she spoke for a long time and still unable to look directly at the man in front of her.
After speaking, she hid behind Marco.
“Heh…” Tristian let out a cold snort, not giving any response. He knew that the situation was exposed and directly walked past the two of them, ready to leave.
“You stay right there!”
Little did he know that Marco behind him called out to him, his gaze sharp. “Who exactly are you, and why did you call April?”
“You’ll find out later.”
The man in front of him only replied with this sentence in a faint tone, then turned and left.
Marco watched the man’s figure, gritting his teeth, feeling a bit upset. He turned around and saw April hiding behind him, her eyes slightly reddened.
“Are you okay?”
He bent down and comforted her, saying, “Don’t be afraid. In the future, don’t easily trust strangers.”
Marco gently stroked April’s head, and as April lifted her head, she felt an inexplicable feeling…
On the other side, at Florence’s home.
Since the severe decline in the family’s stocks and the inability to contact Beatrice, Florence was on the verge of a breakdown.
Seeing the increasingly destitute situation at home, and now having to rely on her mother to sell jewelry to make ends meet, her self-esteem was hurting.
She had never lacked in her basic needs since she was little, and this was the first time she encountered such a situation.
In the midst of her sadness, she suddenly received a text message.
She opened it and widened her eyes in the next second.
Someone had transferred one hundred thousand dollars into her account, which undoubtedly was the last straw to save the Doyle family!
Just then, she received another text from an unknown number.
“Do whatever it takes to sabotage Patrick and Jane’s relationship. Once it’s done, I will give you one million.”
Florence stared at her phone, stunned. She thought this was from the person who had just sent her the money.
“Who are you?”
Florence sent a message back, but after a long time, her message seemed to disappear into thin air, with no response.
She dialed the phone number, but it turned out to be a disposable number that had become invalid after sending the message.
Unable to reach the other person, Florence decided not to pursue it further.
One hundred thousand couldn’t sustain a company for long, so if the company were to continue, it would still rely on this person’s one million.
But thinking about what Patrick had done to her in the past made her hesitate to take any further action.
She closed her eyes, and outside the door, her father’s resentful voice could be heard. She couldn’t bear to continue living in such days!
Holding the phone tightly, Florence sat at the dressing table. Since the last incident, she had rarely dressed herself up.
She put on makeup to resemble Jane, then changed into the same canary yellow dress Jane had worn last time.
Their figures were almost identical, making it difficult to distinguish between the two from behind.
Florence curled up her lips. She hated Patrick for turning her into what she was now.
Then, her expression twisted once again. This time, she would make Patrick pay the price!
Florence arrived at Patrick’s company building. Having learned her lesson, she didn’t enter on her own but stood on the steps, waiting for Patrick to arrive.
Sure enough, when the receptionist saw Florence’s figure from behind, mistaking her for Jane, she immediately called the president’s office and informed him that Jane had arrived.
Patrick wasted no time and rushed down without even putting on his coat.
He walked straight out of the company’s main entrance, seeing Florence’s back, which resembled Jane’s. His eyes were filled with tenderness as he slowly approached, intending to reach out and embrace Florence around her waist. Suddenly, a scent as captivating as Jane’s rushed towards him.
“Who are you?”
Patrick kept stepping back, and when the person in front turned around, it was Florence!
“It’s me. Did you forget about me so quickly?” Florence blinked her false eyelash-covered eyes, making Patrick’s stomach churn.
“You dare to come here.”
Patrick said indifferently, turned his face away, refusing to even look at Florence.
Florence grinned widely, then without waiting for Patrick’s reaction, she lifted her gown and ran off without looking back.
Patrick’s face grew dark as he watched the figure that resembled Jane’s receding into the distance. He couldn’t figure out what that crazy woman was thinking.
Just then, Jane received an email on her phone.
She opened it and immediately saw Florence’s face in the video. She was standing on top of Patrick’s company building, her face beaming like a woman in love.
Just then, Patrick, who was behind her, slowly walked towards her, his eyes filled with tenderness. From that angle, it looked like the two of them were tightly embracing each other.
Jane’s pupils contracted, it was Florence again!
In the next moment, the trending topics on Twitter exploded once again, featuring the video that Florence had just released.
Jane’s face darkened. She hadn’t even finished dealing with Tristian’s matter, and now she had to deal with Florence’s!
The credibility of this video was self-evident. Jane sneered contemptuously. The angle of this video was too incriminating. If one didn’t look carefully, they would indeed believe that the two of them were having an affair behind her back.
But Jane didn’t have the time to play around with Florence now. She immediately had someone start investigating the surveillance cameras at the entrance. As expected, as soon as Patrick saw Florence, the two of them parted ways.
The video of Florence was obviously maliciously edited. Otherwise, how could they capture the faces of the individuals so clearly, clearly indicating who they were to the internet users!
Jane didn’t hold back either. She directly posted the surveillance video online, accompanied by the caption, “Copying someone’s style just to seduce their husband?”
Once this video was released, public opinion shifted once again.
This undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to Florence, as Jane directly slapped her in the face.
At this moment, netizens criticized Florence, as the last time it was her who caused trouble, and now she had popped up again!
