“You’re telling me all this, but do you have the right to manage Patrick’s company?” Jane could only say these words forcefully. Patrick’s aunt looked down on Jane, having long been prepared for her.
“Can’t you see? The person with the authority to allocate Patrick’s assets has authorized me to temporarily manage the company,” she said.
“I advise you to stay away from this company. If you come again, don’t blame me for being impolite,” she added.
When Jane saw the authorization agreement, she was speechless. It was written by Beatrice, and her seal was stamped on it.
Jane knew that such a document wouldn’t be forged, and there was no point in forging it. She just didn’t expect Patrick’s relatives to take this step ahead of time.
“Fine, there’s nothing more to discuss. I don’t have time to waste with you,” Jane said.
Patrick’s aunt and uncle entered the company directly, leaving Jane with no choice but to leave helplessly. In the car, April spoke to Jane.
“It seems like we don’t have any other options. We’ll have to calm down for a while. They are ruthless,” April said.
“They used such tactics ahead of us, indicating that they had planned these things in advance,” she continued. Jane listened to April’s words, realizing that it was too late to do anything now. She could only reluctantly accept this reality and wait for another opportunity to strike back.
“Since the company can’t be merged, let’s focus on the concert. Continue practicing in the following days.”
“I’ll focus on finding a venue. As soon as I find one, I’ll have the rest of the team start organizing and preparing. It won’t affect our previous plans,” Jane said.
Jane and April had previously agreed to hold the concert within two months. If they acted quickly, it would be best to accomplish it within a month. Unfortunately, unforeseen circumstances had caused the concert to be delayed.
However, if they restarted promptly, they could still meet the original timeline they had set. After all, they had already initiated some promotion and publicity efforts. They just needed to notify the fans about the specific date, venue, and ticket sales methods.
If they didn’t hold the concert now, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
A few days had passed, and Beatrice had taken the two children away. Despite her ill treatment of Jane, she realized that it wasn’t suitable for the children to stay there at this time. After all, the children belonged to Melissa.
Moreover, Beatrice was now alone, and having the two children with her might bring some hope for the future.
Jane didn’t dwell on these matters. Every day, she immersed herself in work, partly to expedite April’s concert.
Beatrice called the nanny over and gave her specific instructions.
“These two children are my everything now. If anything happens to them, I won’t spare you,” Beatrice warned. “If you perform well, I’ll reward you. Pay extra attention to them during this period.”
Beatrice thought for a moment and felt the need to give further instructions.
If one day Jane came to cause trouble again and saw the children, she might even take them away. Beatrice didn’t want to see the children becoming victims of someone’s anger.
“I don’t care who wants to see the children. They must have my permission. No one is allowed to approach the children without my orders. Do you understand?” Beatrice emphasized.
The nanny couldn’t possibly object to this. She nodded repeatedly, well aware of who was paying her salary.
“Alright, you can go now. If anything happens, inform me immediately. Don’t make any decisions without my approval.”
After the nanny left, Beatrice sat there contemplating things. She never expected that she would have such a day. She hadn’t felt any affection for these children before. It was just that, relatively speaking, she preferred the two children in front of her.
But now, things were different. She looked at these two children and felt that it was her responsibility to take care of them.
“I guess I’ve repaid you. You helped me with something, and I’m taking care of your children. They will grow up well,” Beatrice muttered to herself. These days, she hadn’t contacted Mike. He was still recuperating in the hospital and had no desire to see her.
The hospital staff had also been informed in advance, knowing that Jane hadn’t had any contact with Mike during these days. This was good news for Beatrice. She was afraid that after meeting Jane, Mike would cause some irreversible things.
The current situation was the best outcome for her. The company was now under the control of Patrick’s aunt, and she didn’t have to worry about the details anymore. She just needed to stay at home and be at ease.
With the joint efforts of April and Jane, a venue had been rented, and renovations were underway in full swing. In a few more days, the venue would be ready. Jane’s emotions gradually returned to normal amidst her busy schedule.
She had hidden that touch of sadness deep inside her heart. Jane used work as her motivation to keep going and continue with her life.
However, she was unaware that there were rumors circulating wildly on the internet recently. She didn’t have time to go online and check these things.
When she returned to the company, the employees didn’t dare to gossip in front of her. So even though the matter was spreading on the internet, she was completely oblivious to it.
In the evening, April deliberately returned to the villa early and prepared a delicious meal to improve Jane’s mood. These past few days, Jane had become even thinner. Although April felt sorry for her, she also knew that the concert was the priority during this period.
It was not only crucial for April but also for Jane’s company.
Moreover, at least now Jane had returned to normal. She could find things to do, which was a good sign.
“Should I tell Jane about the things on the internet? These people are so annoying, spreading such rumors,” April wondered. She needed to search for some information online, and while doing so, she discovered the circulating rumors that were now gaining momentum.
April felt that if she told Jane, it would undoubtedly be another blow for her. But if she didn’t say anything, she would feel extremely outraged.
Although she made a few anonymous comments, it was useless.
