Jane Gardner didn’t know how she got through this night, she didn’t sleep for the whole night, she just hugged Xin Ruyan, fortunately Xin Ruyan was also well-behaved and preferred to be close to her, in her arms, she slept very peacefully.
“Miss, what do you want to eat for breakfast, I’ll go make it for you.” The maid woke up in the morning and saw that Jane Gardner was long awake, she was about to dive into the kitchen with a guilty look in her eyes.
“No need, I don’t have an appetite, take care of it if you wish, I shouldn’t be back today.” Jane Gardner said and put Sin Ruwan back in her room.
“Miss is going out? But those media reporters outside haven’t left, I’m afraid you can’t go.”
“I have something in mind.” Jane Gardner listened to the movement outside, she opened the door and walked towards the outside.
Everyone did not expect Jane Gardner to come out, those reporters who originally had breakfast in their hands were in a frenzy, they threw down their breakfast and carried cameras and microphones, swarming towards her.
“Miss Gardner, after this one night’s consideration, are you now going to give the public an explanation?”
“Mrs. Xin, have you made a choice, Mr. Irwin and Zhong Jinghao who is the one you really love?”
“Countess, I’m from the Royal Newspaper of Country Y, according to the latest news this morning, our new king, His Majesty Xia Zuo, has assumed the throne, Zhong Jinghao’s whereabouts are unknown, did he come to this country with you?”
Jane Gardner was unperturbed when faced with the first two questions, when she heard the third reporter’s question, her eyes flashed with a fluctuation.
Quickly, however, she gathered all of her emotions and raised her hand to stop the ensuing questions from more reporters.
“What you all want to know, I will give you all the answers today. But before I answer those questions of yours, I want to tell you a few things.”
Jane Gardner clenched her fists, and every word she was about to say in the next few moments carried irreparable devastation.
She didn’t have to think about it to realize what kind of condemnation and denunciation she’d be subjected to offline and online in an hour’s time.
“Firstly, every song I, Jane Gardner, have made since my debut has been plagiarized.”
When Jane Gardner said that, all the media reporters were silent for two seconds, and then, they clicked their pictures and asked more questions excitedly.
Jane Gardner ignored all the questions, her ears were loud, but in this moment, her heart was quiet.
She knew what she was going to do and knew that she had to do these things, there was no other choice.
“Secondly, every song that I, Jane Gardner, have sung since I started competing has also been a fake.”
“Miss Gardner, why are you suddenly announcing these things to the public? If all of your singing is fake, then who did you copy and who helped you fake your singing?”
Jane Gardner looked at the reporter who asked the question, she showed him a slight smile, the smile was bitter and firm, “Thirdly, the person I, Jane Gardner, really love is Zhong Jinghao, the reason why I got married and had children with Zachary Irwin was to each his own, all these years, I never loved him.”
She was clearly smiling, and her voice was clearly normal, but the tears, on the contrary, could not stop falling.
She raised her hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes while facing all the media reporters, “I’ve finished what I have to say.”
As the words fell, she squeezed out of the crowd with difficulty, then quickly got into a cab, and behind the car, there were hordes of reporters chasing after her.
“Where are you going, miss?” The cab driver didn’t recognize Jane Gardner, and he could tell that she was in a bad mood.
Jane Gardner gave the address of the villa in her name, and then dialed Zachary Irwin’s number.
Like yesterday, this call was answered by Gu Yiren.
“I’ve done what you asked, are you going to do what you promised me? I want to see him now!” Jane Gardner forced down the sourness in her throat, her voice feigning strength.
“Yes? I haven’t seen the news yet, there’s no rush. Soon, are you sure you want to see him, he’s undergoing hypnosis today oh, and while I can’t guarantee that he’ll suspect the contents of the hypnosis, I can guarantee that he’ll never remember the past.”
Gu Yiren was confident in her improved potion this time, she held Zhong Jinghao’s hand while moving her lips towards him.
She had already done hypnosis on Zhong Jinghao, now, Zhong Jinghao’s memory was only of her, Gu Yiren, and the lover he remembered was also her not Jane Gardner.
“I want to see! Gu Yiren, I did everything as you said, this is what you promised me, you must do it!” All of Jane Gardner’s emotions collapsed at this moment.
She shouted like crazy towards Gu Yiren on the other side of the phone, she had lost everything, all she wanted now was for Zachary Irwin to be safe.
Even if he didn’t remember himself, she still wanted him to be safe!
“Tsk, so excited, okay, since you want to meet, then let’s meet.” Gu Yiren’s voice contained a smile as she gave her cell phone to the bodyguard, while she herself wrapped her arms around Zhong Jinghao’s waist and embraced him to the death.
She knew that what she was getting now was fake, but even if it was fake, so what, Zhong Jinghao, this person, these eyes of his, were real!
She only wants him to stay by her side, even if he has no soul, only body!
Jane Gardner waited for a while, the cell phone video rang, she picked it up, only to see the video end, Zachary Irwin is lying on a sofa, and above him, is a dense wire connected to an instrument of some kind.
These instruments, she knew, were arranged by Yi Ren Gu to hypnotize Zachary Irwin.
“Qing, congratulations, the person you’ve gone through so much trouble and painstakingly trying to get, you’ve finally gotten it!” Jane Gardner clenched her teeth, she knew that Xiao Qing was in that room.
“But look at him, at this moment, is he the same person you once knew? Is it the once-flamboyant Zachary Irwin that you love, or is it the one in front of you who can’t do anything?”
Jane Gardner didn’t know what Kiyoshi was thinking, but could probably guess.
“Miss, I know you hate me now, but I won’t regret it.” Kiyoshi took the phone and her person appeared inside the video and in front of Jane Gardner, she picked up Zachary Irwin’s hand and brought his hand to her cheek.
“I love him, I love his handsomeness, I love his long body, and I love the golden elegance in his demeanor, and even if he doesn’t really love me, I would have no regrets in my life if I could be with him.”
“Promise me you’ll take good care of him, and from this day on, he’s yours!”
Jane Gardner closed her eyes tightly, never daring to look down again as she finished and quickly hung up the video.
After hanging up the video, Jane Gardner breathed heavily, she felt, almost couldn’t breathe.
Inside her mind, all the memories with Zachary Irwin came like a mountain of mountains, she felt that she was really suffocating.
Her chest, it was very hard, very hard.
“Miss, wake up! We’re almost at your house, don’t faint in my car!” The driver saw Jane Gardner’s condition in the rearview mirror, and he was immediately anxious.
Jane Gardner heard the driver’s words between haze, she also wanted to wake up, but she couldn’t, she suddenly felt very tired and didn’t want to wake up.
