CHAPTER 386 ESPIONAGE(1)
Edwin Carter and Jane had just arrived at the door, when Edwin Carter received Angela Carter's call.
Edwin Carter silently looked at the phone number on the mobile screen for a while before he answered. When he answered, he heard Angela Carter's voice that was filled with concern. He unconsciously softened his voice, "What are you thinking? What can happen to me?"
"I heard you... Are you really fine?"
"I'll be fine if you just do your job well and don't let us worry."
"Enjoy your time with your sister-in-law, bye."
Angela Carter said goodbye and hung up. When Jane saw Edwin Carter put down his cell phone, she asked, "Was it Angela's call?"
If Angela comes to know that her grandfather, who loved her all the time, had poisoned her brother and had a hidden identity, she would be very sad.
As Jane thought about the lively girl Angela Carter, she just wanted to protect her and didn't let her be hurt.
"Yeah." Edwin Carter nodded, "Fortunately, she was far away in the remote scenic area, and doesn't know what happened these days."
"Edwin..." Jane called him but suddenly couldn't speak.
If Edwin Carter gets to know that the grandfather he had respected for so many years is a fake one, what would he do?
Actually, Jane wanted to give him the recording after he woke up, but now she hesitated.
She wanted to avenge her father and let the old man of the Carter family pay for his sins, but, at this moment she didn't know what to do...
Is it really necessary for her to break through his identity that had been hidden for decades?
If the old man is punished as he should be, then it is not so important to announce his identity, right?
"Daddy-"
When Jane was indulged in her thinking, a soft voice sounded, Janell accompanied by Lucas ran to them with her small but quick steps.
Edwin Carter wanted to catch Janell, but she was held by Jane, "You can't hold her."
Edwin Carter, "..."
This woman is really annoying, in her eyes is he so weak?
Let alone his such a small daughter, even if he has to pick his wife he can hold her. How can he not hold his daughter?
However, Jane ignored Edwin Carter's discontented eyes. She hugged Janell and kissed her face, "Janell, mom hug you."
"I want daddy to hug me." She hasn't seen her dad for several days. She really wanted to hug him and kiss him.
"Dad's sick, he has no strength..."
CHAPTER 387 ESPIONAGE(2)
No strength?
As Edwin heard this, he became even more dissatisfied. He walked closer, picked Jane up by her waist in a cool way and walked inside.
"Edwin Carter, stop!"
Is this man crazy?
Why does he always have to behave cool?
Janell, who didn't know what was going on, was very happy. Her father picked up her mother, and her mother was holding her. She felt that as she was in the center of the whole universe.
It was so awesome and adorable!
Even after getting along with each other for a long time, Jane didn't know that Edwin Carter was such a willful and childish man. He bravely carried her and their daughter back. He was perspiring freely and his lips turned pale.
Honestly, she didn't want to talk to him any more.
She thought she didn't want to pay attention to him and despised him, but she helped Edwin Carter to sit down, took a towel to wipe his sweat, and brought tea and water for him. She really took good care of him.
"Dad, I want to tell you a secret." It has been said that children forget things easily, but even after the past few days, Janell still remembered that she had a secret to share with her father.
"Well, then tell dad what's the secret?" Edwin Carter sat on the sofa, Janell climbed into his arms and whispered in his ear.
Jane stood by and looked at this willful father and daughter. They were in a good mood and seemed kind and warm.
It's good for a family to live in peace without getting sick. That's enough. But some people don't give this chance.
The old man will not give up. Jane just hoped before he could play his next tricks, she would find a way to deal with him and send him to the right place as soon as possible.
...
Jiangbei is a city situated close to the sea.
At night, the sea breeze was cool. After a night walk, one can sleep better than usual.
After accompanying Janell for a long time, and because of bad health Edwin Carter was also tired. He took a bath and went to sleep first.
When Jane came back to the room, she saw Edwin and Janell lying together, which made her feel warm.
She came to the bed, kissed them on the foreheads and lay down beside Janell. In a low voice, she said, "good night, to my two willful babies."
Jane closed her eyes and in a moment she also fell asleep.
Just when she was asleep, Edwin Carter, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
He stared at his wife and daughter for a while. After confirming that they were really asleep, he got out of bed, left the room and went to the study.
He picked up his cell phone to make a phone call. He didn't give the other side any chance to talk and said, "I gave Sienna Henry to you. As for what information you can get from her mouth, it depends on your ability."
"Edwin, I'm your uncle. Don't you think while speaking to me you should be polite? Don't take me as your subordinate and don't give me orders." From the other end of the phone, Victor James's discontented voice reached Edwin Carter's ears.
"The story of Angela's parents and the role of James' family in that story are all verified?" Edwin Carter ignored Victor James's dissatisfaction. If Victor James was really dissatisfied, he wouldn't reply to him.
"Yes, they're verified..." While saying this Victor James on the other end of the phone was suddenly silent. He said after a while, "I always wanted to hide this, but it seems that I can't hide it anymore. Once this thing comes to light, Angela will know her real identity. At that time..."
"Since this matter has been confirmed. Then let's check if Angela's parents were real spies or, as the old man said, George Michael wronged them with the false evidence." Edwin Carter was also worried about Angela. However, for handling Angela's matter he has more sense of reasoning in comparison to Victor James.
If Angela's parents were falsely accused, they would clarify for her parents. But, if they were not falsely accused, Angela, as their child, would naturally have to bear all this.
Hiding these things from Angela cannot solve the problem, and Edwin Carter believed that Angela is brave and strong enough to make the right decision.
"You still have residual poison in your body. Take a rest earlier. I'll check these things." With that, Victor James hung up.
CHAPTER 388 HOPE YOUR DAUGHTER CAN GROW UP
Spy, false evidence, secret punishment.
These keywords were strung in Edwin Carter's mind, his way of thinking was becoming clear, and he believed that soon the truth would come to light.
Twenty years ago, Angela's parents suddenly disappeared. The main reason was that George Michael pointed out that they were military spies who stole confidential documents from the Jiangbei military region.
Now they just needed to check whether Angela's parents were framed by George Michael, what role does the old man have in that event, as well as the relationship between the old man and Angela's real parents.
This incident was related to his grandfather, Jane's father, the James Family, and Angela's parents.
For Edwin Carter, all these related people were also closely related to him.
Whether George Michael framed Angela's own parents, or Angela's own parents were spies, regardless of the facts, he wanted to give Jane a satisfactory answer.
What Edwin Carter didn't know was that after he left the room, Jane was also woken up by a phone call.
Assistant Joseph called her.
"Hello, Miss Jane Ronan." Jane picked up the call and assistant Joseph politely said hello to Jane.
This disguised politeness was too familiar to Jane. Three years ago, when they sent her to the abyss of hell, this assistant spoke to her with such a hypocritical courtesy.
Jane thought of that day's situation, at that time she was carrying Janell, with no power to deal with this person...
And just the thought of it made her forehead ooze cold sweat.
She thought of Edwin Carter. She hurriedly looked back and saw only Janell was lying beside her. Edwin Carter was gone.
In Edwin Carter's absence, Jane's heart panicked inexplicably. Before she could speak, she heard assistant Joseph's voice again.
"Miss Jane Ronan, you are really very lucky. As the saying goes, one is bound for good fortune after surviving a great disaster. I think Miss Jane's life will be better in the future. Oh... I almost forgot that you also have a daughter... She is so lovely, I hope she can grow up healthily. It's a pity if she can't live longer."
Assistant Joseph's ghostly voice reached Jane's ear, making her awake in a moment.
Jane clenched her cell phone, bit her teeth and sneered, "Joseph, please tell the old man. If he doesn't want something to come to light, then behave yourselves. If anyone dares to touch my daughter, you will see the consequences."
"So it means, you know what we want." Assistant Joseph suddenly laughed, a cold laugh that was both ear-piercing and that terrified the bones.
"Yes." Jane didn't deny it.
She told them that she has the evidence in her hand. Maybe, after knowing it, they will know their right place and won't dare to act blindly without thinking. But it didn't rule out that they won't be driven to desperate actions.
"Give us that evidence, don't tell Edwin Carter, after that everyone minds their own business, just as nothing happened." Assistant Joseph added.
"Just as nothing happened?" Jane asked.
It was probably the funniest joke she has ever heard in her life.
They really didn't understand that everything was provoked by them she was the victim, and if someone needed to forget, it wasn't them but her. Only she has the right to give the final verdict, and it wasn't up to them to leave things as nothing has happened.
"Miss Jane, you are intelligent. You should know what to say and what not to say. Everything can be negotiated before it happens. But if once they happen, the consequences will definitely not be that you can bear."
Assistant Joseph's voice was the same, as disgusting as in Jane's memory. It sounded incomparably polite, but it made people want to tear him into pieces.
Of course, Jane knew that this matter wasn't easy to handle. She also knew that there was no way to prove the identity of the old man by the incomplete and fuzzy recording.
That recording wasn't enough to prove the identity of the old man or the fact that the old master Carter killed her father. A long time has passed. The old master has grown old and naturally, his voice has changed a lot.
With this thought, Jane had some sense of helplessness but she didn't intend to give up.
At present, only Jane and Robert Michael have heard the recording. The old man didn't know that the recording was vague and incomplete. Jane thought that she could seize this opportunity to take some advantage of it.
"Joseph, if you are speaking about intelligence, you are much more intelligent than me," Jane paused for a while and spoke again, "So, I believe you know better what can be done and what can't be done."
"Jane, before you what was the Carter family like? See, what has happened to the Carter family after your appearance? You must not destroy the whole Carter family for your own sake." This time, it wasn't the assistant Joseph's voice but the old master Carter's voice.
With a cold snort, Jane said, "You can't threaten me so you come here to play your emotional card. Don't waste your breath."
Jane said and hung up the phone.
They can't threaten her, so they started emotional exploitation... do they think she is so stupid?
Jane turned off the mobile phone and put it aside.
She gently hugged Janell, who was lying next to her, in her arms and quietly looked at Janell's cute face.
It has been such a long time. Whenever she saw Janell, she felt as her heart melted away.
Janell was her little baby. She wanted to protect her well and let her grow up healthily. When she grows up she will get a good husband like her father and have a lot of cute children.
"Why aren't you sleeping?" When Edwin Carter returned to the room, he saw Jane's widely opened eyes, as if she was thinking about something.
"I was thinking..." Jane took a breath and smiled, "don't send Janell to kindergarten in this period of time. Let her stay at home and I'll teach her."
Assistant Joseph's words gave Jane a lingering fear, she was afraid that they would do anything with Janell. So she wanted to keep Janell at home.
Their villa's security was extremely efficient, and there they also have Lucas, so she thought Janell must be much safer here.
"What happened?" Edwin Carter strode over and rubbed her head. "Don't hide things in your heart. Tell me."
"I stay at home every day. I want Janell to stay with me at home." Jane didn't want to tell Edwin Carter about the phone call of the old man.
In fact, the last words of the old man were still in her mind. There are also Edwin' father, mother, and Angela in the Carter family....
They all are very good to her. If she did something to break through the old man, it will be the same to break the whole Carter family.
She thought she should wait a little longer. When she will confirm that the old man is not Edwin Carter's grandfather she will tell this to Edwin Carter, and he will make a decision.
"Huh?" Edwin Carter didn't believe Jane's words.
"Where did you just go?" Jane remembered that Edwin Carter had fallen asleep before she came to bed.
How did he come in from outside?
CHAPTER 389 WHAT DO YOU THINK OF LUCAS AS A HUSBAND
"I called Victor James and asked Robert Michael to give Sienna Henry to him and let him deal with her." Edwin Carter did not hide it from Jane, but he omitted some details.
Jane nodded, "Okay, that's good. Let them deal with everything. You're not well, you should take a rest."
Edwin Carter lay down beside Jane, held her in his arms and said, "My health is not as bad as you think."
Jane grabbed his uneasy hand and said, "Edwin, don't behave like a little child again. If you take a good rest, you will get better soon."
"Jane..."
"Yeah?"
"You are really not going to tell me?"
He knew that she must have something. He asked again, even if she was willing or unwilling. He just hoped that she could rely on him and trust him more.
"I'm afraid someone will hurt our child and the very thought... that Janell can be hurt, makes me..."
Just the thought that Janell might be hurt maddi Jane too frightened, she was unable to speak.
Edwin Carter patted Jane's back and comforted her, "I have arranged people to take care of Janell. Nothing will happen to her. If you don't feel at ease, for the time being, don't send her to kindergarten, just let her stay at home."
Jane didn't tell Edwin Carter the real reason, but Edwin Carter had probably figured out that someone was threatening her with Janell.
And now he can't think of a second person except the old man.
So many years have been passed since George Michael's matter, and the old man still wants to get rid of Jane. But why?
Soon, he will know the answer.
...
July and August are the seasons with frequent typhoons.
These days, the meteorological station often warned for typhoons, which showed how bad the weather can be.
It was stormy outside, and the sky was dark, just like the pressure was on the top of the head, but it didn't affect the family in the villa at all.
Edwin Carter was not fully recovered, so Jane forbade him to go to work and gave him two hours a day to deal with business at home.
And after two hours, Jane confiscated all his communication tools and treated him seriously.
At this time, Edwin Carter was busy in the study, and Jane was playing with Janell in the playing room.
These days, Janell didn't go to kindergarten, so Jane took the position of teacher and she was totally responsible for teaching Janell to read, recognize and draw.
These days, Jane came to know that Janell was much smarter than she had imagined. Janell was less than four years old, but she can recognize many words.
Jane praised Janell and also admitted that she must have inherited Edwin Carter's genes of this brilliant IQ and sharp mind.
"Mom, why does my little sister look different from Tom's little sister?" Janell asked softly.
Janell has always been confused, she thought... Tom's sister is a little girl, and her sister is a little dog. They both are their little sisters, why do they grow differently?
"Because they are not born by the same mother, that's why they look different. Tom's sister was born by Tom's mother, and Janell's little sister was born by Janell's little sister's mother."
Jane saw Janell blinking her big beautiful eyes that made her look even lovely and innocent. Jane could not help, she held Janell and kissed her gently.
"Mom..." Janell was confused by her mother's explanation. She scratched her hair vaguely.
She looked silly but very cute.
Jane can't help laughing and then she got a serious look from Janell.
"I don't want to play with mom. I am going to play with Lucas." As expected, Janell didn't want to stay with her mother anymore and ran to find Lucas.
They were playing in Janell's playing room and Lucas was standing at the door silently, without saying a word, and his two eyes were on Janell.
Jane saw Janell running to Lucas and noticed that his cold and serious face suddenly became tender.
He opened his arms and picked up Janell. He pinched her face gently. His movements were very careful as if he was caring for a piece of a rare treasure.
The boy was very tall and thin and has a good-looking face, but he never communicated with others, so everyone automatically ignored his face and just remembered his indifference.
Jane has been back to the villa for such a long time. Apart from Janell, she has never seen Lucas talking to anyone else.
"What are you looking at? You seemed so absorbed." Edwin Carter has been sitting beside Jane for a while. She didn't notice his existence, so he raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
"Edwin, how old is Lucas from Janell?" Being a mother it is natural to worry. Jane's daughter was less than four years old. Still, as she saw an excellent boy, she thought of keeping it for her daughter.
"It seems maybe eleven or twelve." Edwin Carter promised that he won't check his past, so he kept his word and didn't even ask about Lucas' age. The only thing Edwin knew about him was his name.
"Twelve is okay." Jane nodded and said to herself, which made Edwin Carter confused.
"What on earth are you thinking?" Edwin Carter frowned slightly, he was sitting beside her, but he was ignored by her, which gave him a bad feeling.
"Thinking about a good thing." Jane smiled and snuggled into Edwin Carter's arms. She rubbed against his chest. "What do you think of Lucas?"
"About what?"
"How about considering him as a husband?"
"Jane, you are a woman with a husband and a child. Don't daydream about it, or I'll abandon him." Edwin Carter almost roared.
"Edwin Carter, what's stuck in your mind?"
"Aren't you talking about making him a husband?"
"Go away and don't let me see you for half an hour." She really disliked him. What this man starts thinking?
"Then... what are you thinking?"
"I just think Janell is too lonely. Fortunately, Lucas is with her, so she doesn't feel so bored."
If it wasn't for Janell to hate her younger sibling, Jane would like to give her younger brothers and sisters to play with her.
Later, when she and Edwin get older Janell will have brothers and sisters around her and she will not be lonely.
Jane had this idea many times, but she always thought about that day when Janell was crying for her mother because she was afraid that her father would give birth to a younger brother and won't love her.
Whenever Jane thought of that scene, she always felt heartache for her sweet daughter.
"If Janell is lonely, we can adopt some more children. So she will have more playmates at home in the future." Edwin Carter put forward his suggestions.
"Why adopt? If we really want to raise more children, isn't it better for us to give birth to our own children?"
"We won't give birth to more children."
Edwin Carter saw it with his own eyes. How hard it was for Jane when she was pregnant for the first time. He had already kept it in mind, that he would never let Jane suffer that again.
CHAPTER 390 EARLY SELECTION OF SON-IN-LAW
Edwin Carter didn't want to have another child because he didn't want Jane to suffer again, but Jane didn't know. She thought he was thinking the same as her, both of them didn't want Janell to be unhappy.
Jane has always wanted to have many children. With more children, the family will be livelier. Later, they can share the work of Edwin Carter.
Janell was worried that her father and mother will have more children and they won't love her. Jane considered Janell's feelings and made a decision to not have more children.
They just have one child, so she needed to carefully choose a son-in-law. As for her daughter, Jane started to carefully investigate and analyze this Lucas.
With this thought, Jane's big eyes began to shine again, and once again she ignored Edwin Carter sitting beside her.
"Jane!" This woman really owed a lesson. He was sitting beside her but she dared to think of other men.
"Why are you disturbing me?" Jane looked at him discontentedly. "I'm thinking about Janell's future. Being her father, don't behave foolishly."
Edwin Carter was discontented, "Janell's future is up to her, and she will make a decision for herself. Just take care of yourself. Don't foolishly worry about her."
"She is my daughter. I think it's normal for me to think about her. What do you mean by foolishly worrying?" Jane really disliked his remarks.
"So, does Mrs. Carter want to quarrel with Mr. Carter?" Edwin Carter's tone suddenly became much gentler.
All of a sudden, Edwin Carter's gentle tone broke the tense atmosphere. He looked at her, pinched her nose, and smiled softly.
"Who wants to fight with you?" Jane moved her head on one side, for the time being, she didn't want to look at this enchanting evil man.
"After two days when the weather is better, we will take Janell out for a walk."
"Well, I was also thinking about it." As the last words came out of Jane's mouth, Edwin Carter suddenly kissed her and tasted her taste.
Jane blinked, looked at the magnified handsome face in front of her eyes, took back the action of rejecting him, wrapped her hands around his waist gently, and responded to his kiss.
At this moment, Jane didn't think about Janell or about the old man of the Carter family.
At this moment, their eyes can only see each other. Their hearts have only each other and their bodies can feel only each other's presence.
...
After the typhoon, the weather was very pleasant.
This day, just after getting up Jane received a call from Laura, who asked her to go shopping.
Jane has not seen Laura since she has recovered her memory. She had many words in her heart to say to Laura, but she has not found a chance. So she took advantage of today.
Their meeting place was the same shopping mall where they used to go for shopping in the past. When she arrived, she saw Laura waiting at the gate of the mall.
Not only Laura, but also John Alex.
Jane waved to Laura, "Laura..."
"Jane, here you are" Laura saw Jane and wanted to run to her, but she was grabbed by John Alex as soon as she was about to run.
John Alex said with a serious face, "the doctor said that you should not run around in this period. Please pay attention."
"John Alex! I am requesting you, can you please go away?" Laura stared at John Alex fiercely and then said, "If you disturbed me again, I will divorce you. Don't think I'm kidding. I mean it."
"Laura, listen to me, okay? Don't be willful." In front of Laura, John Alex was always the one being bullied. If she told him to go east he had no option than to listen to her.
But now it was different. She got pregnant. The doctor said that the first three months of pregnancy is a dangerous period. The pregnant mother must pay attention, so he can't let her go.
"John Alex, get out and go to work!" Laura was about to jump up with anger. "If you try to pester me again, I would go to the hospital tomorrow to abort this baby."
"Do not talk nonsense!" John Alex said in a strong voice.
His tone was a bit fierce. It was the first time that he had talked to Laura in such a serious tone, which really made Laura speechless for a while.
"Laura, are you bullying John Alex again?" From a certain distance, Jane heard them quarreling. It seemed that they were quarreling badly.
"Am I bullying him? Or he is making me angry?" Laura said, left John Alex's hand and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "If I had known earlier that it can be so troublesome I wouldn't have thought about giving birth to this child. Now you are yelling at me. Remember it. I'll settle with you when we go back home."
"I'm not yelling at you. I'm worried about you." John Alex felt helpless.
Laura was short-tempered and she looked careless as if she didn't care about anything. In fact, she was very emotional, but she didn't want to admit it.
John Alex knew that Laura cared about their child.
They have been married for several years, and they never tried contraception, but she has not been pregnant. Until now, it has been the first time that Laura was pregnant.
He knew that she must be happy in her heart. What she just said about not giving birth was just her stupid words.
Laura saw his depressed face. She pushed him, "Go. I will be fine, and your child will be fine."
"You two really have a good relationship. You've been married for so long, and still, you two are so clingy." Jane finally came to them and joked.
"Hello, Jane." John Alex nodded to her.
"You came with Laura for shopping. Are you worried that I will kidnap your Laura?" Jane asked with a smile.
John Alex smiled, "Enjoy yourselves. Jane, please take care of Laura for me and don't let her run around."
"Don't worry, she won't listen to other people's words but she has to listen to my words."
John Alex greeted Jane and then left.
As soon as he left, Laura said while turning her eyes, "... stupid man, I usually don't see how much he cares about me. As soon as he comes to know that I'm pregnant, he becomes so caring that it makes people angry."
"Laura, are you pregnant?" Jane asked excitedly, and at the same time, she hurriedly held Laura, which was no different from John Alex's careful appearance.
Laura said, "Oh, Jane you are also the mother of the child. Don't behave so abnormally, okay?"
Jane said, "Anyway, you should be careful when you walk. You have to listen to me. Otherwise, I will tie you back."
"If I had an idea that you will also behave like him I would have hidden it from you," Laura said but...
How can Laura hide this news? Yesterday, when she found out that she had conceived, she wanted to call Jane and tell her immediately. It was John Alex who stopped her, so she didn't make a phone call.
"Let's find a place to sit and talk, and walk less," Jane said.
Laura, "..."
It was good to not stroll around, after all, she had a lot to say to Jane and if she won't say it, she'll be guilty for the rest of her life.
They found a dessert shop to sit down. As soon as they sat down, Jane heard Laura saying, "Jane, I'm sorry!"
CHAPTER 391 PROMISE ME ONE THING
"Why are you talking nonsense?" Jane said displeasing.
"Jane, my husband has told me everything." Laura Ferdinand grabbed Jane's hand and suddenly choked, "I am responsible for that. He became selfish because of me. But he didn't want to..."
"Laura, stop it. If you dared to talk nonsense again, I would break your legs." Jane grabbed Laura Ferdinand's hand, and there were still spots of the burn on her wrist.
Obviously, Laura has suffered so much for her, but this silly girl came here to say sorry to her. This wasn't endurable for Jane.
"If I don't say it, I will feel bad." Laura Ferdinand really had such a character.
"I'm the one who should say sorry, but I haven't said it to you." From the time Jane has recovered her memory she knew about this incident and the things that Laura Ferdinand has faced due to her.
It was like a thorn that stabbed Jane's heart from time to time.
In the past, when those who she loved betrayed her, it was Laura who accompanied her to Jiangbei.
In her most difficult and helpless time, Laura Ferdinand always gave her strength. She always stayed by her side, always made her feel that there is a person in the world who is sincere to her, and she always gave her the courage to move forward.
Laura raised her hand to wipe her tears, burst into tears again but smiled and said, "Okay, forget it. It's not our fault. The people who did all this are still hidden behind the scene."
"Yes." Jane nodded.
Just wait for it! She will take her revenge. She will get justice for herself, for Laura and for her father.
Laura Ferdinand took out a document from her bag and handed it to Jane, saying, "Jane, in recent years, our wedding studio's business has been expanded several times, and Mr. Carter has made a lot of efforts for it. Here is a financial statement. Apart from my management and labor expenses, we are still fifty-fifty percent partners."
"Laura, are you stupid? Or you don't want to be friends with me?" Laura Ferdinand was working hard in the studio. She should have all the money she has earned. But she still came here to divide the money.
Is this girl stupid?
Laura Ferdinand glared at Jane and said, "We opened this studio together. Apart from my management and other expenses, we'll split the profits 50-50. Do you want me to be a traitor?"
"How could I know such a silly girl like you?" Jane pushed the document back to Laura Ferdinand, "you are pregnant. You should take this money for my nephew or niece."
"Don't worry. Shengtian's treatment is very good. John Alex's income is not low. I can earn money, too. We have already prepared everything for our child. If I have a son, I will let him go after Janell."
Laura Ferdinand thought about Janell and seemed to drool with desire. She really wished she could have such a beautiful child, but in her opinion, John Alex's genes were not good. Compared with Mr. Carter, there is a huge difference.
"Oh, come on, at that time your son is much younger than my girl. But I don't mind if the children want to."
There were two women. One was the mother of a child, and the other was going to be the mother of a child. So the topic of their discussion was their children.
They talked about their children, children's school days, and even about their children's marriage and how many children their children will have. They chatted for long until it was evening time and they thought of going home.
Jane asked the driver to send Laura Ferdinand home first. After confirming her safe arrival, Jane didn't leave immediately, instead, she called Edwin Carter.
After getting through, she heard Edwin Carter's pleasant voice, "Mrs. Carter, you have left your husband and child at home alone and went out for a date. Do you think it's good to stay out till so late?"
Jane smiled and said, "Mr. Carter, Mrs. Carter wants to ask you for help. I wonder if it's convenient for you."
"Unless Mrs. Carter promises me one thing."
"What is it?"
"Look back."
When Jane heard the instruction, she looked back and saw that Edwin Carter's car was parked not far behind her while he was standing at the door. He waved and smiled at her.
It was evening time, the street light was not on yet, and the man in the white shirt and black trousers was standing not far away.
Suddenly, Jane thought of a sentence- Hundreds and thousands of times I searched for him in the crowd. Suddenly I turned, and there he stood, in the dim light.
When he was not by her side, she always felt that her heart was empty. She always felt like a bird without feet. She could only fly because she didn't know where she should go, there was no home, no harbor to stop.
But now... wherever she went, she had the surety that when she looked back she would see Edwin Carter standing behind her and becoming her solid harbor.
Jane looked at Edwin Carter, slightly smiled and asked, "When did you come? Why don't you tell me?"
Edwin Carter smiled and said, "I'm here to check whether you are dating other men on my back."
Jane walked to him and threw herself into his arms, "Mr. Carter, you are a little late. Mrs. Carter has sent the man away. If you had come a little earlier, you might have met him."
Edwin Carter rubbed her head and said with a smile, "fortunately, the man left, otherwise, he might be crippled if he had been caught."
"Hello, bully." Jane looked up from his arms, and suddenly said, "Mr. Carter, what do you want me to promise you?"
Edwin Carter said, "Tonight, let's eat out."
Edwin Carter was very bored to stay at home and suddenly found out that they hadn't lived much in the world of two of them.
Now there was Janell at home, and the time for two people was even less. So he wanted to go out with her but didn't want the little unicorn at home to disturb them.
"It's a rare invitation from Mr. Carter. How can Mrs. Carter refuse?" Jane put out her hand and patted him on the face, and deliberately spoke in Janell's tone, "Eddie sweetheart, today, Jane will listen to you, and today she will do as you say."
Edwin Carter was stunned to hear Jane's words. For a while, he didn't know how to reply to her.
Jane saw Edwin Carter's stupefied appearance, and burst into laughter, "Okay... I won't tease you again. Mr. Carter, I agree to have dinner with you, but you also have to promise me one thing."
"Go ahead. As long as you don't want to remarry, I promise to do everything." He never refused what Jane asked him to do.
"Actually...." Jane looked at him and said seriously, "A few years ago, Laura was burned by fire due to me. I don't want any such thing to happen again. Can you send someone to protect her? Now that she's pregnant, I'm afraid she'll get hurt again."
"Don't worry. I have already arranged it." What Jane can think of, Edwin Carter has already thought for her. He has already made arrangements. He never wanted her to worry about anything.
CHAPTER 392 A ROMANTIC NIGHT
The restaurant Edwin Carter booked was an air view restaurant near Mangrove Bay in Jiangbei. The restaurant's scenery was very beautiful, one can enjoy the night view of the coast.
No doubt, the scenery was perfect, but the people sitting there were more beautiful, as people often say, the charm of your favorite person is much more intoxicating than alcohol.
Beauty of nature, delicious food, and the most favorite person....
Everything was in front of them. They can cherish this natural beauty, can eat this delicious food and can touch their favorite person.
What else does one want from life?
Jane was wearing a long white knee-length skirt. Her body curve was perfectly outlined by the suitable cuts. Her long hair was slightly curled, and she looked slim and beautiful.
Jane's facial features were very delicate, and her light make-up was perfect. She and Edwin Carter were sitting in the dining room, and the focus of their attention was each other. Soon they attracted the attention of a large number of people.
Edwin Carter was used to the gaze of others. He could ignore the existence of those eyes easily, but for Jane, it was still difficult. She was not comfortable.
She wasn't uncomfortable because others were staring at her, but because she hated those women staring at Edwin Carter.
Is there something wrong with these women's eyes?
Mr. Carter has such a beautiful woman sitting beside him. These women still wanted to seduce him with their eyes. Do they want to be beaten up?
Jane wished she could have magic, so she would create a barrier and hide her Mr. Carter to the place where only she can see him, not the other people.
However, she has no magic and can't fight with others, so her Mr. Carter has been stared at by others.
Fortunately, Mr. Carter did not look at the other women. He can only feel her existence in his eyes as if she was the only woman left in the world.
"I think Mrs. Carter has learned how to pout from Janell, do you also want to drink milk?" Edwin looked at Jane's angry appearance, thought it was funny and deliberately teased her.
Jane rolled her eyes up and down, "I want to drink milk. Do you have any?"
As soon as she said this, she saw Edwin Carter's eyes sweeping towards her chest, which was evil and dirty.
Jane instinctively put her hand in front of her chest and said angrily, "Edwin Carter, don't look and don't think about it. Be careful otherwise I will beat you."
She wanted the reserved cold Chairman Carter to come back soon! She didn't want this shameless man in front of her.
Edwin Carter chuckled, "silly girl, when others look at your husband, it proves that your husband is not bad. That is to say, you have a good eye. You should be happy. Being angry only makes you ugly."
Jane said, "Even if I look ugly, I am still Janell's mother. If you dare to dislike me, we also don't want you."
"Jane, what did I tell you the other day?" Edwin Carter's face sank, and he said in a cold voice, "if you talk nonsense again, I'll beat you."
"Really?" Jane whispered.
In fact, she's just kidding. How can she live without him? Without him, there would be no sunshine in her life.
Edwin Carter originally wanted to book the whole restaurant, but Jane mainly wanted to experience dating as ordinary lovers, so he didn't reserve the whole restaurant.
Unexpectedly, this little woman was so easy to get jealous. Other women just looked at him and she got angry.
Edwin Carter sighed, "Little fool, have a meal, we'll hang around after dinner."
Jane took the dish and put it in Edwin Carter's plate, saying, "You haven't recovered yet. Eat more."
"I want to be ill all the time." If he wasn't well, he could get the chance to enjoy her meticulous care, occasionally teased her like a child and these all were very good.
"I'll beat you if you talk nonsense." Jane gave him a vicious look.
How could this man be so stupid?
"Really?" He asked her the same as what she had asked.
"Yes, obviously." When he said such words, she really wanted to beat him. It's just that if she beats him, she also feels pain is in her heart.
After the meal, both of them were silent. But he did not want to end it like this, so he dragged Jane along the mangrove bend for a walk.
Edwin Carter held Jane's hand and she leaned on Edwin Carter's side like a bird, finally feeling a bit like a couple walking together.
While walling they can hear the sound of the waves. Because of the light, they can also see the nearby seascape.
Edwin Carter stood still and stroked Jane's forehead. He said softly, "Jane, do you remember that we have walked this road together?"
Jane nodded.
Of course, she remembered. And she still remembered her wish that she wanted to build a sea paradise in that bay.
Thinking about it, Jane looked up and saw that the area had been reserved. Various shelves were already set up. It seemed that it should be under construction.
"Edwin, that area isn't among the natural reserves? How can they construct it? Did the construction company get government approval?"
The place where she dreamed of building a marine paradise has been developed by others. She felt so bad, as the meat on her heart had been cut off.
Edwin Carter said, "Well, I'm not sure about that."
If Jane was a little more careful, she would be able to find the flash of a smile in Edwin Carter's eyes, but she was in a hurry at the moment, so she missed it.
"How can the government do this? No one can do construction on such sites." According to Jane's heart, if this bay remains here, she can still have a dream. But if someone else develops it, her dream will be broken.
Edwin Carter embraced the extremely emotional Jane and comforted, "little fool, let it develop. There may be unexpected good things."
"I'm not Janell, don't coax me with this tone." This man didn't know what is in her heart, he certainly can't realize the feeling in her heart.
"You promised to eat with me and take a walk with me today, but do you know that you are spoiling the atmosphere?" According to Edwin, his woman was even less romantic than him. For a while, he wanted to abandon her and find another smarter and prettier than her.
"Uh huh. you provoked me first."
"I... Well, it's my fault. I shouldn't make you angry."
"Good if you know it is your mistake." Jane heard it and took it for granted
Edwin Carter, "..."
Sure enough, don't argue with a woman. You never know what's going on in her mind.
If you want to be happy, just remember a principle- No matter whether you do something wrong or not, just admit your mistake and everything will be easy to do.
Edwin Carter was about to take Jane home when he received a phone call from Victor James. Jane didn't know what Victor James said. But when she looked up. She saw his facial expressions changed abruptly.
He said, "Jane, sorry, I have to go to Jiangbei military region. Now I'll drop you home."
CHAPTER 393 REAL GRANDPA OR NOT
"I want to go with you." Victor James called him at this time, so Jane guessed it must be related to Sienna Henry.
She wanted to follow and see if she could help.
Edwin Carter stroked her head, "No, you go back home and stay with Janell."
Jane grabbed his arm, didn't speak, just blinked her big eyes, and looked at him with clear eyes.
Edwin Carter looked at her lustrous appearance. He could not help it. He had an idea.
He clasped the back of her head, pulled her to himself, bent over and kissed her, just like tasting the best food in the world, and as he would never let her go...
No wonder he was feeling that today's date was short of something. How can they end it without this kiss?
After a long kiss, Edwin Carter slowly let her go. Edwin Carter saw her red face and said in a low voice, "what a lovely child."
Jane blushed and murmured, "Aren't you ashamed of kissing a child like this?"
"Well, it's an adult who behaves in a childish manner."
"Villain!"
Edwin Carter took her hand, "let's go."
"To where?"
"Guess!"
Jane, "..."
After an hour and a half, they reached the Jiangbei military region.
Victor James came out to receive them in person. He was not surprised to see that Jane was also there.
With Edwin Carter's personality of loving his wife so much, it was not surprising that Jane accompanied him everywhere.
A few days ago, he heard that this man transferred all the shares of Shengtian held by him to Jane, but he didn't know whether it was true or not.
Victor James was thinking about this and heard Edwin Carter saying, "I heard that the Jiangbei military region has always been able to deal even with those spies who have received special training. Why is it hard to deal with a woman who has never received any special training?"
Victor James shrugged and smiled helplessly, "To deal with a person, first of all, you need to know her weakness. A person who has no weakness, no matter how weak her body is, compared to a wall of iron she can endure more."
At this point, Victor James turned to see Jane, who was walking beside Edwin Carter. This woman was the weakness of Edwin Carter.
Jane was very quiet. After meeting and greeting him, she quietly followed Edwin Carter's side and listened to their conversation quietly. She didn't interfere nor interrupted.
"Find her weakness. There must be one." Edwin Carter believed that everyone had his own weakness, but some people hide it too well.
"That's why I called you. Sienna Henry has been with you for more than ten years, and you have some understanding of her nature." Victor James suddenly smiled and said, "I think she betrayed you, most probably because her love changed into hate."
"Don't talk nonsense." Edwin Carter gave Victor James a gloomy look, indicating that he should stop talking.
Obviously, Jane, his wife that was easy to get jealous of, was still there. No one knew when she would start thinking nonsense.
Sure enough, as soon as he turned around, he received a look of discontent from Jane.
Since there was a third person at this time, so Jane just showed him her angry face, otherwise, she would directly hit him.
"Jane, think about it. A woman who has been around a man for more than ten years. From her young age to now. If it wasn't for such thoughts about this man, what can be the reason?"
Victor James was a man who wasn't afraid to wish for the whole world to be in chaos. He exaggerated on purpose. It seemed that if Edwin Carter didn't fall into trouble, Victor would not be happy.
Jane returned to Victor James with a gentle smile and said, "Uncle, what you are saying can be possible. Don't say that the women who have been around Edwin Carter for more than ten years have developed feelings. Even the women we met when we went out for dinner started thinking about your charming nephew. But what's important is that your nephew has a family. And I believe in him."
See, how generously and intelligently Jane said this, but Edwin Carter felt aggrieved. Why did she pinch him quietly?
"If every woman is as sensible as you are, it's good news for men all over the world." The couple did not fight, and Victor James was not happy at all.
While talking, they reached the place where Sienna Henry was being held.
Those who are loyal, Edwin Carter never treated them badly.
But for those who betrayed, Edwin Carter will never be merciful.
Victor James led Edwin Carter and Jane to the monitoring room and pointed to the woman on the screen, "From the day she came here, she sits in that corner without moving a step. Except, when my people ask her questions."
Edwin Carter also looked at Sienna Henry on the screen and asked, "What information have you got?"
Victor James sighed, "She didn't say a word in all these days. Today, she only said one thing, that is, she wants to see you."
Edwin Carter picked up his eyebrows and asked, "Did you find out her real identity?"
"She also came from State A." Victor James looked at Edwin Carter and then said, "All the people besides your grandfather, are all state A people. If he wasn't your grandfather, I would doubt his identity."
As Jane heard Victor James's words, she felt the coolness rush to her head from the bottom of her feet, and her heart was numb.
According to the incomplete recording, the old master should not be Edwin Carter's own grandfather, so this impostor was really state A people?
What was his intention, why did he sneak into the Carter family to replace real grandpa Carter?
To have Shengtian?
Or for some other reason?
No, she can't hide it from Edwin Carter anymore.
Jane decided when she reaches home, she will give the recording to Edwin Carter. She can't put him or his family in danger.
Edwin's parents and Angela Carter all were filial to the present grandfather. They were very easy to be cheated on.
"Because he is my grandfather..." If it wasn't for his grandfather, Edwin Carter would never use such an easy method as keeping him on the farm.
When he thought of his family and his upbringing, and that grandpa Carter was a highly valued elder of the Carter family, Edwin Carter always tried to give him a chance before doing anything.
If the old man was willing to stop, if he was willing to put everything on the table, if the old man has repented, Edwin Carter will send him back to the United States to live a good life there.
Victor James said, "Sienna Henry hasn't told us anything, and I'm not willing to be cruel to a woman, so, who's going to talk to her?"
"I'll go." Jane said and took a step forward.
Edwin Carter grabbed her. He was a little dissatisfied and said, "You cannot go. Just wait for me here."
"She is a woman. Women know women better than men. Let me go, maybe I can find some unexpected answers." Jane said firmly.
CHAPTER 394 APPROACHED HIM AS A MARRIED WOMAN
"No. I can't let you go." Edwin Carter refused.
Edwin wasn't willing to take any risks because he already knew that it can be a little dangerous.
Victor James didn't like Edwin Carter's attitude of protecting his wife like protecting a child. He patted Edwin Carter on the shoulder and said, "This is my place. Are you still worried about that woman hurting your wife?"
Jane also added, "What uncle said is true. I'm not a kid. Moreover, what can she do to me while you are outside?"
Edwin Carter realized that he might be too nervous. Jane was far more independent and powerful than he imagined. But he always wanted to protect her under his wings and ignored her strength.
He can't always be by her side, just like three years ago. Ultimately, she has to face some things alone, so he should give her space to deal with things she can deal with.
Just when Edwin Carter was hesitating for a moment, Victor James gave Jane a look. She received the signal and immediately turned to the room where Sienna Henry was detained.
Sienna Henry's room was next to the monitoring room. It was a very small room, but it was clean. There was only a small window on the wall.
Sienna Henry saw Jane and her silent eyes flashed out a murderous look and she looked at Jane gloomily.
Jane stood at the door, firmly looking at Sienna Henry with a smile.
They looked at each other. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was filled with an inexplicable silence.
After seeing each other for a long time, Sienna Henry suddenly smiled. She looked up and laughed, crazily and ironically.
When she laughed enough, she stopped. She closed her eyes, leaned against the wall and ignored Jane.
Jane was also smiling, but her smile looked warm and soft, quiet and beautiful. On the contrary, Sienna Henry seemed crazy, the competition between them was clear and Jane won by absolute advantage.
After standing for a while, Jane went to Sienna Henry's side and sat down, smiled softly and said, "I heard that you wanted to see my husband. If you have anything, say it to me, I will tell him word by word."
Sienna Henry turned around, turned her back to Jane, and remained silent.
Sienna Henry didn't speak, but Jane was not upset. She said slowly, "in fact, even if you don't tell, I know what you want to say to him. You just want to tell Edwin Carter that you like him, right?"
As soon as Jane said this, she saw Sienna Henry shaking her fist. Jane gave a little smile and continued, "You are already married. You have a husband. Do you know you are cheating him this way? This kind of behavior is really bad."
Jane shook her head and sighed, "Your husband is so pitiful. His wife sleeps in his arms every night, but she thinks about how to cheat him with another man."
"What the fuck do you know?" Sienna Henry turned around, stared at Jane and gritted her teeth, "you know nothing, so just don't bullshit here."
Jane smiled and answered, "I know nothing? Can you deny the fact that you have a husband?"
"I never admit that wimp as my husband." That wimp who can't do anything, can't even bear the most basic living expenses, what qualification he has to become her husband?
Victor James didn't know Sienna Henry's weakness, but as a woman, Jane knew that some weaknesses were not apparent.
Like Sienna Henry's weakness was her dissatisfaction with her marriage life, which was surely the last thing she would like to mention to others.
Sienna Henry got angry and of course, it was something Jane really liked....
Jane has made an investigation and found out the disharmonious relationship between Sienna Henry and her husband. So she stabbed Sienna Henry with this thorn, which made Sienna Henry lose her mind, and she can't stay calm as she was before.
At this time, it became much easier for them to get some information from her mouth.
"If you don't like him, if you don't want to stay with him, why don't you get a divorce?" Jane asked with a smile. "Unless, you want to approach Edwin Carter as a married woman so that he won't know you have extra thoughts about him, right?"
Yes, the marriage with that man was a thorn in Sienna Henry's heart that cannot be removed, because it has rotted in her heart.
And the real emotion of Sienna Henry was exactly that Jane had guessed and said it correctly. She just wanted to use her married identity to stay by Edwin Carter's side all the time.
Sienna Henry stared at Jane, who was still smiling softly, and roared, "Jane, what do you think you have except this face?"
She wanted to tear up Jane's face, so that she could not use this face to attract Edwin Carter, and could not laugh at her with such a smile.
If Jane hadn't come to Edwin Carter's life, things would never have been like this as they have become.
Jane did not answer but still looked at Sienna Henry with a shallow smile. Sienna Henry was willing to speak, and for Jane, it was a good thing.
Sienna Henry looked at Jane fiercely, "Do you think you are worthy of Chairman Carter? You don't even deserve to stand behind him. On what basis do you marry him and give birth to the blood of the Carter family? Even at such a young age, he becomes the in charge of Shengtian and gets so many successes. He is a man standing on the top, how can a woman like you stand beside him? Why can't you be smart and leave him voluntarily. After that, there are chances that everything will be saved. If you are stubborn and want to stay with him all the time, then keep it in mind that sooner or later that you will regret it. You will certainly regret it!"
Jane smiled and shrugged, "I don't deserve him? Will I regret it? But I am married to him and gave birth to his child, and he is very good to me. You're an outsider who knows nothing. You can only shout here. What else can you do?"
"Jane, don't be too happy. It's too early. You will surely lose him, and it is not far away."
You will surely lose him?
Jane was a little surprised to hear this.
What does Sienna Henry mean?
What else did that fake old master of the Carter family have done to Edwin Carter?
Jane wanted to know, but she can't ask directly, so she has to use her own method and continue to uncover Sienna Henry's words. Only in this way, she can hear some clues.
Jane continued to talk with her, "what I have and what I don't have, it has nothing to do with you. Am I worthy of Edwin Carter or not worthy, it also has nothing to do with you! As for the blood of the Carter family, it's a fact and can't be changed."
Sienna Henry looked at Jane coldly and smiled again, "Jane Ronan, just wait and watch. Sooner or later you will regret it. Believe me that you will regret it badly."
CHAPTER 395 WHO IS THIS OLD MAN?
From Sienna Henry's words, Jane can deduce that Sienna Henry and others must have done something else, but Jane and Edwin Carter had no idea about that at present.
Edwin Carter and Victor James can also hear Sienna Henry's conversation. Jane believed that with their intelligence they can be able to get more information about it.
With this idea Jane continued to get more information, "Sienna Henry, you shouldn't think about other people now, just think about your situation.
You're not old either, you're only a few years older than Edwin Carter. You're well maintained and charming. Unfortunately..." Jane shook her head. "It's a pity that you don't know how to cherish your life. No one can help you."
"Hum..." Sienna Henry sneered at Jane. She even dared to betray Edwin Carter. It showed that she had left her life aside. Death was not as terrible for her as for others.
Jane spoke again, "life is only a few decades, is very fragile. It will end at any time. You are working hard for someone, but does that person really care about your life?"
Sienna Henry snorted coldly, closed her eyes and said nothing.
Sienna Henry's attitude made Jane understand that Sienna Henry was really not afraid of death.
Jane looked at her, the light in her eyes was soft and faint, but also cold and resolute, with almost pretty and flirtatious charm.
She suddenly approached Sienna Henry and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear. "The old man is not the real grandpa Carter. As long as I tell Edwin Carter this news, do you know how the situation will change?"
Her voice was low and crafty. It stabbed Sienna Henry's soft ribs like a sharp arrow with poison.
"What... What nonsense are you talking about..." Sienna Henry shook her fist and her expressions changed suddenly. She didn't know whether she was angry or because Jane told her this. Her whole head was shaking. "Jane, do you think someone will believe you if you make up such a story?"
"Oh?" Jane smiled, and then said, "You are from state A, and assistant Joseph is also from state A, and you all work hard for the fake old man. Don't you think it's enough to guess that the old man is also from State A?"
Sienna Henry gritted her teeth and stared at Jane for a long time. She didn't want to say anything, so she turned her face away.
However, suddenly Jane realized that she had just got the information she wanted to know from a microexpression - just now, when Jane said that the old man was a State A person, Sienna Henry's eyes flashed a fleeting disdain, and her mouth curved an invisible arc.
People always can't completely hide their emotions, including Sienna Henry, who was secretly happy for Jane's wrong guess.
Jane smiled and realized that she was wrong.
Jane smiled and said, "Oh, thank you for telling me that the old man is not a State A's person."
As soon as she spoke, Sienna Henry suddenly turned her head again and looked at Jane viciously. The hatred in her eyes was like the surging tide and the fangs of wild animals.
Jane looked at Sienna Henry's reaction and confirmed her guess. She couldn't help but cast an approving and satisfying look at Sienna Henry. "The old man is not from state A, so why do you work for him?"
The old man of Carter's family was not from state A, but there were so many state A people around him who worked for him. What is the real reason?
Her father George Michael killed an important person, but who is that important person?
Who is the man who was very important to the Carter family?
Sienna Henry was very angry and annoyed by Jane's eyes. She didn't want to answer her questions. She just wanted to tear Jane apart. But she couldn't move. She could only howl and roar, "Jane, I want you to die!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't answer me. I have evidence to prove that the old master is not Edwin Carter's own grandfather. Sienna Henry, this life is your own. You want to live or die. You can choose. Two roads are in front of you. You can choose whatever you want. It's up to you."
"I want to meet Chairman Carter." After hearing everything that Jane has said, Sienna Henry could not calm down.
"He will not meet you. What do you have to say, say to me."
"If Chairman Carter doesn't see me, you won't get the news from my mouth."
"Why do you want to see him? You know his temper better than me. After all, these years you have been with him. You know what kind of means he uses to deal with a betrayer."
From the moment Jane spoke in a low tone, their conversation wasn't heard by Edwin Carter and Victor James, both Jane and Sienna talked with each other and said these things in a very low voice.
In the monitoring room, Edwin Carter and Victor James were just watching them.
Victor James's eyes moved from the monitor's screen to Edwin Carter, "Edwin, I thought your wife is a lamb, now it seems that I have made a mistake."
Edwin Carter's eyes narrowed slightly, and it was fixed on Jane in the monitor. Her transformation was so great that he was shocked at the moment. He didn't hear what Victor James said.
Victor James patted Edwin Carter on the shoulder when he got no response from Edwin Carter and said again, "Edwin, what did she just say to Sienna Henry?"
Edwin Carter replied calmly, "She spoke like this, obviously she didn't want us to hear. Why do you need to know?"
Victor James heard Edwin Carter's words, only felt that his heart was moved with great momentum....
How can this man spoil his wife like this?
Victor James was doubtful that if one day his wife cuckolds him, he will smile and say, "dear, it's okay. If you really like that man, go after him, I will support you."
He gave Edwin Carter a bad look and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a person."
"Uncle, the world is too complicated. There are too many things you can't expect." Just as he never thought that his grandfather would let people slow-poison him, he never thought that the person who has been around him for years was a traitor.
Edwin Carter still remembered when he was a child, his grandfather's taught him the philosophy of life but in the end, nothing was of use.
In the business industry, he used his principle of dealing with people and the means of work.
In social life, he has his principle and means of social interaction.
"I want to see Chairman Carter. Let him come to see me!" Sienna Henry's screams reached their ears again.
Victor James leaned against the wall and joked, "Edwin, I didn't expect you to be so charming. I think you should meet her and fulfill her wish."
Edwin Carter got up and walked to the next room. He appeared at the door of Sienna Henry's room. He stood there quietly, and the light behind him pulled his shadow very long.
CHAPTER 396 INCOMPLETE DETOXIFICATION
Edwin Carter looked at Sienna Henry and said in a cold voice, "I'm here. I am giving you a chance to talk."
"Chairman Carter..." Sienna Henry was so emotional to see Edwin Carter that her voice was hoarse and her tears broke out like a waterfall.
She rushed forward but fell to the ground because she was locked in a chair. She desperately reached out to touch Edwin Carter's trouser or even his shoes, but Edwin Carter has been standing so far.
So far as at the end of the earth, so far as in some other world....
He was clearly in front of her, but she can't touch her.
"Chairman Carter, Chairman Carter-"
She called Edwin Carter again and again, with the tone of infatuation, like calling one's lover, she seemed in deep love. Her voice was romantic and sweet.
Edwin Carter slightly frowned, and his eyes sank, "Say if you have something to say."
"Chairman Carter, do you know? You certainly don't know, because you never paid attention to me. No. You never treat me like a woman. I work so hard to make the best of everything you told me, but you never see me.
Yes, I admit I'm older than you but what's the big deal? A woman who is a little older than you don't have the right to pursue the people they like? Your father Stephen Carter always knows that you are the one I like, but he introduced me to a man like that.
A man who is good for nothing except eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. A man who has no other skills. You can never know what it's like to face a man who's as good as a God in the daytime and a wretched man at night after going home."
Jane and Edwin Carter looked at Sienna Henry, who was wriggling on the ground. They felt sick and pitiful for some reason.
There are seven hardships in life, one of which is to not get what you desire.
Edwin Carter suddenly held Jane's hand, and they looked at each other.
Sienna Henry was on the ground, looking up at them, who were indulged in each other as if the world only has two of them.
The resentment in her heart almost hit the whole chest. She hated herself, Jane, the old man, Stephen Carter, her husband, everything, even Edwin Carter.
"Ha ha..." Sienna Henry suddenly laughed, with tears rolling on her face. She looked like a crazy person, "Chairman Carter, do you think your poison has been detoxified? Ha ha ha! Chairman Carter, I wish you a long life!"
Jane panicked as she heard Sienna Henry's words. She was extremely terrified. She tried to ask calmly, "what do you mean?"
Sienna Henry didn't answer Jane's question. She just looked at Jane, her eyes were filled with a crazy smile, and she murmured, "hahaha... Live... A...Long...Life..."
Her laughter echoed in this small room as if fingernails were scratched on the glass, which made people feel uneasy, even scared.
"Sienna Henry!" Jane was worried about Edwin Carter and rushed to Sienna Henry, but she was grabbed by Edwin Carter as soon as she moved.
She subconsciously wanted to get rid of Edwin Carter's hand and rushed to Sienna Henry to make clear about the poison, but Edwin Carter grasped her so tightly that she could not move even if she struggled hard.
The worry about Edwin Carter had already turned her anger into anxiety. She couldn't help shouting at Edwin Carter, "Edwin Carter, what are you doing? Leave me!"
However, Edwin Carter still didn't leave her. He even grasped her more tightly.
Regardless of the struggle and resistance of Jane, Edwin Carter suddenly turned to Sienna Henry, who seemed very proud. His eyes were sharp and cold, "Sienna Henry, I have given you the chance. But you don't know how to cherish it. Don't blame me for being cruel to you later."
Leaving the words behind, Edwin Carter took Jane and left.
Edwin Carter kept Sienna Henry because he wanted to find out something about the old man from her mouth. However, Sienna Henry's mouth was tight. They can't find anything. So, there was no need for him to waste more time on this useless person.
Sienna Henry's words made Edwin Carter's guess clear.
He suspected that his poison had not been completely removed and that there was a potential danger in his body. The body's reaction in these two days reminded him from time to time, but it did not do anything to him.
Since Sienna Henry dared to say this, it proved that the residual poison in his body was much more severe than he imagined.
However, Edwin Carter didn't want Jane to worry about it. No matter how uncomfortable his body will be, he will hold on to it and will be the strongest support for Jane.
"Edwin Carter, let me go. I want to ask clearly before leaving." Compared with Edwin Carter's calm behavior, Jane was the opposite. She was shouting.
The poison was not detoxified!
That is to say, Edwin Carter will likely be comatose again at any time. It can be possible at any time.
Jane did not dare to think about it. She took a deep breath!
Edwin Carter hugged Jane, put his chin on her soft hair, gently stroked her, closed his eyes, and softly called her name, "Jane-"
His voice was deep and sexy, touched her heart, and pressed down the extreme uneasiness.
Edwin Carter bowed his head and kissed her on the forehead, then said, "Sienna Henry is playing a mind game with you. If you really believe what she said, you will lose."
"Are you really OK? Is it really just that she plays a mind game with me? You aren't lying to me?" It was not that Jane didn't think about Sienna Henry's intention, but because it was related to Edwin Carter, she cannot think sensibly.
She couldn't imagine what she would be like if something happened to Edwin Carter. She would be crazier than Sienna Henry.
"Fool, have I ever lied to you?" Edwin Carter hugged her as if to rub her into his body so that she could see his heart.
Jane murmured, but the uneasiness in her heart had not been completely subsided. Sienna Henry's horrible laughter came again.
"Hahaha Mr. Carter, my dear, you are so good and excellent. Why do you like that ordinary woman? If you had seen my love, how can I be willing to poison you? I wish you good luck.... ha ha ha.... I hope you can survive... at least two more days than me."
Sienna Henry's crazy roar spread to Jane's ear, she was shocked. She unconsciously reached out and tightly wrapped Edwin Carter's thin waist, "Edwin, whether Sienna Henry is lying or not, we will go to the hospital for a general examination tomorrow."
Edwin Carter nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the doctor. Don't worry."
CHAPTER 397 WAS THERE ANY BIG CHANGE
On the way home, Jane has been thinking about Sienna Henry's words, and her mind was full of worries about Edwin Carter's health.
In her mind, there was a chaotic state. Suddenly she thought of today's conversation with Sienna Henry about the real identity of the old man of the Carter family.
Assistant Joseph was from State A, Sienna Henry was also from State A and they all worked for the fake old master. Now Jane was sure that the old man was not from state A, so she was confused about his identity.
Even after thinking for a long time, Jane could not think of the answer.
Currently, the old master was the biggest potential threat around Edwin Carter. She can't watch the danger around without informing Edwin Carter. If she hides it more, Edwin Carter will be in a dangerous vortex without knowing anything.
Jane thought a lot about it. She couldn't help staring at Edwin Carter beside her, and asked seriously, "Edwin, in your childhood, who loved you the most?"
"My grandfather." When he has been asked about the people who loved him the most, Edwin Carter's first thought was of his grandfather.
Edwin Carter remembered that his father loved his mother very much. Because his mother had a difficult time giving birth to him, and her health was bad, all the attention of his father was on taking care of her mother and he naturally became the neglected one.
But he has a grandfather.
His grandfather always loved him, and taught him all kinds of lessons. He learned a lot from his grandfather.
When he was a child, his grandfather often said to him that the man of the Carter family should stand up to the sky, love his wife and protect his children. Only by guarding the sky in his heart, he can conquer the vast space.
"Then, is there any... strange thing that has happened to grandpa?" Jane thought carefully before uttering these words. She was afraid that Edwin Carter would not understand, and she was also afraid Edwin Carter would understand too well and could not stand the stimulation.
"Strange thing?" Edwin Carter frowned, and he didn't understand what Jane said.
"For example..." After a little pause, Jane said, "Is there a big change in him? Like, a change in temperament."
She asked seriously and carefully and it was not hard to see the hesitation in her eyes.
Edwin Carter heard Jane's question. After Thinking about it and after careful consideration, he replied, "It seems that there is not much change."
Jane was disappointed to hear this answer.
"What's the matter?" Although he has answered the question, he still didn't understand why Jane asked him.
"Edwin, if... I mean if..." Jane was so nervous that she swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked cautiously, "what would you do if you come to know that grandpa Carter is not your real grandfather?"
"If he isn't my grandfather? How could he not be my grandfather?" The assumption of Jane was absurd, but he still thought about it carefully.
However, after thinking for a long time, Edwin Carter couldn't think of anything.
Jane saw his frown and said simply, "has grandpa Carter disappeared for some time? And after that, he becomes different, maybe just a little bit different."
Edwin Carter heard Jane's question and suddenly had a flash of memory in his mind.
He still clearly remembered that when he was nine years old, grandpa was not in good health and went out to have a rest for a year.
A year later, when grandpa came back, it was when his parents had adopted Angela. At that time, grandpa also hired an assistant named Joseph.
Since then, there has been a change in grandpa's temperament. He always avoided him and didn't teach him things as before.
But grandpa loved Angela more than him who has no blood relationship with him. He loved Angela so much and always cared for her more than anything. He prioritized Angela's needs over anything.
At that time, Edwin Carter was a little jealous, but he thought that grandpa avoided him just because he is a boy and needed to take more responsibilities and Angela is a girl, so it's natural to be spoiled.
This idea has long been deeply rooted in Edwin Carter, but today Jane put forward another possibility.
Perhaps, grandpa's change of attitude towards himself was not out of love, but because that grandpa was not his former grandfather. At that time, Angela also suddenly appeared in their family, and... Angela's parents were the most important people of "grandpa"...
Is it... Is it true that this grandpa is not his own grandpa, and grandpa and Angela are the real blood relatives?
Edwin Carter was shocked because of the thoughts in his mind.
It was not that there was no such possibility, but he was unwilling to believe that grandpa Carter who loved him and taught him a lot has been quietly replaced by another man.
Edwin Carter didn't answer, but Jane knew from his expression that something must have happened to grandpa Carter before.
Jane didn't say anything more. She just moved closer to Edwin Carter and said softly, "Edwin, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side."
"Jane, do you know something that I don't know?" Jane never said anything hypothetical, so Edwin Carter guessed that she must have some evidence that he didn't know.
Jane nodded, "I have something about grandpa in my hand. Do you want to see it?"
Once this thing is handed over, Edwin Carter can lose one of the most important family members.
Edwin Carter didn't hesitate, his eyes were obscure but he nodded firmly.
It was clear that the old man was not Edwin Carter's own grandfather, so it was obvious that he didn't love Edwin Carter. Poisoning Edwin Carter may be the lightest means for that treacherous impostor.
Jane saw that Edwin Carter had made up his mind, after reaching home she did not delay for a moment. She immediately went to take the recording and handed it to Edwin Carter.
"I have got this recording from the ring that my mother gave to me. It's too old, the sound quality is not clear, and there are some defects," she said.
Edwin Carter nodded, opened the recording pen and listened to it carefully.
The first part was about the murder of George Michael, and the second part was about the real identity of the old man.
In the conversation, it can be vaguely heard that the unknown man had replaced the real grandfather Carter, but it was not clear who he was and why he wanted to replace the grandfather Carter.
Before hearing the recording, Edwin Carter had a conjecture, but it was only his own conjecture, which was not tenable at all. Now, these pieces of evidence pointed to the fact that the old man is not his grandfather.
It has been proved that his grandfather had been replaced twenty years ago, but as his favorite grandson, he didn't even know it.
"Edwin, this recording is incomplete, and the missing part is perhaps the most important." Jane said, carefully pulling the corners of Edwin Carter's clothes.
Edwin Carter clenched his fist, hid his tumultuous emotions, and smiled at Jane, "I'll take care of this. It's late. Go to have a rest first."
CHAPTER 398 EXCHANGE WITH YOUR DAUGHTER
"Edwin," Edwin Carter was about to turn around and leave, when Jane called him and said, "You told me that no matter what happens, we as husband and wife bear it together."
"Right." Edwin Carter rubbed her head and smiled softly. "Take a rest first."
"Edwin-" Jane still wanted to say something, but as she looked in Edwin Carter's eyes, she swallowed all the words she wanted to say.
For Edwin Carter, it was painful to be hurt by his grandpa.
But the fact that his grandfather who once loved him so much was quietly replaced by a stranger for more than 20 years and he had no idea, was even more painful.
He didn't even know that his grandfather was alive or dead.
If grandpa is still alive, how does he spend these 20 years?
If he has died... Then in the past 20 years, Edwin Carter has called an enemy his grandfather.
How angry his grandfather must be when he saw from heaven his grandson loving his enemy.
When Jane thought all this her heart ached.
This pain had deep guilt and anger, like the fangs of a poisonous snake, which devours the heart and rots the bones.
She felt like this then... How was Edwin Carter feeling?
...
The recording was handed over to Edwin Carter. Instead of being relaxed, Jane was afraid and could not keep calm.
Last night, Edwin Carter went to the study after he had got the recording pen. She didn't know what he had done. He had been busy for a long time before he came back to the room. He went out again this morning.
Jane looked at Janell who was holding the brush and drawing carefully, she reached out and pinched her fleshy face. She said softly, "Baby, mom wants to hug you."
Maybe by hugging Janell, and after feeling the little guy in her arms, she will not be so worried and uneasy.
Janell put the paintbrush away, pounced into her mother's arms and rolled into her arms. She said softly and sweetly, "Mommy, Janell painted daddy, mommy, brother, and sister..."
It turned out that she was painting her family. There was their family and also Lucas and Mia Mia but the painting was too abstract. The coloring was so random that it could not be seen that there were Lucas and Mia Mia.
But the most important thing for children's education is to build their confidence.
Even though Janell didn't paint well at all, Jane still nodded and gave Janell a thumbs up, "My baby is wonderful! What a beautiful painting!"
"Mom, I want to give it to brother Lucas!" Janell grabbed the painting she had just painted. It was a mess, but she felt very satisfied after her mother's affirmation as if she had drawn the most beautiful painting in the world.
"Janell you like Lucas, that's why you want to give it to him?" Jane glanced at Lucas who was standing aside like a statue and asked Janell.
Janell nodded hard. Little head nodded like a wave drum. She said softly, "Brother Lucas, this is for you."
Janell grabbed her painting and waved it. Lucas quickly came to her to take it. He smiled at Janell, rubbed her head and quietly went back.
Janell's eyes moved with Lucas's movement, and Jane realized that Janell wanted to play with Lucas.
She helped Janell to tidy up her clothes and kissed Janell, "go to play with Brother Lucas."
"Yeah." With her mother's permission, Janell ran to her brother again.
Looking at the back of Janell and Lucas, Jane can't help smiling.
What's the matter with her? Janell is so young. Why she begins to worry about Janell's marriage.
Janell is the only daughter of Edwin Carter and the only heir of Shengtian. It was obvious that many people would chase her for her identity. However, it will not be easy to find someone who will be really good to her. Jane really hoped that Lucas could guard Janell all her life and give her love and protection.
Her cell phone rang and interrupted her thoughts. She picked up her mobile phone and saw that she received a picture of Laura Ferdinand.
In the picture, Laura Ferdinand's smile was very bright, but it made her feel a little uneasy.
Jane immediately dialed Laura's phone number. After getting through, she heard a cold and familiar male voice, "Hello, Miss Jane!"
After hearing this familiar disgusting male voice, Jane immediately went mad and almost shouted, "Joseph! What the hell do you want to do? If you dare to touch her, I will let you die without a burial place."
"Ah-"
Before she had finished speaking, she heard Laura's scream.
"Don't touch her. You can have anything you want!" Laura was in their hands, and Jane can't stand it any longer.
Assistant Joseph said in his ghastly tone, "So you understood how you should speak? Where's the woman who just warned me? Do I have hallucinations and misheard?"
"It's my fault. It's my fault. I'll give you what you want. Just don't touch her." Laura Ferdinand has been hurt once because of her. Jane can't let her get hurt again because of herself.
"Ah-"
Laura's scream once again reached Jane's ear from her mobile phone. Her heart was numb and confused.
"Laura..." Jane bit her lips, clenched her fists, and roared, "Joseph, if you don't do anything to her, everything will be easy to discuss. If there's anything wrong with her, I'll take you to the end."
"Miss Jane is such an emotional person!" Assistant Joseph smiled grimly. "At present, Miss Ferdinand is very good. We just slapped her a few times. Nothing else has happened."
"I'll give you what you want."
"Miss Jane, you have handed the thing to Edwin Carter, and now a tragedy is bound to happen."
Jane heard him and felt once again a basin of ice water had been splashed on her back, which made her back cool.
She just handed over the recording to Edwin Carter last night. He came to know this morning.
Is it to prove that there are still old master's people around her and Edwin Carter?
If so, who is the person?
Assistant Joseph's voice came again, "Fortunately, I'm in a good mood today. I don't want to hurt people very much. Your friend's face is swollen, but there is nothing else."
"What do you want?" Jane asked.
"What do I want? Let me think about it." Assistant Joseph pulled the ending long, "I want you to bring your daughter to replace your friend."
"You, don't think..."
Assistant Joseph smiled again, "Miss Jane does not agree, so what will happen to Miss Ferdinand and her baby? I can't guarantee it."
CHAPTER 399 ANGELA IS BACK
Laura Ferdinand was Jane's best friend, and Janell was Jane's only child. The importance of these two people in Jane's life can be imagined. Jane would rather exchange her life for their safety, but it was impossible to exchange one of them for the other.
This reality was completely understood by each and every person around Jane. Then the assistant who has been with the fake old master for years was surly aware of this.
Jane also understood that assistant Joseph didn't really want her to exchange Janell for Laura Ferdinand's life. He just wanted to revenge her.
If she had foolishly sent Janell to exchange Laura Ferdinand, then none of them would come back. They kidnapped Laura to threaten her and revenge her to make her understand that she has made a wrong decision by ignoring their warning.
"Let's treat Miss Ferdinand well!"
From the mobile phone, the bleak voice of Assistant Joseph reached Jane's ear again. Right after that, Jane heard the fist's sound and Laura's scream.
"Don't touch her. We can discuss something." Jane grabbed the phone, bit her teeth and tried to speak in a calm voice.
Assistant Joseph ignored Jane, and said directly, "I heard that Miss Ferdinand is pregnant. Her child will live more or not, it depends on your words."
"Joseph... wait..." Jane bit her lips and said, "Don't touch her, I'll replace my daughter,"
"Ha ha..." Assistant Joseph chuckled grimly. After a long time, he stopped and said, "Miss Jane, do you really think we are fools? You will exchange your daughter for this woman?"
"Little Jane, baby, where are you? See, auntie is back. Why didn't you come out to receive me?"
Jane was about to say something when Angela Carter's loud voice suddenly came from the outside of the room. At the same time, Jane and assistant Joseph at the other end of the phone heard it.
"Miss Jane, I have played enough today. We'll continue some other day. Don't talk about it to the young lady, or you will be responsible for the consequences." Assistant Joseph said and hung up.
Jane listened to the busy signals of the mobile phone and wanted to smash the mobile phone in her hand.
Laura was in their hands. He hung up the phone, which made Jane feel that her only contact with Laura was broken. Just as Jane raised her hand to smash her cell phone, suddenly something flashed in her mind and she thought of the last sentence that Joseph had just said.
Why Joseph was so worried about Angela Carter knowing this?
Jane just agreed that she would replace Janell with Laura. Obviously, it was just a trick. She wanted to get time to inform Edwin Carter to find a way. The sudden appearance of Angela made Jane think of another possibility.
Is it related to Angela?
Jane remembered that the old man desperately wanted to bring Edwin Carter and Angela Carter together. She remembered grandpa Carter's love for Angela and Joseph's respectful behavior with Angela.
Jane didn't spend a long time with them, but she can still see who was good to whom from the heart and who was just pretending to be good.
Angela Carter has a lively nature, and she hated evil people--
They wanted Angela Carter to live in her own pure world happily all the time.
They certainly didn't want to leave such unclean things as kidnapping and threatening in Angela Carter's memory, so they were afraid to let Angela know what they have done.
According to the intensity of care and love of the fake old man to Angela Carter, it can be confirmed that it will be more effective to let Angela save Laura.
"Janell baby, let your auntie hug you. I missed you so much that I can't even eat well."
"Auntie, one thousand for hugging."
"My little money-grubber, isn't it five hundred? I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've raised your price. You're getting more and more money-obsessed."
Angela Carter and Janell were talking outside the room. Jane listened to Janell's tone, and she was sure that Janell really liked her aunt very much.
Jane listened, clenched her mobile phone, and wanted to go to Angela Carter.
But... Jane didn't move, if she let Angela know the dirty acts of those people, then in order to cover up the traces, they can even kill people.
At the moment when Jane was confused and cannot think anything, her mobile phone rang again. She looked at it. On the screen of the mobile phone, there was a most familiar number.
Jane looked at the familiar mobile-phone number and imagined Edwin Carter's beautiful face as if Edwin Carter was watching her tenderly.
"Hello?" Jane just said this and found that her voice trembled. It wasn't calm and self-reliant as it was when she spoke to Assistant Joseph a moment ago.
"Jane, don't worry. No matter what happens, you should remember that you have me. I will deal with the matter of Laura, and I will not let her have any problems."
The familiar old words and the familiar low sexy voice.
As if he could always predict, whenever she was in a miserable state, he always appeared.
"Edwin-"
"Yes, I'm here."
Coldness, fear, panic...
Just after hearing Edwin Carter's low and sexy voice, all the disturbing factors left Jane's body one by one.
She took a deep breath and smiled, "Edwin, thank you."
"I'm your husband." When he heard the words "thank you" from Jane, he reminded her.
After a pause, he asked, "Angela is home?"
"Yes, just arrived." Jane nodded and said, "How do you know she's back?"
After asking this question, Jane found out that she has asked a silly question. This brother and sister's relationship have always been so good. It was not strange that Edwin Carter knew that Angela has come back.
At the moment when Jane was chagrined at her silly question, she heard Edwin Carter's very serious answer, "I asked her to come back."
"Oh..." Even though the person across the phone couldn't see her movements, Jane nodded.
"Jane..."
"Yes?"
"Use your cell phone to call the old man and let Angela talk to him."
"Do you want Angela to help us save Laura?" Jane shook her head and said, "Joseph just warned me to not tell Angela. If now I ask Angela to call them, they will be annoyed."
"Jane, Laura Ferdinand will be fine."
"She's pregnant, she's beaten, she's going to be in trouble at any time, and I'm not going to risk her life." At the thought of Laura Ferdinand, Jane was worried again. She completely forgot what Edwin Carter had just said to her.
CHAPTER 400 CAN’T BELIEVE GRANDPA IS A BAD GUY
"Jane, trust me!" Edwin Carter said.
Edwin Carter again uttered a simple sentence. His voice was low and deep and Jane calmed down.
"Okay." Jane nodded.
She trusted Edwin Carter, his people and she believed that Laura will be okay.
"Sister in law, I'm back." Angela Carter jumped in like a child.
"Angela..." Jane looked at Angela Carter and tried to smile, "Can you do me a favor?"
"Sister-in-law, if you have anything, just ask for it. Even if it is a matter of going up to the mountain and down to the sea of fire, it will be done."
Jane sat down with Angela Carter and roughly explained the kidnapping of Laura Ferdinand to Angela Carter.
However, Angela Carter didn't believe it.
"Sister-in-law, I think you misunderstood. Grandpa can never do that."
In Angela Carter's eyes, grandpa Carter is the kindest person in the world. She couldn't believe that grandpa Carter can kidnap others and threaten sister-in-law.
Absolutely not!
According to Angela, sister-in-law and grandpa have no hatred and no resentment. How can a kind and lovely grandpa do this to her brother's wife, the Carters' daughter-in-law?
Angela Carter said that she didn't believe it, but she took the cell phone from Jane, took a look at Jane and quickly pressed the phone number firmly in her mind.
No matter what Jane said was true or not, Angela Carter thought that she should call grandpa and ask him. She must clear grandpa's innocence. No one was allowed to throw mud at her grandpa.
The phone was quickly connected. The kind voice of the old man came out, "Jane, I know you are filial. I appreciate your kindness, but you don't need to call me every day to send greetings."
Hearing the fake old man's sham words, Jane slightly hooked her lips and said in her heart, "what a sly old fox!"
Maybe the old man also knew that Angela has come back, so he was very careful on the call and didn't let Angela find out anything.
When Angela heard grandpa's words, she took a long breath of relief and smiled, "Grandpa, this is Angela."
"Ah..." grandpa Carter was surprised and said, "It's my little angel. Aren't you shooting in the scenic spot? Why did you come back all of a sudden? Why didn't you inform grandpa earlier? Grandpa would ask Joseph to receive you at the airport."
"I miss grandpa very much, so I came back early. Grandpa, Angela will come to you later." Angela Carter said.
"Okay, I am waiting for Angela." The old man on the other end of the phone laughed happily and continued to say in a kind voice, "In our family Angela is the most sensible and considerate child. Every time I think of you and hear your voice, I can feel that I'm several years younger."
Angela Carter said sweetly, "Grandpa, then Angela will call you three times a day later, so that grandpa can be even younger and can always be with Angela."
Angela Carter didn't believe that her favorite grandfather would do what Jane has said, so she didn't plan to ask him. If she doubts grandpa, grandpa will be sad. She didn't want to make grandpa sad. She was grandpa's reason to smile, it was her responsibility to make grandpa laugh.
"Good!" Grandpa said again, "Then grandpa will ask people to cook Angela's favorite dishes, and then I will wait for Angela to come to meet me."
"Great! Grandpa, I want to eat pearl balls." Angela Carter smiled and said, "Grandpa, I will talk to you later. Goodbye, grandpa!"
Angela Carter looked up and saw Jane standing in front of her. She smiled apologetically, "sister in law, I'm really sorry! Grandpa is my most respected elder, I don't believe that he can do such a bad thing, so I don't want to do something that may make him sad."
Jane shook her head and smiled, "Angela, you don't need to apologize to me. Each of us has someone we want to protect. If it's me, I'll have the same choice as you."
Everyone has their own people whom they want to protect. Angela wanted to protect her grandfather who loved her. She wasn't hurting others. So how could Jane stop her?
Angela spoke again, "sister in law, grandpa is really a very kind person. Don't be deceived by his serious appearance and don't misunderstand him."
Angela Carter firmly believed that it must be Jane who has misunderstood grandpa. In her eyes, grandpa is so good. How can he kidnap Laura to threaten sister-in-law? That kind of madness was not something that her kind grandfather can do.
Jane listened to Angela's words and smiled without saying anything.
In front of Angela Carter, the fake grandpa Carter was not only a kind old man but also a grandfather who loves his granddaughter so much.
Jane was not surprised to see that Angela Carter was so protective of her grandfather.
Angela Carter wanted to say something more when Jane's phone rang again. It was Edwin Carter's call. She hurriedly handed it to Jane, "Sister in law, my brother is looking for you. Please answer the phone first."
Jane took over the phone and heard Edwin Carter's voice, "Jane, everything will be solved soon. You stay at home with Janell, and wait for a piece of good news."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home." This time, Jane didn't ask anything. She just needed to trust Edwin Carter unconditionally.
Jane believed in Edwin Carter, but when she thought of Laura, a pregnant woman had been kidnapped by that insane beastman, she would still worry, but she hid her worry in her heart and was unwilling to add more burden to Edwin Carter.
The reason why Jane was worried was that she didn't know what all has happened today was a situation created by Edwin Carter.
A game that draws the snake out of the hole.
Laura Ferdinand was Jane's best friend. She once suffered injuries because of Jane. This time, Edwin Carter already had arranged people to protect her safety.
Jane has come back, for the people who wanted to hurt Jane, Laura Ferdinand was a breakthrough to fight against Jane.
If something happened to Laura Ferdinand again due to Jane, Jane will probably live in self-reproach and guilt in her whole life. As Jane's husband, how Edwin Carter can let such a tragedy happen.
From the conversation just now between Angela and the old man, Edwin Carter can confirm one thing.
The old man's love for Angela was definitely from the bottom of his heart, which proved that his previous reasoning wasn't impossible.
After knowing the general identity of the old man now, Edwin Carter has a direct target to search for.
