Chapter 224 When It Rains, It Pours
The rain continued, and around the cemetery, there were wildflowers and weeds full of nature.
Jane took a deep breath and turned around, "If you have something to say, just say it."
She was a few callous about everything.
Jane did not know why it was like this. She still remembered that when she had been kidnapped, she had such a strong will to survive.
She thought that if she was kidnapped, the only reason she longed to escape was the baby in her belly.
Other than that, there was none.
She didn't dare to watch the news. She was afraid that she would receive bad news. Her heart was full of anticipation, and she spent every minute and every second in torment. "I will take care of you if you do not object."
Randy looked seriously at Jane, saying every word clearly.
'William would not come back. It has been a long time since he disappeared, and everybody knew something bad had happened to him.'
He and Charlee were old friends, and when Charlee talked about his experiences, he did not expect Jane to be Charlee's daughter.
"Charlee thought you had a lousy life after you married William. Did you know that he wanted me to save you from the Duncans?" Randy turned to look at Jane. Half a year ago, his mind was completely different.
He thought Jane was just a silly crush, and he wanted to use her. While he found out that he liked her, and he stopped all his tricks. Indeed, he still wanted to get close to her, but he did not hope to use any tricks.
William is a cold-blooded man. He has no sense of love. If he were willing to give the Clark family a chance to seek more funds, his father, Nelson, would not have to die. Thinking back to these years, he had been adopted, got plastic surgery, and became a famous person. Now, he was about to succeed soon.
The Duncan Group's share prices fell Because of Randy's tricks. He wanted to drive the Duncan Group bankrupt.
In the past, the Clark family went bankrupt, which destroyed the family. Randy wanted to see the Duncans getting their comeuppance.
As for Jane, Randy planned to capture her.
"Thank you. But I was doing well and did not want to leave my loved ones."
Jane refused coldly.
After seeing that she was doing well, Charlee had already given up on asking Jane to leave. Jane did not expect that the one who Charlee wanted her to marry was Randy. "But now the Duncans..."
Randy did not continue, and Jane was already quite resistant about this topic.
Jane knew the risks involved in the business. It was usual for a company like the Duncan Group to face these. Even if it went bankrupt, it did not matter. She had money and was able to raise the whole family! "I'm not talking about that. William is missing. You know what this means."
'It meant death. It was not bad for William to lose his life in the plane crash. Otherwise, if he lived and watched the Duncan Group go bankrupt, he would feel worse than ever.'
'Like Nelson, he could not accept the fact that his company was bankrupt and chose to end his life.'
Randy clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
"My husband will be fine. Even if something happens, I love him. And I will never leave the Duncans."
Jane did not get angry but bluntly expressed what she was thinking. As for Randy, she could only thank him for his love.
Randy's sister, Kylie, was driven out of the Duncan Group and went to the Floyds.
Rumor has it that someone saw Harrison go to Kylie's house after the ceremony of a new project.
It was needless to say what happened to them at Kylie's house.
Such a woman still said that she loved William. She only took a fancy to the Duncans' money instead of William.
"I'm different from Kylie. I have true feelings for you!"
Seeing that Jane was about to leave, Randy hurriedly expressed himself verbally. He arranged the fire at Andrew and Sophia's wedding. He wanted to get this chance to be a hero who saved Jane and change her mind!
Even if he knew that the fire could cause irreparable losses and even someone died because of it, what did that matter?
Randy only wanted to get a chance to change Jane's opinion of him.
Since he learned that Charlee was Jane's father, he felt that this was a fate between him and Jane.
It was just that Charlee died not long after, and he had no time to soften his future father-in-law up.
Randy felt that it was a pity.
"You must be crazy!"
Jane was speechless. He was a madman!
'Her father had just passed away, and her husband had gone missing. At this critical juncture, Randy had come to confess to her. Did he think that her misery was still not enough?'
'Could it be that if William died, she would be able to get a lot of property? Otherwise, why did he come to confess to her like this?'
Jane sneered and left.
Randy looked at Jane's back and felt that he had messed it up again.
But it didn't matter, and there was more difficulty waiting for Jane.
"Janie, if you need help, just let me know. I am always ready to help you."
Randy calmly added.
Everything had just begun, and it was soon going to be a stormy state. He could not wait to see confronted by more and more difficulty what Jane would do.
"Jane, I have a feeling that Randy was up to no good."
Robert pursed his lips. "There is no necessary for you two to talk in private."
"You are right."
Jane nodded in agreement. After the funeral, she immediately returned home to rest.
Not long after Jane arrived at the Duncan's, Frederic came.
Since William went missing, Frederic had returned to the Duncan Group to help Colin. Employees were now unsettled, even though Colin was in charge of the company. But the worse situation still happened.
"Frederic, are you here for something?"
Jane forced herself to remain calm. Colin had instructed her to rest well at home and not keep track of how the business was going.
There must be something cataclysmic happening, so Frederic has come to visit her.
"Madam, I have something to tell you, and please be prepared for what I'm about to say."
Frederic's state was not well. After enduring for a few days, he felt dispirited.
Just a while ago, the police came to the company for an investigation.
"Could it be that there's a loophole in the finance department?"
Jane did not understand what it had to do with the police.
"No, it is..."
Frederic felt shilly-shallied. At first, he did not intend to tell Jane. However, if the police directly came to the Duncan's, Jane would be scared by their sudden coming.
So after thinking it over, Frederic came here to deliver the bad news.
It was just that the bad news that came one by one made him unable to say it.
"If you have anything to say, say it. Don't worry about me."
Jane asked Lainey to pour Frederic some tea and was ready to accept the bad news.
When it rains, it pours. Jane had to accept it no matter how hard it was.
"Just now, the police invited Master Duncan to do an investigation because..."
"They found drugs in the Duncan Group," Frederic said, gritting his teeth.
Moreover, the number of drugs was quite astonishing, shocking the whole industry.
The Duncan Group had been secretly selling drugs would be news that shocked the world.
Although the news sealed off immediately, there is no such thing as a secret.
"Where did they find the drugs?"
Jane trembled. The news was much worse than she thought.
