Chapter 251 Change
Jane pursed her lips and smiled. Actually, she knew that it was wrong to bully Frederic, but she just couldn't help it.
Frederic's expression changed too quickly. After being bullied, he immediately felt extremely sad.
As the assistant of the CEO of the Duncan Group, Frederic had good psychological qualities.
"After being bullied for a long time, he has become mentally stronger."
If Jane had a strong mentality, she could work independently in the future. It would save her husband the trouble of being bothered so that he could have more time for rest. Robert was speechless. Everyone around William was being exploited, so did he.
Although Jane was not sure about Daisy's intentions, if necessary, she believed that William would let her know it.
In the president's office, William was in a daze.
The things that he had once suspected, although inconceivable, had been confirmed by Daisy. He had even once doubted himself.
It turned out that he was right, she was not Jane with the same soul at all.
Well, then he would not have any psychological burden.
Footsteps were heard at the door. Robert was knocking at the door.
"Is that Robert?"
William extinguished the cigarette and stood up. Out of his expectation, Jane was standing behind Robert.
"Darling, I just came out of Robert's hospital, so we just come and see you."
Jane smiled and explained. She didn't want to disturb William, so she asked Frederic in advance.
"Weren't you supposed to be at home? Why are you here?"
Robert and Pearl entered the door, but William ignored them. At this moment, he only cared about Jane.
William pulled her to the sofa and asked, "How do you feel now?"
"Not bad."
Jane touched her belly. The two babies were very obedient today and did not disturb her.
There were a lot of fans outside the Duncan's. Jane did not want to go home, because she had to explain to those people when she went back. She was really tired. She couldn't be the perfect celebrity now, and she didn't want to be a showman.
"If you don't want to go back, just call Lainey. Anyway, we have a lot of houses. Choose any one of them and I will accompany you."
William showed off his love as if no one was around, which made Robert and Pearl feel quite uneasy. They wanted to leave as quickly as possible.
However, since they couldn't leave, they should at least greet William and make them seem less superfluous.
Pearl looked at Robert and winked.
Robert coughed lightly.
He tried to attract William's attention.
Only then did William raise his head to look at him and say in surprise, "Robert, you're here?"
Robert was speechless.
What did William mean by it? Robert had been here for a long time. Before he just entered the door, William had seen him and greeted him.
It had only been a few minutes and William had completely forgotten about him.
"Mr. William, I heard Daisy is here. Why is she here?"
Pearl glared at Robert and asked the gossip she wanted to know most.
Potbelly was put in prison. Something would happen to the Carts sooner or later. Did she come to the Duncan Group to plead for leniency?
The problem was that the two families had already shed all pretenses of cordiality and had no friendship at all.
"She came to ask me for a small favor."
"I agreed," said William, with his eyes deep.
"Alright."
Pearl didn't think much about it. Daisy had changed too much. There was a fire at Andrew and Sophia's wedding. Daisy helped to save the people.
Sophia had kidnapped Daisy, and Jane had also saved her, so it could be considered returning the favor.
"Daisy has some financial products that she invested in under her name. It shouldn't be identified as the property of the Carts that should be frozen, so she asked me for help." William confessed and did not want to continue this topic. She was going to find an opportunity to talk to Jane.
If possible, he hoped it would be now.
William had never been as impatient as he was now. He was looking forward to the answer and was even a little nervous.
Unfortunately, the third wheel would not go as he wanted. Being the third wheel must be inconsiderate.
"Mr. William, we haven't celebrated your return yet. Why don't we go to the Sheng Villa tonight to celebrate?"
Robert never doubted William's ability. Otherwise, how could he be his boss?
When William returned, all the problems could be solved.
"Alright."
William lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Ask Elyse to come, too."
William had already informed his grandfather who had lived for more than half his life and understood anything. What the Floyds had done was within Colin's expectations, but he was in a bad mood and wanted to be alone. "Thank you for taking care of Janie during my absence. It must be tiring."
William stood up. He could leave early tonight.
Robert nodded. William finally said something, but Robert did not dare to express what he was thinking.
Jane only stayed for a few days in the Sheng Villa. After finding out that Jane was pregnant, William was afraid that the servants could not take good care of her and sent her to the Duncan's. The villa had been cleaned regularly, and there were also many fresh ingredients.
"I'll cook tonight."
Jane was in a good state. It was rare to have a gathering with friends, and her bad mood was swept away.
In the face of friends, she was different from before the camera, she could be herself and did not have to pretend.
"I'll do it."
William said forcefully as he looked at Jane.
"Let me do it."
Robert did not want to see their public display of affection. Moreover, the kitchen was the best place.
"I'll go, too."
Pearl squeezed her eyes. She had already used to it. Although William had a high profile, he was essentially a wife-doting maniac, even a wife slave.
They went to the kitchen. Elyse was depressed for being a third wheel. This was the trouble of being single.
Thinking about it, she chose to go to the kitchen to help, at least she did not have to suffer the depression.
As a result, the three of them worked hard in the kitchen, while William and Jane, the hosts, ate fruits on the sofa and watched TV.
Jane ate two strawberries and pointed in the direction of the kitchen. Out of conscience, she asked, "Isn't it bad for us to just sit here?" "They asked for it."
William said matter-of-factly.
Jane was speechless.
William was indeed a big boss, otherwise, he would not have friends for being like this.
The couple sat together, and William had something to say.
Jane felt that she understood him, but she was smart enough not to ask.
In less than an hour, a large table of dishes was made.
Robert's cooking skills were not bad. Jane thought that the main force was made by Pearl, but actually Robert cooked most of the dishes.
"Look at how thin this piece of meat is. It's of the same size and is so even."
Pearl poured Robert a glass of red wine and racked his brains to praise him.
Jane was embarrassed. Her hand, which had been aimed at some meat, changed direction. She then ate the vegetarian dishes. When Pearl said it, it was so creepy. It was too easy to make associations. In the end, half of the meat that Pearl praised was eaten by Robert himself.
Feeling relaxed, they drank a lot.
There were guest rooms on the second floor. William sent them back to the rooms separately and returned to the master bedroom on the third floor with Jane.
"You're so impatient. Do you have something to say?"
Since they were all gone, there was only the couple left, so Jane didn't have so many scruples.
William stared at Jane for a few seconds, then raised her head childishly and pulled her face.
Jane had a look of confusion, but she did not stop him from moving.
"Let me see if there's a human skin mask from the legends."
William repeatedly confirmed that it was indeed this person, but her temperament was really different from Jane before.
"Janie, you have changed too much ever since you were kidnapped."
William was silent for a moment and lit a cigarette. He went to the corner to avoid Jane and started to smoke.
He often smoked when he was thinking.
"I once thought that I didn't know you well enough, but I thought that was not the case."
A person might have changed in character, but likes and dislikes, habits, and many other things could not be changed.
In many ways, they were not the same person.☐☐
