Chapter 115
With that, Jane held Lila’s hand.
“Lila, let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Lila even gave Diane a provocative look and stuck out her tongue.
Seeing it, Diane was furious, however, she could not say anything.
Diane could only watch helplessly as Jane and Lila left.
Gerry was secretly glad that Jane and Lila had left and did not continue arguing with Diane.
The ***Gerry was about to comfort Diane, Diane, who was furious and had nowhere to vent her anger, gave Gerry two tight slaps.
After venting her anger a little, Diane left angrily.
Gerry felt wronged and wanted to cry.
Before slapping Gerry, Diane would definitely have no idea how much damage a tight slap can do to a man, especially two slaps!
No matter what, it couldn’t be better that the squabble could subside so quickly.
Diane took out her phone and made a call.
Diane did not dare to call Raymond because she was afraid of being scolded by Raymond.
So, Diane could only call Layne.
“Layne, what should we do about this? Jane was too much. I can’t do anything to her anymore. If we don’t do anything, Luna’s life will be ruined, not to mention how much this matter will affect the Croft. family.
“We can’t just watch others criticizing our family and do nothing.”
They were already weak in the Croft family because Raymond wasn’t capable and just had the title of the
young master of the Croft family.
It was Diane’s greatest blessing to be able to marry Raymond, and she was out of her league, to be honest.
The power of the Jason family and the Croft family was like the difference between heaven and earth. Of course, they could not be compared.
Unfortunately, the fourth branch of the Croft family had produced a rare genius, Hugh.
This time, the fourth branch could be said to have completely controlled the Croft family. Even Old Mr. Croft doted on Hugh and handed all the power of the Croft family to Hugh.
Hugh could be said to be able to decide everything in the Croft family.
The King of Stormton City was not just for show.
Fortunately, after the brothers split up, apart from some large-scale events, they did not see each other much and still maintained a harmonious surface relationship.
Hugh did not completely deprive the elders of their power. Of course, the prerequisite was that they did not have any ill thoughts.
Usually, Diane and Raymond dared to act like elders in front of Hugh to save their dignity. However, they knew very well that Hugh did not care about them at all.
They could not let Hugh have something on them!
On the other side, Layne was at the airport with a solemn expression.
Layne was sent to the branch of D. Y. Group in Cafiea.
Layne spent a few months successfully completing the mission and signed a case worth tens of millions of dollars.
At this time, Layne was feeling smug, thinking that his talent had a chance to be displayed, and wanted. to use this place as a starting point to begin his career.
Layne even thought he would be able to challenge D.Y. Group’s leader, Hugh, in the future.
As long as Layne performed better than Hugh, Grandpa would definitely take note.
Perhaps the position of the person in charge of the Croft family could change hands and fall into the hands of Layne.
In the Croft family, those with strength could control everything!
Then, Layne would win little Maddie’s favor and successfully build connections through marriages with the Fowler family.
By that time, not only could Layne obtain the Fowler family’s support, but he could also marry little Maddie.
However, Layne’s ****sister, Luna, had caused trouble for him again!
“I understand, Mom. Don’t be nervous. When I go back to Stormton City, I’ll go meet Jane.”
Since it had already happened, Layne had to think of a way to solve it.
In the past, in places like bars, Layne had seen countless women like Jane who came from the bottom and wanted to hook up with a rich man! Layne knew the best way to deal with such a woman.
“Layne, if possible, I really don’t want you to deal with this matter. Jane is engaged to you, and she likes you very much.
“Back then, the reason why she hid her identity and returned to the Fowler family was to fulfill her engagement with you and marry into the Croft family. She felt that in this way she will be able to make her way into the upper classes and get high social status and a lot of money.
“I’m afraid that you won’t be able to get rid of her in the future…”
“It’s okay, Mom. I know what I’m doing. The only person I love in my life is little Maddie. I don’t care about other women!”
At the thought of Madelyn being innocent and kind, beautiful and ***, like a snow lotus that had descended from the immortal world to the mortal world, Layne’s gaze could not help but soften. Only then did Diane feel relieved. “It’s good that you know. Let me make things clear first. I only approve of Maddie marrying into the Croft family and becoming my daughter-in-law. If you ***around with other women and cause any embarrassment, I won’t let you off!”
Diane only wanted Madelyn to be her daughter-in-law because she had witnessed Madelyn grow up in front of her. Regarding Madelyn’s ability and character, Diane could not be more assured and admired it very much!
Besides, Madelyn was the adopted daughter of Diane’s best friend, Anna. It could be said that they were even closer if Madelyn and Layne got married.
“I know, Mom. Okay, the plane’s almost here. I have to get on.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Diane gripped the phone in her hand tightly.
Raymond had already secretly gone to Harbor City to look for Luna. Their **daughter had caused such a huge commotion and did not even dare to show her face until now.
Diane could not tell Raymond about her failure today. Otherwise, with Raymond’s temper, he would
definitely beat Luna to death if he found Luna.
Diane had to think of another way to get that video.
It was best not to let Layne come into contact with that ****Jane. Layne was the only hope for their second branch to regain control power of the Croft family and defeat Hugh.
