Chapter 142
Since Layne refused to say anything, the doctor had to fall silent.
He enjoined Layne to rest well since his injury would probably take a few days to recover, and before that, he couldn’t walk normally
Layne panicked at that “A few days? I thought it would only take one or two days! I gotta go back to work. And my parents, what should I say to them? Do something, doctor, get me a solution to recover as soon as possible!”
“If you insist, sir, we can only give you an injection. However, it will affect your health, I’m afraid… So i think you’d better have a good rest now.”
Layne didn’t respond.
He took a deep breath and restored his peace.
“Alright. How’s little ***doing, then?”
The doctor secretly heaved a sigh of relief, cheering that Layne did not persist willfully. “Miss Madelyn. is fine, but like you, she needs quiet rest…”
“I see. Come closer. I’ll tell you something. You’ll pretend…”
He said it under his breath.
Let’s get back to Madelyn.
As no one was around, there was finally no need for her to fake tears.
She gripped the phone in her hand tightly.
Her foot had undergone surgery and was bandaged.
The pain came over her in waves.
However, she couldn’t say anything about it.
Even though she wanted to exaggerate and make the Fowlers resent Jane and ****that ***. And it would get Hugh and the others involved.
Even if Madelyn said it, the Fowler family couldn’t seek justice for her.
Those were, after all, the three richest families that even the Fowler family did not dare to offend.
She thought of the damage that Hugh had caused her and the scene of Connor and the others gathering around Jane.
Mixed feelings crossed her mind.
They were laughing so happily.
“Are they really that close?” she wondered.
Why?
Why could Jane get the attention of these men so easily?
She was doted on by the Fowler family and had received the most aristocratic education.
Being a peerlessly elegant and beautiful lady, she, not Jane, should be the one surrounded by Hugh, Connor, and Robert.
But why was it Jane?
“God, did you make a mistake?”
The more she thought about it, the more she was overwhelmed by jealousy.
It gradually grew and surged inside her.
Eventually, the waves of jealousy became unstoppable.
The veins on her forehead were bulging.
“Jane Fowler…” she gritted.
“I could forgive anyone, but not you, never!
“Between you and me, only one person will survive in this world.
“And it will be me!
“Go to ****! You ****!” she thought.
Madelyn’s eyes were filled with desperate coldness and madness.
With trembling hands, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.
Soon, the call was connected.
A playful male voice sounded. “Miss Madelyn, welcome.”
“I want 3 million this time.”
In order to set Jane up at the international competition, Madelyn needed money urgently.
The pocket money given by the Fowler family was far from enough.
And if she was to borrow money from Layne, it would easily arouse suspicion.
To get money quickly in a short period of time, she had to resort to this.
“Of course, Miss Madelyn, as long as you give me some information about the Fowler family, like its recent business moves.
“And then 3 million dollars will be transferred to your card immediately.”
“Deal. I’ll send you a proposal I recently saw in daddy’s study.”
After hanging up, Madelyn forwarded the proposal that she had kept for a long time.
And soon, she received a message.
It was from the man.
“Very good, Miss Madelyn. We’ll confirm the value of this proposal, and if there is nothing wrong, the money will be transferred to your account tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
Madelyn’s eyes turned cold..
She betrayed the Fowler family and got 3 million dollars.
“Jane Fowler, this time, I will make you ***!”
Without Jane, Madelyn was sure she could easily accumulate 30 million or even 3 billion with her capability.
Jane returned to her apartment.
She was taking a shower with music playing.
All of a sudden, her cell phone rang.
It was Andy.
“Janie, I got a piece of news for you. Madelyn got three million for a proposal of the Fowler family. which is actually worth 20 million.”
“Thanks, Andy, help me organize the data. I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”
“Don’t mention it, Janie. When will you visit Rheinsville? I haven’t seen you for a long time. I miss you bad.”
“Alright, I’ll get there with Lila sometime. Get prepared then. It won’t be my treat. It’s yours. You’re the host, isn’t it?”
“As long as you come, you can indulge yourselves in whatever you want. Money is not an issue. I got money enough for you two to splurge for more than ten centenaries.”
As the first class lawyer and underground broker of Crucsia, Andy was quite rich.
And what he said was basically the truth.
After hanging up, Jane grinned coldly.
She looked confident and determined.
Her fingertips glided across the water, creating some ripples in the steam.
She thought to herself, “As expected, Madelyn is making her move.
“I knew it. My existence cornered her, and in order to fight against me, she needed a lot of money.”
Jane did not know why in her previous life, Madelyn was doing business with these men.
But as long as she found out Madelyn’s purpose, she could force Madelyn to betray the Fowler family. Money!
This word was the root of all evil!
It had slowly pushed Madelyn and the Fowler family into an abyss.
Jane began to look forward to the ending of the drama.
The Fowler family would be torn apart by Madelyn.
She was still in the dark and did not know the truth.
And when Jane threw the evidence in the Fowlers’ faces, how would they react?
What kind of interesting expressions would they have?
It must be really fun!
Time passed in the blink of an eye.
Jane received a new mission from No. 7 Scientific Research Organization.
Jane glanced at the programming formula and raised her eyebrows. “Is your organization going to start. researching the photolithography machine? No wonder the missions I completed for the organization. previously were all basic algorithms for the photolithography machine!”
Since Clarence York was willing to give Jane such a mission closer to the secret center, it meant that the organization trusted Jane more.
“You’re a remarkable woman, Queen. Yes, we’ve been stuck on the lithography machine for a long time.
“For the further prosperity of our country and the development of chips, the lithography machine is necessary.
“The last time, our course was hindered by the chip technology, and we’re fed up with it.
“Fortunately, we have Mr. ***. He actually managed to figure out a solution in just three years.”
Clarence kept rambling on.
After spending so many days together, Clarence was not as wary of Jane as before.
At the same time, he was extremely happy that Jane could tell at a glance that the purpose of the programming was to build a lithography machine.
This meant that Jane had sufficient ability to help their organization develop the photolithography
machine.
Originally, the country had predicted that the development of the lithography machine would take at
least decades.
In terms of such sophisticated high-tech technology, it was impossible for them to catch up with the foreigners in a short time.
However, a game-changer, Yale ****suddenly materialized.
And there was Jane to help.
The mission given to Jane was not only completed, but she did it exceptionally outstandingly and perfectly.
Even Mr. ***kept exclaiming and praising her when he received the data from Jane.
It considerably opened his mind and enabled him to continue his research.
He couldn’t help but write a sentence on the clipboard proudly.
“She is an extraordinary genius!”
