Chapter 316
Jacob hid in his bedroom in the mansion, drinking Lafite from 1982 now and then.
However, Jacob still broke out in cold sweats from time to time
No matter how well the temperature in the bedroom was adjusted, it was useless,
During this period, Leia sent a lot of messages.
Jacob was not in the mood to take a look
“***it, what the ***is wrong with me?
“It’s just a little brat brought by a woman. How can a look from that brat make me so afraid?”
Although Jacob was obscene, ****, and cynical, he was not an ****
Especially since Jacob was born into such a top-notch wealthy family, no matter how much he did not want to study, he had his own ways to judge people under the influence of others.
Just based on Rain’s gaze, Jacob felt that this man was definitely not an ordinary person
Jacob seemed to have accidentally offended someone he could not afford to offend at all
*Forget it. I have already hidden in my home. My mansion is equipped with the most advanced anti-theft hacking system. No matter what he can’t hurt a single strand of my hair.
“It’s just my illusion. After I sleep, everything will be fine tomorrow.”
Jacob comforted himself and was about to get up to take a shower
Suddenly, with a crack, the lights went out
Jacob’s heart skipped a beat
“What’s going on? Why is there a blackout here?
“Hey, someone, come on! Start the backup generator!”
Jacob was about to rush out of the bedroom and find bodyguards to protect him.
The next second, Jacob suddenly felt weak and was paralyzed on the ground, twitching non stop
Before Jacob closed his eyes, a pair of feet appeared in front of him.
The man kept getting closer and muttered like a demon as if Death descended
The next day, when the maids who came to work in the mansion opened the door, they saw corpses all over the mansion and couldn’t help but
scream.
Sam arrived at the company in the morning and met Henry
Henry said calmly, “What’s wrong? Sam, from the looks of it, did you not sleep well last night?”
“Henry, what did you mean when you said that to me back then?
“You said that Jane has the ability to resolve this matter alone. You are right, Jacob was indeed very ****in front of Jane at first. *Jacob does have the right to be ****. However, later, he was directly scared away by the man who was with Jane.”
Sam recalled what he had seen at the coffee shop yesterday
Even now, Sam was still in disbelief.
Actually, Sam was already prepared to go out and help Jane at that time.
No matter how much Sam hated Jane, Jane was still one of the Fowler family.
Jane had the Fowler family blood
Jane was the daughter of the Fowler family as well as their younger sister, and only they could ***her.
Sam couldn’t stand others ****Jane.
If so, it would make people look down on the Fowler family.
And yet, such an outcome was unexpected.
“It’s already enough for you to know about this. Don’t interfere in this matter anymore.”
Henry would never say that Jane was Queen on the Darknet out, even in front of the Fowlers
This wasn’t just for the Fowlers’ good.
It was also Henry’s final promise to Jane.
Henry had promised that even if he knew Queen’s true identity, he would not reveal anything.
This was once Henry’s only promise to his master as an apprentice.
Even if he had to die, Henry did not want to trample on this promise.
This was the last stubborn way for Henry to retain his memories with Jane, even if in Jane’s eyes, it was so ****
Even if Henry really died, the damage he had caused to Jane could never be changed.
“Henry…”
“I don’t want to repeat myself, Sam”
Sam looked at Henry’s determined gaze and did not dare to ask further
Sam could only take out his phone and look for the photo of Leia and Jane that he had secretly taken yesterday.
“Henry, do you know this woman?
“When Jane spoke to her, I heard Jane say this woman is wanted by the Fowler family
“That’s strange. If this woman’s the Fowler family’s enemy and is wanted by the Fowler family, why don’t we know anything?”
Sam pointed at Leia in the photo.
When Henry saw the photo, his gaze involuntarily froze on Jane’s face.
It had been a long time since Henry last saw Jane after coming to Eastshel
Henry invested all his time and energy into the development and layout of Fowler Corporation’s business in Eastshel
Henry tried to use his busy schedule to numb himself and forget everything that had happened in Stormton City, the damage he had caused to Jane, and his deep, heart-wrenching guilt.
However, when Henry saw Jane’s photo again, everything that he had done to forget all this was instantly torn into pieces.
Henry had always used the most fragile disguise to protect his heart which was riddled with holes, yet he still became sad from time to time. How could that fragile disguise block Henry’s thoughts on and guilt for Jane?
Jane looked thinner than before, and she was fairer.
When Jane was confronting Leia, her brows were shining, and her every move was filled with confidence, like the crescent moon in the sky. emitting a cold and distant moonlight, so attractive.
Once one looked at Jane, one couldn’t take their eyes off her anymore.
So, after leaving the Fowler family and sending these ***brothers to ***one by one, Jane lived a so happy life.
In Jane’s life, without the Fowler family, without such a blood relationship, she would have a better life.
Jane already had companions that she cherished and wanted to protect.
There was no need for Jane to have these muddleheaded elder brothers. At first, they always hurt Jane wantonly. Later, they felt so guilty that they even wanted to die as an apology. Now, they would never have a chance to make it up to Jane even if they wanted.
“Henry? What are you thinking about?”
Sam could not help but speak after seeing Henry staring at the photo for a long time.
“I’m sorry. I don’t know this woman either.
“However, since Jane said so, there might be a reason. Send the photo to Aaron.
“Aaron has always been in Stormton City. He might know something. Don’t let Dad and Mom know about this first.” “Okay.”
Sam could tell that Henry was reluctant to part with Jane and sighed in his heart.
It had been so long.
Henry still hadn’t let go?
At this moment, a call came in.
Henry picked up the call and frowned imperceptibly when he heard the report.
“What did you say?”
