Chapter 396
Jane’s face was cold.
Why was Jack here?
Jane knew that Jack had gone to yesterday’s and today’s events.
Since she could not stop him, she just ignored him. She had a clear conscience.
But how could the Fowlers know about the hotel where Jane was staying?
Could it be…
Was Jack stalking Jane?
With the Fowler family’s ***and despicable nature, Jane did not doubt that they could really do such a thing!
At first, when Jack heard Jane’s voice, Jack thought that he had misheard.
“You… Jane, why are you here?”
Jack was happy today, so he drank a bit too much. He thought that he was hallucinating and could not help but rub his eyes hard.
Otherwise, why could he hear Jane’s voice here? A coincidence was not likely.
Even if everyone mocked Jack today because of Jane’s glory, Jack was still proud of Jane
He was proud of having such an outstanding daughter.
Even though Jack deeply understood that he no longer had the right to feel this way, he could not help but be overjoyed this time..
This was a national matter. It was something that every patriot of the nation would be excited about!
Therefore, Jack invited a few good friends, who had business dealings with Jack and also attended the banquet today, to the restaurant to have
a drink.
Because he was drunk and too happy. Jack chose to stay at the nearest hotel available and sent Peter a message. He planned to walk back to the hotel alone to sleep and sober up.
However, he seemed to have received some kind of guidance from above.
Jack arrived at this secluded path.
It was there he encountered Jane.
A cold wind blew past.
Jack sobered up a lot.
He realized that the girl in front of him, whose shadow was dragged out by the moonlight, wasn’t an illusion!
It was really Jane!
All at once, Jack became cautious.
“Jack, to think you said it so nicely back then. You said that if I agree to go to the hospital to see Anna, you’ll get lost completely this time!
“And now, you followed me and found out where I’m staying!”
Jane suppressed her anger and spoke
“No… Jane, I didn’t mean that! I really wasn’t following you! I just happened to be walking nearby… and met you!
“I went for a drink just now. I just came out of the restaurant. I was just walking around the area because I booked a hotel nearby! It’s true! I’m not lying to you!”
Jack explained in a panic.
At this****t, he wasn’t the dignified chairman of Fowler Corporation.
He was just a helpless father who was extremely humble to his high and mighty daughter.
Jane did smell alcohol on Jack.
