Chapter 1591
Ivy immediately shed tears of gratitude. "I won't. I definitely won't, Miss Jane."
"I will go in to clean now, then." Jane turned to head in with the teapot in her hand.
"Jane!" Alex called out to her, "My business here in White Ocean City is done. I'll be leaving in a day or two. From now on...
"From now on, let's never see each other again. Farewell.
"But remember, I still can't let you go..."
"You can't let go of my body, you mean?" Jane asked sarcastically.
"That's right!" Alex admitted honestly. "No one could ever serve me as well as you did! I can never find another woman..."
"You can, if you want to." Tears begin streaming down Jane's cheeks. "You can take ten women here and they would serve you a hundred times better than I do from here."
"I hope you won't regret this!"
"Never!"
"Very well!" Alex sneered and turned to leave. As he walked, he spoke to Garrett, who was behind him. " Garrett, I've given her a chance. Since she refuses to take it, we will take off immediately and head back to Kidon City!"
Yes, Master Alex!" Garrett immediately responded. Right before they left, he turned to glance at Jane sympathetically, as though he was saying, ‘Mrs.
Poole, you are too naive. How could you possibly be able to win against someone as cunning as our Master?’
Unfortunately, Jane was not looking at Garrett and therefore, she did not notice the sympathetic glance Garrett cast at her. Just as the two stepped out of the restaurant's door, Jane's phone rang. She took a look at it and did not want to answer at first, but then she thought about the fact that her mother had jumped into the ocean to commit suicide, and her body had yet to be recovered; it could be a call to inform her about it. She immediately picked it up. "Hello?"
As expected, the caller asked, "Excuse me, but is this Miss Sheen?" The caller was a woman and her tone was cold.
"Yes, I am. You are?" Jane immediately asked in a frantic manner.
"Do you have a mother?" the woman asked.
"Yes, yes, yes. where did you find my mother's body? I will go take her back right now."
The woman snorted, "What body?? It doesn't take much for me to recognize unfilial children like you! Are you planning on bailing on the payment?"
Jane was stunned for a moment, "wh- -What's wrong?"
"Your mother jumped into the ocean to commit suicide but didn't succeed, she was admitted into our hospital and has been resuscitated. Right now, we've found out that she has a heart condition and requires heart bypass surgery," the woman from the other end of the line explained coldly.
