The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 94

Jane was grinding her teeth in consternation.

Beside her, Jacelyn was clinging intimately to Danny’s arm while sizing Jane up at the same time.

Truth be told, when she saw the gorgeous Jane emerging from that fancy car, Jacelyn was immediately overcome with envy.

What’s more, Jane herself hadn’t spared her so much as a single glance, and Jacelyn was not pleased by that one bit.

Having heard something interesting, she whispered to Danny and Luke, “Goodness me, that Jane really gets around! She’s got powerful friends, buys an expensive car like it’s nothing… but does she have someone special? Perhaps, rather than those big tycoons, she might have picked up some new toy boy!”

Smack!

The moment Jacelyn said that…

Jane slapped her right across the face. “You’d better watch your mouth. What’s this ‘toy boy’ nonsense?”

“Did you just… slap me?!” Jacelyn held her face, quite nearly slapped senseless.

Jane seemed ready to strike her again.

However, Luke caught her hand. “Jane, dear, tell us if there’s any truth to Jacelyn’s words. Have you gotten yourself a pet lately?” He seemed genuinely nervous about this.

“Let go of me, Luke! What business of yours is it, whomever I like?” At this point, Jane sorely wished she’d stayed in the car. Even if Luke had caught sight of her, all she’d had to do was step on the gas and make a break for it.

Now, there was all this talk about tycoons and toy boys… She had gone through so much trouble to improve her image with Gerald, and now, all that had gone to waste!

But the more she behaved this way, the more Luke feared it might be true.

D*mn it, how much money had he spent on this girl already? And to think she’d been keeping a little something for herself on the side?!

Gerald sat in the car, listening to them squabble.

There wasn’t much to be said.

Jane loved money. Gerald had known that all along.

Once a hostess at some hot springs resort up in the mountains, she now held an executive position. There was no way she wouldn’t have some dirty little secrets here and there.
