Chapter 771
Chapter 771
Jane had always known about her foster father's ambitions.
He had been locked up for a few years because of Edward Hughes, so she believed that he would definitely be extremely unsatisfied as well.
These past few years, it seemed as if he had restrained all of his ambitions in the prison, but Jane had already sent him a few documents and many books about business in. She felt that her adoptive father would certainly return again.
However, she hadn't expected that John would be so impatient. He'd only just come out when the time came for him to start his revenge plan.
"Daddy, shouldn't we consider this matter a little more?" It wasn't that Jane didn't want to help him, she was just afraid. She was afraid that she would lose the life of a rich and peaceful person, and was even more afraid that John's chance to counterattack would fail.
"What else are you thinking about? Do you still love Edward? You don't have the heart to attack?" John immediately looked at her sarcastically. He felt that she had hidden her intentions towards Edward, and wasn't willing to hurt him.
Jane's expression was somewhat pale as she immediately shook her head.
"No, Daddy. I don't have any more feelings for him, and he has long been extremely disappointed in me."
When she thought about the last time when she took the initiative to go back to his hometown to look
for him and his cold and indifferent attitude, Jane's heart grew cold. In the past, she was the woman that he relied on the most and trusted the most, but now, that woman had become Felicity.
"Then what are you waiting for? How did I teach you before? I would rather destroy things that I can't get than give them up to others. Since Edward is so heartless to you, why can't you forget him? If you really try to act so cheap, then you won't be my, John Hughes's daughter." John immediately fanned the flames of hatred in her heart, hoping to persuade her and throw her into his camp.

Sure enough, John's words stung Jane. Her face became even more stiff and pale, and her two hands subconsciously clenched tightly.
John continued to fill the fire as he laughed coldly, "Do you remember that you once held five percent of the Hughes's shares? My father also really liked you back then, that's why he gave you a share. Do you know how much money five percent is worth now? Nearly three billion, if you help me take over the rights successfully, I will give you 30% of the shares. At that time, your wealth will be beyond your imagination.
At that time, she was only eight years old and the Old Master really liked her, so he gave her 5% of the shares. At that time, she was still young, and she did not know what the shares represented, but now, she had grown up, and if she had not helped her father to anger the two elders, she would probably be holding the 5% now, making her very rich.
John looked at the flickering light in her eyes and knew that his incitement was extremely effective.
Therefore, he continued to stung her, "Back then Edward liked you so much, I had thought that you would eventually marry him, but who would have thought that just because of a small mistake you made, he turned around and went to sleep with another woman, and even gave birth to two children.
Jane, don't be so persistent about love, this intangible thing, only money can give you a sense of security, and give you a better life. Edward is really too heartless, you took care of him for so long, accompanied him and encouraged him to walk out of the black shadow, but he already forgot about you. Can you really stand by and watch him hug another woman, spoil her, love her, and love her to the bone?"
"Daddy, I beg of you, stop talking, I don't want to hear this!" Jane's heart was pierced by thousands of arrows at the moment, the pain caused even her face to turn pale. She covered her ears, unwilling to hear another word.
When she saw how doting Edward was, her heart felt as though it was being cut by a knife. What made her even more jealous was that the old lady had actually acknowledged Felicity and even secretly warned her not to ruin the relationship between Edward and her.
Why?
She had clearly fallen in love with this man before, and he had clearly once fallen in love with her. But now, she couldn't get anything out of him. Even the way he looked at her was cold.
Seeing her cry out in pain, John knew that his words were working. He immediately patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Jane, don't be sad, Daddy won't say these words to hurt your heart anymore. Daddy just felt that it wasn't worth it."
"Daddy, it's fine that you came out, I have someone to rely on!" Jane was instantly filled with trust towards John, and she cried out in grief.
"Jane, help daddy out. Daddy really needs a talent like you who can do anything. Don't waste Daddy's
efforts in educating you, okay? You are father's most proud daughter, father will definitely find a man who is even more outstanding than Edward for you to marry off." After John stung Jane, he became like a father to her.
"Daddy, in the future, I will definitely listen to your words. Whatever you want me to do, I will do it, and I will definitely let Edward see how wrong it is for him to abandon me. I will make him regret it, I will trample Felicity under my feet, and make her beg me for mercy."
When John heard her imposing words, he was extremely happy. He immediately hugged her and said, "As expected of the good daughter that I painstakingly brought up. Alright, with these words of yours, your father will be at ease."
"Daddy, do you have any ideas?" After Jane calmed down, she asked him curiously.
John nodded his head, "Yes, my people have already begun to move, I just want to make the Ji's shares drop, this way, I will have the chance to buy more shares."
"Daddy, the corporation seems to have gotten into trouble these few days. Did you do it?" Jane had also been paying attention to the company's movements. She knew that the company's secret had leaked and it’s losses were not small, causing Edward to be very angry and personally investigate this matter.
"That's right, I did it. I took advantage of the time when he was taking care of Felicity. I didn't expect the results to be good. Hmph, this is only the beginning. There will be more interesting scenes for him to watch in the future." John's face suddenly turned sinister, as though he couldn't wait to show Edward who was boss.
