Chapter 780
In a high-class restaurant in M Nation, Jane was currently accompanying John and his son to dinner.
"Jane, your method is really timely. I want to see how the Hughes brothers are going to deal with my uncle's affair. They must be very disappointed and embarrassed." Jack smiled as he praised Jane. The matter of sending the photo was what Jane thought, and in order to distract Edward, this method was definitely effective.
Jane smiled humbly: "Brother, I only wanted to help father off the burden. Actually, both of you don't know Edward as well as I do, in the eyes of outsiders, he is cold and heartless and even more so, unapproachable. However, the Edward that I know as well, actually was the kind of man who values loyalty and righteousness not only in regards to her external means but also towards his family. In the eyes of the two brothers, Eldest Uncle has always been a noble person."
John nodded, and looked at his daughter in admiration: "You still understand him quite well, and it's true that he is this kind of person. The influence of love and kinship will cause a Blood Iron Warrior's weakness to increase in an instant, and if you want to attack him, you will have to start from his most important point of view, which is most effective."
"Daddy, I heard he's coming to see you in two days. Are you ready to see him?" Jane raised her beautiful eyes slightly, a glint flashed across her smiling eyes.
However, at the same time, there was also another hint of ambition and unwillingness hidden within. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
John scoffed, "When I announced that I was recuperating, he used this as an excuse to visit me. He wanted to wipe me out, so of course I have to be prepared to entertain him, but I don't know what his intentions for coming here this time are."
"I think he might be here to bargain with Dad." Jane said boldly.
"Oh? What do you mean?" Jack still had a lot of admiration towards Jane, and always felt that she was a good idea.
Back then, at her young age, she could already easily capture Edward's trust, showing just how high her EQ was.
Such a woman was both terrifying and pleasing to the eye!
Jane raised her eyebrows confidently, and said with cold mockery: "Edward will definitely not target at you directly. He is currently very reputable to the business world, so if he is even suppressing his own uncle, then, this will damage his good reputation in the circle. This will definitely affect his career and the development of his company, and he will definitely not do this."
John nodded his head, feeling that her analysis was very logical, "That's right, I also think that he must be here to negotiate conditions with me, as long as I do not let go of this grudge for one day, he will always be content with it. In fact, I am also a member of the Hughes Family, and since Jack is my son, he also has the chance to fight for the right to be the successor of the Hughes's."
Jack Hughes thought about how he had actually been removed from the list, and he became extremely angry and he was unwilling to reconcile himself to the unjust arrangement, "Daddy, why did you stop me at that time and not let me compete with him? My company is developing very well now. It can be seen that I am quite talented in management. This time, no matter what, I don't want to be a bystander."
John saw that his son had a huge problem with him, he snorted and said in a serious tone, "I didn't let you fight with him before, because I wanted to reserve a second qualification for you. Don't be unconvinced now, if you are truly confident, this time, don't shrink back."
Seeing that his father had let him go along with the bet, Jack felt a lot of anger. He picked up his wine cup and smiled at Jane: "Come, Jane, brother wants to toast you. In the future, we will not only be siblings, but also partners."
Jane picked up her wine cup, smiled and nodded: "Alright, Brother, our cooperation, will definitely be very enjoyable, and we will definitely succeed."
John saw that his two children had reached an agreement. He was very pleased, and also very satisfied.
"Jane, if I remember correctly, you have been dreaming of marrying Edward all the time? What's wrong? Why did you suddenly want him dead?" Jack Hughes smiled and joked.
John's face sank, and scolded: "You're not allowed to uncover Jane's scars."
Jane's expression also changed greatly, but she quickly calmed down and said indifferently: "Before, I was foolish enough to think that I would be able to obtain rewards just by giving me some true love. Now, I recognize the reality clearly, if I don't get a man, no matter how low you put yourself in a place. He wouldn't even spare me a glance. Daddy, Brother, I want to make a request, I hope you can agree to it." The expressions of John and his son grew seriously as they looked at her and asked, "What do you want to request?"
Jane took a sip of the wine, unwillingness and pain flashing across her face: "I want to obtain Edward Hughes!"
The father and son duo's expressions were both startled. They hadn't thought that a girl like her would say such bold words.
"Jane, are you drunk?" John asked her in concern.
Jane shook her head, her eyes filled with tears of pain. She lowered her head, bit her lower lip and endured the pain as she said: "You all don't know how much love I have entrusted to Edward. I waited for him to marry me, having been waiting for him for five years, and the only thing that came was his sweet love. Does he know I love him? Actually, I have always loved him. I am not willing to accept this. Daddy, Brother, do you think that I am very foolish and laughable?"
Jack smiled, "Jane, brother understands you. Men and women, isn't that a small matter? Other than Edward's abilities, his outer appearance as tall and handsome. I believe that not only you, but many women have this kind of thought.
John shook his head instead and replied, "I really don't understand the thoughts of youngsters. However, if this is your wish, then I will naturally grant it. If something happens between you and him, it will definitely be a huge blow to his children." Jack suddenly also said sinisterly: "Jane, I'm really curious, just what kind of woman did you lose to? Is that woman beautiful?"
When Jane heard her brother's sudden interest in Felicity, she immediately sneered and ridiculed him, "She looks very average. I don't think she's beautiful. She only gave birth to two children for Edward."
Jack nodded his head, "Oh, I suddenly want to meet her. Daddy, should I take this opportunity to return home and pay respects to Grandfather and Grandma?"
