Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy -
Chapter 938
Edwards arrived at the company at 9.30 a.m. However, in the company's main hall, he saw a person. It was Jane Wayne. Why was she here?
The man's expression changed, but he still walked straight towards her. "Why are you here?"
Because of John Wayne's relationship, Edwards became cautious of her, so when she appeared in the main hall of his own company, he had to suspect that she had some ulterior motives. Jane Wayne pursed her lips and smiled at him, showing her sincerity.
When people interact with others, the sincerity written on their face is the easiest to make the other party let down their guard.
Therefore, Edwards's expression became slightly startled. He did not know if it was because he was overthinking things, but he felt that Jane Wayne's return trip this time was different from the past. Only, Edwards couldn't tell what was different.
First, it should be her dressing. In the past, she always loved to wear a bit of celestial elegant and light - colored dress, but now, every time she saw her, she was wearing dark or grey clothes.
"Edwards, don't worry, I'm not here to cause trouble for you, nor am I here to replace you to talk about the old days. Can you not look at me like that?" When Jane Wayne saw that Edwards was sizing her up, she felt a pain in her heart and bitterly lowered her head and said.
"Then why did you look for me?" Edwards slightly raised his brows, still not trusting her.
Because he knew her too well, he knew that some of her pure smiles were just a disguise.
"Can we not talk here? Will you invite me to your office?" Jane Wayne's expression was still extremely serious.
"Follow me!" Edwards said indifferently.
If John Wayne really planned to send Jane Wayne over to spy on him, then that would be too foolish of him. Because he was not afraid, Edwards did not need to be afraid to bring her up there.
Jane Wayne lowered her head and silently followed behind him. Inside the elevator, she could not help but turn and look at Edwards.
The man's tall body gave off a sense of security, making people want to rely on him.
Edwards's eyes remained level and did not respond to her gaze. Her heart felt hurt, and had no choice but to lower her gaze.
Arriving at the office, Edwards raised his hand, took out his utmost patience, and said: "You have five minutes. I'm going for a meeting!"
Jane Wayne was not unhappy by his words. She nodded, and then, she kneeled down.
"What are you doing?" Edwards's expression froze, and his eyes revealed a hint of chilliness.
"Edwards, I want to apologize to you. I am serious, please make me kneel and say it!" Jane Wayne had truly realized that she was on the wrong side of the team and had committed a grave mistake. For the sake of her conscience to feel better, she had to do this.
"What is it? Get up!" Edwards looked at him expressionlessly, and said coldly.
"No, I feel ashamed to stand up. I know I'm guilty. Edwards, I am sorry, I nearly caused you harm. You are my most important family. My brain must have been damaged at that time. I actually helped John Wayne to harm you!" Jane said in a serious tone. Jane Wayne cried as she spoke. She could not control the sadness in her heart.
Edwards remained unmoved, and only coldly stood to the side and watched her acting.
"Why did John Wayne want to send you here again? Are you recording? Or are you shooting a video?" Edwards still did not believe her. He gave a cold snort.
"No, no, I didn't, John Wayne didn't ask me to come, I wanted to apologize to you myself, and I wanted to help you!" Jane Wayne suddenly raised her head, her expression showing more sincerity.
"Help me?" Edwards mocked before pointing a finger at her, "You should be well aware of what you have done. Do you want me to forgive you for your sincere confession? Jane Wayne, if it was before, I could still forgive you as you were my little sister. But now, I really cannot be merciful to you."
"You don't need to be lenient with me. You can send me to the police station at any time. Even if I have to spend the rest of my life in prison, I have nothing to say. I'm just feeling very guilty and self- reproachful." Jane Wayne said as she covered her face in pain.
"Oh? You actually want to go to jail? Jane Wayne, what kind of tricks are you playing this time?" Edwards really could not believe that she was serious about these words. Once, when she was so proud and treasured the life before her so much, could she abandon her rich life?
"I am willing. I am willing to redeem my sins!" Jane Wayne's eyes were filled with tears as she looked deeply at Edwards, muttering word by word: "I am truly willing." Edwards squinted his eyes, although he was suspicious of Jane Wayne's character, but she looked like she was crying and it did not seem like she was acting.
"Why are you helping me? I can't give you any benefits!" Edwards crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking cold and heartless.
"I don't need any benefits. I just need to make John Wayne die!" As Jane Wayne said till here, she gnashed her teeth with a face full of hatred.
Edwards's expression changed again as he stared at Jane Wayne sharply: "Did you guys fall out?"
"I respect him like a father, but he uses me like a chess piece. I hate him, I wish he could die!" Jane Wayne thought about the dark life she had led in the past few days and clenched her fists hatefully. Edwards walked over and squatted in front of her. Looking at her expression which was trembling with hatred, he asked while frowning: "What did he do to you?"
As soon as Jane Wayne was cared for by him, her tears instantly flowed down and she sobbed, "He... he gave me to an old man. Edwards, I am already filthy, filthy beyond belief. I don't even have the courage to look at you anymore."
"Is there such a thing?" Edwards trembled slightly. He never thought that John Wayne would actually be so heartless to his foster daughter and give her to another man to trample on. This was really too inhumane, too excessive.
"I never thought that he would do this at the beginning. He probably saw that I was useless, and felt that I would be caught sooner or later, so he abandoned me and asked me to accompany that man. Edwards, I have thought about dying countless times, and I can't stand such a filthy self, but I can't bear to die, I still haven't come to apologize to you, and I haven't personally witnessed John Wayne being brought to justice." Jane Wayne swatted her shoulders, crying so hard that her tears fell like rain.
Edwards asked coldly: "Who is that old man?"
Jane Wayne immediately said: "Tommy!" "It's him?" Of course, Edwards recognized this man. He could be considered to be someone who ruled over a region now. Even if he had just a little bit of petroleum in his hands, he considered himself a big shot in the business world. He didn't expect that John Wayne would catch up with him so quickly.
"Yes, Edwards, I really didn't lie to you. I really want to stand by your side this time, and I hope you don't doubt me. Don't worry, I will definitely not entangle you emotionally, I know I don't deserve it!" Jane Wayne lowered her head with an expression of grievance and pain.
Edwards reached out and helped her up, "Show me your sincerity."
