Now we just needed the investment from the RF Group to officially rent that office space.
Jack seemed to have heard about the Shaw family's interference with renting office space in Jelaston, and looked
surprised, "You managed to rent an office?
"Yes." | nodded. "Apparently the property owner is abroad. They probably don't fear the Shaw family much, given
how far they are." "That's good." Jack nodded and began to carefully disinfect and dress my wounds, his voice
tight with concern. "Does it hurt a lot?" "Not too bad."
| endured the sharp pain and kept reminding myself that from now on, | must not be soft-hearted towards
anyone.
This world always favored the strong and oppresses the weak. It would never repay kindness with
kindness.
The next morning, Jane arrived at my house early.
She pushed the door open and, seeing that | was already up, she was a bit surprised. "Aren't you injured? Why
aren't you still sleeping?"
| put down the fashion magazine | was holding. 'Did Jack tell you?"
"Yes, he senta message last night."

Jane set down a pile of groceries on the dining table, looking apologetic, "Sorry, | went out for drinks and only
saw my phone when | woke up this morning."
"It's fine. I'm okay."
"Letsee if you're really okay."
Jane took a few large steps over, lifted my loungewear, and examinedfrom head to toe. Her eyes turned red
with anger. "You call this ‘okay? What kind of idiot did this to you?" "Bethany." | raised my wrist, still aching, and
gently patted her head. "Jane, she probably won't leave Jelaston for a while. Our path to starting the company
might be very difficult." "I'll go find her!"
Jane didn't listen to the rest of what | said and was about to leave.
| stopped her. "What will finding her do? Just beating her up won't change our situation. Will it make things better
for either of us?"
"Then what? Are you just going to suffer in vain?"
Jane was used to going all out. "Isn't it worth trading my life for hers?"
"It won't be in vain."

| told her about the conditions Zack had agreed to.
After hearing this, she calmed down a bit, looking atwith suspicion. "Is that really true?"
"Yes." | confirmed it and then asked, "Did you hear what | said before?"
| was worried it might involve her.
She, however, seemed indifferent. "Would you give up on the Charlotte Jewelry
like Bethany? If not, then I'm with you no matter what."
| thought for a moment. "Okay."
Everything else will be dealt with as it comes.

of the groundwork for the company. We only needed the RF Group's funding to move forward.
Therefore, Jane stayed withand didn't go out.
When | woke up from my nap, Jane's expression was even worse than when she saw my injuries in the morning.
Seeingcout, she hurriedly hid her tablet behind her. "You're awake?"
"Letsee."

I reached out for the tablet.
Jane knew that with the inteso advanced, she couldn't hide anything. After hesitating for a moment, she
handed the tablet to me, fuming.
The headline that caught my eye was:
"The Frost Group and The Shaw Group Announced a Marriage Alliance!"
Both were well-known prestigious families in the area, and the news quickly surged to the top of the trending list.
My throat felt as though it was blocked with a sponge. pretended to be casual and looked away. "Is this it?"
Actually, when Ryan chose Bethany last night, | had expected this to happen.
| just didn't anticipate it would cso soon.
"Is this it?"
Jane was stunned for a moment. She saw through my pretense and, looking serious for once, said, " Charlotte,
when | broke up with Tom, | found out about something... I've been afraid to tell you."
"What is it?"
"It's about your feelings for Ryan all these years."
