Chapter 16
Both of them were stunned.
Dan gave Jane a look, telling her to go back to her room and open the door.
Standing outside was Josh, who looked anxious.
“Dan, I heard that you beat them….” Before he could finish his words, he saw the blood on Dan’s body
and couldn’t help gasping. “My G od, it’s true!”
“It’s just those gangsters,” Dan said lightly, “Besides, the fight was not too serious. They won’t die.”
“Isn’t it serious?” Josh pulled him aside and whispered, “One’s internal or gans have been broken!
They are sending him to the hospital in Cardiff now!”
Dan’s eyebrows twitched, his face still expressionless.
They asked for it. He should kill them after they teased Jane.
“By the way, you broke the other man’s leg?” Josh was anxious. “Do you know who that man’s father
is?”
“It’s none of my business who his father is.”
“Dude, they will take revenge on you!”
Dan took off his shirt, threw the bloodstained clothes aside, and took out clean clothes to change into.
He knew those bullies came from influential families, maybe the governor’s son or the mayor’s nephew.
He had long wanted to deal with this group of people.
“Why don’t you leave your wife and find a hiding place?” Josh suggested. “These people are not easy
to deal with. You’re a brave man. Don’t confront them head-on!”
Dan felt like he was too noisy.
Just as she was about to refuse, she saw
Jane standing at the bedroom door.
“I don’t think… we need to hide,” she whispered.
Dan was stunned and then asked her with interest, “Why?”

made a mistake first. We were defending ourselves!”
Dan looked at her with appreciation. He didn’t expect that she looked weak, but deep down, she was
independent and strong. She was not afraid of anything.
He smiled.
“I know it’s not your fault!” Josh helplessly continued, “But their families are powerful…
“I don’t care about this little bit of power.” Jane smiled faintly. “Besides, no matter how powerful they
are. They can’t bully people at will.”
Josh was speechless.
“Yes,
my wife is right.” Dan stood beside her. “That’s more like my woman.”
Jane blushed slightly and lowered her head.
Josh sighed. “You guys…”
“All right, thank you for your kindness. Dan patted him on the shoulder. “Would you like to stay for
dinner?”
Josh hurriedly waved his hand and bid farewell.
Although he was not afraid that those people would make trouble again, he still considered moving out
of the village.
When he fought with those gangsters today, they must have seen that he was not the same Dan as
before. Maybe one day his identity will be exposed.”
So it was better to leave as soon as possible.
A few days later, Jane moved to Cardiff with Dan.
When Dan talked to her about moving, she was a little confused. However, the reason was that there
were more opportunities for development in Cardiff, and it was easy to find a job, so she did not say
anything more.
Moreover, in the city, which was close to the hospital, it was more convenient for her to take care of her
mother.
They rented a small house. Although it was not large, Jane still cleaned up the inside and outside. He
also bought new curtains and sheets.
The dining table was covered with a square apple-green tablecloth, and a few purple lilacs were in the
glass vase on the windowsill.
Dan looked around and thought of his past life.
His villa covered an area of tens of thousands of square meters and was built along the mountain. It
was as grand as a castle, and every corner was decorated with a luxurious atmosphere.
The world’s top chefs cooked every meal he had.
But all of this was not as good as here, not as clean and warm as this small world, not as good as the
sandwich Jane cooked for him.
“What’s wrong?” Jane looked at him with his big bright eyes. “Are the dishes not to your taste?”
Dan smiled slightly. “They are excellent.”
Then you should eat more.” She added, “By the way, Kate introduced me to a job in the company she
works in now. I can go to work tomorrow.”
“So soon?” His eyes froze. “Is the company listed? How much is the annual income? Who is the person
in charge of the company?”
Jane was stunned by his questions.
She hadn’t asked so many questions yet. Besides, she was just a small saleswoman at the bottom of
the social ladder. How could she manage the person in charge of the commission?
“Well… I’ll ask them after I go to work.”
However, on the first day of work, she never thought her supervisor was Adam Frank.
That morning was tough. During the meeting, she always felt that Adam’s eyes were glancing at her
intentionally or unintentionally. As soon as the meeting was over, she wanted to run out of the
conference room as if she was fleeing but was stopped by Adam.

Jane’s body stiffened, and he turned around with a forced smile.
“Long time no see.” Adam put away the computer and walked up to her. “I haven’t heard from you since
graduation. I didn’t expect to meet you in the same company. Do you think this is fate?”
Jane was a little embarrassed.
Adam was her senior in college. At that time, he had pursued her very enthusiastically, but she had
refused him,
Firstly, her mother was still ill and she had to take care of her family, so she was busy.
Secondly, Adam was really not her type.
It was not that he was ugly, but that this man was too good at scheming. He was very snobbish in the
student union, which left her with a bad impression.
“Mr. Frank,” she said softly, “If there is nothing else, I will go to work first.”
“Hey, don’t worry!” Adam grabbed her arm.
Jane dodged to the side and kept a distance from him.
“Jane, don’t be so formal with me.” Adam smiled. “Don’t call me Mr. Frank. Just call me Adam as
before!”
“You are my supervisor. I have to show you respect, Mr. Frank.” Jane said.
Adam narrowed his eyes. He liked her on this point. She knew the rules, when to advance and retreat,
and what to do.
Moreover, after graduation, she seemed to have become more and more beautiful…
Adam felt a surge of heat rising from somewhere.
“Jane.” He approached her intentionally or unintentionally. “If there’s anything you don’t understand,
feel free to ask me. The door of my office is always open to you….
Jane had been hiding behind the conference table and didn’t know what to do. Suddenly, she heard a
sharp voice outside.
“Adam!”
The woman was dressed glamorously. She leaned against the door frame and crossed her arms in
front of her chest. “Jane? Are you talking with Adam? Why didn’t you come to say hello to me?”
