Chapter 26
Hector’s heart was stuck in his throat.
Even through the phone, he could feel Dan’s anger.
“Did I ruin his plan?” he wondered.
Hector looked at his watch and slapped his head. Da mn it! If he had been interrupted while having fun,
he would have torn that person into pieces!
“Dominic…” He explained with a flattering smile. “If it weren’t for the emergency, I wouldn’t have called
you now. I thought you didn’t go to bed so early…
“Say what you want to say!”
Mike growled angrily, turned around, walked to the balcony, and closed the door behind him.
“I’m afraid you’ll have to make a trip back to Central City.” Hector lowered his voice. “Now that the news
that you’re still alive has spread, your father is very excited. And your uncles and aunts, they’re all…
“Okay, I got it.” Dan frowned. “I’ll contact them privately, but I can’t return to Central City for now.”
Hector was confused and could only reply with an “Oh.”
“By the way, I’ve checked the client your wife met today. Ava couldn’t get his order after pestering him
for three months! Ha… I’ve used a little trick and helped your wife get the order. There’s a lot of
commission. She can get 15,000 dollars…”
Dan held back his anger and hung up before Hector could finish his sentence.

“What did I say wrong again?”
Tristan almost fainted from laughter.
“You ruined his plan. How could he be nice to you?”
Hector was full of regret and kept slapping him.
“Also, Jane has signed the order. Why did you talk so much?”
“This…” Hector widened his eyes. “Did I speak too much again?”
Tristan rolled his eyes at him and said, “Ava has been with the client for three months, but now a
newcomer has taken her down. What do you think people will say about Jane?”
Hector was speechless.
“Besides, I’ve read Jane’s sales plan.” Tristan sighed softly. “It’s flawless. Even if you don’t say
anything, Mr. Shaw will sign this order!”
“So it’s not your credit, understand?”
Hector’s face distorted. He wanted to cry but had no tears.
“Think more in the future!” Tristan patted him on the shoulder. “Alas, I really should have studied
medicine back then to treat your brain!”

Chapter 24
Dan leaned against the balcony railing, and his deep eyes seemed to merge with the night without any
ups and downs in his emotions.
The evening wind blew with a trace of coolness, and he sobered up a lot. After a while, he turned back
to the room, Jane was no longer in the bedroom. He looked around and heard a slight sound from the
washing machine in the bathroom.
Jane also saw him. She smiled.
She was a little shy. She lowered her head, separated the washing clothes one by one, and said softly,
“Go to sleep. I’ll wash the clothes
Dan sighed softly and walled internally.
It was painful to be interrupted suddenly.
Now, he had to hold it back.
It was as if tens of millions of bugs were slowly corroding his body, itchy and empty.
But he couldn’t act like a lecher in front of her. He couldn’t force her to sleep with him again.
So he forced a smile, returned to the living room, and threw himself on the sofa like a heavy hammer.
The news that Jane had signed the order quickly spread throughout the company, and even some
seniors in the sales department locked at her differently.
She had taken no orders in the past two months, but signing a big order at once shocked her
colleagues.
At the weekly meeting of the sales department, the director praised her and said that she had great
potential and gave her a bonus to encourage her,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJane silently observed everyone’s gazes.
Some congratulations came from the bottom of their hearts, while some applause was hypocritical.
Some showed their jealousy, like Ava openly.
However, Jane didn’t care about that. She only cared about the number on her bank card,
“Ha, she’s good at acting!” When she passed by the pantry, she heard someone talking inside. “When
the director praises her, she looks calm as if she is very experienced.
“Maybe she is!” Another shrill voice laughed, “The purer she pretends to be, the more interesting she
becomes!
“What have you heard?”
“Shh… The person lowered her voice. I heard that someone helped Jane get this order!”
“Who is it? Is it Mr. Frank? I heard that he had chased after Jane in college, but Jane rejected him.”
“It shouldn’t be him. If there is such a good thing, why did he give it to Jane instead of his girlfriend?
Besides, Ava hasn’t signed the order for three months. Adam wouldn’t be able to sign it either!”
“You mean… there’s a bigger shot above Jane?”
They whispered in each other’s ears and then burst into laughter.
Jane felt bored and turned to leave. He didn’t expect to meet Ava’s murderous eyes when she turned
around.
She was shocked. Her heart was beating fast, but she still looked calm.
“How are you, Ms. Zeller?”
Ava crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at her with a sneer. “Ha, how can I be good with
you around me all day long?”
