Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Chapter 216: Jane Falls into the Water



“Freda, what are you doing?” Osborn swiftly blocked in front of Jane, grabbing Freda’s hand.

“Today, I’m here to settle the score with this shameless homewrecker!” Freda stared fiercely at Jane, portraying the image of a rightful wife catching the other woman in the act.

The reporters Freda brought with her surrounded Osborn and Jane, aiming their cameras and microphones at them, and flashes of light continued to flicker.

“You all saw it! Jane, this shameless fox!” Freda raised her voice and addressed the reporters, “She clearly knew about my engagement with Osborn but insisted on interfering. Now, so many eyes have witnessed it!”

Freda’s delicate face now looked somewhat sinister, her beautiful eyes bursting with resentment, as if she wanted to stare a hole through Jane.

Freda had loved Osborn since her youth. The first time she saw him, she fell for this handsome and extraordinary man with a touch of melancholy.

However, in Osborn’s eyes, she was only considered a match for a political alliance. He had always been indifferent to her.

When the Maltz family faced an economic crisis, and the Maltz Group was on the verge of bankruptcy, Osborn, too, was in a slump, drinking heavily and sinking into despair.

The Huggins family wanted to annul the engagement with the Maltz family, but Freda disagreed because she genuinely liked Osborn.

Freda’s elder brother, Calvin Huggins, forcefully sent her abroad, forbidding her to see Osborn again, cutting off all contact, and spreading rumors that she had run away with someone.

During these years abroad, Freda indulged herself, dating many boyfriends, including powerful CEOs and promising young talents. Yet, none of them was someone she genuinely liked.

Because she still couldn’t forget Osborn.

In these years, Osborn had become a national heartthrob, a popular movie star, and the Maltz family had surpassed its past glory.

At this moment, Calvin brought up the old matter, summoning Freda back.

But Freda didn’t expect that, upon her return, all she saw were overwhelming rumors about Jane and Osborn.

She had tried to find Osborn, attempting to explain that there was more to her leaving than met the eye, but Osborn refused to see her at all.

Freda harbored a deep resentment and vowed to win back Osborn.

Today, she deliberately brought bodyguards and reporters to “catch them in the act.” She was determined to ruin Jane’s reputation!!

Osborn was hers; no one could take him away, including Jane!!

Reporters crowded around Jane and Osborn. They had witnessed the intimate and ambiguous actions between the two on the lawn just now.

“Mr. Maltz, can you clarify the nature of your relationship with Miss North?”

“Mr. Maltz, today is your birthday, but you only spent it with Miss North. Does that indicate an extraordinary relationship between you two?”

“Miss North, in response to Miss Huggins accusing you of being the third party, what is your opinion?”

“Miss North…”

Facing the reporters’ onslaught, Osborn’s face turned pale. He stood in front of Jane and cleared his throat before speaking in a deep voice, “This whole thing is entirely fabricated. I will make a public statement to explain everything later.”

The reporters pressed on, “Mr. Maltz, what do you mean by a public statement?”

“You’ll know when the time comes.” Osborn shielded Jane behind him and spoke solemnly.

Next week, he would officially annul the engagement with the Huggins family at the awards ceremony and propose to Jane.

At that time, everyone would witness their relationship in the open.

He didn’t want Jane to suffer any injustice.

Freda witnessing Osborn defending Jane was glaringly irritating.

She took a step forward, commanding her brought bodyguards, “What are you all standing around for? Beat this shameless homewrecker for me!”

Regardless, she was determined to teach Jane a lesson today!

“Yes, Miss!” The bodyguards responded, moving toward Jane.

“Don’t get involved!” Osborn shielded Jane with his own body.

He regretted a bit that, for the sake of being alone with Jane tonight, he had dismissed all the household staff and bodyguards.

Now, he was outnumbered, and Freda had brought dozens of bodyguards.

“Osborn, this is none of your business!” Freda approached and forcefully pulled Osborn away.

Simultaneously, multiple bodyguards surrounded Jane.

Watching the approaching bodyguards, Jane raised an eyebrow.

Dealing with these people was a piece of cake for her.

However, there were still so many reporters on the scene.

If she knocked down all these bodyguards, who knew how the reporters would twist the story tomorrow.

That was a bit tricky.

Thinking it over, Jane took a few steps back.

The bodyguards closed in step by step, and just as Jane reached the edge of the pool, Freda suddenly rushed over and harshly pushed Jane into the pool, “Jane, you shameless homewrecker, go to hell!”

Jane’s full attention was on the bodyguards. She didn’t expect Freda to make such a move so suddenly. Caught off guard, she slipped.

“Splash!”

A loud noise, and Jane fell into the water.

Water splashed everywhere, and Osborn anxiously exclaimed, “Jane, Jane!”

He wanted to jump in to save Jane, but the bodyguards held him back.

Seeing Jane sinking, a bodyguard next to Freda hesitated and said, “Miss, should we go down and save her? If something fatal happens, it won’t be good, especially with so many reporters around…”

“No one is allowed to save her! This is the fate of a shameless third party!” Freda sternly commanded.

Blinded by hatred, she had made up her mind to teach Jane a lesson.

Even if Jane really drowned, Freda was confident that, with the Huggins family’s influence, she would be fine!

“Jane, Jane! Let me go!” Osborn struggled free from the bodyguards and rushed toward the pool.

At that moment, a tall figure, moving faster than Osborn, unhesitatingly jumped into the pool.

“It’s Mr. Pansy!” a journalist in the crowd exclaimed.

All eyes focused on Patrick.

Freda was stunned; why was even Patrick here?This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Patrick jumped into the water and swam directly toward where Jane fell.

He submerged, saw Jane, grabbed her, and pulled her into his arms. “Jane, are you okay?”

“Patrick, what are you doing?” Jane stared at Patrick, utterly speechless.

She could swim, and Patrick knew that. Why did he feel the need to rescue her?
