Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Patrick’s overwhelming kiss left Jane feeling like she was suffocating.

The familiar sensation made Patrick uncontrollably desire more…NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

He imprisoned Jane’s head with both hands, deepening the kiss.

The kitchen’s temperature rose steadily.

Suddenly, Jane caught a whiff of something burnt.

What’s that smell?

She took a few deep breaths, realizing the unpleasant odor was getting stronger.

Jane’s gaze fell on the iron pan on the stove, where the fried eggs had turned black, and black smoke was billowing around the pan.

She forcefully pushed Patrick away, exclaiming, “It’s burning!”

With Jane’s exclamation, Patrick, who had his back to the stove, released her.

Turning around, Patrick quickly turned off the gas stove.

Distracted by his attempt to get Jane’s attention, he had forgotten about the frying eggs.

Jane stared at the man in front of her in disbelief. “Patrick, are you crazy?!”

Taking a step forward, Patrick placed both hands on Jane’s shoulders, his tone serious. “Yes, I am crazy. Crazy for wanting you like this.”

Jane:…

Patrick continued, “Just now, you thought I injured my hand. You cared and worried about me. In fact, you still love me, right?”

These unexpected sweet words caused Jane’s heart to skip a beat.

Facing his deep gaze, Jane’s face flushed slightly.

Turning away, Jane changed the subject, “It’s not early; we should get to work.”

Saying that, Jane turned around and headed for the door.

But Patrick reached out, stopping her at the waist.

With a slight force, Jane once again fell into his embrace.

“Jane, come back to me, okay?” Patrick nodded slightly, his eyes filled with the tenderness he only showed in front of Jane.

Jane’s breath caught. “Don’t do this.”

“Jane, what do you want to see from me to come back?” Patrick looked at her deeply, asking seriously.

Jane bit her lip. “Show me with your actions.”

Watch him perform?

Did that mean she was hoping again?

A meaningful smile curved Patrick’s lips.

This woman was stubborn but soft-hearted.

One day, he would make her accept him again, return to his side.

With Patrick driving, they arrived at Pansy Group together.

Jane opened the recent sales data for “Ice and Fire” and examined it closely.

After a series of improvements, the sales of “Ice and Fire” had seen a significant increase.

However, the market was still flooded with imitations of “Love Jewelry.”

Jane rubbed her forehead; it was time to take the initiative and counter these imitations of “Love Jewelry.”

While she was formulating a detailed plan, the landline on her desk rang.

Internal line 888, it was Patrick calling.

Jane picked up the phone. “Patrick, is something wrong?”

“Come to my office,” Patrick’s cold voice sounded.

“Okay.” Jane agreed.

Taking the elevator to the eighteenth floor, Jane knocked on the CEO’s office door.

“Come in.”

Jane entered and walked to Patrick. “Do you need something?”

Patrick glanced at her. “Are you prepared for this afternoon’s press conference?”

“Yes.” Jane nodded.

“At that time, I will clarify the North Sea Bay project.” Patrick spoke in a low voice.

“How do you plan to deal with Candice?” Jane asked calmly.

Patrick’s handsome face turned cold. “Dismiss her.”

“Is dismissal the only thing you plan to do?” Jane’s eyes narrowed coldly.

Patrick sighed lightly. “Jane, this is something I owe her.”

Jane, expressionless, replied, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work.”

With that, Jane turned and left.

Just as she walked out of the CEO’s office door, a woman in a white dress walked towards her, blocking her way.

Jane looked up, and there stood Candice.

Wasn’t she supposed to be in the hospital? Why was she suddenly here?

Jane raised her eyebrows. “Please move aside!”

Candice glared at Jane with anger. “Jane, do you think you’ve won? I owe Patrick my life, and the one he loves is me! You’ll never beat me!”

“Is that so?” Jane spoke calmly, “If I remember correctly, you’ve already been dismissed by Patrick, haven’t you? Now you’re no longer an employee of Pansy Group and have no right to be here.”

Jane glanced at Morton not far away and raised her voice a bit. “Assistant Lin, it seems the security here has been a bit lax lately. Anyone and everyone can walk in, huh?”

Morton understood and walked over. “Miss Dillon, I apologize. Please leave.”

“I’m here to see Patrick!” Candice’s face changed, glaring at Jane.

At that moment, the CEO’s office door opened, revealing Patrick’s tall figure.

“What’s going on?” Patrick heard the commotion outside and stepped out.

As soon as Candice saw Patrick, she quickly walked to his side, pitifully saying, “Patrick, my wound hurts.”

Patrick’s gaze fell on Candice’s chest, his voice cold. “If your wound hurts, why aren’t you staying at the hospital?”

“I missed you.” Candice grabbed Patrick’s arm, her voice pitiful. “Patrick, I know you’re angry with me. I know I was wrong. I came here to apologize. I’m sorry, Patrick.”

“The person you should apologize to is not me but Jane,” Patrick coldly said, withdrawing his arm without a change in expression.

Jane, it’s Jane again!

A hint of resentment flashed imperceptibly in Candice’s eyes.

Right in front of Patrick, she suddenly knelt down.

“Miss North, I’m sorry. I was confused and made a mistake. Can you forgive me?” Candice knelt in front of Jane, her eyes red.

Jane was speechless. “I can’t afford this.”

“Miss North, if you don’t forgive me, I won’t get up!” Candice said while reaching for Jane’s arm. “Miss North, you’re a big-hearted person; don’t be mad at me.”

“Patrick, get her out of here!” Jane frowned, giving Patrick a look and pulling her arm away.

Candice suddenly fell to the ground, crying, “Miss North, if you won’t forgive me, fine. Why did you push me?”

Okay, this drama of the pure white lotus has begun again.

Jane looked down at Candice, sneering. “Who pushed you?”

Candice covered her chest, pale-faced, and looked at Patrick with tears streaming down her face. “Patrick, my wound hurts so much!”

Fresh blood flowed down Candice’s chest, staining her white dress red.
