Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Chapter 1108 Old General Steps Forward



This marked the beginning of her entertainment career in her home country, propelling her to great renown in the entertainment industry, although she had disappeared during this period.

“I’m grateful to have you as my boss, and I feel blessed to have you as my best friend. I believe this is our fate from past lives, and my good fortune to have this result.”

April spoke passionately, and Jane quickly tried to calm her down, emphasizing their sisterly bond.

They chatted every day, avoiding getting too emotional or tearful over past memories.

Instead, they focused on envisioning the future, and after Jane said a few words, April’s tears turned into smiles again.

This was all due to the psychological and emotional effects of pregnancy. Even the strongest or most rational person could become more sensitive when pregnant.

A more emotional person is even more prone to mood swings during pregnancy, and while irritability could arise, fortunately, April had not shown signs of that.

Only recently, her emotions had been a bit low due to concerns about the baby, but after making adjustments, everything had returned to normal.

After chatting for a while, Jane went back to her room and checked on her children.

Patrick was playing with the two kids, aware that Jane needed emotional support.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Therefore, he did not object to Jane visiting April, only reminding her to take care of the baby in her belly and that nothing else was important.

Watching Patrick play, Jane smiled.

A few days passed, and the year-end was approaching.

Jane saw Patrick organizing company summaries and reports during his free time.

Although she wanted to help, Patrick prevented her from doing so.

“You need complete rest now, and everything else is not your concern. If you’re bored, you can chat with me or April. Even if you want to watch the nanny cook, I won’t object, but if you want to do things, forget about it. I don’t want my child to suffer!”

Jane shook her head in resignation and sat down quietly.

Following Patrick’s orders, she only spent a moment working before returning to bed.

Watching Patrick work from bed, Jane felt a bit sorry for him, as he often worked while the kids were asleep.

“You seem exhausted these days. I wonder when you’ll finish the reports. I want to help, but you won’t allow it!”

Patrick replied with a smile, “I’m not that tired, it’s just a few more days. Once I finish these reports, I’ll relax. It’s because of the numerous year-end company engagements.”

“My father is shuttling between various companies for visits and greetings, so I have to temporarily focus on managing the company.”

Knowing the sacrifices Patrick and her father had made for her unborn child, Jane understood the situation.

Originally, Patrick’s father had intended to hand over the company to Patrick and enjoy a calm retirement.

However, due to Jane’s pregnancy, Patrick’s father had to step up again, assisting Patrick in running the company.

Mainly, they dealt with external company relations, involving meetings with suppliers and sales partners, requiring continuous company visits.

It wasn’t just about business but also about maintaining personal relationships between companies. Only when personal relationships were well maintained could future collaborations occur.

“Your father is working too hard. Please remind him not to drink too much; his body can’t handle it at his age. It’s not the age to drink excessively!”

Jane thought Patrick might not be thorough in this regard, but she was mistaken. Patrick reassured her.

“Don’t worry, there’s an assistant to take care of that. I’ve already told them. I know that my father, despite his age, may struggle even though he’s running around various companies. As for drinking, the company’s staff will take care of it. Our clients will understand because we have shown our utmost sincerity.”

Jane nodded.

She realized that as long as Patrick started working and continued to establish business connections, their relationships would be strengthened.

“It’s the best we can do. If we can sort everything out before the new year, then we’ll have to wait until next year for the rest!”

“I hope our company and your baby in your belly both grow up healthy and successfully next year. I have confidence in that.”

Patrick’s father had been busy to the point of being restless these days, with some companies starting to sum up their work internally.

Thus, they needed to meet with these companies before going back to their own company for the final review.

Jane made a phone call, realizing it was time to express her gratitude to Patrick’s father.

Both she and Patrick stayed at home, while an old man of that age was running around everywhere. It didn’t sit right with Jane.

If not for Patrick’s persuasion, she would have let Patrick return to the company. Of course, Patrick’s father also prevented that from happening.

If the old man had not strongly disagreed, Patrick might not have been able to convince Jane with words alone.

“I told you my dad wouldn’t agree.”

Patrick looked smug, making Jane frustrated. She was getting a bit bored these days, but there was nothing for her to do. Patrick kept a close eye on her, not allowing her in the kitchen or even to wash her children’s clothes – everything was left to the nanny.

If the nanny was too busy, Patrick awkwardly washed the clothes himself.

“Just spoil me like this. When I become lazy in the future, after giving birth, who will take care of you guys? I’ll be lazy like now.”

Patrick was even more pleased to hear this.
