Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

“I just hope that you’ll be like this. By then, I’ll have you well-fed and plump. Maybe in a few years, we can even have a third child. It would be so nice for our little family to be together,” Patrick said to Jane.

Jane shook her head like a tambourine when she heard Patrick say this. She didn’t want to have a third child.

She didn’t feel as content staying at home like the other women did. Jane wanted her career to welcome another spring.

She wanted to do more for Patrick and make their company even stronger and bigger.

For her, she had to get back out there.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I’m not a pig, so after we have this child, don’t even think about having a third one,” Jane said while sitting and patting her stomach. She knew that some things weren’t up to her, but she didn’t want to be just a mother to a bunch of kids.

It might seem happy, but it would ruin her life, and that was not a plan she could accept. Patrick could only nod obediently.

But what he really thought, only Patrick knew. Jane was satisfied when she saw him agree.

She went to the next room to look at their sleeping son. For her, this was the happiest moment.

Having her loved one by her side and seeing their child grow up healthy too.

If this could continue, it would be fine for her. It just felt like the days were getting longer.

Jane hadn’t been to the company in the past few days, and many online users were very concerned. This forced Jane to announce that she was expecting her second child. Many online fans also left messages blessing Jane.

“I really hope to see Jane’s baby born soon. Not only can we see Jane come back, we can also see more programs featuring artists in the company,” one user wrote.

“Despite the great adversity, we still see the most sincere smiles. Now, the heavens have given Jane a smile, so they reward her with a child. We wish you the best!” another user wrote.

Jane was moved when she read these comments. If those people’s malicious words had made her disappointed, it would be like she had put in so much effort and only received baseless accusations.

But now, the ending was different, and it made her very happy. She knew that in the face of online attention, some users would have other intentions.

Whether they genuinely care about their loved ones or just want to grab some attention, as long as they weren’t being malicious, Jane could accept it all.

Even if there were some people who wanted to achieve their own goals during this process, it was okay.

Patrick looked at Jane sitting there. There was a lot of work in the company these days, all of which needed to be handled internally.

Patrick had already approved various reports and plans, and now everyone needed to study them carefully. Jane was urging Patrick to go.

“I have nothing to do at home. Go to the company and handle everything for the end of the year, so we can start the new year off well!” she said. “Don’t let my being at home affect your communication with them through phone and video calls while looking at the reports.”

Jane believed that many things in a company could be reflected in the reports, but if they wanted to make decisions or plan for next year, that was impossible through a report alone.

There was a lot of data to study, and every detail needed to be communicated. And each department’s thoughts needed to be known. Any difficulties had to be coordinated.

If it involved other departments, it was necessary for those departments to express their actual difficulties.

So, it was very hard to achieve this purpose through just exchanging reports and video conference calls.

“I don’t want to go. If I do, it’ll take a week, and I won’t be able to come back. After all, the time it takes to visit various companies is gone, and I’m worried about you being home alone.”

“Even if it means slower communication through video, it’s just wasting a few days. It won’t affect our plans for next year,” Jane replied.

Jane shook her head; that wasn’t how she saw it. She had already thought this through. Patrick was now a real stay-at-home father, not only staying at home and playing with the kids every day but also staying with her.

This was very dissatisfying. While she had sweet feelings at first, she had to think about her company. It was their future career and economic support. How could she allow Patrick to decide their company’s annual development so carelessly?

“Just one week. It’s not long, and now we even have a nanny. She’ll also take care of me; just let me play with the kids for a bit!” Jane said.

She knew that the people in the video were just a small part. Even if they reported their work, it didn’t mean that it represented the actual situation.

To know the actual situation, they had to go down themselves and see it with their own eyes. After seeing it with others’ eyes, they could sit in front of a video and talk about it, but this way, there could be a lot of inaccuracies and even some things that didn’t reflect the truth.

Jane didn’t want the company to be like that, nor did she want that kind of deviation.

That was why she was also persuading Patrick for these reasons.

“No matter what you say, I won’t listen. If they really need me, it will be at the final stage. Right now, don’t worry about it; I won’t let the company deviate from our planned path,” Patrick said.

Jane heard that Patrick didn’t agree, and she comforted him a few times, but Patrick’s stubborn temper was up, and despite what Jane said, Patrick didn’t agree.
