Chapter 717  Avoiding Jane

~~*****~~

[ At SYP Twilight Corp… ]

Nathan lost his motivation to work as his mind was preoccupied with the thoughts of Jane and what Mr. Hiroshi had said. He absentmindedly stared at his laptop when Axel suddenly arrived.

"Sir, I\'m back." Axel\'s voice snapped Nathan back to the present. He shifted his gaze from his laptop to Axel.

"How did it go?" Nathan asked Axel. He was referring to Jane\'s visit to the police station. "Where\'s Jane?" There was a hint of longing in his eyes when he mentioned Jane\'s name.

"Everything went well. Miss Jane was satisfied with her confrontation with Veronica. However, she was a little bit disappointed when she didn\'t see you." Axel reported.

"She just dropped by somewhere and is heading here to see you," he added.

Nathan\'s eyes gleamed when he heard that. But the sparks disappeared almost immediately when he remembered Mr. Hiroshi\'s threat. The old man made him feel that he didn\'t deserve to see Jane at all.

He turned his chair around, avoiding eye contact with Axel. His back was now facing Axel. "Just tell her I\'m not here. I can\'t see her today," Nathan said in his stern voice. He was suppressing his emotions. He clenched his fists tightly. His heart was against his decision. But his mind was telling him this was the right choice for the moment. He didn\'t want Mr. Hiroshi to hate him further. He would like to gain his trust. Meeting Jane against Mr. Hiroshi\'s will would only put him on his bad side further.

Furthermore, disobeying Mr. Hiroshi could cost his men\'s lives. He couldn\'t selfishly sacrifice them for his desire to be with Jane.

Meanwhile, Axel was surprised by Nathan\'s odd behavior today. Something was off with him. "Sir, are you deliberately avoiding Miss Jane?"

Nathan didn\'t respond. He just sighed deeply. "Don\'t ask questions. Just do as I say." "Okay, sir. I understand." Axel had no choice but to follow his Big Boss\'s command.

Unknown to Nathan, Jane was already on her way to his office. She was about to enter the building when Kazuki showed up, stopping her at the entrance door of SYP Twilight Corp.

"Lady Jane, you have to come with me. Your father is looking for you," Kazuki said.

Jane frowned as she finally realized that someone was following her. If not, then how come Kazuki suddenly appeared from out of nowhere?

\'My father is serious about separating me from Nathan. What a stubborn old man.\' Jane complained inwardly.

"Uncle, go ahead first," Jane mumbled, smiling at him. She feigned innocence, pretending that she didn\'t know anything about her father\'s true motive. "I\'ll just meet Nathan shortly. Then I\'ll go home." She reassured him.

However, Mr. Kazuki received a strict and direct order from her father. They should prevent her from meeting Nathan.

"This is urgent, Lady Jane. Your father needs to see you. Can\'t you see him next time?" Kazuki tried to convince her.

Jane just raised her eyebrow. But her expression remained neutral. "Uncle. I just want to say goodbye to Nathan. I\'m leaving tomorrow. Can\'t I just see him today before I fly to Country J tomorrow?"

Jane had a point. Kazuki heaved a sigh of defeat. \'Fine. Just only today. Besides, her engagement with my son will be announced tomorrow.\' He decided to let her go today, allowing Jane to see Nathan for one last time.

Kazuki stepped to the side, making a path for Jane. "Just make it quick. I\'ll wait for you here. Let\'s go back home together."

"Sure, Uncle! See you later." Jane walked past him, not looking back. She already missed Nathan. She couldn\'t wait to see her man. Furthermore, she owed him a reward.

When she reached Nathan\'s office, Axel immediately approached her.

"Miss Jane, my CEO is not here. He went out for a business meeting," Axel lied to her.

Jane narrowed her eyes at him. Just a while ago, Axel confirmed that Nathan was in his office. But now that she finally came, Axel was telling her Nathan was not around.

"What business meeting? And where? Why didn\'t you inform me earlier?" Jane sounded upset.

Axel could only smile apologetically as he scratched his face. "I\'m sorry, Miss Jane. I was preoccupied. My work piled up. I don\'t know the location of their meeting. I just heard that it was urgent."

"Why didn\'t you accompany him?" Jane probed.

"Hmm…" Axel didn\'t know if he could continue his lies. He hoped Jane wouldn\'t notice. "My Boss asked me to stay behind to deal with the paperwork."

\'I\'m sorry, Miss Jane for lying. I hope you won\'t kill me if you find out. I\'m just following my Boss\'s order.\'

"Alright. I\'ll just drop by the Sparks Mansion later." Jane was feeling down without seeing Nathan\'s face today. She had to see him no matter what. She didn\'t know what would happen in Country J. But she needed to give him a heads-up.

Jane was about to leave when Nathan\'s temporary secretary approached Axel, handing over some documents. "Sir, can you give this to our CEO? We need his–" The secretary didn\'t finish her words since she was warned by Axel\'s sharp gaze, signaling her to stay quiet.

But it was too late. Jane had already heard her. She turned around to face Axel, her eyes staring at him intently.

"You said Nathan went out. Did you just lie to me, Axel?" Jane questioned him, trying to suppress her rage.

Axel couldn\'t utter a word. He could feel immense pressure from Jane\'s gaze. He regretted telling her a lie. He felt like Jane was going to punish him at any moment. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I\'m gonna ask you again, Axel," Jane said in her authoritative voice.

Axel and the secretary were intimidated by her presence. Both of them got chills upon hearing her serious tone.

"I\'m sorry, Miss Jane! I just followed my superior\'s order." Axel immediately motioned for Jane to enter the office. He could no longer stop her from meeting Nathan. It was so hard to offend Phantomflake. She might beat him up.

Without saying a word, Jane stormed inside Nathan\'s office. the double doors were flung open with force.

"This is your fault. Just pray that our CEO will not fire you after this," Axel said to the secretary as he watched Jane\'s back.

The secretary pursed her lips and bowed her head. She was about to cry. She didn\'t want to lose her job.
