Chapter 150: I Will Never Let You Down in This Life

"But we have no evidence," Jane pursed her lips, a hint of seriousness in her delicate eyebrows. "It's been so many years, even if there were any clues left behind back then, they've probably been destroyed by now."

Patrick's knuckles tightened as he spoke coldly and firmly. "No matter how much time has passed, if it was him who did it, there will definitely be traces left behind!"

"Yes, but our priority right now is to expose Winston for imprisoning your grandfather and attempting to seize power," Jane's eyes flashed with determination.

She wouldn't let that despicable man Winston succeed!

Patrick turned his head and looked deeply at Jane before embracing her tightly. His expression was full of deep affection as he spoke. "Jane, thank you! For staying by my side during this difficult time."

As she rested in Patrick's embrace, Jane reached out and lightly touched his forehead. "Silly boy, I'm your fiancée after all. Of course I'll share the good times and the bad with you."

Patrick held onto the woman in his arms tightly as he made a lifelong promise in a low voice. "Jane, I will never let you down in this lifetime."

A warm current surged through Jane's heart as she met Patrick's deep gaze with hers. "You better keep your promise."

"Of course!" Patrick said before leaning down to kiss her deeply.

Morton returned to Pansy Group only to be stopped by Winston's assistant who informed him that Mr Sidney wanted to see him.

"I know," Morton nodded before taking the elevator up to the 18th floor where the CEO office was located.

The office used to belong solely to Patrick but had since been taken over by Winston who seemed oblivious about reigning himself in.

Morton knocked on the door before entering cautiously asking: "Vice President Lin? Did you need me?"

Winston sat on what used to be Patrick's chair when Morton walked into his office; looking up at Morton once he entered: "Have you thought about what we discussed earlier?"

Thinking back on what Patrick had just told him moments ago; Morton pretended hesitancy: "I haven't really decided yet..."

"What else do you need?" Winston stood up abruptly from his seat walking towards Morton slowly while saying: "He who knows when enough is enough will always have enough."

Seeing that Morton still appeared uncertain; Winston continued speaking: "You're not unaware of our current situation are you? It has been days since we last heard from Patrick after his plane crash - things aren't looking good."

My stepfather is seriously ill in the hospital, and he entrusted me to manage Pansy Group well for Patrick. The current situation is that no one can serve as the president of Pansy Group except for me."

As he spoke, Winston handed a check to Morton. "As long as you promise to vote for me at the press conference, this money will be yours. In addition, I will promote you to vice president."

"Really?" Morton seemed convinced and took the check.

"Of course." Winston smiled confidently.

Two days later was the day of Winston's press conference.

It was a sunny day with blue skies and sunshine. The press conference was scheduled for 2 pm.

Jane and Patrick woke up early that day. Patrick sent a text message to Morton: [Are you ready?]

Morton quickly replied: [Everything is going smoothly!]

"How's it going?" Jane walked over with concern in her voice.

Patrick smiled softly and kissed Jane on her forehead like a dragonfly touching water. His eyes were gentle as he said, "Everything is going smoothly. Now we just have to wait for Winston's press conference."

"That's good," Jane breathed a sigh of relief. "I'll go first while he holds his press conference so we can relax our guard when he does it; then you hurry up and rescue Old Pansy with your people."

"Mm-hmm," Patrick nodded lightly.

At exactly 2 o'clock, the press conference began on time in the meeting room of Pansy Group building surrounded by reporters inside out.

Jane disguised herself slightly before blending into the crowd and finding an inconspicuous corner seat in the meeting room.

She went separate ways from Patrick who led his team to rescue Old Pansy at hospital while she attended this news release first just see how things would turn out here at this moment

Surprisingly enough though Beatrice followed behind Winston sitting next him on stage

The host cleared his throat with a smile before saying: "Welcome everyone attending today's news release event held by Pansy Group; firstly let us invite Mr. Panzy's mother Miss Beatrice onto stage giving us some words."

Bai Qingqing?

Why did Beatrice appear at this news release event?

In Jane's surprised gaze, Beatrice walked onto the stage in a black dress and high heels. She cleared her throat and began to speak, "Good afternoon everyone. I believe that all of you have heard about the unfortunate news regarding my son Patrick. He was involved in a plane crash on his way back from France and has been missing for over half a month now despite our strongest search efforts. His fate is unknown."

"Given the current situation, after much discussion by our Pansy Group board of directors, we have decided to elect a new suitable candidate as our CEO."

As soon as Beatrice finished speaking, everyone began to discuss it.

Although Beatrice's words were tactful, they also indicated that Patrick's chances of survival were slim; otherwise Pansy Group would not be holding this press conference so urgently.

Moreover, even Patrick's biological mother had said so herself while dressed in black - it was highly likely that he was no longer alive.

It seemed like Pansy Group had only kept quiet about this news for stability purposes.

Jane couldn't help but feel cold at heart when she saw how Beatrice treated her own son like this.

Although their relationship wasn't good, Jane never expected that Beatrice would go so far as to support Winston on stage with her own arms - did they share some kind of secret?

This could also explain why Winston could easily imprison Old Pansy without any resistance.

Jane bit her lip and turned cold-faced at the thought of how hurt Patrick must feel knowing his mother treated him like this.

"Mrs. Pansy," one reporter asked eagerly," Does the board already have an answer regarding who will be the next CEO?"

"Of course." Beatrice smiled faintly before turning towards Winston who sat at center stage. "After careful consideration by our board members' election process unanimously passed Mr. Winston as our next CEO."
