Chapter 152: Not Intending to Annul the Engagement

"Since the press conference has already been held, there is no reason to cancel it," Winston's face was filled with extreme unwillingness.

He was so close to success, why did Patrick have to come back at this time?

He couldn't fail now.

"Patrick, during the time you were away, I took over Pansy Group. This is also your grandfather's intention," Winston said.

"Is that so? Is it really my grandfather's intention?" Patrick's handsome face sank and he let out a cold snort from his nose.

"Winston, you secretly drugged my grandfather in order to seize power and caused him to have a heart attack. You also imprisoned him. Do you think I don't know?"

As soon as Patrick spoke these words, it was like throwing a huge rock into an already unsettled lake, causing wave after wave of commotion among the crowd:

"Was Old Pansy really imprisoned?"

"He didn't have a heart attack?"

"Did Winston really do this? Old Pansy is his godfather."

"What does being a godfather mean? How many fathers and sons turn against each other these days?"

These discussions fell into Winston's ears and his expression changed again and again as he glared at Patrick. "Patrick, don't talk nonsense!"

How could Patrick know so much? He had only just returned after disappearing for so many days! Why did he even know about the incident where he had imprisoned Old Pansy?

Winston clenched his fingers tightly together as panic set in more and more within him.

Seeing Winston like this made Patrick smirk sarcastically. "Am I talking nonsense? Let Grandpa tell you himself whether or not I am."

After rescuing Old Pansy from captivity under Winston's watchful eye , Patrick hurriedly came back for the press conference. Calculating the time frame of when they left their hideout location , Old Pansy should be arriving soon too . As soon as Patrick finished speaking suddenly there was another uproar among those present: "Old Pansy! It's really Old Pansy who has arrived!!"

At that moment two black-clad bodyguards were seen supporting an unsteady-looking old man walking towards them from outside of the conference hall entrance .

Grandpa!" With one long stride forward , Patrick quickly walked towards them while Jane stood up simultaneously with her lips curling upwards looking at him . The two of them smiled at each other before reaching out on either side of Grandpa helping support him up saying: "Grandpa are you okay?"

Old pansies looked somewhat tired but forced himself to smile bravely saying: "I'm fine."

The two of them supported Old Pansy and walked towards the center of the stage.

"Stepfather, you're not..." Winston's face turned ugly when he saw Old Pansy.

Wasn't Old Pansy supposed to be unconscious in the hospital? Why did he suddenly appear at the press conference?

This is bad... it's all over now!

"Stepfather, how did you come here?" Winston forced himself to remain calm and asked.

Old Pansy snorted coldly. "Of course, you didn't want me to come."

"How could that be?" Winston hypocritically replied. "It's great news that you're okay."

"Winston, you drugged me in order to take over the Pansy Group. You falsely claimed I was seriously ill and imprisoned me. Unfortunately for you, your plan backfired!" Old Pansy stared at Winston with a cold and stern gaze.

"I didn't do it," Winston stepped back with sweat on his forehead.

"You know whether or not you did it." Old Pansy walked up to the podium and cleared his throat. "I announce that today's press conference is canceled. Patrick will continue as CEO of the Pansy Group."

"As of today, I am removing Mr. Winston from his position as vice president of the group; he will no longer hold any position within our company."

In front of everyone present, Old Pansy had given enough face-saving measures for Winston after all.

After all these years raising him like a son only for him turn out so heartless.

Pitying him but also angry at him.

Old pans finally gave some leeway by just kicking him out from The pans group

The press conference ended hastily; reporters surrounded Old Pansey wanting an interview:

"Old Pansey, what happened when Winstone imprisoned you?"

"Why would your stepson do this?"

"Did Winstone sever ties with your family?"

One question after another was thrown at old pansey while Patrick furrowed his brow; Morton quickly stepped forward understandingly: "I'm sorry everyone but old pansey won't accept any interviews today."

Patrick and Jane helped old pansey leave while walking out through doors they were met by Osborn who hurriedly approached Jane towering above her.

Jane lifted her eyes only to see Osborn standing before her looking relieved she was alright!

"Why?" There was a hint of confusion in Osborn's eyes.

Jane took a deep breath." Because I love him."

Osborn's face darkened a little. "Don't you know what he did to you? He has deceived you and betrayed you!"

"I know," Jane's voice was quiet," but I still love him. There are too many memories and commitments between us to give up easily."

Osborn was silent for a moment, then finally nodded," Well, wait until you figure it out. But whenever you need my help, you can come to me."

Jane smiled and looked at Osborn. "Thank you. In fact..." She paused. "It's not because of Patrick. It's because of my family..." She told Osborn the whole story.

After hearing this, Osborn clenched his fist and said, "These people are disgusting! If you need my help, don't hesitate to ask!" C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Jane looked at him gratefully." Thank you, really."
