Chapter 332 He’s Taken The Balt
After Jeffrey got into the car, he gave Melanie a call. “Finished work?” His tone was somewhat muffled.
“About that… I’m so sorry. I’ll probably reach home pretty late tonight.” Melanie apologized from the other side
of the line.
“What are you working on again?” Jeffrey wasn’t in a good mood.
“I got a few more orders after the exhibition, and I need to deal with it overnight. I need to finish drafting the contract as soon as possible so that the sales department can follow up tomorrow.”
“Can’t you do it at home?” he asked again.
For some reason, he wanted to see her; he felt suffocated in his loneliness.
“I’m working overtime with my colleagues. It’s easier to communicate with each other face to face.”
“I see.
Melanie seemed to sense his mood and said with a smile, “I promise that I’ll finish work on time tomorrow
night!”
“Sure. I have some things I need to do at the company as well,” he said, thinking of an excuse for her sake.
In the Morgan Group’s building, Jane was about to punch out and leave work on time. She was going back to her rental apartment that Nathan had arranged for her, planning to use the public transportation route he had
also planned out.
Her phone was loaded up with lots of information regarding Jeffrey, and she couldn’t help but look through his
photos.
What a perfect man!
He was born into a family that had both wealth and influence like the Morgans, and he also had a huge business empire, not to mention a face that would make so many fall for him!
And when she saw him in the flesh, he was even more captivating than in the photos!
When she ran into his arms, she could feel the powerful muscles in his body, as well as the cool scent tha
only men had.
In that moment, she couldn’t help but feel her heart thumping uncontrollably. If it weren’t because she remembered Nathan’s warning and arrangements, she would have been stunned just by seeing his face.
Ring!
Her phone rang.
When Jane saw the numbers, she immediately picked up the call without delay. “Mr. Quinn…”

“What did Jeffrey say?” Nathan’s voice from the other side struck fear into her heart.
“He… said nothing…” she stuttered.
“What did you say?!” Nathan yelled.
“It’s true… He didn’t say anything. Not even a word…” Jane was so scared that she almost teared up.
Nathan became silent for a few seconds before warning her. “I’m warning you. My men are all around you. All
your actions are within my view. Don’t think that you can escape me just because you have your finger
wrapped around Jeffrey! You can lose your life with one wrong move, so you better think carefully!”
Suddenly, there seemed to be someone talking in the background at Nathan’s side. After he finished, he
immediately told her, “From now on, you’ll proceed to Plan B! Get off the next station, and use the sixth exit.
Then, walk toward Ginkgo Street.
“I understand.”
“Leave your umbrella in your seat. Don’t take it,” Nathan told her again.
“Alright…”
Jane was scared. She had plenty of questions in her mind, but she didn’t dare to ask why.
“Do you still remember what to say when you meet Jeffrey?”
“Yes.”
“You better if you know what’s good for you!”
After saying that, the call was hung up, leaving behind the beeping sound.
Soon after, the train announced that her stop was here, and Jane got her umbrella out of her purse and- intentionally left it on the seat. She then did as Nathan ordered her, and turned around to walk toward Ginkgo
Street.
“Turn around. Return to the company.”
Jeffrey hung up the call and ordered his driver.
To think that the madam would stand his boss up at a time like this… William couldn’t help but be anxious for
the both of them.
At this time, William’s phone rang, and he received all the information that his subordinates had managed to find out about Jane. After finishing, he then passed his phone to the back. “Boss, all the information you want
is here.”
Jeffrey took the phone and read while William said, “This is all the information about her from her elementary school years to her graduation from university. It doesn’t look like there’s anything wrong…”
Jeffrey looked at it without saying a word.

Suddenly, it started raining heavily, and the car slowed down.
When he was almost at the company, William suddenly shuddered as he looked outside the window. Jeffrey saw how out of character he was acting and looked out as well.
Under the rain, a woman was running as she held her purse on her head. She was all wet.
“Boss…?”
William turned around and looked at Jeffrey, feeling bad for the employee. “It’s Jane Kelley… Looks like she’s
going back to the company.”
Jeffrey frowned deeply, looked at the information in his hand, then ordered thunderously, “Stop the car!”
