Time Travel to Become Your Sweetheart novel Chapter 40

The charity party was held at the West Hill Villa on the outskirts of City J, about an hour's drive away from the Duncan Group.

It was half past four in the afternoon. The banquet began at seven. With the time lost on the way, there was only about an hour left to choose clothes and make up.

"You don't have time to go home and change your clothes. You can find Frederic to deal with it."

After all, Jane was still Mrs. Duncan, and William wouldn't let her be too embarrassing. But he couldn't help but have a headache when he thought of the woman's taste for clothes.

There were some things he shouldn't say. If he given her advice, would this mawkish woman think that he was interested in her?

"Alright, thank you, darling."

Jane narrowed her eyes in a good mood when her little wish was granted.

Before she left, she did not forget to communicate with William. "Don't worry, I won't embarrass you. I just want to contribute to charity."

"...."

Contribute to charity? William's expression was indescribable. He really didn't want to show up with Jane. It was hard to calm down and control himself and he tended to lose his temper when he was with her.

Time was short. Jane asked Frederic for help.

Frederic didn't expect William to agree to her request. He thought that William might want to dispel the rumors about his wife being kidnapped.

"Madam, it's a bit late. The haute couture dress you want...."

If they found someone to pick up the dress, it would take at least an hour, and there would be no time to put on makeup.

Frederic checked the nearest location and shook his head resignedly. William and his wife must go together, and his boss was punctual and he couldn't bear to be late.

"Frederic, I don't need a dress. Just get me a ladies' suit."

Jane pointed at her shoes and teased. "I can't wear high heels now. They will embarrass me."

There must be a jewelry exhibition at the jewelry charity dinner. The purpose was to do charity. Jane was self-aware. She was just a supporting role.

A few days of yoga was not enough to reach a perfect figure. With the female lead's foundation, it would take at least two months.

If she wore a dress, it would expose her body's shortcomings, and Jane didn't want that.

Once again, Frederic was shocked. When did Jane become so easy-going? If she wore suit instead of the dress, they would save at least twenty minutes.

"Dresser...."

Mrs. Duncan had to wear jewelry when she went out, and there was also a dresser with her.

"Make it simple."

Jane nodded and began to prepare for the jewelry charity dinner.

....

An hour later, she sat in William's car. Considering that there might be a traffic jam on the road, William left early.

Inside the car, there was not much communication between them. William closed his eyes and didn't say a word.

Jane kept looking at her watch. When it was about six o'clock, she gave Lainey a video call.

Very quickly, she picked it up, and a big head appeared on the screen.

"Mommy!"

Dayton couldn't wait to call her. Mommy would pick him up in kindergarten recently, but she didn't today.

Dayton was very disappointed. On the way back, he kept asking Lainey.

"Dayton, I'm sorry. I stood you up today."

Jane apologized to Dayton, while William frowned beside her.

In just a few days, Dayton and Jane were so intimate. Was there something he didn't know?

William got paranoid but still maintained his composure. He opened his eyes and looked at the screen of Jane's phone.

Work was the focus of his life, and so was his family. William was strict with Dayton, hoping that his son could grow up and take charge as soon as possible.
