Time Travel to Become Your Sweetheart novel Chapter 95

William lit a cigarette and spat out smoke.

In the yellow lamplight, his face looked mysterious. His eyes shone like stars, and people couldn't understand what he thought from his expression.

"What do you think of our current situation?"

William pondered for a moment and looked into Jane's eyes. He casually extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it into the crystal ashtray.

"Situation? It's not good."

Jane frowned and leaned back against the pillow.

The female lead should have died, but she was still alive now, which indicated that she had deviated from the original plot.

However, Jane was certain that William would live to see the end of the story.

"Last time when I was kidnapped, the man in the black suit who was the mastermind ran away. The kidnappers do not tell where he is now. I think perhaps they told the truth. They really don't know."

She was reminded of the kidnapping and the attack at the charity jewelry dinner.

If she hadn't protected him, William would have been injured. At that time, the reporters were all there, so the news would definitely be leaked.

Within a month, there were two accidents. They were deliberately caused by someone. What's more, on their road home from the amusement park, a car followed behind their car.

"In conclusion, I think that someone wants to do something bad to the Duncan Group."

After Jane finished speaking, she realized that her conclusion was not completely right. The targeted object was not the Duncan Group but the Duncans.

"Yes."

William agreed with her. He found that she was not as stupid as he had imagined, so he reminded her.

Jane could save herself when being kidnapped, so she must be brave, intelligent, and had a good psychological quality.

He had doubted Jane, but it didn't make sense.

These days, William had been convincing himself. And the shareholders' meeting gave him the chance to find the answer.

"Is there anything strange today?"

William took out a bottle of red wine and two glasses from the cabinet.

Dayton was sleeping in the bed. They put on their clothes and went to the balcony.

In winter, the cold winds blew stiffly and the leaves fell off the trees, and the sky was cold and dark.

On the second floor of the Duncan's, one could see the street lamps on the path outside. The view was spectacular.

"Have a drink and get warm."

William handed Jane a glass of wine. The coldness was better than a cigarette that could keep him sober.

"Alright."

Jane took it. She didn't expect that she could get along well with William. Even though she had long suspected that the wine was poisoned.

They were family, so they should trust each other.

Jane drank it up happily.

William was surprised. Jane looked like she was drinking the poisonous thing.

"I think it's not poisoned. But you may put some hallucinatory drugs in it. Then you can do anything to me."

The atmosphere was nice and Jane made a joke.

Indeed, what had happened today made her feel strange. The problem at the shareholders' meeting was not surprising.

"I haven't had any contact with Black since graduation. She called me and asked me if Andrew is here."

Jane was surprised by the fact that Andrew's blind date was Black.

After all, the Duncan family had a good relationship with the Floyd family. And Andrew and William had been friends since they were kids. Andrew went to the Duncan's more frequently than his home.

Jane could understand why Black had told Harrison where Andrew was. But she didn't expect that Harrison would come here and took Andrew away.

"Last time, Andrew was also taken away by Harrison and his men."

William shook his wine glass with a deep expression. Andrew went abroad six years ago and he just came back, so it was natural that his family paid much attention to him.

"Listen to me."

Jane held her chin, perhaps she was thinking too much.

She felt puzzled about Harrison's actions.

It was late, so it was rude for him to enter the house and take Andrew away without permission.

Although Harrison had said that he wanted to apologize for it, he should know that Colin had slept at this time of night.

"When Harrison came in, I was walking to the door. He didn't look for Andrew at first, but glanced over at the living room."

Jane frowned. Even Andrew didn't know Colin was in a coma, but Harrison seemed to know it.

If he knew, what did that mean?

"Someone has leaked the news to the Floyds."

In Duncan's mansion, a dozen servants worked in its main building and many other servants worked in its garden.

"It seems that the Floyds can't wait now, so you can tell."

William leaned against the chair, then he was in the shadows.

He had doubted the Floyds before, and now, he was sure of his judgment. They must be planning something.

"But I thought your family had a good relationship with the Floyd family."

Jane did not understand, because the relationship between their families was good. But people could do everything for the sake of profit, so it made sense.

But it may be arbitrary to make a conclusion just based on one point.

"You're not surprised at all."

William carefully observed Jane's expression. When she heard his words, she was slightly surprised and quickly calmed down.

"Why should I be surprised? Everyone wants to be the best, let alone Floyd Group is almost as strong as the Duncan Group."

For many years, the Floyd Group was lost to the Duncan Group, so how could the Floyds just sit and do nothing?

Although they behaved like good friends, they didn't know what the other party really thought.

They had been cooperating for common interests. Once the balance is broken, their interests may be affected.

"Does Andrew know that?"

Jane only cared about Andrew's thoughts. After all, William had few friends and he was one of them.

"I don't think so. He is a sentimental man."

They grew up together, so he knew Andrew never cared about the money.

"If Andrew values your friendship, he will also value his family."

Once Andrew discovered the plan of his family, he would be tortured.

They didn't have conclusive evidence, so they couldn't prove it. Maybe they were wrong.

"We'll know the answer soon."

William only wanted to tell Jane that she had to be on guard.

"Daddy, Mommy, why don't you sleep with me?"

Dayton rubbed his sleepy eyes and said childishly.

He dreamt that his mother and he were kidnapped, and they were waiting for his father to save them, but his father did not come.

Dayton writhed in fear and fell down on the ground. He awoke from his dream and found that his parents weren't in bed.

"We're going to sleep now."

Jane blushed when Dayton asked. Fortunately, the light was dim and he couldn't see her red face.

In the conversation just now, William gave her an impression that he was cold but cared about his family.

"Am I going to have a little sister?"

Dayton covered his mouth and yawned. He held Jane's hand and said, "Daddy, Mommy, can you sleep with me now? I had a nightmare and I'm scared."
