Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

However, there are times when a person’s thoughts may differ from their actions, leading to a different course of action in reality.

This is when, after a careful balancing act, one’s interests triumph over their moral boundaries, prompting such decisions.

If a person were truly steadfast in their moral principles, they would not make choices like the one at hand.

Such choices border on the unethical, such as bribing others to take photos, which is morally reprehensible.

Moving further along the edge, the reporter from the entertainment magazine instructed those around him.

“Remember, do this without a trace. You are here to assist me, but once we are out, do not utter a word, as it would have repercussions for both of us.”

“If things go awry and the consequences are severe, neither of us will get away unscathed. I do not want this promotion opportunity to turn into misfortune.”

Although the entertainment magazine reporter was excited at heart, he knew how to make the right choices. While the current situation had some impact on him, he was mindful of avoiding complications.

After a few phone calls, he managed to find a nurse through a friend.

While the nurse couldn’t access Jane’s child’s ward daily, there was still an opportunity.

The nurse agreed to take a few pictures of the child after receiving two thousand dollars from the reporter.

However, the type and timing of the photos were uncertain; the nurse could only promise to provide them as soon as possible.

Satisfied, the reporter left, eagerly anticipating the outcome.

About an hour later, he had the photos in hand.

“All set. You guys stay here and watch. If anything comes up, call me immediately. I’ll head into the car now to prepare this report.”

“Also, did any of our people at Patrick’s company capture anything yet? Has Patrick’s company made any response?”

The reporter hoped to create a series of articles this time.

The reporter wanted to capitalize on this opportunity, hence the instructions to others.

As the leader of the reporter group, he believed his proactive actions would lead to a promotion.

He was more than just focused on his tasks now; he was attentive to the overall situation.

Upon returning from making calls, his team informed him.

“There is no response from Patrick’s company. The security is tight at the gate.”

“Many netizens are gathered there, waiting for an explanation.”

“I’m confident Patrick’s company can’t hold out for long. They must have an emergency plan to handle this situation temporarily.”

Patrick’s company was in turmoil.

Netizens were curious about the truth of the matter.

Jane was utterly disappointed, and some online comments caught her eye.

Yet, she couldn’t find the time to respond.

Harrison and Patrick’s father rushed to Patrick’s company upon hearing the news.

Seeing the reporters and netizens crowded there, they hurried to the hospital.

They knew Jane was in a terrible state now.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

They were worried that Jane wouldn’t be able to handle the situation, looking after the child and dealing with the current crisis.

Harrison and Patrick’s father sat down to discuss matters.

They wanted to check on Jane’s condition.

Moreover, they wanted to explain things for Patrick; they were sure Patrick was not like this.

But they needed Jane to comprehend their explanation.

“I don’t know what to say to Patrick. He doesn’t answer his phone now, and I have no idea what he’s doing.”

Patrick’s father sighed. If he could reach Patrick, he would talk to him right away.

He believed that, no matter what Patrick had done, he needed to apologize first and then explain. How else could Jane forgive him?

And with the chaos in the company, he also needed to handle the company’s affairs for Patrick.

Even Harrison’s studio’s affairs had to take a back seat.

It was as if all of Patrick’s relatives were revolving around him now.

Everyone hoped for the truth to come out, including family members and fans who cared for Patrick.

Some media reporters, eager for a story, wanted to hear from Patrick.

Even if the truth of the story was in question, a statement from Patrick would be crucial.

When Harrison heard Patrick’s father’s words, he shook his head in resignation.

“There’s no other choice. If we could contact Patrick, things would be easier to explain. But for now, we have to face it head-on.”

Harrison tried calling Jane to no avail. If she had answered, perhaps there could have been a glimmer of hope.

Jane’s indifference showed Harrison the extent of her anger.

So, he brought Patrick’s father into the picture.

Harrison knew that sometimes, one’s efforts alone might not be enough; perhaps together, they could change Jane’s mind.

“I don’t understand what Patrick wants to achieve, what he’s doing now, or why this situation occurred.”

“The chaos in the company is overwhelming. And now, more problems have surfaced, requiring explanations. Is Patrick truly idle?”

Patrick’s father, feeling his age catching up, knew he needed to help Patrick with various other matters.

Sometimes, he couldn’t even focus on the company’s international affairs.
