Eden Howard froze for a mont, then glared at Xavier fiercely: "Are you actually threatening ?"
Xavier stepped forward and grasped Eden Howard’s hand again: "Little Eden, how could I bear to threaten you.
It’s true that I have evidence of your brother’s corruption.
But having been with you for so long, I would rather betray Jane Quinlan than ever betray you, right?
Why do you think I’m doing this? Think about it, if it wasn’t for loving you, why would I do such a thing?
Little Eden, the words ’breaking up’ might be simple for you, but I can’t accept it.
I can’t break up with you, so... We’ve had our quarrels, and break-up has been shouted out, now, let’s just let these misunderstandings pass, okay?
I only have you now, I can’t let go of your hand."
Eden Howard’s gaze was cold as she looked at Xavier, and in his eyes looking back at her, there wasn’t much sincerity either.
After a mont of eye contact between the two, Kay Forrest inside the car clicked his tongue.
What’s this, frozen in place?
The show isn’t over yet.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before Eden Howard reached out and embraced Xavier.
Her voice had turned much softer: "Now that you know this thod can keep , why didn’t you use it earlier to hold onto ?"
"Because I want to hold onto your heart."
Eden Howard moved slightly away from his embrace: "There’s a very good way to hold onto my heart, I just don’t know if you’re willing to do it."
Xavier raised an eyebrow: "Just say it. How would I know how far I’m willing to go for you if you don’t tell ?"
"I hate Jane Quinlan, if you want to co back to you, then either she or I must leave the company.
You decide, choose her or .
If you choose , then I’ll give you one month to make her leave the newspaper.
If you choose her, I will resign tomorrow, and we will never cross paths again."
Xavier fell silent for a mont, not making an imdiate decision.
Eden Howard was displeased: "What do you an? You say you love , but your heart won’t choose first.
Your actions now are insincere, do you understand that?"
"Little Eden, I also want Jane Quinlan to leave.
I’ve been feeling uncomfortable about her being in the sa company even after we broke up.
But she’s rather fortunate. She’s already been transferred to Skyward Group, it’s not like we can just ask her to leave."
Eden Howard stepped forward and held his wrist: "So, you’re choosing , right? Since it’s you’ve chosen, then think of a way.
Don’t tell there isn’t a good way to make her leave on her own accord.
I refuse to believe, considering how well you know her, that you wouldn’t have a way."
"This..." Xavier sighed: "Little Eden, actually... I’m good friends with Jane Quinlan’s cousin.
If I did such a thing rashly, Jane Quinlan would definitely tell her cousin about it.
Then I wouldn’t even have a friend left."
"That’s why I said you’re a coward. You want love, yet you tremble in front of your ex-girlfriend.
What is Eden Howard lacking, to accept a man who still holds feelings for another woman in his heart."
After saying this, Eden Howard turned to leave.
Xavier reached out and grabbed Eden Howard’s wrist: "If I agree to drive Jane Quinlan away, would you be willing to marry ?"
Eden Howard raised her eyebrows: "Drive Jane Quinlan away first, then co propose to ."
Xavier hesitated no more, nodding: "Okay, I’ll make her leave."
"During this ti we shouldn’t let anyone know we’re back together.
I also need to save so face for myself, being easily won over by you again doesn’t speak well of my dignity.
You need to let be angry for a while longer."
Xavier smiled and nodded: "No problem, once Jane Quinlan has left the company and I have proposed to you, we can then announce our situation."
The two who had been arguing were now happily reconciled and left.
Kay Forrest coldly watched as the two walked away and then rolled up the car window, closing his eyes to rest.
Such scum was actually working under him.
And that Strong Howard is a problem as well.
Evidence of corruption, hmm... He reopened his eyes, a wicked smile curling upon his lips.
It seems I need to do sothing.
Otherwise, that foolish girl Jane Quinlan will be at a loss.
Kay arrived at the office half an hour later, even without Jane Quinlan calling him again.
Seeing him arrive, Jane Quinlan grabbed her notebook and quickly followed into his office.
As soon as the door closed, she imdiately revealed her true self.
She ran up to his desk and looked at him as he lay on the boss chair, feet propped up on the desk.
She asked: "How is it, did a little nap make you feel any better?"
