C29 Everything Has Me

Of course, Jane Ronan didn't know that Edwin Carter had never taken second place since he was young. After graduating to Harvard University, which was one of the Ivy League universities, he had only used half of his time to get a doctorate from Harvard.

"Then you must have been hit a lot." Jane Ronan suddenly felt sorry for him. "I really don't understand what you boys are thinking."

She added, "When I was young, I got first place in the Imperial examinations and was even sent to one of the most famous universities in the capital."

However, her ambition was not here. She did not go to the first university to report, but chose her favorite art major.

Her biggest dream was to design the most beautiful wedding dress in the world, so that every girl could wear the wedding dress she designed and be the most beautiful bride.

But that dream had ended three years ago, when she had drawn up her own wedding dress, and she had never picked up her brush again.

Jane Ronan's expression dimmed as she thought about this. The peaceful life that she had gone through so much difficulty to get was suddenly broken by someone.

The current her was pitifully timid, she didn't even have the courage to tell Edwin Carter about the past.

She wasn't sure if he would be as relaxed as he said he would be. He really didn't care about her past and only cared about her future.

Jane Ronan closed her eyes, wanting to leave his embrace. However, just as she was about to move, she was held tightly by him. She then heard him say, "Jane Ronan, I am your husband."

He had emphasized this matter more than once, and Jane Ronan couldn't help but raise her head to look at him. Under the orange light, his face was no longer as cold as it usually was, even with a hint of gentleness.

Jane Ronan nodded and smiled, "I know."

The words "I am your husband" were simple, but it allowed Jane Ronan to understand the meaning behind Edwin Carter's words. Even without love, he would still accompany her through the storm.

In Edwin Carter's arms, Jane Ronan fell asleep not long after.

Jane Ronan slept soundly the latter half of the night. No more nightmares disturbed her, and she woke up early in the morning.

When he woke up, Edwin Carter was still sitting by the window reading the newspaper. When he heard her wake up, he looked up and said as usual, "I woke up."

For more than a month, it was like this every day. It was a very ordinary day, and this was the kind of life that Jane Ronan always wanted.

No matter what happened, there would always be a person accompanying her. She would live a bland life and slowly grow old together.

She quickly sat up and smiled brightly, "Good morning, Boss Carter."

None of them said a word about what had happened yesterday, as if it had never happened. Or was it just a nightmare?

At the breakfast table, Jane Ronan asked Edwin Carter, "Are you going on a business trip today?"

Edwin Carter didn't reply, but shook his head, his mouth full of food.

The amount of work that he piled up every day was not something that ordinary people could handle, but today, he had to prioritize innovative technology.

Furry called out a few times, wanting to attract the attention of his "mother". He was the one that had been ignored since last night until this morning, and he was very dissatisfied.

Jane Ronan hugged Furry up, and rubbed her face a few times. "Furry, mother forgot to buy yummy food for you last night, I will definitely buy it for you today."

Furry rubbed against Jane Ronan twice, and then moaned twice more, which probably meant that it had forgiven his mother.

Edwin Carter put down his chopsticks and looked over. He squinted his eyes and only had one thought in his mind. This little white dog is really annoying!

Jane Ronan still didn't want to work in Edwin Carter's car, so Edwin Carter didn't force her. The two of them arrived at the company one after another.

At work time in the morning, there were already many colleagues waiting at the elevator. When they saw Edwin Carter, they all looked over: "Boss Carter!"

"Yes." Every time, Edwin Carter would coldly snort and lead Sienna Henry and Luis George into the elevator, leaving the crowd to gaze at his back.

After Edwin Carter left, everyone started to discuss, "Wow, why do I feel like Boss Carter is getting more and more handsome?"

Another person continued, "Just now, I felt Boss Carter glance at me. He was so excited."

Someone said: "Who do you think Boss Carter's wife is? "What kind of charm can make Boss Carter like her and marry her?"

Another person answered, "I think she must be very beautiful and has a certain temperament. She is also a lady from a famous clan. In any case, she is not from our office."

Jane Ronan listened to their discussion. Everyone was gossiping about Edwin Carter, and no one mentioned that she beat up Greyson's yesterday and was arrested and locked up in the police station for half a day.

Jane Ronan was slightly taken aback, but after some careful thought, she understood what was going on.

Christopher Greyson wouldn't be so kind as to help her hide this kind of information, so the only one who would do so would be Edwin Carter.

Edwin Carter was the CEO of Innovation Technology, but Innovation Technology was not even worth mentioning compared to Greyson's. If Christopher Greyson attacked Edwin Carter, Edwin Carter would not even have the chance to retaliate.

It wasn't that she didn't believe in Edwin Carter's ability, but she was clear about the Gu family's power and Christopher Greyson's way of handling matters.

Thinking of this, Jane Ronan took a deep breath. No matter what, she had to think of a way not to involve Edwin Carter in this matter.

Jane Ronan was still worrying when she received a new message on her phone. She opened it and saw a few simple words: "Work hard, and leave everything to me."

After reading the text message, Jane Ronan subconsciously held her phone tightly, as if she could feel the power Edwin Carter gave her that way.

When she arrived at the office, Jane Ronan learned that Starlight had cancelled its collaboration with Innovation Technology for the reason that it had acquired Starlight's project through the use of innovative technologies.

As expected, she knew that Christopher Greyson wouldn't let it go easily. She just didn't expect him to move so quickly.

The office staff looked at Jane Ronan with a strange gaze. Others might not know that she had gone to Starlight yesterday, but the office staff did.

Perhaps there were already people who knew that she had injured the young master of Greyson's and looked at her as if she were a sinner.

Jane Ronan had already experienced such a terrifying and vicious gaze, so these gazes could not scare her away.

Briana Rodriguez kicked the desk, causing the chair to slide to Jane Ronan's side. "Jane Ronan, what happened yesterday?"

Jane Ronan pursed her lips and smiled, "Did something happen?"

"Jane Ronan, we are good colleagues and friends. If you don't want to tell others, you can tell me. I promise I won't tell anyone." Briana Rodriguez leaned close to Jane Ronan's ear and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you go to discuss the new project with Boss Liu yesterday? Why are they suddenly suspending their partnership with us?"
