C7 I Would be Jealous

Jane looked around guiltily as she walked out of the Lily Hotel. She was relieved to see no one she knew.

She had dinner with her husband, and she had to worry about being seen by others. When she thought about it later, she felt that it was a little funny.

Jane sighed helplessly. If she had known that Edwin would become the new CEO of Innovative Technology, would she have married him so easily?

At this moment, Jane could not give herself an answer to this question, and she did not want to think too much about it.

When she returned to her office, Jane received a notice from the department manager, who told some of her colleagues in charge of Starlight's tender project to get ready to discuss the project with the president in the afternoon.

Starlight was a game development company, and it was also a subsidiary of the famous domestic company, Greyson's Group.

Greyson's Group was one of the largest companies in the country, and there were many companies who wanted to cooperate with it. It was not easy to win from dozens of bidding companies.

Starlight Company's bidding project was the most important part of this year's plan. Edwin had just become the CEO, so it was understandable that he valued the progress of the project preparation. However, Jane felt a little uncomfortable.

She had been disturbed by Edwin at noon, and she still had to work with him in the afternoon. She was worried that her work would be affected by him.

Jane and her colleagues arrived at the conference room ahead of time. They had also prepared all the necessary information, but her heart was still in her throat.

"Jane..." Briana Rodriguez whispered in Jane's ear, "Everyone knows how good you are at your job. Don't worry too much."

Jane pursed her lips and smiled but did not say anything.

Briana Rodriguez was also a member of the project team, but she was a sweet-talked, careless girl, so Jane was in charge of a lot of things, and Briana Rodriguez could only do small things.

Another male colleague, Wade Wong, also leaned closer to Jane. "Jane, with you leading us to prepare for this project, there will be no problem."

Jane said, "No matter what, it's always good to be careful."

Jane was the person in charge of this project. She had the greatest responsibility, and she always had more worries than others.

In addition, this project was the first project that Jane had handled since Edwin took over. In addition to making achievements at work, she also wanted to leave a good impression on her husband. In the future, when she lived with Edwin, she could not let him look down on her.

"Boss Carter..."

Someone called out to the boss, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to the door of the meeting room. Jane was no exception.

She looked up and saw Edwin leading two assistants in with elegant steps.

At lunch time, Edwin was wearing casual clothes. At this time, he had changed into a hand-tailored silver-gray suit with a white shirt and a blue and white striped tie. His entire temperament looked colder.

"Hello, Boss Carter!"

Everyone stood up and greeted Edwin.

"Everyone, please take a seat," Edwin said lightly and sat down on the main seat. Then, he signaled Luis to start the meeting.

Edwin did not even look at her. Jane heaved a sigh of relief and felt much more at ease.

In fact, from Edwin's performance yesterday and this morning, his attitude towards public and private matters was much more rigorous than hers.

Jane was the person in charge of the project, so she started to introduce the details of the preparation of the project.

Because of her usual diligence, she did a lot of the details herself, and when she analyzed the situation with a group of executives, including the CEO, Jane was not nervous at all.

Not only was she not nervous, but she even performed very well.

When it was over, Jane received a round of applause.

As she bowed to thank him, she felt a probing gaze on her, and when she looked up, she met Edwin's deep, unreadable gaze.

Edwin smiled at Jane when she looked over. It was the kind of polite smile that was impeccable.

Jane immediately returned Edwin's polite smile. She was no worse than him when it came to work and personal matters.

Because of the new president, Edwin had a cold expression on his face. He looked like an otherworldly god.

Fortunately, they were fully prepared. Edwin had personally confirmed the work of their group. This meeting could be considered a success.

When the meeting ended, the members of the project team were very excited and forgot about the executives for a moment. They talked as they walked.

Wade Wong put a hand on Jane's shoulder. "Jane, if we can take down Starlight this time, it will be a great honor."

Jane was so happy that she didn't notice how intimate Wade Wong's posture was with hers. She smiled and nodded. "As long as everyone works hard together, there is nothing that can't be done."

"Jane!"

Suddenly, Edwin's cold voice came from behind her, causing Jane's body to stiffen slightly. She turned around and said politely, "Boss Carter, you were looking for me?"

"Jane, you are the head of the Starlight project team. Boss Carter has some details he would like to clarify with you." The one who spoke was not Edwin, but Sienna Henry, who was beside him.

Sienna Henry had worked under Edwin for many years, so of course she knew very well what Edwin was thinking at this moment.

The CEO asked Jane about the work situation, and the other members of the team were smart enough to find an excuse to leave Jane alone with Edwin.

Edwin walked closer to Jane. "Jane..."

Jane subconsciously took two steps back and distanced herself from Edwin. "Boss Carter, what is it?"

Edwin approached her again. "At this time, I am only Edwin, your husband."

Jane took another step back and looked around. "Boss Carter, it's work hours."

Edwin frowned slightly when he heard Jane's words. His eyes narrowed under the golden frame. It was obvious that he was a little angry.

However, due to his good cultivation, he did not easily show his anger.

After a moment, he said seriously, "Jane, although I know very well that you have nothing to do with that man, it makes me jealous to see him hold you so intimately."

Jane obviously did not expect Edwin to say such a thing to her. For a moment, her face was hot and red. Finally, she pursed her lips and smiled. "Don't worry, Boss Carter. This won't happen again."

"Boss Carter?" Edwin's eyes narrowed under the golden frame. He was really angry.

"Boss Carter, you go ahead. I'll go down first." Jane did not know that Edwin was angry. She turned around and left.

Edwin watched as Jane entered the elevator. His originally cold gaze became even colder.

"Boss Carter, there are still a few documents that I need you to look at," Sienna Henry reminded him at the right time.

Edwin walked towards the office and said coldly, "Are all women so stubborn?"
