C8 No Emotional Basis

Sienna Henry was stunned for a moment, but then she reacted: "Jane has experienced that kind of hurt and betrayal. In these three years, she has no one to rely on. If she doesn't be strong, who can she show her weakness to?"

As he was speaking, Edwin stopped and turned around to look at her gloomily.

Sienna Henry immediately added, "But you will treat her well in the future."

...

The conference room was on the 23rd floor, and the business department was on the 19th floor. When the elevator reached the 22nd floor, the door opened and Madonna from the public relations department walked in.

Jane did not like people like Madonna, so she stood to the side and did not want to greet her.

Madonna glanced at Jane, then faced the elevator door, her head held high. "Some people, don't think no one knows what they did in another city."

Jane listened and did not want to waste her energy on a woman like Madonna who caused trouble for no reason.

Jane's nonchalant attitude annoyed Madonna. She turned around and glared at Jane. "Jane, don't tell me you don't know that our CEO is married?"

Jane pursed her lips and smiled. If she didn't know Edwin was married, then who would?

Madonna wanted to seduce Edwin, so she decided that Jane was the same. She added, "The CEO had Sienna Henry send an internal email early this morning, announcing to the entire company that he was married."

Jane had been so busy with the Starlight bidding today that she hadn't looked at the company's internal email. She really didn't know about this.

Now that she knew, she could not help but feel a tinge of sweetness in her heart.

Edwin said that he would be jealous when he saw other men getting close to her, provided that he had already declared to everyone that he was married.

Thinking of this, Jane was amused and could not help but laugh.

Madonna had unrealistic fantasies about Edwin. When she saw Edwin's married email this morning, her heart turned cold.

After being depressed for half a day, she wanted to drag someone along with her. As soon as she thought of this, she thought of Jane.

She wanted Jane to have a taste of what she had experienced before. She did not expect Jane to have such a calm expression. It really made her angry.

Madonna was so angry that she stomped her foot. She gritted her teeth and thought that she couldn't do anything to Jane now, but one day she would catch hold of Jane and make her stop being so arrogant.

...

Because of yesterday's lesson, Jane did not waste a moment after work today. She rushed home as fast as she could, hoping to cook before Edwin got off work so that she would not starve him again.

When she went to the supermarket to buy ingredients, Jane dialed Edwin's number.

When Jane called, Edwin was holding a temporary meeting with a few higher-ups.

He raised his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet before answering the phone. "What's the matter?"

Jane said, "I'm at the supermarket. Do you have anything you like to eat?"

Edwin said calmly, "I'm not picky. Do as you see fit."

When Edwin said this, Sienna Henry and Luis were beside him. When they heard him say this, the two of them exchanged glances.

If their CEO was not picky with his food, then there would not be another person in this world who would be picky with his food.

When Edwin returned home, Jane was busy in the kitchen.

She was wearing an apron, and her long black hair was casually tied into a bun, revealing her fair neck. She was cooking with a spatula.

Looking at her appearance, it was not hard to imagine that she was also outstanding in her work.

Edwin stared blankly for a long time before walking to the kitchen. "Jane, I'm back."

Jane turned around and smiled faintly. "Go and change your clothes first. Dinner will be ready soon."

Edwin stood still. "Jane..."

Jane's hands did not stop moving. She turned around and looked at him. "What's wrong?"

"I'll go and change my clothes." Edwin had said that she didn't have to be busy cooking after work, and he would let the cook prepare it, but in his heart, he felt that eating the food made by his wife was not bad.

In his heart, he felt that he could eat the hot food made by his wife when he got home from work, and not everything was prepared by the cook.

Jane prepared three dishes and a soup. There was a white-cooked chicken, fried meat with onions, stir-fried lotus root slices, and a soup with golden mushrooms.

At noon, she saw that Edwin was eating some light dishes. Jane guessed that he liked light food, so she made a few home-cooked dishes.

When Edwin came out after changing his clothes, the dishes were already on the table. When he saw the onions on the table, he frowned slightly, but he quickly acted as if nothing had happened, and Jane naturally did not notice.

Jane served the soup and served Edwin a bowl first. "You've been busy all day. Drink a bowl of soup first."

"Okay." Edwin took the bowl and took a sip.

Jane picked up the onion and put it into Edwin's bowl. "The onion is very healthy. Eat more."

"Okay." Edwin nodded.

However, he did not eat immediately. Instead, he slowly drank the soup.

After he finished one bowl, he added another bowl. He also ate a few pieces of white cut chicken and some lotus root slices, but he did not touch the bowl of rice and onions that Jane picked up.

Jane noticed it. She lowered her head and ate the rice in big mouthfuls. Her heart felt a little sour.

Jane did not say anything else. Edwin did not like to talk at the dining table either. The atmosphere was very quiet for a moment.

After dinner, Edwin was responsible for washing the dishes. Jane did not say anything and turned around to return to her room.

She knew that her relationship with Edwin was not that close, but she could not help but feel sad when she saw him dislike the food she picked up.

However, when she thought about it carefully, their marriage was without any emotional basis, just for the sake of marriage.

Although they were already husband and wife, they didn't know each other well. They weren't so intimate that they would put food for each other. She was careless.

In the future, she would try her best to be respectful to him. She would never do anything improper again.

After thinking it through, Jane did not dwell on the matter of picking up food.

She turned on her computer and prepared to take a closer look at the plan for the Starlight Project. Friday was the opening day. So many people had been busy for so long, so there could not be any mistakes.

Jane opened the folder and the phone beside her rang.

Jane looked and saw that it was her best friend, Laura. When she picked up, she heard Laura roar angrily, "Stupid girl, where the hell did you go? Why didn't you tell me you were moving? Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Laura was Jane's high school and university classmate. When Jane was abandoned, she was the only one who stood by her side.

Jane decided to come to Longahe to develop. Laura dragged a simple suitcase and accompanied Jane from the bustling capital to Longahe City without thinking.

She was worried that Jane would do something stupid by herself. She had wanted to stay with Jane for two months and wait for her to stabilize before returning to the capital.
