Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Patrick’s furrowed brow betrayed his concern. He had deliberately allowed the media to report the news, and he hadn’t authorized its removal. The post had become the most viewed in history, and it made no sense for someone to remove it.

Intrigued, he dialed Morton’s number, instructing him, “Find out who removed the most viral post about what I said and why.”

Morton replied, “Yes, sir,” perplexed about who might have the authority to remove such a post, aside from Patrick himself.

Meanwhile, Jane received a message from Anthony confirming that the task was complete. With a sense of satisfaction, she responded, “Good! I knew you wouldn’t fail.”

Curious about Anthony’s remark, Jane felt puzzled by his insinuation that only someone like Patrick could control her. Annoyed, she texted back, “Mind your own business, Anthony.”

Turning her attention back to her laptop, she discovered that there were no more news articles about her, and she continued her work.

The progress of the Ice and Fire advertisement had been hampered by Monica’s stunt, and Jane needed to expedite the process. After arranging with Osborn and Maria for another shoot, she contacted Bruce to schedule the press conference. With everything in place, the product launch was imminent.

Time passed swiftly, and it was only when Patrick called her that Jane realized how late it had become.

“Can we leave now?” Patrick’s voice sounded through the phone.

Checking the time, Jane saw that they had exceeded working hours. She agreed, saying, “Okay.”

Patrick, now behind the wheel, focused on the road. Jane settled into the passenger seat and gazed out the window.

However, Patrick’s phone rang suddenly. It was Morton calling. Patrick put on his wireless earphone to answer the call, asking, “What’s up?”

Morton informed him, “Sir, I’ve just discovered who removed the post.”

“It was taken down by a well-known hacker known as Anthony.”

“Anthony?” Patrick’s brow furrowed. He had heard of this mysterious individual before. “Do you know why he did it?”

Morton replied, “No, sir, I’m still investigating.”

“I think he was merely showing off.”

Patrick instructed him, “Continue the investigation.”

Jane’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing Anthony’s name. She worried that Patrick had discovered her connection to Anthony. She held her breath, anticipating Patrick’s inquiry.

But instead, Patrick drove to his grandfather’s house without further questions.

When Jane heard Anthony’s name during the call, she frowned, feeling uneasy. She wondered whether Patrick was about to reveal her other identity.

Mike, Patrick’s grandfather, welcomed them as they arrived. Dolly, the family dog, enthusiastically greeted Jane, which brought a smile to her face. Jane was struck by Mike’s comment, “Even Dolly misses you.”

To her surprise, Patrick immediately accepted Mike’s invitation to stay the night. Jane wondered why Patrick made this decision without consulting her.

Mike informed them that they would stay the night, leaving no room for objections. Both grandfathers had agreed that they needed to bring Patrick and Jane closer, and Mike had made it his mission.

Patrick agreed without hesitation, surprising Jane, who was taken aback by his willingness to accept without consulting her.

In the dining room, they enjoyed a table filled with various dishes. Jane noticed the unique dishes in front of Patrick, which seemed like aphrodisiacs. She was puzzled by Mike’s intentions. Before she could ponder further, Mike placed a piece of meat on Patrick’s plate, urging him to eat more.

Patrick seemed to notice the implication, and the corner of his mouth twitched. Jane, amused, teasingly asked him, “Are you impotent or something?”

Patrick’s face darkened, offended by her questioning his sexual prowess. “You’ll find out soon,” he muttered, determined to prove her wrong.

After dinner, Mike led them to Patrick’s room, indicating that Jane should stay there for the night. Jane, feeling uneasy, asked to stay in the guest room, but Mike disagreed, stating it was the only available room due to ongoing renovations. Frustrated, Jane reluctantly agreed.

Before she knew it, Patrick took charge of the situation, agreeing on her behalf. Mike ordered them to stay the night, making it clear that there were no objections.

As they prepared to leave the dining room, Mike advised, “You two will stay the night. No objections.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Again, Patrick agreed without consulting Jane. She felt frustrated that he was making decisions on her behalf without her input.

They proceeded to Patrick’s room, but Jane hesitated, pointing out that she had wished to stay in the guest room. Mike, however, was insistent. Jane found herself locked in the room, bewildered by Mike’s actions.

Feeling like a prisoner, she was left wondering about Mike’s intentions. Suddenly, Patrick seized her and pressed her against the door. His fingers caressed her hair, and he whispered seductively in her ear, “Who questioned my sexual prowess earlier?”
