Chapter 84 Dan smiled gently. “The Crowne Hotel.” Jane swallowed hard and forced a smile. He was really bold. Every time he went out for dinner, he didn’t go anywhere except for the Crowne Hotel… But since he had just recovered from his serious injury, she could take it as a supplement to his body! Jane changed her clothes and went to the hotel with Dan. There was an endless stream of guests coming in and out of the Crowne Hotel, but the strange thing was that no one had been sitting at the table by the window. As soon as they entered, the waiter attentively led them to a table by the window. “Honey, isn’t that where we sat the last two times? Jane was a little surprised, “Is the service here so thoughtful? We’ve only been here twice, and they already know where we sat both times?” Dan smiled without saying anything. He glanced at the menu, handed it to the waiter, and then exchanged a look… The waiter recognized him and knew he had a close relationship with Hector, so he quickly informed the chef. After a while, all the dishes were served. Jane was even more surprised when she tasted the dishes. She had a sweet taste, and every dish was sweet but not greasy, which made her like them from the bottom of her heart. “Wow,” Jane sighed again, “The service is amazing! Does the chef remember every guest’s preferences so clearly?” Dan looked at her quietly, his smiling eyes full of affection. “Are you feeling better now?” “Hmm?” Jane was stunned. How did he know? Dan put the peeled crayfish meat on her plate. “I’m feeling… much better,” Jane smiled awkwardly. “Anyway, as long as I eat happily, I will be happy!”
Dan narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, “Then you’re really easy to be eased!” “What else can I do?” She pursed her lips, “If I can’t get around any troubles and overthink everything, how can I live? I’d rather be happy every day!” This ment ality was worthy of praise. Dan looked at her with a smile and carefully picked out the bones of the grilled perch. Jane told Dan everything that had happened today while eating. “I’m afraid there will be many things like this in the future. I know Flona too well. She couldn’t bear to see me being better than her since she was a child, and I’ve given in to her for so many years, so she thought I was easy to be bullied….” “But from today on, I can’t tolerate her anymore.” Jane put down her chopsticks with a firm look. “Don’t think she can insult an illegitimate daughter, and the whole world is around her! My family background is not something I can choose, and this is not an excuse for her to insult me! “That’s right,” Dan gently held her little hand, “No matter what you do, I will always support you” Jane grinned and lowered her head to eat. “It’ll be very annoying if you work with Flona in the future,” Dan said in a low voice, “Jane, if you can’t take it anymore, don’t force yourself. At worst, you can resign. I have a lot of income now…” “There’s no need!” Jane smiled innocently. “Keep the money you earn for yourself. You’re a man. If you go out to socialize with your friends, you’ll lose face if you have no money!” Dan smiled bitterly. “Honey, I…’ He didn’t need to pay when socializing with his friends! “I won’t resign,” Jane said clearly, “It wasn’t easy for me to get this position. How can I leave so easily? Don’t worry. I will control my emotions and deal with things well. I’m an adult. I’m not so delicate!” Dan was unhappy to hear that, so he held her little hand more tightly. After a long time, Dan slowly spat out a few words in a low voice. “It’s my fault for making you suffer. “What nonsense are you talking about? I can handle such a small matter,” Jane laughed. “But then again, we can’t work for others all our lives. We have to have our own industry!”
Dan looked at her with interest, his eyes lighting up. “Our own industry?” “That’s right! If I can invest or do part-time jobs while I’m at work, it’ll also be a source of income!” Jane began to plan seriously. “Even if we open a small shop and set up a stall, it’s our own business. It’s up to us to decide!” “If you have money to invest, what kind of business do you want to do the most?” Jane pondered for a moment, and a dreamy expression appeared on her face. “Well.. If I could, I would buy an entire shopping mall with a stream of customers every day! But that’s impossible. Let’s talk about a practical goal. I’d like to save money to open a small cafe with a large French window and a small yard full of iris flowers. Then I would sit behind the counter to grind coffee and bake. The whole room will be full of the fragrance of coffee and desserts!” “That’s it?” Yep.” “Okay,” Dan smiled slightly, “I see.” Jane was stunned and suddenly came to her senses from the daydream. Dan spoke in a very light and casual tone, but there was no trace of joking on his indifferent face. Jane suddenly remembered when Ben Colt and Adam Frank plotted against her. After waking up from the hospital, Dan had also asked her the same question lightly. If she had superpowers, how would she want to punish these villains the most? Jane casually replied, “Let them disappear from my sight forever.” Sure enough, when Jane returned to the company, she never saw them again… Jane felt her heart beat faster, and a strange feeling spread inside her like a vine. “What’s wrong?” Dan ladled the soup and put it in front of her. Jane was stunned. She raised her hand and almost knocked over the soup bowl. “Let’s eat first,” Dan said gently, “It won’t be good if it gets cold.” His eyes were as deep as an unfathomable pool. Jane was a little absent-minded and hurriedly. picked up the soup bowl to drink.
After dinner, they took a walk along the beach. Jane leaned against him like a sweet and helpless bird. After a long silence, she looked up at him quietly. The tall and handsome man under the street lamp had a clear outline, but he looked more mysterious. Sensing her gaze, Dan lowered his head slightly and smiled. “Why are you looking at me like that?” “Hubby…” Jane hesitated for a moment before asking. “You… you’re just an ordinary person, aren’t you?” “Why do you ask?” “Answer me first!” Dan rubbed her hair and held her in his arms. There were some words stuck in his throat. After lingering for a long time, he swallowed them and finally responded, “Yes.” “But I was a gangster, and I’ve been to jail. I’m far worse than ordinary people. “Phew! I knew it. My husband must be an ordinary person!” Jane panted with relief and hugged him excitedly. “That’s great, honey!” Dan frowned and did not know whether to laugh or cry. Why? “Don’t you want your husband… to be extraordinary?” (13)Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
