I have Lucy with me, it’s fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In such a critical time, Peter Gingery is essentially here on a mission, and his task is to protect you before I finish mine,\" James Black said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also the intention of the guardian team’s leaders; the text message Jane received on her mobile phone had already indicated that, as James Black’s wife, she was currently in a state of hidden danger, as someone had shifted their target to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, those people were clueless about the identity of James Black’s wife but that did not mean they would never find out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, for the insiders of Capital Province, the fact that James Black’s wife was Jane Sampson wasn’t such a difficult secret to uncover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Jane Sampson’s identity was exposed, she would be in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, having Peter Gingery come over was mainly for him to protect Jane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jane was not foolish; connecting the dots from the text messages on her phone to James’s words, she understood everything all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hummed in agreement and smiled, \"That’s fine by me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>James felt there was always some hidden meaning in her response of \"That’s fine by me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pondering for a bit, James relaxed his expression, \"Even if Peter Gingery comes, don’t even think about indulging with him. I’ll have given him a full briefing before his arrival, and I won’t miss a single detail.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jane’s originally beaming expression suddenly changed; she tried to hold back but couldn’t restrain herself, and rolled her eyes before mumbling softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Annoying ghost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>James’s expression darkened, \"What did you say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said I understand, I’ll behave, I won’t eat anything I shouldn’t,\" Jane quickly clung to his arm, acting coquettishly, \"I’m very well-behaved, don’t forget the gift you promised me and a cup of milk tea; once I’m back in Capital Province, you have to make good on your promise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>James Black’s expression softened a bit, unable to resist her act of coquetry; he almost invisibly curved the corners of his mouth, and hummed in reply. He had already arranged for someone to prepare the gift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t chosen from what Alexander Forest had bought last time, but something James Black had thought of himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>James thought, Jane will probably like it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she likes him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the hotel, knowing that there was a video from the day of the incident regarding Jane, James Black opened her computer to watch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jane sat next to him, crunching on an apple and asked, \"I think the General Manager of Crystal Element Hotel, Rachel Miller, is quite nice. Should I ask her for the surveillance video?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, she rummaged through her purse and handed over the business card Rachel Miller had given her previously, then said, \"Should I give her a call to see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>James glanced at the business card, snatched it expressionlessly from the tip of Jane’s fingers and, with a flick of his hand, tossed the card into a trashcan brimming with apple peels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then coldly advised Jane, \"Try to have less contact with the people from Crystal Element in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\" Jane looked puzzled, why was he suddenly so irritable?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was the reason for such hostility? Was there a reason to throw away Rachel Miller’s business card into the trash can like it had personally offended him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because the people you think appear to be good are not necessarily good; bad people don’t have ’bad person’ written on their face for you to discern whether they are good or bad,\" James Black said.\u003C\u002Fp>",670,"2026-06-06T14:14:50.059Z",1,"novelbin.me","b1678105eb54cb2190a5b14daa8087fe748db07f48ef9a0728c262737d596d8c","ceo-s-reborn-wife-chapter-1217","ceo-s-reborn-wife-chapter-1215",2337,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fceo-s-reborn-wife-cover.jpg"]
