Sure enough, when she walked in, she saw a bustling scene. The spacious hall was filled with guests. Next to them, a band was playing live music, which was extremely exuberant. The faces of the guests were all brimming with smiles.

As the host, Malcolm Gladwell was entertaining the guests. Gladys Roger and Vanessa Gladwell, who were accompanying him, were wearing the latest Dior fashions of the season. They were ornamented with lots of precious jewelry, making them very eye-catching in the crowd. What was even more eye-catching than their outfits were the smiles on their faces.

It pierced into Janice Gladwell’s heart like needles.

What right did they have to take something that did not belong to them?

What rights do they have to make any decision for her?

This was the money they had gained from ’selling’ her out!

How could they be so extravagant!

Do they still have any conscience?

She stared at everything around her and could no longer take it anymore. She raised her hand, picked up a chair nearby, then waved it around recklessly.

She smashed whatever came into her view.

The balloons on the wall, the ribbons, the flower arrangements at the entrance, the

bowls and plates on the food table, the wine glasses on the wine table...

Everything was shattered and scattered on the floor.

Everyone had their jaws wide open and eyes popping out of their sockets. The music stopped abruptly. In an instant, the entire hall was filled only with the crackling sound of glass, cutleries, and other items being shattered.

Everyone on the scene was stunned.

When Malcolm and Gladys saw Janice smashing things like a lunatic, they were shocked. For quite a while, they were so dumbfounded, they froze. Finally, they got back their senses and immediately summoned the security guards.

However, Janice was completely out of control. The security guards could not approach her, and they could only watch from the side.

"A bunch of good-for-nothings."

Malcolm cursed as he walked over. He wanted to snatch away the chair in Janice’s hands, but he could not get close to her. He was so annoyed that he stomped his foot.

Gladys and Vanessa looked on helplessly.

"Crazy, crazy, she’s crazy."

Gladys cried out in horror.

This voice woke Janice. Her gaze fell onto the two of them as she walked towards them with a scarlet face filled with aggression to kill.

Gladys and Vanessa looked at her menacing manner and took a few steps back, frightened, but behind them was a wall.

"What are you going to do?"

"What am I going to do? Help you to celebrate. Have a great time with the money you had taken for selling me out."

As she screamed as continued flinging the chair around.

Screams, pleas for mercy, and sobs filled the entire hall.

When Yvonne White and Benjamin Taylor arrived, the scene was in chaos, and the guests were fleeing in all directions. The two pushed through the crowd and rushed in, only to see Janice fighting with Gladys and Vanessa.

Gladys had bruises all over her and she was shrieking in horror, "Crazy, crazy, she’s crazy."

Vanessa was curled up in a corner crying, her whole body and all her clothes in a mess.

Benjamin and Yvonne were extremely shocked when they saw this. They had never seen Janice ever behaving like this before.

The women were pulling each other’s hair and so Janie’s hair was a mess, her clothes were torn into shreds. However, her eyes were focused and vicious.

She looked ferocious but yet was a pitiful and heart-wrenching sight.

Yvonne could not bear to watch her act like this any longer. She stepped forward and hugged Janice from behind.

"Janice, stop. Stop. Please stop."

Yvonne almost never cried, but when she saw Janice at that moment, she could no longer hold back and hugged her tightly.

"Janice, you still have me. I am here."

Janice did not utter a word. She stood there, allowing Yvonne to hold her.

All the guests had rushed out, even Malcolm, Gladys and Vanessa. Finally, there were only the three of them left in the hall.

She cracked into a miserable dark smile.

"I thought about it. In any case, all I have now is my own life. There is nothing they can use to threaten me."

As she spoke, she laughed hideously, pushed Yvonne away, and walked towards the door.

Yvonne and Benjamin stood there and stared at her back as she walked away. Then they went after her.

"Janice, where are you going?"

...

Janice didn’t reply. Instead, she walked on.

Now she had thought clearly and figured out that only her life could be exchanged for the chance to see Christopher.

There was no other way.

Therefore, she was going to do something big now.

As she walked out, she called Lucy, completely ignoring the strange look in the eyes of passers-by.

"Lucy, can you do me a favor?"

It was not until she got an accurate answer from the other side of the phone that she hung up the phone with a smile. And then she stopped a taxi on the side of the road and got in.

As soon as the car left, Benjamin and Yvonne came racing out of the hall.

Seeing this, the two of them hurriedly got into the car and went after her as well.

Not long after, the car stopped in front of the Bateman Group’s building.

Janice paid the fare and got out of the car.

She stood before the building and raised her head to take a glance at it. And then she walked in.

This time, she was going to do something drastic.

As soon as Janice went in, Benjamin and Yvonne arrived.

Seeing that it was the Bateman Group, the two of them couldn’t help but be stunned.

They knew that Janice did not get along with Nathan.

It could even be described that their relationship went sour.

The two of them looked at each other and felt that something was wrong. They quickly followed Janice but were stopped by the security guards as soon as they stepped into the building.

After seeing it, Yvonne asked in confusion, "Why was she allowed to go in?" She pointed at Janice’s retreating figure.

The security guard answered, "She made an appointment with the CEO. How about you?"

His question stumped Yvonne.

In the end, Benjamin revealed his identity. Then, he and Yvonne were allowed into

the building.

The two went in and made their way up to the floor where Nathan’s office was.

However, just as they stepped out of the elevator, they ran into Denise.

"Miss Kelshore, may I ask where Mr. Bateman is?"

Benjamin asked anxiously.

Denise saw the two of them and was puzzled. "I don’t remember you making an appointment with the CEO. "

Benjamin said, "Yes, we don’t have an appointment, but we have something urgent to discuss with him."

Denise glanced at her watch and said, "The CEO is in a meeting. If you want to meet him, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait till the meeting ends."

The two of them exchanged looks when they heard this.

"What about Janice? Where is she now?"

Benjamin asked.

"Janice?"

Denise was puzzled. "Is she here?"

Benjamin was stunned. "You didn’t see her?"

Denise shook her head.

At that moment, both Benjamin and Yvonne were stunned, for they had clearly seen Janice enter the elevator with their own eyes.

"Why did she come here?"

At that moment, an employee hurried out of the elevator.

"Miss Kelshore, something horrible happened. Someone is on the rooftop and wants to... wants to jump off the building."

"Jump off the building?"

The three of them were stunned.

In particular, Yvonne suddenly thought of something.

"Oh no, Janice!"

Then she immediately ran to the elevator with a pale face.

Hearing this, Benjamin and Denise quickly followed.

At this time, outside the railing on the top floor.

Janice was standing there and half hanging in the air. As the wind blew her long

black hair, her hair fluttered in the air. She seemed to be about to be blown off.

At her feet was the most prosperous commercial center in Tomaville.

The Bateman Group Building had a total of 52 floors. She stood at the top of the building and looked down at the crowd of people below her feet. At this point, the crowd was gradually gathering together.

She knew that those people were here to entertain themselves by watching her.

But she didn’t care.

She wanted to see Christopher.

If Nathan said that she had no value at all, then she only had one life left.

She was gambling with her very life.

...

When Yvonne and Benjamin arrived at the rooftop out of breath, they were shocked to see just such a scene.

Especially for Yvonne, her legs suddenly went limp, and tears flowed out of her eyes instantly.

"Janice, come down. Don’t do anything stupid."

She choked with sobs and tried to persuade Janice.

Janice slowly turned around to look over when she heard this.

As Janice stared at the flustered and overwhelmed look on Yvonne’s face, an apologetic look showed on her face. "Thank you, Yvonne. Thank you for your friendship all this time."

Yvonne shook her head, and her face was already covered with tears. "Janice, could you please come down? Don’t be so silly. We... will find a solution sooner or later."

"Yeah. Janice, don’t be silly. Come down quickly."

Benjamin also tried to persuade her.

Janice shook her head. "No, I won’t come down until I see my husband."

As Janice spoke, her gaze fell on Denise, who was standing beside Yvonne and Benjamin. At that moment, Denise was also frightened out of her wits. After all, this was the fiftieth floor.

"Miss Kelshore, please tell Mr. Bateman that I am standing here, not to intimidate him but to tell him that whether he agrees or not, I am his son’s legal wife. I have the right to visit my husband. Although my husband doesn’t remember me now, Mr. Bateman can’t take away my right to visit him."

She spoke each and every word with force.

However, Denise was too petrified to listen to her words right now. And then she directly called Nathan.

At this time, the annual shareholders’ meeting was being held in Bateman Group’s office.

Suddenly, the phone’s ringtone broke the silence of the office.

Nathan glanced at his phone and noticed that it was a call from Denise. As his most experienced secretary, there was no way she would call him at such a time unless something significant had occurred.

Nathan picked it up.

He was stunned when he heard that Janice was about to jump off the building.

"You have to stop her. Even if she’s going to die, she can’t do it by jumping off the top of our building! Understood?"

Nathan hung up the phone in a hurry, and then he noticed that the shareholders were talking to each other.

His expression changed drastically. No matter what, he would never allow that woman to plummet to her death right outside the Bateman Group building.

He stood up and walked out. As soon as he opened the door, the flashlights continued to shine on him.

The reporters, led by Lucy, instantly surrounded him.

"Mr. Bateman, I heard that your daughter-in-law is currently standing on the rooftop..."

"Mr. Bateman, it is said that it was you who separated her from your son that caused her to..."

"Mr. Bateman..."

One microphone after another was handed over to Nathan, who was surrounded by the reporters.

He roared with a darkened face. "Where are the security guards?"

"Mr. Bateman, may I ask you if a woman’s life is worth nothing in your eyes?"

Lucy took the opportunity to hand over the microphone to Nathan. Even if she was at the risk of being fired, she had to ask this question.

As expected, her words thoroughly angered Nathan. "Which media company are you from? How dare you ask such a question?"

"Mr. Bateman, this is an online live webcast. Please answer my question."

Nathan glared angrily. And the bodyguards immediately rushed forward.

The situation was out of control.

Meanwhile, in the sanatorium located in the suburbs.

Christopher lay in bed and kept thinking about the scenes in the pictures.

His father’s words echoed in his ears.

"She’s a flirtatious woman."

Therefore, was the woman he desperately tried to save such a person?

At that moment, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."
