Mr. Fairchild's Rose: She is Wild and Proud-Chapter 359 - 229: Transoceanic Call (2)

With this in mind, Anson Lane’s attitude today makes sense.

Cutting off someone’s financial resources is like killing their parents.

He’s probably afraid of bringing some bad influence to his company. The new Lane Family has been preparing for a long time to go public. If he doesn’t help Sylvia Lane, then Sylvia Lane’s identity is like a time bomb, ready to explode and possibly cause the market value to evaporate!

Just like many celebrity couples in the entertainment industry who run companies together, the fluctuations in their stock prices are often closely tied to their personal conduct. Divorce, infidelity, etc., are all major influencing factors.

The Lane Family’s young lady working as a servant at someone else’s house would only make people say that Anson Lane is selling his daughter to gain glory! This is very bad for the company’s public opinion!

So, Maeve Lane wasn’t intimidated by Anson Lane at all.

"Then go ahead... expose it," Maeve Lane said casually.

Anson Lane’s words are nothing but a paper tiger.

Before Anson Lane’s angry response could be heard, Maeve Lane hung up the phone.

Then she clicked on Keane’s video chat window.

Seeing the cool little face appear on the screen, Maeve Lane’s mood instantly brightened.

...

Sylvia Lane anxiously waited for a call from Anson Lane, but instead, she got a severe scolding from him.

"Knowing Maeve is not someone to mess with, why insist on provoking her?! You’re as stupid as your mother!" Anson Lane, venting the anger he felt from Maeve Lane onto Sylvia Lane, said, "You must apologize to her immediately and keep apologizing until she forgives you, or else I’ll sever our father-daughter relationship!"

Sylvia Lane’s face turned as pale as a sheet of paper, and she shakily hung up the phone.

Mrs. Fairchild also heard the conversation, and her impression of the Lane Family became even worse.

Who knows what the old man was thinking back then, insisting that Julian marry a daughter from the Lane Family.

Among all the distinguished ladies, which one isn’t elegant and proper?

Like Mila Miller, graceful and well-mannered, unlike Maeve Lane, who was arrogant the first time they met!

Sylvia Lane felt a chill all over her body, wondering if she’d never get out of this her entire life!

A hand gently patted her shoulder, "Actually, I have another idea, but it might cause you some grievance."

Mrs. Fairchild looked somewhat reluctant to speak.

"What! As long as there’s a chance, I’m willing to try it!" Sylvia Lane grabbed her hand!

She didn’t want to stay in the Fairchild Family anymore; she wanted to leave!

"Although I can’t take you out openly, there’s a quieter place where you might give it a try."

"Where!"

"Over the back hill, at the end, there’s a dog hole. It’s small, but maybe you could squeeze through..."

Sylvia Lane immediately felt as if she’d been struck by lightning.

A dog hole!

Would she really have to crawl through a dog hole?

"It’s just a suggestion, if you don’t want to then..." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"I’ll crawl, I’ll crawl..." Sylvia Lane, sobbing and tearful, said with humiliation, "I’ll crawl, isn’t that enough!"

She didn’t want to live like this anymore, even if it meant crawling through a dog hole she would accept it!

The moon was dark and the wind was high.

Mrs. Fairchild took her people to the back hill.

Without Julian Fairchild’s bodyguards following her every move, her authority was still significant.

As long as Julian Fairchild’s people didn’t discover her, she could sneak Sylvia Lane out mixed with her group of maids!

It was also a way to repay a favor.

"This is the entrance. I rarely go up there myself, so there shouldn’t be any large wild animals. You just crawl across, and once you’re at the foot of the hill, next to the right-side iron mesh is a dog hole. It used to be where the servants fed the stray dogs, but it’s now abandoned."

Sylvia Lane cried as she memorized it.

Mrs. Fairchild then said, "Go on."

Even when the light of Mrs. Fairchild’s flashlight and that of her butler faded into the distance, Sylvia Lane still hadn’t gathered the courage to climb up.

The back hill is said to connect with Mount Theron, and who knows what’s inside.

Sylvia Lane hesitated for a long time before taking the first step, then she took her small flashlight and began to walk up the mountain path.

The road was pitch black, as though something could leap out at any moment.

Suddenly, a rustling noise reached her ears.

Sylvia Lane’s body went rigid when she saw a snake coiled on the roadside ahead!

Her limbs were trembling; she tried to walk past it, staying on the edge of the grass, but when she set her foot down, she stepped on something soft!

She was so terrified she felt her soul leave her body. Letting out a sob, she couldn’t bear to look again, dropping her flashlight, and ran downhill by moonlight!

Her father was right, she shouldn’t have provoked Maeve Lane!

It was her mistake, it was her mistake!

She kept running wildly until she reached the foot of the hill, tripping many times, stepping into voids frequently, but eventually she made it to the place Mrs. Fairchild had told her about.
