Someone With Your Name

Only then did he come to his senses. Janice was afraid that he would not be able to find a job, so she was encouraging him to play to his strengths.

Christopher couldn't help teasing her. "Didn't you say you wanted to support me for the rest of my life?"

"Of course."

Janice nodded repeatedly.

Christopher couldn't help but pinch Janice's face. She was really cute.

The next day, Janice was once again treated to a breakfast cooked by Christopher.

She sat at the dining table and looked at Christopher opposite her. The longer she looked at him, the more she felt that she had found a treasure.

After breakfast, Janice went to work at the TV station. On the way, she received a call from Malcolm.

"Janice, don't take what happened last night to heart. If you don't want to go back for dinner, I'll invite you to a restaurant instead. Your aunt's temper can't be changed. Don't mind her."

After listening to her father's words, Janice felt a little better.

She blamed her father for what happened last night. After all, that mother and daughter pair obviously accused her, yet he was indifferent and did nothing.

But thinking that he was her father after all, she got over it.

She only said that she would talk with him after she finished her work and ended the call.

By the time she entered the TV station, Janice was in a much better mood. Along the way, she met many colleagues, and she smiled and greeted them each.

"Janice, you're in such a good mood today."

Janice had just walked through the main door when she heard Lucy White's voice. She turned around and said with a smile, "Yes, I'm in a good mood today."

Lucy stepped forward with a smile. "Something good happened? Share it with me."

Janice smiled mysteriously. "I won't tell you."

The two of them walked in laughing. As soon as they arrived at the door of their office, they bumped into Linda Zimmers', who was walking toward them.

Janice lost her balance, and she hit the glass door. She was in pain, covering her head with her hands. A sharp reprimand came from above her.

"Watch where you're going! What were you thinking?"

Linda rolled her eyes and said rudely.

"Damn, wasn't it you who ran into us?"

Before Janice could speak, Lucy said indignantly.

Linda snorted and said, "No. It was clearly you not paying attention to where you were going."

After saying that, Linda haughtily pushed them away and walked out.

Janice and Lucy looked aggrieved.

"Ugh, how could such an unreasonable person be a reporter? Unbelievable."

Lucy finished complaining as she saw Janice was still covering her head. Only then did she remember to ask, "Janice, are you all right?"

Janice then removed her hand. "I'm fine."

"How can you say it's nothing. There's already a bump. Let's go to the infirmary to deal with it.", Lucy said.

Janice said, "It's okay. Don't have to go to the infirmary. I'll be fine after I apply some ointment."

Seeing that she insisted, Lucy did not say anything.

The two of them sat down in their cubicles.

Their colleague, Amy Jones, came over and said. "Janice, don't pay attention to Linda. She's been having a bad time recently and is ready to snap at anyone."

Hearing Amy's words, Lucy and Janice glanced at her.

"What bad time is she having?" Lucy asked.

Amy glanced around and whispered, "It's that tech entrepreneur people are talking about. He just returned from abroad. I heard that she has been squatting in front of his offices for more than ten days hoping to score an interview, but she didn't even glimpse the guy. She was just scolded by the chief and was looking for a place to vent, and unfortunately it was you girls who suffered."

"So that's what happened."

However, Janice was a little surprised. "Who's the new star? Why haven't we heard about this?"

...

"Yes, yes," Lucy chimed in.

Amy replied, "It was an instruction sent about two weeks ago. At that time, you were both busy with your own tasks, so you naturally didn't know."

Janice thought it was reasonable. Two weeks ago, she had a case and was also occupied with marriage matters. How could she have been in the mood to care?

"Do you have any information about that entrepreneur? Share it so we can know too." Lucy asked curiously.

Amy shook her head. "I only know that his name is Christopher Bateman."

"Who?" Janice was stunned.

"Christopher Bateman."

However, Janice was perplexed by this name. "Christopher Bateman? This guy has the same name as my husband. Is it just a coincidence?"

"Do you have any photos of him?" Janice asked hurriedly.

Amy shook her head. "I don't. That's why Linda wants to be the first to interview him, so that she can show off."

After Amy left, Lucy whispered to Janice.

"Why don't we follow that story together? Maybe we can do better than Linda."

Janice was a little hesitant. "Isn't that bad?"

"There's nothing bad about it. This article was made public to our department, and it doesn't belong to just her. Besides, there's a performance appraisal at the end of the month. Have you got enough articles?"

Janice shook her head.

"Let's work together to get this exclusive interview then. Once we have it, we won't have to worry about the appraisal."

Upon hearing Lucy's words, Janice was a little tempted. After all, such a hot article would be better than some minor news piece.

"Well, tell me what you need me to do."

"Okay, I'll go and collect some information about that guy first."

"Okay."

That night, when Janice returned home, Christopher was sitting on the sofa reading a book. When he heard the sound of the opening door, he looked up and saw the bump on Janice's head. He put down his book and walked over with a frown. "What happened?"

Janice didn't want Christopher to know that he had been bullied in the station, so she said, "Nothing, I just accidentally bumped into something."

Christopher was a little speechless. He pulled her over to the sofa and make her sit down. He then took some ointment and applied it on her.

Janice watched Christopher carefully applying ointment while gently blowing on her wound. She couldn't help feeling sweet in her heart.

Thinking of the interesting things she had heard in the TV station, she couldn't help but share them with Christopher. "Chris, I learned about someone with your name today."

Christopher was applying ointment with a cotton stick. When he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. "What person has my name?"

Janice said, "It's a new rising talent in the technology field, who has just set up a new office here."

Hearing this, Christopher was stunned. He then glanced at the book he had set down on the coffee table. He was about to quietly move it to one side while Janice wasn't looking, but he didn't expect his actions to instead attract her attention.

"By the way, what book were you reading just now?" Janice picked up the book on the coffee table before him. Christopher had no choice but to withdraw his hand.

Janice flipped through the book and could not help but be surprised. "You're reading a science and technology book. What a coincidence. Do you also like these books?"

Christopher said in a daze, "Kind of."

"Oh, then you continue reading. I'm going to write up some news article."

Janice got up and walked towards the room without asking any more questions.

It wasn't until she left that Christopher let out a sigh of relief.

Earlier, he thought Janice was suspicious.

"Why should I feel guilty when I haven't done anything wrong?"

Christopher felt a little exasperated.

...

The next morning, as soon as Janice got up, she received a call from Lucy.

"Janice, I've found out some information. I heard that Mr. Bateman has been going to his offices quite frequently these days. Why don't we go there bright and early to lie in wait? You stake out the back door and I guard the front door."

"Okay."

Janice hung up the phone.

Christopher had already prepared breakfast and beckoned her.

Janice walked over and saw that it was quite sumptuous. She quickly sat down and started eating.

Christopher sat opposite her and watched her wolf down the food. He couldn't help but frown. "Eat slowly, be careful not to choke." It was like dealing with a child sometimes.

He handed her a glass of water.

Janice took it and said, "I have an interview task this morning. I'm in a hurry."

"Oh? Then after you finish eating, I'll give you a ride."

"Okay."

After breakfast, the two of them went out together. Christopher went to pick up the car and Janice waited at the gate.

Not long after, Christopher drove over in the black Bentley.

Janice opened the front passenger door and got into the car.

Janice had already decided that Christopher's car was borrowed. "Christopher is an adult and he has his own ideas. There's nothing wrong for him to borrow a car. Besides, I could give some money to the owner when I get paid". She thought.

As they drove, Christopher looked at Janice and asked, "Where are you doing the interview?"

Janice said, "Just send me somewhere close to Techno Tower."

Hearing this, Christopher was surprised. "What a coincidence. I happen to be going there too."

"Is that so?"

Janice was stunned for a moment. Then she thought of something and asked, "Those are all technology companies. What are you going to do there?"

Only then did Christopher realize his mistake and quickly corrected himself, "I... said that Techno Tower is along the way to where I'm heading. Perfect."

After listening to his explanation, Janice didn't probe further. She just nodded.

Only then did Christopher let out a sigh of relief. He almost exposed himself, but he thought of something. He looked at Janice and said, "By the way, what are you going there for?"

Janice replied, "Of course I'm going for an interview."

"An interview? To who?"

Christopher asked.

"It's the rising talent I told you last night, the one who has the same name as you."

Janice said.

Christopher was stunned. "An interview with him?"

Why wasn't he aware?

With such doubts, the car stopped at the Techno Tower.

Janice unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car. She waved at him and said, "I'm going. Drive carefully."

Christopher nodded. Seeing Janice turn around and walk towards the building, he quickly called Rob. "I have an interview with the TV station today?"

On the other side of the phone, Rob was confused. "I didn't receive any notice of your interview. Oh, but recently, a reporter from a TV station has been making appointments. However, you said that you wouldn't accept any interviews, so I keep rejecting them."

Hearing Rob's words, Christopher was relieved.

But since there was no appointment, what was Janice doing here?

Christopher couldn't figure it out. So he drove the car into the garage and took the private elevator to his office.

Today, Christopher's schedule was very full. He was in meetings the whole morning.

At about 10 o'clock, he suddenly thought of something and ordered his secretary, Cecilia Oden, "Go and get Rob."

"Yes."

Cecilia turned around and went out.

Soon, Rob walked in. "Mr. Bateman, you're looking for me."

Christopher looked at Rob and said, "Go and take a look around the building, see if Janice is around?"

Rob was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to enquire further. He nodded and turned to leave.
