Beacher was both angry and amused. “I see it now. So, you were pretending
back then?”
As he spoke, he pinched Janet’s nose and let out a dissatisfied snort, saying, “You dare to lie to Marvin.
Believe it or not, I might tell on you!”
Janet blinked and smiled fawningly, “It
wasn’t a lie, alright? I was serious. The anesthetic has worn off. It’s just that it was not as serious as wh
at I claimed.”
Beacher did not care how Janet explained. “No way! You need to rest now! Forget about Donahue or
Marvin. I won’t agree with that whatsoever! Just focus on getting better, and we’ll talk
about everything after you heal.”
Janet had expected that Beacher would not agree with her so easily. Therefore, she decided to change
her tactics and play rough. She curled
her lips and revealed a malicious smile, saying, “Alright then. I’ll tell Donahue.
“I’ll tell him that you bullied me. You drove Lily away, and I tugged at my wound while moving around. Al
so, you kept nagging, giving me a headache.”
“Hey! You damn girl!”
Beacher looked at Janet’s crafty eyes and did not know whether to laugh or
cry. She always got him.
He knew very well that Donahue would buy Janet’s words. If so, he would be
the second Nathaniel.
Janet keenly caught the hesitation in Beacher’s eyes. She had been sensible enough when dealing wit
h him, and she knew that
it was time to change her tactics again. So, she softened her tone again and said, “Beacher, please! Yo
u are the best. You dote on me the most.”

Beacher had no choice, feeling his hands were tied. “Alright… Fine! I promise
you, OK? You know your way around pestering others. You are so
mischievous even when you’re sick.”
Janet was satisfied and smiled heartily.
“But not now. Donahue’s men are out there. Wait till night. I’ll smuggle it in at
night when they’re asleep!” Beacher lowered his voice.
Janet nodded with her eyes narrowed. Of course, it was alright, as long as
she could get her miniature computer. “Alright! Thank you, Beacher!”
The ward was filled with joy, as if spring had arrived. However, Nathaniel and
Donahue were like being in winter, and the atmosphere between them was
very somber.
The two walked out of the ward and went straight to the vacant ward next to
that of Janet.
Nathaniel could feel the cold aura coming from Donahue, and he could even
feel Donahue’s dissatisfaction toward him. For a person like Donahue to
show such emotions, it could be seen how unhappy he was with Nathaniel.
Nathaniel remained calm and collected.
Donahue walked to the window and stopped in his tracks, turning around to size Nathaniel up.
Donahue’s eyes were arrogant, and it looked like he was scrutinizing Nathaniel, which made the latter v
ery unhappy. The muscles on Nathaniel’s body tightened instantly, and he unconsciously cooled down
his expression, looking at Nathaniel without any fear.
It seemed that Donahue didn’t notice Nathaniel’s expression change at all. Donahue suddenly withdrew
his gaze, smiled, sat down on the sofa, and

waved his hand to invite Nathaniel to sit down. “Let’s talk.”
Donahue’s every movement was elegant and graceful, and it was the natural
dignity and prestige of a superior. Nathaniel sat opposite Donahue with a
cold face.
“Mr. Smedley, I wonder what you want to talk to me about.”
Donahue smiled and looked at Nathaniel with his dark, obscure eyes. After a
long time, he said slowly, “Mr. Webster, this time, I have to thank you for
saving Janet and sending her to the hospital. Logically, the entire Smedley
family should be grateful for your help.”
Although Donahue was thanking him, Nathaniel was very displeased. He
thought, she is my ex–wife. Why are you thanking me? That doesn’t make
sense at all.
Nathaniel frowned and said calmly, “No need. Anyway, Janet used to be my
wife, so it is only right for me to save her.”
Hearing his words, Donahue sneered, “Since you are divorced, you are
strangers. Mr. Webster, you are a businessman as well, and I don’t think you
lack anything. However, to express our gratitude…”
With a smile, Donahue knocked on the tea table with one finger. He
continued, “Mr. Webster, name your price. Whatever you say.”
Hearing Donahue’s words, Nathaniel raised his head abruptly to look at
Donahue. Perhaps because Donahue
and Janet were cousins, Donahue’s face reminded Nathaniel of Janet vaguely.
However, though both Janet and Donahue wanted to buy him off, the former
was as cunning as a fox, while the latter was a bully.
Nathaniel looked at Donahue with a half–smile. “Mr. Smedley, do you think I

am short of money?”
Donahue smiled, not saying a word.
“Mr. Smedley, there is no need to thank me with money. You don’t have to do
that,” Nathaniel said with a poker face, and the smile on his face vanished.
“Mr. Webster, you are surprisingly generous. No wonder women like you so
easily,” Donahue said with cold eyes. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
While talking, Donahue said in a very calm voice, not revealing any
unnecessary emotions. However, Nathaniel felt full of disgust and ridicule
from Donahue’s tone.
It was a very subtle and indescribable feeling, but Nathaniel somehow knew
that Donahue was implying his relationship with Anastasia.
“Mr. Smedley, you flatter me. Well, I am very curious about one thing.”
Nathaniel ignored Donahue’s unfriendly attitude. Then he said directly, “Why
was Janet being hunted down? As far as I am concerned, she has been
targeted by at least two groups of people in and outside the country.”
“It has nothing to do with you,” said Donahue, his smile fading, his eyes
turning colder.
Nathaniel’s expression, on the other hand, eased up, and he looked at
Donahue with a smile. He said, “Mr. Smedley, didn’t you just say that you
wanted to thank me? I saved Janet. Aren’t I qualified to ask this?”
Donahue didn’t say anything. Nathaniel paused for a second and continued,
“Now that we have saved her, it is very likely that those people will hold a
grudge against us. Waiting for them to show up passively might leave Janet
in danger. Compared with that, why don’t we take the initiative to attack?
What do you think, Mr. Smedley?”

Donahue looked at Nathaniel, sneering disdainfully deep down.
Donahue thought, I haven’t forgotten what Nathaniel has done to Janet.
Janet is the apple of everyone’s eye. Both the Longfellow family and
the Smedley family dote on her so much. Yet he tortured her that much. I could
barely put up with him.
If Nathaniel hadn’t saved Janet this time, I wouldn’t have allowed him to
stand in front of me and speak.
Besides, Nathaniel already has a “perfect match” by his side.
“You? Don’t make me laugh!” Donahue was so angry that he laughed instead.
