Chapter 444 Alfred Tearing Down the Stage
“Remove this hanging picture. it’s tacky.
“Don’t put the hanger on the right side. It will block the light source from the window.
“The bookshelves should be replaced with metal ones. The wooden ones are bulky
and easy to collect dust.”
Nathaniel made a lot of suggestions and changed the furnishings in the house.
Janet gave Marco a wink and told him to write down what Nathaniel said and do it according to his wor
ds.
After confirmation, the two returned to Janet’s office.
Nathaniel thought for a while and couldn’t help but ask, “Will Nigel come to work with you?”
Janet raised her eye to glance at him, and said in a cold voice, “Yes. Even random cats and
dogs could work here. Do you have any opinion?”
Although he knew that Janet was mocking him, Nathaniel was still in a good mood
because of his uniqueness in
Janet’s heart.
Janet saw Nathaniel smile like a fool, frowned, and was about to ask a question….
Nigel rushed to sort out the data of 45 and sent her an email.
Janet stopped talking nonsense and devoted herself to her work. She wanted to finish processing all th
e data before
tonight.
During off–
duty hours, Marco brought in a boxed light meal, and the two of them hurriedly finished their dinner.
It was not until half past ten in the evening that all work was finally done.
Janet thumped her sore shoulder and neck and heard Nathaniel’s voice.
“I’ll treat you a supper. What do you want to eat?”
Janet saved the data quickly, turned off the computer, and got up to get her bag.
“Not interested in.”
Nathaniel’s coat was draped over his arms, and the two buttons on the collar were unbuttoned, giving h
im an inexplicably abstinent sexiness.
“Are you not interested in me or supper?”
Janet turned around, and the gathered skirt drew a graceful ripple.
“First, I don’t have much interest in you.
“Second.” Kanel Hippest her hair, “beauties don’t need supper. I don’t want to put on weight.”
After finishing speaking, she turned off the lights directly even though Nathaniel was still in the room.
Nathaniel chased into the elevator, resisting the urge to hug her, his eyes fell on Janet’s sharp side face
.
“You’re as skinny as a plece of paper. You don’t need to lose weight at all.”
Janet pressed the button of the basement
floor, folded her arms, and closed her eyes to rest, “I’m not trying to lose weight. It’s healthy self–
management.”
When they arrived on the first floor, Nathaniel did not move.
Janet was surprised, “Aren’t you leaving?”
Nathaniel shook his head, “It’s very late now, it’s not safe for you to go back by yourself. I’ll take you ho
me.”
“No, I’m not going home now, I still have things to do.”
Nathaniel frowned with dissatisfaction, “It’s so late. What are you going to do?”
The elevator went down to the parking lot, and Janet walked out of the elevator first, without answering
him at all.
She had nothing to do with her. Why should she report to him wherever she went?
Nathaniel was left behind and typed a few words on his phone to send to Alfred.
“Go away.”
Nathaniel’s steps were slow but a little bigger than Janet’s, so he followed her leisurely.
“I should go with you, maybe I can help you.”
Janet stopped, looked back at Nathaniel, and could see through his mind at a glance.
“Unnecessary.”
Nathaniel’s upper body leaned forward, and the approaching breath made Janet have a mixed feeling i
nexplicably.
“Alfred drove the car away, and I’m not in a hurry to go home now. Just take it as a walk with me, okay?
”
Just as Janet was about to push him away, two bright car lights behind them suddenly turned on. Some
one flicked his double flashes as if he was afraid that others wouldn’t notice him.
Nathaniel’s face darkened in this daylight–like light.
Janet turned her head to adjust to the light and just happened to meet the eyes of the person in the car
behind her.
As soon as the man saw Janet, he immediately bent down, his upper body stuck to the steering wheel,
trying to reduce his sense of existence.
Janet turned her head and glanced at the stunned Nathaniel with a teasing smile.
The crisp sound of high heels falling on the concrete floor resounded throughout the empty parking lot
. Janet approached the car and knocked on the glass of the driver’s cab.
“I heard from your boss that you had driven his car away?”
Alfred complained endlessly.
The signal in the basement was so poor that Alfred couldn’t even watch a movie.
As soon as he received Nathaniel’s text message, he started the car and was about to slip away. But h
e accidentally turned on the double flashing lights and was caught by Janet.
Alfred straightened up and forced a smile as he said, “Well, what a coincidence, Ms. Longfellow. I… I di
d drive the car away and return now…”
“Since you’re back, just take him home quickly.”
Janet didn’t even look at Nathaniel, went back to her car, and drove away.
Alfred endured the murderous stare from ten meters away alone through the front window of the car an
d touched the windshield uneasily.
Was this window really bulletproof? Why did he think it couldn’t even resist Mr. Webster’s sharp eye?
Janet left the company and drove to the south of the city alone.
Different from the bright and busy east, and the west of the city which was waiting to be built, the south
of the city was unique.
Twenty years ago, it was the former city center, among which the York District was the most prosperous
.
With the changes in urban planning, the York District gradually evolved into a neglected zone between
administrative regions.
During the day, the York District was quiet here, but when night fell, it would be full of feasting lights and
heavy
traffic.
There were bars, dance halls, massage shops, and chess rooms. Countless men and women were loo
king for a moment of pleasure here, crazily releasing their desire and passion.
Janet slowed down and drove slowly on the narrow alleyway. There were stalls randomly on both sides
of the driveway.
From time to time,
some drunken people rushed out and hit the hood of the car, then got up and walked away as if nothing
happened.
It took her fifteen minutes to drive 500 meters.
Finally, she parked the cat in front of a small single family building and walked into the gate.
This small building with blue bricks and white tiles
looked old From the outside, It looked like a paradise like ancient post, which was incompatible with the
surrounding modern buildings.
This was Janet’s destination tonight, the largest jewelry trading market in the south of the city, Treasure
House,
Eight security guards stood at the entrance of the small building and were all heavily armed. Seeing Ja
net approaching, one of them came forward to meet her.
Janet took out a purple–gold card from her bag with the note “noors“.
After the security guard took the card and checked it, he immediately bowed respectfully as he said, “Pl
ease follow
TTC.”
The small building didn’t look big, but it was unique inside.
There were all kinds of precious jewels scattered in the glass showcases. The soothing and melodious
music was heard. Every customer was well–dressed, and the waiters walked around
to serve them drinks.
The security guard led Janet to the third floor, where she found a middle–aged man in a black
and red suit.
The
man made a gesture respectfully as he said, “Oh, it’s a distinguished guest. I’m sorry I didn’t welcome y
ou in person.”
Janet took a look at the man and asked, “Who are you?”NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
