Read My Past is Just Prologue By Louisa Dillon Chapter 119 – Your Breathing Disturbs Me
After Janet finished speaking, she turned her eyes away from Nathaniel.
The man’s expression was as cool as ever, nothing could be seen.
Willis looked blank, and Alfred silently prayed for him.
“Boy, you need to learn the art of speaking before you learn the language,” he thought.
Nathaniel didn’t intend to leave. Instead, he got himself a chair and sat next to Janet, looking at her computer screen leisurely.
The man’s breath was so close, which interrupted Janet’s thinking.
But after a moment, she returned to normal, pretending that he didn’t exist. However, he was still a disturbance, so her efficiency was slower than before.
“Well, I thought you could do better.”
The man’s mocking words rang in Janet’s ears.
She glared at him angrily, “Stay away from me, and I can finish this faster. Your breathing disturbs me.”
Nathaniel didn’t know how to reply.
Janet became sharper after the divorce.
Nathaniel glanced at her and said in an unhurried tone, “It’s not about me but your competency.”
“You sound like you are some master,” Janet coldly replied. She would prove herself to Nathaniel!
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Alfred quickly spoke, “Mr. Webster can speak eight languages, including Esbanol.”
Janet gave him a cold look, full of warning.
In order not to waste her time, she didn’t say anything, but she wouldn’t endure them again and again.
Alfred lowered his head and pretended not to see it.
Janet glanced at Nathaniel again. She couldn’t tell that Nathaniel was a language master. She assumed he only knew how to say hello in eight languages.
Nathaniel caught the disgust in her eyes, and his face darkened a bit.
Janet ignored him and concentrated on translating.
For the next two hours, Janet focused on translating in front of the computer. Willis couldn’t help, so he served tea and water
to help.
