Chapter 146 Out of Control
Janet said calmly with a faint smile as if it was just a small matter.
However, the listeners couldn’t calm down, and Nigel was worried for her.
Nathaniel felt a lump in his throat. Who had she almost sacrificed her life for?
When he thought that she had such an important existence in her heart, he almost lost control and wanted to ask more questions.
“Who Is It?” He couldn’t help but ask.
Janet glanced at him indifferently. There was no extra expression on her face. She said calmly, “This is another question. There is no need
for me to answer it.”
The game did not ease the atmosphere but made it even more oppressive.
Colin smiled awkwardly, trying to liven up the atmosphere, “It’s been three rounds. Let’s rest for a while and drink some wine before
continuing.”
Nathaniel was already depressed. After the game stopped, he drank glass after glass as if he was not drinking wine but water.
Alfred wanted to persuade him, but seeing his expression, Alfred didn’t dare. Alfred cast a pleading look at Janet, hoping that she could
stop him.
If she persuaded Nathaniel, Nathaniel would definitely listen.
Janet knew what Alfred wanted, but she only glanced at Nathaniel indifferently, saying nothing in the end.
She had said enough in the past. Now, she didn’t want to say anything more.
After drinking some wine, they all felt a little drunk.
At this time. Earl’s cell phone rang.
He went to pick up the call, and when he returned, he looked at the others with an apologetic expression.
“Regarding tomorrow’s process, the venue called and said that there are still some details that need to be confirmed. I have to go.” Earl
said.
Nigel looked at him helplessly.
It wasn’t easy for him to take advantage of this situation to spend more time with Janet. Earl was unreliable.
“I’m sorry. Ms. Longfellow, Mr. Webster. Let’s meet again next time.”
Janet responded with a smile, “It’s fine. See you.”
Earl and Colin left together, so careless that they didn’t notice anything weird.
Seeing that Nigel didn’t leave, Janet asked doubtfully, “Aren’t you going back with them?”
Nigel thought, why would I go back?
I just want to stay here with you.
Nigel was depressed and leaned lazily against the sofa. “There has never been a problem with the things I designed. As for the process.
they can handle it.”
Janet knew his strength and smiled, “That’s true. I don’t know if they are lucky or unlucky to have a careless boss like you.”
“Of course they’re lucky!” Nigel raised his eyebrows.
The people who organized the party left, so the remaining people didn’t want to continue. Janet was a little tipsy. She planned to go back
to the hotel to rest. She could not help but yawn.
‘Are you sleepy?” Nigel sat up straight and looked down at her.
Janet nodded.
“I’ll send you back to the hotel to rest.”
“Okay.”
Janet picked up her bag and stood up. However, just as she took a step forward, a large hand grabbed her wrist. Then, Janet met a pair of
cold, dark eyes.
Nathaniel looked at her and said in an imposing manner, “I’ll send you back.”
