Chapter 172 The Closing Ceremony
The more Winifred thought about it, the more she felt that this was the only way to explain why Nathaniel would speak up for Janet, and
she couldn’t help but feel hatred in her heart.
Quintina was so excited that she unconsciously raised her voice and Winifred was frightened by her.
*Impossible!
“It is impossible for my brother to defend Janet.”
Quintina’s tone was too confident, and there was also a bit of urgency. It was as if she was trying to prove something, which caused
Winifred to be puzzled.
“Why are you sure? Do you know something?”
As a mother, Winifred knew Quintina very well, Winifred thought, Quintina must have something on her mind.
Quintina felt guilty when she was looked at by her mother. She slightly avoided it and said uncomfortably, “No… How would I know
anything? Do you think it is possible that my brother would let me know something?”
Quintina averted Winifred’s gaze, not daring to look directly at Winifred.
She thought, if my mother knew that Janet was pregnant but miscarried because of me, and I lied about it, she would beat me to death.
As for why I knew that my brother wouldn’t change his mind. I couldn’t say it either.
I changed Nathaniel’s investigation results, which was what I wanted.
As long as it confirmed that Janet wasn’t pregnant or abortion, Nathaniel would be disappointed in Janet, and he would no longer think
about investigating what had happened that year. Otherwise, he would have found out that Janet’s miscarriage had something to do with
me sooner or later.
He began with some words of thanks. In the end, he added, “Every software developed contains a lot of my efforts, just like my child, and now my child has another parent. Ms. Longfellow, please take good care of my child.”
Janet didn’t understand the implication of the words that Nigel said.
She took it as a joke and replied, “Don’t worry, I will take good care of your child.”
The two looked at each other from a distance between the stage and the audience. Seeing this scene, coupled with Nigel’s words just
now, some people couldn’t help but start talking about them.
“Mr. Wheeler is handsome and Ms. Longfellow is beautiful, and they are both big shots. They are so compatible.”
“Yes, there is even a ready-made child for them.”
When Janet heard these words, she just realized that the words Nigel said seemed easy to be misunderstood.
So when Nigel got off the stage and sat beside her, she seriously said to him, “Don’t make this kind of joke again. It will make people misunderstand.”
