My Past is Just Prologue (Janet and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 184

Chapter 184 Explain to Her
“What’s the matter?”
“Janet…”
Nathaniel’s voice was low. In fact, he regretted it the moment he called her, but he didn’t want to hang up until he heard her voice on the
phone.
Janet said bluntly. “Nathaniel we’ve talked about it. Don’t call me again. You’re lucky enough that I haven’t blacklisted you. If you continue to pester me, I won’t be polite.”
Sensing that Janet wanted to hang up the phone, Nathaniel was a little anxious.
“Anastasia is not pregnant. It was just a rumor. You…”
“What does it have to do with me whether she is pregnant or not?” Janet thought it was funny. “Mr. Webster, you don’t need to call me to tell me how your wife is going on. Even if she is not pregnant, it has nothing to do with me.”
After saying this, Janet hung up the phone and turned it off.
What she didn’t know was that at this moment, Nathaniel was standing by the roadside opposite her house, leaning against the car and
smoking:
After being hung up, he felt inexplicably irritated.
She didn’t care about it at all…
Nathaniel looked up at the window on the second floor of the villa. When he finished smoking a cigarette, the lights in the room went out, but he didn’t leave.
In the middle of the night, the private doctor called him, saying that Anastasia had woken up and wanted to see him.
Nathaniel puffed, put out the cigarette, and threw it into the trash can…
Before he left, he turned back and looked at the window on the second floor again.
He couldn’t let go of Janet.
The night was cold. On the other hand, Conrad returned home. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn’t control himself and smashed his favorite jade into pieces.
The servant at home heard the noise and came out to have a check, It was clear that Conrad was very furious because he even smashed
his favorite jade.
The servant did not dare to go forward to clean it up. Just as the servant was about to call Mathilda, Mathilda and Coral returned home.
They didn’t know what had happened. Coral shared with her mother what she experienced today..
“Mom, the dress is really amazing. The inlaid diamonds are shining, but it is a pity that the black dress isn’t available. If I hadn’t been in a hurry, I would have bought the black one!”
Mathilda smiled and said, “You are my daughter. You always look good. Besides, it is just a customized dress. If you like it, just buy it.”
“Mom, I love you!” Coral kissed Mathilda on the face.
The two of them walked into the living room talking and laughing. When they saw the pieces on the ground and Conrad, who had a terrible
look on his face, their smiles immediately froze.
When Conrad saw the bags in their hands, his face instantly darkened. “What time is It now? Why did you come back so late?”
Mathilda quickly smiled and said, “Isn’t it Coral’s birthday next week? How can she not have a decent new dress at the birthday party? It
took us too long to pick a dress, so we were late.”
Coral thought that her father was only unhappy because they went home late and immediately went up to hold Conrad’s arm and acted like
a spoiled child.
“Yes, Dad. You don’t know how much I want that customized dress. If time permitted, I would have bought it.”
Coral kept ragging. Looking at the pieces of jade on the ground, she could not help but complain, “Dad, why did you smash such an expensive piece of jade? It is worth a lot of money. If you don’t want it, you might as well sell it to buy clothes for me. I don’t have many
clothes in my wardrobe. My friends…”
“Shut up! It’s so noisy. It’s so annoying!”
Conrad was very angry, but what concerned Coral was only money, which made Conrad even angrier.
He pointed at Coral’s nose and cursed, “Trash, what else do you know except buying clothes and cosmetics? It’s useless. You can’t help
me at all!”
Coral widened her eyes, not expecting her father to say this to her.
“Dad, I am your daughter. What’s wrong with me spending money? You are a rich man. If I look good, I will also make you feel proud! How can you say this to me?”
“Don’t you think you’re wrong?” Conrad wanted to give his daughter a slap.
Seeing that Conrad was serious, Mathilda quickly stepped forward to pull Coral and said in a low voice. “Shut up and stop talking. That is your father. How can you talk to him like this?”
Coral felt wronged and her eyes turned red, but she did not say anything else.
Mathilda then turned to appease Conrad, “Hubby, don’t be angry. You know that Coral is frank and outspoken. But what exactly happened that made you so angry?”
Conrad sat on the sofa and sighed heavily.
“I didn’t expect that I would be fooled by Janet. The investment project was completely ruined. I don’t know where she found the evidence that the company wasn’t qualified and suspected that I had a plot with it. If not for those directors pleading. I’m afraid that I would be kicked out of the board of directors by her!”
As soon as Mathilda heard this, she asked worriedly. “Then what happened? How did you deal with it?”
“It’s just her speculation. Without direct evidence, she could only give me a demotion and a reduced salary. I don’t know when things will be on the right track again!”
Coral was shocked. What she cared about was not her father’s career but how she could squander money if her father went bankrupt.
*Janet goes too far! We are her family. How can she treat us like this?”
Coral abused Janet for disregarding blood relations, but only she knew in her heart that what she cared most about was that she would not have so much money to squander in the future!
Coral was a decent lady. How could she lack money? She still had to hold a birthday banquet!
Damn Janet!
Mathilda’s eyes sank and she said, “I will go to the company to talk to her tomorrow. Anyway, I am her aunt. She should respect me.”
Coral immediately said. “I’ll go with you!”
She secretly vowed that if Janet refused their request, she would break up with her on the spot!
