Read My Past is Just Prologue By Louisa Dillon Chapter 40 – Are You Worried about Me?
At this time, they were in a happy mood in their private room of Janet.
“Jill, I heard that you dressed up for me today. Is that true?”
Orville sat on the right side of Janet and slowly slid his slender fingers across the ink bamboo white porcelain cup. His beautiful eyes made one’s heart tremble just by looking at them.
However, Janet was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery before her.
She hadn’t participated in the auction for many years, and it had been a long time since she had felt such an atmosphere.
“It’s not true.”
Janet’s response was quite straightforward.
“Pfft…” Emest was amused by Janet’s attitude and said, “Jill, isn’t your answer a little too heartless?”
Although Janet said so, Orville did not take it to heart. His eyes seemed to fix on Janet, and he asked with a smile.
“What do you like? Tell me, and I’ll buy it for you.”
Hearing Orville’s question, Janet turned around and looked at him, raising her eyebrows slightly; she asked, “What do you think you can buy, but I can’t?”
The current Janet was full of confidence.
Orville instantly shriveled up. Ernest laughed at him rudely, and his laughter reached Nathaniel’s ears.
“I need to go out for a while.”
He didn’t want to see Janet again, and Lennon happened to send his staff here, so he left the private room and decided to discuss the follow-up cooperation with Lennon in advance.
Winifred bought an embroidered pillow that she liked. When she saw Nathaniel leave, she threw a dirty look at Janet, who was in the opposite room.
“She’s just divorced! It’s shameless for her to h**k up with other men in public like that!”
Winifred rolled her eyes grumpily. Even though she had promised Nathaniel not to make things difficult for Janet anymore, she was still thinking about how to deal with Janet so that she could teach her a lesson!
“That’s right! When she was in our family, she served us like a maid. How could she pretend to be a noble lady now? Bah!”
Hearing what Winifred said, Quintina found Nathaniel was not around, and she immediately echoed.
If it weren’t for her fear that Nathaniel would cut off her money, she would have scolded Janet long ago.
“How dare Janet humiliate me like this with two other men! One day, I’ll make her pay!”
When she thought of how the person she had always looked down on had embarrassed her, Winifred was furious, and she also hated Ernest and Orville, who had been defending Janet.
Ernest, who had always been sensitive to people’s malice, noticed Winifred’s disgusted eyes.
The items that Winifred had bought were all for the wedding. Thinking of the gossip about Nathaniel and Anastasia’s marriage a few days ago, Ernest felt that Nathaniel was not worth it to Janet.
“Jill.”
Ernest’s tone was full of concern.
At this time, Janet was not in the mood to pay attention to Nathaniel. She star
waiting for the small porcelain bowl to start biding, “Ernest, do you know when will the property bowls start bid?”
Ernest forcefully swallowed his question back to Janet because Janet didn’t seem to care about Nathaniel.
No matter what, he still wanted Janet to be happy. There was no need to bring up Nathaniel’s matter and affect Janet’s mood.
“I think it should be ranked behind jewelry. After all, the more precious the item is, the later it will appear.”
Ernest smiled gently.
