My Past is Just Prologue (Janet and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 44

Read My Past is Just Prologue By Louisa Dillon Chapter 44 – He Bore a Grudge

Janet was waiting for the porcelain she liked to be auctioned.

Looking at the auction list he bought at a high price, Ernest was a little puzzled, “Strange.”

“What’s wrong?”

Janet didn’t trust that list at all.

Ernest frowned, “The list was right except for the porcelain you like. It was supposed to be auctioned before the necklace.”

He bought the list to reassure her because she wanted the porcelain so much.

But it didn’t work, it only made him anxious.

Janet was nervous, “Maybe they changed the order.”

She remembered how much her father had liked it when he was in the hospital.

Unfortunately, Janet didn’t see it until the auction was over.

“I don’t understand.”

Ernest didn’t want Janet to feel bad.

“I’ll ask the manager.”

Janet followed him hurriedly.

Lennon was a little surprised when Janet stopped him.

He asked politely, “What can I do for you?”

He had heard about Janet’s dispute with Winifred at the banquet.

Janet asked, “I’m sorry to bother you, but I came today for a piece of porcelain. I didn’t see it.”

Lennon finally understood why Nathaniel wanted to buy it.

But he couldn’t tell her the truth. He said, “It is not flawless. So I didn’t auction it today.”

Was that so?

Janet was relieved. She smiled, “It’s Okay. I will buy it anyway.”

Lennon didn’t know how to reply to her.

Janet kept saying, “No matter how much it takes, I will buy it. Please.”

Lennon felt guilty for lying to her..

“To be honest, someone has ordered it already.”
