Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 184

After shaking hands with Alicia, Bruce turned around and instructed a rough- looking bodyguard beside him.

Alicia smiled and glanced at the man beside him. She suddenly noticed that the way they handled matters didn't seem to be that of a decent business. At the very least, it was totally different from the feeling that Frederick gave her!

However, Alicia didn't show her thoughts. Instead, she thought that maybe Frederick gave her a better feeling because he was really handsome. He was a little picky, therefore he took great care of his image and he would always wear suits, appearing elegant and cold.

Socializing was also important in sealing a deal, hence Alicia followed them in.

Inside the private room, there were many men and women. It seemed that Mr. Jackman was quite prestigious. As soon as the two of them walked in, some of them got up to give way.

Alicia smiled at them, her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.

Mr. Jackman obviously had a good impression of Alicia. He motioned for her to sit down before offering her a glass of wine. "She's the beautiful translator I just hired! Just enjoy yourselves, there's no need to be prudish! Miss Blanchard, here's to you!"

Alicia got up and waved her hands, slightly embarrassed.

"Thank you for your praise, Mr. Jackman. It's an honor to meet you but I have a weak heart. You see, I can't drink alcohol. I even have to bring my medicine with me everywhere I go. I'll toast you with water instead of wine and I hope you understand!"

With that, she had already taken out her own bottle of water. She was indeed a woman of beauty, calmness, and intelligence!

Bruce took a look and couldn't figure if she was telling the truth. However, he had a good impression of the way she carried herself and handled matters. He understood something but he didn't say anything; he just touched glasses with her.

"Alright!"

The bodyguard was soon done with the preparations and Mr. Jackman personally brought her to the room. He then handed her two papers from his messenger bag.

"Miss Blanchard, I'll give you six thousand dollars for these two papers as four thousand is an inauspicious number to me! But, I'll remind you again, the data on these papers are confidential. You should not leak anything out! If I find out that you've leaked anything, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Jackman. I'm a translator, not a spy! I respect my job and hope that you will trust me! I won't leak a word of anything I see!"

Bruce narrowed his eyes and nodded, then unfolded the paper. Alicia took a look.

"No problem! It'll be done in a jiffy!" she stated calmly.

She thought that there would be confidential secrets but it turned out that it was just a pharmaceutical prescription! She had done medical translation jobs, therefore she had done a large amount of research. She went through a lot of information that was in Spanish previously, thus she wouldn't have a problem even if it were in Russian, let alone Spanish.

At that instant, Bruce couldn't help but look at her admiringly again. "Just call me when you're done!"

As Alicia sat down, he headed toward the door. "Don't disturb Miss Blanchard nor let anyone disturb her!"

Looking at the laptop, Alicia noticed that it had been cleared up. Bruce looked rough but he was actually very thorough.

Alicia created a new document and unfolded the paper. Although she wasn't used to typing on another laptop, she was professional and slowly increased her typing speed.

Halfway through the translating, she understood that it was a formula for a drug.
