Chapter 273 Bribed by Nathaniel
Noticing Janet was indifferent, Nathaniel was overwhelmed by
disappointment.
He had thought she would show some emotions.
It seemed it was his wishful thinking.
With such a cold attitude, Janet probably really hated him and wished he
could go back.
Nathaniel held back the words he wanted to say.
He had wanted to tell Janet about the kidnappers as a way to start a
conversation and fulfill his promise to her.
He had said he would find the kidnappers and give Janet an explanation, but now it seemed even if he said it, Janet would only misunderstand him.
Moreover… This thing had to be verified.
“Nothing. I just feel like I need to tell you.” Nathaniel’s tone turned flat, and he lowered his eyes, his face slightly cold. “Goodbye.”
Having said that, Nathaniel turned around and walked toward the door.
“Nathaniel, have you thought of what you would like for the gift?”
Janet’s cold voice suddenly rang out behind him, and Nathaniel automatically stopped in his tracks.
He turned back to look at Janet, his eyes unfathomable.
Janet looked at him indifferently. “There is a time limit to your gratitude and gift. If you don’t say it now, I will not wait until you return to the country.”

Looking at Janet’s cold expression and hearing her flat tone, Nathaniel felt
his chest tighten uncomfortably.
Did she want to draw a clear line with him?
How much did she hate him?
A gloomy look flashed across Nathaniel’s eyes, and he said in a mocking
tone, “This is the first time I’ve heard there is a time limit to the gift of
gratitude.”
“What is it, Mr. Webster? Do you have any questions?” Janet asked,
unaffected by his attitude.
“No.” Nathaniel said with a cold smile, “Don’t worry. I will make it before the deadline. Please give me a definite date, Ms. Longfellow, so that I can make
plans.”
Having said that, Nathaniel turned around and strode away.
Watching Nathaniel’s back disappear, Janet suddenly felt a great sense of
loss.
Her mind drifted for a moment, and she slowly leaned against the pillow, looking at the ceiling in a daze.
affected by him.
It was better to cut it off as soon as possible.
Just as Janet thought about it, Beacher carefully pushed open the door and
entered.
Janet looked at him coldly.
Beacher chuckled, “Jill, how is your rest? Donahue said…”
“Why did you let Nathaniel in?” Janet frowned and interrupted Beacher
mercilessly.
Beacher didn’t know what to say, and his smile became guilty.

“Well, let’s not talk about this for now. You asked what kind of flowers Donahue liked. Do you want to make jewelry for him? Do you need my help?”
Janet wasn’t satisfied with his perfunctory answer. She crossed her arms around her chest and raised her chin, her eyes sharp. “Don’t do this. What can you help me with? Let me ask you. Why did you let Nathaniel in?”
Beacher was about to go crazy. Why does she have to know?
“Were you bribed by Nathaniel?” Janet narrowed her eyes.
