Chapter 242 Feel Chilled To The Bone
It was late at night.
Janet was exhausted and was about to go to bed when someone gently knocked on the door.
Her eyebrows moved slightly, and a trace of guilt and helplessness flashed through her eyes. She
went
forward and opened the door.
Sure enough, Nigel was standing at the door.
His expression was difficult to read. There was a perfect smile on his lips.
For some reason, Janet felt a little guilty. She coughed lightly. “You’re back?”
There was something in the depth of Nigel’s eyes. He nodded slightly without saying anything.
Janet subconsciously wanted to explain, but Nigel spoke first.
“You were absent from the celebration party today. I will make it up for you tomorrow!” The upset on
Nigel’s
face seemed to have disappeared a little. He smiled as usual, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction
in his
brisk voice.
The moment he knocked on the door and saw Janet, Nigel was thinking about asking her why she
came back
early.
Did she not want to meet him there?
However, when he saw Janet’s hesitant expression, Nigel retreated. He didn’t want to ask anymore.
The answer to the question was most likely not what he wanted. Since that was the case, why should
he
ask?
Maybe he should leave it like this…
“There’s no need for that, Nigel. We’ve already held the celebration party today. The award this time
wasn’t
won by me alone. My team members also contributed, and they attended the party. Today… I’m very
sorry to
have missed the appointment. I was too tired, so I came back early.”
The smile on Nigel’s face instantly stiffened, but in an instant, he returned to his usual look. He acted
to
complain with a smile. “Are you serious? You were fine before you left, but you became tired so quickly.
Could
it be that you were afraid that I was going to confess on the rooftop, so you ran off halfway?”
Seeing that he did not seem to care at all, Janet was more or less relieved.
Afraid that Nigel would misunderstand again, Janet became more serious. “And I have something to
do
tomorrow, so I really don’t have time.”
Hearing this, Nigel suppressed the disappointment in his heart. He cheered himself slightly.
“Tomorrow? Is
there something urgent? Do you need me to go with you?
“Thank you for your kindness, but I want to go myself.” Janet pursed her lips.

She wanted to find the witness herself and then personally catch the murderer who killed her parents!
The next morning.
Janet left before dawn to avoid meeting Nigel again.
The bodyguards of the Longfellow family and the Smedley family had already gathered outside the
door, waiting for Janet.
The car started and rushed to the destination,
On the way, Janet sat in the car and watched the scenery outside the car window move back rapidly,
but she
still felt that it was not fast enough and wanted to fly there immediately.
Suddenly, there was a collision and the car came to a sudden stop. Janet leaned forward because of
inertia.
She frowned and looked out.
Before they could see what was going on, they heard the driver say nervously, “Ms. Longfellow! We hit
a car!”
Janet frowned and got out of the car.
They hit a black car. The driver was a muscular man with blond hair and blue eyes. He had already
gotten out
of the car and walked towards them fiercely. He was still muttering something. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Janet could hear clearly that the muscular man didn’t say anything good.
However, Janet didn’t want to argue. She still had more important things to do.
“You guys deal with it here. Don’t make it big.” Janet ordered the bodyguards with a low voice. “Stay
low-key.
I’ll take a taxi there myself.”
The bodyguards hesitated and said that they wanted to go with Janet.
Janet hesitated when she saw the muscular man had walked to their driver and the driver was in a
panic. But
she was in a hurry.
After thinking for a moment, she said coldly, “Order two to come with me. The rest stay here!”
On the one hand, they were not familiar with here. If there was an accident, the driver would not be
alone.
On the other hand, if she brought two people with her, she would be able to get help when facing
something.

Even Beacher had to listen to Janet. So when the bodyguards saw Janet’s cold face, they had no
choice but
to agree. They chose two people with the best skills to follow Janet.
The car drove all the way to the suburbs and stopped in front of a shabby building.
This house was shabby, but it did not look like there was no one living. Janet was more vigilant,
The gate of the house was open. Janet quietly went toward it and found a place that was easy to hide.
She approached a broken window and looked inside.
However, before she could see what was inside, Janet heard a sound from inside…
Janet suddenly felt chilled to the bone, and her back was immediately covered in cold sweats.
