Read My Past is Just Prologue By Louisa Dillon Chapter 136 – Janet’s Glorious Past
“Are you alright?”
Janet glanced at Nigel and smiled. She asked back casually, “Why am I not alright?”
Seeing that Janet was unwilling to talk about those things, Nigel smiled and changed the topic.
Nigel asked, “How is it, Jill? Are you surprised to see me today?”
Janet raised her eyebrows slightly. “I really didn’t expect to see you here.”
Of course, Janet was surprised.
Janet hadn’t seen Nigel for many years. She didn’t expect that she would coincidentally meet Nigel at
the Convention.
“It has been a few years, but you’re still the same as when we first met. Nothing has changed,” Nigel
sighed. “You’re still so beautiful.”
“In terms of beauty, I am really no match for you.” Janet blinked at Nigel. She teased, “Who doesn’t
know that Mr. Wheeler is extremely beautiful? Many women would feel ashamed of their inferiority in
front of you.”
“Jill… Why do I feel like you are not praising me? How can you say a man is beautiful?” Nigel looked as
if he had been struck by a blow. He
covered his chest with one hand and pretended to be hurt. “It’s heartbreaking!”
Seeing Nigel like this, Janet couldn’t help but laugh. Janet didn’t feel that gloomy anymore, and her
mood had turned better.
Janet knew that Nigel had noticed that she was in a bad mood. So he was deliberately teasing her.
A few years ago, Janet had participated in a hacking contest anonymously. During the contest, Nigel
was completely defeated by Janet.
Nigel, who had never won second place, felt ashamed and insisted on investigating who the winner
was. However, he found nothing.
Janet originally didn’t want to expose her identity. However, Nigel was too persistent and wanted to
challenge Janet to a duel If Janet lost.
she would have to meet Nigel face to face.
Of course, Nigel lost again… However, this time, Janet thought that Nigel’s hacking skills were actually
very good. Janet appreciated Nigel
very much and agreed to meet.
Then, they became friends who were like-minded.
Nigel looked at Janet with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. He sighed, “Unfortunately, you suddenly
married someone three years ago. It
makes me heartbroken!
“It’s not easy for me to meet such a strong companion like you, Jill. If I were to say that you shouldn’t
have married someone in the first
place, how good would it be if you worked with me for software development? If we work together,
there will be nothing in this world that
we can’t conquer. Wouldn’t this be more interesting?”
Janet was one in a million great technical genius. She was the one who kept a low profile during the
anonymous competition, but then she completely disappeared from the field of hackers. Nigel really felt
that it was a pity.
Especially when Nigel knew that Janet had disappeared for three years and married a man who did not
know how to cherish her, he felt
very sorry for her. Nigel also felt sad.
However, Nigel couldn’t let Janet know about his feelings for the time being. He didn’t want to scare
her.
Nigel thought, we still have time. There is no need to act in a rush.
After Janet heard Nigel’s words, the light in her eyes dimmed.
Janet really liked the software development. But since she hid her Identity and married Nathaniel, she
had never touched it again. Thinking
about it now, Janet really felt it was a pity.
But at the same time, Janet caught some important information from Nigel’s words.
“Have you been doing software development for the past few years? I remembered that you were a Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
network security engineer in the
security department. Did you quit your job?” Janet teased with a smile.
Janet remembered that Nigel had been specially hired to design security protection software for a
security department. Later, Nigel was
officially hired by that security department and stayed in Washington D.C. Janet didn’t expect that Nigel
had already become a software
development engineer and come to Austin to host the New-Media Industry Convention this time.
Nigel put his index finger in front of his mouth and gently shushed her. Then, he said with a mysterious
look on his face, “Don’t make it
public. In fact, this is my sideline.”
Seeing Nigel being so exaggerated, Janet didn’t believe it and lightly punched him on the shoulder.
“Will you stop?”
Nigel put away his humor and stared at Janet seriously. He blinked his eyes from time to time, which
looked quite charming.
But Janet was immune to it and was not moved at all.
Nigel lowered his voice and whispered in Janet’s ear, “Well, in fact, I especially came here for an
important person.”
