Janet Lind の小説・ストーリー

“And Janet here refused to tell us! Who knows what she saw about level nine? Or the other secrets she might have unlocked?” “Doctor Cheng, I'll pretend you didn't just accuse me.” Janet said icily. I took a deep breath, snorting immediately. Janet continued. “Yes, I saw her going into the archives by camera, but Jade has been keeping an eye on her. For example,” She paused, then I heard the soft tap of her typing on a keyboard. “Jade says he is actively distracting her. Good work, Jade. That buys us time.” Murmurs of approval filled my ears.

"Good. Do it fast. Because the more I learn about Astor Sinclair, the more I realize we've only scratched the surface of what he's capable of." *** At the hospital, Janet sat in the waiting area with her laptop plugged into the wall extension, her fingers flying across the keyboard. She was deep into code, debugging something for the real estate company's new website, trying to keep her mind occupied. Liam had walked in an hour earlier looking haunted. Broken. He'd said he'd be okay, that he didn't want to talk about it. Janet understood. Sometimes silence was the only way to survive the weight of everything crashing down.

Janet was flipping through a magazine in the garden to distract herself from the surrounding chaos. Sebastian’s mom’s meanness was making it impossible for her to breathe in the same air as them, and she had no idea how long she’d put up with it. She thought Sebastian would come to her defense, but now maybe he was taking pleasure in his mum insulting her. Janet picked up a glass of juice when her eyes landed on Larisa and her personal maid, Mel. She pretended to mind her business but kept her eyes on them under her black sunglasses. “Larisa always seems anxious when Mel is around,” she concluded.

"Janet? My old boss Janet?" "I hired her six months after we got back from witness protection. Executive assistant to the board of directors." Elena stared at me. "You hired Janet? Why didn't you tell me?" "I wanted to surprise you. And I needed someone I could trust completely." "So you hired someone who was loyal to me." "Exactly." I pulled out a burner phone and dialed Janet's direct line. She answered on the second ring. "Blackwood Industries, Board Relations." "Janet, it's Adrian."

“You’ll have all of them watching.” “I know.” Something unreadable crossed his face. “Including her.” The seed of irritation bloomed instantly. “So she is coming.” “She’s not just coming,” he said calmly. “She’s been announced.” I turned to face him fully. “Announced as what?” “Strategic consultant,” he replied. “Geralt International.” There it was. Janet Lut didn’t just haunt rooms. She infiltrated them. I laughed softly. “Impressive, I assume her qualifications include whispering and hovering.”

Julia’s face had gone pale. “Do you know who he is?” she asked. Valerie nodded slowly. “Drugo Hawthorne.” Julia sucked in a sharp breath. “That—Val, that’s dangerous,” she said immediately. “Do you know what kind of man that is?” Valerie shook her head. “I didn’t even know his name until after.” Julia gripped her hands tighter. “Does your family know?” “No,” Valerie said quickly. “They can’t. If they find out—”

"Stupid! You have to threaten her a little to get her to meet you. Anyway, just do what I say. Lure Josephine to the roof and record everything that happens. Let Lucas arrange the act later." "But Lind--" "Come on, Janeth, do me a favor. Do you want to see me get beaten by that good-for-nothing woman? I hate her and I hate getting beat by her even more." "Fine, I'll do that, but--" "Trap her and leave the rest to me. I'll wire some money into your account after--" Lindsay panicked when she heard the recording of her voice and Janeth's voice, coming from the phone in Janeth's hand, set to max volume so everyone can hear it. Lindsay pushed Janeth's hand away so that her phone slipped and fell

315 ANNA KYLIN CHESTER I HAD NO idea how long I had been locked in the cell when the door opened. I sat up expecting it to be Vorenus; instead, it was the skinny, sick looking mistress of Vladimir. Her name was Janet or something like that. She stalked to the front of my cell and pouted at me. “So you are a woman… and pretty too.“ If that was meant to be a compliment, it did not sound so, as it was laced with venom.

It was stark white in the damn office, Janet's eyes struggled to adjust for a bit to the brightness. "Miss...?" Professor Lance asked. "Fisher, Professor. Janet Fisher." "Alright, Miss Fisher. Is anything the matter?" Janet felt her mouth go dry for the hndredth time. She had been practicing her lines for what she would say to him, but now, standing in front of him with his piercing grey eyes looking straight at her behind those cute clear glasses, she could not make her mind remember the words.

"I think that's a better use of her time, and we don't want her to crash your work party. What if she forces Ji-Hwan to take her as his plus one?" "You are a genius!" Jeanet squeals, and then she gives her a hug. "I told you I got your back, boo," Linda smiles. Jeanet eyes me expectantly, as if waiting for me to say something negative about them. "Don't worry," I sigh. "I won't say anything. I'm used to you two." "So, are you going to call her?" Linda asks. "You know that she can't do this on such short notice, and she is on holiday. She's just here to visit her brother."
