Chapter35
Emery rushed in, hesitated for a moment, glanced at the door, then at the two people facing off in the room, unsure whether to open the door or not.
The current situation is not suitable for letting outsiders in.
Lizzie then said, “Emery, please help me open the door. I have finished talking with Mr. Howland.”
Emery glanced at Lizzie, saw she was calm, so he swallowed his anger and went to open the courtyard door.
Open the door, please!
He just didn’t believe it, Theron could still pester Lizzie in front of outsiders!

The door opened, Fredrick stood at the doorway, holding a file bag. When he saw Emery open the door, he quickly asked, “Hey, what’s up?”
“Excuse me, is this Ms. Trevino’s house?”
Emery nodded, “Yes, Lizzie is my niece. And you are…”
“I’m the manager of Malgrave Bookstore. Ms. Trevino hasn’t been to the bookstore for two days. I came to check on her, is she facing any difficulties? Why hasn’t the manuscript been translated yet?”
Normally, the manuscript Lizzie brought home would take others at least a week to translate, but Lizzie translated it super quickly.
And he was secretly hoping that Lizzie would come, so he could tell her about promoting her to an intermediate trans- lator.
This expectation, it’s like I’ve been waiting for it my whole life, but it never came true.
When Lizzie didn’t come back to hand in the translation for two days, he anxiously went to the address she had left at
the bookstore.
As he was talking, he couldn’t help but look into the yard, searching for Lizzie’s figure.
. A man in uniform stood upright, looking a bit pale.
He didn’t see Lizzie, so he thought it was rude and looked away.
At that moment, Lizzie’s voice came from inside.
“Fredrick, come in.”
When Fredrick heard Lizzie’s voice, the big stone that had been weighing on his heart finally dropped.

He took another look at Theron, then pulled out a brand new certificate from his briefcase and handed it over.
“This is your Intermediate Translator Certificate, with the approval stamped on it. Congratulations, Ms. Trevino! From now on, you are an intermediate translator. Keep working hard and aim to get the advanced translator title
soon!”
Fredrick was super excited when he talked about the “advanced translator“.
“I will.” Lizzie promised with a smile.
In this lifetime, she had to make it happen.
Theron had already decided not to continue the conversation today because there were outsiders present, and was about to find an excuse to leave.

Out of the blue, he heard the words “intermediate translator” and suddenly looked at Lizzie, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Immediately, almost without thinking, he blurted out the words.
“Since you have the ability to find a job like this, why do you keep holding onto Johanna and insist on competing with her for that position?”
“Haha!”
Lizzie was amused by Theron’s presumptuous tone.
She walked slowly to Theron with a cane, then raised her hand.
“Pap!”
A loud and crisp slap landed hard on Theron’s face.
“Theron, you have hands and feet, you can work on the ground, why not give your professor position to your younger brother Vaughn Howland!”
Theron frowned as a knot, “Lizzie’s words were just being difficult,” he felt annoyed.
“How could I just give up my position to him? This is completely different from your situation with Johanna. Plus, Johanna has a higher education level than you, and her research has made a greater contribution to the country, that’s a fact.”
“Ha.”
Lizzie let out a cold, mocking laugh from her throat.
“Her contribution?”
Lizzie seemed to have heard the biggest joke ever!

“Her contribution was stealing my research findings, putting her own name on it, and then accepting recognition. Is that her contribution?”
And not only that, in her past life, she had to go back home out of helplessness, but she didn’t give up her interest in scientific research. She did research at home, and all those research results were given to Johanna by Theron!
The reason is, since she’s at home anyway, holding onto these results will just let them gather dust. It’s better to give them to Johanna, so that these research findings can shine and contribute to the country!
Wow!
They have no shame!
She had to stay at home, blame it on who!
Lizzie’s eyes were like ice–cold knives, piercing straight at Theron.

Theron’s frown deepened, he didn’t like Lizzie’s aggressive attitude right now, how did she become like this? She wasn’t like this before.
He turned his gaze to Emery.
“Lizzie, what’s the big deal about stealing? Don’t be so harsh with your words.”
“Was it bad?”
