Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

All the deleted documents were gone.

Kieran wasn’t upset by it. He continued to translate the remaining three documents.

However, his typing speed had slowed down a lot.

Once again, silence ensued in the office. Nobody said anything more.

Time seemed to tick by faster when everyone was busy. In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.

Inez began to pack up her stuff to get off work. “Once you’re done organizing the translated documents, send them to me,” she said casually.

Kieran paused what he was doing and turned to look at her. “Aren’t you going to check them?”

“You’ve finished translating. What is there for me to check?”

Kieran lowered his gaze, finding it hard to speak. “I… I have two more documents left to be translated.”

Inez was stunned. She shot him a look and asked, “You had three documents left one hour ago. And now, there are still two left? What have you been doing for the past hour?”

Inez carefully recalled and didn’t remember seeing Kieran slacking off. He had indeed been focusing on his translation.

Kieran’s face stiffened slightly. He didn’t make any response.

Inez walked over suspiciously and took a look at his computer screen. Soon, she noticed something was amiss.

“I came by earlier and saw that you had translated these documents. Why are they gone? Are you trying to fool me?”

“I accidentally deleted them, so I had to translate them all over again,” Kieran explained calmly.

Inez stared at him in confusion. She immediately clicked the recycle bin on his computer, but it was empty.

“So you’re saying that you accidentally deleted them from the recycle bin too?” she teased.

Kieran fell silent.

“Even if you happened to delete the files for real, judging from your ability, you should be able to translate them again in no time. Do you think I’m easy to fool?” she went on.
