Chapter 117
Emilia was moved by compassion, and since she did not have anything else to do at the moment, she decided to see if this young man needed any help.
Emilia took the keycard from the front desk and approached the man. “Do you need help? I can speak Sylvonican.”
Patrick suddenly looked up, and at that moment, he felt like he was looking at an angel.
“You speak Sylvonican? Can you translate a contract?”
“I should be able to.”
Emilia was just being modest. Her Sylvonican language skills were more than sufficient for translating a contract.
Patrick was in a desperate situation and eagerly grabbed Emilia’s arm. “Please, can you help me translate this contract? I need to complete it today, but it’s too difficult for me. If I can’t translate it, I’ll lose my job…”
Emilia nodded.
As a student still in school, he had only been studying Sylvonican for about three to four years, with little to no practical experience. His lack of understanding was entirely normal, given that he was faced with the detailed terms of the contract and some specialized terminology.
“Wait for me. I’ll put my luggage back in my room, and then we can go. together.”
“Sure!”
Accompanying Emilia, Patrick went upstairs, keeping his eyes on her. every move, afraid she might run away.
He also wanted to keep Emilia entertained, so he began a conversation by talking to himself. “Actually, today was a rush job for me, too. My mentor initially took this translation job, but he suddenly fell ill with gastroenteritis, including vomiting and diarrhea. So, he convinced me to do it instead, promising me a generous payment. If I had known it would be this difficult, I wouldn’t have come, no matter how much they paid!”
Noticing that Emilia was not responding, he realized they did not know each other and gave an awkward smile as he introduced himself.

I’m Patrick Hoffman, a senior university student at Acocester Foreign Language University. And you?”
Tm Emilia Saunders.”
She responded briefly, returned to her room to stow her luggage, and followed Patrick to the closed lounge.
Patrick took out a paper contract, a laptop, and a thick dictionary from his bag.
“This is the contract. Could you take a look at it?”
Emilia picked up the contract and glanced at it, quickly getting a rough idea of its content.
While it was not particularly difficult, the contract was quite lengthy, so translating it would still take some time.
“No problem.”
Emilia sat down, examined the paper contract for a moment, and then. began typing on the laptop without needing a dictionary.
In less than ten minutes, she had completed a section.
Patrick was amazed. “So fast? Are you sure it’s accurate?”
“You can take a look.”
Emilia turned slightly to the side, her tone calm but exuding confidence, as she invited Patrick to check.
This section contained no rare vocabulary, and Patrick could understand it. He knew that Emilia’s translation was indeed accurate, but her speed was incredible!
He doubted he could be as fast as her if he did it himself.
“You’re incredible! Such high efficiency and accuracy!” Patrick couldn’t help but exclaim.
Emilia just smiled without saying a word and continued with her translation.
Soon, an hour had passed, and half of the contract had been translated smoothly.
Patrick kept praising her, “Excellent! Perfect! You’re my savior! A

goddess!
When Shawn brought Nathan over, he felt a bit anxious.
He did not know if Patrick had managed to get it done. If he messed up, this collaboration could be significantly affected..
Approaching the door of the lounge, the door was slightly ajar, and Patrick’s slightly exaggerated voice came from inside.
“Ms. Saunders! You’re so amazing! Are you studying Sylvonican? Which university are you from?”
Nathan’s heart stirred slightly upon hearing these words.
“Saunders…” he mused.
Shawn obviously did not expect to find two people inside. But at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that Patrick had found someone reliable to help.
However, the next moment, a familiar voice made Nathan slightly furrow his brow, and Shawn was also surprised.
“Be quiet. I can translate faster.”
Through the crack in the door, Nathan could clearly see the people inside. If it wasn’t Emilia, who else could it be?
Nathan stared at the woman’s serious profile, somewhat lost in thought.
Three years of marriage, and he never knew that Emilia had this skill.
