The translation
Hello,
Could you please check this part of my translation too?
The detective was just about to leave. (I am not sure but I think it can’t be left like this. I think I should add 'when the woman told him 'something' or 'the following.' Should I add ‘something’ or ‘the following’)
‘I have just remembered one thing. I went out to take away the trash and then call on George, when I noticed that the front door was open. I heard him talking to a young woman, I think he was painting her. Of course I returned home as it wasn’t proper to disturb them/it was inconvenient for me to disturb them/ I didn’t want to disturb them.’(Which is better to use?)
‘Thank you very much ma’am once again. Goodbye.'
Thanks
