Chapter 64
Eudora glimpsed at Cindy, and said vexedly, “Stop your nonsense. In this world, women must be competent enough. God knows what will happen after you get married!”
Leonard found it a little bit ridiculous. He said, “Are you out of your mind? Competent women should have their own
businesses. That’s true. But they don’t necessarily have to take advantage of men, right? Nova has her own job. Why are you so hostile to her?”
“What…!” Eudora was furious, but Leonard just grabbed his phone and went out.
So did Nova and Chester.
Nova looked at him. “What can I do for you?”
“Why don’t we talk about it over lunch?”
Nova frowned a little. “I’m not hungry. Why don’t you just tell me right here?” From NôvelDrama.Org.
“But you gotta eat something whether you’re hungry or not. Come on. Don’t maltreat yourself.”
Nova raised her eyebrows and gave him an uncertain smile. “I see. Chief Don’s always in good health.”
Chester nodded naturally. “I am, and I’m hungry too. I need your help with the case against the King Family. It’s important.”
Nova frowned. “That’s exactly what you told me last time.”
He didn’t say much about the case now, which made her think that he only wanted to have lunch with her.
Chester smiled, “This time, I’m telling you the truth. Let’s talk over lunch.”
Nova hesitated a moment, and nodded. “OK. Hold on.”
Nova went back and found Eudora’s long face, who seemed to hate her very much. Nova was a little shocked, but she didn’t say anything about it. She took her phone and went out.
After getting in the car, Chester saw Nova texting on her phone. He raised his eyebrows, approached her, and pulled her
safety belt.
That just stunned Nova. She took back her belt immediately. “I got it.”
Chester raised his eyebrows. “Are you turning me down?”
“Let’s say we’re not supposed to be on intimate terms.” Nova kept her head down, buckled up, and put away her phone. She had just sent a message to Stella.
Chester smiled, “We’re both single now. Maybe we can do something. You know, only the two of us.”
“Please don’t make jokes like this, Chief Don.” Nova was in no mood to continue this conversation, and she didn’t think they two could see each other.
Chester always told her half–truths and tested her, but it didn’t mean that she liked it.
Therefore, she wouldn’t marry him.
She didn’t believe in love, and she may get married again for business, but she would never choose Chester, because… He was dangerous!
He was driving. Nova didn’t ask about the case in a hurry.
When they arrived, Chester gently told her, “I’ll park the car and get back soon. You can go in there now. Just say my name to the servants.”
Nova nodded and got off.
But… you never know what might happen next minute. As soon as she came in the lobby, she found several ladies standing around a lady, flattering her.
Nova looked indifferent and kept going, but Kelly spotted her and smiled to her, “Nova.”
