Chapter 31 Spending Valentine’s Day with Her?
“What?”
Nancy was stunned. She thought she must have misheard.
However, before she could react, Christian dragged her into the car.
After getting into the car, Nancy was still in a daze.
At this moment, the friendly young man sitting in front spoke with a smile, “Boss, what’s going on? You haven’t been close to any women for years. Could she be our new sister-in-law?”
“You talk too much,” the man growled.
The young man in front immediately shut his mouth obediently.
For quite some time, Nancy was still stunned.
After a few minutes, she slowly regained her senses, looked at the man, and said, “Why did you help me?”
“If I’m not mistaken, your phone ran out of battery, right?”
“Yes.”
“Helping someone should be helping to the end. Giving you a ride to the hospital was also on the
way,”
“Oh.”
So, that’s why.
Dylan Pierce, who sat in front, let out a deep sigh.
Ah, it seems his plan has gone down the drain.
He thought their boss had finally come to his senses and found a girl he liked.
But unexpectedly, it was again just a help for someone.
“Miss, please don’t mind. My boss has a professional habit of helping people whenever he sees someone in trouble. He has to help someone to the end.”
“Regardless, I am still very grateful”
When they arrived at the hospital, Nancy got out of the car with her suitcase.
1/6
As their car drove away, Nancy suddenly realized something she had forgotten to ask. She didn’t even know the man’s name.
She should have asked that, considering he had helped her multiple times. Remembering someone’s name is also a respect for him.
Dylan had been holding back the entire way inside the car, but after Nancy got out of the car, he couldn’t help but speak up.
“Boss, that girl was quite good-looking. Shouldn’t you consider it?”
“You talk too much.”
“Come on, Boss. Look at you; you’re nearly thirty years old. It’s about time to consider dating someone or starting a family.”
The man raised an eyebrow. He said in a low voice, “What? You’re still working as a matchmaker. Should I apply for a job transfer for you when I return?”
“No, no, no, don’t, Boss. I was wrong, okay?” After replying. Dylan whispered. The main problem. is that if you don’t date, no one in the team dares to date either.”
“What did you say?” Christian’s hearing was quite keen.
Dylan immediately grinned and replied, “I said you’re the most handsome, coolest, number one … Well, you’re the best at everything.
Christian lowered his head and realized that he was still holding the earring.
He forgot to return it to her.
“Dylan, turn back. Go back to the hospital we were just at.”
“Boss, have you had a change of heart? Are you going to look for that beautiful girl?”
When Christian returned to the hospital, he naturally couldn’t find Nancy.
At last, he could only leave with the earring.
After seeing the doctor, getting her ear disinfected, receiving medication, and charging her phone. in the hospital, Nancy took a taxi back home.
By the time she reached home, the sky was already dark.
Nancy pushed the door open and inside was a dark scene.
The spacious room looked empty and deserted.
2/6
She hadn’t guessed wrong. Nicholas still had yet to return.
Three days had passed since he left, and they hadn’t had any contact for three days.
No phone calls and no text messages,
It was before Valentine’s Day when Nancy received his call again.
Nancy saw his name kept on beating on the screen of her phone. She hesitated for a long time, but she still picked it up.
“Hello.”
“Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. Do you want to go out for a while, or do you have anything in mind. that you want to buy?”
Nicholas’ voice came to her ears clearly through her mobile phone, as always, deep and S**y.
It’s like a beautiful piece of music, gently strumming her heartstrings.
It’s been a few days.
She thought she would forget his voice, but she found herself missing it so much.
Nancy gripped her phone, feeling a lump in her chest, unable to speak.
“Nancy, are you there?”
Nicholas asked as he didn’t hear any reply from Nancy.
“I’m here.”
“Do you have anything you’d like? You may
tell me.”
“I would like to go shopping,” said Nancy.
“Okay.”
After hanging up the call, her heart continued to beat rapidly.
She realized that in just three days, she couldn’t forget a person. She could only miss him more.
She felt pathetic.
It had only been three days, and she was already overwhelmed, longing for him.
The next day. Nancy deliberately woke up earlier and applied light makeup.
3/6
She picked a white dress that she liked for herself.
A ridiculous thought suddenly popped into Nancy’s head while looking at the mirror. ‘If he is willing to spend Valentine’s Day with me, does it mean there is still a chance for us to reconcile?”
However, she quickly dismissed that thought..
How could it be?
He loved Madelline so much. Moreover, he had made all the preparations to marry her.
This Valentine’s Day was probably just his way of giving themselves a grand farewell.
But she wanted to keep the appointment.
Even if she had to leave, she wanted to do it gracefully, not in a messy, defeated state.
Two o’clock in the afternoon, the doorbell rang on time.
Nancy opened the door with a smile.
However, when she saw the person outside the door, her expression instantly dimmed, “Why is it you?”
Nancy clenched her fists. She hoped Lynn would tell her, “Mr. Sallow is waiting for you downstairs. He asked me to fetch you.”
However, that didn’t happen.
Lynn gently smiled and explained, “Mr. Sallow said you wanted to go shopping, so he asked me to accompany you.”
So, that day, he specifically called her to ask what she wanted, but he hadn’t come himself and had. sent Lynn Dawn instead.
Nancy forced a bitter smile. She had been too naive.
It’s Valentine’s Day, what a wonderful day.
How could he leave Madelline to accompany her?
Sure enough, she was delusional.
So, this is the task Nicholas gave you today?”
“Yes, Mrs Sallow”
So, you’ll accomparry me wherever I go?”
4/6
“Yes.”
“Alright, then let’s go shopping.”
After speaking, Nancy took the elevator.
She went to the same shopping mall where she encountered Madelline last time.
From the first to the fourth floor, Nancy spent three hours shopping. Whenever she got tired, she took a seat to have a break.
When they reached the fifth floor, Nancy walked in front, and Lynn was behind, carrying many bags. It was simply miserable.
He remembered that Mrs. Sallow had always been very thrifty.
She never bought overly expensive things.
But what happened today?
Lynn felt that she was acting unusually.
“We’ve walked through everywhere. Let’s go back to the first floor,” Nancy said.
“What?” Lynn was astonished.
He felt like he was seeing stars, and his legs were getting weak.
“What’s wrong? You don’t want to? Didn’t you say that this was a task from Nicholas? If you can’t complete it truthfully, I’ll have to report back to him.”
“Don’t, Mrs. Sallow. I promise to complete the task.
As they reached a jewelry store, Nancy suddenly froze.
Just to her surprise, she saw Nicholas and Madelline.
Perhaps no one would expect they would meet each other there.
“Nancy, what a coincidence you are here too. Nicholas said he wanted to give me a gift,” Madelline said, approaching Nancy with a gentle and graceful demeanor.
“Oh really? What kind of gift?”
When Nancy said this, her eyes were looking toward Nicholas.
“Ring”
5/6
The word “ring” was like a glaring knife, instantly piercing Nancy’s chest, causing her heart to feel like bleeding profusely.
‘Nicholas, ruthless and relentless, but you, you’re a heartbreaker!’
He shattered her heart into a million pieces, leaving it fragmented and broken.
A wave of nausea washed over her chest, and her stomach felt like something was violently churning and pulling.
Nancy covered her mouth, unable to bear it any longer, and quickly ran away.
