Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1749
An exasperated look spread across Nancy’s face. “You’re so petty.”
Jory laughed. “What are you saying? I don’t hate you now…” Perhaps, I hated you before I formally got to know you, but I don’t hate you now…
Gazing at Nancy’s exasperated look, he continued, “Conversely, I’m extremely grateful for your rejection back then. If you didn’t reject me, I might still be nothing but a spoilt playboy now.”
“If I didn’t reject the marriage…” repeated Nancy under her breath, “We’ll be…” Realizing that something seemed wrong mid-sentence, she quickly fell silent.
Jory had an urge to tease her. Smiling flippantly, he probed, “What will we be?”
Nancy shoved his shoulders and hurried back to her car, while Jory remained standing outside. Looking at her furious look, he felt intrigued.
“My office is nearby. Would you like to drop by?”
When Nancy started the car engine, Jory raised his volume. “I even have some great beverages to offer you! It’ll be a pity for you to miss them.”
Nancy burst out laughing when she heard that. “I don’t know where your office is. Why don’t you lead the way?”
Just like that, the two cars drove out of the narrow road.
Meanwhile, at Norton Corporation, Caspian was busy with a huge pile of documents.
“Come in!” he yelled, not even raising his head or bothering to find out who was knocking on the door. He continued immersing himself in his work.
