Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 181

Yes, Harry was planning to get rid of her and marry Yolanda! How was she supposed to react? She just can't seem to take this all in. She cannot understand. He would certainly choose Yolanda. That cunning serpent!

Lola pushed him away and intended to walk out of the room, only to be caught by his firm grip.

Harry was trying to stop her while she was also trying to run away from him. It was a deadlock.

After a while, Harry let go a bit, careful not to hurt her. Lola took this opportunity and got loose from him. She smiled, "Save your words. Go and marry her! You don't have to tell me. We have been in this scene more than once in our life." Then she walked away without turning back and headed to the elevator.

At the villa of the Li family.

It was that time of the week when all the members of the Li Family would gather and have dinner together. All of them except Joseph are present.

Neither Harold Li nor Angie Gong mentioned the news today. Landon Li also heard about it, so he planned to talk with Lola after dinner. Jordan looked at Lola, who was smiling while wiping the chocolate on Nicole's mouth. The sight of them happy together made him swallow his questions.

The doorbell rang. "Who would come to visit at this time? It's already way past dinner time." Angie curiously looked at the door.

Mrs. Yuan ran to answer the door. "Good evening, sir. May I ask who you are looking for?" The handsome young man before her was such a delightful sight because Mrs. Yuan recognized that it was he who went out with Lola and Nicole yesterday!

"Good evening. Would you please tell them that a man by the name of Harry Si has come to sincerely apologize to them? Thank you." He politely waited at the door while carrying precious gifts in his hand.

After Mrs. Yuan passed on the message, Angie and Harold looked at each other and then turned to Lola, who lowered her head and stopped eating.

Harold sought for Landon's opinion. Landon looked at Lola and when he realized that she was not taking any stand, he immediately made a decision. "We shall not cold-shoulder our guest. Show him in!"

The moment Harry walked in, Lola got Nicole from her chair and both of them walked upstairs.

Seeing Harry, Nicole turned into the joyful child as she always is whenever he is around. "Uncle!", she shouted and tried to wriggle herself away from her mother's grip.

Harry then saw Nicole in Lola's arm at the middle of the stairs. He smiled, "Nicole! How are you?"

Then he looked at the others and respectfully asked, "Could you please give us a moment?"

Landon, Harold and Angie looked at each other in sulky silence, nodded and started to finish their dinner.

Nicole struggled to jump off and Lola had to give in. She put her down and wiped the oil in her lips again. Nicole ran to Harry immediately.

"Uncle! Are you here to play with me?" Nicole gave Harry a big hug when he bent down.

Everyone in the Li Family was speechless. Blood ties did work its magic.

Lola silently walked upstairs. Why not let Nicole spend more time with her father? She gave in. Maybe her father would marry someone else soon and Nicole would never hear from him again.

In the living room.

Mrs. Yuan was clearing away the plates while Jordan left for the study right after having a moment or two with Harry Si.

Landon, Harold and Angie were sitting on the couch opposite to Harry, who still has Nicole in his arms.

"Mrs. Yuan, take Nicole to Lola please!" Landon politely asked. Mrs. Yuan quickly wiped her hands and took Nicole away.

Harry stood and bowed to them in a very polite and respectful manner.

Harold and Angie did not expect this and they felt slightly uneasy, as this powerful young man was so humble to them.

It was a bit too much!

"I came here today to make an apology to you. Though it was not my intention, Lola has suffered humiliation and shame because of me. As much as I want to be with her and Nicole, I can't promise her a future that is safe for all of us, especially her...I'm deeply sorry for all the trouble I caused. Sorry!"

Hearing about this, Lola violently swept away all the folders and papers on the desk. Everything swirled and fell down, creating a loud thump.

Who cared about the position of a provisional CEO?

She came here for one and only purpose -- Harry!

A friend? He threw away everything that they have just for the sake of Yolanda!

This one stings. She could even physically feel the pain of her heart. With her face buried in the desk, she hopelessly cried her heart out.

What should she do? What can she do?

Every single day, she couldn't help but recall how Yolanda murdered her child.

She couldn't allow this to happen! She couldn't bear to see them get married! She couldn't let Harry be with the wrong woman for the rest of his life...Her right hand with her nails painted in scarlet, gripped the pen she was holding.

It was driving her crazy...

"... If we didn't meet that day, would I be less confused right now? If we didn't meet..." The ringtone she recently set rang. She didn't move. Instead, she got the phone and looked at the screen through the transparent desk. It was Zoe's call. Her voice was listless. "Hello."

Zoe called her immediately after seeing the announcement Harry just made. He knew how much Lola loved Harry. That must hurt! So he was not surprised to hear Lola's sorrowful cries from the phone.

"Lola, I just read the news..." Zoe could not say anything more. He didn't know how to make her feel better.

Lola forced a bitter smile. Now the world knew that she was merely a friend, and a subordinate to Harry.

The door opened slowly, but Lola was not aware. She was still bending over the desk. "I've read it too. The past is gone, Zoe. It's all over. I have to start all over again."
