She wouldn't go with him. Would he really get the certificate without her?
Then, Harry chose to change his strategy. "After we're remarried, I promise you can do whatever you want and it will be the same as it now is. I won't meddle in your affairs. Besides, Nicole will stay with you."
The conditions of the agreement were tempting, and Lola was almost convinced.
"It's a trick. I won't remarry you, just forget about it. Harry you can't keep treating me like this!" Immediately after she uttered these words, she stood up from her seat, rushed to the living room, picked up her handbag and then walked outside the villa.
Harry stopped her within several big steps, "Lola!" He had messed up again.
She threw away his hand in disdain and wanted to open the door. But it was still locked. She was so angry that she hit her bag against the lock, and shouted at Harry, "Open the door!"
Once again, Harry held the angry woman in his arms and comforted her. "Lola, you promise me that you will not be in contact with Thomas Herren anymore and I won't go to D City today."
Lola pounded her fists against his chest, and said, "Just let go of me, I don't want to be with you anymore." He could've strangled her to death if he wanted to.
But Harry simply kissed her on her lips and stopped all of her grumbles.
Lola was almost enchanted by Harry's scent.
Seeing her so distressed, he finally took the key, which was sitting the shelf next to the door, and opened it for her.
Lola looked at him doubtful and then looked at the shelf. Was she blind last night? Why didn't she see the key standing right in front of her eyes last evening?
Harry then drove her to LN. He followed as she went inside the coffee shop.
Harry sat opposite to Lola and started to check his business files.
She glanced at the waiters in her shop. Why didn't they throw his files away, just like garbage?
She tied her long hair, went to the bar, made a cup of coffee all by herself, and then placed it in front of him.
"Thanks!" The man then calmly drank his coffee black, without adding any sugar or milk to it.
'Isn't it bitter?' wanted Lola to ask him.
However, he finished the coffee in almost half an hour and didn't say anything the whole time.
Lola was still angry with him, and so she let him drink the bitter coffee as it was. She handed him the phone, and said to him, "I want to talk with Nicole. Dial." It was Saturday, and Nicole didn't need to go to kindergarten.
Harry took the phone and dialed the number. "Father, let Nicole speak on the phone."
Nicole's voice then was quickly heard in the phone's speaker. "Daddy, I miss you so much!"
Harry showed a tender complexion when he heard Nicole's voice, which in turn made Lola jealous.
But it was none of her business who he wanted to be tender with.
"Nicole, daddy is with mommy now. Do you want to talk to her?"
Then he handed the phone to Lola and she hastily snatched it from his hand. She went away from Harry and spoke on the phone outside the shop.
After she talked with Nicole for more than half an hour, Lola came back in the shop feeling in a good mood and placed the phone on the table next to Harry.
"Harry, are you going to stay in A Country all the time?"
Harry moved his eyes from his files up to Lola, and said, "No, I'm going to take you to C Country after I'll get you back again." His answer made Lola blush.
"You'd better go back right now, or both of us will soon seem intolerable to one another."
