Chapter 262
“Ouch!”
The one who cried out in pain was Leah, whose wrist had been hit by the coffee cup’s saucer. With a “clang,” both the bag and saucer fell to the ground, and she stepped back, holding her arm.
Everyone looked up in shock, only to see Estelle standing by the railing, staring coldly at Leah.
The sight of Estelle instinctively struck fear in Leah, who immediately huddled behind Nicolas without even daring to cry out in pain.
Estelle walked down from upstairs and looked at Nicolas with an icy gaze. “Leave Norah alone, and get the hell out of here now!”
Nicolas‘ face went pale, and he looked imploringly at Norah. “Norah, you know better than anyone how sincere my feelings are for you, right?” Leah pulled Nicolas‘ arm and tried to drag him away. “Cousin, let’s go!”
Nicolas didn’t want to leave, knowing that if he did, he’d lose Norah for good.
Norah looked at him tearfully. “Fine, I’ll give you one chance. You can stay now, but you must resign tomorrow and never see Leah again.”
Leah immediately protested. “Cousin, think about it! My dad said he’d promote you next month. You could be a vice–president straight out of college! How many of your peers can say that? But if you resign now, you’ll lose everything!”
Nicolas frowned tightly, seemingly hesitating, torn, and with his eyes full of pain.
Leah seized the opportunity to pull him away. “Hurry up and get back to work. Don’t you have to meet with a client this afternoon?”
Nicolas reluctantly followed Leah out, shooting Norah a guilty glance. “Norah, wait for me. I’ll give you a satisfactory explanation!”

Norah threw the bag and necklace at him. “Take your trash and get lost!”
Estelle thought to herself: Nicolas must really like Norah, right? He tried to struggle between love and money, but he loved himself more. The promise of a VP position made him give up on Norah.
Norah locked herself in her room for two days, so Henson secretly called Estelle. “What happened to my sister? My mom and dad are on a business trip, and my grandma is getting anxious. She says if my sister doesn’t open the door, she’ll call my dad and uncle.”
