Chapter 1181
"That means we only have a few days left, right?" Harvey took his phone out and flipped through the calendar app.
"I think so."
"I'm not sure what Nicole is doing. There has been no news from her since the day she left. It's quite disturbing." Harvey muttered to himself.
Kelly registered the look of worry on his face and comforted him, Miss Riddle left with Mr. Johnston. I don't think anything will happen to her. She just sent me a message yesterday."
"She sent you a message?" Harvey stared at Kelly in shock.
Stunned by Harvey’s unusually strong reaction, she replied, "Yeah, why?"
It was only then did Harvey realize that he was getting too worked up.
Thus, he quickly regained his composure and smiled at Kelly before saying, "Nothing. What did she tell you in the message?"
"She informed me that she won't be coming back here for the next few days. Mr. Johnston has arranged a room for her somewhere else and it's a lot more convenient there. She asked me not to worry about her."
"She's not coming back anymore? Where is the room that Mr. Johnston had booked for her?" Harvey asked as he frowned.
"She did not mention," Kelly replied.
"Jared Johnston. Why is he always ruining my plans?" Harvey muttered.
"Mr. Harvey, are you okay?" Kelly looked at him her brows raised.
"I'm fine. I'll leave now." Harvey said, having no reason to stay there anymore, as he had already gotten the information he wanted.
"Mr. Harvey, are you free later?" Kelly looked at him shyly.
"Why?"
"We did not get to watch the movie the other day, right? I found out that they're still screening that same title."
"Oh, is there anything else you want to tell me?" Harvey looked at her.
"No, nothing else." Seeing that Harvey was not interested in watching the movie again, Kelly did not ask further.
Harvey turned around and left her room with a crestfallen look on his face.
Kelly was a little sad too. Initially, she thought that she would have the chance to catch a movie with Harvey alone. However, she had not expected him to reject her.
"Forget it. I'll just finish what I have to do." Kelly switched her computer on and started working.
After Harvey had returned to his room, his mind was filled with nothing but thoughts and mental images of Nicole. 'She messaged Kelly and never bothered to tell me anything. That's a little too much!'
He picked his phone up and dialed Nicole's number. Nicole was focusing on her work, and when she heard her phone ringing, she rolled her eyes in annoyance. 'The busier I am, the more calls I'm getting from him. Why on earth is Jared doing all this?'
With a raised tone of voice, Nicole answered the call, and before the person from the other end could speak, Nicole spat out without hesitation,' Why are you calling me again? Didn't I tell you that I'm working? Do you want me to complete my work early or not?"
Harvey was caught off guard as he received that telling off. He gulped and asked cautiously, "Who annoyed you for you to be this pissed off?"
Realizing that the voice from the other side of the phone was not Jared, Nicole felt embarrassed at once. "I'm sorry, I thought...Who are you?"
