Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106 Don’t Care For It

“By the way, Nicole, there are some rumors going around within the company, but don’t take it to heart,” he said, casting her an earnest look.

A bitter smile spread across Nicole’s face, and she parted her lips as she said, “Okay. Thanks.”

Looking at Nicole, Henry wanted to draw the distance closer between them, so he started a conversation about their times in school.

“These five years flew by so quickly. Thinking back, you were the school belle back then, and there were countless guys chasing after you,” he muttered with a reminiscent look on his face.

Gradually, Nicole slipped into her memories with his words. It was true; although she wasn’t from a rich family, she had good looks, awesome physique, and elegant temperament. While it was tough on her mother raising Nicole by herself, she had never mistreated Nicole in any aspects of her daily necessities.

Back then, she always enjoyed reading alone in the library. One day, someone took a picture of her without her knowledge and uploaded it on the school’s forum, turning her into the school belle overnight.

Despite the amount of guys courting her, she developed a dislike for men with smooth tongues due to her disappointment in her father.

Therefore, even though Henry wasn’t a good-looking guy and came from a regular family, she still picked him in the end.

The reason was simply because he was very caring and considerate; at least that was how he was in school back then.

With a soft smile, Nicole raised her voice and said in a low voice, “Yeah, the relationships we had when we were in school were pure and not mixed with anything else.”

Henry lowered his head and sighed softly. “Back then, I would always go to the library in hopes of bumping into you. Never did I imagine that you’d agree to date me. It was really like a dream.” Fixing his eyes on her, he gulped and continued, “I thought that we’d always be together, but who would have thought that there would be such a change.”

The smile on Nicole’s face seemed a little helpless, and she dodged the topic. “Give it a try. The food here is not bad.”
