Chapter 109 – She was soaked through
Victoria had waited here all night, not expecting to receive such a questioning as soon as they met.
Her lips were biting so hard that her heart was aching a little, and she was just about to retort when she heard Daniel coughing violently.
Victoria hurriedly took a tissue aside, while also seeing the sporadic blood stains on the tissue.
She hurriedly crumpled the tissue into a ball before Daniel noticed.
“Tori, I know you don’t like Nick, When you were in college, it seemed like you had a boyfriend, right?”
Victoria didn’t return, all she could think about was the blood on that tissue.
She told the doctor to keep it from Daniel, so he still didn’t know and kept thinking he’d be back at work soon.
Daniel said regretfully before waiting for her answer.
“It’s me who is too greedy, but the company is just like you, it’s me who watched it grow up, and by now it’s already hard to let go of it, I’ll give you ten percent of the shares some other time, so you and auntie can stop quibbling around because of this.”
“Dad.”
“At that time, I let you marry Nick because Edward likes you a lot and he won’t let you suffer. In the future, even if I can’t hold out and let the company collapse, you’ll at least have Andrews Enterprise as a backer.”
Victoria’s nose is sore.
“Tori, learn to get along with Nick, and as for that boyfriend of yours from college, no one knows who he is, and he won’t reveal it to you, so how can he possibly be genuinely into you.”
Victoria, feeling nothing but exhaustion, nodded her head and poured Daniel a glass of warm water.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“Dad, take your pills before you read the files.”
Daniel’s face was pale and waved his hand, “I know my body, I’m bored here anyway, it’s okay to look at it, there’s a document left at home, can you bring it over for me?”
It’s ten o’clock at night.
“Dad, you should probably just rest.”
“I’ll read that file for a meeting and then take a break, the project is blocked and I’ll have to find another company to re-establish the partnership.”
Victoria had to agree, but the car was halfway down the road, and because of the rain, the tires got stuck in the manhole cover, causing all the cars behind her to get stuck in her car, with drivers coming up one by one to ask questions and complain.
Victoria felt embarrassed, but had no choice but to get out of the car and let the traffic police tow the car away because of a flat tire.
But without an umbrella, she was drenched in no time.
She was thinking of taking a cab when she realized she had left her bag and cell phone in the car.
Victoria was instantly somewhat helpless, while a wave of powerlessness surged through her body.
Her eyes reddened a little because of the man Daniel had mentioned tonight, and she planned to walk home in the rain.
And not far away, Nick’s car moved slowly along the traffic, his pen still in his hand. Looking out at the woman standing on the curb, his brow furrowed lightly.
Raindrops condensed on the car window like a layer of crushed diamonds, reflecting the neon lights outside and slowly lighting up her face. A car stopped in front of her.
The car window fell and she saw the man’s cold face.
“Mr. Andrews!”
She called a bit unexpectedly, not holding back a sneeze because she was soaking wet.
