“He’s really trying hard to impress others by pretending to be rich. He’s only driving a car that costs 25,000; how could he afford to treat the whole group of us to all these?”Gina had a gloomy expression as she started to slander Nora and Julian after Nora had left the private room.One boy replied to Gina’s remark nonchalantly, “Do you think Nora would get an average guy with her family background?”Gina clenched her teeth in anger and looked away. After Nora had left the private room, a waiter came over to her and said with a smile, “Excuse me. Are you Miss Nora?”Nora nodded. The waiter then said to her respectfully, “Mr. Julian is already waiting for you. Please come with me.”Nora followed the waiter to another private room. She saw Julian sitting there alone after the door was opened. Julian was dressed formally because of his dinner with Yvonne tonight. He was wearing a pure black suit, a white shirt, and a black tie, and he looked extremely well-dressed. Nora though
At the end of the day, it was just wrong for him to hug another woman when he had a girlfriend, whether it was out of a desire to humiliate others or for some other purpose. She felt the same way too. Julian was helpless, and he finally apologized. “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have hugged another woman, and I shouldn’t have acted ambiguously with another woman.” At the same time, he made her a promise. “I promise that nothing like this will ever happen again during the duration of our relationship.”Julian thought that their relationship would not last long anyway, so there was no harm in him giving her such a guarantee. Anyway, he was already accustomed to saying such sweet nothings.Nora was not the kind of person with an unreasonable and unforgiving character, so she would forgive a person if the person made a mistake and admitted it. She really felt that Julian was wrong. If Julian was not in a relationship with her, he could hug whomever and as many women as he wanted, and she
Julian stood there with his arms crossed in front of his chest as he smirked and asked her, “Are you thinking about pulling your collar down when you go out later?”Nora was dumbfounded. ‘Damn! He’s truly a cunning old fox. He can actually figure out what I’m thinking.’She pursed her lips and turned her head to the side angrily, not bothering to look at his smug, domineering, and rogue expression.Julian warned her in a low voice, “This karaoke bar belongs to my friend. I will talk to the waiters later and ask them to go in from time to time to check if you are dressed neatly.”“You…”Exasperated, Nora glared at him angrily. ‘This man is really too sinister.’Julian walked over and raised his hand to help her adjust her collar again, then he smiled impishly as he whispered in her ear, “Just wait and see how I will deal with you if you’re not dressed neatly!”Nora was really enraged now. ‘How can he act that way? He’s giving me warnings and threats just because of the clothes
Who could he be marrying? Nora? No way!He had never thought about getting married. He had never had any thoughts about holding hands with a woman until the end of his days!‘What the hell was he talking about?!’He continued drinking the wine in his glass, then he looked at the time on his watch. More than half an hour had passed. ‘She should leave now, right?’Letting her stay among those young boys for more than half an hour was already his limit. Although there were many girls in her class, he just ignored those girls’ presence automatically, and all he could think about were those imaginary pictures of her and those boys in her class. He could not stand them at all. Therefore, he called her. Nora had just taken over the microphone and was about to sing the song that she had selected. She answered Julian’s call and asked him if he needed anything. Julian replied over the other end of the line, “Can we go now?”Nora was angry because there were so many people in the private r
However, they were from two completely different worlds, whether it was their temperament and personality, their age gap, or the environment they lived in.Julian was already upset about the gap between Nora and himself, but when Nathan was looking at him in shock at this time, he felt even more upset. He pushed Nathan away, got in the car, and left.Nathan returned to the karaoke bar and sat in the waiting area as he silently digested the shocking news that his boss was dating Nora.He guessed that Nora was probably among the group of students just now, and she happened to see the scene where his boss was hugging Yvonne. Therefore, his boss hurriedly chased after Nora to explain things to her.‘Since when did he start to care so much about a woman’s opinion?’‘According to his style in the past, the woman could choose to deal with it however she wanted if she saw him, and he would simply continue doing his own thing.’Right then, his cell phone rang again, and it was a text mess
Nathan sighed after he looked at Nora, who was focused on her cell phone. He really could not understand her at all.After Nathan had sent Nora home, he called Julian immediately to report that he had completed his mission.Surprisingly, Julian was still awake, and he only hummed a response before he ended the call.Nathan secretly thought to himself, ‘He actually got involved with Ryan Pierce’s sister. I really don’t know what he’s thinking.‘Is he forgoing friendship for the sake of love, or will he give up love in the end for the sake of friendship?’After Nora’s class graduation dinner, it was time for them to get their graduation photos taken the next day, and it would be the day for them to receive their graduation certificate. It was two busy days in a row. Nora’s mind was focused on her graduation ceremony, and the weather was hot, so she was not in the mood to think about anything else, including her boyfriend, Julian. On the day of her graduation when she received he
“You can report to the company tomorrow, then,” Julian replied to her. He felt that he needed to have a good talk with her about how she should treat him as a good girlfriend. She should adore him, care for him, protect him, and treat him as the person she could count on at all times. He should always be the first person that she shared all of her joys and sorrows with.He would definitely call her into his office when she reported to the company tomorrow and teach her a good lesson. Nora became nervous when he asked her to report to work tomorrow. She asked anxiously, “Mr. Julian, does your company have a dress code? Is there anything I should look out for?” It was Nora’s first time entering the workplace. She was extremely nervous even though she was just reporting for work. “There’s no requirement as long as it's formal attire.” After saying that, Julian added, “It’d be best if you wear some dark-colored clothing, nothing too fancy. After all, the finance department is a
“I see.”After interacting with Benjamin for such a short while, Nora felt that she could already tell the brothers apart. They had very different personalities. However, Benjamin then added, “But you have to beware of my occasional pranks. Sometimes, I’d put on my glasses and pretend to be my brother, looking all serious. Most people can’t tell the difference.”Nora was dumbfounded.‘Is he going to prank me like this?’ She was initially a little confident in how to distinguish them, but she was instantly confused again when Benjamin said this. When Benjamin saw her worried expression, he suddenly laughed and said, “Look at how worried you are. I was just teasing you.”Nora said in exasperation, “How can you tease me like this? I’m your new colleague, after all.”However, even though she was angry, she felt that Benjamin was really an easy person to get along with. The two of them joked and laughed until they reached the top floor, but they saw a person standing outside as soo
