Chapter 207 Expectation
It was galling to sense the aloofness and hostility in Henry’s warning. Nova felt a pricking pain in her heart, but in the next moment, she pulled herself together. “How could you have the nerve to say that to me? You know it was grandma’s trick to set me up you and her trip to Sulamani Abbey put her off bringing us together, you don’t have to worry about that any longer now. As for me, I will never get my claws into you.”
Henry skipped a beat when he came to think of Mabel’s attitude now.
“You don’t have to be afraid that I might do harm to grandma, I won’t harm my beloved, you know
I won’t go back to my word. As regards the King’s Mansion, I will never want in there unless grandma wants me.”
Henry was still holding Nova’s arm, and the other hand of him had clenched into a fist hard. Nova hit a nerve in him with her outright promise. “It had better be!” saying this, he shrugged her
hand away angrily.
With her hand free, Nova got in her car straightway. It was better to save her breath.
Buckling her belt, unlocking her car, letting go of the hand brake, and shifting the gear, Nova finished all these operations smoothly in one go and then sped away under Henry’s gaze.
Henry, standing where he was, was burning with anger. He took his eyes from the fading car till Evan came for him, and he closed his eyes then as if he was sorting himself out.
“Mr. King, it’s all done and we can leave now.” Sensing nothing amiss, Evan reported to him as
usual.
Henry just nodded lightly and led the way back.
How time flies!
Nova was swamped by calls for Nicola these days, she had to hang up for she had agreed to fight for Rory in the race.
She couldn’t break her faith in Rory, moreover, Rory was the reason why she resumed racing car and participated in the game.
Her dad used to be a slave in car racing and his excellent performance in a car race aroused her interest in racing cars and prompt her to be a top–ranking driver who won the championship for several years in a row. After she later relinquished her career as a racing driver for marriage, her dad passed out.
The Racing car would remind her of her father, so she just stayed her hand off it.
She would quit it forever but for Zona.
Today is the big day.
Nova disguised herself in case people figured out that she was Poll, Nova at the same time. She was on the radar screen of media since she had married Henry and her role as lawyer Polly was made public not long ago, this time she wanted to conceal her other role as Nicola from the
public.
Rory and some of the board members of the Jackson Group had gotten there already.
Chapter 20/ Expectation
Jarron had shown in the opening ceremony as expected for he had a great expectation of his
son Rory and Rory’s words kept him in suspense,
He was desperate to see who was his secret trump.
Nova also saw Zona and Viola, they were standing with Rory chatting. What surprised her indeed
was Rory’s father, he showed no sign of reluctance when he found that Zona and Viola were Rory’s friends. He seemed to mind little about that. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
They were all waiting and talking in huddles.
Suddenly, Zona’s face lit up with smile when she recognized that the figure coming to her was
Nova. “Here, here! Sis!” She waved her hand dramatically at Nova.
