The hand was stopped before it slapped on Kingsley. The man mercilessly pinched her wrist, “Nora, do you think that I have a good temper?”
He smiled but looked at her without any trace of smile in eyes, as cold as the freezing ice, which sent shivers down the spine.
Nora struggled with her wrist but in vain. Then she quietly looked at Kingsley, and suddenly said, “Since you have so many women out there, you don’t need to come to me!”
She wasn’t that cheap, and since he didn’t like her, there was no need to get too close.
“Then why did I marry you?” Kingsley sneered, “Are you the Fairy? I have spent so much money on you and just to worship as if you were a bodhisattva?”
Kingsley’s words were like a poisoned arrow, poking at Nora’s heart.
Suddenly unable to rebuttal, she closed her eyes and turned her head aside.
Kingsley clearly felt her resistance. As the resistance of a woman to the man usually meant dislike, his eyes were mixed with complex emotions.
For a few seconds he stared at her face, which was exquisite and perfectly proportioned, but somehow managed to annoy him.
Nora stunned and bit her lips, saying, “Then, please go to the bedroom, not here.”
As her weakness was seized, she had no choice but to give in while Kingsley began to feel boring. He got up and went upstairs without saying anything.
Hearing the man’s footsteps gradually away, she relaxed her stiff body. She sat up straight and shook her head with a wry smile. The man’s character was too changeable. She wondered why he was always so easy to get angry.
When Nora came back to the company second day, the department was filled with a sigh of sorrow as their tender was directly passed even without sent to senior leaders of Rivertown Group.
Nora knew that they had paid mountainous efforts to this tender. Shawn had been working overtime for a week, but only to receive such an unexpected result.
No one knew what had gone wrong, or if the leaders had been offended. Their tender was excluded out without any explanations.
At the meeting, everyone was in a bad mood, and Nora also felt not good as she thought that the failure must have something to do with her.
Kingsley was such a man that he was so narrow-minded and unreasonable.
When the meeting was over, Shawn came to talk with her, “Nora, I didn’t do a good job, so I maybe get fired.”
Nora’s pupil instantaneously contradicted, “Shawn!”
“This tender is important not only to the company but also to me. I have been staying up to work on it for almost a week. But it really surprised me to receive such a result. The tender should be excluded without any explanations!”
There were three standards, but they even didn’t touch the minimum.
Nora felt somewhat guilt. She not only had seen their design plan, but also participated in the modification. And though Destiny Architectural Design Company had been unknown before, the progress of these years were witnessed by all, but only to be denied in this way.
“Sorry Shawn.”
She really didn’t know what to say.
“It’s all right, it’s none of your business!” Shawn was a gentle man, comforting Nora kindly.
Her heart was like burning in a pot of oil, hot and painful. After a restless afternoon, she finally got off work.
At night, when Rachel was at home, Nora asked incidentally, “Will Mr. Baxter come home tonight?”
“Sir did not say, madam, you will have to ask him yourself.”
Nora held the mobile phone, wanting to call Kingsley, but then she thought, if she were to call him, wasn’t she had written her thoughts on face?
After a while, Rachel put on an apron and came into the kitchen, saying, “Sir just says that he’ll be back for dinner tonight!”
The expression on Nora’s face suddenly froze. She pulled up her hair and said, “Rachel, let me help you!”
Anyway, she also had no matter to be busy with, perhaps she could please Kingsley.
As Rachel couldn’t dissuade her, she just let Nora come into the kitchen. Nora made a few dishes, then back upstairs to take a bath, when was about eight o ‘clock, but Kingsley still had not come back.
Her stomach was growling, but as Kingsley did not come back, she dared not have the meal.
It was at 9 PM that Kingsley finally came back.
The moment he came back, Rachel immediately approached and said, “Welcome, Sir. The meal is still hot! Madame did it all herself.”
No sooner than Kingsley glanced at her had Rachel understood him, “Madam is upstairs. I’ll ask her to come down.”
When Nora went downstairs, Kingsley had been sitting at the table. She wore home pajamas, sitting down opposite Kingsley.
Just about to talk, the man’s voice rang out: “Have a meal!”
Nora then just ate quietly and incidentally pointed to the dish of shrimp with celery: “You can try this, it is delicious.”
Kingsley picked up by chopsticks, “You cooked it all?”
“Yeah.”
Then Kingsley didn’t say anymore and ate his dinner in silence.
Nora raised her face to look at him, pursed her lips. No sooner than she uttered a syllable did the man’s eyes sweep over coldly, “Let’s finish the meal first.”
All right, all right!
But after dinner, Kingsley did not give her a chance and he just went upstairs directly.
Rachel also felt that Kingsley was in a bad mood. She came over and said, “Madam, Sir seems to be in a bad mood.”
Nora curled up her mouth, was there any time when he was in good mood?
“I told him that the whole meal was cooked by you, Madam. Although sir didn’t say anything, I could tell he was pleased.”
Rachel also worried for the couple’s harmonious life.
Nora wandered downstairs for a long time. Finally, she made up her minds to go upstairs to talk with him.
Otherwise all the efforts of the design department would be in vain, at least he shall give an explanation. After all, it would be too much to cancel the qualification.
She stood at the door of side bedroom and knocked. On the third ring, the man’s cold voice arose, “Come in!”
Nora pushed the door in, with the face immediately blushing. Kingsley was about to take a bath, so the clothes of the upper body had taken off, showing the smooth lines and clear abdominal muscles. More importantly, he was undoing the buttons of the belt.
“I am going take a bath, want to join?”
He pulled the belt and the sound of metal colliding with the ground was clear.
Nora accidentally glanced at a private place.
Very…… Spectacular!
“No… Thanks.” Nora covered her eyes with a hot red face. She quickly turned around, back to Kingsley.
The man sneered and went into the bathroom.
Nora sat down on the sofa. Anyway, she had to talked about it with him, otherwise it was unknown how long to be dragged.
Upon Kingsley’s sitting down, the mobile phone put on the table rang up. Nora did not take. The phone rang again after stopped, rang up again.
She couldn’t get up, so just looked at the caller ID——
Rosaline!
