Chapter 684 What Are You Afraid Of?
- “It’s not proper for you to stay in my place all the time.” They acted like they were on good terms to comfort Karen, but they didn’t have to without Karen’s presence. Besides, Karen didn’t know Jordy was living in Gloria’s house. Jordy ignored her and casually strode to the room where he usually slept. Gloria was rendered speechless. She was irritated. A cheeky man like Jordy refused to leave her house no matter how hard she tried. What could she do? Though irritated, she went back to her bedroom. Silence blanketed the house. The next day, Gloria and Jordy went to their companies respectively and everything was back on track. Gloria, however, could do nothing with Jordy’s cheeky behavior. On the other side. Nydia had gone to the office, but she was in no mood to work. George occupied her mind.
- After George left that day, she thought her life would be back to normal, but it was not to be. Over these days, George had been contacting her, talking about their private affairs, showing his concerns for her and implying that he wanted to be with her. Nydia felt George was a psychopath. She had made it very clear that she didn’t need him to take responsibility, but he just kept dwelling on this. That was not his style at all. She felt it incredible, but she did not overthink it. Now, she just ignored him. Whatever George said was none of her business. But… When she thought her neglect of George would make him give up… “Nydia, someone is outside for you.” Hearing it, Nydia was confused. Who was here for her? Was she that famous now? Did someone want her to take the case? “Where is it? If that guy wanted her to take the case, it should have walked in. Nydia’s coworker cast an unnatural glance at her. “He’s not here to ask you to take a case. He’s outside waiting for you.” Nydia’s coworker knew the guy outside well. He and Nydia looked like a quarrelsome couple, and no one could meddle in their relationship.
- Some of Nydia’s female colleagues had a crush on George. However, they didn’t have a chance to hit on George, since the latter turned a blind eye to them. They could do nothing with it but watched George and Nydia showing affection for each other in public. A hint of confusion flashed across Nydia’s eyes. She then walked out. Her face changed all of a sudden when she saw it was George who had been occupying her mind. Even her eyes became evasive. Without hesitation, she walked back inside. “Nydia.” George called her timely. After a moment of hesitation, Nydia stopped in her tracks. When she wanted to move again, her hand was grabbed by George. Nydia changed color slightly. She struggled and said, “Let go!” George didn’t intend to let go, his eyes fixed on her, “What will you do after I let you go? You avoid me and ignore my messages. You are not like that before. Nydia, what are you afraid of?” Entrapped Nydia’s heart contracted, but she still said stubbornly, “I have nothing to be afraid of, okay?” George looked straight into her eyes and said bluntly, “If so, why do you avoid me and skip my messages?” Nydia frowned slightly and explained, “I didn’t avoid you. I just want to ignore you. Understand?” George let out a snort of laughter. Obviously, he didn’t buy it. He directly dragged Nydia’s arm and walked outside. Nydia’s face changed. “What are you doing? Let go of me! I’m at work!”
