Chapter 55 When Did You Return



Chapter 55 When Did You Return

His tone was as sincere as it could get. Nova could only leave him with a contempt of supercilious look.

The man rubbed his nose and continued to catch up.

“Nova, eat something. You'll feel hungry if you don't eat. My heart would ache.”

Nova turned around and snatched the bag from his hand and said in a stern voice.

“You can go now.”

The man smirked and said, “Nova, I'm going to pick up Elliot in a while, you should go with me.”

Nova paused and asked, “When?”.

Happiness could be seen from his eyes as he quickly replied, “Eleven o'clock in the afternoon.”

Nova didn't speak, she turned and whispered a few words to the security guard and returned to the office.

The man was about to catch up with her when he saw her leave. Suddenly, there was an extra arm in front of him. The man looked down and saw that it was that dark-skinned security guard, he smirked and said, “Didn't you see our relationship? Go away!”

With a fixed gaze, the security guard said, “Manager Graham has instructed for you to leave as soon as possible. She doesn't buy insurance.”

The man's face turned gloomy, ‘Nice going Nova!’

The man drove from the Graham to H Group. He excluded a strong aura of trouble. Everyone in the company knew their boss's temper and they immediately took a detour. However, how could it be easy

to avoid the man who was angry with his own woman? He started looking around for faults.

“How was this report done? I didn't pay you a high compensation for you as a high-achieving student from X University for nothing. Redo it!”

The chief financial officer came out of the office with a cold sweat. Before he could ask Pola from the public relations department, he was called into the office by the president.

“With such a monthly high salary, you don't even maintain yourself, your face is as dull as a chef. Do you think men can bear the sight of it? It would be good if they didn't puke.”

In a short while, employees saw the beautiful public relations woman ran out of the president's office crying.

Not too long after, the director of the cleaning department was called in.

The man frowned and pointed at the cactus on the table.

“How have you been doing your work? Don't you know how to water it? Look at how dry the plant is. Did you steal the company's water to raise a mistress?”

The entire office was complaining in less than a morning. The man leaned comfortably on the back of the chair and turned around. As the saying goes, if one member suffers, all suffer together.

“Boss…”

Eric went into the room holding documents and saw his boss staring at him with a sullen expression and said, “Don't you know how to knock on the door? So rude!”

Eric went into the room holding documents and saw his boss staring at him with a sullen expression and said, “Don't you know how to knock on the door? So rude!”

Eric was taken aback for a moment. The boss was a soldier. Therefore, he couldn't be fussed with the formalities and hated for them to knock on his door. It seemed that something is wrong today. He heard quite many people discussing when he walked past earlier, it seems that their point of discussion was this big boss.

Eric had good social-emotional skills, so he immediately responded when he heard the statement.

“I'm sorry boss, I would pay attention next time,” he quickly responded before his boss changed his facial expression.

“Boss didn't you always want to know what happened to Miss Graham from childhood to adulthood, I have already sorted it out for you.”

The man moved, snorted, and said, “Bring it over.”

Eric immediately handed over the document, Jason frowned as he flipped through it, and Eric explained next to him.

“The Graham family is a real estate developer. Ms. Graham's mother is Toby's legal wife. She was also a descendent of a prestigious family in Y City. However, after marrying Toby and ignoring her family's objections, she broke off all relations with the the Green family a long time ago. Years ago, the the Green family had moved abroad with their entire family and had no contact with the Graham family for a long time.”

“When did her mother pass away?”

“When Ms. Graham was twelve years old, her mother was sent to the X nursing home to treat her depression. One year later, instead of recovering, she got worse. In the end, she wounded the medical staff with a knife. She stole a car when she escaped from X nursing home and sped all the way. She

ultimately encountered a mishap when she was at Tian Haiwan where she and the car all fell into the waters.”

He paused slightly and before he continued.

“The strange thing was that after the police arrived, they scooped up the car where it crashed but did not find her mother. After searching for a whole month, the police declared for her to be a missing person. The body would have been soaked for thirty days, even if it was found it would have been badly decomposed.”

The man's brows tightened, and he stared at the page of the information and asked.

“What is this?”

Eric leaned over to look. It was an old photo. It was not very clear, but the man could tell it was Toby when he was young, and the woman he held hands with and the child she is holding was obviously the duo of Lucie and Ella.

“This was taken by Ms. Graham's mother by a private investigator back then. The photo was taken fifteen years ago. At that time, Ms. Graham should have been ten years old.”

Nova and Ella were less than five years apart, and Eric's meaning was self-evident.

Jason had originally disliked Toby's biased paternal love. However, the information discovered had made him even more look down on this person.

“When Ms. Graham was fourteen years old, Toby and Lucie had a low-key wedding. Since then, Ms. Graham had become accustomed to living in school. At the age of seventeen, she fell in love for the first time. The person was your comrade-in-arm, Brandon.”

He glanced at the man's overcast face and felt skeptical as he continued.

“The story was very old-fashioned. Mr. Moore's damsel in distress won her heart. The two began to fell in love. The first time they held hands was DD MM YYYY, the first kiss was X, the first...”

“Shut up!”

The man shouted with an overcast face.

“I don't want to hear about this!”

Eric calmly pushed up his glasses and said slowly.

“Ms. Graham didn't have a second boyfriend apart from Brandon.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The man felt a little better upon hearing it. He took the information and flipped it back and forth before he opened the drawer to put it in.

The desk phone just so happened to have rung, and the man frowned as he impatiently grabbed it.

“What is it?”

“President, a lady is looking for you at the front desk and she said that she knows you.”

“What lady, I don't know her!”

The man yelled and wanted to hang up, the other person’s voice changed to a gentle female voice.

“Jason, it's me.”

The man paused then looked up at Eric, who sensibly left the room.

The man stood up and walked to the window as he looked down to the pavement where the cars moving before he asked.

“When did you return?”

“Yesterday,” the woman's voice was like a stream of water that comfortably flew slowly into the hearts of people.
