One More Night

When Stephanie saw the news, her whole heart seemed to be rolling in boiling water.

“F*ck Pearly Shin! It took ten years to pursue Kevin, and I didn’t succeed. But Pearly Shin succeeded first?”

Stephanie walked back and forth anxiously in the office, and all the original meetings were canceled.

Finally, she picked up the phone and called Kevin. She called his private phone, so Kevin quickly answered the call.

As soon as the phone was connected, Stephanie turned all her elegance and reserved into nothing.

She couldn’t help but ask Kevin, “Are you getting engaged? Is that true?”

“The false thing can’t be the truth. The truth can’t be false.” Kevin replied ambiguously. “It’s none of your business. You’d better stay out of it.”

“Is that true? Are you really going to be engaged to Pearly?”

“That’s my business.”

“How could it be your own business? You know how many years I’ve been in love with you!” At this moment, Stephanie couldn’t care so much and tried her best to speak out her feelings.

But Kevin was not moved. “There are a lot of women who love me.”

Stephanie’s face turned pale. “So, is what they said true? Have you really given your heart to a married woman?”

Stephanie spoke without thinking. As soon as she said that, she regretted it.

“I’m sorry, Kevin, I…”

But before she finished speaking, Kevin cut off the phone. He didn’t want to let anyone else criticize his personal affairs, let alone a person who had nothing to do with him.

David had been watching the whole process, and he didn’t know what Stephanie had said. But from Kevin’s face, he knew that Stephanie had been completely out of the game. Oh, no, it should be that she has never been in the game.

What a pity for such a beauty.

Stephanie grabbed her mobile phone and listened to the beeping sound coming from the other side. After all, her eyes were red and she shed tears.

The Richard family also saw the news of the engagement.

Barry was shocked, but he was the only one in the Richard family to know the relationship between Nicole and Kevin. Originally, he was afraid. Although this relationship was not known by outsiders, he was secretly glad that he could have a relationship with the George Family. But now, Kevin is getting engaged? Was there any problem with Kevin and Nicole?

But when he called Nicole last time, she didn’t say anything. So, he called Nicole to know about the news.

“Nicole, what happened between you and Mr. George?” Barry did not talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

Nicole pretended to be dumb. “It’s nothing.”

“Then why is Mr. George getting engaged to someone else?”

“Oh, this is his business. What does it have to do with me? Dad, why don’t you call him yourself if you want to know?”

“You…” Barry was so angry and couldn’t speak for a while, “I’m doing this for your own good.”

Nicole knew very well whether Barry was for her good or not. The reason why he suddenly cared about her so much was just for Kevin.

It was really amazing that the Richard family could have some relationship with the George family. If Nicole divorced Kevin, Barry might suffer a lot. But the initiative of this matter was not in her hands at all, so she said, “Dad, I really don’t know much about this matter. At least he didn’t say she would divorce me.”

Barry frowned and said, “Okay, I’m hoping that he will stay with you.”

Nicole smiled and said, “Is there anything else? Dad, I’ll hang up if you don’t.”

After the call with Barry, the corners of Nicole’s smiling eyes suddenly narrowed. Even if nobody knew Nicole was the wife of Kevin, Kevin’s sudden outburst of such explosive news was really a blow to her!

However, from morning to now, Paul had been dealing with phone calls from all aspects and handling all kinds of connections. Kevin had nothing to do this morning.

There was no response from Nicole. When a normal woman sees her husband getting engaged, she should at least ask her husband.

Nicole was very calm.

“Hey, why don’t I go to Nicole’s university to take a look for you?” David stood up and smiled mysteriously. “I also have a thing and will go to the university.”

Kevin glanced at the middle of David’s crotch and said, “Take care of yourself.”

Kevin’s eyes were full of contempt for David’s dignity. David glared at Kevin while gnashing his teeth. “You’d better not regret it.”

James naturally also saw the news that Kevin was going to get engaged, and he couldn’t help but feel surprised.

It was too sudden. All the people didn’t prepare for it at all.

James was also a little worried about Stephanie. He was her younger brother, and he knew Stephanie very well. Stephanie was strong, stubborn, and swore not to give up until she reached her goal.

How could she just stand by and watch Kevin get engaged without doing anything?

He called her, but no one answered. He wanted to find her in the place where she lived, but he didn’t expect that his phone was connected.

“Sister,” James said.

Stephanie’s voice was calm, and nothing unusual could be heard. “Well, I know what you want to say, but I’m fine now. Don’t worry.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

Hearing her calm voice, James finally felt a little relieved. He wanted to persuade her, but he knew that she would not listen to him because she was stubborn, so he could only explain, “Call me if you need anything.”

“I know. I’m hanging up.”

He took the book and returned it to the library.

It just happened to be the face to face meeting of Nicole. James raised his eyebrows, and Nicole looked calm. He had thought that Nicole had a relationship with Kevin, but now it seemed that he was over worried.

He smiled and said hello to Nicole. Nicole was stunned and also smiled. “Mr. David, what a coincidence.”

“Well, are you leaving?”

“Yes, then you returned the book.”

Lily felt like she was the third wheel. She curled her lip and saw a cool luxury car stop at the door of the library. She suddenly felt nervous and said to Nicole, “Nicole, I have a stomachache. I need to go to the bathroom first.”

“Okay.”

After Lily left, James invited Nicole, “Do you have time tonight? I’ll invite you to watch a movie.”

Nicole thought about how to refuse him since his invitation was so direct.

However, when she turned her head and saw a slim man coming from the long stairs outside, she turned her head and agreed, “Okay, what time is it?”

“It’s about 7:30 p. m. If you treat me to dinner, we can go now.”

“That’s fine.”

David stood at the door of the library and saw Nicole and James talking and laughing. He was stunned and immediately ran to the dark place. He took out the phone and took photos, and then he smiled and showed up. “What are you talking about? You look so happy.”

Nicole immediately understood why Lily was leaving and she was about to leave, so she smiled calmly and said, “Nothing, I’m sorry. Let’s go to have dinner first.”

Nicole’s attitude was really cold. David touched his nose and blocked her way. “Hey, I’ve helped you several times at least. You treated me this way? Little…” The word “sister in law” rolled in David’s throat.

Nicole immediately glared at him. David smiled with ease, but his eyes were full of threats. “It’s okay if you want me to shut up. I’m here to find Lily. Where is she?”

“She’s in the library. You can find her by yourself.”

Looking at her walking away with James, David immediately sent the photo he just took to Kevin. Well, he found a good angle. In that photo, Nicole looked sweet and shy. David smiled with satisfaction and then went to the library to settle scores with Lily!

However, Lily had already slipped through the door on the other side.

“Do you know David?” James asked Nicole surprisingly.

Fortunately, Nicole was well prepared. “When we went to his bar last time, Lily was drunk and David helped us out.”

“You’re still going to his bar?” James frowned his eyebrows, and Nicole quietly stuck out her tongue.

“No, I’ve only gone once. Let’s go and take a look. Let’s go. I’ll invite you to the cafeteria for dinner.” Nicole walked in front and avoided his questioning.

After dinner, James took Nicole to the cinema.

The news of Kevin’s engagement had been spread for a day. Nicole was in low spirits. Looking at the huge LED advertising screen outside, she restrained all her expressions and looked depressed.

They arrived relatively early, and there were still 20 minutes before the movie started.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

The place where the staff sold popcorn was line-up, and James walked over to line up consciously.

Nicole looked at him in surprise. “Teacher James, what are you doing?”

“Buy popcorn. Aren’t girls all fond of eating popcorn while watching movies?”

“No need. I had a full dinner. I don’t want to eat popcorn at all.”

Hearing this, James said, “Then I’ll buy two cups of coffee.”

“Okay.”

Ten minutes in advance to check the tickets. James chose a funny suspense movie that had just been released to the public a few days ago. The box office and reviews were both good, and it seemed that it was not bad.

What’s more, he bought the last row of couple seats. To be honest, Nicole felt a little weird, but she didn’t say anything.

However, for some reason, no one came in until the beginning of the movie.

Nicole felt strange. When the time came, all the lights and screens lit up at once. A staff member went to the stage and said to them, “Sorry, this round has been cancelled. Can you watch the next one?”
