Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk Chapter 540: Fighting at School
"Grandma, please help take care of Nora. I have so urgent matters to deal with."
With that, Jasper Sinclair picked up his plain suit jacket from the back of the chair, ready to leave.
Once again, he made a disappointing choice between Nora Northwood and Peach Bell.
"You brat, who allowed you to leave?" Grandma Sinclair said, determined not to let anyone ruin the rare chance she had orchestrated. She got up from her seat, briskly walked over to Jasper, and blocked his exit.
Jasper paused slightly and explained, "Peach got into a fight with soone at school."
"It’s not like the Sinclair Family doesn’t have other people! Leaving at a ti like this, Raina!"
Raina Sinclair chid in at the right mont: "I’ll handle it. You stay here with Grandma and Nora."
That night.
Peach was brought ho from school, a small scar on her face, presumably from soone with long nails.
She lingered around Grandma Sinclair’s room, her gaze occasionally glancing inside, as if waiting for soone.
Finally, after nightfall, the person she was waiting for arrived.
"Sister Nora, what were you talking about with Grandma for so long?"
As the weather got colder, Peach wore a thin sweater, blue denim overalls with one strap hanging down, looking just like a pure young college girl.
Which man wouldn’t be dazzled by that?
However, Nora felt that the innocence in Peach’s eyes had vanished, replaced by other thoughts.
Through her guise, Nora tried to peer into her mind but realized her thoughts were too complicated, unnecessary for soone who was just coming of age. She replied, "Just casual chatter, family matters."
"Are you really going to divorce Brother Jasper?"
"Maybe it’s true."
Next, Peach said sothing that Nora thought utterly shattered her worldview.
"Then can you let have Brother Jasper? I don’t have parents in this world anymore, only him as a family. If you take him away, then no one will love !"
The girl’s pitiful expression fell into Nora’s eyes; she couldn’t believe such words would co out of Peach’s mouth.
Could it be that going to school had changed the girl’s mindset?
She took a deep breath and said, "He never loved you."
"He will love !" The girl insisted, determined to fight to the death.
"That’s between you and him, it has nothing to do with ." Nora shrugged, giving Peach a carefree back view.
She found herself increasingly impatient.
In the past, she might have said more, but now she simply couldn’t be bothered.
When Nora returned to the room, Jasper was in the shower, the sound of water intermittently echoing.
She paced back and forth in the room, pondering how to get through the night.
They can’t possibly share the sa bed?
In the past, she wouldn’t have hesitated, but now, with divorce looming, it was hard to peacefully coexist under the sa roof.
Soon, the sound of water ca to an abrupt stop.
As Jasper erged, he was wrapped in a cashre robe, the collar open, revealing much of his chest and the muscular lines from his chest to his abs, still carrying the scent of shower gel.
Nora’s eyes fell on him, and she unconsciously swallowed.
She shouted inwardly: No playing seductive gas!
