Chapter 170 She Was The Only One Missing Him.

“It’s actually nothing. Just a few days ago, I was having coffee at the hospital’s cafeteria, and Ihappened to run into Mr. Jadin and his mother. His mother was urging him to replace a girlfriend,” Nancysaid calmly.

On the other hand, Toni had a completely different reaction. After hearing her words, she wasbewildered. “Oh my gosh, Nancy. Do you not realize how lucky you are? You’re fortunate.”

Nancy didn’t seem to think much of it. “How so?”

“Just think about it. We’ve only been at the hospital for a few days, and many people haven’t seen himyet. However, you’ve already met him twice, both in private settings. Having dinner is one thing sinceeveryone who ate at the hospital saw him. However, seeing him while having a coffee after work?That’s just…”

Before she could finish her words, Nancy seemed to know what Toni would say next and quicklycovered her mouth. “Save the rest for yourself.”

Toni blinked hard. When Nancy let go of her, she couldn’t help but blurt out, “If this isn’t fate, I don’tknow what is.”

“You’re not just lucky; you’re incredibly lucky!” While speaking, Toni cupped her own face and put on adreamy expression. “I wish I could have such a fateful connection with my true love someday!”

Nancy tugged at her and said, “Alright. Stop daydreaming now. When it comes to love, it will naturallyhappen when the time is right, and you won’t be able to stop it. Enjoy your single life now; falling in lovedoesn’t always guarantee happiness.”

Hearing her words, Toni looked at Nancy and asked, “Has love hurt you before, Nancy?”

“Why do you ask?”

“It’s just the way you speak of it. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot.”

Nancy lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Not only love but also my marriage, she thought. At this point, she didn’t have any courage left. She feltlike a turtle hiding within its shell, refusing to step out and see the world.

In the meantime, the private room’s atmosphere had become lively. Her colleagues were either.singing, playing dice, or chatting. In short, it was a lively scene. Nancy and Toni joined in and playeddice with their colleagues.

At the same time, some colleagues were gossiping among themselves.

“I heard that it wasn’t a coincidence for Mr. Jadin to invite new employees to dinner. It was because oneof the new employees from that group was his girlfriend”

“What Didn’t Ms. Jenkins just say that he is single and has no girlfriend?”

The girl who had just shared this news explamed. I heard Mr Jadin’s girlfriend insisted on studying

abroad. Mr. Jadin was so upset about it that they broke up. Since then, he has never been in arelationship with another woman.”

Toni couldn’t help but shake her head and sighed. “What a pity. Not only is he handsome, but he’s alsoloyal. Good-looking men are either taken or pursued by beautiful women. It has nothing to do with us.”

Nancy smiled and reached over to pinch her cheek. “Why look elsewhere when I’ve got a beauty right

next to me?”

“Oh, Nancy. You always know how to make me happy.”

After playing dice for a while, the atmosphere became stifling. Hence, Nancy decided to step outsidefor some fresh air. However, just as she left the room, she froze.

In the long corridor, she saw a familiar face walking toward her.

At that moment, Nancy was utterly shocked. She had never expected to run into Nicholas during this.dinner gathering. Ever since he left angrily the last time, they haven’t contacted each other, let alone.had a conversation. Now that they bumped into each other, she was unsure whether to speak to him or

not.

The corridor was quiet. Even though only a few days had passed, it felt like ages since they last met. Itseemed as if they had crossed mountains and seas before being able to gaze at each other. Theystood not far from each other, but neither wanted to make the first move.

In reality, the distance between them wasn’t far at all. Even their rooms were diagonally across fromeach other. At this point, taking a step forward would bring them close to each other. However, neitherof them moved.

In the end, it was Nancy who gave in. She loosened her fists and realized her palm was sweaty. Justas she lifted her foot and was about to step forward to call out to him, the door by his side opened.abruptly.

In the next second, two beautiful women approached Nicholas and linked their arms with him. Theirsmiles were dazzling.

Nancy froze in place and immediately withdrew her foot. At the same time, her lips quivered a fewtimes before she closed them tightly.

At that moment, she was grateful that the corridor’s lighting was dim, so Nicholas didn’t notice heractions. Otherwise, she was sure that he would mock her.

I sure as hell don’t have any dignity. Nancy smiled bitterly.

It turned out that she had been overthinking Just moments ago, she thought about explaining toNicholas, telling him that Christian and she were just friends, but then the girls walked out. It seemedas it she was the only one who cared and couldn’t forget about this matter She guessed Nicholas hadJong forgotten it, and only she was still keeping him in her heart. Thinking about it, she felt that it waslaughable

Even with the don lighting Nancy couldn’t deny that those women were beautitul They were tall andhad dender legs The most important thing was their great figures and tan skin She remembered that

told her he liked women with fair skin

Indeed. All men are probably like that. After all, Nicholas is a man himself too, so he wouldn’t be anydifferent. Moreover, he can easily attract any woman he wants with his capability, Nancy thought.

On the other hand, Nicholas didn’t move nor reach out to them. He allowed the women to link armswith him, and they moved closer to him..

Nancy couldn’t bear to watch any longer. She turned around, pushed open the door, and hurriedlywalked inside. She now felt suffocated, with no mood left for anything.

As soon as she entered, she saw her colleagues pouring drinks. Everyone had been drinking, andwhen they reached out to clink glasses with Nancy, she picked up her glass, raised it, and downed it inone gulp. After she drank it, she felt even more upset. It was as if a stone was weighing on her chest,making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

At this moment, someone shouted, “Breaking news! Mr. Jadin is here. He has just entered the hoteland will be here shortly. Guys, get ready to welcome him.”

Then, the door was pushed open by a pair of delicate hands.

Nancy stared in shock and suddenly stepped forward.
