Billionaire Fall in Love with Me after ONS

Chapter 38 Late Night Visit



Seeing Suzanne approach, Nancy quickly ran up to her and asked nervously, “Suzanne, are you alright?”

She saw the slap mark on Karen’s face just now and was afraid that they would fight in the washroom. She wanted to go and had a look, but she was stopped by Myron.

Suzanne shook her head and smiled. “It’s nothing. Let’s go back.”

“Ah, are we going back?” Nancy exclaimed. “But we haven’t discussed with Myron about recording the program next week. What should we do? Did he refuse?”

“Could it be?” Thinking of another possibility, she clutched Suzanne’s arm tightly. “Did Karen succeed?”

“She didn’t succeed. Don’t think too much.” Suzanne patted her on the shoulder and led her to the parking lot, fearing that her eyes would turn red again. “Mr. Follette said he’ll come next Wednesday. You can talk to your leader later.”

“Really?” Hearing Suzanne’s words, Nancy was so excited that she almost jumped up. She couldn’t hide the joy on her face and hugged her hard. “Suzanne, I love you so much!”

Suzanne slapped her mouth and said, “You don’t need to love me. I want to eat crabs!”

“Okay!” Nancy agreed very readily. “Let’s go eat the authentic crabs tonight!”

Suzanne couldn’t help pursing her lips into a smile, and the gloominess in her heart was swept away by her bright smile.

After driving back to the TV station, Suzanne didn’t get in the car. Anyway, she had nothing to do. It was better to sit in the car and wait for Nancy to finish her work before going out for dinner.

However, just as she was waiting for someone, she received a call from Edwiin.

Suzanne glanced at the caller ID and sighed repeatedly.

Edwiin seemed to have been paying close attention to her during this period and would call her from time to time. It was much better than before. She could relax a lot if she didn’t call him once in half a month.

Helplessly, she took the call and asked gently, “Edwiin, what’s wrong?”

“I’ll take you back for dinner tonight.” Edwiin’s tone was as cold as usual, without any ups and downs.

“No, that’s not necessary,” Suzanne said with some difficulty. She bit her lip and said in a reluctant tone, “I promised my colleagues that I would go out and eat crabs with them.”

Suddenly, there was no sound from the other side.

Suzanne was nervous and uneasy. Just when she thought Edwiin was angry, he said lightly, “Mom asked me to call you and take you back along the way. Since that’s the case, I’ll let her call you.”

“Edwiin, you don’t have to.” Suzanne replied in a hurry. When she remembered that Afra would call her later to ask her to go back, she felt a little helpless and could only agree. “Edwiin, when will you arrive?”

“I’ve already left the company.”

Suzanne replied with an “oh”. Afraid that Edwiin would park his car in front of the TV station again, she hurriedly said, “Edwiin, don’t, don’t come to the TV station. Wait for me at the traffic light intersection.”

Edwiin hummed in agreement and hung up.

Suzanne held her phone and looked at it for a while. Later, she called Nancy, who hadn’t come down yet, telling her that she wanted to go back for dinner and would meet her next time.

“Okay.” Nancy smiled particularly happily and said in a shifty tone, “Is it that boyfriend of yours who’s coming to pick you up? He he, you are definitely going to eat at his place?”

Suzanne didn’t reply and hung up the phone directly.

When had Nancy ever had the heart to gossip like this? She really couldn’t tell.

Suzanne walked out of the parking lot and walked to the intersection of traffic lights to wait for Edwiin.

About 10 minutes later, Edwiin arrived. He saw Suzanne standing quietly at the side of the road with a light blue bag in her hand. He turned the car around and drove over.

After getting in the car, Suzanne was a little unnatural. She put her left wrist under the bag, for fear that Edwiin would see something wrong. However, he didn’t look at her until they got home, let alone notice that she was missing something on her wrist.

Afra had learned to cook red wine steak from the Gourmet teacher, so she didn’t make so many sumptuous dishes today. She prepared a piece of red win steak. It was the first time she had cooked this dish, and the taste was also good, which attracted a lot of praise from her family.

“Is it really good?” After being praised by her family, Afra was very happy.

“It’s very delicious,” Suzanne said with a smile. She picked up a napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth. “Your cooking skills are not inferior to those chefs in high-end hotels now.”

“You’re so sweet!” Afra smiled from ear to ear. Seeing the faint mark on Suzanne’s wrist, she frowned and asked with concern, “How did you get that mark on your wrist? Are you all right?”

Suzanne wrapped the piece of paper in a reflexive napkin and glanced at Edwiin, who was opposite her. Seeing that there was no movement, she let out a sigh of relief and smiled. “It’s okay. I accidentally scratched the corner of the table when I was at work.”

“I remember you always wore a jade bangle, didn’t you?” Afra thought for a while and asked curiously, “Is it a gift from your brother? Did you break it by accident?”

“Uh, no.” Suzanne’s expression was a little unnatural. She tried to pretend to be calm. “I took it down last night, but I forgot to put it on.”

“I see.” Afra nodded. “It’s okay if the bracelet is broken, but don’t let yourself get hurt.”

Suzanne smiled and buried her head in the steak.

The meal unsettled her, and she wanted to leave as soon as she finished it. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden rainstorm, accompanied by several claps of thunder.

Suzanne wanted to go back home. After all, with a car, she didn’t have to worry about the heavy rain.

“You can stay at home. You have nothing to do anyway,” Edwiin said lightly. His cold words made it seem like he didn’t agree to let her go back.

Suzanne sat upright next to him and didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. Originally, she had found a bunch of reasons in her heart, but in the end, he was blocked by Suzanne’s words. All the reasons were destroyed in her mind and she didn’t dare to say anything more.

An hour later, the heavy rain showed no signs of stopping. Suzanne had no choice but to stay at home.

She stayed in the living room until nine o’clock, and then went upstairs to take a shower and sleep. Because her family had never had a habit of locking the door, her room naturally didn’t have one either. After turning off the light, there was only a warm yellow front desk lamp left in the room.

Outside the window, the heavy rain poured down and the room was quiet, as if everything was silent.

After an unknown period of time, the tightly closed door was slowly opened. Immediately after, a tall and slender figure entered the room. His footsteps were quiet and he did not dare to make the slightest sound.

The figure was standing right in front of the door. His dark eyes were fixed on the small figure on the bed and he was listening to her steady breathing.

After a long time, when he saw that the person on the bed had fallen asleep, he gently closed the door, stepped on the soft carpet, and quietly walked over to the bed.
