A Love Rekindled

Chapter 85

When I thought of how ruthless Bruce was to Douglas, I apologetically said, "I'm afraid I have to turn you down. I've troubled you for too many things, so I'll handle the rest of it by myself.”

Douglas paused for a moment before answering, "Okay."

After seeing Douglas off, it was already late in the evening.

It didn’t take long before I received a call from Caroline.

"Come and pick me up from Vienna Winery. It's something urgent," she stuttered, indicating that she had drunk.

Not daring to delay, I immediately drove over.

However, when I pushed open the door, my heart ached when I saw Caroline being surrounded by three to four men

I drank three glasses before I managed to get her out of there.

When we entered the basement, Caroline stopped acting and complained, "If it weren't to get information from them, I wouldn't even have bothered! "But I already told you that I could handle it. Why did you drink?”

I was displeased. "You should bring me along to things like this."

Caroline sensed what I was thinking, so she came over and hugged me. "Don't worry. I can handle this amount of alcohol. But most importantly, I managed to get information about Camille."

Caroline said that Camille would secretly appear at his fan meetings

This was fantastic news for us, and I really didn’t want Anika's incident to make her unhappy again. After sending Caroline back, I thought about how I couldn't let Anika head to court.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

So, it seemed like the only way left was for me to beg Bruce.

Even Caroline was willing to go to great lengths for the company. so I figured that my dignity wasn't that important.

It was already night when the taxi stopped at Roeval Group

After taking a deep breath, I headed into the building

However, I was stopped by the guard on duty.

"Mr. Harold has an appointment with me. My phone died, so please let him know about this," I lied through my teeth. The guard looked at me suspiciously.

But since it was urgent, I could only press my luck. "Don't worry. I'm close to Mr. Harold. He won't blame you."

Then, just as I finished talking, the guard suddenly straightened his back before bowing. "Good evening, Mr. Harold."

I turned around and instantly felt embarrassed.

Bruce and John were standing a few feet away, -and from how tense Bruce was, it was apparent that he'd heard I my conversation with the guard. ta

"Mr. Harold, she said..." the guard started

I didn't wartto be blacklisted by Roeval Group’ s security system, so I interrugted him and forced a smile. "Mr. Harold, why did you come back SO late? I've... I've been waiting for yotk" ‘ ~

Perhaps I was under the influence of alcohol, because my tone seemed softer than usual.

It made it seem like I was buttering up to him

Bruce also smelled alcohol on me. Then, he furrowed his eyebrows and asked indifferently, "Did you drink?"

Well, at least he didn’t kick me out.

I nodded and pinched my palm. Then, I picked up the courage to ask, "I have a bit of a headache. Can you offer me some coffee?" A hint of mockery flashed across Bruce's eyes upon hearing this.

Then, he snorted and headed toward the entrance of the elevator without even sparing me a glance.

Instantly, I felt my heart sinking.

Bruce was a clever man, and there was no way he couldn't see through my scheme.

However, I wasn't Cindy. I was unable to evoke even a little bit of sympathy from him.

It was the same as before.

However, just as I was about to give up and leave, John's reminder rang in mycear, "Nancy, don't just stand there. The elevator's almost here.”
