Love In Twilight By Tiny Mountains Chapter 116

Chapter 116 Your Hubby Is Leaving? “Why don’t we leave together?” Nicole offered when it was time to

get off work

“Nah, I’m going back to the dorm. It’s near. I still have to work overtime today, anyway.” Clarissa was

quick to decline, for she scared that the previous incident might repeat.

“I’ll be leaving, then,” said Nicole.

“Okay.”

Nicole went downstairs, and saw Josephi waiting for her in the office lobby.

“Let’s go to the bookstore, Mr. Moore,” Nicole said. “Sorry for troubling you.” “It’s fine. About the

certified public accountant, feel free to come to me if you have any questions.” Joseph seemed a little

distracted when speaking to Nicole.

He kept looking around at people getting off work in the lobby, but he never saw the one he was

looking for… Damien caught a glimpse of Joseph just as he was leaving his office. ‘Why is that man

here?’ Nicole was just a very ordinary employee. Damien didn’t know her well, but he had heard

Clarissa mention her name many times. It was normal for the finance department to be hiring. The

hiring process wasn’t enough to alarm him, so he didn’t recognize that Nicole was walking with Joseph.

Damien called Clarissa and asked, “Where are you?” “I’m at the office. I’ve got some more work to do.”

“Don’t you want to see me off?” Damien was relieved to know that Joseph hadn’t seen Clarissa

“I’m busy.” “Your hubby will be going first, then?” Damien teased Clarissa. “Sure. Goodbye.” After

saying that, Clarissa hung up without hesitation. It seemed like Clarissa was unaware of Joseph’s visit.

Damien, for his part, couldn’t understand why Joseph came here. Meanwhile, in Joseph’s car. “Where

are we going, Mr. Moore?” Nicole asked. It was her first time successfully inviting Joseph on a date.

She wanted to show this to Clarissa, but she didn’t expect the latter to decline the offer.

Her previous attempts to ask Joseph out on a date failed every single time. Therefore, Nicole took the

plunge and applied to New East Corporation. She knew people would laugh at her decision to return to

New East Corporation, but she did it anyway. After all, she was aware of how much Joseph liked

Clarissa. Currently, Clarissa was working in the New East Corporation’s finance department. Perhaps

Joseph would seek out Nicole for that very reason… Sure enough, Joseph came to meet Nicole just as

she had predicted. However, his eyes were always darting around and looking for Clarissa.

“Let’s go to the Owlery,” Joseph said. “Yeals, okay.” Nicole nodded solemnly. When they arrived at The

Owlery, they realized that the financial and cost management book was no longer available.

Fortunately, Joseph and the owner of the bookstore had a good relationship as Joseph had signed

books at The Owlery before. The owner said he would deliver the books to Joseph when they arrived.

“I’ll give it to you when he sends it to me. How about it?” Joseph asked Nicole.

“Sure, Joseph. Thiank you.” Nicole’s eyes lit up in delighted surprise. She stopped referring to Joseph

as Mr. Moore, and called him directly by his name. She came to tlie conclusion that the book delivery

would be another good excuse for a date.

“You’re welcome,” Joseph said thoughtfully.

After that, they had dinner together. Then, Joseph drove Nicole home.

The next day. Joseph went on a business trip to teach a course. The trip lasted about a week.

The book arrived around the third day. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Joseph was away froin Genovia, so he told his driver, Luke, to deliver it to Nicole.

At five in the evening, Luke stood in front of the New East Corporation. He smoked while waiting for

Nicole.

Joseph gave him Nicole’s WhatsApp, so the two had been in touch. Luke didn’t expect to see Damien

first instead of Nicole. It was such a small world.

Damien was probably wearing a tie that Clarissa had bought for him. However, that didn’t really matter

to Luke. He could sow discord without relying on facts, after all.

“Where’s my sister?” Luke demanded Damien. His relationship with Damien had come to the point

where they greeted each other in a somewhat hostile manner, devoid of any basic decency.

Damien frowned as Luke approached him. “What are you doing in front of my company?”

Luke stared at Damien’s tie and smiled. “Young Master Moore and Clarissa have great taste. They

picked out this tie for you, and it looks good on you. Clarissa was smart enough to consult Young

Master Moore’s advice.”

Damien frowned slightly and said, “I see. Pass my thanks to Mr. Moore.”

After that, Damien went to the parking lot. Luke was happy to see him leave. Damien looked impassive

earlier, but Luke could spot the hint of anger in the former’s eyes.

Good! He would be happy to see Damien dump Clarissa over this. He had to snatch every and all

opportunities he had to separate the two.
