Chapter 187 Worn-Out Shoes
Chapter 187 Worn-Out Shoes
Harry didn't find Lola in bed, so he went to the balcony. There she was. She was so beautiful to look at with her swaying with the wind.
Sitting close behind her, he stretched his arms around her waist and laid his head on her shoulder. He could smell the vanilla scented lotion she rubbed on her skin. He was so enticed.
Lola nestled in his arms and neither of them spoke, enjoying the comfort and tranquility of this moment. The road ahead was so uncertain and they wanted to make the most of their time together.
The stars were bright in the night sky. The downtown was still brightly lit in the distance. The view of the night was so pleasing to the sight. It made the night more festive and romantic.
After a long while, Lola broke the silence. "Harry, do you really love me?" She asked the question once four years ago, but she didn't get his answer.
This time, she wondered how he would reply...
Harry pulled her towards him and answered without hesitation, "Yes, I do."
With a smile, she turned her head and took hold of his neck. "I don't want to let you go. Please don't leave me alone. Can you do that?" How could she live without him?
As she buried her face in his arms, Harry kept silent for a while before he spoke his mind. "I'll take you and Nicole to a place where nobody knows us. We'll start all over again. How about that?" He pulled her up and looked her intently in the eyes.
Lola was shocked. Was he proposing that they elope with Nicole? Why?
Everything was so vague just moments ago. Now, how did they come this far? Was Harry hiding something from her? Was he suffering from deep sorrow? Why would he rather run off with her than
publicly break off the engagement with Yolanda?
However, if that was the case, he must be suffering from some really difficult dilemma. Well, she guessed that it must be Rose who had put him in this very hard time of his life.
Thinking of the possibility, she shook her head gently. Rose was Harry's mother. How could she force him to harm his family for her sake?
"I hope you will think of me when you hold and touch another woman!" She threw her arms around his neck again and looked closely at his face.
Harry, who can't imagine putting his hands on any other woman, kissed her passionately on the lips and answered, "Of course, I will."
Hearing his words, Lola shot him a pout and said accusingly, "Did you just mean that you will make love to another girl?"
Harry could not utter a word but laughed. He did not mean that!
He stood from the recliner, picked her up and went inside the bedroom.
The two woke up to the light cast by the morning sun. They lay comfortably in each other's arms.
At eight in the morning, Lola hurriedly got out of the Maserati and ran into the elevator.
"I'm going to be late for the meeting again!" she thought. "What a shame."
Harry, however, got out of the car only a few moments after Lola went inside the elevator.
Lola had warned him, "Don't get out of the car before I am in the office. We cannot be seen taking the same elevator!"
Lola presided over the morning meeting, She was getting used to being the leader. Her performance did not disappoint Harry. She was good at it.
She was a woman of decisive character, and with considerable insight into investment. Her only weakness would be her very kind heart. Kindness is a weakness in business. One has to be competitive at all times.
She stayed for two hours in the CEO office and this time, it was truly about work.
She was in a good mood because of last night. When they had finished talking about work, a series of rapid knocks on the door interrupted them.
"Come in!" Lola moved sideways to keep a reasonable distance from Harry.
To their surprise, Yolanda came in. She was supposed to be in C Country right at this very moment.
She wore a rose-red one-piece hip skirt and high heels with the similar striking color. Her hair scattered behind her back.
Looking at Lola sitting beside Harry, she repressed her jealousy and anger and put on a smiling face.
"Harry!" She called him gently and walked towards him.
Harry frowned. "Why did you come back?"
Yolanda noticed Harry's displeasure and her heart pinched with pain.
She was really upset that Harry was with Lola. Every single day that Harry stayed in A Country was a torture for her.
"Your mother told me to bring you back to C Country." She smiled and sat on Harry's right side. At that moment, the three of them formed a straight line. It was rather awkward.
Lola glanced at both of them, flashed an impish smile, and put her arms around the man's neck. "Boss Si, I have to go now. Remember to miss me!" For emphasis, she gave Harry a kiss on the lips.
Then she stood and walked to the office door, ignoring Yolanda, who was gnashing her teeth in deep rage.
Downright furious, Yolanda would by no means let Lola just walk out of this!
"Lola, stop!" Hearing her shrill voice, Harry became very nervous. Yolanda rose to her feet and followed Lola.
Lola didn't stop her walking. Yolanda was thinking too highly of herself if she thought that Lola would follow her order!
Yolanda strode forward and pulled Lola, paying no attention to what Harry will think. Today, she must teach her a lesson!
When Lola reached for the doorknob, Yolanda grasped her hand and tightened her grip.
She freed her hand with a jerk and glared at Yolanda. "Let go of me! You're too filthy!" Lola hated being touched by Yolanda! She could not stand being harassed by such evil person.
Yolanda was really mad. "How dare she accuse me of being filthy? Who does she think she is?"?she thought. Her tone suddenly changed. Her aura lightened and she put on a smirk. Lola was confused. "Harry and I are getting married soon. We both invite you to our wedding."
The man looked coldly at the two quarreling women and sat down in his chair, obviously tired of the quarrel. Slowly, he lit a cigarette, trying to ignore what was happening.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Lola wasn't annoyed by Yolanda's words. He walked to the man and clasped her hands around his neck. "It's okay. When he holds you, he would be thinking of me. I'm satisfied with that! When he is touching you, he is making love to me!"
Beaming with pleasure, Lola fixed her eyes on Harry as she spoke to Yolanda.
How could Yolanda not be angry about this shameful disrespect! Harry sat emotionless, continued smoking his cigarette and looked at Lola. She did whatever she liked and he seemed to have no intention of stopping her.
For a moment, Yolanda almost gave up, but this man had been in her heart for more than ten years! How could he be so heartless, saying goodbye and never looking back?
But even so, she was once important in his heart, wasn't she?
Yolanda was relieved at the thought of this. "No matter what, you're merely a mistress. It's okay you don't care about your own reputation. But don't you care about the reputation of your family? Be ashamed of yourself!"
This greatly angered Lola. Smirking and pouting yet again, she squinted at Harry. He was not going to do anything about it, then?
"You're right! Well, you can have my worn-out shoes! You're welcome! I just don't care, okay?" Lola's words cast a shadow over the faces of both Yolanda and Harry. In the end, Harry coldly puffed a heavy smoke into her mouth. It choked her until her tears burst out.
"Ugh…" She broke away from him and stooped, coughing violently. The bastard toyed with her again!
