Better Life Without You. novel Chapter 89

She looked at Amy with confidence and righteousness, causing Amy to shift her gaze away coldly.

Zoe said: "What you are doing is right, ignoring people you don't like is the best way to resolve it."

She smiled.

Just as she was finishing her meal, her cell phone rang.

It was Nick Anderson.

She picked up the phone and said, "Hello."

"Where are you?"

"I'm eating where I work."

"You went to work again?" Nick Anderson said helplessly: "You're about to start working right now, can't you give yourself a break? Laura, tell me, why do you insist on living such a difficult life? "

"I like it this way. This kind of life is very fulfilling."

"Does life change when you obediently rest at home for a few days?"

"Yes."

"You," Nick Anderson said helplessly. After he laughed, he asked, "Has that William Walton went to find you again in the past few days?"

If her brother knew that she was working at William Walton's company, he would be furious.

"Brother, I can take care of my matters, don't worry about it."

"I'm your brother, how could I not care about your matters?" Nick Anderson said as he sighed, "I just want you to protect yourself, do you understand?"

"I will."

"Let's have dinner together tonight."

"But I have an appointment tonight."

"More important than a date with your brother?"

"I'm mainly afraid of your parents talking nonsense."

"They are them. I am me. I want to have a meal with my sister, it's none of their business."

"Mm ...Alright then."

Hanging up, she let out a Laura sigh.

Zoe looked at her, pretending as if nothing had happened, and asked: "You have a date tonight?"

Laura nodding her head, she pursed her lips and gave a slight smile, "Yep."

"Last time, you told Jerry that you have a boyfriend, is that true? Your boyfriend is that guy upstairs?"

"Director, you misunderstood me. We didn't have that kind of relationship."

Zoe was puzzled. How could this be?

They had that kind of relationship.

Could it be that she guessed wrongly?

After dinner, she returned to her office.

When she went to the teahouse to pour water, Amy also caught up.

She looked at Laura, carefully looking towards the door and unhappily said: "Laura, you said that you didn't want to stay in the company, you must have lied. Otherwise, why are you being so close to Zoe? You know that Zoe has been promoted recently, so you flattered her, right? "

Laura looking at her, her expression was also somewhat cold. "That's none of your business."

"We're all colleagues. We should trust each other, shouldn't we? You're evil to the bones."

She looked at her ironically and shook his head with a smile.

The environment in which she had grown up was not considered very good.

Even so, she could tell the difference between right and wrong.

However, this Amy could turn the right thing into wrong.

If Elsie Clark was tactful, then this person must be the type to exude a domineering aura.

"To eat with you, I've taken up some time. Let's go, I've already reserved a table for you."

The two of them entered the dining room and sat in a quiet position near the window.

Since it was a Chinese restaurant, he specifically ordered tea for her.

Taking two sips, Nick Anderson asked: "Where have you been recent? I went to the coffee shop where you were working the day before yesterday to look for you.

She swallowed. "I'm with a friend, so it's not too convenient to tell you."

"You're so secretive every day, did you go to a bar again?"

She shook her head, Laura. "No, I'm going to work at the school soon. I definitely won't go to that kind of place again. I'm also afraid of causing trouble for myself."

Nick Anderson laughed: "Girl, you know everything clearly, this is the most unusual thing about you."

He took out a set of keys and placed them in front of her.

She frowned. "What is this?"

"I bought you a house in the Oasis District next to your school. As a gift to celebrate you are graduated and got a job. From now on, you don't have to squeeze into the staff dorms with others and live in your own house. The owner is you, which I bought with my own money, and it has nothing to do with the Anderson family."

She pursed her lips and pushed the key back in front of him.

Nick Anderson frowned: "What, you want to reject me again?"

"Brother, I have healthy limbs, and I'm working hard to improve. I can't take your gift. I do lack a house right now, but I will buy it myself. Believe me, one day, I will have a real estate certificate. I have confidence in myself."

Nick Anderson looked at her.

He liked her stubbornness, which was different from other girls', but he also especially hoped that her stubbornness was directed at someone else, not him.

"This can't be considered as profit by other people's toil. This is a brother's gift for his sister. You should take it."

She firmly shook her head. "This gift is too valuable to me."

"Laura, I won't force you to do anything else, but this house... Will you take it? Even if you can earn money and then return it to me in the future, I would be willing to. I do not wish for you to grow up and graduate but still, live in a place without a fixed home. I hope to be able to give you a home."

He wished with all his heart that he could say the last sentence as a man, not a brother.

However, not yet.
