Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 185

The scum tortured her again before leaving! How could she let this happen?

Rubbing her sore breasts, she could not believe how easy she has fallen prey again to him.

As soon as she entered the office, Harry followed her.

He opened the door and saw Lola on her desk with her face down. He smiled smugly.

"You... You.... Why you are here again?" She looked at the man in a bit of a panic. How evil this man was

Harry threw the papers on her desk. "You still have to study them today." She knew that this was actually for her benefit. Otherwise, she could turn to nobody for help when he left.

Lola looked at the folder and immediately rolled her eyes. "I can't stand up. My legs are sore." She spoke softly and weakly, staring him at the face.

Harry sat on the sofa and looked at her indifferently. "If you don't go over here and finish them now, you shall work all night." Lola curled her lips and held on the table to stand up. She was that weak. Sitting on the sofa, she pretended to look fine. Harry would never understand. Only she could feel the pain.

They talked in the office for three hours. Harry explained in detail to her the papers and important documents that he just brought in. He emphasized all the acts of caution that she should always take as a leader of the company. "Are we clear about everything?" He leaned against the sofa and squinted at her. She was trying her best to dutifully take down notes.

"If we didn't meet that day, would I be less confused right now? If we didn't meet..." Just then, Lola's cell phone rang. The ringtone was of a sad, melancholic tone, a perfect background for their love story.

"Hello, Zoe." Lola calmly replied to Zoe.

Zoe was having a cigarette while fiddling with the earrings Lola gave him a long time ago. "Are you feeling better?"

Lola smiled and thought how blessed she was for having somebody who was always on her side. "Much better, thanks for your help last night." She talked with Zoe as if no one was around.

Harry heard Lola mention Zoe, and his eyes became intense and piercing. He remembered what happened last night. Her guy friend really cared about her! He was getting skeptical, and a bit jealous.

"My pleasure. Should we go out for dinner tonight?" He just wanted to spend his last hours with her.

"Tonight? Dinner?" She repeated slowly, thinking if her schedule was free tonight.

Harry looked at her who was going to say yes, and suddenly said, "You've got to work tonight!"

...Lola looked at Harry who had closed his eyes so she would not see how his eyes has turned bloodshot red. She totally understood what he meant. He was deliberately stopping her from eating with Zoe.

"Who's talking?" Zoe seemed to hear a man's voice.

"Nobody. I'm in the office, and I'm supposed to work overtime tonight. I'll call you later if I can get out early here." She really felt bad for refusing his invitation. Only when Harry left could she make another appointment with Zoe.

Zoe disappointedly put the earring into his pocket, and calmly replied, "All right, please do keep in touch. I'm just here."

After hanging up the phone, Lola looked at Harry who was squinting, and a bit uneasy. "What do you want?"

Harry slowly got back on his feet. "We are going to eat seafood tonight and bring Nicole along."

... "I won't go with you!" Why did she have to follow him? Lola tried to deny his offer.

Harry put his hands in the pockets of his trousers and gave the woman a cold look. "One more body exercise? I'd love to help you! I love helping you."

Lola's face suddenly flushed with embarrassment. "Harry, you're a bad man!" She was mad. How was he controlling her every action?

Harry walked out of her office, leaving the folders behind, while coughing up a short laugh.

It was a little cold in the evening.

Lola put on a thin white coat to Nicole and took her out of the villa.

In front of the villa, Harry leaned against the car, waiting patiently for them.

He became gentle and happy at the sight of this little one, "Nicole."

"Uncle Harry! Uncle Harry!" Nicole immediately broke away from Lola's hand and ran to Harry.

Nicole rushed carelessly to the steps below. Unfortunately, she missed one step and was about to fall.

Lola ran to her daughter. "Nicole!"

A tall figure, faster than her, caught Nicole before she could fall on the ground.

Lola let out a sigh of relief. She became very scared. If she had fallen to the concrete floor, she would have been badly hurt.

"Thank you." She politely expressed her gratitude. Harry looked at Nicole in his arms and straightened her hairpin.

Nicole looked at Harry like he was her idol and had her arms around his neck, "Uncle Harry, Uncle Harry, you're awesome!" Without her Uncle Harry, she would have figured in an accident.

Hearing the cute voice of the little girl, Harry smiled like he never did before. "You have to be as strong as Uncle Harry when you grow up and protect your mommy, OK?"

Lola's eyes widened in happiness. Did she need protection? "Do I look weak?" She walked close to them and rejected the idea.

"You're not weak, but could be a bit stupid sometimes!" Harry teasingly replied. Nicole laughed at his words. He took Nicole to the back seat and put her in the child's car seat.

Lola bit her lower lip in disgust at Nicole. She laughed loudly when she heard Harry's playful banter. Lola determined to have her payback when she got home!

At Seafood King Restaurant.

Harry had booked a table in advance. He put Nicole in a baby chair next to him, and took the menu from the restaurant manager.

"An Australian lobster, an avocado salad, a steamed sole fish, Yangcheng Lake crabs, abalones with oyster sauce, garlic scallops…" He ordered a lot of seafood in one fast motion and passed the menu to Lola, "Do you want anything else?"

She scanned the menu. The food here was very expensive. A single fish dish cost several hundred.

She saw a dish in the menu which reminded her of what happened at noon when Harry advised her to eat more trotters. She promised to be more careful this time around. "Hello, sir, ten mustard oysters and a stew of sea cucumbers with millet and grains."

Certainly, after ordering, she got confused looks from both Harry and the manager.

But the manager maintained a professional stance and kept smiling. "OK. Anything else?"

Lola passed the menu to him, "No, thanks!" Harry had ordered enough food.

After the manager left, Harry poured some juice for Nicole and glanced at the little woman beside him. Thinking about how they would spend the night after the dinner, Harry said, "Let's get Nicole back home after dinner, wait for her to sleep and you come home with me."

There was no children's room in his house. He did not want Nicole sleeping alone in a room. But they would be disturbed if she slept next to them. So, it was better to let Nicole sleep home and come back for her first thing in the morning.
