Chapter 49
Chester laughed and said: “Excuse me, Mr. Smith, today I‘ve got something else to attend to, I‘ll find another chance to make it up for Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
you.”
There was an old saying went like you should never slap someone who siniles at you. So at this moment, Mr. Smith couldn‘t say anything
more, so he said with a smile: “President Don, don‘t bother, if you‘re busy, please go ahead.” Chester nodded and left with Nova. The speech in the hall continued, but with these two big shots gone, everyone felt a little disappointed because the show they were expecting didn‘t play at last, They had to wait for the news from the media. Both of them went back to the car and Chester opened the co–driver door for Nova, and then she hopped in. Nova didn‘t say a word until Chester got in the car and closed the door. She said: “This banquet is over, so when do you plan to appeal?” . “After your divorce. I‘ve got something else to arrange, and it won‘t take long.” He replied. Nova nodded and didn‘t ask more. After finishing this whole process, Nova wouldn‘t have to work with him any longer. And in the future, Henry and she would be total strangers. She could finally lived a life of her own. Chester started the car and turned to look at her and said: “Are you hungry? How about we gran some food?” Nova shook her head and said: “I‘ll pass, I think I need some rest.”
Though she was calm and decisive, but the exhaustion deep down inside her could never be hidden. Maybe it would still hurt once she decided to put it down after many years of deep affection. Chester didn‘t insist and drove in the direction of her home. Nova‘s phone rang and it suddenly broke the silence inside the car, Nova tool a look at the Caller ID and picked up the call. Before she could speak, a voice filled with anxiety came from the other end of the phone. “Nova, how is everything going over there? Has the banquet already started a while ago?! Nova, we‘ve got a traffic accident here! I can‘t believe I didn‘t
witness the whole thing!!” “Traffic accident?!” Nova asked with a nervous look on her face, and she said: “Are you okay?” Chester took a look at Nova and slowed down the car. He thought, he could take her to the scene if that was what she wanted. “We‘re fine, a drunk man drove his car and hit us, he couldn‘t even hold the steering wheel firmly, but was heavy on the acceleration pedal. He was also fine, but now already taken away by the traffic police. The rear of our car was badly damaged, and the front crashed into a tree. I‘m afraid this car is already scrapped and undriveable. But don‘t worry, we all aren‘t injured.” Nova felt relieved slightly, but the nervous voice from Zona burst out again, she said: “We‘re now at the suburb area and already called a car to pick us up, I‘m afraid we‘ll be late. So what‘s the situation right now and have you announced it already? Look, don‘t say anything until we get there! I’m so looking forward to it!” Nova thought, since her voice sounded energetic and she wanted to attend the banquet, so she was fine. Nova felt relieved totally and smiled slightly and said: “You don‘t have to come, I‘m out of there already.” “What?! So fast?” “Yeah, I‘ve taken care of everything I should, you don‘t need to come.” “No Way?!” Zona said with a deep disappointment in her voice, and then she said: “Come on! I can‘t believe I just missed it. No000000! You gotta make it up for me!!” “Sure, I‘ll buy you dinner someday.” “I want you to cook!” “No problem.” Zona now felt happy, but the next moment she asked again to confirm: “Are you...are you really divorced already? Nova, please tell me you didn‘t lie to me because you didn‘t want me to worry about you, did you?” “I‘m really divorced, you‘ll see the news from the media.” Zona frowned slightly and thought, she wouldn‘t be lying about such a big matter like divorce, so she nodded and said: “Alright, I‘ll just trust you. Where are you? Let‘s have some fun tonight! I can‘t wait to hear about your splendid act!”
