Chapter 24 Come with Me


    "There''s something happened to my family. It''s not suitable for Emillie toe back these days. I''ll pick


    her up in a few days. That''s it."


    Dennis hung up the phone after finishing his words. Nova knitted her brows and decided not to tell


    Emillie about this.


    Today was Johnny''s birthday. Nova stopped thinking all this annoying thing and took a beautifully


    packed box out of the drawer and smiled.


    Johnny was a person who enjoyed life very much. The dining ce for them was a famous theme


    restaurant in Y City. The environment here was elegant and simple. Two of them looked like a happy


    couple in such an atmosphere.


    “The fifteenth!”


    Johnny said with a resigned smile after he opened the gift box, “This is the fifteenth watch of the same


    brand you gave me in the past 15 years. You really are the master of perfunctory.”


    Nova sipped at the orange juice, said with her brows raised, “This is customized by thepany so


    that I don''t need to bother to choose a gift.”


    Johnny had nothing to say about the gift. He put down the box and asked smilingly, “Where is your new


    boyfriend? Doesn’t he feel jealous when you go out alone with me?”


    Nova darted him a nce and said, “Do you want to have dinner, or have troubles?”


    Johnny shrugged his shoulders and raised his hand, “Okay, I will keep my mouth shut. Waiter! Dish


    up!”


    "Alfred, let''s sit over there."


    There was a gentle voice behind her. Nova looked up and saw Alfred standing not far away from her.


    Her fingers which were cutting the food were stopped. Then she lowered her head and gently poked


    the dishes on the te, trying to keep calm.


    Alfred''s eyes went grave when he saw Nova and Johnny. When the woman beside him noticed her


    expression, she asked with a gentle smile, "Do you know that girl?"


    Alfred shook his head slowly, “No.”


    When Nova came out of the bathroomter, she threw herself into a man. Without looking up, she


    leaned slightly out of the way. The man in front of her did the same. She felt strange and frowned. The


    man sighed and called her name in a low voice.


    “Nova.”


    Nova got her body stiff after hearing the voice. Her fingers were gathered up tight nervously. And she


    even felt her breathing stopped for a moment.


    She could see Alfred''s slender legs. His tall and handsome posture showed the charm of a mature


    man, but made her feel unfamiliar.


    He habitually stretched out his hand to touch her hair, but Nova stepped back vigntly. His hand


    stopped in the air, and finally gently retracted.


    He sighed, “You’ve grew up.”


    She looked at him coldly, flickered her mouth and finally said, “Do I know you?”


    Alfred narrowed his eyes and began to smile.


    “You still like to bear a grudge.”


    Nova was suddenly a little tired of that everything seemed to be under his control. She wondered how


    the man she fell in love with in those years could be such an unfathomable person. She wanted to end


    the conversation and was about to leave, but Alfred suddenly grabbed her arm.


    He asked in a low voice, “What’s the rtionship between you and Jacob?”


    When he asked, his eyes were narrowed and was a sharp light inside. Nova was stunned for a second,


    then she pushed him away, answered with a trace of irony, “Sexual rtionships.”


    However, Alfredughed in a good mood. He said in a soft tone, “You didn’t even change a bit after so


    many years.”


    When Nova was angry, she liked to talk the opposite. In this case, Alfred thought that there was really


    nothing happened between Nova and Jacob. And he smiled deeply.


    Nova watched him calmly, and said, “Do you really think that I am still the innocent girl after six years?”


    The smile on Alfred’s face was fading.


    Nova continued, “The girl who loved you in those years had already dead. Now the woman standing in


    front of you is a mercenary businesswoman.”


    Alfred drooped his mouth and his eyes went gloomy. He asked after a while, “So you are not kidding,


    right?”


    Nova tightened her mouth and said, “You don’t need to know.”


    Then, she brushed past him.


    Alfred clenched his fists with his face turned sullen. He was confident and self-motivated all the time.


    He grew up in an environment that made him get his achievement today with the purpose of being


    outstanding. Therefore, he looked down upon a lot of things including love. He previously abandoned


    Nova without hesitation, but when he became famous and saw her again, he suddenly couldn''t control


    his feeling for her. Over these years, he had been paying attention to Nova and knew that she had


    been single all this time. The natural superiority of men made him proud. He thought that he was the


    only one for her in life. However, seeing the scene of her kissing with Jacob in the newspaper that day


    made him angry and upset. It was not because that he still loved her, he just couldn''t ept that she


    was now together with Jacob!

    “Boss, Miss Graham goes out with Mr. Johnny tonight.”


    After hanging up the phone, Eric said to Jacob who was having a rest by closing eyes.


    “Are you sure she isn’t with Alfred?”


    “Alfred is with Miss Evans.”


    However, they were in the same restaurant.


    Jacob opened his eyes and asked, “Where are they now?”


    “They are supposed to be on the way home.”


    “Go to the Graham’s. Stop them.”


    Eric didn''t reply. He felt that the way of his boss chasing the girl was like a teenage hooligan would did


    that stopped her on the way to school.


    "Have a good rest. Tomorrow will be thepletion ceremony of Tian Haiwan. All your energy has


    been in it. Good luck!"


    Johnny sent Nova out of the car and said with a smile.


    Nova nodded and said, "Be careful on your way. Say hello to your father for me."


    Johnny nodded and suddenly reached out his hand to take her hair off her cheek.


    “Good night.”


    Nova smiled to him in return.


    Pow!


    The car was suddenly hit by the back. Johnny subconsciously grasped the steering wheel and keep the


    front ss intact. However, he back cover of the car shook and fell down.


    "Drive carefully! Go and see if anyone is hurt."


    Nova pulled a long face when she heard the familiar voice.


    Jacob got off the car and apologized, “I’m so sorry for scaring you. It was the new driver driving. He


    was not so familiar with my car.”


    He said to Johnny, “I''ll have someone to repair your carter. Eric, drive my car and send this


    gentleman home.”


    Nova had nothing to say with this brassy man. She ignored him and asked Johnny, “Are you okay? I go


    ask my driver to send you home.”


    Johnny watched Jacob who was about to lose his temper and said smilingly, “Since this gentleman is


    so kind, then I will go with his assistant. It''s gettingte. You should go home and have a rest.”


    He gracefully got off the car and smiled to Jacob with full of emotions.


    Nova gazed after them until they couldn’t be seen. She was somber on her face and was about to


    leave.


    Jacob stepped forwards and stopped her, “Come with me.”
