    Chapter 105 Ex-boyfriend Wants to Make Up


    “By the way, are you free tonight, Nicole? I would like to buy you dinner. It’s been a while since west


    met, after all,” Henry said immediately, taking a step toward her.


    Seeing that the man was approaching her, Nicole took a step back out of habit, and after she did, she


    saw the hurt expression on his face.


    She froze as she didn’t think of this because she had acted almost instinctively. Nevertheless, she gave


    him a nod, thinking to herself, The nanny’s home to take care of that rascal, so there’s nothing to worry


    about, she thought.


    “There’s a nice restaurant nearby, and it’s dinner time now. Why don’t we go there?” she suggested. As


    she was feeling a little guilty now, she couldn’t bring herself to turn him down.


    “Sounds good.” Henry nodded and followed behind her.


    When they reached the restaurant, Henry realized that it was a high-end restaurant, and just a meal


    here could cost the monthly sry of a regr employee.


    His chest tightened, and he felt unbearable upon seeing the prices on the menu. This is obviously a rip-


    off! he thought. Just one sd costs 388, not to mention other main dishes such as steak or others,


    which are all listed in four-figure prices.


    Flipping open the menu, Nicole took a look at it and asked, “May I order a steak? The steak in this


    restaurant is pretty good.”


    She had been here once with Colton, and it was true that the steak was rather delicious.


    Meanwhile, Henry took a look at the price of the steak, but for the sake of his dignity as a man, he


    tightened his jaw and nodded. “Sure, go ahead and order it.” After Nicole had ced her order, he


    started, “Nicole, five years ago… did you really have a child with another man?”


    Almost everyone in thepany knew what happened in the Design Department today; the things


    Sabrina said had spread throughout thepany like bushfire, and there wasn’t a single person who


    didn’t know. It was just that nobody dared to discuss it because of Colton’s warning.


    However, that didn’t surprise Nicole. For this type of issue, even though everyone didn’t dare to say it


    out loud, they were probably criticizing her behind her back.


    Lowering her gaze, she stared at the ss in her hand for a long while before mumbling, “Yeah.”

    Although Henry’s expression remained unchanged, his anger was already burning within his chest, and


    his palms beneath the table tightened into fists as he sneered silently, What a slut! After breaking up


    with me back then, she just couldn’t wait to crawl into another man’s bed! It’s no wonder she became


    the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel. So, it’s really because she’s good in bed.


    Back then, they had dated for a year, and their most intimate gesture was merely holding hands. He


    couldn’t believe he thought that she was a pure woman back then as it turned out that she was really


    just a wh*re!


    Despite all the thoughts in his head, he put up a bitter expression on his face as he poured a ss of


    water. “If we were still together for the past five years, you probably wouldn’t do as well as you are


    now,” he said in a self-deprecating manner.


    Looking at the dejected look on Henry, Nicole hurriedlyforted, “That’s not true, Henry. You have


    your worth, so don’t belittle yourself.”


    He looked at her, staring deep into her eyes with his dark eyes. Gulping, he then uttered, “It’s been five


    years, Nicole, but I still can’t forget about you. I don’t mind the fact that you have a child, and I can


    regard him as my own. Do we still have a chance?”


    Even though he was disgusted by her and thought of her as a wh*re, at the same time, he couldn’t


    deny that she was the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel.


    As for the promotion which Nicole mentioned, if he could really restore their rtionship, there was no


    point for him to remain in the Gardner Corporation because he could simply choose any position in


    F&M Apparel then!


    Shifting her eyes away, she smiled bitterly and shook her head. “I’m sorry, Henry.”


    Henry understood what she meant, but he was unwilling to give up. Seeing the guilt she had for


    himself, he decided to make use of this guilt, thinking that she would give in to him one day.


    “It’s okay. I understand. It’s too random of me to bring this up so suddenly anyway,” he said in a


    considerate tone.
