Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk-Chapter 832: Days Spent Living Apart

"Precisely because I understand you, that’s why, after so many days of things happening, and you coming and going early and late for so many days, I haven’t shown you any dissatisfaction or demanded anything from you."

Nora Northwood’s fair and delicate face showed no emotional waves.

When she spoke, Jasper Sinclair’s eyes never left her face, as if wanting to see through that beautiful façade into her inner world.

"Indeed, you haven’t demanded how I should act; you just avoid any chance of seeing me, and then naturally impose your cold violence."

"If that’s what you think, then so be it."

Nora shrugged, her back leaning against the chair in a lazy posture, as if she didn’t care at all about what Jasper thought of her.

A touch of chill rose in Jasper’s eyes; he didn’t like the so-called ’giving up’ attitude.

Then, with a shift in tone, "Nora, I have been trying my best to take care of your feelings. I hope you can learn to empathize and consider my situation, can you?"

"Empathize...sounds nice, but a mysterious woman who, from day one, wants to take my husband away, you ask me to empathize? Is it that I’m out of touch with this era, or is your brain broken? Or perhaps, you truly want to go with her?"

Different positions, different starting points.

Faced with ’Peach Bell,’ the two could never reach consensus in their thoughts.

Jasper’s Adam’s apple moved up and down a few times, but ultimately, he said nothing.

...

Nora got up, adjusted her breathing, and left the restaurant. That night, she returned to Elaine’s place.

Jasper discovered she was not home after eleven o’clock. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

These days, although Nora deliberately avoided meeting him, she had never stayed out all night.

The first thought that flashed through Jasper’s mind was related to the smuggler group’s case.

Clumsily, he dialed Nora’s number, only to learn from the call that she was at Elaine’s house.

While relieved, he also felt very aggrieved, "Just because of this little incident, you want to separate from me?"

He used the word "separate" very subtly.

Nora carefully pondered for a moment and replied, "Regarding the current situation, there’s no way for us to agree on our opinions. Taking this opportunity, let’s give each other some space to cool down. Once you’ve found the person, we can talk about other things."

So calm, so rational, it made Jasper feel that the sweetness of the past month was all an act she put on, and his efforts to stay and try were all in vain because of a small episode.

The phone call ended on an unpleasant note.

Actually, this was Nora’s temporary decision.

She couldn’t watch her husband labor day and night for another woman and worry.

She was afraid that her love for Jasper would gradually fade in the coming days.

So, when the car reached the crossroads, she instructed Francis to take a turn.

She hadn’t even packed daily necessities or a change of clothes.

When she arrived at Elaine’s flat, Nora felt an immense void in her heart, and at the moment she received the call, she was acutely aware of the hope she held deep inside.

Unfortunately, things always ended up a mess when she handled them.
