Her Marriage: The Night is Still Young-Chapter 91: President Gallagher Seems in a Great Mood Today

Chapter 91: Chapter 91: President Gallagher Seems in a Great Mood Today

Julian Grant was about to explode, "You lunatic, shut up."

"Smack—" a sharp sound echoed.

Julian Grant couldn’t stand it any longer and slapped her.

Evelyn Thorne almost lost her balance and fell, "Julian Grant, you dared to hit me? I’m not letting this go."

With that said,

She lunged at Julian Grant, clawing and hitting.

Julian Grant was angry and furious. He twisted her arm and pinned her to the ground, yelling, "Stop this madness."

Evelyn Thorne struggled but couldn’t break free, so she turned to Josephine Thompson for help, "Ms. Thompson, look, he’s bullying me."

Josephine Thompson’s heart pounded, and she rushed forward to pull Julian Grant away, "Julian Grant, let her go. She’s a girl; how can you hit her?"

Julian Grant was beside himself, "Josephine, she’s a lunatic, don’t treat her like a girl."

"Evelyn Thorne, get out now, or I’ll throw you out myself."

"Boo-hoo, Ms. Thompson, save me."

Josephine Thompson could only tug at his arms, "Let her go now!"

Julian Grant sighed and reluctantly released her.

Evelyn Thorne scrambled up from the ground and clung tightly to Josephine Thompson, "Ms. Thompson, he hit me, boo-hoo."

"...," Josephine Thompson felt a tingling in her scalp, unsure how to comfort her.

She was starting to regret inviting them to her home.

"Stop crying, go back to your room and sleep! You’re wearing so little, don’t catch a cold."

Although the room had heating,

it was too big, so it was still a bit chilly.

Evelyn Thorne pretended to be pitiful, hugging her tightly, "Hmm～, then I’ll sleep with you."

Josephine Thompson’s scalp tingled, "Sorry, I’m not used to sleeping with others."

"No, no, I just want to sleep with you."

Upon hearing this, Josephine Thompson felt even more annoyed.

Seeing this, Julian Grant dragged her away by the arm, forcibly pulling her from Josephine Thompson’s embrace, "Evelyn Thorne, if you keep whining, I’ll throw you out now."

"Let me go."

Julian Grant, enraged, raised his hand to hit her, "Stop this madness."

Evelyn Thorne flinched, looking at him pitifully, "Hmm, you’re so annoying, I’m going to tell Auntie Grant you’re bullying me."

Julian Grant’s face darkened, "Either go back to your room to sleep, or I’ll toss you onto the streets, your choice."

"...Fine, I’ll go back to my room."

"Hurry up."

Evelyn Thorne dared not continue arguing, quickly got up, and returned to her room.

Julian Grant let out a heavy breath, awkwardly and uneasily looking at Josephine Thompson, "Josephine, don’t worry about her."

"...Uh, it’s almost morning, you should go get some sleep too!" Josephine Thompson couldn’t help but yawn and turned to go back to sleep.

She usually led a very regular life.

Seldom did she have to get up in the middle of the night.

Julian Grant, afraid she’d misunderstand, wanted to explain, "Josephine."

Josephine Thompson stopped, looked at him calmly, "Hmm, what is it?"

Julian Grant’s handsome face showed a mix of emotions, "Josephine, you’re not angry, are you?"

"No, why would I be angry?"

Julian Grant felt a sharp pain in his heart, "I... I did date her for a while before. But it was long ago, and after we broke up, we had no further relations."

Josephine Thompson listened absentmindedly and said softly, "Oh~, that’s your private matter. You handle it yourselves."

She yawned again after speaking.

"It’s almost morning, really should go to sleep."

Seeing her indifferent reaction, 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Julian Grant felt even more sour, "Josephine, do you really not care at all?"

Josephine Thompson looked puzzled, "Why should I care?"

"..." Julian Grant felt a sourness in his heart, like swallowing two lemons.

It seems she really doesn’t care about him!

"Josephine, I... after returning home this time, I’ve... I’ve..."

He wanted to tell her,

he had cut off all ambiguous relationships. Moreover, he was tired of playing around and wouldn’t anymore.

He planned to seriously pursue her.

Yet when the words reached his lips, he couldn’t say them.

"Already what?"

Julian Grant gave a sheepish smile, "Haha~, already... turned over a new leaf, I’m a brand new man."

Josephine Thompson listened, still with a calm expression, "Oh~, get some sleep."

With that, she turned and walked to her room.

Julian Grant watched her back, feeling even more sour.

If only he had cherished this relationship four years ago.

How great would that be?

Unfortunately...

Four years ago, he was only 23, not grounded at all, and not planning on marrying anytime soon. He was still curious about the colorful world, unable to resist the temptations around him.

Now, he wasn’t sure if he could resist those temptations, but he wanted to try.

"Josephine, I want to challenge myself, to stay with you forever..."

...

The next day.

Nathaniel Gallagher woke up and immediately checked his phone messages.

Sure enough.

She had sent another message:

[Awake yet? Missed you, missed you, missed you all night long]

Reading the message, Nathaniel Gallagher’s lips curved into a deep smile.

[Yeah, I’m up! Got a meeting this morning, flying to the airport in the afternoon. Baby, hubby misses you too]

After sending the message,

Nathaniel Gallagher felt a youthful exuberance he hadn’t felt in ages.

After all, his character was steady and reserved, sparing with words. Even during meetings, he was concise and to the point.

Spending a night exchanging sweet texts was unheard of.

After washing up,

Nathaniel Gallagher donned his favorite suit, even shaving his stubble meticulously.

At nine in the morning, he went into the conference room for a meeting.

Inside the meeting room,

all the shareholders and executives were waiting early. Everyone sat upright, not daring to slack off.

After all, President Gallagher had been in a foul mood recently. If crossed, he could fly into a rage.

Thus, everyone was apprehensive, each fearful and cautious.

"President Gallagher’s here, President Gallagher’s here."

Hearing this, the shareholders straightened up even more, their eyes lowered, fearing they’d catch President Gallagher’s attention.

"Clack!"

The assistant pushed open the meeting room door.

Nathaniel Gallagher strode in with his long legs, greeting everyone first for a change, "Good morning, everyone."

"Good morning, President Gallagher."

Today,

because he was in a good mood,

Nathaniel Gallagher was full of spirit, friendly and kind.

During the meeting, he spoke softly, with a smile on his lips, patiently listening to the executives’ reports.

After the meeting ended,

the shareholders couldn’t help but wonder, "Why is President Gallagher so happy today? He’s been smiling the whole time."

"Yeah, he seems to be in a great mood. Is he planning to acquire another listed company?"

"I don’t know, haven’t heard of any large investment projects currently!"

As soon as Nathaniel Gallagher walked out of the meeting room, he immediately took out his phone to check messages.

Josephine Thompson had sent him several waking-up photos, looking adorably sleepy-eyed.

[Missed you all night, still want to see some pictures, send me a few more, okay?]
