?Chapter 1066:
Yvonne felt slightly embarrassed when she heard him say this. “You should go ahead. I’ll head out once I’m done.”
“Go ahead and finish. I have some work left to tackle as well. We can keep each otherpany.”
Yvonne smiled and turned her focus back to her work.
The two worked in silence for a while until Yvonne finally wrapped up her tasks.
Afterpleting her work, she stretched and looked up to find that Ethan was still busy. “You’re still here? You’re reallymitted!” she joked.
“I’m just following your lead.” When Ethan noticed her gathering her things, he closed hisptop and got ready to leave together.
They chatted about work as they walked down the stairs.
The moment Yvonne walked out of the building, she caught sight of Norton’s car parked a little ways off, clearly there for her. A wave of joy swept over her before she could stop it. So Norton really intended to pick her up after work?
She picked up her pace, and Ethan fell into step beside her.
Norton had been waiting in the car for hours, and now he was growing impatient.
What kind of job made her workte every night? This was getting out of hand!
He clenched his fists in irritation.
After a moment to calm himself, he reminded himself that as long as she was happy, that was all that truly mattered.
He opened hisptop, thinking he might as well get some work done. Yet, he barely made any progress before snapping it shut again, restless. What if Yvonne came out, and he missed her? What if, like before, she didn’t recognize his car?
He spent a good while gazing out the car window in silence. Atst, he lowered it and fixed his eyes on the office building. Time crawled on, and still, there was no sign of Yvonne.
Feelings of doubt crept in as he wondered if they had somehow missed each other.
He checked his phone. All the messages he had sent her remained unanswered.
Finish the chapters at g???????ν????s. ??o??
He looked up at the building, knowing Yvonne worked on the sixteenth floor. Only that floor was still lit.
He fixated on the illuminated window, and eventually, the lights on the sixteenth floor turned off.
Relief washed over him, yet as he waited longer, Yvonne still didn’te out. He picked up his phone and sent her another message. “Come out quickly. Or have you left already?” Still, no answer came from Yvonne.
Just as his impatience peaked, the driver, who had also been watching the building, remarked, “Sir, is that Mrs. Burke over there?”
