Chapter 176 I Dont Know Him
Nina was holding a new lunch box in her hand, a gentle smile on her face. She knew that John had already come back from his meeting when she saw Henry.
She cheerfully approached him, but her steps faltered as she saw something wrong with Henry's expression.
"What's happened?"
Henry didn't dare to look at Nina. "Mrs. Shi, Mr. Shi hasn't come back yet."
Henry lied to her.
Nina could tell at a single glance.
Since Henry lied, something shady must be going on in the office.
Then, Nina heard a familiar female voice and name.
"John, Vivi and I have come to see you." Jessica took a thermos from Vivian's hand. "This is the chicken soup, which I had my chef prepare especially for you. Eat it while it's still warm."
At the last family dinner, Jessica realized that her rudeness had resulted in dissatisfaction among their family members. After her husband's repeated persuasion, she had personally apologized to her father and sister-in-law.
They had already forgiven her.
Now, she came here to apologize to her brother.
Jessica was so keen on saving face that she did not want to just apologize directly to the wronged party. She only wanted to mollify them in other ways.
All of her family members knew her well. A vis
n. Nina is Mr. Shi's wife, so how could she not know his preferences? "
"I'm his sister. How can I not know? He's always had a low tolerance for spice even as a child. My father would ban the chefs from preparing spicy food whenever John is at the table. I can't be wrong about this." Jessica's temper flared so easily.
"I think it's Nina's fault. Either she did it on purpose, or she doesn't know John at all. Why did you marry a woman like her? She doesn't care for you at all. Who does she think she is?"
"Enough!" John put down the bowl he was holding and slammed a palm on the table.
The office fell silent.
Outside John's office, Nina couldn't see anything, but she heard every word exchanged inside.
She lowered her eyes and asked Henry in a subdued voice, "He doesn't like spicy food, does he?"
Stunned, Henry failed to answer.
She took his silence for a yes.
She blinked her eyes, chucked the lunch box in her hand into the nearest trash bin, and said calmly, "I'm going back."
As it turned out, she didn't know him at all.
"Mrs. Shi..." Henry called out, but Nina didn't come back.
He threw a sideways glance at the door of the president's office and sighed.
Jessica and Vivian had done something terrible.
