Chapter 310 I Dont Like Roses
In the middle of signing multiple documents, John was interrupted by a phone call. As soon as he picked it up, he didn't say anything and placed the phone on top of his table with its loud speaker on before continuing to sign the last document with a fountain pen.
Hearing nothing from John, James rolled his eyes and expected this. As a matter of fact, he was already used to this. Without waiting for a greeting, he asked, "Uncle John, have you forgotten what day it is today?"
James stayed silent as he waited for a reply. When he only heard the sound of pen writing on paper, he felt anxious. "Damn it," he muttered under his breath. "Really, Uncle John? Today is a day for lovers! Did you know that Aunt Nina is with Noah today? He even gave her a rose."
James waited once more and felt satisfied that he got John's attention, because the sound of pen on paper suddenly stopped. Finally, John looked up at the phone and squinted at it.
"But it's not July 7th or Feb 14th today," he said cheaply.
"Who told you that only July 7th and Feb 14th are for lovers? If you haven't noticed, today is May 20th. It's 520. Don't tell me you also forgot that Aunt Nina transferred 5,200 to you so she could confess to you before! Uncle John, 520 means 'I love you,'" James said with a sigh.
John immediately picked the phone up and turned off the loudspeaker. He placed the phone on his ear and clenched his fingers tightly on the phone, asking, "Where is she?"
"I will send the location to you right now." James immediately ended the call and sent the address to John. Then, he sent a message to his fr
er, waiting for her to get in.
Nina gave John a smile before she got in and settled in her seat. She turned to him and said, "Today's May 20th, a day for loves, honey."
John gave her a quick glance without saying anything.
She knew it, and yet she still went out to have dinner with another man.
John turned his gaze on the rearview mirror and ordered coldly, "Drive."
"Yes, Mr. Shi," Henry replied and started to drive. He took a quick glance at the rearview mirror as he felt the tension in the atmosphere turn a little bit less subtle. Because of that, he did not dare breathe heavily and stayed as calm as possible.
Nine frowned and also realized that John was angry, but she didn't know why he was angry for no reason. She wondered what wrong she could have done to him and thought about it for a moment. Then again, she knew that she didn't do anything that would make him mad.
She looked down on the rose in her hand. The drops of water had finally dried, but the fragrance of the rose still lingered in her nose.
Nina turned to John and handed him the rose. "Here you go," she said with a smile.
John gave a quick side glance before turning his eyes on his window side. "I don't like roses." John felt uncomfortable. His fists started to clench at the thought that it was a flower that Noah gave his wife.
What was the point of his wife accepting the flower from another man?
Even worse, his wife was handing it to him.
'No,' John thought, not wanting to tolerate this situation.
Trying to control his frustration, John loosened his tie, not giving the rose a look.
