Chapter 1137 - 1136: Liking You Is My Own Business
If Young Master Peary wanted to mess with Hazel Quartz, he wouldn’t be doing it this way.
Is he now the kind of person who would be interested in dealing with Edbert’s Wath Company issues?
He probably can’t wait for Hazel to come back and sell the company’s information.
"So it was you who did it, you..."
The words "company parasite" already let Nia Mitchell know what Hazel is facing.
She wanted to ask more, but didn’t know how to start.
"It’s nothing. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go now."
Saying this, Nia Mitchell wanted to leave, but Edbert stopped her.
"Hazel must have told you something. If you refuse to say, I don’t mind calling those secretaries by your side, one by one, to ask."
Edbert didn’t want to see Nia Mitchell like this, so he spoke up immediately.
His words completely forced Nia.
Nia’s face instantly turned ugly as she looked straight into his eyes.
"Do you really need to know?"
Is it really necessary?
"Yes!"
He wants to know, anything that can affect Nia must be significant.
Nia stood there and suddenly started to laugh.
"She said you like me, your phone is full of my photos, dare you let me see your phone?"
Nia suddenly said this quickly and kept staring at Edbert.
Edbert was stunned!
He did not expect Hazel to say such a thing.
He knew he should retort, argue back, clearly deny, and then show her his phone.
But...
He couldn’t do it.
Because his phone indeed contained her photos.
So many...
He really does like her.
The whole office room suddenly fell into silence, only the sounds of their breathing.
Edbert didn’t know what to say, so he kept pondering.
And just this silence alone was the best answer for Nia.
So...
It’s true.
She had been telling herself that Hazel was speaking nonsense, that this was absolutely impossible.
She and Edbert are only friends!
Just friends!
"Edbert, I feel it’s necessary for me to leave."
She is married, she married Maxwell Peary, she...
She doesn’t know the reason for leaving, but it is really necessary.
After saying this, she turned around to leave.
But...
Edbert grabbed her arm.
"You don’t have to leave, is it just because I like you that you want to leave?"
What kind of reasoning is that?
Hearing Edbert straightforwardly say he likes her, Nia felt even more panicked.
She simply couldn’t offer any response, so...
So...
"My liking you is my own business, not related to you, you don’t need to carry any burden."
Of course, Edbert knew her thoughts, so he spoke immediately.
If it weren’t for Hazel speaking out of turn, he would never have told her in his lifetime.
"I..."
"Nia!"
Edbert interrupted her, standing right in front of her.
"Don’t be so cruel, don’t even reject this. I don’t expect you to reply to my feelings, I won’t ruin things between you and Young Master Peary, is that still not okay?"
He just hopes she can consider him as a friend, share both happy and unhappy things together.
Is this request too much?
"If one day, you ask me to take you away, I would surely agree."
