“Mrs. Synder, what brings you here?” Jory's assistant uttered in shock when the woman showed up at the office.
“Where's Jory?” Nancy demanded to know.
“Mr. Synder is attending a social event at the moment. Didn't he tell you?” replied the assistant.
“Where? Give me the address! Don't tell Jory I was here!” Nancy got what she wanted and swiftly left the building, stomping her platform heels.
The assistant was still in a state of confusion as she watched the woman storm out.
It's a bar! Why are they having it in a bar? What's Jory doing in a bar? Why would anyone discuss
business in a bar?
Nancy frowned as she stared at the message she had received, her expression a distorted one.
Jory, if you've really betrayed me, I won't let you get away with it!
In one of the private rooms, Jory was busy socializing with other men. He had no idea of the danger that would soon befall him. His assistant tried calling him many times but he ignored the ringing of his phone.
Around them sat several beautiful women with alluring figures in sexy attire. The scene would only add fuel to the flames of Nancy's jealousy later on.
Bang! The door was forcefully kicked open.
Everyone's attention turned toward the entrance.
Nancy was not afraid at all as she announced her arrival, walked straight up to Jory, and sat herself down.
“Why are you here?” Jory glared suspiciously at the woman, his anger slowly boiling.
Oh, am I not welcomed? Or are you hiding something from me?
“Why can't I? I'm here to accompany my husband at his social event. Is that so wrong?” Nancy asked as she surveyed the other men in the room.
“No, of course not. We'd be more than happy to have you, Ms. Barrymore.”
