Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 817

Nora heard what Mrs. Long said the moment she stepped out of her house in the morning.

She frowned, wanting to say something. But when she looked over, she saw Rene hiding at the window of her house. She was staring nervously at Liam, her eyes fixed on him as if she was afraid that he would not want her anymore.

She was so nervous that her hands were tightly wrung, but she didn't have the courage to call out to him, interrupt Mrs. Long, or argue with her.

Her hair was still dirty and greasy because she was unwilling to wash it and the clothes she wore were old and worn out. Her head was constantly down and she looked like she didn't have any confidence at all.

It wouldn't even be surprising if she was mistaken as a beggar when she walked down the streets.

Someone like her certainly seemed out of place next to Liam.

On the other side, Mrs. Long was still talking. "Rene is a piece of trash. Besides, she has been abused by her adoptive parents since she was a child!. Liam, you shouldn't throw away your future because of someone like her!"

Liam sighed. The cheerful man said, "I'm not going to leave Rene."

His firm voice made Rene's eyes overflow with happiness.

Mrs. Long wasn't pleased, though. "How come you can't even distinguish between something good and bad? Your family will never accept a wife like her! Did your parents raise you just to let you marry a good-for-nothing like her?"

Liam sighed. "She's not a good-for-nothing!"

Liam walked towards the gates. "I'm going to work. I'll be late if I stay any longer."

However, Mrs. Long grabbed his sleeve. "Liam, listen to me, my niece..."

"Is your niece so ugly she can't even find a man by herself?"

Nora's light words interrupted Mrs. Long's boasting of her niece. She was stunned for a moment, and then she abruptly turned to look at Nora. "What a busybody! Mind your own business!"

Nora smiled sarcastically.

Mrs. Long retracted her outstretched arm. Having failed to achieve her goal, Mrs. Long was very indignant. She snorted coldly. "Liam, I will give you your options here and now. The first: Stay with that beggar and get fired today!

"Second, break up with that pushover and I will let bygones be bygones. My son will take care of you in NTT, so you will definitely rise through the ranks!"

Nora also looked at Liam.

Liam sighed helplessly and shook his head. "I told you, I will never abandon Rene."

After saying that, Liam went straight out the door.

Mrs. Long yelled angrily, "Fine, you refuse to choose, right? What an ingrate, you can just wait for my son to fire you!"

Liam ignored her completely and walked away.

Mrs. Long stomped her foot angrily. When she turned and saw the smile on Nora's lips, she suddenly became annoyed. "What are you laughing at? He's going to be fired all because of you! He is being chauvinistic now, so he won't blame you for it yet, but what about in the future? When he thinks of how he once had a great future waiting for him yet it was shattered because of you, do you think he won't blame you for it in the future?"

Nora ignored the lunatic.

She had already notified Cindy to evict Mrs. Long and drive them away.

Nora, who couldn't be bothered to talk to her, simply walked out the door without even a side-glance.

Liam walked down the road, his head down.
