Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 885

No matter how highly Karl valued the opportunity, he simply couldn't let Nora take such a risk.

Even though he and Ian always dickered the moment they saw each other, deep down, they still greatly admired and respected each other. Putting aside the fact that he and Ian both held each other in high esteem, just the relationship between Tanya and Nora alone was already...

Karl thought of how Tanya had reacted when he called to ask her to get in touch with Nora for him. His daughter had kept asking things like: "Is it dangerous?", "Are you sure it won't be dangerous?", "Is there no danger at all?", and so on. Karl had guaranteed that he would never let Nora get even a scratch in the incident.

Now that things had turned out like this, who knew what the Hitman League might do to them?

If Nora got hurt, how was he going to answer to his daughter?

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Karl decided that he'd rather miss the opportunity to clean up the company's act and go into the light than risk having anything happen to Nora.

But unexpectedly, when he was about to hang up the phone, Nora instead said, "No, it's fine. The mission will continue as planned!"

Karl was surprised. "What?" "All right, that settles it. See you tomorrow." After hanging up the phone, Nora played with the three little fellows for a while and then went to bed early at eight o'clock in the evening.

Cherry and Pete had long since become accustomed to her going to bed early, but Xander felt that his mommy wasn't spending enough time with him and he still wanted to play some more with Nora.

Even if Nora didn't say anything but just patted his head, he still felt especially happy.

But the woman was now lying there motionless and had gone into a deep sleep after just a mere two minutes. He curled his lips unhappily and muttered with discontent, "How come she sleeps so much?"

Cherry continued gaming without even raising her head as she replied, "Geniuses need a lot of sleep!"

The moment she said that, Pete nodded in agreement.

In the game, Chester was also very approving of the statement. He said, "Yeah, come to think of it, Justin always slept more than others since he was a child. He needed nine hours of sleep a day. Later, when my father scolded me for being such a bum and told me to learn from Justin, I also started to sleep nine hours a day."

Cherry was surprised. "And then?"

Chester replied, "He slept for nine hours a day, so I also slept for nine hours a day. Justin didn't fold the quilt, so I also didn't fold the quilt. After he woke up, he started to study, so I watched him study. He was terrifying once he started studying; sometimes, he could even study for a whole day! I was also very impressive—I could watch him for a whole day! And now I can also play games an entire day!"

The three little ones:

Chester grinned and said, "But it's fine. I'm just an ordinary person, so it's not really an issue. Look at how busy Justin was... Besides, smart people have to shoulder a lot of responsibilities. He took over the family business when he was only 18, unlike me, who can still afford to be here and play games, even though I'm already 22 years old. Right?"
