“Nancy, you’ve bought a lot of things. Are you sure you can wear all these?” Grabbing Nancy’s arms, Joan reminded her.
I’ve to buy them even if I’m not wearing them!
A wry smile crossed Nancy’s face.
I’ve to max out Jory’s credit card!
“Why should I worry? I’m not spending my own money anyway!” Nancy patted Joan’s shoulder gently.
Could it be…
Joan suddenly understood what was on Nancy’s mind.
In that case, you can go ahead! After all, the money that men have earned is meant for women to spend!
Meanwhile, Jory was reading some documents in his office.
A moment later, his phone buzzed from time to time, indicating that he received text messages.
Jory was curious but initially thought that those were some marketing messages. Shortly afterward, he was shocked as he began reading the messages.
Jory’s lips curled into a wry smile when he realized that they were about his credit card transactions.
This woman is really naughty. She always wishes to max out my card every time she’s upset. Despite knowing that Nancy was on a spending spree, Jory was happy to spend the money for her.
Thump!
Suddenly, Dustin opened the office and stood before Jory, panting.
“What’s up?” Jory looked at Dustin worriedly.
Dustin always remains calm and composed, yet why does he look so nervous this time? Besides, he didn’t even knock on the door before coming in. I mean, this is not how he usually behaves.
“Hey, Jory, what did you do today?” Dustin asked.
Jory looked at Dustin bewilderedly.
Since when did he begin to be mindful of what I did every day?
“I’m working and happen to be reading some documents now,” Jory shrugged his shoulder and replied blandly.
Is that all? It can’t be!
Dustin came up to Jory slowly while glaring at him with blazing eyes.
“Hey, just shoot if you want to say something. And what is that look on your face?” Jory shot a disgruntled gaze at him.
“Okay, I’ll get to the point then. Nancy said you’ve another woman and left her,” Dustin said softly.
When did Nancy see it?
Jory’s eyes dimmed in the next instance.
I haven’t settled a score with her for not coming home and answering my calls yesterday, yet she is accusing me of wrongdoing now?
All women are preposterous creatures!
“What do you think?” Jory looked at Dustin.
“I think it’s impossible. There’s no way you would do that,” Dustin said as though he trusted Jory.
Deep in Dustin’s heart, he actually had some doubts. He thought that men could make mistakes, particularly when their loved ones weren’t around.
As he was deep in thought, he also observed the changes in Jory’s facial expressions.
Fortunately, Jory’s reactions told him that he didn’t do such a thing. Hence, Dustin believed there was certainly some misunderstanding between them.
“That’s enough. Stop messing with me. Besides, I’m busy and have a lot more documents to read.” Jory waved his hand.
“Alright. I’ll take my leave now,” Dustin replied smilingly.
“Oh, wait a minute,” Jory suddenly stopped Dustin.
What’s up? Dustin turned around and eyed the man not far from him curiously.
“Well, tell Nancy to call me if she has maxed out her credit card. I can give her a few more cards.” With that, Jory handed over two credit cards to Dustin.
Dustin was stunned as though he was struck by lightning.
He’s the dream man of every woman!
Free free to swipe the cards! Nancy’s an idiot! She should have cherished him!
“Mr. Synder, I want to swipe your cards too,” Dustin deliberately said coquettishly.
“Damn it, that’s gross. Get on with your work now,” Jory rejected him straightforwardly.
Humph! He values romance over friendship!
Dustin then turned and made himself scarce.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind when he was leaving.
“Hello, Joan, where are you guys now?” Dustin whispered over the phone.
“We’re in the mall,” Joan answered softly.
“I see. Send your location to me, and I’ll be there as soon as possible.”
“Why do you want to come here?” Joan asked cautiously.
“Jory asked me to send two more credit cards to you guys, for he was worried that Nancy would max out her credit card,” Dustin replied.
