Chapter 568
The expression on Huey’s face changed at once.
“Is this how you talk to your partner?” he asked with a more sullen look.
“Mr. Layton, as an employee of Moran Group, I can tolerate you at work. But if you want to insult someone important to me, that’s a different story. I won’t allow it. After all, it’s my private life and has nothing to do with my job.”
Corbin’s words were undoubtedly threatening Huey. At the same time, it was also a declaration that Nana was a very important person to him.
Of course, Nana also heard what he said. She was so shocked that she raised her head and stared blankly at his face.
Someone important to him…
Was he referring to her?
When Huey saw the expectant look on Nana’s face, he was even angrier. But he didn’t intend to give up. Instead, he insisted, “Mr. Jenkins, as far as I know, you were only pretending to be Nana’s boyfriend back then. So, what is the meaning of this? Are you going to fall out with me because of her?”
Corbin lowered his head, looked at Nana, and smiled at her gently.
Then he turned to look at Huey with eyes full of determination.
“Huey, I am a person who values relationships. If I really don’t have feelings for her, I won’t have anything to do with her. I wouldn’t even agree to pretend to be her boyfriend. That’s all I want you to keep in mind. I have nothing else to say. Nana, let’s go!”
At this moment, Nana couldn’t hear anything except the sound of her own heartbeat. And as joy and excitement filled her heart, her heartbeat got faster and faster.
Huey was the exact opposite. As soon as Corbin finished speaking, he was outraged.
“Corbin, you are deliberately going against me, right? Do I have to remind you why you’re here? If you dare to take Nana away today, the cooperation between Moran Group and Layton Group is over.”
Huey threatened Corbin, but the latter didn’t show even the slightest fear at all. Instead, he sneered coldly, “Mr. Layton, you should tell that directly to Mr. Moran’s face.”
Then he grabbed the stunned Nana’s hand and walked out of the room.
She didn’t resist, letting him lead her out of the room that suffocated her.
Nana had never seen Corbin like this before. He was so domineering and decisive that it moved her and gave her an incomparable sense of security.
When they got outside, a gust of cold wind blew. Nana was not wearing much, so she couldn’t help shivering. Corbin noticed it. He immediately took off his coat and put it on her.
As he wrapped it around her shoulders, he reminded her, “From now on, you have to be more careful. Don’t go on occasions like this alone. You are a woman, and it’s dangerous…”
“Is what you said just now true?” Nana suddenly interrupted Corbin’s chatter. She stared at him and repeated, “Corbin, do you mean what you have said in there?”
His hands froze on her shoulders for a moment. It was as if he was contemplating. Then with a determined look, he stared at her and said solemnly, “Yes, I meant what I said. I like you.”
Corbin’s words were like music to Nana’s ears. He really liked her!
His words got into her heart. She felt a lump in her throat, and tears welled up in her eyes.
When Corbin saw Nana’s reaction, he didn’t know what to do. He thought he had said something wrong, so he added hastily, “Don’t cry. You don’t have to rush to answer me. Take your time. I can wait.”
At this moment, Corbin was a completely different person. He was like a clumsy child.
“Idiot!” Nana couldn’t help laughing. “I can answer you now. I like you, too.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she didn’t give Corbin any chance to react. She stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips.
There was no anger or jealousy in her kiss. It was just pure joy and admiration.
They could not extricate themselves from the kiss. As their lips and tongue intertwined, their feelings for each other grew.
While they were so immersed in their intimacy, Corbin’s phone rang, interrupting them.
It must be Maurice.
Corbin had no choice but to end the kiss. When they separated, the two of them were out of breath.
He took out his phone and was about to answer it. But Nana canceled it.
He looked at her in confusion. She just smiled at him charmingly. “Idiot, it’s not working hours now. Don’t mind him,” Nana said and kissed him again.
In an instant, Corbin couldn’t think of anything else. He was totally lost in the kiss.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
