Chapter 921
Always Been Yours
Chapter 921 Relentless Woman Eunice didnât even look surprised, as if she had already known that Nicholas was married. His expression darkened in an instant.
âCome with me.â With that, he pulled Eunice to the side.
Seeing that, Addison smiled apologetically at Nicholas. âDonât mind them, President Sawyer. Theyâre always like that.â
Nicholas slightly lowered his gaze, not answering. Addison smiled awkwardly, then hastily changed the subject, continuing the conversation that was interrupted before. âPresident Sawyer, what are the requirements for the project you mentioned earlier?â
âThere are quite a few of them, actually.â
At the mention of business, Nicholas began discussing the matter earnestly. Edward also cooperated from the side.
Meanwhile, Walter pulled Eunice to a quiet spot before letting her go and questioning her, âWhat exactly is going on here?â
âWhat is going on where?â
Eunice knew what her father wanted to ask about, but she feigned ignorance.
Walter knew what his daughter was thinking, so he said in all seriousness, âQuit pretending. Iâm asking you if you know that Nicholas is already married?â
âYes, I did.â
âAnd you still told me youâre eyeing him?!â
Walter instantly glared at Eunice in a fury, warning her, âI donât care how you used to fool around, but youâd better steer clear of married men, especially Nicholas! Donât you dare mess with him!â
âWhatâs wrong with that? Itâs just some harmless play, so you donât have to be so serious.â Eunice pouted playfully, not taking her fatherâs words seriously.
Hearing his daughterâs tone, Walter frowned in extreme disdain. âHarmless play? Donât you care about your reputation anymore?â Oh, Eunice! I canât take this anymore! You better behave this time!
However, Eunice didnât even listen as she waved her hand in annoyance. âEnough, Daddy, youâve said all those things before. I know when to stop, so stop minding my business.â
Walter glared at Eunice, not knowing what to say for a moment.
In the end, he still couldnât do anything about Eunice, so he gave up on reprimanding her. He gave her a few customary warnings before leaving.
After all, his daughter had always been fooling around, but she hadnât run into serious trouble before. Hence, for the rest of the party, Eunice tried every way she could think of to get closer to Nicholas.
Nicholas didnât want to cause a ruckus, so he took Edward with him as he tried his best to avoid her.
No matter what, Eunice was Tessaâs senior, and he didnât want to cause Tessa any trouble. Despite that, Eunice still kept going to him.
âMr. Sawyer, why would you avoid me to this extent? We do know each other, but youâre being too cruel by doing this.â
As she spoke, she struck as many seductive poses as possible, attracting the gazes of many men around her. Sensing those gazes, she thought she was extremely attractive at that moment, so she kept giving Nicholas alluring looks.
Unbeknownst to her, Nicholas was disgusted with her at that point. Standing at the side, Edward had no words to describe his emotions then because this was his first time seeing such a relentless woman.
While he was deep in thought, he heard his presidentâs extremely cold voice speaking.
âLetâs go, Edward.â
Nicholas didnât want to see Eunice at all.
Eunice, on the other hand, was stunned as she watched the man leave so decisively.
Heâs leaving just like that? She instantly dropped her seductive act and frowned deeply. The other men around her were clearly swooning over her, so logically speaking, this man shouldnât behave like this.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and her frown disappeared at once. She felt that Nicholas must be giving her the cold shoulder on purpose.
After all, people from Xerthania were known to be a little more reserved. At that thought, she looked in the direction Nicholas left, a confident look in her eyes. âNo matter what, Iâll have you submit to me tonight.â
With that, she pursued Nicholasâ footsteps once again and came to the balcony.
âMr. Sawyer, how can you leave me alone just like that? This is unbecoming of a gentleman.â
Eunice smiled as she neared Nicholas. Without even waiting for him to reply, she reached out and placed her fingertip nonchalantly on Nicholasâ shirt right above his chest, tracing circles on it.
