Chapter 91
Mr. Sallow's Sinful Wife by Maisie Chasey
Chapter 91 Picking Up Nancy Under Heavy Rain Nancy felt she heard Nicholasâ voice last night.
However, the bed next to her was neat. It didnât look like anyone had slept on it.
She reached out to touch it, and it was ice cold.
She must be overthinking. It might just be an illusion.
When Nancy went downstairs, Nicholas had already gone to work. A sumptuous breakfast was prepared on the table.
When they just got married, Nicholas hired a few nannies. However, Nancy didnât like strangers at home. Hence, they were only hired as part-time nannies.
They came regularly to clean the house and cook.
They would leave after finishing their work.
But today, Peggy hadnât left yet.
While Nancy was eating breakfast, a strong aroma came from the kitchen. It seemed someone was cooking in the kitchen.
At this time, Peggy came out. âMrs. Sallow, please eat some more. Youâre too skinny.â
âMr. Sallow told me to prepare a sumptuous meal daily, especially some nutritious. to eat more and take good care of your body.
âDid he personally give the order?â Nancy was a little surprised.
soup. You have Peggy nodded repeatedly. âYeah, Mr. Sallow even gave me a raise. He asked me to serve you well and fulfil all needs.â
âI see.â Nancy nodded.
Afterwards, Nancy drank a bowl of soup under Peggyâs advice.
After breakfast, Nancy felt bored, so she picked up a book. At this time, she received a call from the hospital.
The hospital informed her that she had passed the interview and could start working there on Monday.
After hanging up the phone, Nancy was thrilled.
1/5 She opened WhatsApp and typed: âI passed the interview at the hospital. Iâm so happy.â
However, when she saw âNicholasâ name on WhatsApp, she instantly deleted all the words.
Then, she put down her phone.
Maybe she was used to it.
That was why she was excited when she heard the news and immediately wanted to share it with Nicholas.
She needed to get rid of this habit.
After changing her clothes, Nancy went to her motherâs cemetery.
Itâs been a while, and she couldnât wait to share this good news with her mother.
Her mother surely would be happy for her.
When she got out of the car, Nancy received a call from Nicholas.
Nancy picked up the call and just kept silent.
Nicholas took the initiative to speak. âI heard youâve passed the interview at the hospital. Congratulations!â
âThank you!â
Nancy replied politely. They seemed particularly distant.
They acted as if there was an invisible barrier between them.
Previously, Nancy usually tried to remove any barriers between them and walk through them.
Nevertheless, this time, Nancy was too tired.
Nancy had no more courage to remove the barriers and walk through them.
âWhen do you start working?â
âOn Monday.â
After replying, Nancy continued, âIf nothing else, Iâll hang up.â
Nicholas said hurriedly, âWait, I still have something to say!â
âIâll go home to pick up some documents later and have lunch with you.â
2/5 âOh.â Nancy responded calmly and continued, âYou can let Lynn come to get it.â
âI think that is inconvenient. Itâs in our bedroom.â
âItâs okay, I donât mind.â
Hearing this, Nicholas immediately gripped his phone tightly.
Something was running amok in his heart.
I donât mind?
She said she didnât mind.
That was their bedroom. When they got married, Nancy wouldnât even let the nanny enter their bedroom. She always cleaned it by herself.
But now, she even didnât mind a guy entering their bedroom.
Nicholas didnât dare to think further about why Nancy acted this way.
âBut I mind.â Nicholas lowered his voice and almost gritted his teeth.
âOh.â
Nancy was still very calm. She looked at the time and said, âIf thatâs the case, Iâll go back soon. Let me know where you put the document, and Iâll hand it to Lynn.â
Nicholas frowned. âYouâre not at home? Are you outside?â
âYeah, I came to the cemetery to see my mother. I havenât seen her in a long time.â
âDonât worry. Iâll be home before noon.â
After saying that, Nancy hung up the phone without waiting for Nicholasâ reply.
Nicholas was lost in thought when he heard the beeping sound.
At this time, a weather notification appeared on his phone.
Lynn also came in to report, âMr. Sallow, it may be heavy rain soon. Should we rearrange the schedule?â
Nicholas nodded. âYes, please do that.â
âBy the way, please get me a bigger umbrella.â
A car could only reach outside the cemetery and couldnât go inside.
3/5 Moreover, her motherâs tombstone was quite far from the entrance. She would need an umbrella if it rained heavily.
After going out for a while, Lynn returned and immediately handed Nicholas the umbrella.
Nicholas took the umbrella and went directly to the elevator. At the same time, he ordered, âPlease cancel all the appointments for the afternoon schedule.â
âMr. Sallow, are you going out?â Lynn finally realized.
âYeah, Iâll drive myself. You donât need to follow.â
âBut itâs going to rain heavily soon. Itâs very dangerous to drive. Mr. Sallow, why donât until the rain stops?â
âI have to go now. It will be too late when the rain stops.â
Nicholas took the elevator directly to the underground garage.
you wait When she arrived at the cemetery, Nancy brought a bouquet of chrysanthemums. She placed them gently in front of her motherâs tombstone, then sat down.
âMom, Iâm here to see you. Sorry, itâs been a while.â
âA lot of things happened recently, and Iâm so confused. I was thrilled when I found out I was pregnant. But Nicholas asked for a divorce and was not excited about the child.â
âI also didnât dare to tell you about Grandpaâs death.â
âMom, I dreamed about you last night. How nice would it be if you were still here? I wonât be scared of divorce. Even if I get divorced, my family still loves and supports me.â
At this moment, Nancy inevitably became emotional.
Nancy rubbed her eyes and immediately smiled. âMom, I have good news for you. Iâll start working in a hospital as an intern.â
âDonât worry. Iâll work hard so I can become a doctor after graduation.â
Suddenly, thunder struck from the sky, although the sun still shone.
Nancy didnât take it seriously at first.
However, there were several claps of thunder strike afterwards.
Nancy took out her mobile phone and saw the rainstorm alert on it.
It was going to rain heavily. She had to go back immediately.
4/5 But this place was quite remote. If there were heavy rain, no car would be willing to come.
Nancy walked down the mountain anxiously.
At this moment, a warm and familiar voice suddenly heard from behind. âNancy?â
