The Good Girl's Revenge

Sheldon touched his neck and spread out his hand. The blood dazzled his eyes.

At this moment, he had no doubt that if he hadn't dodged just now, his head would be broken by such a large piece of glass. Realizing that Sean was being serious, he was immediately frightened. "Uncle, I was wrong. It's all my fault. Please forgive me. I promise, it won't happen again.”

If Nora was there, she would be shocked to see Sheldon to be such a coward.

Sean said with a gloomy look "Next time? Do you think you still have a chance?"

"There's a chance, uncle. Believe me. No matter what happened, I've been taking good care of Nora for the past five years. Before Derek showed up, she had been very dependent on me."

"I believe that as long as I have some time, I promise that Nora would feel the same way about me as before. I mean it, uncle. Please give me another chance.”

Sean snorted and looked at him for a long time without saying anything. When Sheldon thought there was no hope, he finally said.

"In that case, I'll give you another chance. Remember, this is the last time. If you still can't do what you promised, then the Joneses will kick you out of the Jones family completely.”

Sheldon glared at Sean in disbelief.

"Uncle, you..."

He wondered what did he mean by getting out of the Joneses. Sheldon looked into Sean's eyes, and he was filled with dread.

He was really scared. He never thought that things would turn out to be so awful. He never thought that his uncle would be so cruel to an outsider.

Although he was a subsidiary of the Joneses, he was also a young master of the branch of the Joneses. Now whether he would be kicked out of the Joneses depended on a woman. How ridiculous!

He lifted the corners of his mouth, but he failed to force a smile. What's more, he did not dare to show even a trace of dissatisfaction.

In the past, he had always thought that whether he could marry that woman was only related to his future interests, but now it seemed things were not as simple as he thought.

If he couldn't get Nora change her mind, he, as the big young master of the Joneses, would be left with nothing.

It was the worst nightmare for Sheldon. At this moment, he no longer afforded to take chances. All he could think about was how to win Nora's heart again.

Nora, who was involved in all this, did not know.

Ever since her reputation for plagiarism was saved, she had been promoted by Derek. She was no longer an ordinary designer for the Design Department.

It was different now. She was the design director of the B Department.

Although she had been demoted from A Department to B Department, she had been promoted to director. And since the plagiarism incident ended, everyone in the company had realized that Derek stood by her.

Therefore, in the Xavier Group, any normal person did not dare to provoke Nora and was very polite to her.

After Nora got off work, she went back to her apartment. Before she could enter the gate of the neighborhood, someone immediately appeared and frightened her.

"Nora..."

She didn't expect it to be Sheldon. After a moment of shock, she returned to her sense and said, "Sheldon? What brings you here? What's wrong?"

No matter what her feelings for Sheldon were, at least one thing was clear to her.

Since the last time she saw Sheldon treat her son like that in private, and it was only a while ago that she learned of his true color, things would never work out between them.

However, it was Sheldon who had been helping her for the past five years and he treated her well, which was undeniable. She would never forget that.

Therefore, they could not be lovers, but they could only be ordinary friends.

Of course, if Sheldon needed her help in any way, she would certainly help him within her scope. But Sheldon didn't think so.

After what happened to Aubrey, if Nora was angry if she saw him, it'd mean she still cared about him at least.

But now, Sheldon had a bad feeling that she was so cool when seeing him like she saw a friend. "Nora, I want to talk with you, okay?" He took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the irritation in his heart. He was dispirited with a gloomy look.

Nora pursed her lips and thought about it. She agreed. Anyway, since she had a plan in mind, she should talk to Sheldon. After all, all things were never do things by halves.

Sheldon, who didn't know what she was thinking, was secretly happy to see her agree.

In the nearby coffee shop, the two ordered a cup of coffee and sat opposite each other.

The few people had been following Nora to keep her safe. Two of them came to the table behind them, and they dutifully sent the scene of their conversation to Derek via online video.

The top floor of the Xavier Group.

Damian entered the president's office with a tablet in his hand, "Boss, there's something going on with Miss Gray. Have a look.”

Derek took the tablet and saw Sheldon on the screen. Unconsciously, he frowned, turned it up, and watched it silently.

Sheldon and Nora in the coffee shop were unaware of all this.

"Nora, I know you must still be blaming me for Aubrey's thing. Yes, I admit, it's all my fault.”

"I shouldn't have lied to you, and I shouldn't have been unfaithful to our relationship of five years, and I shouldn't have been obsessed with that woman, Aubrey, and ended up hurting you.”

"Nora, it's okay. Thank god that you're finally okay. Otherwise, I really won't forgive myself.”

In Derek's office, because of the loud tone, Sheldon’s apology echoed in the quiet room, .

In particular, he said in a sobbed voice when he finished the last sentence. Most people who didn't know the truth would have forgiven him in a moment of weakness.

Damian twitched his lips and couldn't help but worry, "Mr. Xavier, Sheldon is so eloquent. What if Miss Gray's heart is softened...”

The last words were left unsaid, but the meaning was clear. Once Nora got soft on him, what they had done earlier would be in vain.

To be honest, with what Damian knew about Nora's character, he felt that she was likely to get soft- hearted.
