CHAPTER 848: CHAPTER 848: HOW TO BRING SOMEONE BACK TO CHINA

Nora Northwood’s mind lost its ability to think for a moment, standing there numbly.

The handsome, roguish man tempted her step by step, eventually getting the desired outcome.

Their rooms were right next to each other.

Just a wall between them.

Nora squatted by the door, feeling bewildered all over, her mind filled with messy thoughts. She couldn’t figure out how she had ended up being successfully tempted.

Next door.

Jasper Sinclair first informed Francis that he would not be returning to the hotel tonight.

Then, he went to the balcony, instinctively taking out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, but suddenly remembered Nora’s question to him, hesitated a bit, and put it back.

After resting for a while, he began to handle work remotely, responding to several requests on the enterprise WeChat.

During a phone meeting, he coordinated a few agendas with Louis Hayes. As the work discussion ended, the latter seemed hesitant, like he had something to say.

Jasper, sensing his assistant’s pause, said directly, "Just speak up if there’s something on your mind."

Then Louis said, "Miss Peach Bell’s mental state isn’t good. Should we get a psychologist for her?"

"What about Liam Jacobs?"

"Young Master Jacobs can’t handle her either. It’s said that they’ve tried everything, but she’s not willing to cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, only wants to see you."

"Let her be. Subtly remind Liam. As for seeking help, let them decide on their own."

The call ended, and Jasper leaned back, his neck resting against the edge of the bed.

Now that it’s quiet, a faint sense of fatigue emerged from him.

What to do tomorrow?

Because of this incident, Jasper has become extraordinarily sensitive to every external change.

He absolutely wouldn’t allow Nora to stay outside for long. There are many things in Stanton City waiting for him to handle personally.

Additionally, due to memory loss, he rejects unfamiliar environments, currently pondering hard about how to quickly bring her back to the homeland.

Ironically, just three months ago, Nora was equally anxious about returning home.

In less than a hundred days, the object of anxiety reversed. Heaven surely loves playing tricks on people.

...

The next day.

Early in the morning, Nora was awakened by a call from home. It was from Yvonne Winslow.

"What’s the matter?"

Before she went abroad, she had already given Yvonne most of the authority and informed her not to disturb her unless it was extremely urgent.

Now, it seems something went wrong...

Yvonne’s voice came through the receiver, as calm as ever, but with a slight difference that could be noticed, "The factory we were working with suddenly informed us this morning that they want to terminate the contract."

"What’s the reason for the termination? How much compensation do they need to pay for the breach?"

"Their boss said... Another company offered an olive branch, willing to cooperate at a higher price. After consideration, they decided to terminate with us and are willing to pay a two-million breach penalty."

"What price did they offer to make them pay two million so readily?"

"Yes."

For Nora, VK and her current worth had already exceeded nine figures.

However, she had worked very hard along the way and wouldn’t spend the cash flow extravagantly even for work reasons.

"If they have no intention to collaborate with us, then let it go. We’ll find a new factory."

"If we switch to a new factory, a lot of preliminary investigation work is needed."

"Then go and do it."
