Mr. Sallow's Sinful Wife by Maisie Chasey

Chapter 139 She Still Loves Him

Nancy and Nicholas arrived at the company together.

Interestingly, despite being married for two years, this was her first visit to his office.

The towering skyscraper was located in a prime location. Upon arrival, Nancy suggested, “You go ahead and handle your business; I’ll wait downstairs.”

“Wait for me in my office.”

“It’s alright.” Nancy shook her head. “I’ve never been there in the past two years, and our marriage has never been publicized either. If I suddenly show up with you, it will raise a lot of questions. I’ll browse around the nearby shopping center instead.”

Nicholas frowned and then spoke dominantly, “You can go to my office by yourself, or I can carry you

there.”

A speechless Nancy sighed and looked at him. “Do you have to make it this difficult for me?”

“As you said, we’re about to divorce. Consider this my last time making it difficult for you!” Nicholas retorted, his gaze deep and unrelenting.

“Very well.” Nancy stood up. “You go up first. I’ll be there in a moment.”

They compromised, and Nicholas nodded. “Alright.”

About ten minutes after he went upstairs, Nancy stood up and headed for the elevator.

As she pushed the door open and entered the office, she was momentarily stunned. It was spacious and spotless. Massive floor-to-ceiling windows bathed the room in bright light.

The office environment was surprisingly nice. However, it was quite different from her expectations of luxury and opulence. Instead, it exuded extreme simplicity and cleanliness, which, upon reflection, seemed to align with Nicholas’ style. In his professional life, he was undoubtedly efficient and meticulous.
