Mrs. Hawn, Your Disguise Was Penetrated

Chapter 55 - 52 Nora Did Not Like Him

"I don't care about your family, including Asher!"

The words that Nora had just said with a bit of proudness kept ringing in Asher's ears.

Nora didn't like him?

Why? Was there something wrong with him?

Asher looked a little sullen. All his life, he had always been God's favored one and had been especially privileged. It was the first time he felt the frustration of being looked down upon.

In the past, it was always him who did not care about others, but now he was being ignored...

Seeing that Asher was standing in front of her with a gloomy face, Nora asked in surprise, "Asher, aren't you at home? Why did you suddenly come over?"

Before Asher could answer, Ashley beat him to it and complained to him, "Asher, you're just in time! Look at my face. Nora did this to my face. What's more, Auntie got beaten up by Nora."

Nora was speechless. When had she hit Madge and Ashley?

"Didn't I tell you to stay out of Nora's way?" Asher glanced coldly at Ashley.

His aura was so powerful that Ashley shuddered, blinked her eyes, and looked at Madge sadly, "Auntie..."

"Asher, what's so good about this woman? Why do you have to be so protective of her?" Madge sounded angry.

Her own son actually had a bias towards that hillbilly.

"All I know is that grandpa likes her." Asher tugged at his tie impatiently, "Grandpa is not in good health. Mom, you don't want grandpa to be angry either, do you?"

"You..." Since Asher mentioned Howard, Madge was unable to argue with him.

"Mrs. Hawn, I have told you that I will leave, but not now." Nora mockingly looked at the check on the ground that she had torn up, "You'd better keep the fifty million dollars for yourself!"

After saying that, Nora walked towards her office without looking back.

"Auntie, look at her. What kind of attitude is that?" Ashley was so angry that she stomped her foot.

She thought that she could make use of Asher's injury to make Madge drive Nora away, but Nora refused to leave as bold as brass and even Asher was protecting her!

"Asher, is your hand okay?" Madge pulled Asher's hand over sadly and carefully.

"It's fine." Asher drew back his hand with no expression.

Madge snorted coldly, "I heard you got into this mess because of Nora?"

"It had nothing to do with her." Asher said coldly, "Mom, don't pick on Nora again."

"I picked on her?" Madge was furious, "Asher, I am doing this for your own good as your mother. Do you really want to marry such a country bumpkin? What's so special about her? Isn't she just a little prettier? You have been charmed by her? Such a woman is unruly and greedy for money. She might be doing something disgraceful behind your back!"

"That's right!" Ashley heard that and also spoke ill of Nora, "Asher, Auntie is right. After all, Nora is from the countryside. What else can she do but seduce men? You're the one who's being kept in the dark. I saw Nora with a man last time I went shopping with a friend."

"What man?" Asher frowned and asked subconsciously.

"It's the most popular actor recently, the second child of the Lambert family, Levi," Ashley answered, "I don't know how Ashley knows Levi, but the two of them were very intimate, holding hands together..."

"That's enough!" Asher's handsome face turned sullen and he interrupted Ashley impatiently, "Nora and Levi are just friends. So stop snooping around."

But he could not help but recall when Nora sang to Levi at the bar that day.

Asher went back to the president's office with his handsome face taut with anger.

Picturing Nora and Levi making out, Asher flipped through the papers on his desk in annoyance but didn't read a word of it.

Clark took a document and prepared to give it to Asher for signature. Just as he reached the front door, he heard Asher's stern and cold voice coming from inside the door, "Why is there a typo?"

"I'm sorry, boss. I'll go correct it right away!" The manager who was reporting to Asher had been criticized and broke into a cold sweat.

Today, there seemed to be something wrong with the president, who had such a gloomy face and criticized him for half an hour just because of a misspelled word.

"What are you waiting for? Go correct it!" Asher's cold and stern eyes could almost freeze him.

"Yes, yes!" The department manager was relieved and hurriedly went out.

At the door, the department manager kindly reminded Clark when he met him, "The president is not in a good mood today, so you better prepare yourself."

Not in a good mood?

The president had always been keeping a poker face. When was he ever in a good mood?

Clark knocked on the door in confusion.

"Come in!" Asher's voice, indeed, was a bit colder than before.

Clark handed the document in his hand to Asher and said carefully, "President, this document needs to be signed."

Asher took the document, glanced at it coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Isn't this document to be sent to the partner this afternoon? Why didn't you bring it to me to sign until now?"

Clark shuddered and said in his heart, "It's just because you took the morning off from work, Lord President."

It seemed that Asher had read Clark's mind and said again in a cold voice, "Wouldn't you bring it to my house and ask for my signature?"

Clark got scared by Asher's cold and stern gaze and said, "Got it. I'll pay attention next time."

Only then did Asher sign his name with a pen.

Clark took the document and turned around to go out, when suddenly Asher's cold voice came from behind him, "If a woman does not like a man, what would be the reason?"

Clark stopped walking, feeling puzzled.

A woman did not look like a man?

What did that mean?

Who was the woman? And who was the man?

Had the president been rejected by a woman?

But that was impossible! There were so many women who wanted to get the president's attention like a moth to a flame!

How could he know why?

After thinking for a moment, Clark said, "Probably because the man is not very nice, right?"

"Get out!" Asher's voice was as cold as winter.

...

Nora returned to her seat and buried her head in serious work.

The meeting with Bruce today was successful. Bruce was very satisfied with her plan and hoped to launch the new product to market as soon as possible.

Therefore, Nora would be quite busy in the next few days. She had to keep an eye on the progress of the launching of the new products and to launch them in mass production as fast as possible.

Nora was about to call a meeting with the staff involved in the 'Ice and Fire' series when suddenly the phone on her desk rang.

It was Asher calling.

"Hello..." Nora picked up the phone and before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Asher's cold voice on the other end of the line.

There were only four words, "Come to my office."
