Always Been Yours

Chapter 686

For Cole’s sake, Nicholas accepted the request.

After Gole left Dynasty Gardens, he visited Janet.

“Mr. Spurse, what brings you here?” She found it odd, but still, she invited Cole to take a seat.

Meanwhile, Sally served them some tea and left the room.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip before he asked in concern, “How’s your injury?”

“I’m a lot better now. So, don’t worry too much about me,” Janet replied, smiling

He nodded. “That’s great. I came to tell you that I’ll be heading back to the headquarters in a few days and that you’ll be coming with me.”

Her smile froze on her face upon hearing the news. However, she quickly returned to her senses and realized that he must’ve had his reasons for saying so.

After all, he did agree to let her stay here and recover before this.

“Mr. Spurse, did Nicholas ask you to take me with you?”

“We’ve overstayed our welcome. You should return with me now that you’re feeling much better.” Cole did not deny her question.

However, Janet didn’t want to leave as she mumbled with a frown, “But that wasn’t what you said before.”

“Back then, I could see that you didn’t want to leave, so I let you be. However, you can’t continue to stay here anymore.” As he could see right through her, he tried to persuade her, “Plus, Nicholas is engaged now. It’s about time you give up on him.”
