Chapter 462 

Ms. Smith?Jack was puzzled to see Nancy come out of the office. Didn’t she just say she had something to discuss with Jacob? Why had she come out so soon

Nancy’s eyes were slightly red, but to avoid showing her distress, she tightly squeezed her fingertips

Don’t tell him I was here.” 

Of course, Ms. Smith.Though Jack didn’t know what had happened, he respectfully obliged

Nancy didn’t linger any longer and quickly walked into the elevator. When the elevator stopped on the fifth floor, a group of gossiping employees entered the elevator

Have you heard? Mr. Murray has a girlfriend now!” 

Really? Mr. Murray has a girlfriend? Isn’t he usually nonchalant toward women?” 

Yeah. Are you sure this isn’t just some false rumor?” 

Definitely not! I heard it from the front desk. That young lady from the Lyold family is Mr. Murray’s girlfriend. She even came to find him today.” 

Right! I also heard that she would be attending today’s banquet with Mr. Murray

As Nancy silently listened in on their conversation, the pain in her heart deepened. No wonder he had been so distant lately. He had a girlfriend and didn’t want her to misunderstand

Fortunately, she hadn’t expressed her feelings to him yet. Otherwise, she would have made a fool of herself

Suppressing her bittersweet emotions, Nancy pulled out her phone and blocked Jacob on WhatsApp

Although she had liked him, she wasn’t the type to cling desperately

Nancy, what are you doing here?” 

As soon as Nancy stepped out of the elevator, she bumped into Stanley. Seeing his surprised expression, she gave him a slight nod and turned to leave

But Stanley immediately reached out to stop her, a bright smile on his face. I’m here with my dad today to discuss some business. Little did I know I would run into you. We must be fated to meet!” 

Ever since Jacob’s warning to him the last time, Stanley had refrained from pursuing her. However, he seemed to have forgotten about Jacob’s warning after running into her today

Nancy, I happen to need a date for tonight’s banquet. Would you do me a favor and be my date for tonight?” 

Nancy tried to suppress her emotions and put on a nonchalant facade. Sure, I can do that.” 

Surprised by her agreement, joy erupted in Stanley’s heart. Great, Nancy! Then, it’s settled. I’ll come pick you up tonight!” 

Meanwhile, in Jacob’s office, Tina bit her lip and put on a pitiful look that would make anyone’s heart soften

Jacob, I didn’t intend to. I just lost my balance for a moment. It wasn’t intentional, promise.” 

Unfortunately, Jacob was unmoved. His expression remained icy and his tone was impatient

Get out. Don’t enter my office without permission again, or don’t blame me for being ruthless to your family.” 

Hearing Jacob’s merciless words, Tina’s expression darkened. Yet, she still mustered the courage to speak gently. But Jacob, your mom asked me to be your date today.” 

Get out.Jacob’s patience was wearing thin, and he shot her a cold glare. Don’t make me say it again.” 

Intimidated by Jacob’s demeanor, Tina didn’t dare to linger any longer. She covered her mouth and fled, tears streaming down her face

Jack had long since grown accustomed to watching women like Tina run out of the office in tears. After all, aside from Yvette, Jacob had always been cold and distant toward other women
