Chapter 59 His Invitation
The days after talking with Jane, Cora’s internship at the First Hospital was
uneventful.
But Sally always asked when she would profess her love to Carter when they
were off work.
Cora and Sally had just removed their doctor’s overalls and left the hospital. Sally
asked again, “Cora, will you profess your love to Carter today?”
Cora was slightly embarra*sed. “No.”
“Why? You have to seize the opportunity. When a man is deeply trapped in your
tenderness, you will get his heart easily. Otherwise, when his enthusiasm cools
down, you won’t be able to get his love no matter what you do.”
Sally emphasized this almost every day, and Cora gradually accepted this point
of view.
But the problem was that even if she wanted to seize the opportunity, she had to
meet his first.
Enter title…
Cora didn’t know what Byron was busy with these two days. He seemed to
disappear.
Their contact stopped on the day when he texted her and told her that he
wouldn’t go to her house.
Cora even wondered if Byron got tired of her.
But she couldn’t be sure about her speculation when she recalled how he helped
her inquire about Gabe’s situation.
In the past two days, she always checked WhatsApp from time to time, wanting
to see if there were any new messages from Byron or any new moments.
But the reality let her down. Byron never sent her a text message or posted
anything on Instagram.
If it weren’t for the dozen sets of his clothes in the closet, Cora would almost think
everything that had happened between them before was just a dream.
In uneasy expectations and inexplicable panic, Cora didn’t receive any news from
Byron, but Harry came to her unexpectedly.
Cora waved goodbye to Sally at the bus stop, who was going on a date.
Suddenly, a yellow convertible sports car stopped beside her.
“Hey, Cora!”
Harry took off the black sungla*ses on his face in the driver’s seat. There was a
Patek Phil*ppe watch on his wrist. He had curly hair. Today, he wore a pink shirt
and a purple suit jacket. He looked eye-catching.
“Mr. Cross, what a coincidence.”
Cora was not very familiar with Harry. She just had dinner with him once. But she
still had to say hello to him.
Harry was dressed gorgeously. He got off the car as if fearing no one would
notice him. Then, he walked up to her.
“It’s not a coincidence. I came here specifically to see you.”
While talking, Harry’s gaze was setting on Cora’s face.
She was so beautiful. Even if she was makeup-free, she was gorgeous. The light
pink dress perfectly revealed her perfect figure.
What a stunner! She was perfect.
Harry felt an electrical current spread through his b*dy whenever he saw her.
If it wasn’t for the downfall of the Lane family, and Cora had that kind of
relationship with Byron and Byron’s nephew, Harry might consider marrying her.
“What do you want to see me about, Mr. Cross?” Cora looked. Harry’s gaze
made her feel uncomfortable.
“There is a charity dinner tonight, and I have no female companion. Cora, can
you attend the dinner with me?”
Harry smiled and invited Cora.
Cora thought for a while before speaking, “I’ve been busy in the hospital all day,
and I’m tired. I can’t behave well tonight. Mr. Cross, I’m afraid I have to let you
down.”
An old saying was, “Be aware of being harmed by others.”
Cora didn’t think her relationship with Harry was close enough to attend the
dinner together. In addition, her intuition told her that Harry had other motives for
asking her to go to the charity dinner with him.
However, Harry seemed to have expected her decline. He maintained his smile.
“Don’t be so quick to refuse me. Cora, don’t you wonder what Byron has been
doing these days?”
Cora frowned slightly.
Her reason told her that she should be clearheaded. She was nothing to Byron.
Everything he did these days had nothing to do with her.
But the suppressed expectation in her heart made her lose her head. Finally, she
got into Harry’s car.
