Chapter 182 Because My Girlfriend Has Germophobia

Chapter 182 Because My Girlfriend Has Germophobia

What? Nora was bullied while picking up the dress too?

Hearing Reginald's words, Samuel's eyes darkened. He immediately turned his head to look at Nora.

He was both angry and helpless now. He wanted to ask Nora why she didn't contact him right away when she was wronged. He also wanted to know what Nora and Reginald had experienced together at the clothing studio.

But his rational mind told him that now wasn't a good time to question Nora.

What he should do most at this stage was to get rid of Reginald, this rival, as soon as possible.

"I did neglect Nora today, but whether I treat Nora well or not is between me and Nora. It's not your place to judge."

After taking a deep breath, Samuel reached out and pulled Nora behind him, then said expressionlessly to Reginald.

"Alright, Mr. Reginald Green, you can leave now."

"Nora, do you want to leave with me?"

Reginald pressed his lips together, forcibly ignoring the coldness radiating from Samuel, his eyes fixed firmly on Samuel.

"After today's dramas, you should have figured it out - Samuel isn't a qualified boyfriend for you. So, I suggest you make your choice again."

"Leave with me. I don't have as many admirers as Samuel does. If you're with me, you won't have to bear such huge pressure."

"Oh, and if you don't want your boyfriend to be too different from you, I can even resign from Bright Capital and take you to live in another city."

Resign from Bright Capital?

What was he joking about? He came to work at Bright Capital to compete with Samuel for the CEO position!

Had he thought this through? Was he really willing to give up the Green family's power and influence for her?

Reginald's words revealed too much information. Not just Nora, but everyone else present was shocked by him.

In the huge office area, only Samuel remained calm at this moment.

"Reginald, do you think a few lies can affect my relationship with Nora?"

Samuel held Nora tightly, looking at Reginald with disgust.

"They're not lies. Nora, every word I just said was serious."

Reginald didn't take Samuel's anger to heart. His eyes were only on Nora from beginning to end.

"I believe you."

Nora stared at Reginald for a long time, then pressed her temples and let out a long sigh.

"Mr. Reginald Green, I don't know why you're suddenly so interested in me, but I can tell that your attitude toward me has changed."

"Before, you approached me saying you liked me to use me, to help you deal with Samuel."

"But every word you said to me today was true. When I was being bullied, you really wanted to help me."

"I'm grateful to you, but... gratitude isn't love."

At this point, Nora paused for a moment, then slowly raised her head and gave Reginald a slight smile.

"I don't like you, and I can't accept your pursuit."

"Alright then."

Reginald pressed his lips together, looking helpless, as if accepting what she said.

Seeing this, Nora secretly breathed a sigh of relief, preparing to find an excuse to send him away and then return to her office to handle her work.

But before she could think of the right words, Reginald spoke again.

"However, not liking me now doesn't mean you won't like me in the future."

Reginald looked at Samuel with a challenging gaze, then in front of Samuel, reached out and ruffled Nora's hair.

"Nora, the promise I made to you before is always valid! If someday in the future you don't like Mr. Green anymore and want to leave him, you can contact me anytime."

"That day will never come."

Samuel's eyes darkened. He forcefully pushed away Reginald's hand, grabbed Nora's arm, and regardless of Nora's wishes, forcibly dragged her into his office.

"Tell me, what did you do to Reginald? Why did that bastard's attitude toward you change so much in such a short time?"

As soon as they entered the office, Samuel pinned Nora against the wall by the door.

"I didn't do anything."

Nora rubbed her shoulder and wrist that he had hurt, and the grievance and anger that had been building up in her heart suddenly lost control.

She bit her lower lip, glaring at Samuel angrily, her eyes brimming with tears.

"By the way, Mr. Green, before you lose your temper with me, can you reflect on yourself? Didn't you say you don't like Scarlett? Why can she use your lounge?"

"In Germany, what Dolores told me - was it all true? Did you sleep with Scarlett? Is the lounge in your office your secret hideout?"

What secret hideout?

How could she come up with such a ridiculous idea?

Samuel was so angry he laughed. He couldn't help but let her go and step back a few steps.

"Nora, take a good look at my office."

Look at his office?

She came to his office almost every day. What was there to see?

Nora was confused by Samuel. She sniffled and instinctively followed his request, looking around his office.

And then...

She froze.

In just one day, all the office supplies in Samuel's office had been replaced. Even the pot of flowers on Samuel's desk had changed from daffodils to a potted plant Nora didn't recognize.

"The lounge is also being renovated."

Seeing the anger disappear from Nora's face, Samuel chuckled softly, then pulled her back into his arms and rested his chin on her shoulder.

"But there are quite a few things to replace in the lounge. Kevin said he couldn't finish today and needs three days."

"Why?"

Nora blinked, and tears finally spilled from her eyes.

"Samuel, why are you renovating your office and lounge?"

"Because I know my girlfriend is a clean freak and doesn't like me using things her rival has touched."

Samuel led her to sit on the nearby sofa and gently wiped away the tears on her face.

"Although your jealousy proves you love me, I don't want to see you cry. So promise me, don't be jealous over nothing anymore, okay? If you're unhappy, you can tell me, and I'll comfort you."

"For example, today - if you had just asked, I would have told you that before Scarlett appeared, I didn't know she was in my lounge, and I never allowed her to use my lounge."

"Also, after you left, I already told Kevin. From today on, except for you and Kevin, no one can enter my office without my permission."
