She's Too Late Chapter 9
After Lisa returned to the city, she immediately rushed back to her company.Henry felt guilty, but he couldn't bear to lose this well-paying, low-stress job.Therefore, he sheepishly clocked in and hunched over his desk, not daring to speak.Lisa kicked over his chair."Where's the brooch? Give it back to me!"All their coworkers looked over.Henry stood back up holding the table, looking wronged."Ms. Jetrow, I don't remember where I threw it."Lisa's eye twitched."Threw it? Didn't you say you lost it? So you threw it away on purpose."Henry felt even more guilty."I... no, I accidentally lost it..."Lisa kicked the table leg, frightening Henry."Tell me the truth!""I... I... The day you gave it to me, I casually threw it out the cab window on the ride home. I don't know where it is now. There's no way I can return it..."Lisa froze.She thought Henry might have sold it or kept it. At worst, she thought he might have left it somewhere and forgotten about it.She ne

"Grandma wouldn't want you to cry.""I know, but I can't help it.""Then cry your heart out. I'll be here with you."I held her tightly and cried for a long time.I cried until I was out of breath. In my dizziness, I noticed someone standing at the doorway."Jeffrey..."I wiped my tears and saw Lisa stumble in."Get out!"I roared, putting all my strength into it.She stopped abruptly."Jeffrey, listen to me, I didn't know Grandma was critically ill, I thought...""You thought what? You thought I was lying to you?! Lisa, do you have no conscience? How could I possibly lie about Grandma dying?!""But... Henry said… Your cousin, he...""I don't even have a male cousin!"After saying that, my vision went black, and I swayed backward.Susan immediately supported me and frantically rubbed my temples."Jeffrey, are you alright? Calm down and breathe slowly. Don't get so emotional!"I slowly regained consciousness. I saw that Lisa's face had turned deathly pale.She stared w

Having not slept for two days, she slept for a very long time.When she woke up, it was the morning of the last day of the five-day holidays.The first thing she saw was the engagement ring on the bedside table.She instantly sobered up. She got up and pulled open the wardrobe, only to find Jeffrey's clothes all gone.Lisa gulped. She picked up her phone, then realized that she had messaged the wrong person.Instead of Jeffrey, she had sent the text to Jeffrey's grandmother.The first year they started dating, she had begged Jeffrey for his grandmother's contact on WhatsApp.Knowing his grandmother was elderly, Lisa often sent voice messages to coax her into taking her medicine.When his grandmother knitted her gloves, she even posted about it on her social media, hoping to make his grandmother happy.But later, when she started her own business and got busy, she muted his grandmother's WhatsApp messages and gradually forgot about it.Lisa quickly tapped open the chat.Then,

They arrived at Henry's hometown on the afternoon of the second day.She was so tired she could barely keep her eyes open, yawning twice as soon as they parked outside his parents' home.Henry said weakly, "Thank you for driving me back, Ms. Jetrow. I promise I'll get my driver's license as soon as I get back to the city. I'll drive you around from then on."Lisa said nothing.Driving was originally an assistant's duty.She'd been considerate because he was a fresh graduate, so she'd distributed his tasks to others and driven herself..."Ms. Jetrow, actually, there's something I've been wanting to tell you..."He looked hesitant.Lisa turned to him, but before she could ask what it was, the front door opened.A house full of men, women, and children swarmed out, excitedly crowding around the car."Is this Henry's girlfriend's car? It's a luxury car! It must have cost a fortune!""Hey, hey, don't touch it! If you break it, you have to pay!""Don't worry, I'm sure Henry's gir

Lisa paused, then let the machine scan her ID again.But it still showed no ticket information.The staff member offered a polite smile and extended a hand."Ma'am, could you please show me your purchase record? I'll help you check if it's a system error or if you had accidentally cancelled the ticket."Lisa shook her head absent-mindedly."I wasn't the one who bought them."The staff turned to Henry:"What about you, sir...?"Henry bit his lower lip and said nothing.They weren't the ones who bought the tickets, so of course they had no record.Suddenly, Lisa recalled something.She tapped open her unread messages and scrolled down.Besides ads, there were two messages from a ticketing app. She had ignored them, thinking they were just successful purchase notifications.But now that she thought about it, she'd already received a success purchase notification right after buying the tickets with Jeffrey's phone, so what were these two messages?"Ms. Jetrow, your tickets ha

"Ms. Jetrow, please don't get mad... Mr. Woods, how much is the brooch? I'll pay you back. I'll go borrow the money right now..."I stood still."I'm not throwing a tantrum."Lisa's entire face tightened. She gritted her teeth and forcefully nodded her chin."Alright, since you want to call off the engagement, then get out of my house!"My heart sank.The house was our home.We each paid half for it. I oversaw the renovation and personally picked out every single piece of furniture.On moving day, she hugged me tightly and wouldn't let go for anything.We dreamed of planting flowers and sharing meals in this house.The middle room would be for the kids, and the small room would be our shared study.Back then, she said, "This is our home."Now, she said it was her house, and told me to scram.I swallowed the lump in my throat and walked back to the bedroom as if treading on broken glass.All my luggage had already been sent away, so there were only a few small items left.
