All Chapters of He Sent Me Away for Three Years. Now My Divorce Has Him Panicking.: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

Alan froze when he got the call.For a second, he thought he had heard her wrong, so he repeated her words back slowly.“Did you just say you want our entire project team to work through the holiday break?”“That’s right,” Yvonne said arrogantly. “Because of your team, the experiments still aren’t finished, and the data still isn’t ready. Of course you need to work overtime to get it done. If this delays the entire project and causes losses, are you going to take responsibility?”Alan had already explained this to her several times.He knew she was just looking for trouble, but he still forced himself to explain it again patiently.“It’s not that we can’t finish the experiments. The problem is that the comparison data isn’t ready yet. We’re running controlled experiments. If one set of data isn’t available, then using only the other set as a reference doesn’t mean anything.”“Data not being ready isn’t an excuse. Figure it out. Keep running tests. Add a few more groups if you ha

Nina was at the hospital when Alan called.The holidays were coming up, so work had slowed down a little, but Megan was getting ready for her transplant, which meant Nina was still extremely busy.Fortunately, Megan was in good condition and good spirits, so Nina didn’t have to worry too much.When Nina saw Alan’s name on her phone, she immediately set aside what she was doing and answered.“What’s wrong?”Alan had always been straightforward with her.“Boss, I just heard from Yvonne that you’re working at Mendel now?”“Yes,” Nina said. “I am.”She had originally planned to tell him later, when the timing was right. After all, she hadn’t only intended to tell him. She had other plans too.But since he had asked, she wasn’t going to hide it from him.Still, he had said he heard it from Yvonne.Anything involving Yvonne was bound to be trouble.After a moment of thought, Nina could more or less guess what Yvonne had said to Alan. It was probably nothing more than an attempt t

After thinking about it, James realized Nina did have a point.But he would never admit that.Besides, it was all in the past.He wasn’t the kind of person who wasted time dwelling on things that had already happened.“I’ve passed along the message,” he said. “What you do is up to you. Just make sure you’re ready to deal with the consequences.”That again.Nina was tired of hearing that line.In the past, she had always been careful around him. She had worried about every possible consequence and tried her best not to upset him.But in the end, had he ever let her off even once?Since that was the case, she might as well stop holding back.At least then, she could do what she wanted.So now, her attitude was simple.Whatever.Let things happen however they would.This time, Nina answered him only by turning her back and walking away.She didn’t know when James left.Either way, he never made it inside.The things he had brought, however, were left at the nurses’ statio

“You can leave now,” Nina said flatly.“I promised Grandma I’d stay here with you,” James replied calmly.“Grandma is gone. You don’t have to keep pretending.”“How do you know I’m pretending? Maybe I really do want to stay with you.”The words only made Nina feel sick.But right now, all her attention was on Megan in the transplant unit. She didn’t have the energy to waste on him, so she simply ignored him.She ignored his presence, and she ignored what he had said.She only placed the card Wilma had given her on the table.“Take this card with you when you leave. Other than that, do whatever you want.”With that, Nina acted as if he didn’t exist and went back to what she was doing.*Meanwhile, after Wilma got into the car, she immediately told the driver to go.Nathan and Susan had been waiting in the car the entire time, and neither of them was pleased.Susan, in particular, hadn’t wanted to come in the first place.On such a cold day, she had been playing cards with

It was Leo.He looked as if he had just gotten off a flight.His tailored overcoat was still crisp, but it couldn’t hide the faint exhaustion in his eyes. The night wind had ruffled his hair slightly, and his jaw was tense from the long trip.Somehow, he looked less sharp and untouchable than he usually did at work.Tonight, he seemed less distant somehow.Nina was surprised.And beneath that surprise was a trace of joy she didn’t even notice herself.On a night like this, at a time like this, he had appeared out of nowhere.It was completely beyond anything she had expected.“What are you doing here?”It was New Year’s Eve.According to his family’s tradition, he had to go home for dinner. Leo hadn’t been back in a long time, so this year, there was no getting out of it.But he had also remembered that Megan’s transplant was scheduled for today.So he had moved the family dinner to lunch. As soon as it was over, he rushed back without stopping.Still, from what Nina had
