All Chapters of He Sent Me Away for Three Years. Now My Divorce Has Him Panicking.: Chapter 241 - Chapter 250

The men quickly went along with him.“Of course. Go take care of what you need to. Don’t worry about us.”After James walked away, the men watched him go and could not help muttering among themselves.“Didn’t everyone say he hated Nina? That he’s never cared about her since they got married? Then why did he get angry when we talked about her just now?”“Who knows? He’s impossible to read. And from what I can see, neither he nor Yvonne is easy to deal with. Who knows what kind of mess they’ll stir up next? If you ask me, we should stay out of their business from now on.”“Exactly. And honestly, Liam doesn’t look much like James at all. Who knows what’s really going on there?”On the way back, Nina kept thinking about one thing.Should she contact Leo?She hesitated for a long time, opening their chat and closing it again. In the end, she decided not to bother him.But just as she exited the app, Leo called.She picked up, and the first thing she heard was his voice.“Were you

Being questioned again only made Nina more embarrassed.“Seriously. If you don’t believe me, I can swear. If I ever...”“That’s enough.”Nina had only wanted to swear an oath to prove her innocence, but Leo cut her off before she could finish.When she looked at him again, she realized his expression had turned even colder than before.“I really didn’t say anything,” Nina insisted quietly.“I believe you,” Leo said, sounding helpless.Silence settled between them.Nina had no idea what he was thinking, so she didn’t dare say anything else. After all, she had just dropped a pretty serious accusation on him out of nowhere. She couldn’t exactly blame him for being upset.They sat in silence for a while before Leo suddenly asked, “Have you eaten yet?”Nina shook her head.Other than those two little pastries earlier, she hadn’t eaten anything.Leo frowned. “Weren’t you with James? He didn’t even take you to get something to eat?”Nina shook her head again.Even if James had o

Nina had assumed the restaurant was somewhere inside the complex. After all, some upscale restaurants were tucked into residential developments like this.But then the security guard at the entrance greeted Leo by name and said, “Welcome home, Mr. Taylor.”Nina froze.It took her a moment to process what she had just heard.“Aren’t we going to eat?”“Yeah. We are.”Leo didn’t look surprised in the slightest. He kept driving as if everything were perfectly normal and headed straight into the underground garage.“But this is...”“My place,” Leo finished for her before she could.“We can eat here too.”“That’s not what I meant.”Nina looked out at the unfamiliar surroundings.She was just caught off guard. He hadn’t said a word beforehand and had simply driven her straight to his home.And she hadn’t prepared anything.This was her first time visiting someone’s home, and he was still technically her boss. Shouldn’t she have brought some kind of gift?“It just feels a little

The moment the words left her mouth, Leo laughed.He folded his arms and leaned casually against the refrigerator, looking effortlessly relaxed.“So that’s what this is about. You’re afraid of eating my cooking, aren’t you?” he teased. “Worried I’m terrible at it? That you won’t be able to stomach it?”He raised a brow.“Relax. I don’t get many chances to show it, but I can cook.”And not just a little.There were several dishes he was especially good at.That was something he had learned from his father.In Leo’s family, no one bought into the old-school idea that cooking was somehow a woman’s job. If anything, the men in his family took pride in taking care of their wives.As far back as Leo could remember, his father had cooked all the time, usually making whatever his mother happened to be craving. When it came to food, her preferences always came first, even before Leo’s.His grandfather used to tell him that there was nothing unmanly about knowing how to cook, and certa

They walked over to Leo’s desk.He opened a drawer, pulled out a slim research packet, and handed it to her.The moment Nina saw the cover, her eyes widened.“How did you get this?”The Bode Institute had recently published a paper in “Nature” detailing a breakthrough in the safe insertion of large DNA sequences into cells.The new technique allowed researchers to generate single-stranded DNA templates directly inside the cell nucleus, making it possible to precisely insert DNA sequences thousands of base pairs long while avoiding the immune response associated with double-stranded DNA.It could have major implications for treating genetic diseases such as hemophilia and cystic fibrosis by allowing researchers to insert entire functional genes.And the material Leo had just handed her was directly related to that work.The paper itself had only just been published. Most of the research had never been presented anywhere else, and some of the information in Leo’s hands went far b
