Chapter 247 Fail to Reach Agreement

Nova frowned and looked apparently reluctant to get in. Chester looked at her and said calmly, “Nova, I

didn’t tell you many details. Can you give me a chance and get in?”

Nova pressed her lips. She thought that she had to take the chance to finish with him, and she agreed to

get in.

Chester produced a smile. After closing the door for Nova, he then headed for the driving seat.

He didn’t start the car after he got in. After closing the door, he turned to Nova and found Nova also

looking at him. Chester beamed and said, “About what happened yesterday. Everyone thought that I did

so to annoy Henry. But, Nova, each word I typed yesterday was with my heart and my sincerity.”

Nova sneered, apparently unconvinced. “Mr. Don, I am Henry King’s ex–wife. I have married before. I am

no longer an innocent girl.”

“I know,” Chester answered earnestly. Nova couldn’t find the usual languor on his face. Nova remained

silent as if waiting for him to continue.

Chester looked at her with sincerity. “To begin with our first meeting, when you were as Polly, I fell in love

with you for your temperament. Henry didn’t know how to cherish you, and that would be the biggest

failure of his life. I appreciate that. I am willing to surrender several projects to him in the future for that.”

Nova was rendered speechless.

She leaned against the chair and said without any surprise. “So, that’s all Mr. Don wants to tell me?”

Chester heaved a sigh. “I know you don’t believe me. But you need to give me a chance. Don’t you think

so?”

Nova didn’t hesitate to satirize, “Mr. Don, when you were chasing other girls, you were also so devoted

and dedicated?”

“If I tell you now that I never had a girlfriend, will you believe me?” Chester eyes her as if waiting for a

response.

Nova produced a giggle. “I hope Mr. Don could spare me such cold jest.”

Who would believe such nonsense?

Chester shook his head helplessly. “I didn’t care whether others think me a playboy or not because I

never fell in love with any woman. I never believed that I would fall for a woman. However, not until I met

you. Nova, do you know how regretful I am now?”

Nova looked up at him but she didn’t utter a word.

Chester continued in a low and gentle voice, “I regret not maintaining a good reputation for myself. If I

did, I chase you easier. And I also regret that why I didn’t meet you before Henry does. If I married you,

Nova, I would definitely make you the happiest woman. I won’t make you feel so sad.”

Nova’s heart skipped a beat. She produced a wry smile, but she soon regained her composure.

“Mr. Don, stop jesting. All you said is impossible. And since they are impossible, we might as well don’t

think about it. Besides, Mr. Don, before I manage to sever all my connection with the King, I hope we

could remain strangers. More than that, I don’t want your groups to start a war because of me.”

“Even without you, our groups would compete against each other… Unless one of us is out of business.”

Nova remained silent with her brows knitted.

Chester again brought her breakfast. “Have you had breakfast? Have some?”

Nova shook her head. “I’ve had.”

Chester put the breakfast down when Nova said gently, “Mr. Don, I suppose you have lots of things to

attend to. Since we can’t reach an agreement today, I think I’d better go to work.”

Saying, Nova was to open the car door to get off the car. However, her wrist was suddenly held by the

man.
