Chapter 28 Thank you, Nora

Nora leaned over and said, "Excuse me, I'll go out for a moment."

"Where are you going?" Asher asked with a slight frown, and his tone was somewhat dissatisfied. "Dinner will be served soon."

What important thing could Nora have to leave now?

"I'm in a hurry." Nora stood up and walked directly to the door.

She dialed the telephone of the doctor in the pet hospital and asked, "Hello, Doctor, I'm Nora. What happened to the puppy I sent last time?"

The doctor said, "The dog has fully recovered."

Nora nodded. "I'll pick it up now."

In the photo just now, Nora saw that the dog Howard was holding was very similar to the stray dog she had saved before. The key was the collar around her neck, which was exactly the same.

Therefore, Nora was almost certain that the stray dog she saved before was the one Howard lost.

According to Asher, Howard had a deep relationship with the dog, so she decided to pick up the dog and give it to Howard immediately.

Seeing Nora suddenly leave, Madge was very dissatisfied, "Nora, what is she doing? That's rude."

Brittany echoed, "Yeah, Do you want everyone to wait for her to have dinner?"

Asher glanced at Howard and his voice was clear. "The company is in a hurry. Nora has to take care of it."

He didn't know what was going on. But Asher subconsciously didn't want others to gossip about Nora, especially his mother.

"What's so urgent? More important than your grandfather?" Madge raised her voice. " That's rude. But Brittany was polite."

Seeing Madge praised her, Brittany pretended to be shy. "Thank you, Auntie."

Howard became pretty serious, "Nora rushed over as soon as she heard that the company had something to do. She was serious and responsible. This was very good."

Seeing that Howard said so, Madge stopped saying blaming.

Brittany was biting her lip secretly and was filled with jealousy and unwillingness.

Why did Howard value Nora so much?

In terms of family background and appearance, what could she not compare with Nora?

Why Howard couldn't like her?

With this in mind, Brittany hid her emotions and pretended to be worried. "But Nora should also explain when she will come back. Howard is already in poor health. We can't wait for her for a long time."

"Let's eat first, don't wait for her." Asher frowned slightly and said indifferently.

He knew why Madge brought Brittany here today.

Even though he and Nora had no feelings. Asher just couldn't allow anyone to slander Nora.

"Dinner," Howard spoke.

"OK." Lean respectfully said and told the kitchen to bring the food.

"Howard, this chicken is good for your health." Brittany graciously helped Howard clip a chicken leg...

Howard gave a slight hum but did not eat the chicken leg Brittany had clipped.

Brittany was embarrassed and turned to look at Asher.

Today, Asher was wearing a white shirt. The blue plaid tie was slightly loosened, and his cuffs were rolled up, which was somewhat easygoing compared with the meticulous appearance in the past. His handsome face still seemed indifferent.

At the moment Asher was holding a shrimp peeling.

Elegant, proud, and impeccable.

Even such a simple action was still domineering and leaking.

Brittany couldn't help but be obsessed.

This man she had loved for so many years, why not treat her better?

Brittany quickly peeled a prawn and put it in Asher's bowl. She said gently. "Asher, have a try."

Asher moved the bowl aside, looking indifferent. "No, I'm not used to eating what others peel."

At this moment, the shrimp fell to the dining table and tumbled to the ground.

Brittany was stunned. She came from the famous and condescended to help Asher peel shrimps.

But it happened that he rejected it.

She felt extremely wronged. "Asher, I especially stripped for you."

"Yes, Brittany is very kind," Madge said.

Asher was still indifferent. He just wanted to say something when he suddenly saw a familiar and beautiful figure.

Asher suddenly smiled and raised his eyebrows. "Nora."

Looking down Asher's eyes, Brittany saw Nora running back quickly with a white puppy and couldn't help screaming, "Nora, why did you bring a dog here? We are all having dinner!"

Before Nora could speak, the dog in her arms suddenly struggled hard to jump off.

"You are so anxious." Nora smiled and bent down to let go. The dog rushed to the front and jumped on Howard's leg, dawdling with him intimately.

"Dori!" Howard's eyes suddenly lit up, his excited hands trembled slightly, and he looked at the dog in his arms in disbelief. "Dori, it's really you!"

"Wolf!" Dori shouted as if in response to Howard.

"I miss you so much." Howard stroked Dori, his eyes were gleaming with tears.

Dori, who had been lost for so long, had finally returned home!

"Nora, where did you find Dori?" Asher asked Nora.

It turned out that she had just left in a hurry to find Dori.

But Nora saw Dori in the photo for the first time today. How could she find it so quickly?

There were too many questions in his heart.

Nora came back running all the way and was panting at the moment.

She took a few deep breaths and raised her lips. "Do you remember the time I was late the other day and almost got fired from Sarah?"

Asher nodded.

Nora asked him to leave that time and said something was wrong. Later, Sarah went to the president's office and insisted that Nora should fire her for absenteeism. Later, he came forward to ask Sarah to apologize to Nora.

"That morning, Jennifer's car almost hit Dori. I took Dori to the pet hospital and delayed the time." Nora explained.

That's it!

It's just that Nora didn't know Dori was lost by Grandpa that day.

Therefore, she delayed her work in order to save a stray puppy and even was misunderstood and made a big fuss.

Such kindness was commendable.

Asher looked at Nora's eyes with a deep light and said sincerely, "Nora, thank you."
