Chapter 89: Not showing Claire Rodriguez?
Victoria has calmed down now, with a decent smile on her cheeks.
“It just feels like I’ve accidentally overheard Mr. Andrews’ family business and I’m a little overwhelmed.”
“After all, if this news were to be leaked to the media, I’m afraid that tomorrow’s front page headlines would all be about you.”
The outside world hadn’t sniffed out any news about his marriage all these years, and when they did, they were afraid it would be a big deal.
He was the heir to the Andrews Enterprise, the youngest of today’s business nouveau riche, and with a trip to Silicon Valley to experience it at such a young age. It was no wonder that Mr. Andrews had always been pleased with this grandson.
His private life, naturally, will be in the spotlight.
Nick closed the file in his lap, “I don’t think you’re the talkative one.”
His tone was light, and his eyes fell on the Shannon Villa villa outside.
Declan thought he was going in, but all he said was, “Have someone bring some of my clothes in later.”
Declan nodded and turned the car around in front of him and said politely to Victoria, “Poppy, I’ll take the car to your apartment.”
Victoria’s condo had been sold and was now waiting for her to go over and sign the contract, so it was good to go over now, just so she could sign the contract.
“Okay, thanks.”
“It’s our turn to thank you.”
No one spoke again in the car, and the car that had come to pick up Nick had arrived as soon as the car stopped at the apartment.
Nick left quickly while Victoria stood in front of her car, making sure they were far away and wouldn’t be coming back before calling the agent and saying she could sign the contract now.
The agent had been waiting for her call, so this contract took less than half an hour to sign.
Victoria just had to wait for the money to arrive from the bank next.
She pulled back into Shannon Villa and was amused to see Aggie waiting outside in a panic.
“Aggie.”
Aggie stretched her neck and glanced behind her, relieved to make sure no one else was there.
“Victoria, what the hell is going on?”
“It’s fine, just worried about Mr. Andrews coming over. I’ve got some stuff in the car, have someone bring it down.”
Aggie had never actually met Nick, and would probably be nervous if she did at first.
At the moment he was not coming, she in turn relaxed a lot, and also led the people to the car to unload.
Once she had put what she could in the refrigerator, she looked at the delicate tote bag in her hand, “Victoria, what’s this?”
Victoria glanced at it, then remembered that she had forgotten to return his shirt.
“Give it to me, please. It’s someone else’s.”
Taking the bag of shirts, she headed back to her room, intending to get some rest, after all, the car ride was still quite tiring.
She slept straight through the night, and when she woke up, she thought about what Nick had said in the car about sending his stuff over, and went downstairs to order Aggie.
“Aggie, help me pack up the guest bedroom furthest from the master bedroom, Mr. Andrews would definitely put it in the master bedroom if he had someone bring something over.”Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Aggie’s face was a little heavy for a moment before she sighed.
“Victoria, why don’t I tell old Mr. Andrews, how Mrs. Andrews is treating you? He’s always calling back and caring about you, and thought you were getting along with Nick, and now Mrs. Andrews is letting you sleep in the guest bedroom, isn’t that a deliberate attempt to bully you?”
Aggie, commanded by old Mr. Andrews, came over and took care of Victoria, and had grown very attached to her over the years, treating her like her own daughter.
“It’s really not necessary. We’re going to have to get divorced sooner or later, and I don’t want to have anything to do with him before the divorce. Not sleeping in the same room is just what I want.”
Aggie had no choice but to order the others to go and clean up the room.
The master bedroom had been emptied of the things that belonged to Victoria, all moved to the room at the far end of the hallway, the two rooms being the furthest apart.
Victoria didn’t really have much, so the servants packed up quickly.
Victoria had decided to sleep in the guest bedroom tonight, and before she went to bed she sent the rendering to Nick, and if he didn’t respond like he had before, then she might have to come up with a construction plan based on her rendering and go back to the construction team.
The next morning, when she woke up, she saw that Nick had only replied with one word.
?Hm.】
Victoria inexplicably had a bit of a headache, having encountered such a client for the first time.
[Does Mr. Andrews need a third-party supervisor?]
Third-party supervisors are mainly hired by the owner to monitor the construction process and facilitate real-time feedback from them to the client.
Nick probably really wanted to stay out of the way from start to finish, though, so it came back a little faster this time.
?Not needed.】
Victoria thought again that this house was at least designed for his sweetheart, and this rendering, wouldn’t he show it to Claire Rodriguez?
