Chapter 1172: The Stray Cat



Chapter 1172: The Stray Cat

Soon after, Andrea Greenwood’s gentle voice sounded from outside the door, "Brother Jose, are you awake? Auntie asked me to bring you a late-night snack."Jose Floyd acted as if he hadn’t heard the voice outside the door, his gaze resting on Nicole, appearing to be waiting for her to continue, his demeanor as noble and indifferent as it could be.

Nicole glanced at the door and said in a deep voice, "You deal with your fiancée first."

After speaking, Nicole returned to her room through the side door, closed the door, but her steps halted; she didn’t leave.

She heard the cold voice of Jose Floyd, "Come in."

Then Andrea Greenwood’s gentle voice followed, "Brother Jose, have some late-night snack, it’s white fungus soup, perfect for cooling down in summer."

"Leave it here; if there’s nothing else, please go."

The cold voice made Nicole mourn for Andrea Greenwood, who got a cold shoulder.

But wasn’t Jose Floyd cold to everyone? He’s only cold to Andrea. Considering how he ignores others, this was much better.

After all, she’s the fiancée, so there’s still some differential treatment from regular people.

"Brother Jose..." Andrea’s voice carried tension and unease, "Do you have some free time recently? Can you accompany me for a stroll? I’ve been in City C for over a month and want to see the scenery here."

"I’ll have Camden arrange a tour guide for you, let them know where you want to go."

"Brother Jose... are you dissatisfied with this marriage? Auntie said we should get married soon. Brother Jose, I’m very willing to accept this marriage, only I’m not sure about you... Whatever happens, I hope Brother Jose genuinely wants to marry me."

Nicole’s fingers fluttered over her phone, her gaze somewhat distracted. In her distraction, the phone fell to the floor with a thud. She hastily stooped to pick it up.

"What was that noise?" Andrea asked, looking at Jose Floyd.

Jose Floyd’s brow twitched slightly, and his peripheral vision skimmed over the partition door as he spoke blandly, "I have a stray cat in the study; probably needs some disciplining."

Nicole’s action of picking up the phone paused for a moment, her lips pressed together, her emotions somewhat complex.

Andrea didn’t suspect anything, her gaze towards Jose Floyd filled with irrepressible affection, her voice soft as water resonating in the room, "Brother Jose, Auntie wants a child. If you don’t have objections to this marriage, we... we could have a child before the wedding."

"Andrea, are you marrying me because you love me or because you want a child?" Jose Floyd spoke lightly, sitting on the sofa, playing with a teacup from the table, his eyebrow raised, his gaze brushing over the partition door.

"Brother Jose, I want to have a child with you because I love you. Brother Jose, Auntie is of age, and she surely wants a grandchild. If we fulfill her wish, she would be very happy, which might also be good for her illness."

"Andrea, your gentleness and filial piety certainly make you suitable for being a wife." Jose Floyd continued to play with the teacup; his tone was gentle, more so than his usual indifference.

"Brother Jose..." Andrea’s voice carried shyness and uncontrollable delight, "Do you also approve of this marriage? Brother Jose, I promise to strive to be a good wife, to be a virtuous wife and loving mother."

Jose Floyd responded with a light "Hmm."

"Then, Brother Jose, enjoy your late snack first; I’ll come back later to collect the bowls." Andrea, somewhat nervous, watched Jose Floyd; her gaze flickered towards the snack.

"Alright." Jose Floyd’s voice had an uncharacteristic hint of warmth.

Filled with joy and hope, Andrea happily got up to leave, "Brother Jose, remember to have some late-night snack, I’ll come up later."
