Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 431: Overslept Again

Inside the cramped elevator, a lingering scent of alcohol remained.

Jasper Sinclair carried the person horizontally back to the bedroom, his abdomen feeling warmth in waves.

He placed Nora Northwood on the bed, carefully wiped her body and changed her into clean, refreshing pajamas.

...

Nora Northwood always sleeps through the entire morning after getting drunk.

This time was no exception.

If it weren’t for Leia waking her up, she would probably miss the time to return home tonight.

"Dear Leia, thank goodness you woke me!" Nora blabbering, strongly expressing her gratitude to Leia.

Leia had never seen her so emotional, and just assumed it was an aftereffect of getting drunk.

Then, she spoke honestly: "Director Sinclair instructed that you sleep no later than twelve o’clock." Saying this, she remembered something else: "Director Sinclair also instructed the hotel staff to prepare some sobering tea for you, which will be delivered to your room in fifteen minutes."

Nora Northwood picked up her phone and found a long list of unread messages from Jasper Sinclair on the screen.

She clicked on it and saw several locations shared.

Jasper Sinclair frequently travels to France every year; knowing she’d want to buy gifts for her friends back home, he recommended several places worth visiting.

The message was from five hours ago; she replied with a "thank you" in a playful emoji and began tidying herself up.

Being unfamiliar with Paris, Nora Northwood sifted through the options and followed Jasper Sinclair’s recommendation, heading to Champs-Elysees, rumored to be heaven in Paris.

Rows of green trees, birds and swallows fluttering around.

Prosperous, romantic, and trendy all gather in this long street, not only renowned but also dazzling.

Nora Northwood’s consciousness was fully restored to a clear state, and she rarely slowed her pace, wanting to experience the slow-paced life of the French.

She leaned on Leia’s shoulder, sitting on a long bench beneath a plane tree, the large leaves shielding them from the dazzling sunlight, allowing them to steal a half day’s leisure in this peaceful corner.

"I’ll take a photo of you." Leia was amazed by the charm of the Eastern face, hurriedly opened the camera, capturing the scene, and offered unreserved praise: "You’re the prettiest Eastern girl I’ve ever seen."

"If you say that, I’ll be very proud."

Nora Northwood joked with her; after sitting a while, she entered a merchandise shop.

All kinds of ceramic dolls were displayed on the shelves, and just looking at them cheered her up.

Nora Northwood’s eyes spun around; she casually picked up a pink little doll and asked Leia, "Is this cute?"

"Very cute, but I don’t think it suits your style; you should have a quirky spirit mixed with a bit of stubbornness!" Leia perfectly described the image and persona she had in her heart.

Just as Nora Northwood was about to pay, Leia reminded her: "Ceramic materials can easily get broken on bumpy roads."

She was indifferent, "A private jet will protect this little doll."

Leia shrugged, indeed, the world of the wealthy is beyond imagination!

Nora Northwood picked out two ceramic dolls in total, one to place in the office as a decoration, and another to give to Lily Sloan.

The ceramic store’s adjoining shop was a jewelry store; she was also planning to pick out some gifts for others.

Having toured the entire street, Nora Northwood returned with a full load. Based on everyone’s preferences, she selected suitable gifts for all VK employees.

On the way back, Leia reminded her: "After dinner, a vehicle will come to the hotel to take you to the airport."

"Alright."
