Chapter 31Andre stood, a smile curled up his lips. “I don't have parent but your grandmother replaced them. I enjoy the porridge tho, see you later in the night.“Although madam Rosa was generous to him but Cherrie was the bone in his throat.On so many incident, she would squeezed her face and grumbled whenever her grandmother instruct her to serve him food.Nathan also would not forget the day he was badly hungry, madam Rosa served a delicious plate of crumpet, shoved the plate to Cherrie to bring to him but she intentionally let go of her grasp around the ceramic that it break.Cherrie accused him of being careless but instead of madam Rosa to get mad at him, she had only cautioned Cherrie.*Cherrie, you shouldn't talk to your elders in such way. Have you forgotten your manners?*“Fool at 30!" Nathan could heard her curse and the way she'd hissed but he was unperturbed.~~~~~~~~`8pmNew mansionThe enormous light emanating from Nathan's new acquired mansion brightened the entire
Chapter 32Angie scoffed.“Why would a pretty girl like me cling to a nobody like you?“ She puffed out air, and fidgeted with her fingers.“Please get lost." “If you mean it, I'll." Nathan said,and makes attempt to walk away." Well, if you mean for me to get into the party you will have given me your invitation card, and not ask for me to stick to you. Do you want the owner of the party to get me kick out?“ She fumed." But you're already kicked out!“ Nathan mocked at her.Angie stood stilled on her stance with thousand of thoughts running through her mind.After a few moments of silence,she heaved a light sigh. “ I'll just pretend as if I'm not walking alongside with you.“ She strolled to his side, made attempt to drape her slim hands over his shoulder but Nathan flinched.She was embarrassed tho but covered it with smiles.“She's with me." Nathan winked to the security man.“Sir, this is not permit. You can't walk with her into the party, unless you're willing to give your card
Chapter 33“Who told you I wasn't invited to the party,are you kidding me?" She licked the corner of her mouth,tilts her head backwards in a funny way.“Show us the card!" Madam Rosa's voice broke through the air.Angie heart skipped fiercely under her chest. Her gaze darted through the crowd for Nathan, she saw him bites his lips in frustration.She could deduced the disappointment on his face.Madam Rosa grabbed the card from Angie, she stared through it,and her face changes colour.“Why were you causing ruckus at my party?"“I do not owe you an explanation.“ Angie said in a presumptuous tone." Why were you slapped?“ Madam Rosa turned to the waitress to inquired.“Ma'am,this young lady called my attention to inquired why she wasn't served food.“ " I apologized to her, but she queried me on why I'll serve the young man over there, eventhough she was here before the man.“" I apologized,and told her that I'm only acting based on my mistress's order. Then,she slapped me.“Every of the
Chapter 34“An emergency sir!The voice replied over the line.****A few minutes after, Nathan arrived at the scene.“Sir,the CPO would love to see you, over there." Speaker A said with a gestured hand.Nathan nodded his head and hauled towards the direction of chief Robinson.“Nathan, sorry for the urgency! But as you can see, a murder case which needs to be solved.“Nathan's brow creased in awe." I knew you were not recruited to solve a murder case but with your acquired skills, I know this will be a small cake for you.“Nathan didn't know whether to take his words as a compliment. He was clearly informed; the CPO was only trying to use him to solve a murder case eventhough he was a civilian.He will have to excuse himself, he wouldn't dare to act reckless without the knowledge of his back-supporter.The system brought him to this stage and he would never forget, no matter what.“When do you think I should start."Nathan questioned after the pestered silence." You can start today,
Chapter 35[Tim Tim! System alert!]Nathan watched the hologram displayed right in front of him. [Task to earn stars: no matter what you must not get mad at Hong Fei, you will have to endure or else the system will be gone.] The system went blank.Nathan chuckled, his eyes rolling around. Was the system trying to play some prank on him?No matter what Hong Fei did to him he should ever get mad. He might be poor, and still be solely depending on the system for survival but becoming an understanding husband? Never!He had forever endured the scorn, taunts, and emotional bullying from Angie his ex-girlfriend. Those things almost drove him to depression, only he could relate to the whole feelings, no one would comprehend him when he told them he was tired of life just because of a mere girl's utterance.Nagging, and women should be banned from the earth.One of the reasons he had said this; he was slapped by a woman with whom he hadn't even signed a contract.“You slapped me but I'm unfa
Chapter 36It was two days.Two days of hell!Rue was back from the United State, he didn't retired to his home instead he moved in to the main Mansion.“Oh, this is the poor doctor." Rue taunted at Nathan.Nathan although irked kept a calm demeanor.“Brother in law." He prostrated with the tips of his fingers on the floor.Rue ensured that he swept Nathan's hands off the floor, Nathan made a thudding sounds as he flipped on his back.“Oh, my bad!" Rue teased,the corner of his mouth widening. “My sister's husband just fell at a light play. Oh, what a pathetic loser!“ He whined.Just as Rue was lampooning, Hong fei emerged behind the doors with a straight face.“Husband," she called in a frightened look. Her eyes rolled from Nathan to Rue, his half brother. “What are you doing on the floor?" She rushed over to Nathan, and helped him up. " Did my brother do this to you?" She inquired with fury vibrating off her voice.Slap! “Never you dare to humiliate me in the presence of my brothe
Chapter 27“This underground room was designated by my late mom, where experiments are being made on herbs before being formulated into drugs.“ Hong Fei explained to me." My mom was the brain behind the success of City Light Hospital. She was a great pharmacist, it was such a pity that she only shared some of her secrets with my father.“" The secret was written in a journal which had been passed from generation to generation. My mom was fortunate to blend the knowledge from the book with the modern knowledge, hence she was able to formulate and invent drugs.““This was her study room, and experimenting room.“ Hong Fei said in a sober tone lowering her gaze.Nathan could feel the brightened countenance of Hong Fei fading into a griever one.Tempted not to ask but he couldn't control the questions so he inquired. “ Why sad when you have the journal with you?“ Nathan curiously asked." That was what I think but later on I realized I was so careless. I couldn't find the key to the lock,
Chapter 38Rue's eyes widened in shock. “Honey do you know him?" He inquired.Angie became startled,she rolled her eyes around,and her fingers dug into her hair.“No, I must have mistaken him for someone."Angie spat. Initially she wanted to acknowledged Rue that Nathan was her ex-boyfriend,that he was nothing but a miserable person but later realized the implications if perhaps she talked.She diverted her gaze towards Rue, her hands softly grabbed his chin, her cheeks brightened with a warm smile.“Honey, what are you thinking about? It's our first day, you shouldn't allow such a lowlife to ruin your mood.“ Angie said aloud to Nathan's hearing.Moments of silence.Rue was quiet, as he stared hard at Angie, his deadly glare suddenly reduces to a look filled with lust. He pulled her closer to him. “You're beautiful."He complimented, licking his bottom lips.Angie smiled at his compliment, and turned around such that she was staring at Nathan from the corner of her eyes.She was surp
