Nate stared at Erica's departure with a sad look in his eyes, leaving all his family looking very angry. Especially Erica's grandmother who felt she was not appreciated there at all."You'd better call your favorite child back here or you'll be in big trouble!" Grandma Erica shouted in a high tone. She was furious with Maria. She thumped her cane so hard that it startled everyone who was there."A-Alright, Mom." Maria widened her eyes. With a pale face and trembling hands, she immediately got up from her seat and went to chase after Erica who had left the living room.This was the first time they had seen Grandma so angry like that and it scared everyone. But not the three of them, Nancy, Robert, and Anthony. They actually looked so happy when they saw Erica's grandmother angry with her. Seeing Grandma angry and hating Erica was the thing Nancy and Robert looked forward to the most because their position in this house would always be the highest. And Erica's rude attitude towards Anth
On the way home, Anthony kept thinking about what he had done wrong. He felt he had never offended anyone, let alone the president of Bluebell. Then why did Bluebell's president suddenly cancel all cooperation?"Shit! What the hell is going on? Daddy must be angry right now." He bit her lower lip in worry.When he arrived at the courtyard, he got out of the car and entered the house. His father was already in the living room waiting for him with a look on his face."Dad," Anthony said, but one second later, his father was already abusing him with harsh words."You stupid boy, what have you done to make President Bluebell so angry, huh? Do you know your stupidity is putting our company on the brink of bankruptcy!" he snapped. The veins on his neck were tense and his hands were at his waist."Daddy, I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't offend Bluebell's president either.""Then why did they suddenly cancel all the cooperation contracts? Whose fault do you think it is that you didn't do
"Has grandma been thinking of me as a family all this time? I don't think so." Erica roared, disappointed with her grandmother's attitude. All this time, her grandmother had only defended Nancy and her parents, never once defending and being kind to her.Erica was very sad and also upset. She didn't expect her grandmother to be so angry that she threatened to kick her out of the house just because of her attitude towards Anthony. Even to the point of not considering her family anymore.Disappointed, Erica left the living room. She sobbed, not knowing what else to say in front of her grandmother. Because it was all useless. Until whenever her grandmother would never support or care about her."Erica, Erica," Maria called with sadness. She could not bear to see her child suffer and be hurt like this. As a mother. She only wanted to see her child happy. But, all this happened not without reason.All these problems have arisen since Nate came to this house as a son-in-law."Erica, enough.
"Well, thank you, Morgan. And I'm sorry for bothering you at this time of night," Erica said as she ended her phone call with Morgan.She felt a little relieved, but also a little scared if President Bluebell refused her invitation to come to the party. After all, they had never met and she didn't know what President Bluebell looked like. But, Erica hoped that if they agreed to this request she could escape from the problems she was currently facing."Erica, how? Did they agree and want to come to the party?" asked Maria with a curious look."Morgan is asking Bluebell's president, Mom. She'll call me back after she asks him.""Oh, I hope he accepts your invitation.""I hope so, Mom." Erica smiled slightly and then excused herself to go back to her room. "Mom, it's getting late. I'm going back to my room. If Morgan calls me again, I'll let you know right away.""Alright. Tell mom and grandma right away, okay?""Okay."Erica then left Maria's room.While outside, Nate was about to go t
Erica felt very happy because of this good news, she put Lady Victoria, her grandmother, in a good mood. This would be very favorable for her and her mother, so they wouldn't be kicked out of the house. She would also prove to her family that she got the partnership because of her talent, not because of Anthony's influence. And they would find out at the party.Erica had a long chat with Victoria in her room to discuss what they needed to do to prepare for the party. Everything had to be organized, the party had to be very lavish and grand because this would be an opportunity for Erica's family to get more support from everyone. And everyone should know that they were also working with the Bluebell Company which had high connections in the business world.Since the news of Starry White's company going bankrupt and having many debts, many companies looked down on their company. And some of them cut off their cooperation because they did not want to be affected by the bankruptcy of the
Chapter 31.After a serious conversation between the two of them. The relationship was initially very awkward and like there was a big wall between them slowly crumbled a little. There was still awkwardness and still couldn't fully accept their hasty marriage, but Erica understood how good Nate was. Although they got married because of coercion from her grandfather. But it was undeniable that Nate was a responsible and caring man.Nate then put the cake on the table took a little cake on a small plate and gave it to Erica."Taste it and give me your opinion on the flavor," Nate pleaded. He hesitated to give the cake to Erica, for fear that it would taste bad. But he was also curious about the taste of the cake he had made with so much love.Erica accepted the small plate of cake Nate gave her and stared at it for a long time. Then she took a little bit of the cake with a spoon and put it in her mouth.Nate looked expectantly at Erica. Hoping that the cake was good and that she liked i
Morgan stood next to Nate with an angry face. She stared at the store manager who immediately looked down at her. The store manager knew that Morgan was a member of the elite in the entire designer boutique. She was scared to death. Her face was deathly pale, and her lips were suddenly paralyzed without being able to say a word. Her heart was beating very fast. Her hands were cold and trembling."What have you done?" asked Morgan with both hands on her waist. She stared at the store manager."Uh, I....""Why are you so silent? Where's the arrogant attitude and the harsh words you threw at me?" Nate spoke in a cold tone. He was very upset that the store manager had demeaned and ridiculed his wife, in front of his eyes. He was disrespectful when he was a customer of the store."Sir, please forgive me. Miss Morgan, I'm...." Her voice trembled. Her eyes were almost red with tears."Don't you know who you've insulted?!" Morgan snapped with anger. "How dare you demean my boss like that? Hi
Chapter 33.The problem at the boutique was solved. Nate was very happy that he had bought a beautiful dress for Erica. Two dresses that he had prepared for Erica to wear at a party with her family later and on their wedding anniversary."I hope Erica likes the dress I bought for her," Nate murmured as he walked out of the boutique.Morgan looked up at him with a faint smile. "Of course, Miss Erica will like the dress you bought for her. Besides, those dresses look really beautiful. Miss Erica will look beautiful in them.""Yes, I was thinking the same thing," Nate replied as he smiled at Morgan."Sir, would you like me to drive you home?" Morgan asked later.Nate shook his head. "No need. I already told Erica that I have an interview to go to today. And I don't want anyone knowing my identity because they saw us together," Nate told her. He took the paper bag from his bodyguard's hand."Then I'll call you a cab," Morgan said."No, I don't want to go home yet. I want to go somewhere. Y
