Nate felt very guilty for lying to Erica, but he did it for the good of both of them. Nate didn't want Erica to misunderstand and think he was cheating on her. Meanwhile, he helped Flo because he felt sorry for her and only out of humanity. And he didn't tell Erica because he thought that this was just a trivial matter.After all, Nate never thought that Erica would be at the hospital and suddenly run out crying. So, he continued to chase after her."Erica, I'm sorry if I lied to you. I can explain what happened,” said Nate, holding the open end of the car window and looking at Erica with his serious eyes.Erica bit her lower lip. She felt annoyed and disappointed with Nate because his attitude in the last few days was strange and seemed to have changed. She just remained silent without saying anything and continued to stare at Nate while crying.“Erica, please,” Nate whispered, bringing his head closer to the glass window. He pleaded in a soft, low voice for Erica to get out of the c
“It's me,” Nate said in a quiet voice as his phone call to Nana was connected. He was currently standing outside the car while Erica was fast asleep after their hot sex in the car."Yes, sir. Is there anything I can help you with?” asked Nana, Nate's secretary speaking from the other end of the line.“I need you to go to the hospital right now,” Nate ordered. He briefly glanced to the side to make sure that Erica was still fast asleep even though he couldn't see Erica from outside."To the hospital? Are you sick, Mr. Nate?” asked Nana with her voice slightly raised in worry.“No, I'm not,” Nate informed her. He let out a long breath before speaking again. “I need you to pick up someone at the hospital,” he said.“Who's Sir?”"Her name is Florecita. I'll send you a photo and the room number where she's hospitalized. She should be discharged today, but I can't pick her up because I have business with my wife,” Nate explained."Yes, sir. So, you asked me to take care of Ms. Flocerita's d
That night, although Erica was no longer angry with Nate, she still felt upset about what had happened to them. Nate had tried to explain what happened and had no intention of lying to her and just didn't want to make Erica feel worried, that's why he didn't tell Erica. However, Nate doesn't tell Erica about Flo because Nate doesn't want Erica to get angry, hate him, and think bad things about him.So, that night, Nate continued to try to persuade Erica not to be angry with him anymore even though it seemed to take a long time for Erica to forgive him. Still, Nate felt grateful that Erica was not as angry as when they met at the hospital that afternoon.The next morning, when Nate woke up, he saw Erica still fast asleep. He kissed Erica's forehead and sat on the bed.Then, he heard his cell phone ring and it was a call from his secretary. Nate immediately got out of bed and rushed to the balcony of the room to take the call from Nana.“Hello,” Nate said as he pressed the green button
After dropping Erica off at the office, Nate immediately drove to the house he had rented to Flo after he remembered that Flo had asked him to come there. Nate drove his car at full speed. He was curious and a little worried about why Flo wanted to meet him in the morning.Was there something Flo needed or was there a problem that she was facing considering what had happened to Flo some time ago? Luckily, Nate was there that night so Flo was safe and not sold by her uncle to the mafia just for money.After a few minutes of driving, Nate finally arrived at the dominating white house. With plants and flowers in the yard. Nate stopped the car in the yard and got out of the car.“The house is quite beautiful and cozy,” Nate murmured, commenting on the house he had rented specifically for Flo to live in. He had only seen the pictures, but it was a good choice and it was the first time he had seen the house he had chosen in person.Nate walked up to the door and knocked lightly. Not long af
Nate widened his eyes in surprise at what Maria said. He did not expect to hear such words from Maria."What do you mean?" Nate asked. He looked at Maria while frowning. "I don't understand what you're saying at all, Maria," he said.Maria stared at Nate for a long time. She thought that Nate was doing something bad behind Erica's back. Because in the past, her husband had an affair that started because of sympathy for a woman. Eventually, they grew closer because they continued to spend time together.In the end, she found out that her husband was cheating on her with the woman he was helping. And he actually preferred a woman he had known for a while compared to her who had been with her husband for years. Maria chose to divorce her husband because she was so disappointed. Although it took her a long time to get over it, now Maria is happy living alone and no longer remembers her painful past.Maria seemed to let out a long sigh when she saw Nate's reaction, which looked confused, l
Nate, who was chewing his food, immediately looked at his wife. It looks like Erica is still thinking about the fundraising event that will be held later tonight. Because the event was attended by many important people and was guarded with very tight security, not everyone could enter the event building.Erica must be feeling worried because she had not received an invitation to the event when she really wanted to come so that she could meet many important people so that she could get a partnership with one of the important people who came to the event."Have you been worrying about it since yesterday?" Nate asked. He had prepared everything so that Erica could come there without having to hold an invitation. Because he was the President of Bluebell Holdings with great connections. So he could do anything.But Erica didn't know his true identity, so it was only natural for Erica to feel scared because she really wanted to come to the event."I really want to come to the fundraiser, Na
Nate was silent with a thin, mysterious smile on his face. He had no intention of answering since the suit he was wearing was genuine and not a fake.Besides, if he told Maria and Erica that he had bought it, they would be even more surprised that Nate could afford such an expensive item when he had no money. He was living at the feet of Erica's family, so how could a poor person like Nate afford a suit from a famous brand? That was impossible.Therefore, Nate chose to keep quiet because it was the only way to get things done quickly. Because he didn't care anymore about how Maria looked at him. Because no matter what, she would still look down on him as long as she knew he was a poor man. And in the future, if Maria knew that Nate was the president of the Bluebell Holdings company, all the bad attitudes towards him so far would disappear like the earth."Why are you silent and not answering my questions?!" Maria shouted in annoyance. "Are you deaf?! I'm talking to you, you useless pe
After a few minutes of driving his car to the busy city highway. Nate and Erica finally arrived at the place where the fundraising event was held. It was a luxurious building with a height that reached into the sky. It was in the center of a bustling and luxurious city.The building was usually used for large and luxurious events and only important people could rent the building because the cost was very expensive and not just anyone could book it.Nate stopped his car in front of the building, then an officer appeared who took over Nate's car. Nate casually handed over his car keys so that the officer took Nate's car away to be parked in a special place."The building is very fancy and a lot of important people are coming," Erica said as she walked up to the entrance. She looked up at the glittering building that was so beautiful and tall. There were many guards and attendants taking care of the event in their formal attire."Of course. This is a very important event," Nate said."As
