"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
"Sir...."The restaurant owner immediately bowed to Nate in front of Bella and the guards. Bella looks surprised at how polite and respectful the restaurant owner is in front of Nate. Like Nate is an important person.Nate just stares at him silently, glancing sharply at the guards and Bella in turn. He was satisfied to see the surprised expressions on their faces."Sir, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were coming. You should have told me in advance, so I could have picked you up," the restaurant owner said with a guilty look. He kept his head down as he spoke. He didn't dare look Nate in the face because he realized he had made a mistake."No problem," Nate replied casually.Bella immediately furrowed her brow in confusion at how Nate behaved towards the shop owner."You came to rent the place, right? I'll reserve all the tables for you. Or you can check and choose a place that you like," said the restaurant owner.Nate nodded his head.Bella was even more confused at how respectful and
After Nate and the restaurant owner finished talking in his room. They went out together. And were surprised to see Bella at the door of the room. Has been waiting for them to finish chatting.Nate frowned when he saw Bella's face which looked guilty at all for what happened earlier. She even smiled when she saw Nate and her boss leave the room."Bella, what are you doing here? Didn't I say I'd talk to you later?" her boss asked."Oh, sorry. I just feel bad about what happened earlier. I'm very guilty and would like to formally apologize to you and Nate," Bella said in a soft tone to her boss and Nate. She also bowed to Nate.Nate wondered why Bella immediately changed her attitude like this. Whereas earlier she still insisted that she was a thief and a nobody."Oh, really? That's good. You were wrong for treating him badly," said her boss."It was just a misunderstanding. I just wanted to tease him since we haven't seen each other in a while. But it seems like the guard thought diffe
