"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
In the morning, Erica immediately told her mother that the president of Bluebell Holdings had accepted her invitation to come to their family party. They were coming and it made Erica and her mother very happy. Upon hearing the news, Maria immediately hugged Erica very tightly. She screamed with happiness and laughter that could not escape her face.She felt so happy and proud of Erica for doing something so amazing. They had never even met and Erica could easily persuade the president of Bluebell Holdings to come to the party. Even though the President of Bluebell was a busy CEO and an important person. Who would not just randomly come to a party of people he didn't know? That proved that Erica was a special person in the eyes of the president of Bluebell Holdings."You did your best, Erica. And I'm very proud of you," Maria said as she held Erica's shoulders. She smiled broadly, looking at her only child with a proud gaze."Thank you, Moms." Erica smiled.She received another hug fr
After Nate also left the living room, he went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for them. Actually, he wanted to meet with Erica first, but he didn't want to disturb Erica and let her work properly.Nate set all the ingredients on the table before he cooked with the other servants. Even though he was the son-in-law here, he was always told to do chores and he didn't feel embarrassed or protest at all.The other servants were also still nice to him even though everyone looked down on him. And that made Nate comfortable doing all the work.While Nate was busy cooking in the kitchen, Maria suddenly came and approached him."Do you need anything, Mom?" Nate asked politely. He immediately put down his knife and wiped his dirty hands on his apron."Nothing. Are you cooking?" she asked."Yes. I'm preparing the food. It's still over half an hour before dinner. I'll prepare it quickly. If you need anything, just tell me. I'll get it ready." Nate looked at Maria who continued to stand nearby. Sh
"Are you serious about what you're saying?” asked Nancy, making sure.Erica's devious plan of sleeping with President Bluebell made her sick. She felt very upset and envious. How could she get to know Bluebell's president and seduce him? Let alone sleeping together and getting that big project. She should have done the same thing to become superior to Erica. But she had never even met Bluebell's president in person. No one had ever seen his face.Even Erica had said herself that she had never met him, so she wanted to confirm if what Anthony said was true."Yes, of course. You think about it, how could someone like her get such a big offer if she didn't sell herself to Bluebell's president? I'm sure he set her up or just offered her body for a one-night stand. And what's even more disgusting is that we don't know if she's willing to be a prostitute who's ready to sleep with him whenever he needs to just to become the CEO," Anthony said with a harsh sentence. He was fed up and angry w
Today was a party hosted by Erica's family. Officials, businessmen, clients, and close relatives all came. The party was organized with great fanfare. In the center of the hall, which penetrated directly into the backyard that had been set up as well as possible, it was as luxurious as possible so that the people who came were mesmerized by the decoration of the party. Victoria even brought in a famous chef to prepare the food during the party.In addition, she did it to make President Bluebell feel honored by what she had prepared because today, she was the main character. Everyone was looking forward to seeing President Bluebell at the party.Some businessmen had even begged Erica's family they could come to the party, just to see what President Bluebell looked like all this time. They also wanted to see if they could get a new project by approaching the Bluebell president directly. Because so far, it has been very difficult for them to interact directly with him.Nate smiled widely
Nate was furious. He couldn't control his exploding temper. Roughly, he dragged Anthony out of the hall. He took him to the toilet and pushed his body roughly to the floor. He locked the door tightly. Making sure no one would enter or come there.His eyes sharpened as he looked at Anthony who was grimacing in pain. He was slumped on the floor, struggling to stand up with his fat body."Crazy bastard! What have you done?! How dare you come with me like this andー"Before he could finish his sentence, Anthony was shocked by a punch to his face. He screamed loudly when Nate's fist hit his cheek. He felt pain and soreness there. He fell back to the floor with his body hitting hard.Then without being able to do anything, and only grimacing in pain, Nate immediately fell on him. Giving him blow after blow as he pounded Anthony's face into a bloody pulp. He didn't let Anthony breathe.Anthony continued to moan, screaming in pain as he was beaten relentlessly. His hands were busy covering his
Erica looked around for Nate. She had been missing since the argument with Anthony earlier. Just then, Nancy's boyfriend arrived with his brother. They greeted her in a friendly manner, and her mother came over, also greeting him because since long ago, Maria had been very fond of Theo who was a rich garden businessman."Oh, it's been a long time since I've seen you, Theo. How are you?" asked Maria as she shook Theo's hand. Her smile bloomed like a rose. She would love to set Erica up with Theo if she could turn back time because they looked so good together."I'm fine. How are you?" asked Theo. He smiled gently at Maria, then glanced at Erica standing next to her mother. For a long time, Theo had also secretly harbored feelings for her. But because of the news of her marriage, he no longer had the opportunity to approach her."I'm good too. You still remember Erica, right?" Maria asked."Yes, of course. How could I forget a woman as beautiful as Erica? We haven't seen each other for
