Nate walked over to Erica and John who were holding hands. He looked at him sharply and it was clear that he felt jealous because he saw another man touching his wife's hand. Moreover, they looked very close and made Nate want to beat him up right then and there, but he tried to restrain himself.He wanted to confirm Erica's relationship with him first and then he would decide what to do next. If he tried to interfere with their home life, then he would never let him.Nate would not hesitate to destroy anyone who tried to interfere with his life or tried to stand in his way. Because he never had mercy on anyone who made trouble with him, they would learn a painful lesson."Erica," Nate called. He looked at Erica and John in turn."Nate, I...""Who is he?" he asked in a cold tone."He's..." But Erica couldn't answer Nate's question. She was afraid that if she was honest and told Nate the truth, he would get angry and misunderstand. "He's just a friend," she replied hesitantly."Friend?
The dealership attendant left after causing an uproar. Erica had to look once again, carefully, at the name Nate written on the paper she was holding. It was clearly written, but Erica still couldn't believe what she was saying.She looked at Nate once more with a furrowed brow. How could he afford a car when he wasn't rich? He even struggled to buy whatever he wanted, and he wasn't a businessman or an office worker who could probably afford a new car after a few months of saving. As far as Erica was concerned, Nate had no savings or steady job that would allow him to accumulate enough money to buy a car."Nate, where did you get the money to buy that car?" Erica asked in a low voice. She tried not to insinuate Nate or hurt his feelings with her question."Maybe he stole the money from the bank," John chuckled. He laughed the loudest of all the people there. And Nate was annoyed that John kept putting him down in front of everyone.Everyone must have taken what John said seriously bec
Nate stared at the arriving police with a look of disbelief. It had only been a few minutes since Nancy had left and now the police were about to arrest him. It seemed like Nancy was crazy for daring to make trouble with him, with accusations that were not true. And she didn't know his true identity, so she would definitely get her comeuppance for messing with him."Are you Nate?" the policeman asked Nate with a displeased expression on his face."That's right. He's a thief, you'd better drag him to jail immediately and this time don't let him get away!" Nancy exclaimed furiously. She even pointed at Nate's face with anger on her face. It made everyone there believe that Nate had stolen company funds to buy the car he gave to his wife."How pathetic.""Looks like he really stole company funds.""Has no shame.""That's right. His wife just became the new CEO of the company. And the company is going through a crisis period, but he stole the company funds instead.""Or are they actually
"Hurry back and don't let me fire you for offending the people in power!" the senior cop shouted from the other side of the phone.The cop looked at Nate with his eyes widened in shock. Obviously, the senior cop knew what was going on there and had gotten a complaint from someone in power to scare him like that. And now he was also scared because of what his senior had said.How could this happen when he was only dealing with poor, cowardly men like him?The cop stared at Nate with a look of disbelief. His mouth was gaping and he couldn't say anything. The senior cop continued to curse and swear at him across the phone before unilaterally hanging up.The shock was still overwhelming him and he didn't know what to do."W-who are you? Why would my seniors curse and scold me like that?" the police officer asked as he continued to stare at Nate with an expression of disbelief."You don't deserve to know more about me," Nate replied haughtily. He looked at him sharply.Nate felt very satis
Nate and Erica returned to her office. Arriving at her room, Erica immediately pulled Nate's hand and invited him to sit on the sofa. She still couldn't believe that the car she saw below was Nate's gift. Moreover, she knew that Nate had no money, and it was impossible for him to buy such a luxurious car.Although she believed that Nate would not steal either company or bank funds, she was still curious about where Nate got all the money to buy a car. She also felt bad that Nate had to go through such a hard time and even went so far as to buy her a new car just because she ordered an uber every day."What's wrong, Erica? Why are you looking at me like that?" asked Nate with a furrowed brow."Nate, I wanted to ask you something," she said in a quiet voice."Ask what?""You didn't lie about the car, did you?" she asked reassuringly. "I trust that you would never steal money from anyone. I just want to know where you got all that money to buy the car."Nate smiled when he saw the worrie
Erica was busy in the office with all her work after Nate left. After a meeting with all her employees, Erica was busy talking to the organizer of a business fundraising event on the phone. She got word of the event and immediately contacted him personally so that he could come to the event."Hello, I'm Erica, CEO of Starry White Company," Erica said, introducing herself."Hello, good afternoon.""I heard that you guys are organizing a business fundraiser. Can you do me a favor so that I can come there as a guest?" asked Erica in her friendly tone.Although she felt nervous and insecure, she tried anyway and just maybe she would get the chance to come to the event."Uh, it seems like it would be difficult," she said."Why? Is it full so I can't participate in the event?""It's not that, it's just that ... Your company is going through a crisis and has gone bankrupt. And we thoughtー""But it's not now. Don't you know the news that my company has entered into a partnership with Bluebell
They got into the car with Nate driving. On the way to the restaurant, they chatted with each other. But Erica was curious where Nate would take her because she didn't know which restaurant Nate would choose for their dinner. Because Erica let Nate choose the restaurant he wanted.But, their car headed to the city center where all the luxuries were there. All the buildings, hotels, and restaurants were full of glitter and it amazed Erica, but also made her nervous because she was afraid whether she had enough money to pay for all the food prices at one of the restaurants there.Nate then took Erica to one of the VVIP restaurants. It was a special restaurant for rich people who spent their money without thinking. And not everyone can rent a place there because the price is expensive.Erica was surprised to see Nate take her there, she was worried, but she had promised to treat Nate. Erica thought, maybe Nate had never eaten at a fancy restaurant and wanted it so Erica let him have it j
Erica was frightened by Raymond's threat. Her hands were shaking but she hid them behind her back so that no one would notice. She didn't know how to act in front of Raymond because she was afraid that Raymond would do something bad to her family."You seem to have gone too far," Erica said defensively. "Why are you suddenly coming and bothering us? We never even bothered or hurt you!" Erica exclaimed. Her eyes were red with tears, but she tried to stay strong because she didn't want to be further humiliated by Nancy and Raymond."Your mistake was marrying a poor, stupid man like Nate," Nancy said, still taunting Nate. "If you were married to a rich and dignified man, you wouldn't be treated like this, Erica.""But that's none of your business...."Nate glanced at Raymond and Nancy, and remained calm while looking around the menu as if he didn't care about Raymond's existence and threats. Because he knew, whoever tried to disturb him, they would never get away with it and would be pun
