"Do you want to burn me? you fool!" Emma Foden, Nathan's mother-in-law, screamed and instantly pulled her leg out of the water that Nathan prepared for her to wash her feet.Nathan stood in front of her, staring at her blankly. "Stop staring at me. Why can't you get anything done right?" She hissed and pushed the bowl of water to the side before turning to look at him with disgust. She hated Nathan with every fiber of her being Nathan didn't respond to her words. He raised his left hand to see what the time was saying. "It's midnight," He thought.The Foden family became a tier 2 thanks to Nathan, 3 years ago, he had made them a promise to help them boom and redeem their company from bankruptcy and now, he has fulfilled his promise to them. "Argh, Show some decency by apologizing to me" Emma was furious and she kicked the bowl of hot water to Nathan but he easily avoided it. Emma gritted her teeth in frustration and clutched her fingers together to form a tight fist revealing how an
Isabella stared at the documents, feeling completely confused. "Is this a trick or what?" She asked while waving the documents in front of Nathan."I know that you want to trick me, right? Do you think I'm dumb to just sign the documents? You want to take money from me through the divorce, right?" She paused and gently strolled through the papers. "Let me see," she uttered.She was stunned after going through the documents and found out that it included no alimony payment.Emma, who was standing beside them, grabbed the papers from her daughter's hand. She forgot all about her pain and strolled through the papers, then she burst into laughter."My dear child, sign the papers immediately so that you can finally be free from this poor man who doesn't deserve to be your husband," she said without blinking her eyes. This is what she has always wanted. It felt like a slap on her face when she'd go out with her friends and they'd taunt her all because she has a poor son-in-law. Most times,
Nathan sneered at Luke's words and turned to Isabella, "For the past 3 years, I have done my best and even before we divorced, you brought your so-called boyfriend home" He said and shook his head in disbelief"What do you mean by you've done your best? You're no match for Luke. I'm sure that you're regretting now because you made the mistake of signing those papers without any compensation from me," Isabella said with her left hand on her waist. "It's not too late to beg now, swallow your pride Nathan, and beg me, don't be so ungrateful!" Isabella took a step closer to him and stared into his eyes"You're the one who made a mistake Isabella, so don't irate me, or else, I'll make sure that I teach you all a lesson," He said, coldly.Isabella was stunned at Nathan's words. He has been so calm and humble for the past 3 years. He has never talked back at her or Emma, even when they treated him like a servant. He was never angry about it. "How come he changed so much?" She thought."How
"We have been ambushed" The Taxi driver stuttered, his hands shaking on the steering wheel."Open this Goddamn door," One of the aggressive-looking gangsters hit the car. "Please, please, I have nothing. I've not made a single dime since morning," the taxi driver begged as he opened the door of the car, stepping out of the car with his hands in the air."You too, get down from the car." They pointed to Nathan, who sneered. He stepped down from the car, sweeping his gaze across the faces of the men who attacked him to see if he found their faces familiar."Nathan!!! Surprised?" A man walked from behind the gangsters and slowly approached Nathan with his head high. "No, I'm not. In fact, I thought you'd come with a thousand of your dogs that you call boys to fight with me," Nathan scoffed with his gaze on Nigel. The gangsters grumbled amongst themselves while staring at Nathan with bloodshot eyes as if they were about to rip his throat out of his body, making the taxi driver scared to
Nigel and the gangsters were terrified as they winced in pain. The only thought that crossed their minds was to leave the premises immediately, but they were surrounded. Nigel reached for the gun that fell from his hand when he got kicked the first time. He hid the gun, but he didn't have the balls to shoot anyone with it."My sister is the CEO of Foden Group and her boyfriend is Luke! If you hurt me, you'll regret it," Nigel shouted, but she ignored him. Nigel has never been in a situation like this before, he always had the upper hand, and most especially, he underestimated Nathan. He thought beating him up would just be a piece of cake.Nigel decided to risk his life by pulling the trigger on Nathan. He slowly tried bringing the gun from where he hid it."What's that you're hiding?" One of the hefty men in a black suit asked the second he saw him. Nigel didn't respond, his ego didn't get him to beg for them to let him go. "What's that you're hiding?" He asked again, but Nigel didn
Before Emma or Isabella could mention another word, Nathan ended the call and slid his phone into his back pocket.After ending the call, he turned to Lily who was standing beside him, and asked, "You haven't told me the reason why you chose to find me." A faint smile appeared on Lily's face then it instantly vanished after seeing the stern look on Nathan's face, "I need your help" she replied, causing Nathan to arch an eyebrow"Please come with me to the car," she said and Nathan reluctantly got into the car with her, "The Carbin mansion" Lily instructed the driver and he nodded in acknowledgment"Where are we going?" Nathan asked, with a frown on his face."The Carbin's family mansion?" she replied "No! Why are we going there?" He rephrased the question. Lily turned to him and heaved a long sigh before saying, "My family is in a big mess Nathan and we need your help," She continued, "The Lord of the Carbin family took our drugs and instead of getting better, he got worse and we n
"What's happening to my father?""What's wrong?" Everyone in the room began to panic, except Nathan. He kept his eyes on the Carbin's Lord."Everyone, calm down," He yelled just to get their attention, "Mr. Carbin will be fine," Nathan added. He turned to look at the faces of everyone in the room. He scoffed after sewing the expression on the doctor's face."Please, I don't want to lose my husband. Tell me what we need to do," Mrs. Carbin begged. Nathan didn't utter a word. He noticed the terrified look on Isabella's face before he took a few steps closer to the Lord, who was unconscious on the bed."He was poisoned," Nathan said as he took out a powder from his pocket. This spec powder can cure any poison in the world and it was invented by Nathan. He's the only one who knows its recipe. In the black market, one gram of the powder is worth half a million. People usually call it a magic drug because it works like magic.The room became pin-drop silent and everyone watched Nathan. No o
"No... no... no, I honestly wasn't aware of the poison," Doctor Tony stuttered, but no one listened to him"Save that crap for someone else! We thought that you were an expert, you're just a quack doctor and if not for this young gentleman, then my father would have been dead by now all because of your wrong medication," The first son of the family said in a rage. He was upset and couldn't imagine what would have happened if his father had died all because of that careless act."I'm sorry sir, I wasn't aware of the poison, it seems that it was hidden, please forgive me for my carelessness," the doctor begged"Okay, it's understandable that you're not good enough to save my father but then you tried to stop Nathan from curing my father all because you wanted to save your dignity," He continued with a frown on his face, "That's unacceptable"He turned to Nathan feeling grateful, "Thank you, Nathan, Even after we listened to this hypocrite and stopped you from giving your medicine to my
